Melody Salon is hands down such a community gem. The artist who worked with me was Summer, I've been seeing her since I moved here 7 years ago and I've developed a great relationship with those who are there. It was the day of my graduation ceremony and she completely fulfilled my request for a manicure with gel. Her recommendation, detail orientation and gentleness exceeded my expectations. I will always keep coming back!! read more

I see Summer for pedicures and eyebrow waxing. Summer does a beautiful job with my gel pedicure. She is very skilled and precise. I recently got eyebrow tinting. I love it. Summer mixed the perfect shade of dark brown for me, and she took her time getting the measurements of the eyebrows before she started applying the tint so the eyebrows looked natural and great afterwards. read more

What a disappointment! Over promise and under deliver! I've never had a bad experience here. I called asking if they had anyone who could do ombré nails. They said yes so I made an appointment and showed up ten minutes early. I showed them a picture of what I wanted and they said they could do it. After they removed my old polish, they backpedaled and said they couldn't do it. Not only that, the gal had another appointment in 45 minutes so I couldn't even get the full pedicure experience. Rushed out with a sloppy, substandard job just in time for Independence Day! Thanks...I guess. Looks NOTHING like what I asked for! I even showed them a picture! read more

Melody Salon & Spa - Sloppy substandard attempt at ombré nail job! - Nail Salons Near Me - Sacramento, California

Melody Salon never disappoints. They offer friendly service and care at every visit. My nail tech Tim is the greatest! His gel nails never chip or break and look new even after a week of wear. The vibe is relaxing with chill music, new massage chairs and clean restrooms. I recommend getting a luxury spa pedicure. The hot rock calf massage and hot paraffin wax does a great job of circulating blood flow and relieving tension in your feet. Offering a large selection of DND gel colors to choose from, they also have a new CAT EYE collection which is perfect for spring. Don't forget to show your appreciation by leaving a generous tip, the employees deserve it. Thanks Melody Salon for keeping my nails on point. read more

Classic regular manicure for $20 bucks! I arrived at about 1 PM on a Saturday and was out by 2 PM! They definitely push for more expensive services like gel but it wasn't what i was looking for. Super fast service but honestly really strange vibes- unsure it it was a language barrier but half way though the manicure- after cutting and filing- she asked me to pay first and she would do a better job... After I said I wanted to pay at the end she quickly started painting my nails before I could even put my headphones back in. She stopped trying to talk to me at all which was fine but just really awkward. The other thing was that I asked for a rounded almond and she refused to do so saying she knows how to do it better. So the top of my nails are flat and they don't match lol. She also filed them pretty hard on the sides and it was pretty painful at some points. At the end she seemed very displeased with me when I paid with card. Not sure if i would return. read more

I walked into the salon for a well needed pedicure. Summer was the delightful woman who took care of me. She was kind, easy to talk to and she did an amazing job. I got the #3 gel polish pedicure and it looks and feels wonderful. I wanted a design so she called someone over to do that part. The salon is clean, comfortable and inviting. Appropriate music was playing and every customer seemed happy to be there. I'll be a regular for sure! read more

Great service!! My sister and I got in really quick and were very taken care of. Love how they pay good attention to the design/color you want. Will definitely be recommending this place to my family/friends read more

I live in sandals and flip flops for most of the year so monthly pedicures are a must. I've been coming to Melody Salon since I moved downtown and I've always received great service from the staff. They do get busy so I'd recommend appointments or learn best times for walk-ins. read more

Great service, they are kind and meticulous! Highly recommend going here. Central location as well.

Summer is by far the most charismatic and sweetest nail tech I have ever met. She always goes above and beyond when she does my nails and brows !! 10/10 would recommend read more

Been going to Melody Salon for over 18 years and that should say something! Love everything about this place !

It's usually really hard to find a great nail salon these days where you truly feel welcome and relaxed. I found Melody Nails about four years ago, and Summer was the one who greeted me so kindly and made me feel comfortable right away. Summer has been doing my nails and toes ever since, and I always trust her work--especially on my toes, since I deal with an ingrown nail. She takes great care and always does an amazing job. Recently, she also did microblading on my eyebrows, and they turned out amazing! I highly recommend Summer to anyone looking for a new nail salon in the Sacramento/Midtown area. read more

Melody's is my go-to nail salon. I come in for manicures (usually gel but occasionally acrylics) and pedicures. I typically need to make an appointment as they can be busy after work. The nail techs are very detail oriented but also efficient. It's always a relaxing experience. read more

Sumer did my nails tonight with gel-X and did AMAZING! Her attention to detail is insane. I have been switching around nail salons every month for the last year because my regular girl at the salon by my house moved away. Sumer is now my GO-TO technician plus she does my eyebrows and is so fun and friendly! She has gained a new client for life read more

Melody Salon & Spa - My set exactly how I asked - Nail Salons Near Me - Sacramento, California

Unfortunately, this is my first negative yelp review. I received a pedicure from Melody Salon a week ago. Not only was the salon's customer service terrible, but the salon technician cut me twice and walked away while I was sitting there bleeding. A different technician had to come over to assist me while my original technician took her impromptu break. Eventually, my original technician returned only to proceed with cutting back my big toenail so far that it caused a painful infected ingrown toenail. Said blunder has now turned into a staph infection. My entire ankle is swollen and I am struggling to walk. Do yourself a favor by not going here! read more

