Ana C.

Fast service and decently priced . My nail tech was nice and took her time. I paid $45 for a gel manicure which seems reasonable to me

Perfect for St Patty's in Dublin, Ireland

Amy S.

I went into Gloss on a whim before my trip to Ireland for St. Patty's Day this year and had a wonderful spa pedicure with hot wax treatment and a major foot massage. It was the perfect send-off before my 2 week vacation and the polish lasted (unchipped) until just a couple of weeks ago - and I did regular polish; not gel! The nail pro was very friendly while she worked and I enjoyed the massage chair as I relaxed. The salon is big and bright with lots of natural light and it's very clean inside. It was a wonderful treat to myself and I'm definitely overdue for a return visit.

i've gone to this place about 5 times now and it's honesty not worth your money at all but i still just because it's walking distance for me. i got my nails done again a couple days ago and they look like shit. the lady who did them didn't file them straight and i asked her to please fix and she did the bare minimum and moved on which lead to me fixing my nails at home enough tho i paid 60. the nails look very chucky too that's not the problem. my nails have a stain that looks like a possible infection. i've scrubbed my nails multiple times to make sure it's not just dirty but there is something seriously wrong with either the nail polish they used or they gave me a infection. needless to say i will not be going back after this experience

Vicki is the best nail tech in my opinion. Vivian the owner is absolutely the kindest. Never regret a mani with Vicki.

DIP POWDER . 3 1/2 WEEKS RETENTION. NO CRACKS.

Perfection every single time. I love my nails !! I can't stop looking at them. They always get me right

First time having the art, Celine recommended it

Thank you Gloss Nails Spa for letting me in at 4:30pm! -Closing at 5pm. Celine did a great job, she is very nice and sweet. I love her! I recommend this place, everyone is sweet and it's just relaxing to be here. I never get so excited to get my nails done, but this place changed it

I went on Valentine's Day for the first time in years! They were super nice and friendly. I believe the nail techs name was Tee? She was super precise and did a great job! I will for she be coming back.

I came on a Saturday afternoon close to 3. No appointment, just walked over from Heavenly Bistro, and I asked if they had availability for a manicure and pedicure. The place was packed, and the owner first said she couldn't squeeze me in, which I understood since I was a walk in. But then I asked her if I could just get a pedicure. That sealed my fate . She smiled and told me that would work and to check back at 4. I told her I'd wait right in front, went to the 7/11 for cash, and came back. I waited and ended up having some great conversations with other ladies who were waiting to be seen, too. I even made new connections! Started reading my book then the next thing I know, I was being called for my deluxe pedicure. Itwaseverythingya girl needed on this Saturday, okay?! The woman who blessed my sad, sad, in dire need of some TLC toes, took her time and was so intentional with me. From my scrub to massage to painting and more. It was exactly what I needed. The prices are going up March 1, but this salon is worth it. I'm sorry that others had not so good experiences, but I can't say the same for myself. From being accommodated after walking in to the ambience to the service, I will be making this my new nail home for sure.

Amanda F.

I think it depends on who helps you, because my pedicure turned out lovely, but manicure made me come home and cry. I kept telling the technician as we went along, I don't think this feels right, there's some gel under my nail and I can feel it. She insisted it was fine, but I could see the problem clear as a bell, and eventually just picked up the tool and removed the goop myself. It's a very sloppy, gloopy gel manicure, and I just wanted it to be over so I could leave. It's not neat, some nails aren't painted all the way, it's very thick and uneven - honestly it looks like I painted my nails myself with two left hands.

Example of how crooked the pinky nail is

Horrible experience I left and my pinky nail was extremely crooked returned the next day after calling in advance and they would not replace the nail only file it (which I did at home). Will never be returning here

Vicky is my hero! Two reasons: 1. She did my SNS nails two weeks ago and they were perfect and beautiful with 5 different colors. 2. I completely broke my nail (my fault totally) and she took me in at 655pm on a Friday night and completely saved me, even redoing the top coat on all of the other nails just because she's kind.

