She's nice ! and she tries ! Seriously not very good of a job ! I gave it 3 tries and super dissatisfied! With her work ! Paint comes off too fast ! Nails look like they need a fill about the second day after ! What's up with that ? Anyways she is super kind!! And nice ! But !!! read more

Went into this place for a pedi on a whim because I walked by and they were empty. Near the beginning, another lady walked in to request a mani/pedi, and was told she'd have to wait 30 min (even though there was another employee who kept emerging and then disappearing from the back). After my pedi, I was placed in front of a fan and she began the other lady's pedi. I was ignored for 15 minutes before I had to request for her to let me pay so I could leave instead of waiting for her to finish. Meanwhile the other employee from the back had come out and was watching TV - so I'm really confused about why that other lady had to wait until my pedi was done, or why I wasn't helped to pay timely. On top of the poor service, once I got home and inspected more closely, the painting is blotchy and smeared! read more

Jessi Nail II - Looks like a child painted my toes - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Save yourself the money and the headache. Yes, its cheaper than most places, but they suck. I showed them a simple picture of how i wanted my nails to look like, they couldnt do it. Terrible quality of polish, terrible job, terrible customer service. Stay as far away from this nightmare as possible. My nails turned out to be a disaster, no matter how many times i asked for it to be fixed, they couldnt do anything. Very unprofessional place. read more

First time here. Stopped by because I wanted to remove my acrylic nails ASAP. Lina (?) was the only staff there. She didn't look too happy to see me but not rude either. I ended up getting gel polish too. She did a very nice job w my nails in the end. I gave 3 stars because she took me on walk-in too. However, the seats were old and pretty nasty. No place to put or hang my purse. She didn't talk much either--but that's fine w me. The part that turned me away from this place was when she was sanding off the acrylic, all the powder was going all over me and my brand new phone! I've never had someone disregard my property and I so much before! I had so much powder everywhere!!! GGGRRR!!!The whole place just really looks unclean and outdated. I don't plan on coming back. read more

Got a gel manicure that chipped after one day. The nail lady didn't apply a base coat and when I asked repeatedly to please apply a gel base coat she said she had even though she had not. She applied the gel color directly onto the nail in a very quick and sloppy fashion which resulted in the nails chipping almost immediately. Three days later and I need a new gel manicure. It's a cheap manicure for a reason. Will not be back as I could have for a better job myself. read more

I love this place! It's a tiny mom&pop kinda place but they always give the best spa pedicures! At $15 for the pedicure, it's more than well worth the money! It can be crowded so be sure to make an appointment! read more

Don't ever go here. Got my nails done for a fill and I asked for a gradient effect and she said she couldn't do it because she needs a machine to do it. I think her name was Nina. I told her I wanted a light baby blue color she made it green. She didn't clean my cuticle correctly and I asked for a more oval shape and they were not even. She barely even tried. She asked if I wanted a design and I really did but then she ended up putting a sticker on my nail which looked crappy as hell. She even buffed my nails so hard it hurt and she cut me. I still tipped her because I know what it's like to work in the service industry but she really did the crappiest job. Worst nail salon ever. Ugh god. read more

Got my nails done here since I was away from my usual nail place for the holidays. The lady was pretty quiet but she was cooperative and did everything I asked for in a quick amount of time. It was the day of Christmas Eve when I stopped by so I appreciated the speediness of the visit! read more

Jessi Nail II - Got my nails repainted here since I was in town for the holidays and away from my usual place in OC. I love this paint option - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I'm really sad and disappointed. If I had reviewed this place after my first visit, I'd have given it 5 stars. Loved it the first time. Best spa pedicure ever. Great massage, great polish job, etc. Loved it so much that I made an appointment to get a spa pedi and a gel manicure before my vacation. I was pumped! It is the day after said appointment...my nails look like crap. They are bubbled, the gel is unglued from my nail on 6 of my 10 fingers. On one hand the white part (french manicure) came completely off already. 24 hours worth of a gel manicure for $25. No thank you. They have crappy nail polish - it's old and I actually watched them put something in labeled "nail polish thinner". Old, crusty, sticky nail polish. Honestly, I want my money back. Or my nails re-done by someone who knows how to do them. I feel completely ripped off, and I'm pissed that I tipped REALLY WELL. How was I to know they were going to last ony 24 hours??? Do not waste your time or money. It's a crap shoot, and the odds aren't in your favor. read more

