    Kim was absolutely amazing and so sweet. She did exactly what I asked for and even changed something that I didn't like halfway through. Would definitely recommend this place and Kim.

    Update: adding a star because the retention has been great. 2 weeks in and no nails have popped off or are lifting. I am a nanny and I regularly exercise, so I am always doing stuff with my hand and frequently washing. I also tend to pick at/fidget with my nails and they have stood up!

    Tracy never misses when it comes to nail designs!!! She's always so detail oriented and I've never had a bad experience with her! These lemon french tips came out so cute

    Holly and the entire team at StudioMani are the best! Ever since my first visit, I've been coming back as a regular client and have had a great experience each time. They are so professional, friendly and kind! I also like that they offer fill services on Gel X so that it's not a new set every time depending on the integrity of your nails.

    I came here on a weekday evening after work for a very much needed gel pedicure. I walked in but I recommend putting in an appointment. I haven't had such an amazing pedicure in a very long time. Jennifer did a great job with painting, cleaning up the excess skin without any pain, and callus removal. It seems they just changed management so they're doing a 20% off offer for new clients. Even without the 20% the prices are extremely reasonable. The shop looked renovated, very clean, and they even offer complimentary drinks. They take card with a $1 fee. The shop is in the same plaza as smart and final.

    I was in the wrong coming in an hour before closing for an acrylic soak off and a Gel - X full set. But they welcomed me and SLAYED my set !!! Everyone was so nice and hyped me up about my nail pick and my life. lol ! I played it safe because I've never been here and didn't get a design just French tip with a black line ( I was scared for the line because some salons cannot make a straight line to save their life ) but Tracy did amazing !!!! Omg I will be coming back for the pink cheetah print we talked about. I'm so happy I found my new favorite salon in Poway open til 7 and can slay any design.

    We were a lot of people but they still took us in to accommodate. The staff was kind and Holly was absolutely amazing. Definitely coming back again. Very quiet and clean. My little sister is very happy about her nails. This is the place to go!

    owner was very friendly and welcoming! made sure I liked my nails and explained the process of gel because it was my first time mimi did such a great job with detail and also learning tortoiseshell for the first time! I rarely do short nails but she did an amazing job with this one :) will definitely come back to get my nails done again

    I walked in for a mani and pedi as the $19.99 pedi deal drew me on. I went in around 10AM on a weekend and they were too busy to take walks-in, so I was asked to come back in a hour. It was no problem for me since I live close but recommend to call/make an appointment before hand. I was about to get my mani done but there seemed to be some issue with a customer next to me that she had to get her nails redone which delayed my mani time even though I came back with an appointment. I waited 30+ minutes to get my nail started. I got gel nails with chrome and I initially loved how it turned out - love the color and not too shiny as I asked, however, it only lasted a week until it started lifting. (Got nails done on Sunday and picture is from Monday). I would expect gel nails to last at least 2 weeks so this was a little sad. No issues with my pedi though. They even massage your legs!

    tracy always does such a good job! very clean and beautiful salon i love that they take their time and really listen to what you want.

    Gel X

    Loveee studio mani, i've come back many times and they've always done me right (especially Holly!!) I couldn't decide so I did two colors they just got in this new color series too 10/10 RECOMMEND also they're always so welcoming and have complementary drinks while they do your nails

    My second time going. The first I was drawn in by their new client pedicure special at 19.99 It felt so great and they got us in just before closing. When I went today(2 weeks later) i went to get a full set with a dark green color and almond shape in mind. She did gel and I absolutely love how they came out! The only thing they didn't do that I kinda wish they did was clean up my cuticles and skin around the nails

    Came in for a mani pedi. I didn't have an appointment. They said it would be about a 15 minute wait. So they take walk ins. It is very clean. I think they may be new. I saw the sign on the road advertising a pedicure special. It's a Tuesday afternoon. 2:00. Only two manicurists working at this time. I guess this has been around awhile but new owner a year or so ago and a remodel has been done. Great job on both the manicure and pedicure.

    Beauty by Dolly never does me wrong and I'll never trust anyone but Faranak to thread my brows!…read more I've had two types of services done by Beauty by Dolly, threading and female Brazilians multiple times. Time and time again, they've been professional, kind, and great at conversations! I'm sensitive to pain, but they're amazing at making conversation to try and distract me from the hair removal pain. They've since closed their Black Mountain location, but the Carmel Mountain location is clean, has plenty of parking, and is easy to find and drive to. They offer tap to pay, and QR codes to pay whichever staff does your service. I personally have the brow tab, which gives you 6 brow threadings for the price of 5. As of 08/15/2026, the brow tab is $90.

