Loved it! Great gel pedicure, very happy

On a whim, just decided to come here for a little R&R and I'm so glad I did. Hannah is phenomenal. The prices are outrageous in the best way -- where else can you get a mani and spa pedi for $30? And fantastic service. Just to speak to Hannah again, the diligence and extra care that she takes to make sure her clients are taken care of is such and breath of fresh air (ie. She literally got on her knees to paint my toes ALL OVER AGAIN because I scuffed one. ALL TEN TOES!) . I'm so glad I came by and will definitely be making another appearance soon. read more

This place is great - they were helpful and nice, did a fantastic job, and the price was great. It's not fancy but it totally does the job and is a fantastic deal. I'll go here again and again. read more

Hannah is disrespectful first she tells me to hold my baby and keep her still and my baby starts crying so she tells me to get out , last time I came she charged me 10 more dollars for the same exact thing my friend had gotten just different color & I asked her why and she said because he length like I said me and my friend had the same exact thing same length. she always making comments like she know everybody business ‍ read more

$15 for a shellac polish change and $25 for a full shellac manicure. You can't beat these prices or this quality of work. The staff is friendly and knows their loyal customers well. Definitely a gem in Menlo Park - dont let the location or outer facade deter you. read more

Quick service, stuck to advertised price. If I'm in the area again, I will visit for sure.

First and last time I step foot into this place. I came in with a friend to get a mani and Pedi. The guy who did my mani and pedi rushed and did a poor job. I felt he wanted to get me in and out to do the next pedi. My money is just as good as the next. This salon lacks in being clean. I say this because I notice a lady scrub the pedi spa station with a dish sponge and no soap! GROSS! read more

One star for waiting period. I like coming to this salon their service is good once they start but I had to give them a one star review based on the last two attempts to get my nails done here. I usually ask how long it will be because if it's a longer than 30 minutes wait I won't wait, I'll come back. We'll the last two times I've yd choose your color we'll seat you right now only 10 mins wait" true enough but both times I've had to wait 20 extras items sitting down in the chair with my feet soaking on water and both times I've walked out because I have other things to do. Yes my feet were all wrinkled. read more

Horrible service horrible job they rush I got a pedicure in under 20 min! Disgusting never coming back they didn't even clean the tub or instruments they use dirty towels simply HORRIBLE don't know how they have 4 stars read more

Quick, courteous and my nails (gel) are a knock out. For $25! So tip big to keep Hannah happy with her bargain prices. Young businesswomen gotta eat read more

Destroyed my mood changing nails getting ready for thanksgiving by cutting g them down and then a very fails attempt to remove the gel and acrylic myself because I had to time to visit hannah, so I hid the mess and went today to be treated like royalty. Hannah again took very good care of me by telling her ladies to do a good job. Tracy gave me a great leg massage, awesome pedicure and I let her do a design of her choice that came out beautiful. And more Minny had the task of battling removing what was left of my old acrylic and did a good job taking her time and being gentle on my natural nails making sure to ask if I was ok through the whole thing. I showed her a pic of some cute holiday nails and she did them exactly like the picture. A the while carrying on a great conversation about their thanksgiving with their families. It's nice to feel like ur nor JUST A customer and leave feeling happy and your nails and toes looks stellar. Satisfied once again! Thank you ladies! read more

See all

I went to New Generation Nails for the first time on August 6th. It will be the first of many visits! I was extremely impressed with the quality of their work. They were also very kind and caring and efficient! The pricing is very fair. Hanna and her team are worth the visit. Thank you Hanna! God bless you! read more

For being affordable, I was very pleased with the service at New Generation. Hannah and her husband who run the salon are both extremely efficient and do a great job. I've been satisfied with the manicure/ pedicures and have even brought friends back. read more

I came here for the awesome reviews, convenience and supposed cheaper prices. They're about the same price as my usual nail spot in mountain view. Service wise, my manicure and pedicure was sped through. I don't think she filed or cleaned up my nails on one foot. They were very busy when I came in so I'll use that as a factor I still did tip her very well and she was so thankful and asked for me to come back. Again if I'm not able to go to my usual place I'll come here but not my top choice. read more

Horrible customer service, everything is rushed and they talk bad about you in their own language. Done coming here and wouldn't recommend it. read more

These guys do a nice job. Not a fancy place and not the place to go if you want a leisurely spa environment, but more of a - I get 30 minutes for lunch & need to get a manicure - type of place. They are quick, but do a nice job. read more

Love love love getting my mani pedi here. The owners are very nice and accommodating. The do a very nice job! The salon is very neat and clean. read more

I love this place but for one thing I will give it a four star b/c sometimes they do kind of mess up when they are busy but hey I understand they get frustated read more

New Generation Nails - Gelish acrylic nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Menlo Park, California

This place is great! The staff is very kind and personable! I called for an appointment and got right in! The were quick yet efficient! My pedicure and manicure was well worth the money spent, totaling only $30! I recommend coming here to get your nails perfected! read more

