highly recommend this nail salon! the salon itself are very cute with complimentary snacks, drinks and waters. the whole place was a vibe and were very accommodating when I brought in my wedding party. Kelsey herself made sure I understood why the wait was long due to it being a weekend and why certain nail techs are needed since we had specific designs as well. everybody's nails looked great at the end! Q Lee worked on my nails specifically and she did an amazing job. read more

Nailoscope - Q Lee's work! - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I decided to give this nail salon a second chance, and unfortunately, it was just as disappointing as the first experience. First, their online booking system is terrible. I tried multiple times to book online and kept running into issues, so I ended up doing a walk-in instead. During my first visit, the nail tech who worked on my nails didn't seem confident in what she was doing, and I left unhappy with the results. I wish I remembered her name. Today, I came back hoping for a better experience and was helped by Michelle. I originally planned to just get a fill, but since I disliked my previous set, I showed her an inspiration photo of what I wanted. Right away, she seemed hesitant and repeatedly tried to persuade me not to do the design I asked for. I get my nails done to feel good and confident, not to be talked out of what I want. She eventually agreed to do it, but the experience only got worse from there. The setup at the station was uncomfortable -- there was only a small arm peg and nowhere to properly rest my hands. While removing my old acrylic, she burned me multiple times with the drill. I mentioned it to her, but she continued anyway. Then during the painting process, because my hands were getting tired from the awkward positioning, she raised her voice at me saying, "You have to keep your fingers up. I keep having to fix it because you keep putting your fingers down." There was no proper hand support, so of course my hands were getting tired. At that point, I was anxious and just wanted to leave, but I stayed and let her finish. When she was done, there was no final cleanup or touch-ups -- she just applied oil and told me to wash my hands. Once I got home and looked at my nails closely, I was extremely disappointed. The final result was not presentable and definitely not worth the $70 plus tip that I paid. This felt like a $50 job at best. Overall, I'm extremely disappointed and will not be returning. read more

Awesome nail salon I checked out today. A few days ago, I had booked my pedicure appointment and although I came 30 minutes earlier they were able to accommodate me right away. Jane did she did great! I also asked for last minute for add ons with eyebrow and upper lip wax. She was sweet and helpful! The space is nice and modern with spacious and cute busy atmosphere. Only bummer is they did not offer me a refreshment, but I noticed many other customers had drinks. read more

Love it here! Callie is so great. She pays such close attention to detail. I've gone here several times with this being the third. I never chose a specific nail tech before because I felt like they're all really great, BUT after today Callie is definitely my go to. She takes her time, she makes sure she goes above & beyond and she's genuinely very friendly. I definitely recommend asking for her! I've gone to MANY nail salons before this one and nothing compares to Nailoscope. The interior is gorgeous, they keep it clean, they offer you complimentary beverages. This is the exact type of nail salon that I wish I knew before trying every other place I've gone to. read more

My friend recommended Nailoscope to me. This is now my top nail salon I have been to in SD! They are on a corner, it is nice & big inside, they offer beverages, they have items for sale. I like that they all wear a black Nailoscope apron. I like the added sparkle items in the business and all of the large windows in the room. The chairs are so comfy & have pillows. They have nail services for children also. My daughter loved Elena! My kiddo loves her little painted on Snowmen! I love my GelX nails! We will definitely be back! read more

Nailoscope - Gel x full set! - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Coming from a nail technician, I was honestly very hesitant to go to a salon since I usually do my own pedicures. But this ended up being one of the best pedicure experiences I've had so far. Tina did my Spa Pedicure, Gel Removal & Gel Reapplication today and she was amazing. She was efficient while still taking her time, especially when it came to cleaning my cuticles and polishing--she would go over them again if needed, which I really appreciated. Her attention to detail stood out, and the whole experience felt very relaxing. As someone in the industry, I know how important time and efficiency are, and she definitely delivered without making the service feel rushed. Everything flowed smoothly from start to finish. Cleanliness was one of my biggest concerns, and they exceeded my expectations. I noticed technicians going to the back to thoroughly scrub and disinfect their tools. The nippers, buffer, and file were clearly single-use and looked completely new. The staff was friendly, and although Tina and I didn't talk much (which I actually preferred so I could fully relax), she did an incredible job. I would definitely come back. Thank you Tina! read more

First appointment with Amy and I'm beyond impressed. She did a short square Gel-X set with milky white tips and the results were flawless. She was patient, detail-oriented, and clearly takes pride in her work. She didn't let me leave until everything was perfect. Exceptional technique and great hospitality, highly recommend. read more

