I just had my nails done by Mary. The acrylic fill itself was beautiful. But then she did exactly what I wanted with chrome and cat eye and gave me a beautiful set of Stained Glass nails. Thank you Mary for a beautiful job. read more

I've returned multiple times now to get my nails done by Rio and he always does exactly what I request! He is precise, clean, and a great listener. Along with that, though the prices may be pricier than other locations I have always loved my results from here rather than other locations. I definitely recommend Slay Nails, and also Rio! read more

Made an appointment via phone, arrived and waited 5-10 minutes for a chair. The girl who checked us in was nice and (unlike other reviews state) spoke English clearly. We were given an option for a free cocktail, wine, margarita or a beer as we were getting into our massage chairs, from the same girl who checked us in. My friend chose a margarita and I chose a beer. Another person came around and informed me they actually didn't have any beer (Corona) which was a bummer. Why offer it if you don't have it? Whatever, I decided on a "margarita" which ended up being strawberry wine and a lime. Umm... that's NOT a margarita. Yes, I know this isn't a bar but my thoughts are: If you are going to offer a drink, make it with the correct ingredients and/or have what you offer in the fridge. Good thing I brought my own drink, not an alcoholic beverage but 100% better than what they offered. You get what you pay for I suppose, lol. Moving on to the pedicure... They have an outstanding color selection for solid colors, jelly, design and glitter colors in both standard nail polish and gel polish. (Best color selection I've ever seen!) An older guy walked in from the back, sat at the foot of the chair I was in, said hello and did his best to ask what color I chose. He didn't speak English at all but he tried so, 'A' for effort. I chose a Classic Pedicure, and he did a decent job. He didn't make any conversation since well... he couldn't because of the language barrier. I didn't mind, I chatted with my friend, zoned out and scrolled my phone. I don't have any complaints, he gave me a basic pedicure which was all I wanted. I trimmed my nails directly before going in because I don't like when the techs cut them since often times they cut them into a shape that I don't like. I asked for "no cut, only file and cuticle removal" so that's what he did along with the massage and painting my nails. I will definitely be visiting this place again, but I'll choose the guy that did my friends nails. I thought hers paint job looked better and her nail tech spoke English so that was a plus. Overall a good experience, just make sure to bring your own drink unless all you want is water or white wine since that's what they seem to have an abundance of. read more

I've visited Slay Nails twice. The salon is conveniently located, has plenty of parking, and is clean and nicely designed. My acrylic fill was just okay. I asked for shorter, natural-looking nails, but they ended up thick in the middle, slightly curved, and very thin at the tips. Several chipped within a couple of days, and I had to return for fixes. The front desk spoke English, and the technicians were kind, but communication was a bit challenging when trying to explain my preferences. Pricing is slightly higher than what I'm used to in Chico--$45 for a short fill and $25 (plus tip) for a color change. Overall, it's a nice salon, but I may try a different technician next time. read more

My first time at SLAY! I've been trying to find time to try them out and I was not disappointed- but almost! First the reception ladies are amazing. They attend to everyone's needs and anticipate the next customer service request, or in my case, correcting an unmet outcome. I plan to go there again. read more

Beautiful and clean salon. Talented, timely and kind employees. They do great work and i always feel treated well with smiles and care even if they aren't currently working on my nails. read more

Went here to try out something new.... I got gel nails and less than 5 days later they are peeling off and look horrible and now I have to go get them redone. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, no reason for them to be falling apart less than a week later :/ not to mention it was difficult communicating with the woman who did my nails. read more

I have had 3 wonderful experiences at Slay. Yesterday was the 1st time I showed a picture and asked for that to be done. I was extremely impressed with Merry and am so thankful that she is the one that was assigned to me the first time I went in. read more

I just came from Slay Nails where I had a Slay Pedicure. Rose was my technician. She was amazing. Everything about the experience was top notch. I have been several times and am never disappointed whoever I get. So glad they are here! 100% recommend. read more

First time at Slay Nail Lounge. I am a 30+ year veteran of the Chico area nail scene. Mind you, being a guy, I do not get my nails done a lot, but enough. Main purpose is to help avoid in grown toenails; I get 3-4 pedicures a year an a manicure about once a year. This trip to Slay was for both. Pedicure was nice, just went with a basic/classic with a parafin wax addon. Service was quick and didn't hurt like other places I have been. The manicure was also good. I did not get any color. The shopping center where they are located was also nice with regards to surrounding businesses. All in all I would highly recommended Slay Nail Loinge. read more

After running a half marathon this weekend, I was excited to treat my sore feet and legs to a relaxing pedicure. Unfortunately the "stress-relieving foot massage" that is advertised was anything but that. It was more like two minutes of the nail tech rubbing the same spot over and over with his long nails digging into the bottom of my foot. And despite the fact that I told him just to trim my toenails "a little bit", they are now so short they hurt. For $58 I won't be booking a pedicure anytime in the near future. read more

Super disappointing experience here. The young lady doing my nails was snotty and so was the girl at the front desk. I got a french tip manicure and it was done incredibly sloppily (see first picture). 24 hours later and they've all chipped (see third picture). Not to mention that their services say that a manicure includes everything in the second picture, cuticle care, trimming, massage etc. and I got NONE of that. You can see in the picture that my cuticles haven't been cleaned up and I didn't get any cuticle oil or lotion, let alone a MASSAGE! What a waste. The place looks so nice and fancy but man they do not live up to expectations. read more

I was really disappointed with my experience at Slay Nail Lounge. I have heard great things about this salon but the staff were very rude and didn't provide the whole experience that comes with the service. I got a full gel x set and the nails are lifted upwards (they look like claws). The gold French tip the nail tech did is already chipping and it's barely been 24 hours (I'm not harsh on my hands nor do I use any harsh chemicals/cleaners). The receptionist was very rude and unkind. I spent $80 on a gel x set for them to be crooked, lifted, chipping, and for only cuticle oil to be applied (their manicure included lotion and a brief massage and I didn't receive either of those services). I was really excited to go to this salon and have a great girls day and it ended up being not fun at all. I would not recommend this salon at all. read more

Cat eyes Gel X (colors chosen 16 + 33). Nails done by Sue. I love the way Sue does my nails. I went to her before when she worked at a different salon. Got these done 10/22/25. It's now 12/16 and I still have them, obviously over grown but no chips or broken nails. Love this salon. These colors were chosen for the theme of my baby shower. Thank you, need to go back soon to get a new set of nails. read more

We are very happy with Slay Nail Lounge in Chico. Everyone is welcoming and customer oriented. It is a beautiful shop and very comfortable. Ivy does an excellent job on my daughter's nails. The best set of acrylic nails, and fills, that I have seen. My daughter, Julia, has special needs and Ivy is always very kind and patient with her. Julia loves to visit, but it can be difficult to understand her in conversation. Ivy makes the effort to communicate with her which, in turn, makes Julia feel great. She enjoys getting her nails done by Ivy, who happens to be a remarkable person. I highly recommend Slay Nail Lounge. read more
