I really hate to write this review and hoped not to, but every time I come here in hopes of it getting better it hasn't :( I generally come here to get pedicures. Every single time it feels very rushed. When I ask for something a certain way, I am disregarded and not listened to :( Lots of steps that are supposed to be done aren't and get skipped every time I've been here. I've gotten poked many times and skin pulled when they remember to trim the cuticles. A pedicure from start to finish is done in 15 minutes, that's way too fast and very rushed. I've also noticed that the equipment is not really that clean and don't see it come from a clean box like it's supposed to. I'm sure it's been used on other people. One of the utensils used on me was dipped back in the water that my feet had been soaking in and then put back with the other utensils. It looked like they were "cleaning it" and then to be used on somebody else and not sanitized properly. I asked for my nails to be filed but not trimmed when they first started the pedicure and then asked again when it looked like they were going to start painting my nails. I was told repeatedly not to worry and that they would file them after they painted my nails.Usually that is done before, they only file a tiny bit after they've been painted for touchups. My nails were not at all even and very rough on the edges. They should have been filed before being painted like I had asked. I will not be coming back here again unfortunately. I don't believe anything will change. Im done being disappointed and hoping things will get better. read more

Lovee the service! Didn't get the lady's name but she was patient as I am indecisive and sometimes can't land on color She was understanding and suggested some colors to help and swatched them on my finger making sure I left happy 5 star service! read more

Jc Nails - brown squared acrylic - Nail Salons Near Me

I would never go to this establishment ever again. They don't clean their facility and their tools. I got two staph infections and three fungal infections in my big toe when he poked me doing a pedicure. It took 4 months to get rid of. Then I had surgery on my foot because of it. I would never in my life again go to this establishment. It's dirty and the owner is very rude. She's very very rude!! read more

Absolutely don't recommend always rushing especially pedis , constantly giving different prices every time I've given this place a chance .. Annie will give you a price and then up it when you're ready to pay don't recommend!!!! read more

They charged me 70 dollars for a design I didn't even want! I showed the lady who was taking care of me and she said she could do it and ended up giving me a complete different design. Last year I went there and it was great they had charged me 65 dollars for both manicure and pedicure. Probably won't be going there again. On top of all of what happened to me, another lady was getting her nails done and the technician tending to her yelled at her and she told her to not yell at her. Like who in the right mind is willing to yell at a client. read more

Don't come here for nails, just don't. Save your time and money. I usually just get my brows done and a pedicure, but I wanted birthday nails! Biggest mistake !!! I asked for short nails but this was a total joke, they all had different shapes, they were lifted, thick, so ugly ! I went back to get them fixed and THEY CHARGED ME TO FIX THEM because it took too much work. OBVIOUSLY!! I had to tell them no that I didn't want the original tech to fix them because she obviously didn't know what she was doing, I tipped the tech who fixed them, then payed, I was so irritated. I won't be going back, not for brows, not for pedis. read more

What I showed the nail tech vs what she gave me. The place is DIRTY too. The equipment is covered in old gunk & dusty. I brought my niece (9) and my son (5) to get their nails done too and the lady who did my nail set refused to do my sons nails (he just wanted to be part of the spa day and get blue so why not) so we had to wait for another nail tech to do his. She came over to ask who was getting their nails done and as soon I pointed to my son she looked surprised & walked away & asked another lady to do his. read more

Honestly this is one of the worst set of nails I've ever had! I think all the bad reviews come from one specific lady because I've had my nails done here before multiple times but never with the lady I had two days ago and I've never had this happened to me. She was doing them in such a hurry, very sloppy, and her station was not clean. She sits all the way in the back of the salon. My nails look so uneven with the ombré, they have bumps and cracks on the sides and ends, and my cuticles look horrible! I think they all need to chill and take their time doing nails! Annie is amazing at brow waxing tho! read more

Honestly I've never been in so much pain from getting my nails done... I got acrylics done earlier today and I have 3sharp cuts on different nails from the lady filing my nails soo quick, so rushed which I didn't understand cause there wasn't really anyone else waiting? I told her it hurt and she kept going read more

I have one nail tech that I love going to, she does a great job. However, recently I went to get a pedicure with a different tech and the lady cut me. I thought okay no biggie, accidents happen. But it disappointed me that she did not offer to disinfect the cut, and continued like nothing happened. 2 weeks later the infection still has not healed, will not be returning for pedicures here again. read more

This place absolutely sucks. I'm not one to leave reviews but if you love yourself don't even spend your time or money here. I have never had this bad of a nails. Literally so horrendous. Came back the day after I got them done bc the nail polish was chipping off and I've never had that happen to any of my acrylics before. That's just one of the things wrong. Just don't come here. read more

