    Pink and white full set by Wendy!

    Got my nails done here for my wedding...best decision ever! Not only was the atmosphere extremely quiet and relaxing but the staff is so friendly as well. The entire process was amazing. When I called to book, the owner Kathy was so kind and accommodating when I told her I needed an appointment last minute. It's a hidden gem...you enter a sketchy lo

    PRICEY! DeAnn did my nails.. Had an appointment at 10:30 am this morning, and left at 1:30 pm. Asked for coffin nails, which I've been getting for months now and left with HELLA pointy nails. I have a hard time with this review because I loved the environment and the ladies working but I almost hate my nails. I love the color I chose but the layers kind of uneven near the edges. I love the length of my right hand but the only finger that is the shape and length I wanted is my thumb. My left hand nails are significantly longer then my right hand, SIGNIFICANTLY. Granted I didn't see this until I got home. I stopped asking her to change my nails after awhile because I figured past the acrylic there's not much you can do for the shape. I wish I would've been given a price quote before starting and a longer consultation but that's my bad for not asking. My nails were 65$, not including the 5$ off for checking in. Still, the salon is super pricey. I'm from the Bay Area and for the shape and gel color, it's only 45$ most places. The owner, Kathy, was super friendly and offered to order me a sandwich along with some for her employees but I'm still on the fence of if I would go back. The salon is located inside of the gym, which is owned by her husband. The area is kinda sketchy but such a well kept salon. Pictures will be up shortly. Showing the length difference and color. Oh and if you already have nails on when you go in, when you make an appointment you need to let them know ahead of time so they can make sure they have time to do it. They ARE the ONLY place I have ever gone too that has ever taken the nails of the proper and "legal" way, with the least damage to the natural nail. It's no doubt that Dee is super talented and I fully respect that she takes her time as well as puts care into her work. Update: The shape is definitely starting to grow on me, but still not worth 65$.

    KIM is awesome! !!! I love my nails & I am a very picky person.

    After making An appointment, I received a quick response confirming my appointment and what exactly I wanted done. Linda took her time to pick out the perfect options for my new year nails :) Salon was A little hard to find but very chik inside. A business sign should be coming in shortly, would recommend to EVERYONE

    Wendy did a great job!

    Been going to Wendy at High Maintenance nail salon for 6 months now and I'm continually impressed and happy. This salon offers that individualized, personal experience that is so hard to get these days. Beautiful nails every time and fun nail art when I'm feeling the mood! Highly recommend!

    French ombre by Tammy
    Rachel T.

    Thanks to Tammy, my nails have never looked better! She was very professional and took her time to create exactly what I wanted which was a french ombré acrylic set with a coffin shape. I'm in love! I highly recommend this salon and I will be returning.

    Understated and sparkly. The best detail! Love it!

    I really wanted some fancy nails. Something with a little detail and interesting. Wendy totally delivered. Everyone is so welcoming and nice. Will going back again.

    Gorgeous!

    I recently moved to the area and have been looking for a new nail salon. This place is a hidden gem! Wendy did a great job and took her time getting everything just right. Everyone was friendly, the salon looks great and has lots of options.

Im a bit of a perfectionist so nails that are rough or uneven or have small imperfections literally drive me crazy and have me ripping off nails prematurely. But finding Pam who is also a perfectionist and an artist is what I needed. Overall the shop is something I look forward to as my pampering/luxury experience for hands or feet.

I asked to do square white dip powder and my nail tech wasn't willing to do what I wanted. I got a mani and pedi and my pedi turned out great. The lady was super sweet and provided great service. My manicure tech first told me she wouldn't cut down my nails shorter after I had asked her to which she responded "it'll look ugly". I understand for specific nail shapes like almond a specific length is required to achieve that look but not for square. I then told her about how my family owns nail shops and she proceeded to make a comment about how it's a chop shop based on its location. In any circumstance when is it ever appropriate to make that comment?? This salon is nice and it is on the pricier side but the service does not meet the price point. I had multiple witnesses as well who can attest to these comments since I went with my friends. My square shape also came out wide, bulky, and ugly. I had to refile and reshape themselves. I can't speak for everyone but that was my experience at Blush and I won't be back.

I reached out through Yelp (in desperate panic mode), and they replied fast, explained what I needed, and were super helpful before I even walked in. The place is bright, clean, and has the kind of chill energy that makes you feel like you've been going there for years. Grace took care of my nail and was so gentle.. I was in pain, but she handled it like a pro. She even recommended a nail builder to keep my nails strong, which I didn't know I needed but now swear by. Duyen was sweet and made sure my daughter and I had drinks like we were at a spa. Sophia was working nearby and still had such a kind energy. And Phil? Phil is the unofficial house comedian. If you like your nails with a side of stand-up, he's your guy. AND... Grace and Phil randomly started singing. Like, actual vocals. I came in for a nail repair and somehow ended up at a mini concert/comedy show. 10/10 would attend again. So yeah.. if you're looking for quality work, fun vibes, and a place that doesn't feel stiff or awkward, this is it. Come for the nails, stay for the entertainment. I'll be back again. At the end of the service I was given a cuticle oil!

I just came back today and got a fill - specifically requested for no polish because I have my family member doing it for my wedding reception this weekend. Somehow the fill was still $50 when I used to get full sets with designs starting at $50. When I asked for clarification I just got told "yeah that's right." I also got a pedicure but I wasn't asked what type, just assumed it was the basic one. Yes it was very nice she did great, I also got french tips. But found out that was $62 and again when asking just got told "yeah that's right." Just a bit frustrating when it doesn't seem like the service was extra or "luxury" per se. Yes I understand it's been awhile as well and inflation is a very real thing. I was excited to come back and Andy was sweet and did a great job. I just can't understand the pricing when at other places it's $40 for a pedicure and $35/40 for fills for the same services. There's no pricing online so maybe that's my fault for not asking ahead of time. Definitely feels like a bit of a rip off and I don't think I'll be back anymore unfortunately.