No complaints! Friendly staff, efficient service. Clean, relaxing salon with good massage chairs. Vivian did my brows($10) and did an excellent job. Aleesa did my shellac manicure ($25) and an amazing job she did. Not sure of the gal that did my pedicure ($20) but that was good too. I'll definitely be a regular returning customer. Lots of colors to choose from. They offers private party packages as well! Aleesa or Elle is the go to for manicures. Aleesa is off on Wednesday and Aleesa only works Sunday and Mondays. P.S.

I went with a friend as a drop-in and they were very friendly and had ability to take us both right away. My friend had a mani, I had a acrylic fill and gel paint. The fill took a very long time, but I realized that was the case because the technician was being meticulous, even correcting some ridges and sloppy work by another salon. I keep my nails relatively short (just using acrylics while I grow out my natural nail), and she definitely understood the request for natural v sensational. I left with a couple nics around my nail bed from the grinding tool, but that'll happen every once in a while if you choose the acrylic route, and if they are really trying to taper the acrylic to the nail bed. The tech was friendly, the price was fair, and the end product looked great. read more

I have had a few pedicures at Gloss and I can truly say that I am a satisfied customer. This is a clean nail shop. The tools that will be used for your pedicure is in a sealed, sanitized bag. They open the tools in front of you so that you know they are new tools and not the same ones that were used on their previous client. Each time I have gotten a pedicure at Gloss, I have always had a different person, but they all have been good and very friendly! Today Trang did my pedicure and I absolutely love her (she is def my go to person now at Gloss). Trang took her time (which is a huge pro) and was very gentle (she didn't dig the tools into my toes or cut me). She was friendly all through my pedicure and not just towards the end to get a big tip (I'm sure a lot of people may have experienced this). I would recommend Gloss to anyone. I highly recommend making an appointment because they tend to get busy. Another pro, when I make an appointment for 6 PM, they actually do my pedicure at 6 PM. Not like some places, you make an appointment for 6 PM, but they don't start your pedicure until 6:45 PM. read more

I have NEVER taken the time to write a review on Yelp to my recollection. NEVER. I work in the service industry and I understand the challenges of COVID. Each time I come to this shop-no matter when-(empty or full)--they look around and behave like it's a problem. Today, I asked directly. It's 2pm. Hours before they close. While I have tried my best to give allowances and not think about my skin as a reason--and avoid what I sensed deep down--but today I was told "maybe you're just sensitive". WHAT?!!!

This is a decent, no-frills salon. I made an appointment for my lunch break hoping to be see right at 12, apparently I wasn't the only one with that idea. It was packed for a Wednesday afternoon but service was quick. I was quickly seated. There aren't any bubbles for the pedi so your feet just soak in warm water which was different for me. The pedicure was great. It took about half an hour and it was amazing. The foot massage was very nice, I must say. The woman helping me spent plenty of time on each foot, I was actually surprised. The massage felt SO GOOD. She was very thorough with absolutely everything and she didn't rush her work. The employees were all very friendly. If I need a pedicure on my lunch break again I'll be sure to come here. Unfortunately I didn't have time to get my gel mani too- but I'll be back! read more

12/1/16 I never had to wait ... I love Vivian for my nails and Cindy for my pedi. Thanks for always doing such an awesome job. My nail guy decided to leave the country without notifying me ... Ugh! So I'm scrambling to find someone ASAP - cause a girl can't walk around with unattended hands. I'm pretty lay back - but I know what I want and how it's supposed to be done. I visited Gloss Nails with a referral to Vivian. She was friendly but not nosy. I like that... A lot. The shop was like any typical salon on the north end of WC. Nothing fancy but competitive pricing for the services. She ran 30 minutes behind. That's why I gave it 4 stars ... I was starting to wonder if it's worth it. Although I personally think it's rude to have customers with appointments wait - it's pretty normal for these shops. I finally got in the chair and told/ showed her what I'd like done. 30 minutes later - Beautifully done nails. I was so glad I waited and not turned into the impatient snooty Queen B WC is known to have... Lol! Vivian did an amazing job. She is my new person. read more