Go see my girl TELLIE- she is the artist I've been looking for! Elena who was doing such a great job on my nails is taking a leave so I tried TELLIE out with NO REGRETS. I miss Elena and wish her the best but when I say perfectionist I mean TELLIE is a perfectionist. Although I only got simple art, it was the prep that was nailed. My nails have never felt stronger and never looked so perfectly cleaned up and shaped. Don't sleep on TELLIE. She brings the vibes and the experience. read more

Nailoscope - Simple heart design - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

A lot of people here to work on nails, but they might be overbooking themselves. I was waiting before being seated, and I waited after I was seated too. I was not offered anything to drink or eat and they took about 4 hours for a simple pedicure and manicure gel. Design was cute, and older lady was nice, but wasn't exactly what I wanted. Another co worker of mine went and waited 40 minutes because her nail lady attended another woman during her appointment. Hope they can hire more people and not over book themselves. read more

I found Nailoscope and and Callie on yelp after doing a lot of research. I brought a hot mess to Callie and she shaped and fixed what I already had and did a super cute set based on my search for cute spring nails. Callie did an amazing job shaping my nails, cleaning my nails beds, and putting attention to detail I creating a trendy polka dot design. I highly recommend Callie and Nailoscope for your next nail salon! read more

QLee gets 5 stars! She did my gel x, I showed her the inspiration photo and gave her creative freedom and she did AMAZING!!! She was so sweet, caring and clearly passionate and I will be going back to her. I got in to the chair quickly and left within 90mins, great service. The nail salon itself was busy but clean and beautiful. Only reason I am giving 4 stars is because the basic $55 gel pedicure massage was nothing more than rubbing lotion on my legs. That may just be the basic pedicure though. Overall very happy and this will be my new salon. read more

Will never be returning. I went in to have them remove the remainder of the dip/gel manicure that I had leftover on my nails and do a basic manicure... the nail technician was very upset about her boyfriend (talked all about it) and apparently so distracted by her breakup that she burned me with the drill!! She said "Ooops did u just burn you?" And kept talking about how sad she was. This hurts so bad and may require a trip to urgent care because it's now infected (3 days later). I wish I had just gone to my regular nail salon and would not trust this place or their technicians after this experience. The rest of the staff was friendly and the vibe was cool, but not for this amount of pain and inconvenience. read more

Callie is beyond talented! She does the most thorough Russian manicure I've ever had, and my nails are finally growing so well thanks to the builder extensions she's been doing for me. The best part about Callie is her taste. I can show her any photo and she executes it perfectly every time. I've stopped overthinking my designs because I just trust her to take care of me. If you want high-quality work and a tech who really "gets" your vision, go see Callie! read more

Nailoscope - Gel X - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I booked an appointment for a pedicure online in celebration of my birthday after having gone 6 years without a pedicure. I took a look at the feedback for Nailoscope and I decided to give it a try! I requested a specific technician in my booking request based on her nail art portfolio. I showed up for my appointment, got seated after a few minutes and it turns out the technician I had requested was not the same technician doing my pedicure. The pedicure itself was good. I showed her a photo of the nail art I wanted, and she helped me pick the base color. Okay, we're off to a good start! However, when it came time to do the nail art, what she ended up doing versus what I wanted were very different. I told her I wanted a single sunflower on each big toe with white petals and a yellow center. When she showed me the nearly finished work on each toe, I pointed out that I wanted a yellow center on each flower similar to the photo. She then proceeded to stick a shiny metallic bead in the center of each flower. This was not at all the look I was going for. It wasn't what I wanted and I didn't have time to point this out during check-out since I had to leave for birthday festivities. It was a bustling place with a lot of customers and technicians hustling around. I liked the complimentary soda. However, I'm not sure if I'll return. I didn't think I asked for crazy nail art. 1 flower! My total bill was $70 (plus tip). And it's a bummer that it didn't turn out more like I had hoped. read more

I tried Nailoscope for the first time with my husband today. From the moment we walked in Kaila, was so friendly and welcoming. We got seated quickly and Nicole did my pedi while Hachi did my husbands pedi. Nicole was so kind. She made sure I was happy with the color and wasn't annoyed when I changed my mind. Hachi gave my husband an amazing massage and took her time. We didn't feel rushed, and they took the time to get to know us personally. I will be ditching my other nail salon to come here now. Thanks! read more