ATTENTION MIDTOWON HOTTIES ‼ I am an acrylic girlie. I came here for an acrylic fill. The nail tech starts the process and discovers my right thumb has green nail syndrome (the bacteria we all fear). Nail tech proceeded to tell me "It's fine " and he can still give me acrylics I have exactly 2 brains cells and they lmk "THATS NOT WHAT YOU DO"... I literally ask "what is that? Am I okay? What are the home remedies?" He gives me a gel polish and tells me to come back with n 2 weeks. THANK GOD FOR AI because I'm just not completely trusting of men and i upload a pic and ask wtf?! I learn how that this is what a bacteria infection looks like, putting nail polish over it is NOT helpful, and the steps I actually NEED to do so I don't get a goddamn green ass thumb. Not trying to put this nail salon outta business, but they saw my bacteria thumb and said "That's fine. Come back and give us more money." In THIS economy?! In TRUMP's America?! I thought the nail techs had my back, they didn't, and now i just feel compelled to share the PSA. THEY WILL SEE YOUR GREEN ASS NAIL BEDS, PAINT THEM, AND THEN AKE YOUR MONEY. Be warned...‍ read more

I'm a regular here! Great staff. Super friendly. People from the neighborhood regularly come in to say hello, when they pass by the shop. Relaxing music & vibe. The staff will ask if I like my color after painting one nail, before doing the rest to see if I still like it. read more

So happy to find a nail salon within walking distance of my apartment. I walked in on a Monday and was taken care of right away. The space is clean with a laid back vibe. The woman who did my pedicure did an amazing job and took her time. I opted for the pedi with the hot stone massage and was very pleased with my choice. So relaxing. The man who did my manicure was also very good with hand massage. I will definitely be back. read more

I was a walk- in pedicure and fill. Lena was so sweet and treated me with respect. She gave a strong yet gentle massage- I even nodded off. read more

Got a mani/pedi yesterday. Mani by Lena was great as usual but pedi by another gal was painful (my big toe hurts and is still bleeding). I said ow a couple of times. No apolgy instead the technician said loudly that it was my fault, that my toe was dirty and that I was moving around too much. No apology, no discount and insulting in front of every customer. I won't be going there again and hope my toe will not get infected. Sorry Melody salon you have lost my business and will no longer recommend your services! read more

I called ahead and they told me I could get a dip manicure at a specific time. I arrived and it was obvious that all of the technicians were mid-stream with their customers. I was told to wait 10 minutes. 20 minutes later, the male technician started my service. The whole purpose of dip is to wrap to remove to avoid drilling it all off (like acrylic). When this guy started drilling, I reminded him it was dip. He understood. Once I realized he wasn't just removing the top coat but was grinding into my nails, I asked if he planned on wrapping. He said no. Ugh. I couldn't leave with partially removed product so I stuck it out. Almost 2 hours after my scheduled appointment, I had a new dip manicure. It lasted 2 days before starting to chip and peel. NEVER AGAIN THERE. read more

I would rate my experience at Opera a 2.5 out of 5. While there is one particular lady who consistently does an outstanding job and truly deserves a five-star rating for her skills, my overall visit left much to be desired. It's apparent why the place is often empty; they didn't remove my cuticles properly, which is a basic expectation at a nail salon. Additionally, the technicians cut my nails into various uneven shapes, which was disappointing and unprofessional. They didn't seem to take into account the natural shape of my fingers and toes, leading to an inconsistent and unflattering look. Moreover, I was misled about the pricing. They initially quoted me one price, but when it came time to settle the bill, they added on additional small charges that I hadn't anticipated. It felt like they were trying to take shortcuts, and unfortunately, this resulted in a very sloppy job overall. I left feeling unsatisfied with my pedicure. I left in the middle of the section and paid for the full price. I think they need it. read more

What an amazing nail salon! Such a wonderful staff. Di did a phenomenal job on my nails and she was such a joy to chat with. Thank you so much! We will be back read more

Friendly staff. I usually can just walk in and don't have to wait that long. I just wish there were more of a color selection. The staff is always consistent when I get a pedicure. read more

The guy that works here is very rude. Several times he growled at me in annoyance and yanked my hand around. No conversation, was too worried about the bets he had going on his phone, and very subpar at nails. Decent price but I won't go back here. read more

Its fine, nothing too bad or too great about it. Definitely somewhere I would go for last minute if I can't get an appointment at my regular salon read more

Melody Salon & Spa - Mani pedi I got last time - Nail Salons Near Me - Sacramento, California

We had a great experience here! I called at 11:20 to see if they had time for a gel removal. They said come on in. When I walked in there were 4 techs there and and their last client had just left. They were able to fit me in for a gel manicure in addition to the removal. My dad and fiancé came to sit with me and they were able to get a pedicure and manicure as well! We were all out within 45 min but the service was FANTASTIC. Best gel manicure I've had in years. They are thin, cover the whole nail, and the color is exactly what I asked for. Each of the services came with a relaxing massage. Will definitely be back the next time we're in Sac. Edited to say- they opened fresh packages of tools, wore masks, and spaced the clients out. Tim was my tech- ask for him! read more

My sister and I walked in here the other day. When we walked in it immediately felt not right. They looked at us like they were surprised to see us there and they were yelling at each other and the lady we were talking to came up to us and she looked really nervous and really scared. She whispered that we'd have to come back later as if she was hiding it from the man that worked here. We ended up leaving and not even getting our nails done here but all the people getting their nails done in there looked scared too. Also it smells weird and like beyond the acetone smell. Would not recommend. read more

$45 dip manicure didn't include massage or cuticle care. However, it did turn out nice and lasted nearly 2 weeks before chipping.
