    French tips

    Nails by Kim! It was a great experience and she was very friendly. It was also really quick and her service is great. I really like the designs on the French tip!

    I recently moved to San Diego and was in search of a new nail place. I initially made an appointment for 10am, but received a call back and asked to move my appointment to 10:30. However, when we arrived at 10:30 it seemed they were not expecting us and thought we were coming at 10. I was surprised to hear this, but miscommunications happen. I would suggest calling to confirm your appointment the day of. My main issue is the quality of my nails, which surprised me given the 4.5 stars rating. I got a basic gel manicure and regular pedicure. My pedicure was rushed through and the coats were uneven. It looked like I did it myself. However, it was the gel manicure that was truly disappointing. As you can see from the pictures there is polish on my hands and fingers and all over my cuticles. The coats again were uneven and some of my skin around my nail is now a pinkish color. Overall, I am very disappointed in the entire experience and that this will not be my new nail spot.

    What I had asked for.

    I had a horrible time at the nail studio. The nail tech was rushing me and my friend the whole time and didn't even do what I asked for. The only reason this place has 5 star reviews is because he forces you to write one when you leave for a "15%" discount. The discount is exactly what it says they charge on the website

    I love this place! they're incredibly accommodating, professional, and they KNOW nails!! I've never seen someone do a set of Acrylics so well and also quickly if you happen to have time constraints. I just got the Gel X today and told them to just make my nails sexy and they delivered! Love my nails and ready for a night out! Highly recommend!

    I just moved here, so I looked on yelp for a new nail spot and found this gem! I got my toes done by Chloe and Alex did my GelX nails, both turned out so pretty!! They were so accommodating and welcoming, even gave me a percentage off for my next visit! I'm super particular with my nails so I'm happy I went here

    Staff is friendly. Pedicure was decent. So far holding up but only been 2 days. My dip powder manicure (on my nails no extensions) looks terrible. Like a regular polish manicure after 2 days!!!! Waste of $40.....totally pissed.

    I've been to a few nail salons in Downtown, San Diego and this salon has been by far the best. I didn't enjoy the gel color that I initially picked out, but they were quick to correct it and now I LOVE the new color they proposed to me. FANTASTIC prices as well!

    Quality acrylic gel manicure. Good music. Welcoming setting and vibes. Had no issues getting through to make a same day appointment. Took me right on time. The result was exactly what I had envisioned and asked for. Alex listened to what I wanted and asked me to let him know along the way if I wanted to change anything. He tried out my color and asked my opinion before proceeding (something I really appreciate - it's the little things). I chose gel color 37 which is a sparkly clear/white. He offered to put a white base coat under it if I would like. I decided to do that, and I absolutely love my nails (the color, length, and shape). Alex is enjoyable to chat with and very talented. Thank you for the great customer service & experience. I will definitely be back!

    I had such an incredible experience at La Di Da Sugaring! I booked a facial with Azure, and I…read morehonestly can't recommend her enough. Azure is one of those rare people who is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. She made me feel completely comfortable from the moment I walked in, took the time to assess my skin, and explained everything she was doing throughout the treatment. My skin looks brilliant, radiant, refreshed, and healthier than it has in a long time (early 40s takes its toll!) One of the biggest wins was that she was able to remove a ton of stubborn blackheads that had been bothering me, and my skin feels so much smoother because of it. She also gave me thoughtful, personalized recommendations for my skincare routine going forward without ever making me feel pressured to buy products. The space itself is clean, modern, calming, and with a beautiful view overlooking Balboa Park, which made the entire experience feel even more relaxing. If you're looking for an esthetician who is knowledgeable, genuinely caring, and delivers amazing results, I highly recommend booking with Azure. I'll absolutely be back and will be recommending her to my friends and family!

