I needed to find a nail salon where i could become a regular, for both manicures and pedicures. I…read moreno longer want to handle these tasks on my own. I had initially been referred to Bliss Nails on Fletcher Parkway at Jackson Drive. However, when I went there on a Tuesday with a 2:00 pm appointment, it was jammed and the sour man at the door did not make a good impression. Accordingly, I walked out on that day. That brings me to the Nail Studio of San Carlos. It is located directly next to a Starbucks Coffee House I like to visit. One day as I was leaving Starbucks, I looked up and noticed the nail Studio San Carlos. I had a walk in pedicure and everything was perfect. I have since become a regular at the Nail Studio of San Carlos. My technician is Wendy ("Hang") and she is wonderful. Very efficient, and she does a perfect job on both my manicures and pedicures. In addition, Kevin, at the door on the weekends, offers a very gracious welcome. Be sure to pay your respects to the statues of the two gods placed on a lower shelf on the little table to the left of the check-in desk!

I've been coming here for years and have always been pleased with the service, which is why today's…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. Two different people worked on my hands and feet, and the quality of the work was simply unacceptable. I had to ask them to redo several nails because they were poorly done. It felt like the focus was on getting customers in and out as quickly as possible rather than providing the quality service this salon used to be known for. The work was rushed, careless, and not at all what I've come to expect from this salon. I hope management takes this seriously. If the salon is going to increase prices or promote upgraded services, the quality and attention to detail need to match. Based on today's experience, I'm very disappointed and will seriously reconsider returning.

Both services were reasonably priced. The spa is small but clean and bright. The staff were friendly, and there's plenty of parking right outside. The only minor hiccup was a brief communication mix-up (English isn't everyone's first language here), but once I clearly restated that we wanted pedicures too, they immediately moved us into a booth, and took excellent care of us. Overall, a solid, no-fuss experience. Great for a quick, affordable pamper session. I would definitely return!

HOLLY does my mani and is so fast and efficient. Every month, I get compliments about the different designs (I always pick a nude base so the regrowth isn't noticeable). THUY does my pedicure and she is the best at massaging my calves. She also really takes her time to clean up my cuticles and scrub off the calluses I have from walking a ton. After coming to the salon for 10yrs now, I was even able to convince my boyfriend to try a professional pedicure for the first time. He now comes with me for a monthly pedicure with DAISY. She always has the best smile on her face is gentle and efficient.

The salon looked clean, and parking was easy. My pedicure was decent, though it felt a bit rushed. The older lady who helped me was kind, but she only went over my heels once--and very lightly--so it didn't feel as thorough as I expected. For the full set, the person who started my nails handed me off to a man to finish without saying anything. It wasn't a big issue, but a little courtesy would've been appreciated. Overall, the vibe in the salon didn't feel very attentive, possibly because it was a Saturday around 5:00 pm. Still, for the convenience, I'll come back for my fill and another pedicure.

I came in with two friends for pedicures, and we accidentally showed up about 30 minutes before closing. Even so, the ladies were incredibly kind and welcoming. They were super gentle and did such a great job. I love that they offer different levels of pedicures and manicures depending on how pampered you want to be. I got the $20 pedicure and was genuinely so happy with the results. What really stood out to me, though, was the atmosphere. It reminded me of the kind of nail salons you'd find years ago -- simple, relaxed, and no-frills in the best way. These days, so many places feel overly fancy and intimidating, and the prices reflect that. This place felt comfortable, approachable, and focused on doing a good job without all the extra fluff. I'll definitely be back. Give them a shot!

Both my daughter and I got pedicures and my daughter also got a manicure, no gel (my daughter is 10). They said they couldn't do a design on her nails cause she wasn't getting gel, they could only use stickers? My pedicure was mediocre, I've never had a tech immediately go in with an electric file. I guess she assumed I had gel on my toenails? I paid for the pamper me pedi, but it felt very basic. The pedicure itself was sloppy. My daughter's pedicure was good. However her manicure chipped in a day. I get that regular polish chips much more quickly than gel, but if they only want to work with gel polish, then they shouldn't offer regular polish. I was disappointed in the end. It felt like we were being penalized for not getting gel. Even though we had an appointment, I felt like we were in the way. I'm so sad, I really thought I had found my nail shop.

Not a good lash experience. Cindy arrived for the appointment late. She rushed in and told me to…read morelay on the table as she removed her sun glasses and placed her cell phone on her lap. I asked if she needed a minute to settle herself and prepare the room and she said no. I then asked her to wash her hands prior to starting (as she would be touching my face and since she just came in and hadn't prepared the room or anything...and I don't know where her hands had been just before she arrived). She gave me attitude but I asked her again, and even said, "or use hand sanitizer." She grudgingly went to the bathroom, turned on the water for 3 secs, loudly grabbed paper towels, balled them up and returned. So, it was clear that hands were not washed. At this point, I'm regretting the decision to have given this place a try despite some of the negative experiences I've read about. But, I decided to make the best and see if it can be a good experience after all. She begins, and does not clean or prep my lashes...AT ALL. She puts tape on my undereye area, sticks some things on my forehead and starts applying the lashes. When I told her that I noticed she didn't put anything on before starting, she told me that she doesn't use anything because they contain alcohol which isn't good. After a few minutes, she takes my hand, puts a fan in it, telling me to hold it there for a bit and that I'm done. I said, what? I look at the clock and it's been 7 minutes. Yes, SEVEN minutes!!! I tell her that I have never had my lashes done in seven minutes. She told me that she's fast and that she's been doing lashes for 15 years. Once I get up and look in the mirror, my lashes on the right side are not straight. She said it was because my natural lashes were curly. I told her I've had my lashes done plenty of times and have never had that issue. I had to ask several times for her to fix it. To her credit, she did finally have me lay back down to correct the visibly crooked placement. But the final product was definitely below standard. I was in and out in under 30 minutes (mind you, we started late). When I got home, I looked in my magnifying makeup mirror. The lashes are sloppily applied and glue chucks are visible and can be seen on my eyelid. I definitely won't be going back.