After getting disconnected multiple times, I called back and asked to speak with the Pharmacy…read moreManager. I was told the Pharmacy Manager wasn't available, so I asked to speak with any manager. The manager told me he thinks the Pharmacy Manager's name was "Lau" (he spelled it) and that the pharmacist answering the phones might be "Shemma." I told him that I had already been disconnected multiple times and was just trying to get my prescription. The manager wasn't rude, but it didn't really feel like I was talking to someone who was concerned about fixing the issue. I expected a little more urgency since why are the pharmacy staff acting like they answering calls and disconnecting them on "accident". Instead, the only solution offered was to transfer me back to the pharmacy and let them know I was waiting on the phone. When someone answered, I asked if her name was Shemma. She immediately responded, "Nope," and transferred me. I was connected to Shemma. I realized she wasn't the same person that had disconnected my earlier calls because her voice sounded different from the employee who had answered before. Since Shemma stayed on the line, I decided to ask about my medication and a possible prescription transfer between Walgreens locations. I explained that my regular Walgreens told me that if this location had the medication in stock, they could request the prescription transfer. Shemma told me, "No, I can't do that. Call that Walgreens to transfer it." This completely conflicted with what I had already been told, and I felt like I was being talked over. My biggest concern is still the employee who initially answered the phone. After one of the disconnections, I called back and asked for her name first because I wanted to know who was disconnecting the calls. I figured if the call got disconnected again, at least I would know who I had spoken with. When I asked for her name, she responded, "Sure," and the call was disconnected. This is another reason I strongly recommend asking for the employee's name at the beginning of the call. I feel like people are less tough when they know you know who they are. If you need to follow up, file a complaint, or reference a specific interaction, having the employee's name can make that process a lot easier. With that being said, I don't need my prescription to be filled here anymore. Goodluck to ya if you have to call this pharmacy.

Unless you want to wait 1-2hrs to get your prescriptions and 30min to check out in the front. The drive thru is not not open which makes it more difficult to get your meds. Not only that but there is one lady that looks Samoan helps one person and then goes and gets distracted for 10 min comes back helps again and goes off again. This is BS customer service sucks at this store. Not to mention almost everything is locked up so if you wanted to get something from nail clippers or nails stuff or make up or electrical toothbrush heads you must wait till someone hears the ring on the over head and comes to you after you waiting that long. Walgreens or to any store if you have these stuff locked up be sure to schedule people that can come and open these locks when customers need them. If not then leave them unlocked you wanted them secure but now paying customers are getting frustrated that we have to wait multiple times to get something at this store. Will we go back to this store sorry but no I just switched my stuff back to another location at a better place that does value customers and does want to make sales.

I reported to the "manager" in the store (I reported first to the cashier who told me to talk to the manager) and he couldn't care less. It was like I was bugging him. I think most people go here for meds, it doesn't appear to be stocked well. The website said they had my shampoo but they didn't. They also have half the store under glass. That's a "I won't be back" thing for me. No one likes having to wait ten minutes to get the glass opened. If people are stealing stuff then get security. I'm honestly a well built man but I hate coming here because of the riff raff surrounding the place. There are other options.

