I came here for a gel manicure after seeing decent reviews, and my experience was good. The salon itself is clean and well-maintained, which I appreciated. My nail tech was polite and the gel application was neat, the gel color selection is good and the manicure has held up so far, it's been 3 weeks. Pricing felt fair for the area. Overall, a pleasant experience. read more

Firstly, I have to say that I truly LOVE this nail salon!!! I am so embarrassed that I have never done a review for this salon because I have been a very long time customer like about 10 years. My apologies for this Lisa!!! This quality salon is beautiful, bright and clean. Lisa, who takes care of my nails does it with expertise, artistry and care. I normally have a gel mani with a French tip and it costs me $40 which is pretty average and my pedicure's are so comforting with a hot rocks massage for about $30 and $35 if you want an additional paraffin treatment. A little self care is a must!!! Tina and Van are the other two nail people there and they are so welcoming and just as experienced and caring as Lisa. This Salon has my heart and I really can't say enough wonderful things about this salon. read more

Glamorous Nail Salon is fantastic! Every time I visit my family in Sunnyvale, we go to Glamorous Nail Salon for pedicures. The owner Tina is very kind and helpful every time we visit. Thank you for always taking great care of us! read more

I went to Glamorous nail salon a few times when I was pregnant and I always enjoyed it. I didn't go for 10 months because I was busy with baby, but Lisa still recognized me and asked me how the baby was. Staff are very kind and thoughtful. They have also always patiently followed my requests. I can always relax and enjoy my time here. Thank you! read more

Glamorous Nail Salon - Dip powder manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I've been going here for my nails ever since I moved to the area and it's been a great experience each time. Two ladies work there Lisa and Trina and they are very sweet and professional. Trina has been doing my nails and she always add small touches when she does my nails which I appreciate. Please keep in mind that they are not a chatty bunch of ladies which may be due to a language barrier. But that's ok, when you come here you can just sit back and watch a great cooking show on the television or just close your eyes, zone out and take a break from life for a second. Also, keep in mind when you do call to make a reservation their time is limited especially on weekends as it's just the 2 of them working there and they may not have availability. Week days are more likely to get you an appointment. Another thing to note is that there usually aren't many people inside which is very nice and COVID friendly. You feel like you're the only one catered to inside the salon especially during the week which I appreciate. There is PLENTY of parking so you don't need to worry about that! So all in all, This is not 5 star service but they do get 5 stars for being professional, hard workers, competent at their job, ambiance is nice and quiet, and a great choice of colors to choose from too. Just don't expect any major conversation when you come but don't be afraid to speak up of what you want/like as they are great listeners and try to meet the clients needs. Highly recommend if you're in need of a mani/pedi! read more

I m the neighborhood so I m Thinking to try it out , but sorry for this , I don't like the way when the lady who is did my nail gossip to other lady and that lady looked at me look like want kill me , what I did? I just want pick a color I that like , no busy no wait she still so rush and looks not happy to serve me ! And the end the result I m not Satisfying, won't be back ! I m the business owner I know how is service so important ! So good luck ! read more

I have tried to give this nail salon a chance since it is so close to my home, but every time I come here, I am disappointed. The ladies working here are not the friendliest and my nails never turn out the way I want them. read more

I got yelled at today by Lisa because another customer was asking about my color which she admired and requested to be applied on her toenails. Lisa was working on my nails and when I was about to show the other customer my nails, she yelled that I could do it when she's done. She and the other worker there discouraged the lady from choosing the same color as I chose because it would not go with her skin color. Also, they said that they only had one set of that color and that since I was using it, then it would not be possible for her to use it at that time. I asked the lady if she really wanted that color for her nails and she said yes but Lisa and her coworker discouraged her from going for the color she wanted. I told her that if she really wants it then she should insist on it. Upon hearing that, Lisa yelled "Ok if you want it then you can have it after." I thought my overall experience today was really awful. Those two workers are anything but welcoming and accommodating. They talk about you loudly in their language which is really rude. Needless to say, I wouldn't be going back to this place. Not a lot of colors to choose from anyway. read more