She's insanely good at what she does as she pays attention to the shape of your face instead of doing the same brow on everyone, and the result always looks clean and even without looking overdone. I always walk out feeling like a brand new person. The other thing is she's super genuine and kind. She remembers you, asks how you're doing, and is warm with everyone who comes in -- it never feels rushed or transactional. I always look forward to my appointments because of her. If you've had bad threading experiences or you're just picky about your brows, go see Faranak asap! : )

    I've been a loyal European Wax Center client for years, visiting locations on both the East and…read moreWest Coasts. Since moving to this area three months ago, I've been searching for someone whose work reflects the level of precision, care, and consideration that keeps me coming back. I'm happy to say that Antonia has been exactly that person. Her work was meticulous, thoughtful, and performed with genuine attention to detail. Just as importantly, she created a comfortable and welcoming experience. Our conversation felt natural and effortless--engaging without being intense, warm without feeling forced, and gentle without being overwhelming. It's rare to find someone who combines exceptional skill with such an easy and calming presence. Antonia is the reason I will continue returning to this location, and she has absolutely become my go-to wax specialist. Thank you, Antonia, for your professionalism, kindness, and dedication to your craft. The care you put into your work truly stands out and is deeply appreciated

    I've been coming to this location for years and, until recently, had a wax specialist I really…read moreliked and trusted. Since the management change, however, I've gone through five different specialists in the past year. I don't believe the specialists themselves are necessarily doing a poor job, but that level of employee turnover certainly raises questions about the management and work environment. What happened today was especially disappointing. The manager herself booked my appointment last month. When I arrived today, I was told that the specialist I had been scheduled with was no longer there and that I had been assigned to someone I had never met--without anyone calling, emailing, or otherwise letting me know in advance. I find that extremely unprofessional. If a specialist is no longer working at the location, customers who have appointments with that person should be notified. Instead, I was simply expected to show up and accept a completely different appointment and specialist. I honestly don't understand why it was apparently so difficult to have that conversation with a customer. To be fair, the specialist who helped me today was great. I have no complaints about her work at all. My concern is with the management and the way this situation was handled. After years of being a customer, I'm disappointed that I no longer have confidence in the consistency or stability of this location. I'll likely finish out my current wax pass, but I don't think I'll be purchasing another one here. I would rather take my business somewhere with more consistent staffing and, more importantly, management that communicates with and respects its customers.

    Brazilian waxing experience with Shardonnay 0/10. I scheduled an appointment with Shardonnay for…read morethe first time because I'm new at San Diego. I read about her before booking the appointment and it said she was the employee with the most time in the company. However, her attitude was tremendously horrible. I have to clarify that I arrived on time to the place, but the girl at the lobby was attending another client and was giving her a full introduction about all the packages and promotions they have, and afterwards she proceeded to charge her for the service she had taken. The receptionist took around five to six minutes doing it, until I had to interrupt her and tell her that I had an appointment at 5:30 pm with Shardonnay. It is at that moment that she notified Shardonnay of my arrival. When Shardonnay received me, she had an extremely negative attitude with me, since from the moment she greeted me, she did not allow me to go to the bathroom (which I needed) and started giving me a lecture about punctuality, without even asking me or asking herself or asking receptionist girl, if I had arrived late or if something had happened at the reception. It was to the point that she was not even able to greet me, but very frustrated about her tight schedule, she basically started scolding me and telling me that the service was not going to be the best because she only had 8 minutes to attend me since she had another client after me and that I "had arrived late"... Now, it is important to clarify that if that had been the case, the place policies give a 8-minute window to the client to arrive and still receive a good service. However, she kept saying that the service wouldn't be the best. At first I stayed quiet, but after she kept literally blaming and scolding me, I told her to do her job, but that I did not agree with her attitude, cause of course she had a very bad attitude cause of her frustration. She kept arguing and arguing until I literally had to tell her "just do your job". Very shamelessly she tried not to attend me because she now felt that I was angry, thing that I did not allow her to do because I did not drive from Chula Vista to Miramar, 30 minutes, for her to cancel my appointment just because she was in a bad mood. I sat down and took my service. She did a Brazilian service in 5 minutes. It hurt a lot, of course, because she was already upset and also in a rush, so she was very rough when pulling the wax. Afterwards she realized her mistake and started apologized, to which I literally responded that she didn't have to, what she did was already done. I only made her aware that I arrived on time, the receptionist took time attending another client, and I paid the price for it. So she can keep the apologies and that for next time she learn the lesson and at least she can greet and say what she have to say in a proper way. Would I go back? ABSOLUTELY NO, and especially not with her. She may have been working there for many years, but her service and customer attention is THE WORST. She could have gained a loyal client, but because of her rudeness she did not.
