    This was AFTER pedicure. I was getting up putting my shoes in. Feet felt super dry so thought I'd look.... Glad I did.

    Customer service lies. I was not provided a full refund. This is the absolute worse nail shop ever and that's saying a lot after 45 years of pedicures.

    Where do I start!! I have been coming to Nail Fever for a year now specifically going to see Emily and when I first came, I was taking a risk but I wanted fun birthday nails with kind of a crazy design and when I tell you Emily ate that up and has continued to eat it up every time!! I've been going consistently to Emily once a month for a year and every design I've come with she's done with no flaws. She's never complained about a design. She always thanks me for challenging her which is exactly what you want in a nail tech :) every time I leave obsessed and she always fits me in no matter what. I really do believe they go above and beyond and you will not see me at any other nail establishment. I travel from Walnut Creek to Antioch and literally drove in an hour of traffic yesterday just to see my girl so you know i'm loyal :)

    My gel manicure turned out absolutely beautiful! I went with a soft pink, oval design, with chrome finish. The technician executed it perfectly and was very attentive. The color is classy and versatile and goes with everything. The quality is excellent and they look freshly done even days later. Highly recommend!

    I needed to get a soak off asap and was doing some research to find a great nail place since my boyfriend lives nearby. I'm so happy to have chosen this salon because I'm obsessed with my nails! I chose a very simple, natural color to have every day and Sophia delivered. She was very careful with the nail drill and when I expressed that it felt hot at one point, she was more cautious afterwards. Cuticle removal was also meticulous and not once was I cut. The gel polish was applied evenly and there were no bubbles or unevenness which I appreciate--being picky with my nails. The salon itself was very clean and spacious, with many spa chairs for pedicures and manicure tables. I paid a total of $51 ($40 for gel mani, $10 soak off--with service, and $6 tip but 10% off when you pay cash) which is quite reasonable compared to other places anywhere in the bay. I will definitely be rebooking with Sophia and recommend her to anyone just looking for a great gel mani.

    Technician went deep along the critical. I never had that done before

    Went for a pedicure before my vacation. Ended up with an infection. Limped around putting thousands of steps in on vacation in a different country.

    Would not recommend! Came in for a pedicure the lady was extremely rough and cut my toe to where they were bleeding. I asked her if it was ok to continue with my toe bleeding like that seemed unsanitary to me but she is the professional not me she said I would be fine. Now the next day my toe is red and pus is coming out. She cuticles way too much to where she took my skin off. I have never experienced someone that bad there is no way she is licensed to be doing pedicures

    I went in January to get my nails done since my regular shop was closed and had such a great experience! My technician thao took her time and made sure my nails turned out exactly how I wanted them. Everyone there was so kind and welcoming, and the prices are very reasonable. I will definitely be going back!

    I came in taking my mother in law for her b day, we both got our nails done but couldn't sit next to each other ... which was already weird. I asked but they couldn't accommodate... The inso pic compared to what I got.... Omg ... I was so upset, I asked for flowers and she Drew them ... and I immediately asked her to take it off I asked her where the gold was and she said this was the colors I chose... I said I chose the color for the base of the nail... this looks nothing like the picture. The tip looks janky.. My hands feel hella Dry, I got nicked a couple times and I am so unhappy with my nails .... I had to cure my nails after every single paint and my skin... literally felt like it was burning I am bummeddd cause I left just pisssedddddddd Had to pay $145 for both mine and my mother in laws

    I'm new to the area, and finding a nail tech I connect with has been a bit of a challenge--especially since I really loved the salon I used to go to. I decided to give this place a try, and I'm so glad I did! Emily was wonderful--she helped me schedule my appointment and was super accommodating when I needed to make a last-minute change. I was seen right on time, which I really appreciated. Tyler did my nails and was both professional and efficient. He did a great job on my manicure, and I was happy with the results. The salon was very clean, and I noticed all the tools used looked sanitized and well-maintained. I also really liked the calm and peaceful atmosphere--it was such a nice change from some of the busier, noisier salons I've been to in the past. The pricing felt fair for the quality and service provided. Overall, I'm planning to return and am hopeful this will become my new go-to nail salon!

    I've been going Nail Fever, primarily Emily, for about 3 years. She always does an amazing job. Nails last forever! Meaning no lifting, it may have happened twice, but I think she was changing brands, besides that never had issues with the nail work done. Nails definitely get a 5 stars! Pedicure, only had it done once there. Maybe one of my first few visits. I did get the basic. That's my go to when trying out a new place. I never made a review about it because honestly I felt indifferent about it. Not impressed, but not disappointed. My daughter had also gone, she wanted to get crystals on her toes, I wasn't with her, but I was paying for it, and she kept texting me sending me pictures, came out a little messy. The main reason for my 3 star is basically for the service itself. When you enter the salon, are you being acknowledged, when you book appointments, when you ask for certain modifications or add ons, or simply saying anything... Back to the service. Sometimes I don't know which Emily I'm going to get. Sometimes she's very nice, pleasant and other times she has a vibe that's very cold and unpleasant. Just as others have said in their reviews, and I always just chalk it up since I knew my nails would come out exactly how I like every time. The last straw. I called to make an appointment like I always do, and it was as if she was clueless to who I was, a bit abrupt on the phone. She let me know she didn't have availability. But she's done this before only to call me and say she made a mistake. This may be minor to some, but this is 3 years of sometimes great customer service & sometimes not so pleasant customer service. I've decided I'm no longer brushing the customer service off. I want consistency. I deserve both. Know Emily does great work. If service doesn't matter to you...for sure keep going.

    I wanted to give this place a try because I can't find a good place in Brentwood. So happy I found this little gem. Not a place you go to if you want your nails done fast but they make up for it in quality. I'm so used to having my nails and toes done at the same time but I like how they separate it. They are very clean and meticulous. I can only vouch for Emily, Tyler and Thao... I haven't been with anyone else yet. But looking around I can tell some are very talented. You just have to give them a try. I also had to get emergency nails done and they squeezed me in! The prices are reasonable. They do not take credit card, only cash or debit.

    No cuticle oil just cracked and dried and they made me pay $30 I'm so mad!

    I am going to share my experience of attempting to purchase. The Beauty Facials, which are $185, I…read morescheduled two appointments for the same day. One was canceled at 6:30am and another at 7:30. Both 4 hours before the appointment. I asked to reschedule due to the last-minute cancelation, but she never responded. One reservation was for someone who is on Yelp Elite, and the other person is heading back to the East Coast on Jan 2nd. Also, the refund of the two $25 deposits would take 5-7 business days. I ended up disputing the charges with my credit card company and got the money back immediately. Moral of the story is eventhough you schedule your appointment window, pay for the deposits and put in requests to take time off from work, you're still at the mercy of the business owner and when she decides to work.

    Wish I could leave a 0 star review and this would definitely be my first ever. We contacted this…read moreperson who showed availability for two facials back to back, which was a Christmas gift for myself and a friend. The appointments were set for early am. About an hour before the first appointment, I got a message that the masseuse was sick and we needed to reschedule. I felt that was very unprofessional, but I still decided to leave it as that. Then an hour later, my friend gets the same message. It seemed pretty odd that she didn't message us at the same time but basically we both felt like our appointments were replaced, or she forgot to close that slot and cancelled our appointments because she may have had plans. Even after all that, we still decided to see if we could do another day. The lady messaged us back saying if she feels better, she will reach out to us to set another appointment. Well, we never heard back. This was something that we were both looking forward to and for whatever reason, other than what was communicated, we weren't able to enjoy our Christmas gifts.