Ty to Lisa for doing my nails!! It was my second time getting acrylics and she did them so well :) I prefer short nails and she cut them down to the perfect size and suggested a better design for the size and shape that I wanted, and always kept making sure that I liked how it looked. I was a little late for my appointment so at first it felt a bit rushed, but she did a great job still and I definitely recommend. read more

Because of the field of work/school I am in, I can rarely (more like never) get artificial nails done anymore. Since it's been years that I have gotten artificial nails, I was overly excited to be pampered and have them done today. I was impressed by the cleanliness of this salon and how organized things were. It reminded me of QT nails in Santa Clara since they also have those nice, comfortable pedi chairs. However, I am convinced that the $ for mediocore nails are totally not worth it. Nothing glamorous about this salon at all. Probably will not be back. Pros: -Clean -Comfortable and nice looking Pedicure chairs -Fast service (with appt.) -Takes plastic -Pedicure includes hot stone & a hot-cool purple cream foot/leg massage, & your feet dipped in paraffin wax inside a plastic wrap. -Fast service (was able to get mani & pedi same time to get out of there faster) -Tips can be put on your Credit Card Cons: -Lack of communication (Lady doing my pedi was just using random colors on my flower design $5 extra btw. No, I did not want purple & green barney colors on my French tipped toe. She was nice enough to do it over though.) -Super expensive for not so GLAMOROUS nails -They don't have 3D nail art designs (flower, bow, gems, etc.) -Regular scissors children can use were used to cut my acrylic nails instead of the standard nail cutter made for artifical nails -Air dry for my pedi, no dryer machine -Customer service was just sucky this morning read more

Have been going here to get a mani/pedi for years and they do a great job! Lisa & her team are efficient & have a good routine so I know what to expect with no drama. Can usually get an appt when I want it /same day. Mellow atmosphere.... read more

Very clean nail salon with updated machines, chairs, environment. Very nice ladies working in there. They don't talk your ear off, nor do they ignore you (or talk crap). They were very patient with some slightly annoying clients in there, asking for this and that. This was my first time there and won't be my last. Offered me bottled water and candy. Thank you, Iknew, for taking good care of me. My acrylic fill was $25, about the average for Sunnyvale. read more

I guess this place is a hit or a miss depending on who you get. I found out that KIM is the one you want to go to for everything. She is great at waxing, and she really puts time into getting those stray hairs. Plus she really puts elbow grease into your pedicure scrubs, so your feet is nice and soft. This other girl with long straight hair I don't know her name... did a really great job with my daughter as well. The only thing is their designs are hella small. read more

Came here with my 2 coworkers. Made an appointment the day before going in and when we got there, the salon was empty! Perfect for us because we snagged all 3 of the ladies that were working that evening. This place is very clean and had a good amount of nail polish to select from. I had an amazing time. Lisa did an awesome job on my pedicure. Very gentle and was talkative compared to the other ladies that were working on my coworkers. That's ok- we were there to relax and unwind. There are a few TVs so you can catch up on some news or I'm sure you can change the channel to your preference. This salon offers a lot of services- from mani/pedi to waxes and facials. I got the executive pedi for $25 which includes a hot stone massage and warm paraffin wax. We were also offered little bottles of water. I'm a fan! read more

$25 pedicure which includes paraffin wax, warm lotion leg massage, and hot stone foot massage. Kim did an amazing job. She really put some elbow grease in exfoliating my feet with that pumice. Her massages were hard in pressure, deep, and good quality. She was really detailed in getting all the dead skin off and cutting around my cuticles without hurting me. My polish looks great too. The person who sat next to me got a $45 pedicure, which I snuck a peek at. They put some lavender and herbs in her spa tub, which smelled floral and wonderfully fresh. They even gave her a tiny bottle of water, bag of Fritos, and Starbucks Frappuccino bottled drink. She was nice and gave me her Frap. Next time, I'm getting what she got! Request Kim for a pedicure. She was awesome. This place was pretty awesome! That might have been the best pedicure I have ever had. read more