They claim it's an insurance issue, but my child's insurance hasn't changed in years. Then they lie and say they're out of stock. Which is mostly untrue. There was an incident when I requested to refill a prescription a week in advance. They sent me a text claiming it was out of stock. I had a feeling that it was bs so I drove to the pharmacy and spoke with their staff in-person. Guess what? The prescription that they claimed that was "out of stock" was in fact in stock. The tech told me that I just needed to wait 10 minutes. I had to explain to the tech the importance of my child's medication being filled on time, given that a missed dose can cause a life-threatening issue. About a month ago, I was in line inquiring on my child's prescription. There was another customer standing super close behind me while I was giving the tech very personal information. The staff did not say anything to the customer standing very close to me. There I was disclosing personal medical information not realizing that the customer was near me the whole time. (They should check the cameras; I can't make this up!) I only became aware that the man was standing extremely close to me because another customer in line pointed it out and told him to step back. There is no way that pharmacy tech helping me did not notice him. HIPAA VIOLATION! Anyway, if I could give this pharmacy zero stars I would.

Competition is real, and honestly, that's great for customers. That said, this store feels like it may have passed its prime a bit. They still carry the basics (and that's important), but the fresh grocery selection feels inconsistent. On the flip side, there's a noticeably bigger focus on frozen meals and frozen options, which is convenient... but it's not quite the same as walking in and feeling confident about the fresh picks. A bigger concern for me: a few times I visited, I noticed items that were close to--or possibly past--their prime/expiration date. That's the kind of thing that makes shoppers hesitate, especially when there are so many alternatives nearby. I genuinely think a little refresh would go a long way: - tighter inventory rotation - clearer quality checks - small clean-up / organization upgrades This is still a local business, and I'd like to see them bounce back. I'll continue to support when I can but I really hope they tighten up on options and inventory so it feels like the go-to spot again.

BACKGROUND INFO: - my SO's elderly grandfather (95 years…read moreold) was in dire need of a pedicure (extremely overgrown toenails) that he indicated he'd been trying to get addressed for several months - initially my SO's brother and his SO were going to address it, but backed down - my SO's sister and I scheduled an appointment on Friday 6/16 to go to a trusted nail salon, but on Wednesday 6/14 the grandfather backed out of it, insisting on finding an in-home service so he'd be in the comfort of his own home WHY WE WENT WITH SOULTREE: - Wednesday 6/14 evening I went on Yelp to search for "mobile nail service" vendors and opened up a project to cast a wider net - Nicole Williams from Soultree messaged me within 20 minutes of my Yelp project opening, providing me her name and phone number to call and schedule an appointment - out of all the mobile nail service vendors, Nicole was the most responsive and the most professional (she has a website and an IG page) CUSTOMER SERVICE (SCHEDULING COMMUNICATION): - I called her shortly after receiving her message and spoke to her on the phone - after our brief phone call I texted Nicole; our communication was mainly via text afterwards - after sending her recent photos of my SO's grandfather's feet (as part of the virtual consultation), she suggested the nail care package and provided an extensive description of service(s) pricing and accepted payment forms (i.e. PayPal, Venmo, CashApp, Apple Pay) - she indicated that she would possibly have scheduling conflicts due to waiting on confirmation of an internship, but opened up her weekend availability to service my SO's grandfather on Sunday 6/18, which also happened to be Father's Day - after confirming the appointment for Sunday 6/18 at 10AM, I sent Nicole the $150 deposit (applied towards service; non-refundable if canceled or not available for appointment time) + $65 travel fee via Venmo - I provided her with the address + parking information (FYI, clients are responsible for any/all parking fees) and contact information of my SO's sister (I was just the point of contact for finding and scheduling a vendor, but my SO's sister was the point of contact for accompanying the grandfather for the actual appointment) CUSTOMER SERVICE (APPOINTMENT): - Nicole arrived promptly at 10AM; my SO's sister was present for the duration of the appointment and reported that everything Nicole brought and used was clean, the conversation was ongoing between Nicole and the grandfather, and the end result was great COMPARING/CONTRASTING INFORMATION CRITIQUE: - Yelp indicates that Soultree's hours are Monday through Friday from 8AM-2PM, Saturday 8AM-12PM, and closed Sunday. Soultree's appointment times per the website under "Nail Services - Book Online" also indicate 8AM-2PM appointment time availability. On the initial phone call with Nicole and subsequent text communication she informed me she only accepts Monday through Friday 8AM-12PM appointments" - Her website indicates that her travel fee is "$35 and up depending on service location", but via text she indicated that her travel fee is "$65 or $0.75 cents a mile and up depending on location once address is confirmed" - Via text, her suggestion of the pedicure package was the "Specialty Nail Care Package #2"; further in the text explanation it states "Just Toenails - $150 per hour". On her website there are "Mommy Packages" as well as "Basic Manicure/Basic Pedicure" or "Spa Manicure/Pedicure" Packages at different prices - I would suggest that Nicole ensures that all platforms containing her pricing and scheduling availability is consistent and up to date TOTAL: - I sent (via Venmo) the $150 deposit + $65 travel fee = $215 - SO's sister sent (via CashApp) the remaining balance ($150/hour) and tip = $200 - $415 was the overall total