I'm not from Watsonville. I was in town and figured I'd get a full before heading back to San Jose's. I came here because my coworker recommended this place to me. I get seated right away. The issues didn't start until i noticed the lady doing my nails was doing them quick and sloppy. Her whole station was dirty. And she kept hurting my finger/nail when she was working on them. I figured I'd go ahead and complete the whole works bc i was more than half way done already. I got a basic white color on my nails. The nail polish looked old and she was brushing on the polish like she was in a hurry and had something better to do. She didn't bother to file my nails evenly or even cut my actual nail underneath. Right after she was done doing a sloppy job at polishing my nails she told me "move over". MIND U MY NAILS WERE NOT EVEN DRY YET. The light to dry my nails was RUSTY and DIRTY. DO NOT COME HERE UNLESS U WANNA PAY FOR A SLOPPY JOB ON UR NAILS!!! read more

Jc Nails - Love them - Nail Salons Near Me

This place is horrible, DO NOT go here. The lady who did my manicure just started doing a squared shape without even asking and cut my nails too short. She then cut 3 of my fingers cuticles too much and put nail glue to try and stop the bleeding, this is not okay and this place should be closed. Clearly the lady was very rushed and didn't care about doing a good job, even the painting was horrible. Save your money and do not go here. read more

Worst nail place ever! Don't waste your money. The ladies are extremely rude. Went to get a full set and pedicure.. First she gets my nail shape horribly wrong I ask to do it over did so in a rude way then had the decency to want to charge me 5 EXTRA dollars to re do it when they messed up like okay I'm not paying for your mistake. When this happened they started speaking they're language and all glared at me. I felt uncomfortable the entire time and they seem to always be in a hurry even when there's no other customers.. All they're good for is eyebrows. Never again.? read more

Jc Nails - This is NOT coffin shaped! Thumbs down. - Nail Salons Near Me

I went last minute for a mani/pedi. Once they started on my nails over a dirty towel with someone elses nail dust and filing down my natural (already thin) nails with the dremmel;after I asked her not to I was not about to get a pedicure in this filthy place. They did a terrible job. Basically they cut my nails WAY too short, then painted my fingers along with my nails. They did a sloppy terrible job. Honestly my 8 year old does a better job. No matter how desperate you are to get a mani pedi stay far from this place it isn't worth spending any money or the risk of getting a flesh eating disease from the filthy tools and equipment. read more

I came out of this place very angry, I asked for white nails with blue marble and she did white nails with black dots, I had her do it again and do something else because apparently that was too hard for her and she was rushing through my visit because they wanted to attend other people and ended up doing my nails very bad, they charged me $45 for a full set, definitely not worth the wait or my money. I called before going to see if I they had time to wax my eyebrows and she said yes, when I got there the wait for the eyebrow waxing was long, I waited an hour then asked how much longer and she said she didn't know with an attitude, I got out and got my eyebrows waxed somewhere else! read more

Ann is the best eyebrow tech ever! I cant rave enough for both men and woman eyebrows... My fiance, brother, father, mother sister and myself have an appointment every 2 weeks... the price is higher but quality is worth every penny... walk ins are available but I say Appointments are a must they are busy with good reason... The are clean fast and friendly... Tammi is the go to nail tech. Honestly you cant go wrong with any of them. read more

I am always impressed with Annie, the owner. I only get my eyebrows waxed by her and I've been going to her for over 2 years. Ocasionally I also get a bikini wax, its a very clean and efficent experience and much less $$ than European Wax Center. read more

I love annie she always does an amazing job I won't go anywhere else they are busy so I would recommend making an appointment if you don't want to wait read more

I went in with my daughter to have her eye brows done. There was only two people waiting to get their nail done. So when we told them that I need waxing, they didn't even look up from what they were doing but said that they were too busy to come some other day. I've been to creative nail in down town, where they have a full house but they still have time to do brows. Never going back read more

The lady doing my nails was rushing and cut me. She also left some nails uneven and sharp. She had too many costumers waiting for too long. I certainly do not recommend this nail shop. read more

I only give it a 1 star because I have to. But this is the worst place I have ever been to. The lady that helped me took 35 minutes doing a whole nail set. When she was done I didn't even know because she just walked away and started doing a pedicure. After looking at my nails I saw the job she did which was not good at all. None of my nails had the same shape, she painted all over my cuticle and she even cut me. I left super disappointed but then I called back and asked if they could fix them for me. I went back and the same lady asked me to sit down. She then rudely asked "okay what?" And I told her, "well look at my nails. They're uneven, you got nail polish all over my cuticles" and she started raising her voice telling me that is was because of the shape I chose (which was coffin). I told her "I have gotten my nails done plenty of times before, and this has never happened. It's the way you did them." She then asked for my hand and when I handed her my hand, she pulled and yanked on my finger!!!! I pulled back and said "oh no, if you're going to be this rude I don't want you to fix them so give me my money back." She then proceeded to say it's okay that she would fix them. These are the pictures I took AFTER she had fixed them. Horrible horrible job and service! read more

