I love this Salon. The people are so nice. My nails I have done by Amy and Tina does my pedicures. Give them a try you won't be sorry. The owners own another Nail Salon Across from Railys grocery Store. There is a Starbucks near by. Grab your coffee and get your pedicure, manicure or better yet get them both!! I have been to both locations. But, this location is perfect for where I live. I also like the quiet relaxing atmosphere. If you are visiting Napa and need a pedicure or manicure by yourself or with friends either location will be perfect for you. read more

What is with the electric nail filer these nail salons are using? I told the manicurist not to use this on my nails because they file too close and the nail hurts when in the gel lamp. But she was argumentative and I should've just walked out. Now my nails look horrible with lumps and hurt when I wash my hand in warm water. Use this on fake nails not real ones! Not coming back here definitely. read more

I walked in to get acrylic soak off and he did a really great job removing my nails. My nails grew out a lot under the acrylic and he managed to save my natural nails. He took his time and soaked them off the right way. Other salons I've been to in town just pried them off with a nail tip to save time (ruining my natural nails because they literally ripped a layer of nail off.) I recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a clean nail salon that actually listens when you see something you don't like!! read more

I love La Vie Nail Spa! What a great location, they are always friendly and I get pampered by Amy. The signature pedicure with hot rocks and hot paraffin is amazing. I highly recommend Amy! read more

Fast and basic-not busy and terrible service for the price! Felt rushed. Mani/pedi in less than 40 minutes!! $75 I could have given to a student! read more

Manicures I receive are adequate but not "good.". Used to get quality work here years ago but speed & tips is all that seems to matters to them So I never expect much from their manicures and pedicures. I saw two credit card transactions occur while I was waiting for my appointment. When they completed my service, I gave her my credit card. she said "you have cash?". Then she put card back in my hand. I replied, "No I don't think so". I tried to giver her my card. "You accept credit cards". "No, you look see if you have cash. You look and pay with cash". I quelled my anger and paid cash. Thought about reporting them for refusing my credit card. If there's a next time, I'm going in with just a credit card and my phone. No CASH. Thought about calling the DA's Consumer Affairs office. They've been helpful in the past. I probably will do so because I saw them do two card transactions before refusing to allow me to pay with my card. read more

I am very disappointed with this place!! I usually come here to get my nails done, but my experience was different this time. I asked for coffin shape but my nail tech said it was too hard .. Ummmm okay???? So we stuck with square shape! Every time I would ask her to shorten my nails a little more she would give me dirty looks (which by the way is very unprofessional). I could tell she wasn't having the best day just by her attitude and the look on her face. Still, that shouldn't have been an excuse to mess up my nails!!! At this point I was already very bothered. I didn't want to ask her for anything else because she was already very moody. I did not like her service whatsoever, therefore I didn't think she deserved a tip. My nails were all uneven, one was longer than the other and they had no shape to them whatsoever. I was not happy at all with how my nails turned out. read more

Let's start with, "I am a $20 tipper for a wonderful foot massage, and I've been known to drop $50 on a massager who sent me to La La Land." Today I ask for the polish on the toes to be changed and I am told it will cost $15.00. Okay. Then, I say I would also like a foot massage. In response, I am told I cannot have a foot massage unless I get a pedicure! Okay! I really want the polish changed, so I agree. The lady takes polish remover and removes the polish, leaving residual from the polish that has just been removed on the sides of the toe nails and on the cuticles. She then proceeds to apply a base coat to the toe nails that still have polish remover on the nails and residual polish remover around the sides of the toes and the cuticles. WHAT!?!? IN THE 55 YEARS I HAVE BEEN GETTING PEDICURES, POLISH CHANGES AND MASSAGES ... THAT WAS A FIRST ... A BASE COAT ON TOP OF NAIL POLISH REMOVER ... NO! NO! AND, NO! The woman did not understand simple English. "I want the polish changed and a foot massage." One would imagine given all of the services being offered in this establishment that there would be a service called "Polish change and foot massage" that a "fee" could be applied to. There was actually a time where I could come into La Vie and get exactly what I wanted and the people were kind. Those days are gone! read more

Did not love this salon. First time here and I felt like everything they did for me was an inconvenience. My tech was very unfriendly and rough with my hands and feet. I asked for a 10min massage and she said ok with a sigh. She never showed me a timer like every other salon always does, pretty sure I got a 5min massage at best. The massage was terrible too. My gel mani was done in under 10mins... it was like she was trying to get me out of there ASAP. She used her nails to clean off excess polish which hurt like hell. Why not use a brush with acetone to clean up lines?? In the end my nails look passable from far but the gel is definitely too tick and the lines aren't clean at all. I will say that my tech ended with a little neck massage, which was probably the best part of this experience. After $70 and a $15 tip, it was definitely not worth it. The tech didn't even seem happy with it either. She didn't even deserve that tip. read more

