    Loveeeeeeee them!
    Mary Z.

    New to the area, and after a much needed manicure I decided to stop at this place only because it was super close to my house. Nhu (Calls herself Nicky) was the lady who did my nails and I must say she truly did a great job. I got a Gel manicure for $27. Coming from LA where you can get a gel for $22, that was a shocker but well worth the price. I deff looked around before coming here and there were prices like $30-$35 for gel mani. Crazy! She listened to what I wanted and helped me pick out a color. She was sweet, conversational and patient with me. You ladies know how tough it can be to pick a nail color. Haha. In the end, I was very satisfied. If only they were $22 here too.. ;[

    French tip gel nails.

    I don't see why there are such bad reviews here. I got a friendly lady named Mai, who helped me with my groupon deal. ($15 for $30 worth of nail services) She was great! I got my gel nails done with a $5 extra charge for French tip. I didn't mind. She was very friendly and she even massaged my hands after she was done. Great customer service & very friendly people. I walked right in & they automatically acknowledged me. As I was sitting there, it seems they have regular customers. They ask about their regular customers lives & how they're doing. I'll be coming back when I want my nails done again. :)

    First Shellac manicure after 6 days color "BLUE"
    Amber N.

    I purchased a Groupon for a "Gel or Shellac Manicure" at this salon. I was hesitant after reading the reviews but I had a wonderful experience with them. I have never had a gel manicure but have wanted to and since my anniversary was coming up I thought this would be a great time. DeAnn who did my Manicure and I got along really well and I decided to add on a spa pedicure and some waxing and was pleased and happy with everything that I had that day. They were all nice and I didn't have any issues understanding them and they were all delightful. I will be returning and I am very happy with my nails they are beautiful and amazing. I highly recommend this salon and if you have problems with any language barriers maybe you should go somewhere else. However, I will be returning for a long time.

    Gel OPI color #23, "My Address Is Hollywood". Groupon for $15.
    Michelle L.

    Came in a few days before my Groupon was to expire ($15 for 1 gel or shellac manicure). It was easy to walk in on a weeknight evening (close at 7pm). I called ahead for an appointment and Lona did my nails. I chose one of the OPI nailcolors, "My Address Is Hollywood" which was a rosy pink-coral color, square slightly rounded shape. I've gotten gel manicures done before with the tabletop lamps, but these stations were pretty neat to have the UV lights built in at the right level below the table surface for each hand. Hand massage was good, and I did leave a tip. I'm approaching the end of my third week after getting the manicure and they've grown out maybe 1/4" but I was able to paint over with a similar color to make it last longer. Not bad for a Groupon for sure!

    Love my nails!!! They are beautiful.
    Becky N.

    First time here and I was treated like I was a regular. Friendly staff. My nails and toes have been done flawlessly and timely. They were so nice that I decided to have my hair washed and straightened. I walked out of there feeling like a million bucks!!! Special thanks to Lona and Nikki.

    Gorgeous gel French tips with sparkles by Lana! They were so ugly before.
    Amanda A.

    Only come here for Lona! She's amazing, seriously! Makes me feel so pretty does great hair, nails, and eye brows. She's really a one woman who does it all shop!! I love Lona and I am her devoted/loyal customer.

    Have been taking my mother and I to this nail salon for the past 6 months to have our Bi-Weekly Mother/Daughter pamper days & we really enjoy them. They have some of the sweetest cosmetologists you'll meet. They make you feel like family and very comfortable. The salon is neat, nicely coordinated, very well ventilated and a television is always nice to watch while getting nails done. The latest music is always playing. They have a HUGE Gel/Shellac selection, which is all the craze right now and my fave. They have a nice collection of regular OPI or China Glaze nail polishes. They specialize in Hair, Nails, Waxing, Hair Coloring...the whole nine. I see lots of ppl come in with appts, so I began to make them as well. I would highly suggest calling & making an appt same day or day before. We usually go for the Gel Manicure, Pedicure & Eyebrow Wax.

    Shellac manicure
    Kristen M.

    I came here to use a Groupon for a Shellac manicure. I was running late to my appointment, so I called to let them know and they had no problem waiting for me. The place was clean, the staff was pleasant enough, and I was happy with my manicure. Nothing special but a decent place to get a manicure if you live nearby.

    I have been coming here for over 10 years and this is one of my favorite spots to go get my nails…read moredone. The pedicure service is really great and I always get the tropical one which comes with fresh fruit also they do have a gel mask for your legs and did you a hot stone and I love the wax on your foot as well. I really like coming here for the service they actually treat you like you are family and they are very patient and always take care of my ingrown nails. I also like the parking here which is really easy to get in and out and also I can also take the bus which is very accessible. If you are in the West Sac area this is a spot to not be missed for any pedicure and manicures. The vibe is always very hole in the wall and Hidden Gem. Hope this review is help and thank you for reading and have a yeptastic day.

    WHY I WENT HERE: - pedicure…read more - try a new salon THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located in a plaza off Harbor Blvd and W Capitol Ave - located in the same plaza as Grocery Outlet THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - like a lot of nail salons, one side has the pedicure massage chair stations set up, the opposite wall is where the manicure stations are, front has limited seating for customers to wait at, back is where the waxing room and restroom are located THE MENU: - nails - waxing - manicure - little diva - add on - pedicure - royal treatment pedicure - Harbor Nailspa Pedicure CUSTOMER SERVICE: - initially reached out online via Yelp - ended up calling for a walk-in appointment - upon arrival I was greeted warmly and taken to the pedicure station promptly - the color selection I was provided was a bit on the smaller side, but I saw there were tons of color options to select from, they were just hanging on the wall by the manicure station - it was a relaxing experience; it didn't feel rushed at all and the massage was at a good pressure for me - I really enjoyed the interaction all the workers had with customers as they came in; wasn't rushed at all, but really warm greetings for everyone

    It was pure fate that I couldn't make my standard Monday morning appointment so I walked in on a…read morerandom Thursday without an appointment and was introduced to JENNIFER. I had been struggling to find someone in Sacramento who could do a builder gel set close to what I was getting in Napa BUT as fate would have it... JENNIFER is the answer to my prayers. Not only has she got the builder gel technique down but she is fast and really good. The cherry on top are her freehand designs

    DO NOT BOOM WITH NANCY. highly recommend not booking with Nancy. I went in this past Saturday and…read moreshowed her exactly what I wanted before she even started: chrome French tips with a little glitter on top. She immediately told me it couldn't be done because she would have to add a base. Even after I told her to just add the base, she kept making excuses about the cost and saying it wasn't possible. ​I ended up settling for a standard white tip, hoping the glitter she chose would at least look decent. It wasn't what I wanted at all. The worst part is that as soon as she finished the very last nail, she admitted that we could have done the chrome at the beginning, but it was "too late now" because the white was already on. ​This is the second time she has done this to me. She waited until the job was finished to tell me she actually could have given me the design I asked for. I told her straight up that I wasn't happy. If you want someone book with Angel instead. I've gone to her before and she is great, but definitely avoid Nancy.