Got a mani/ pedi here and my experience was good. The hot stone massage on my legs was wonderful and my toes ended up looking really cute with a simple polish, but my manicure was a bit sloppy. I had a lot of extra polish around the edge of 4 nails and it smeared after 45 minutes (yes, 45 minutes) of dry-time, so that was frustrating. The furniture in the store was super cute and old fashioned, and the service was great. I would just strongly recommend a pedi over a mani here any day. read more

Took my wife there last week to make up her nails and did not make a mistake cuse they are affordable and professional, the reason for four star is cuse you have to wait long time to get served. Michelle is professional and quick. Customer service is also nice and air conditioning was the live saver. Guys keep like that but hire more people to cut those line down. Thanks from Jennifer :) read more

Glamorous Nail Salon - That is what Michelle did, bravo - Nail Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

The standard pedicure includes wax with a hot stone massage it's the best $25 you'll ever spend for the longest 30 minutes. The ladies are sweet and don't talk your ear off. -1 star due to the basic limited colors I'm not into reds & that was the majority of the colors. read more

I had a pleasant experience here. I guess it is depend on who you go to. Kim was excellent. She was very skillful and paid attention to the littlest detail. She took her time and made my nails look perfect. And the gel lasted a pretty long time for me. Always get Kim when you go here. Someone else did my pedicures and she was not that great. Call in to make an appt. She is pretty booked. read more

Came in at 6 after scheduling an appointment over the phone. Had me waiting till 6:17 before someone asked me to pick a color. Got me in the chair to soak my toes at 6:20. 6:25 - I gave up on waiting. Looks like a nice place. I'm just not sure about their scheduling abilities and/or integrity. read more

Glamorous Nail Salon - Dermatologica, anyone?! - Nail Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

If you want to end up bleeding, feeling super painful with your pedicure, this is a great place to have your nails done! I planned to party at Vegas, so before that, I want to make sure my nails are done. Called this place since all other great review nail places are full, and it has great review on yelp. Glad we have two spots available at 5:30. The place looks nice. However, when we got there, no one greets us, and they don't seem to care. My girl friend and I patiently waited for almost 30 min and finally until I started to show my impatience, they started to serve our feet to the hot water. I wanted to do gel, so I was checking out this new product with different colors. The woman who serviced me is around her mid 40s, not very friendly, and started to complain something to her coworker. Her coworker said to me that I'll get the colors messed up by take the polishes out from the paper boxes. I don't feel very happy about it, but whatever. But my nightmare just began. She use the rough stone to harshly scrub my feet. With my 10 years pedicure experience, I felt something is wrong. Super painful!!!! When she finally stops, I check my feet, and both of them are BLEEDING!!!!!! I felt horrible, and it was super unsanitary!!!! My blood was everywhere on the towels!!!! My poor skin were red and coming off from my heel:( I was screaming out of pain, so she took some balm and apply on it with her finger with no gloves on. I was super pissed, but since I don't want to make my girl friend very uneasy since we don't know each other well enough. I tried to not get crazy. The woman started to continue her service even though I refused to get wax around my poor feet. I just wanted to get out of the place!!!!!! My mood was totally ruined and now I have both feet wounded for my Vegas trip thanks to the salon!!!!!! Apparently she's either totally not professional or the tool was horrible that cut both of my feet!!!!!!!! They even still charged me full price!!!! All I can do is to share my horrible story and hope no one else will experience what I have been through! read more

