I love going to Maile's Nails. Originally, I went for pedicures and then ventured to gel nails and was totally hooked when Nami did my nails. She's a wonder with color as well as design, always creative and open to ideas. Today we decided to go with a Halloween/Beetlguise theme. We are already talking about what to do for November and we both like the idea of diminutional rain drops. Can't wait! The salon is on 3rd Ave with metered street parking or parking is available in the parking building just a short walk across the street on the west side of 3rd. Maile's salon chairs are very comfortable and current COVID protocol is followed. A trip to Maile's is always relaxing for me. read more

So I went for a fill and something simple and my nails came out bumpy and thick and shaping was not that good even though the shaping I had before I got the full was perfect . I feel like in these times all nail techs should be aware of leaving customers with bumpy clumpy nails because it doesn't even fit the standards anymore. Learn newer techniques to keep your business growing I do not recommend coming here if you like nice nails they will literally come out BUMPY read more

Tech name: LeAnn. Services I got: new full set acrylic with gel & mini design, cuticle remover, pedicure, eye brow waxing, and mini facial. Total I paid: $123 that includes a $20 dollar tip. Customer service: GREAT! I called to see if they had any open spots and squeezed me right in with out even knowing that i wanted all the services I got today they were friendly upon arrival and not much wait time. Nails: I am very pleased with my nails LeAnn was very nice and held great conversation. Super friendly although she accidentally nicked me a bit she apologized and cleans up the cut. (I have been cut before and you'd be surprised the attitude I would get when I pointed it out to the tech. Not Leann though ! ) Pedi: was done from someone different and didn't get her name unfortunately, but also job well done. Eye brow waxing; I was impressed I have been getting threading for a while and didn't want to make a double trip so decided to do it here LeAnn let me know the wax they use if for people with sensitive skin and it honestly was awesome! It was painless and the way she cleaned up / shaped was exactly how I wanted it ! Mini Facial: soooooo here's where i got caught off guard I thought I was only getting a facial, but LeAnn also did a mini arm, neck and shoulder massage while whatever was on my face was cooking. She removed some difficult white heads (yes it could be painful, but she made sure I wasn't hurting) and even gave me some motherly tips about how to prevent my white head issue in the future lol Anyways topic of this review is I'll be coming again! lol read more

I'm not someone that usually posts reviews, but after this set I have to say something! I came in as a walk in and went with a lady I hadn't gone with before, I used to come here every two weeks about a year ago then I stopped since I work in the medical field. I'm on vacation and was so excited to get my nails done!! And 60$ for this??? My thumb is extremely messy and uneven. I told the lady I wanted a few diamonds on my thumbs and by the time I looked I was so disappointed. To top it off I told her one of my nails was crooked and she told me it will look better once she puts the powder on which I thought was just a lazy thing of her wanting to just cover up the mistake and not reapplying a nail. All my nails are different sizes compared to my other hand and they aren't even filed properly. I'm extremely disappointed and will not be coming back. read more

This is an update, Maile is such a perfectionist, she makes my nails look amazing every time. I highly recommend this nail shop.

I went in for a pedicure and my big toe got infected. The lady was aggressive in getting an ingrown nail out. It was very painful and bleed. I do not recommend this place. This is the first time i got an infection from a pedicure and go regularly. read more

My daughter and I had been coming here for the last two years but today my daughter had her whole nail lost while the manicurist was inexperienced, drilled too hard and what's upsetting is they didn't offer a discount or anything she ended up losing her whole nail bed. They lost two customers today. We won't be returning. Very disappointing. read more

Great customer service, friendly, and sanitary which is great during these times. I've switched over to Maile's nail salon almost year and half ago and it was the beat choice I've ever made. Maile is friendly and lets you know if they are able to take you in as a walk in or offers to set up an app. read more

I was in the area and decided to look up a nail place for a quick pedi. Found this place and decided to go for it since the reviews were 4 stars and higher. Best pedi I've ever had!! The girl was friendly and massaged my legs for 10min or more. I was seriously falling asleep because it felt awesome. I'll be getting my pedis here from now on(: read more

I was driving around Chula Vista looking for a nail place to try so of course I relied on my handy yelp app and started searching. I came across this place with only 10 reviews BUT mostly all 5 star ratings. I decided to give them a try and boy am I glad I did. I called and was able to make an appointment for 30 mins later. I can't believe how many times I've drove right by there and never took a second look. The business is right by fuddruckers in downtown Chula Vista 3rd ave. They have a bunch of polishes and designs displayed on their glass so it's easily seen from outside. Upon first walking in I was pleasantly surprised when only one nail tech asked me what I needed (instead of EVERYONE and they momma staring me down and all asking for what I needed like it usually happens when I go to any other nail place). The girls I did speak to were super friendly and i got sat right away. I got Ronny (I think that was her name) as my nail tech and she was awesome! I got a full set of acrylics with slanted glitter tips. She took her time to make them look very pretty and I was very pleased with how they came out :) price was reasonable, $40 :) I will most definitely be goin back in the near future. read more

