I was looking for a nail salon to help me stop picking my cuticles and asked for a capped builder nail manicure. Nancy was SO attentive, patient, and gentle. People also kept checking in to see if I was doing ok. Amazing experience and I will 100% be back!!! read more

I wanted to update my review. I made an appointment to get gel x for my second visit here. I booked online with Natalie. When I arrived at my appointment time, I checked in, gave them my name and the worker told me a few minutes wait. For a Friday, they were busier and much busier than the Friday I was there the first time. I waited for about 15 minutes and another worker, I believe may have been the owner, asked me for my name and asked if she could help me. I told her I had an appointment at 5pm and I assume they are running behind. I finally got seated and I showed the technician my photo and what I wanted. I had another meeting after and didn't want to be late, since online the appt time scheduling said it was an hour 15 min for gel x. But she did get it done with an hour, however I felt like there were things that were not done during my service. She didn't wipe the nail dust under my nails and I have a build up which made my nails look "dirty". I tried to wash off but it stuck and I'll have to wait till next time to get it removed. Overall, the nails from the top look great, but I was annoyed that I had to wait for 15 minutes and gave my name twice which I felt like they didn't check in on me. read more

Amazing experience! This was my first time here and the nail artist did an amazing job and was super gentle. 10/10 will be back! read more

They have consistently always done such an amazing job with whatever crazy nail design I bring in; they also very clearly prioritize the customer experience, going above and beyond with their lotion and hand towel at the end of service. I've never seen a salon that cares so much about how the service is going, regularly checking in with each client during their service. The salon is incredibly aesthetic as well, the interior design which immediately is warm and relaxing. You really can't go wrong with any of the nail techs! read more

I love it, it's so relaxing and beautiful! The best part is the care they in making sure you enjoy your services!!

After hearing raves about this place on TikTok, I had to give it a try! I was pleased to find out that they do cat-eye designs and have a variety of jelly-style nail polishes as well. I booked my appointment, and they texted me ahead of time to let me know they were running behind, which I really appreciated. Other nail salons sometimes have you waiting without notice, so I appreciated the great communication from this salon. When I walked in, I was immediately seated and offered water and a snack. They had instrumental music playing in the background that gave Bridgerton vibes (iykyk). After signing in, Luna, my nail technician, got to work. She did almond-shaped builder gel nails with pink cat-eye polish. She was very detailed and always asked if everything was to my liking. Overall, they turned out amazing! I'm so glad I tried this salon, and I definitely recommend that you do too! read more

My new go-to nail spot! Saw this pop up on tiktok and what drawn me in was the aesthetics and overall ambience. I was also looking for a new salon so this was perfect timing. Once you walk in, it absolutely felt warm and bright. The pop instrumental music makes it even more cozier and inviting. The owner is super friendly along with all her staff! They even give a snack/water while waiting which I appreciated it. Natalie did my nails twice and both times she did amazing! She's super gentle, takes her time, and pays lots of attention to detail. I didn't feel rushed and felt like I could relax and enjoy my experience. This time I opted for a chrome polka dot design and she nailed it! They also have a wide range of colors from cat eye, jelly, gel, etc. Another lady also did my pedicure as they were offering 30% for their soft opening and she also did an amazing job. I never felt so relaxed at a salon and appreciated all the details and gestures that were put into their new salon. They also have Aesop soap at the sink (my fav). Highly recommend. Thank you must have nails!! read more