If I could give it a zero stars I would. Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Terrible service and the work is awful. Gel nails chipped on day two. read more

This place used to be nice. The ladies who worked here were sweet and made me feel good. Lately, however, there seems to be a change in the morale. The last few times I've been here have been very uncomfortable and unpleasant, and the actual manicures have been the wrong color, weak, or with flaws. The women are not nice about fixing mistakes, either. I vowed to not come here again, unfortunately. It's just too unpleasant. read more

Took my mother in for mani/pedi as well as myself. Staff started off friendly. Then their attitude changed when a different lady came over to do my hands. She was massaging my hands aggressively and I told her that was sore. She stopped walked away and got hot towels to put on. She continued to ignore me after that. We sat for a while and I tried asking if it was ok to leave- were out nails dry. She completely ignored us. My mani is dinged up by the time I got home. I will never return to this nail salon. No wonder it was empty- now I know the reason why! read more

I don't usually gripe publicly. Phoned to make appointment weeks in advance with a particular technician,was asked my phone number for confirmation. Drove one hour to napa walked in and was told I had no reservation and they had no availability. The manner in which this situation was handled for a previous customer was rude and unprofessional. Discussing me amongst your coworkers (not in a language I speak) was unacceptable. There are so many great nail salons in napa with providers that smile when you walk in AND utilize an appointment book. read more

Do you like leaving nail salons and feeling like you just set your money on fire? This is the place for you. Their pedicure was like 10 minutes long and they charged me 30 just to cut my nails and put new nail polish. And then I wanted a fill but I wanted to shorten my nails a bit and instead of asking me how short she just completely cuts my nail off. Yes my WHOLE acrylic nail. So I end up having to get super short nails because she was not gonna fix her mistake. Then when I asked to see if I liked the color she ignored me and didn't care. Cool then she tells me it's 70 dollars. 40 dollars when you completely botches my nails. To top it off her shape was crap. Will never come back. If you like wasting your money for nothing, this is the place for you. read more

their service is TERRIBLE. customer service, cleanliness, everything about this place is nasty.

Sloppy work, chipped in 2 days, I went in for them to repair and they said it's only supposed to last a couple days. Zero customer service. Rude. Save your money. I'll be going back to https://www.silveradoresort.com/napa-valley-spa read more

La Vie Nail Spa - Sloppy French manicure that chipped in 2 days. They wouldn't repair it - said they only last a couple days. - Nail Salons Near Me - Napa, California

Do Not Go There. Just wanted a manicure no polish but buffed. Place was quiet, she rushed and hardly touched my nails. I had to ask her to pay attention to my cuticles and redo by right hand. The buff was an extra $5.00 which was fine. She was only interest in quickly getting me out of there. I paid her and tipped her and will never go back. I had been there once before and the service was much better. read more

I went here in hopes of finding a new nail salon closer to my house, and was sadly mislead by the nice decor and wonderful location. I gave 2 stars because the man who I spoke to on the phone got me right in and was really polite and friendly, but other than him, I would have given 1 star. I got dip, which I've been doing for quite some time now. It took the woman 2 hours to do my nails, as she had to file and buff multiple nails 3 or 4 times because she wasn't doing a step right. My nails are uneven, bumpy and I had to file them significantly myself when I got home. Let alone that this cost me $50 and 2+ hours of my time. Will not be returning here. I don't pay that much money for a mediocre job. Wouldn't recommend based on the experience I personally had. I took a picture of my nails, but this is after I filed the sides myself so they are a bit better than they were when I left the salon. read more

This is the second time at the salon. I felt that they did not give much attention and time. They also were not very personable and felt rushed to leave. Definitely did not feel pampered. read more

Such a weird experience. Terrible greeting upon arrival and I had an appointment. I've never felt a mani-pedi be so rushed. Gel polish was applied sloppy and spilling onto my skin. Massage portion was lacking. One of the ladies even spilt a bowl of water on my lap and pretended it didn't really happen. They also over-committed to customers when they did not have enough staff. One man sat for probably about 20 minutes before being helped and when he got up to leave, the staff aggressively insisted he stayed after he said he would come back the next day. It was awkward for everyone read more

No way. Don't go. I've tried and tried but it's laughable how bad it is. I glad a mani and pedi and my nails were cut so short and the polish on my feet needed another coat and looked like a blind person did it. read more