I usually go to the same place to get my nails done but I was in town and I needed a fill badly. The staff was very kind and greeted me as I walked in. I was assisted right away. However the lady that did my nails filed them too short and was very rough with my fingers as she was working on my nails. When she painted my nails I asked for a 3 coat because I was still able to see my nails. She did a poor job at painting my nails and when she finished I noticed some of them were uneven. Won't be coming here again even if I'm desperate for fill. read more

Worst nail salon and so over priced. I got a full and the lady was rough and rude. The acrylic set terribly and she wouldn't file them down.. LIKE I ASKED HER TO. All around bad. Oh and dirty read more

We went here today for pedicures and my daughter a fill. First of all... the pedi was very short and she got up and started doing my daughters nails and left me sitting there for almost an hour. I got no second coat or a clear coat. The floor was filthy. My daughter asked her to file her nails more pointy and she gave her an ugly look and refused. Then she gave her a gel and she didn't even ask for it. NOT WORTH IT!! Do not go here!!! read more

I dropped my 16 year old daughter off at the JC nails in Watsonville to have her acrylic nails removed. I was horrified when I picked her up and she told me that the nail tech used another acrylic nail to pull off each of her acrylic nails one by one. I used to have them and know that they normally soak them in a solution to help soften the glue, and use a sanding tool to gently remove. This was barbaric, and just plain mean!! And they charged us 40 dollars, 30 plus 10 tip. Her nails are super sore to the touch, and paper thin now. I didn't call there to complain, I figured what's the point they can't understand English, and I would NEVER go back!!! read more

I went to get a set of nails and while she was filing them she cut me pinky on the side and it's a very deep cut. Also when they cut them I told her that's the length I want them and they filed them down all the way to my real nail she also left them uneven but I just wanted to get out of there. I do not recommend them for nails they did a horrible job. read more

I have been going here on and off for years. I went looking for a good foot masaage after a long stretch of working on my feet. I usually get amazing service but today no one even greeted me. Just pointed to a chair where I sat for at least 10 minutes with no water in the tub, very awkward and uncomfortable. Then when the person came to start my water she barely checked the temp, it was very hot. Sat there again for another 10 mins. She then came and started working on my feet talking the the person working next to her the entire time, never asking what I wanted or how I was doing. Then when it came to the color she didn't follow my instructions at all. I figured I shouldn't be picky, at least I'll get a nice foot rub. But no. She only rubbed my legs for a minute or two while talking to her friend next to her, never even touched the bottom of my feet. After working as a nurse 40 hours a week, all I wanted was a good foot rub.... not at this place anymore. Very disappointed Annie. And it still cost $30... read more

I came in to get my eyebrows waxed and was waiting for 30 minutes before walking out the door. I was not greeted but the workers there just glared at me quickly before continuing to work on other people. Other customers came in after me and were assisted before me. I was invisible. Never going here again. They're very rude and unprofessional. read more

service was poor, place was dirty, pedicare chairs wobbly and of repair. bad pedicare. will not recommend at all

They leave them SO crooked!! They also can't do any other shape other than square apparently. I asked for coffin and I got really square/coffin shaped nails. One cracked in the first week and the rest literally came off super easily. They also speak their language the whole time. Completely unprofessional I really don't recommend coming here. read more

Worst nail salon in town. It seems like they're always in a hurry to get you out the door even when they're not busy yet they still anticipate a tip. read more

this nail salon is terrible!!! never would i ever go there again!!! the lady i got pryed my acrylics off when i asked for them to be remover she even ripped off one of my natural nails!!! then when i got a nother set (not acrylic) she asked what color i wanted i picked this really pretty color (or what i thought was going to be pretty) she put it on and it was a different color completely she didnt even finish the top coat so half were mat and the other half was glossy!!! it looked so gross if i could i would give a negative 5,000 review!!!!! 10/10 would not recommend!!! when i got home i removed them immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I really wish I would have checked out their reviews before going here. I was not acknowledged at all when I came in. After standing there for 10 minutes, someone finally asked what I needed. While waiting, I noticed that the place was filthy...a big red flag that I should have left. While doing my fill-in, the man working on my nails cut me twice with the drill and left acrylic all over my cuticles. Seeing as 2 of my fingers were bleeding, there was no way I was going to ask him to clean them up. He also used clear acrylic powder for my fill in, even though I was getting a "pink & white" fill, resulting in horrible results and being able to see exactly where they had grown out read more