This place is dirt cheap in comparison to most other nail salons in the area. You get what you pay for. They are very quick and sometimes my nails came out great but they are not sanitary. I've gotten waxed there before and noticed the waxer dipping the same wax stick in and out of the wax pot. Also, I've never seen them open new tools to use on different people. They never clean the tools and they keep using them since you're so busy. read more

If you care about your nails and your nail beds I REPEAT DO NOT GO TO THIS NAIL SALON! They were rude rushing through everything and they clipped off the tip of my thumb. Yes I was fucking bleeding. She was taking off my acrylics and she was rushing just trying to pull them off clip them off not taking into consideration of my nails and how much pain I was in. She was rude and when I tried to leave she followed me out the store and I'm pretty sure she was talking shit to her other people. Never been soo fuckin displeased in my life.. DO NOT FUCKIN GO HERE.. they ain't worth yo money or your time NEGATIVE 16 stars bitch. I saw her helping someone else with her nails, they were un even nail polish everywhere and she was in and out in 10 min and she got charged up the ass it's not worth it that lady just took the shit and get nails ain't cute smh. DO NOT GO HERE THE MANAGER IS A BITCH AS WELL read more

Good prices but otherwise i was not that impressed. French gelish manicures for $25. French pedicure is $23. Regular pedicure $20. Hot inside, they don't seem to have AC. It's a small place, with about 4 back massage/pedicure chairs and 4 mani seats. The lady, who appeared to be the manager, was very distracted and kept looking over my shoulder. she was working fast and she made my cuticle bleed when trimming. She apologized but she really should have focused and been more careful. It was the Friday Ewing before a 3 day weekend so packed and about a 20 minute wait even though I called ahead 30 minutes beforehand. For the price, I can't say I've had anyone else that's better and it's good prices but I will keep searching for a place where i feel pampered. read more

Before I came to the nail shop, I called them to ask how much would it costs to take off acrylics? They respond $10. So I came at 5pm (which they were still open), only two nail technicians were working on customers. The others were not. Anyway, they greeted me warmly because I said I wanted my nails done. They asked would I like a pedicure or acrylics because I showed them my nails. But the moment I said I'd like to take off my acrylics they told me to come back tomorrow, which I did respectfully. Then the next day, again, she said come back tomorrow. Again and again and again... it seems like they would only put acrylics on but not take them off! Horrible customer service. I have never been to nail shop that treated me this way. If they didn't want to take me in, they should have just straight out and said so...or lied on the phone and said they're busy. At least the at would save me my time.. Instead of wasting my time to drive there multiple times...I ended up going to somewhere else to take off my acrylics due to their poor customer service. read more

Worst Eyebrow place in ever. The Manager Hannah did my eyebrows today and I had a appointment as I walked in she was doing a ladies nails she told me to go and wait in the back for her, and that she would be there in 2 minutes she took 20 . As Hannah started rushing to do my eyebrows she took off to much hair in the center and beginnings of my eyebrows and still charged me.I'm so upset I will Never go back there.This place doesn't even deserve a star read more

They are very unprofessional got my wife nails done the stiletto style and when we got home 2broke and came off dont waste your money

Un profressional low quality on there work, went back to let them know she didn't put enough Acrylic on my nails, 2 of them broke in 2days. Tom acted as if he didn't want to believe it. When he looked at my nail, oh yes he knew but I was already pissed off with him not wanting to do my full set over. Poor service I wouldn't go again read more

Too bad they turned me away 15mins before closing time ‍ and I was gonna tip hella good if I kept them over but all I wanted was a gel manicure....so I took my money elsewhere. read more

This place is tiny and very very bare and echoey so if you are looking for a aesthetically pleasing & comfortable salon this place is not for you. The people there were really nice though. $25 for a shellac manicure but this came at a price...the lady who owns the place (she was really nice and friendly, so I feel bad writing this. Sorry!) seemed to be in a hurry and really haphazardly applied the gel and polish, and didn't cure it long enough. This was my first time getting it so I din't know! It ended up being really thick and uneven on all my nails, and even worse, I chose a really light transparent-ish pink so you could see ALL the unevenness through the polish. Then a few minutes after I left the salon all of these tiny bubbles started forming in the polish on every nail. It was pretty disappointing. I probably should have examined my nails more closely before leaving but I don't think I would have had the heart to ask her to redo them anyway. read more

Yesterday my daughter and I went to this nail salon and Hanna was doing My daughter's nails and My daughter told hanna that the nail that she had glued to her was outside her natural nail and it was hurting her skin & she didn't care she kept working and ignored My daughter when my daughter reminded her of the nail she started screaming at her that , that was the way she worked and that if she didn't like it we could leave I told hanna that she didn't have to scream at my daughter or talk to her like that because we were paying for her services and that it wasn't for free hanna got mad and yelled at my daughter to get out we got up and left , the first times we had gone it wasn't so bad but each time we go she gets meaner and meaner her attitude doesn't help specially to my daughter, my daughter is 13 and Hanna is a grown lady she had no right to talk to my daughter like that it's not really the money it was just how she treated us hopefully you guys don't go through what we did. read more

The owner is very nice and fixed my nails when I told her I did not like the way the polish set in. Good experience overall and great prices for the area. read more