I really hate writing bad reviews. Come to think of it. I never have until now, and I'm actually really really bummed about it. This place is not somewhere I would recommend anyone. Especially for those that are getting shellacs done. ;( taking off old shellacs by dunking all your fingers into acetone?! Filing your nail bed so thin that your nail rips?! And then blames it on you saying it was already like that.?! Sigh... That's not even half of it. This is the second time I've been here. The first time was just as bad but I wanted to give them another chance because I thought it was just that "one lady" (sorry, don't know her name) but no, I was wrong again. Sorry to say, I will not be coming back here again ;( read more

I am a perfectionist, I guess Kim is too. I've been coming to Glamorous Nail for about a year, and since I had a chance to experience Kim's service I have not gone elsewhere. Her job is outstanding for both pedicure and manicure. My feet require extra care since I am a dancer and my nails need to look net since I work with hands. Kim listens to my wishes and asks before making any changes. She charges for acrylic manicure $40 (French manicure) and $48 for pedicure ( shellac ).. worth every penny. Thank you Kim read more

Been here several times and over all is A-OK. They are very clean, they will get you in right away and they not as rude as other places where you know the manicurist are talking about you right in front of you; of course in their language for you not to understand. I was convinced they were a 3-star rating place until just recently that changed my mind. I met Lisa and my world changed! I feel like I found a unicorn or a 4 leaf clover!! She did not rush my pedicure, she was meticulous and even asked more than the usual questions. For example: Is this too hard or too cold, does it hurt when I cut here, etc. The best part of it all, I have had an ingrown nail for the last 4 years. Every place I went they just ignored my big fat ingrown nail and painted over it. Lisa, OH Lisa.. she looked at me and said Im going to dig it out. While it was a bit painful she did an amazing job. I mean she took out chucks of nail that where deep in my skin. She did an amazing job from start to finish. I would see some of the other pedicurist start and finish and I was still enjoying my pedicure. Tips -Ask for Lisa -They don't accept AMEX -Don't go on peak hours Saturday between 10am -3pm -Call for an appointment but most of the time they will take you in right away. read more

My co-workers decided it was time for some down time and happy feet were part of that, so we found this place via yelp. They offer several different types of pedicure/manicures. After pondering for awhile, I decided to go all out with the Chocolate Elegance. Oh yeah! Provided with the package was a Frappuccino drink from Starbucks, bottled water, and a bag of chips. They filled my tub with sweet smelling chocolate goodness. Very relaxing! It includes 2 scrubs (which were awesome) and a moisturizing mask. Along with a 15 minute massage, hot stone massage, and paraffin wax treatment. All for under $60. Amazing I tell you! My polish was done perfectly and I walked out feeling woozy. (super relaxed). Took about an hour and was worth every penny. I HIGHLY recommend this place. They take walk-ins, but I would make an appointment just to be safe. This is not a cheap place where they push as many people as they can through. It's relaxing and enjoyable. Like a spa. This is a treat, and they still have excellent prices. So hooray! read more

Avoid. The pedicures are painful and even manicures are mediocre and the technicians gossip amongst themselves which is quite irritating. On the positive note, they have nice big chairs and a wide array of colors. But their customer service is quite sour. read more

I used in a building down the street and I thought I'd try this nail place since it was close by. After my first visit, it has been my go-to place for nails. The manicure is quick, but very thorough. You have many different manicures to choose from; I've only tried the regular "executive" manicure as well as the hot oil manicure. They cut your cuticles carefully and take their time with it and they give you a massage with warm lotion. I get very picky when it comes to my french manicures because I like my white pretty thin. They do their usual band but when I ask them to make it thinner, they always do a perfect job. There are a variety of pedicures to choose from as well, but I've only gotten the regular one. Your feet are soaked in water with some exfoliating crystals in the water. After the pedicure, they leave your feet in some paraffin wax while giving your legs a massage with some warm lotion followed by a hot stone massage. Once again, they always do as I ask with the french tips on my toes. The variety of manicures and pedicures get a little pricey as you choose something fancier like the citrus or lavender pedicure, but I assure you it will be worth your while. Not only that, but they can do bridal parties and other things! I would suggest making an appointment because they tend to get busy. Shows how good they are ;) read more