Nina always does an AMAZING job on my gel nails! I always come to this location when I'm in town. She takes her time and makes sure I'm happy with her work. I always walk out satisfied! The price is extremely affordable and fair. They have great spa chairs for pedicures. And plenty of parking. Will continue to come to this business :) read more

Ok so a manicure was only $8, so I am willing to overlook a lot. But looking at my nails the day after they just look completely horrid. I felt like the lady who did my nails HATED her job. She was filing my nails while looking out the window, at the tv, basically anywhere but my hands. Needless to say, my nails are all different lengths. The nail polish they have is all really old and off brand. Probably the nicest polish they have is outdated Revlon polish. To dry your nails you are supposed to hold up your hands to a lamp. Literally the warmth of the light bulb is supposed to dry your hands. My nails are not glossy and they look gross. (My cuticles are flooded, tips aren't wrapped, nail polish is bubbled) It would have looked better if I saved the $8 and did it myself. read more

Below zero stars. So rude ! I've went in to ask if they do eyebrows waxing. The front counter girl replied to me very rude and very unwelcoming. So I turn my back and exit the door . Unfortunately I was going for threading with Aneta next door but she close on Sunday argh. Anyways stay away from Jessi nails read more

If I could give this place 0 I would ... I walked in on Halloween around 3:30pm to see if I could get a broken nail fixed and was turned away as she sat there eating watching tv she said she already had a customer coming in. Instead of having me wait she made me feel like she wanted me to leave, so I did. Will never be back read more

I literally just went in there to ask a question the staff was extremely rude. They looked at me weird because I'm not wearing so-called normal clothes I mean comfortable wear pajamas they looked at me like if I was poor and couldn't afford to get my nails done they told me one price and told the other young lady who was getting a full set a cheaper price than my fill this place is ridiculous don't ever go there I didn't even get a service done and yet I would never go in there for service if you want to get your nails done in a respectful place I suggest you go to Blush Hour they know how to treat customers with great customer service read more

They went from 4 stars to one... how is it that they are going to tell me they will do my nails, then I go use the restroom and when I come back, they have the audacity to tell me, oh sorry we have a costumer comming in a little bit, can you come back later?!?!?! Mind you, there are three people working there... but hey, I guess the so called customer has three freaking arms! Arghhh, why tell me yes, set up the station, then come back and say no!!! Seriously?!?! No sense! read more

Came in for a gel mani with Hong and the service was ok. Nothing I would recommend for anyone but the job was decent. 2 days later the gel polish is catching on my clothes. Day 5 my entire nails polish lifts and it's off. I come back and she ask me what I did. Goes to accusing me of some wrong doing. I won't be back. read more

Nina is the best! I've been going to her for years! I totally recommend her & this shop! I get waxing & my nails/pedi done here.

You get what you pay for. I was attracted to the 23$ mani pedi and went in first thing to get it done. Called ahead of time to make sure there would be no wait, and she said to come in. No wait when I got there. She was literally the only person there. (Don't remember her name). She didn't say very much to me, her accent was terribly hard to understand and her English wasn't well. Rushed through both my pedi and mani. Didn't bother to push back the cuticles or smooth the top of either my feet or hands. She didn't even cut my nails. Not once. Kinda messy paint job. She seemed like she just really didn't wanna do my nails. I let her was my eyebrows, too. I didn't take a picture of those before I fixed them. They weren't horrible but she missed quite a few hairs and didn't bother to pluck them. All 3 things were $30 so not bad I guess. I will never go back. read more

This place is AWESOME. Super clean and the best freakin gel/shellac colors I've ever seen in a salon. They sprinkled loose glitter on my fingers and then shellacked it on with uv. It's GORGEOUS. I got a full pedi with callous remove (my feet were NASTY), acrylic put on one toe, a glitter shellac mani all for $38. Totally clean, they have AC and they take cards. read more

Jessi Nail II - Ugly hands and RAD nails! - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

The only lady in the store was very rude when I came in asking for a pedicure. There was no one else in the store besides the lady she was already helping and it seemed she just wanted me to go away. So I did. Only stopped in since it was next door to aneta's. Will never stop by again read more