I got a full set done months ago with them and it was cute not perfect a little bumpy but for the price they were okay, I removed them my self. They only lasted 1-2 weeks... went in a second time and again they were OK not done to perfection but for the price it was alright, I got the same lady both times and she was RUSHED. This second time I went to get them removed, again they didn't last long, but I couldn't remove them myself they were very glued on and they hurt for me to take them off so I figured I would go and pay for a PAIN FREE removal HOW THEY SHOULD BE REMOVED . No, she got a metal pointy nail clipper and wedged them between my real nail and acrylic and just pushed them further and further in and lifting them up and QUICKLY so that was SO PAINFUL, it took me by surprise. I wanted to say something but I didn't want to be that customer, so I took the pain and just couldn't wait for it to be over, after I decided to get gel, and they were so sensitive the light would BURN my nails , it was such a painful and bad experience I would never go again!!! Same thing happened to my mom and the reason she went was because it was her second time getting Gel there and I figured her experience wouldn't be the same since hers would be gel and mines were acrylic, removal is easier on Gel, but she came back today and told me the lady took of her GEL the same way! And her nails are still hurting, SHE JUST HAS TO SOAK THEM IN PURE ACETONE IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE PAINFUL THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN ! She's such in a rush to get to customers her quality is terrible! She's does it the lazy way and scrapes your acrylic or GEL off your real nail, damaging them!! My nails were sore for two days!WILL NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOME PLACE ELSE !!! read more

This place was cheap and fast. A woman (I assume she was the owner) checked my pedicure before I left. She noticed a smear I hadn't seen. She fixed it herself before letting me leave. I'll definitely be back! read more

I was very pleasantly surprised by my mani/pedi here. I was on my way out of town the next morning I called them an hour before and made an appointment. Glad I did because when I arrived there were a few other people waiting but they whisked me right in and got started on the pedicure. As others had said this isn't a fancy spa, but it's clean and for the price it can't be beat ($33 for a mani and french pedi). I also like how fast they go. While others my be bothered I get a bit antsy after sitting for too long. As long as they do a good job I don't really care how fast they go. What really made this above average for me though is that I ended up having some sort of hot flash while I was there and because I am in my third trimester I must have looked a bit worried. Within a minute of becoming rather uncomfortable the owner was by my side asking me if I was okay, putting fans on me, talking with me and taking over my manicure until I felt better. I've been to many spas in my life and was reassured to know that she took a personal interest to make sure I had a good experience. She even did some touch ups on my nails that I didn't notice were a problem. Everyone there was super nice and the work was great, I will definitely be back! read more

Not the best pedicure I've ever had, but the price is right! Everyone from my high school community gets their nails (both acrylics and regular) done here. Considering it is so cheap I am shocked that the acrylics come out looking so wonderful and not tacky at all. Women there remembered me after only a couple of visits and are nothing but kind to me and my friends when we stop by after school. read more

I went to this place because I was tired of precious nails. Honestly this nail shop was horrible. I made an appointment at 5; showed up at 430 & didn't get seating until 530. Now, before I came in I called, obviously, and asked how much gel mani and regular pedi would be all together... they said $36 and had the nerve to charge me $47 all together and they had the new girl on me. I asked for my nails straight they weren't straight. They also let me leave before my toes dried and I ended up messing them up by the time I was home. I honestly wouldn't recommend this place they're rude and horrible on timing. I honestly should've walked out but I'm too generous and paid for a horrible job. read more

Never again, I came thinking I was getting a nice pleasant spa treatment. Of course, I listened to a friend who recommended this place... Clearly I did not have my glasses on when I complemented her nails. She was rough, continued to cut not only my toes but she also cut my toenails down to the meat. I could go on and on but I'll stop. I'm sure she could tell I was uncomfortable by my jumping and pained look on my face while she rushed through my coats of even paint. read more

I had my nails done today.. i read some reviews before going here and see for myself whats gonna be look like. When i got here seems like a small and decent salon but not expecting too much from regular and lil fancy ones. But so far they way they service me i had no issues about that which i had mani and pedi not even the gel but came out great. I loved it and the ladies here are all nice and did a great job on me. Give it a shot and would definitely come back.. im not sure if she's the manager the one in my pics but she makes sure im ok and im taken good care of. Try weekdays when its not busy that way they can focus on you and try not to rush you up to accomodate incoming customers. 2thumbs up! ;) read more

Second time coming today, I'm very picky with who touches my feet but Sara did an AMAZING job. Definitely recommend her to anyone with ingrown toenail problems. Had my pedi & nails done at the same time so I wasn't there for long. GOOD PRICES FOR AMAZING SERVICE! read more

Very fast, and thorough. Always get compliments on my manis from here! And so price savvy!

This place is fantastic! If you want an amazing manicure/pedicure that lasts a long time come to New Generation Nails. The staff is incredibly professional, extremely talented and customer service is their #1 priority. I drive 20 miles from my house just to come here. I am one of those people that will pay whatever $$ for a good manicure. This is the only place my manicures do not chip. If you want an amazing manicure that does not chip, come here. read more