Must Have Nails - Nails by Nini! Loved the shape, color, and design! - Nail Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I have been getting my nails done for over a decade (not very frequently though). I used to get cheap acrylic nails done by a random lady next to my high school & the nails were rarely uniform and were pretty thick. I loved them. Basically, that's to say that I didn't really have many expectations getting my nails done as an adult. I found Must Have Nails on Yelp, and since they had so many positive reviews, I bit the bullet and booked for today at 13:30. There was some sort of scheduling error & the woman at the front asked to see my confirmation (thankfully it was correct, or I would've disintegrated from embarrassment lmao). The women all kept apologizing, but I wasn't in any sort of rush, so I happily waited. My appt finally started at around 13:45-13:50. Also, the entire salon had relaxing music, nobody was speaking too loudly or anything, and there was such a lovely smell the entire time. The tech who did my nails today was Luna. She initially started off kind of shy, but once I started talking about animals with her, she excitedly showed me a picture of her dog, and we chatted about different animal-related things. I opted to do Gel-X, since I love how thin and natural they look. The entire time Luna and I were chatting. She didn't take her eyes off my nails and thoroughly worked on them and focused on them while still maintaining conversation. I had a design in mind, but more so as just a guideline, and told Luna she could have creative freedom to do what she liked. She very effortlessly worked and the final product, to me, outdid the reference photo I showed her, which is incredible! I also appreciated that, after applying and shaping my nails, but before doing any design, Luna went over the price with me. That shows there was no chance of random added-on charges (and actually, she ended up making it lower than anticipated!). I paid via Venmo and also was able to tip Luna directly with the app. Since it was my first visit, they also gave me a cuticle oil! It was overall a bit pricey, but in my opinion, the price absolutely matches the quality. All in all, I will absolutely be going here again! Maybe after saving up a lil, but still! read more

I've been to Must Have Nails about six times now, and they never disappoint! Because I often book last-minute, I've had the chance to work with several different nail techs -- and every single one has been amazing. They're incredibly detail-oriented, thoughtful, and always make sure I'm happy with the shape and color. (I usually get builder gel for reference.) The studio itself has such a great vibe -- clean, organic-chic, and very relaxing. Chloe at the front desk is the sweetest; she's always bubbly and welcoming, and makes sure I have a beverage and snack before each appointment. Highly recommend coming here if you want a high-quality experience and consistently beautiful nails! read more

Must Have Nails - Soft French! - Nail Salons Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

For my birthday, my daughter treated me to a Pedicure Package that includes massage, feet mask and different oil/cream scrub at Must Have Nails salon. It was the first time that I received such wonderful treatment. After an hour and a half, my feet and legs felt so soft and my mind was lifted . It was truly relaxing . The ambience is very nice, the deco is simple yet elegant, the chair was comfy. Everyone was polite and courteous. The whole thing really elevated the experience, especially with KIM, my nail tech. She was very attentive, professional and thorough. She's done a fantastic job rejuvenating my "boring" and dried feet/legs. I couldn't be more pleased ! The receptionist , Chloe, was pleasant . She served me beautiful champagne and chocolates as part of the package. At the end, the manager, Natalie, came over and gently checked on customer service to make sure I was satisfied. What a team! Thank you Must have Nails ! read more

Every visit to Must Have Nails has been a luxurious experience! They truly put so much care and effort into making sure your experience is the best it could be. Starting with the madeleines and water (or tea) to the serene music, it's such a relaxing environment! My favorite was the hot cocoa and candy canes with my pedicure during the holidays! Every tech has done an incredible job with my nails, both in appearance and ensuring they last for a few weeks (which is an incredible feat for me)! Nancy did an exceptional job on my nails this last visit, and I finally just had to take a minute and write this review! 10/10! One of these days, I'll make a Sunday appointment just so I can meet Kookie, Naomi's adorable corgi!! read more

Brought a group of 5 girlies here to get their manis & pedis done for a surprise early bachelorette gift and it was supper amazing! Staff was super friendly and super sweet, and made an effort to put us all near each other! That can be so difficult to do when you're coming on the weekend, so I appreciate the thought. (I was only getting a mani and everyone else was getting a pedi so they let me sit in the comfy chairs to be close to my friends). The place was overall really clean and well kept! They also gave us a choice of tea, water, or coffee during our service and some snacks as well. I loved that! Luna, thank you for your amazing service! You were so attentive and precise in replicating my inspo design!!! I really appreciated how thorough you were! read more
