    I have been coming to Puffin for more than six months and the staff there is incredibly friendly. They are all knowledgeable and skilled. Today I had Karlie do my nails and I'm normally pretty basically. I could tell she was talented so I decided to ask for something a little different for me. She did a nude cat's eye on nails and I love it. It adds a little touch of special for me and now I want to try more. Thank you Karlie for making me more modern.

    We chose the Rose Pedicure which I'd recommend

    The salon has been remodeled since we were last in the area visiting, lovely atmosphere with plants and new comfortable massage chairs. I also enjoyed the spa service we chose - the Rose Pedicure, which is a step up from the deluxe. It was relaxing and smelled lovely, but the big issue I had was with the actual paint job of my pedicure. I'm not sure if it was the technician or the paint, but this was one of the worst paint jobs I've received unfortunately. I told the owner before I got up because I couldn't find my technician and then had to wait for her to finish up with someone else so she could "fix" my toes, but she really didn't. I expected her to fix it or at least be offered a discount or a re-paint. I ended up just removing the polish myself a few days later so I could repaint my nails. I know I'm very particular with polish but this was disappointing especially for the price ($75).

    This was for a birthday trip and I have to say the nail tech was sooo nice and caring!

    The quality, care, patience, service, and the atmosphere in this nail's salon is amazing! If you are looking for a professional nail salon PUFFIN NAILS is the one! Everyone is super welcoming and nice:)

    Love this nail salon so much! Everyone there does such a good job and is so much fun. Thank you so much to Lyn for doing the best french tip I have ever gotten and to Sweet Tina who did a great pedicure. I leave so happy everytime I come.

    A wonderful nail salon!! If you want a design- Linh is the person to go to :) Everyone here is incredible though. Our family enjoys coming together and have not gone wrong with their services- gel-x, builder, dip, regular polish, gel. A beautiful place to have a relaxing mani/pedi and they make it easy to set up an appointment

    Dip powder - C21 with white chrome
    Kelley N.

    I've been coming here for 2 years now and I always leave super satisfied and in love with the results! The staff are all nice and very welcoming. After the first few visits, they already remembered my name which I think is really nice and shows that they pay attention to their returning clients. Recently, I came in for a dip powder manicure. Hanh was my nail tech and she did an amazing job. She was very meticulous and kept checking in with me during every step. The length and shape were exactly what I wanted. I wasn't going to add chrome but I felt like the color needed something a little extra, so she added it and the results were perfect. Highly recommend coming here for your manicures and pedicures.

    There are a few nail places in my area but I go here every time. I am always adamant about using my own nails with the intent to grow out. It had been some time since I gone so my nails were not in the best shape. They were able to salvage my nails (despite being broken) by not only shaping it in a great way but also adding the gel builder. They informed me it would help retain my natural nails but at the same time make it last longer. I came in with a color preference but fell in love with the cat eye nails they do. Perfect for the new year and will come back again!!

    finding a nail tech isn't easy -- especially in an area where there's so many options. you try a…read morefew, but it's kinda like cinderella... you're just waiting for the right fit. after doing some scrolling and reading reviews, I decided to give Beau Den Spa a shot. the photos looked great and the feedback seemed solid, so I finally worked up the courage to call. kimmy answered and was so sweet -- she asked what i needed and booked me for 10:15 AM the next day. when i arrived, i was greeted right away by a gentleman at the front, and one of the women immediately recognized it was me (happened to be kimmy), which felt really welcoming. although my appointment was at 10:15, i wasn't seated until around 10:30/10:45, but honestly, i didn't mind. they offer refreshments (tea, coffee, water), which was a nice touch. my nail tech was vi (i hope i'm spelling that right!). i came in with a full set from another shop, and i really appreciated that they don't let your nails sit in acetone forever. she removed my old set carefully and started prepping me for gel-x. i went with a stiletto/almond shape, which is totally new for me, so i was nervous but excited. long story short: i LOVE my nails. vi told me my fingers were made for the length and shape (maybe she was hyping me up, but i'll take it ). she also did my pedicure, and the experience was just as good. the bowl had lemons, lemon leaves, and i think even roses? the water temperature was perfect. it felt luxurious and relaxing. i spent about $200 (including a $20 tip). yes, it's pricey -- but in today's economy, that's not uncommon and it's pretty fairly priced compared to the other shops in the area. if you care about quality and the overall experience, i'd say it's worth it. and having Starbucks nearby doesn't hurt either. definitely coming back.

    This place is a gem and worth every dollar spent!…read more I've been to quite a bit of nail salon places in Concord/Pleasant Hill/Walnut Creek area. There are some that are good, but unfortunately some that makes you not want to treat yourself in getting your nails done. That was what happened to me last year. A place I will not name, just shellacked the acrylic powder on my nails extremely thick, making me look like I have some nail related abnormality. And as a people pleaser, I just decided to deal with it and cry on my way home. That experience made me not want to get any more manicures. Fast forward to now. I missed feeling pretty and got super inspired by the nail art that the IG algorithm threw at me. I wanted to treat myself to a manicure with some art to celebrate Lunar New Year. This was a last minute game day decision, so during my appointment at Beau Den Spa, I surprised the owner with a picture inspiration... and she went above and beyond! She could've told me "I can't do them within the time frame of our appointment" or "nope." She probably could say "oh hell no" and I'd completely understand. I even said she can simplify them...but she did it all! They are the best nails I've ever had! Not an exaggeration but legit! She is extremely talented and meticulous. If you ever want to get elaborate nail art done, this is the place to go. Just make sure to let them know in advance of the complexity so that they ensure ample time is set aside. My mother is a huge fan of their pedicures. It's the only place that I know in the area that provides the highest quality of service. They do not rush nor do they speed their massages. Their name fits their services. You do indeed feel that you're getting a spa treatment. There are probably cheaper places to get your nails done in the area, but this place is where the quality standards matches the price point.