Nailoscope - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I went to Nailoscope at the recommendation of my sister to have my gel manicure repaired. I was able to book my appointment online and select the service I wanted. At the last minute, I decided I wanted a design, which the nail technician was able to accommodate. If you're planning to get nail art, I recommend letting the front desk know when you check in so they can seat you with a technician who specializes in designs. When I booked online, I didn't request a specific technician. The shop is located in a small strip mall with several other businesses, including CorePower Yoga, so the parking lot can get pretty packed and it may take a minute to find a space. The service itself was really good. I opted for a gel removal and a new gel builder set. My total, including tip, was about $92. It's a bit on the pricier side, but it felt worth it. While my nails were being done, I could tell the difference in the quality of the materials they used, and they had a huge selection of polish colors to choose from. I'm now at the one-week mark and there's been no chipping of the polish and the gel layers are still intact. My nails honestly still look like I just got them done yesterday. Based on this experience, I'll definitely be coming back. read more

I've been going to Nailoscope for awhile and highly recommend Callie! She is trained in Russian manicures and builder gel, and her attention to detail is next level.

I stumbled upon Nailoscope on Instagram and also had a client recommend it, so I decided to treat myself there on my actual birthday. I normally don't get pedicures because I've had bad experiences in the past, but I was feeling spontaneous and hopeful. When we arrived, the space was beautiful, luxe, and welcoming. My wife and I both chose pedicures, and I went with the Gold experience to celebrate. Service started off great we were offered drinks and seated comfortably. Unfortunately, things shifted during the service. My technician didn't respond when I tried making conversation which she doesn't have to respond but I was just trying to be kind and ask how her day was going, and while I stayed relaxed and trusted the process, I later noticed my nails were cut very short and uneven leaving my nail crooked. When gel was applied, there were visible gaps and polish outside the nail. When I asked for a cleanup, it felt rushed, and instead of cleaning it up she went in with the cuticle clippers and just cut off my skin. The polish was still there. When asked if I was happy, I said no and showed the issues. The receptionist and owner were kind and offered 15% off and a redo, but with my birthday dinner coming up in just an hour and a half, I didn't have time to stay. I ultimately left feeling defeated and disappointed especially on a day that was meant to feel special. I purchased the gold pedicure service and didn't even finish it due to this nail tech and her nasty attitude when I said no. She snatched the toe separator off my toes that was one and she dropped a nail buffer I picked it up for her and tried giving it to her she snatched it out my hands gave me a nasty look and sucked her teeth. Keep in mind I was nice during this whole time didn't raise my voice or get loud or even be rude I was just trying to not cry at how bad my toes looked. Again the owner seemed nice and wanted to "help" but never asked about the service that was given only what my issue was. Even when I showed him the problem he just kept saying we can fix this, this issue was not fixable only thing they could do was take the polish off because this tech cut off so much of my toe nails there was nothing to file and fix with it looking like little lines of paint. Even during payment I still left that woman who did my nails a $20 tip for still working. To the owner I appreciate you trying to fix the issue but please understand some of us have had bad experiences and in that moment you kept asking me to redo the service over or come back I appreciate that. But I was so beyond overwhelmed and just wanted to cry at how bad my toes were, you need to show empathy understand boundaries and also don't just give a 15% off discount to issues like this. Especially since it was my first time and you promote 15% off to your first time clients on instagram. Thank you for the welcoming experience but it's safe to say I will not be returning. My two stars is for the receptionist and how she welcomed us into the space along with the interior presentation of the space. read more

Had an amazing experience as a first time client, plus this manicure was for my wedding/bridal nails!! I stalked the Nailoscope instagram and came across Sabrina's work, which I really liked so I made an appointment with her. I came in with a picture of what I wanted for inspiration. She made sure to confirm with me the shape, length and color of my nails as we went along. I was super happy that it looked just like the picture in the end. She was fun to talk to and I can tell she loves what she does. Overall I would definitely recommend both Nailoscope and Sabrina to anyone. I'll definitely be back! read more

This is hands-down my favorite nail salon ever. Not only are all the staff outstanding but the space is also impeccably sparkling clean, and you have yourself a little party with the complimentary drinks and snacks they always have on hand. I have had terribly painful ingrown toenails my whole life, and Jenny is the absolute BEST at caring for them. For the first time in about 30 years (no joke), ALL of my toenails have now grown in beautifully and comfortably thanks to her skill, not to mention she's very kind. Every time I call to schedule, the manager Kelsea is so easy to work with, and she shows genuine interest in visiting with me when I'm getting my pedis. I truly look forward to seeing both of them monthly and just love this place! read more