Decided on a whim to get my nails done. Walked in on the weekend and waited about 10 minutes for a manicure ($15). I beat the rush because once I was seated, more and more people came in and the salon had to turn people away, telling them all to return at 5PM. The manicure was well done and whomever did it was efficient. I've had my nails done for about a week and the paint has hardly chipped. I think next time I'll try a pedicure ($25) as most people wanted that service. They mostly have OPI nail colors and some other lesser known nail color brands. There are about 4 manicure tables and maybe 5 pedicure stations? read more

I cannot give this place any higher of a rating based on the tools they used. I've been on this trying out new nail salons tip for a while now and only one place have I been to doesn't use the electric buffer tool to scrap off your gel nail polish. For people who get their nails done on the reg, using this tool to take of your nail polish is the wrong way. You're suppose to foil them with cotton and acetone first, let them sit for a bit and then remove them with a regular flat round ended tool (sorry I don't know the exact names of these). For those who know what I'm talking about, if you constantly get your nails buffered they start to thin out your real nails and that is a NO NO! I am feeling my nails right now and two of them are hurting, is that normal.... I don't think so. Second, I decided to get the overlay, which is powder first then gel on the top. She didn't file my nails until after the powder was put on which made them a little crooked and all the tools she used came straight from her front drawer, which means they were not sanitized and that is my other NO NO! For a $40 overlay, not even a manicare was done, I think I'll take my money elsewhere. Don't be fooled by the nice look of pedicare chairs. read more

Its the cleanest salon around, but the service here is friendly and with quality. If you want a spotless salon,this is the place to go. Kim was awesome.She does a gr8 job.Also got my legs waxed and she did them to perfection.I did not have any appointment but as it was a weekday, they were gracious and seated me in less than 5 minutes.. The ladies were kind and laughed a lot, and really took their time massaging my feet and hands. Glad to see employees offer their services with integrity. Definitely coming back.This is going to be my goto nail salon. read more

I started coming here because of a family member's recommendation. We go here pretty regularly (unless, I want to try another salon) and we always get the same treatment: excellent! We make appointments every time we go because they're always busy. They take their time on your nails and give you recommendation on which colors look best or how short or long to keep your nails. I LOVE LOVE LOVE, that they use brand new tools for every person. The salon overall is clean and their prices are good for what you get ($25 pedi includes a parafin wax treatment + hot stones). They have an awesome selection of different styles of manicures and pedicures. They take their time when you are there and don't rush when there's a client waiting. They treat you like you've been a long time customer no matter what! read more

This is my favorite type of nail salon. Super affordable prices ($35 gel manicure, $30 pedicure), really nice people, and a great job on my nails! Lisa and Tina were great. You could tell this is the type of place where regulars come back and if I'm back in the area I will definitely be one of those people. read more

Very nice, friendly salon. Reasonable price of $30 for pedicure, including hot stone massage. Good massage, too! Easy to make appointments. Lots of parking. I've been twice and will return. read more

This place was awesome! They took me in last minute before they closed and when I wanted to do a manicure and pedicure, they had one person do my toes and another do my hands. I loved choosing which package I wanted and they were very good at making sure I was relaxed. It has a beautiful interior and lots of comfy pillows. They even gave me a bottle of water to sip on while I was being pampered! The smells in the things they use in the water to soak were AMAZING. I got my first shellac manicure done and the attention to detail to be sure it was done right was perfect. Very amazing experience, and I will be back :) read more

I've been coming here since they opened about 10 years ago. Kim has been doing my nails for years, she is excellent at what she does.

