Updating my review to 3 stars because 1) less than one week out, my gel mani is starting to peel; 2) the girl who did my pedi gave me a painful cut; 3) they have a very limited selection of regular polish. read more

I haven't been able to find a nail salon that I truly stand by, and Kay's nail salon is at definitely at the top of my list! I'm a nurse, and I wash my hands multiple times a day and often handle harsh disinfectants; regular polish does not stand a chance, so I always get gel polish, and I often find myself with a chipped manicure a few days after. However, with Kay's Nail Salon, my manicure has stayed intact a few weeks after my service, and I couldn't be happier. I'm getting lots of compliments from other nurses, and I'm recommending this salon to all of them. On top of this, my experience was lovely. I was able to schedule an appointment quick with a simple phone call, the music was nice and relaxing, and my tech was very kind. Highly recommend coming here, and I'll be back again! read more

I was excited to try out a new nail salon. It was clean and there were enthusiastic reviews. Unfortunately, I was not impressed. $38 for a 15 minute pedicure that barely had any massage is not an ideal experience. I'm willing to pay even more for a good experience but I can get a better pedicure for less at the other end of Solano. I do not recommend. read more