They got rid of Daisy or she left this s hole IDK! The only good technician :(( Now all thats left is people that make crooked nails and give 8 min foot massage total. Man oh man. I made the mistake of going with my mom even after seeing Daisy was gone, and there is two ladies, two, they both look alike, they always wear very fashionable clothes and handle the register most of the time and phone calls. They dress, very well, with heels high heels and wear phoney cartier jewelry haha anyway I did not get her name but she did my mothers nails all jagged and crooked and polish on her skin it was so sad, she made my mom upset and set her aside when my mom pointed it out and told her to wait and she waited over 10 min by the time i was done and I told her lets just go and I paid and tipped they said "oh can we fix her nails??" and I saw how upset my mom was so I just wanted to get us out of there and we wont be back! I also did this review only because they were rude to my mom and upset her. read more

I had a horrible experience at this nail salon and I am quite shaken by my recent experience there. First time I went there was a Monday afternoon, I waited 1:45 minute until someone started on my nail. Almost everyone who came after me got their nails done and left. When I inquired about it they said all other clients had appointments. Since this salon is literally next to my house, I decided to give it another shot. Next time I made an appointment and I got there 15 min before my appointment. Fifty-five min after my appointment I realized that whoever came after me got their nails done and left again. They didn't apologize or let me know who long it will take until they will get to me. When I asked the manager about the wait time, she yelled at me and said "we will get to you when we get to you." Obviously, at that point I left the shop but I am shocked with how rude their manger was and I will NEVER go back there. read more

I am so in love with Gloss Nail Spa! I just happened to stumble across this chic new salon while exploring in the Walnut Creek area with a former colleague. The pedicure spa chairs, the manicurist stations and the sweet little amenities like tea and nuts were just what we needed for a relaxing girls day together. I felt extremely relaxed and floating on cloud 9 when I left the salon with spanking, brand-new red gloss on my nails - from my hands to my toes. For my hands, I got the Shellac treatment which I find well worth the extra money as it stays on longer than traditional manicures. For my feet, I got a scrub down treatment that was heavenly divine. All in all, the verdict is in: this is my new favorite spot! I just hope the secret isn't out too quickly and that soon I will have to be booking appointments and waiting in line instead of being able to float in as I please for a mani/pedi delight :-) read more

I normally walk to get pizza at Straw Hat...so this is perfect for me. As I walked in, the ladies greeted me with a big smile. Vivian was really gentle and she gave me a very nice foot massage.

The staff at Nail shop are very sweet! Their manis and pedis are very detailed, you can tell these girls are perfectionists. Gel/design takes about 2 hours. The girls here are artistic, and great at coming up with nail art designs- they also have fun decorations that most nail salons don't carry. Great for fun/special occasion nails. Nail shop is a higher end nail spa, for those who have gone to nicer nail spas in asia, this is a familiar experience, and the pricing is relative to the great service level.Thank you all. see you girls next time. read more