I had a great experience here, it was my first time and I saw iknew. She did my nails exactly how I wanted them and she was fast but very precise and focused. I will definitely be coming here again. Also got the shellac gel at a reasonable price. read more

I was looking around for a new salon by where I live and I stumbled upon this place. I believe that the staff is friendly, they offer you food and drink which is great, but I feel like they are a bit pricey. I walked in hoping to just get a simple pedicure and manicure but the staff kept on suggesting that I should get a higher package and I did. Other than that it was a good experience. I did go back recently and had gotten a fill on my gel nails and they were done perfectly. The lady who did them, which I don't remember her name was very nice and she was very gentle. I will be going back for any gel nails in the future! read more

Came on a busy Friday afternoon to get my nails done for an engagement photo shoot. It was extremely busy -- guess everyone wants their nails done before the big weekend, right? The ladies were super quick and skillful. Not much talking, which is fine by me. They were slammed, so the lady who gave me my pedicure eventually left to do someone's gellac manicure, and I waited for a bit for another lady named Cindy to finish with her client and then do my manicure. No big deal though since I wasn't in a hurry. $40 for the most basic mani and pedi (which includes wax, hot stones, and a brief massage). The pedi was great and the mani was good too (top coat didn't cover some spots, but it didn't chip for 4 days, so I can't complain!). Best part? They didn't cut my cuticles too deep and make me bleed (which is what happened at my last manicure and what I was most worried about since no one wants scabs in their engagement photos!). Cindy did an excellent job in that aspect. No discomfort at all! Chairs were comfy and they offer you a mini bottle of water. Overall a good experience. Will probably come back as it is so close to where I live. read more

Not a big fan of this place. I have been here a few times mostly for convenience but today I noticed my nails were not evenly top-coated. Some of my nails ended up matte. I don't think I will go back again. read more

WOWEE, WOW, WOW!!!! I've only been to 3 nail salons in my life, but they've all been relatively the same. Some great, some not so great. But this place... wow! I didn't know nail salons could be like this! It is a little on the pricier side, but with good reason and it's totally worth it! The other nail salon's I've been to, they all look pretty much the same. White walls, simple decorum, pretty sterile looking. But this one had a very modern and upscale look to it (at least in my opinion). They have a big screen TV on the wall playing ABC. Which is SO nice to watch something I can understand instead of the constant Asian soap operas I usually see running in the background that I would love to understand, but can't. (Nothing against Asian programming, it would just be nice to have something I can understand running in the background). The ladies there are very friendly and VERY hygienic! They all wear surgical masks and surgical gloves. At first you think it's kind of hospitalish, but then once you think about it, hospitals are safe and clean so then I just correlated it with that. I came here for a pedicure so the rest of the review is on that portion. You have a choice of I think 4 or 5 different pedicures to get (I forget the exact number). Each has different scents and bath salts and what not to wash your feet in. I chose something called Peppermint Pedicure (or something to that effect). The water was nice and warm. The pedicure seats are huge and spacious, but do be aware that they're not the massager chairs. Just really big cushy chairs with pillows. I'm fine with it not being the massager chairs though, because I don't find them to be very comfortable at all. Anyway, The lady I had was very gentle with my feet. The salts felt interesting (I've never had a salt foot bath before). She also gave me a hot rock massage and put my feet in paraffin wax which I LOVED. As far as my polish for the pedicure goes, I always ask for crazy colors and what not that I usually have to fight for it. At many salons they don't get what I'm asking for or they plain just don't want to do it because they don't agree with my color choices. It gets very annoying. But here, she understood exactly what I was asking for and she was happy to do it! It was great to not have to fight for it. She was a very smooth and clean worker and my toes came out looking FABULOUS! She did cut my nails a little short, but that's just my own personal taste. She did really well and it's truly the best pedicure I've ever had! I will definitely be coming here again! In total, the pedicure with the 2 bath salts, hot rock massage, paraffin wax, polish, and flower design, came out to $60. While I don't exactly have money to burn, I don't think that was a bad price at all for everything that I had done! I can't wait till I get paid to go and try a Manicure there! So, like I said. This place is great! Very luxurious feeling and very great service! Highly recommended! read more