    Highly highly highly recommend sugaring and especially this studio if you've never tried sugaring…read morebefore. I used to wax with regular wax and one time I tried hard wax and had a really bad reaction. I had heard of sugaring, but had never tried it. I live in Bankers Hill and I saw there was a sugaring studio called La Di Da Sugaring. I made an appointment to give it a shot and I absolutely loved it and would never go back to any other kind of wax. I used to get ingrown hair with regular waxing and since starting sugaring, I have never had any ingrown hairs or red bumps. I now recommend sugaring to everyone. This review is for Isabella. Isabella is detailed-oriented, super kind, and I love our chats when I visit. Thank you, Isabella, for making my visits comfortable and welcoming. No complaints about this studio. The only thing I would mention is that parking is hard to find, so if you live close by you should walk there.

    The Gold Standard for Painless Waxing!…read more I never thought I would use the words "relaxing" and "Brazilian wax" in the same sentence, but here we are! I am currently 35 weeks pregnant, and this was handsdown the most comfortable experience I've ever had. The Atmosphere & Experience From the start, the booking process was incredibly easy. The studio itself is spotless and features such thoughtful, homey touches, I loved the philology-inspired decor! What really set it apart, though, was the heated mattress pad. It made it so easy to settle in and actually enjoy the session. Why It's Different If you have a low pain threshold or are nervous about feeling awkward, this is the place for you. Zero Awkwardness: She made me feel so empowered and comfortable in my own body. The Technique: She uses expert counter-pressure which makes the process almost painless. I've had many Brazilians before, but this technique is a total life-saver. Final Verdict Whether you are a veteran to waxing or someone who is super uncomfortable with the idea, I cannot recommend this place enough. It was professional, hygienic, and surprisingly soothing. I will definitely be coming back! Thank you Kelly!

    This review is LONG overdue…read more I had an amazing first time with Miss Kelly mid 2024. Before Miss Kelly's Brazil Appeal Waxing, I had been to several other salons. I had been going to one of these salons for at least 3 years. Her suite is currently located in the plaza across H-Mart and 24 Hour Fitness off of Balboa Ave in a secured building on the second floor. Her suite is cozy for Miss Kelly, her client, and the equipment she needs. I highly recommend Ms. Kelly and her services - both to those who are sensitive to pain, and even the "veterans" who have learned to "tough it out." Before booking, please take the time to read her website. You will notice that her pricing is higher than the regular waxing/sugaring establishments. This is because she takes her time prepping you and doing the wax itself, which is also why your appointment will be longer (this varies, of course). This is why the pain level is much more tolerable, and makes the price worth it. It has been a while since my first appointment with Ms. Kelly, but I have returned several times since. I unfortunately had to pause my appointments with her, but await the day that I can resume my appointments. Ms. Kelly is a gem and I CANNOT recommend her enough!

This was my very first time getting a Brazilian wax, so naturally, I felt uncomfortable, insecure, and super vulnerable having to expose myself down there. But Fabiola made the whole experience so much better. She reassured me that there was absolutely no judgment and nothing to feel embarrassed or ashamed about, which immediately helped me feel more comfortable. I'm not going to lie, it definitely hurt the first time, but it was bearable because she talked me through everything and kept me distracted from the pain. And she was right, it really does get easier with every session! I'm also a pretty shy person and not the best at socializing, but Fabiola somehow knows how to get you talking and feeling comfortable with her. That makes such a huge difference, especially when you're already nervous about the service. I definitely want to try some of their other services in the future, but for now, I can say this is such a great place for first-timers. If you've been wanting to get a Brazilian but feel nervous, shy, or embarrassed about it, I highly recommend coming here and seeing Fabiola!

I have thick brows that are easy to shape but this person who did mine -- Nahida, threaded my eyebrows too thin and uneven. Her hand also smelled of whatever food she was eating I'm guessing prior. I seriously didn't even want to comment about it but after my service and seeing how thin she did my eyebrows, I am so disappointed. The next day, I also woke up to wounds around my eyebrows :/ overall a bad experience. This was in the beginning of July. I went to a different salon for August and this lady, who saw me for the first time, also said whoever did my brows last made it too thin and unevenly shaped. Now I have to wait two months to grow it back. The salon is great, don't get me wrong. Almost always there is a line so it's not a quick visit. Price is pretty standard for SD. Just saying I hope this person does her job better.