This place is the worst service i have ever encountered. The ONE AND ONLY person working there in the middle of the day on a Saturday was so rude. I walked in and asked how much a full set and pedicure would be, she looked at me and said "No i busy, no you have to wait too long, i too busy for you" the client she was working on said "oh no its ok, i shouldnt be too long" and the same nasty little lady scrubbing feet for a living said again "no, i busy, you hear me i busy" I will NEVER go here again, even if they paid me!!!! read more

Awful is an understatement. The place was filthy, the woman who did my fill was on the phone the whole time, speaking in Vietnamese. When I asked her to file my nails "square instead of oval" (while she was filing away rounding my nails off to point resembling an 80's prostitute...) she shot me a glare like I was rude to interrupt her important phone conversation. My bad, I thought I was paying YOU...? read more

I was waiting for the threading place to open and stopped by here for a quick pedicure. When I came in the place was empty. The person who helped me was really sweet. Although, the way they do your pedicure here is somewhat different from other nail salons. They put the lotion with oil to massage your feet and calves which is not wiped off with a rag like normal. So, I was left walking around with slippery feet. Don't think I will be stopping by again. read more

Won't go back. Just moved to this area. Hoping to like it bc location. Had to fix my pedicure with polish remover around edges and an additional top coat. My search continues. read more

This place has the worse customer service ever! Wanted to remove my gel manicure and just do a buffing. The woman who wasn't with anyone at all said she is booked! Wouldn't see me! Bad bad service! I don't recommend anyone to come here! read more

I will go out on a limb and give them 4 stars with the following tips. I call before I go and make an appointment. I bring my own OPI polish and then paint an additional top coat (my good brand) the next day to prolong the mani/pedi. The mani/pedi was $18 plus tax. I go maybe once every couple of months when my cuticles get out of control and really tore up. They will spend about an hour and a half working on me. I think the person I usually get is Nina and she does really good work. When I'm done it looks like I've had my nails done and I'm happy. No frills. I think when I've used a credit card in the past they may have tacked on an extra dollar or so, so I just pay cash. read more

I should of read the reviews! Stopped the lady half way through my acrylic nails !!!!! Really bad place

Still sitting in the chair getting a pedicure. Came with a friend and there isn't even anyone helping her. Someone was supposed to come and help and never showed. Friend just said screw it. Lady kept apologizing and then hugged my friend and was rubbing her arms- uncomfortable. Never will return read more

This place is so AMAZING. I walked in and it was sooo clean, they could keep a conversation going. Their very nice and my nails came out so good. 100% recommend this place ! read more

Nina does a great job! She takes her time and is detail oriented. My gel never pealed and lasted 3 weeks!

Have been going to Nina for years, great massage, great prices, cute and clean inside, flexible if I need to change appt time.

Got my nails set done .Never come here again. Bad service.Doesnt follow what i want, choose something she like n insist doing it on me. Gee i pay for it read more

I called ahead and made an appointment for a shellac manicure because I saw the price on the window and I couldn't beat it! Not even 24 hours later, 3 of my 10 nail polishes have completely peeled off. Don't get me wrong, she did a speedy and great job and my nails looked amazing, but for a gel manicure, I expect at least 10 days of wear. I didn't even get 1 day of wear!!! Very disappointed in the quality of the Polish or in whatever happened. read more

The lady who did my nails did a horrible job, the polish was clumpy and the acrylics broke within two days due to how poorly she made them. I've been here two times and every time they disappointed me. They are also not closed like yelp is saying read more

If I could I would give it a 0. Terrible service. Went to get a simple gel manicure. My nails had bumps and the color was uneven. When I told holly the nail lady she was rude and blamed it on the nail color I picked (white) she was rude and told me she had no time to fix or remove it and will charge me more. Dont waste your time or money read more

I love this place. I think the prices are incredibly reasonable and my nails have always lasted and look great.

This place is very reasonable. Spa pedi for $15 and lower leg wax for $18. That alone was the initial draw for me. How good the pedi is always depends on WHOis giving it not where. Ask for Nina she is the best. If you get one of the others you may be disappointed. This nail salon is typical of most. read more

I had to get a manicure for a wedding and was picking up my dry cleaning next door, so I thought I'd try Jessi Nails. I found out that they do manicures with OPI Axxium, which is AWESOME because it is supposed to last for 2 weeks without chipping. The manicure wasn't super cheap at $25 with french tips, but it was pretty good quality and they seemed reasonably clean. read more