I have been going to the same nail salon for 4 years and today I wanted to get my fill and they were fully committed. So I called up Maile's since they were 5 mins away and to be honest I was skeptical but in desperate need of a fill. I am so blown away by how amazing and quick Lucy is. So after today she will be my new nail lady and these pictures don't even do her great work any justice! Fill + gel cost $35. read more

One of the older ladies was doing my pedicure while a younger one did my nails. The lady doing my feet was very rough, and at one point while cutting by the side of the nail, she stabbed me. Today my toe was I pain and I come to find 3 pockets full of pus. Disgusting and I'm not too happy. The two stars go to the girl doing my nails. Very calm, gentle, and sweet, and did a great job with my gel manicure. read more

It's tough to be a Steelers fan in a Charger town. But when I came here to have a Steelers paint job done in time for a trip to Pittsburgh, the staff came through like champions! Rose actually did my fill and she didn't just "do" my nails, she CRAFTED them. They looked great and was worth the nearly two hours it took to get them done. If I had been in a hurry that day, I probably would've started getting antsy at the slow pace but it was worth the time and effort she put in. Linh did the pinstriping and logo design and worked from a small copy of the logo I'd brought in. Again, lots of attention to detail and she took her time to get it all just so. As mentioned earlier, if I had been under time constraints I'm not sure I could have afforded the 2.5 hours it took to do this, but since it was a special order, so to speak, I just let the gals there do their thing. Very affordable and great artistry. BE SURE TO BRING CHANGE TO PLUG THE METERS!!!! read more

This is BY FAR my favorite nail salon in existence. I have been going to this nail salon since I was a child and got my first manicure. Maile and her girls have made me a picky manicure customer, and I constantly am looking for a nail salon to measure up when I am out of town - - none ever has. Maile has a nail artist, Lucy, who does amazing, beautiful nails, and is capable of doing amazing, customized nails. My mom has even asked her to make her nails rainbow colored, with special designs on the top of each nail, and she was happy to try. It came out beautifully. Overall, I always get amazing service here, the atmosphere is pleasant, and the quality of the pedicures and manicures is always consistently amazing. I've gotten a chrome manicure done before and I got compliments for weeks! Maile always tries to fit you in as fast as possible. My family always get our nails done here for any special occasions. This is the place to beat! read more

More 3.5 stars. I got an acrylic fill, gel polsih, and a design on 2 fingers. Want to say I paid $38, without the tip. The spider halloween design is awesome, she freehanded it and did not rush. The lady was nice but a little rough. She filed my nails a bit short and the top pads of a few fingers were sore and felt hot afterwards, I think she clipped me with the drill or file. This was the main reason for the star reduction. I asked for a rounded square shape, it could have been straighter. I'm new to acrylics but felt this was pretty nice. read more

I just moved from the east coast and I can honestly say I'm a satisfied customer. I found this place on accident.

This place was okay but pretty packed. Couldn't understand what they were asking me at times but we got it figured out. I only wanted glitter on my hands and they put it on my toes; okay I'll let that go because I should have been more specific. My fingers are streaky and chunky. Not impressed I paid $61+tips. They were nice though so maybe that's how they keep some of their business. read more

The ladies there aren't so friendly. Lady cleaned after one pedicure spa and went straight to doing my nails without washing her hands.

They didn't do a good job for me in 2016 my names look like they stuck gum squares on them

I love Kathy for my pedicure and Demy for my manicure. They are both really professional

I really enjoy this nail spa. I've never bothered to make an appointment and even when I take my mom we have never had to wait more than 20-30 minutes... but it's worth it. Maile's has good ventilation so you are not trapped in a room of toxic fumes, they have Hot water for the foot basins, it's relatively clean compared to most nail salons, they have a pretty nice selection of nail polish, they take walk-ins, and if you must wait there's a nice coffee bar across the street as well as a smoothie bar to pacify you while waiting. The manicurists are very pleasant, courteous and very through. A few (manicurists) are truly masterful at applying hand painted designs to your daintily painted peds ;-) I have had a half a dozen or more mani/pedis there and haven't been disappointed yet. I am often asked where I get my nails done and I have been reluctant to share my little neighborhood secret but alas, share and share alike ;) ** it's directly across the street from 24 hour Fitness and Cross Streets: Between Center St and Madrona St. read more

I really like this place. It is close to my house, cheap and has great location. Lots of street parking. I went yesterday for very much needed pampering. I got a pedicure and my eyebrows waxed and I ended up so relaxed. It was just what I needed. What I really like about this place is that you don't feel judged. We have all been to a nails salon in that they start speaking their language and makes you wonder if they are laughing at your feet or talking about you......well...this place is not really like that. They don't talk behind your back. They do good waxing. I have heard of places that leave you looking like a chola... [not this place]. :) read more