Worse experience I've ever had at a nail salon. My gel pedicure lasted 15 mins/ 20 mins TOPS. They have the cute kids chair and my daughter still had a good experience but her mani/pedi lasted 15 mins total. Insane for how much I paid. read more

I had a very nice experience at La Vie Nail Spa, while I was there on a Monday running errands. My godmother recommended this place to me since it is her go to salon in the Napa Valley. This was my first visit and I would definitely go back if I'm in the area next time. Very spacious salon with many chairs for pedicures, as well as tables to get a manicure. $35 for a gel manicure. I always select OPI colors because I believe they last longer and they do not irritate my skin. The color I am wearing on my nails in the photo is "Brisbane Bronze". Nice people working here. I would recommend this to anyone who is local or in town for wine tours and in need of a little attention to your nails. read more

I don't recommend this nail salon. Extremely rude, believe the reviews on here! I didn't read them previously and happened to be shopping in the area, so thought this is convenient, but I regret this stop. I've been going to nail salons since I was 16 and this was not a great experience from the beginning, the owner/manager is very condescending and grabbed my hands in such a way I almost thought it was my fault, not pleasant at all. And then to ask me if I was nervous, no um I'm in shock with how you grabbed someone's hands to wrap their nails, I was also sitting in the massage chair so not easy to move to your liking. I was also asked to pick out my color prior to wrapping and I had only had the samples for 2 minutes! I came here after a stressful week, hoping to have some relaxation, but I decided to leave even without getting color on my nails because this place has terrible vibes all around! Not friendly at all, Then she said "oh you're going to regret not getting color" nope lady I won't, it's my decision, happy to walk away. Even the workers seem unhappy. Avoid this place, go to Eco nails or Allure, all you have to do is be kind, provide a great and relaxing service. read more

Very quick, basic and not pampering at all! Barely covered all my nails and when questioned the reply was,"it's a light color". not worth the $75 for a 30 minute mani/pedi service!! Not even busy! read more

Went with my sister who was visiting from out of town to get a pedicure. I was shocked at how rude the ladies were. It was almost as if it was a bother that we were there. When paying we needed change and she acted like she should be keeping the full amount for tip. When that didn't happen the attitude got worse. We were both shocked and oblivious won't go back. Being in their phones and getting their tip was the only priority. read more

These ladies go above and beyond. I have yet to find a better salon anywhere. You leave with beautiful nails and not a trace of callous left! I love everything about it here down to the bright purple towels. This is my happy place. Thank you La Vie! read more

Been twice, giving a chance, both pedicures. Bad both times. Low quality work. It seems the employees are well-trained to do the wrong thing. Three times I caught them trying to cut or break the corner of my big toenail. Even after i said NO Clipping. (i clip my own) Finally, she snuck it in while i was relaxing. Now this toenail has become ingrown and painful. I could go back every few weeks to have it cut out again and again, but that's why they do it, isn't it? Not just a rip-off, but dangerous, too! Secondly, the pedicurist and i discussed No Massage, please. None. Although there is the language barrier, i know she understood. And, you guessed it, she massaged. i gave her the evil eye. She didn't forget, she just couldn't get it. She even reached up and turned on the massage chair! I mean, how many instructions can i give and corrections can i make in one $40!! pedicure? read more

**UPDATE** I gave them multiple chances but this place is just horrible. They up charge everything or lie about the cost then charge more later with BS excuses, they don't care about appointments so don't bother making one and they basically force you to pay cash (ATM on site). They lied to my kid about including the tip on a gift certificate purchased for my birthday and refused to take the balance on the gift certificate (which was paid for in cash) as tip. I will never go back read more

Mediocre pedicure. Employees on the unfriendly side. Won't be back. I just don't need that kind of energy.

I really never write bad reviews but today Its a must. I went last night to get a pedicure and am not complaining about that. It was mediocre. It was the orange haired gal that did my pedi. I never tip until all services are done for obvious reasons. My husband was still getting his manicure. Anyhow, I was asked continuously about a tip. I told her to add 10 to the debit card - she asked "10 for each"? I said no just 10, I have cash too. She ended up not putting anything on the card as a tip because she thought I had lots of cash. When I did not, she shoved the venmo sign and said here use this. I did scan it and was going to tip that way, but since she was so forceful and rude I told her I was not going to venmo anything to her. My husband's person was very nice and he ended giving her a nice tip, which she ran out to the rude lady and split with her. Never will I go back and I did frequent there since I live up the street. read more

I have been going here for years. The staff are talented and kind.highly recommend this salon!

My wife wanted to get a pedicure. I tagged along. And had the time of my life. At 35 years old, I didn't know I could experience this level of relaxation & care. I had a pedicure, and a number 5 (shoulders). It was beyond words good. read more
