I really wanted to like this nail spa, but unfortunately it has fallen short. I had a gel mani with…read morebuilder in a bottle add-on and a simple design. I found this very strange... this is what I'll call a "dry" mani... my tech didn't soak my nails/cuticles, so when she groomed my cuticles, it was completely dry. I've never had that done before and got worried. It was uncomfortable, and as I expected would happen, my cuticles bled. My tech's polish and design work seemed good at the time but I noticed after I left that one of my thumbs is crooked. Unfortunately, she also didn't do a good job capping/sealing the ends of my nails and it definitely had an impact: less than 1.5 weeks in and my nails are chipping. The worst part: the most severe chipping is happening to one of the nails with design. I'm so so disappointed. Gel usually lasts a month on me, and it's only been a week and a half. :( I can't remember what the base mani cost was, but I remember when she itemized, she charged me for my existing gel removal (usually I've only seen that done if I'm not getting new gel done), and she charged for each different nail color (I used 3 different colors; I've never been charged just for different colors before), and separate for the simple design (expected). Total came to $90 + tip. For a gel mani that lasted less than 1.5 weeks that wasn't very "spa" (didn't soak my cuticles before grooming, made my cuticles bleed and didn't clean it up, barely any hand massage), I'm honestly really disappointed, frustrated if I'm being honest. For a $100 gel mani, this should not have chipped so soon.

I've been coming to Woodminster Nails since New Year's, and I can honestly say I love it here. The…read moresalon is always clean, with such a nice, relaxing atmosphere that makes every visit feel like a treat. I regularly get my nails, toes, and eyebrows done, and I've been consistently happy every single time. I always get so many compliments on my nails, which says a lot about the quality of their work. Minh is truly the sweetest. She makes you feel so taken care of from the moment you walk in. She greets all the customers, remembers everyone's names, and creates such a welcoming environment. I trust her completely with my nails and eyebrows--she never misses. Highly recommend if you're looking for great service and a place that genuinely cares about their clients!

I was hopeful to try this salon as it had fairly decent reviews and photos looked good. I've been…read morelooking for a nail salon in Alameda since my previous salon is a bit too far. However my experience was less than ideal. I went in wanting dip as I was reading it was stronger and I've been struggling with lifting off builder gel. Multiple staff kept talking out of it and that their builder gel lasts a long time, uncomfortable but hopeful I said okay since Builder Gel is better for your nails in the long run. I got one color, builder gel on natural nails, and just a simple shape. Nothing too complicated I haven't gotten elsewhere before. I went home and thought it was fine for the money, $45 for builder gel + $8 tip. Probably wasn't going to return but also wasn't going to write a review. However, after 1 day my pointer finger nail chipped and started lifting and my middle finger also started lifting. I called and they said to come in and they would fix it. I went in and sat for 30 minutes until someone saw me -- had 3 different people come look my nails in the meantime but never start prep process, etc. After 30 minutes I was taken to a different station and she took maybe 15 minutes to "fix" the issue. Upon leaving and having a time to look better at my nails I still left unsatisfied. I chose not to go back a third time as I don't feel confident they will be able to actually do my nails well. I gave 2 stars as they did offer and attempt to fix my nails and didn't charge me for the "fix." I would be cautious going here as it seems your experience may vary...

There is no nail design too crazy, too detailed, or too specific for her she always delivers, and somehow makes it look even better than the inspiration. Quy is a true perfectionist in the best way possible. She takes her time, pays attention to every single detail, and genuinely cares about her work. I never feel rushed, and I never have to "settle" or second guess anything. I can honestly say I've never once worried about not liking my nails (even when trying something new) because I already know they're going to come out flawless. What really sets her apart is her consistency and professionalism. She listens, she suggests improvements when needed, and she makes sure everything is perfectly shaped, clean, and balanced. My nails always last (5 weeks retention EVERY set) , always look fresh, and ALWAYS get compliments. If you're looking for a nail tech you can fully trust, who treats your nails like art and takes pride in every set, Quy is your girl. Tulip Nails Salon is super lucky to have her and so am I. I won't go to anyone else!
