I went in on Wednesday of last week (5 days ago) to get my nails done before my sister's wedding (which was on Saturday). I asked for gel X on my nails and just regular gel on my toes and initially I was actually really happy with the results-- the nails look really good. The problem is that within two days, i.e. Friday the day before my sister's wedding, my left hand, pinky nail fell off. When I say it fell off, I mean, I literally did not notice that it had come off until like I saw my finger. There was nothing I was doing that made it rip off or anything like that and I don't play with my nails. I don't bite my nails I'm actually really good about not picking at my nails. So I went back on Friday two days after I had come in and the same nail tech technician replaced my pinky nail. Fast forward to Saturday and I look down and my index finger on my left hand (I'm right handed btw) had fallen off in similar fashion meaning that I didn't even know it had fallen off until I looked down and saw my nails. I literally work behind a desk. I don't do yardwork. I don't do any type of manual labor that would make my nails prone to detaching and frankly I've had gel X done twice before on my nails, and I did not experience any of this. Since I was out of town, I plan to go back today, Monday to have them replace my index finger and literally before I even went to the salon I looked down and the middle finger on my left hand had also fallen off! The same woman who initially gave me the manicure replaced my pinky nail (the next day) for free... and when I came in to show her that these two other nails had fallen off she fixed both of them in like 10 minutes and I was actually going to tip her until she told me that it was going to cost me $10......... I would have to pay $10 for her inability to properly adhere these nails onto my fingers.... Literally, they weren't ripped off and in fact one of them fell off in my purse so I had the nail! lol [[HIGHLIGHT]]This nail tech told me that i "need to stop picking my nails" which... UM WHAT??? not only was it an extremely offensive and annoying comment because I do NOT pick my nails[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and I will leave a picture of my nails with this review so that you guys can tell me if there are any signs of me picking my nails. I think you'll agree that I actually have really healthy nail beds/cuticles. There's no peeling or any signs of damage and to top it off I went there solely because it was near Zara where I was picking up my dress for the wedding and it wasn't actually convenient at all for me to go back there twice to get nails put back on and JUST TO REITERATE this all happened within FIVE DAYS (day 2, day 4, day 5) of them being applied to my fingernails. But this is what really upset me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]After I adamantly denied picking my nails, the nail tech then tried to say that it had been two weeks since I'd first come (??!!?) implying that I was trying to like milk the system and get free nails put back on[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] even though it's really obvious from my other 7 fingers that these have not been on my nails even 1 single week and they're supposed to last for two weeks. so I don't like to leave bad reviews, but this left the worst taste in my mouth. I paid the $10 but I will never go there again and I really was shocked that they had me pay for it considering I had already paid basically $55 to get them done in the first place and they didn't last more than a day until one started falling off and three days when the second one fell off and then five days when the third one fell off and then rather than owning the fact that clearly they don't know how to apply gel X correctly, they blamed me and made me pay for the inconvenience of needing these nails reapplied three times. BOOOOOO Giving 2 stars bc they looked good but the quality of the application and of the customer service was TERRIBLE. UPDATE: K JUST DOWNGRADED TO 1 STAR BC MY LEFT HAND INDEX AND PINKY AND RIGHT HAND THUMB FELL OFF TODAY (in the pics I put a bandaged around my thumb bc I had initially planned to super glue it back on until The other two fell off). It has not even been a full week since I got them done! Going today to demand a refund read more

I came here for wax and gel manicure and pedicure on short notice while on vacation here in sf and [[HIGHLIGHT]]they were so nice, friendly and helpful![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They did great work on our nails and the wax also. Was really good to get both wax and nails done at the same location. So close to our hotel too it was perfect! Really appreciate them treating us right while on our super fun San Francisco vacation. The vibe was nice and everything was clean. One stop shop for wax and nails. Thanks so much to sutter nails! read more

I'm a very shy & quiet person. I went in and asked for a pedicure & full set. The pedicure, while rushed, was perfectly fine; the full set, on the other hand, was unfortunately pretty awful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff themselves were friendly, but after showing a reference picture (solid pink nail, no design) 4 different times throughout the manicure (I wasn't offered a color palette; they instead just picked one off the wall that they thought matched).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It seemed they couldn't handle being busy very well because my nails turned out pretty botched. I still paid full price with a tip but once I left out I came to realize just how much I didn't like my nails. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I decided to go in the next day when they opened so that I could ask for a fix without having to express my displeasure in front of other customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I showed them my nails side by side to the reference photo & it was clear to all that it should be fixed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was sat in the manicure chair when the owner came in and began yelling, and i mean *yelling* at me saying to "next time speak up instead of wasting her time by fixing it the next day".[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though I was pretty shaken up, I let her know that I in fact DID speak up, but it was brushed off.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She gave the excuse that my manicurist didn't speak English well and while that's perfectly okay...how is it my fault that I assumed they understood when I showed the photo and they nodded in agreement?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She proceeded to rant loudly about how ridiculous I was for coming in and kindly expressing my displeasure, while offering to pay for a replacement, until another customer came in, and even then she kept going, only quieter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was so uncomfortable and on the verge of tears, being directly yelled at while trying to explain that I wasn't trying to upset anyone. After an hour of work, the nails looked like the photo, again pink nails, no designs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While the other staff were nice enough, I won't be returning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I went in to get a gel pedi. Gel pedi was fine (it's been a couple of hours), but [[HIGHLIGHT]]the part that caught me off guard was one of the employees talking about her trip to India, very loudly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She didn't enjoy her trip, and the way she was talking down about the country was....more than questionable. I am very obviously brown, and was the only darker colored person in the salon, so it felt a little targeted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was really uncomfortable. At the very least, she could've spoken about how much she hated India once I left the salon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was really disheartening to hear.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Great mani but they charge $50 for a dip powder manicure and I only have 1 hand. They charged me $40 for one hand.

I booked an appointment online @ the time they opened because it was close to my hotel and it was simple and they texted and acknowledged my appointment and started services as soon as I arrived. It's small and not fancy and the staff are courteous. I got a Great powder dip- I got compliments at my event and by the TSA agent on my nails !! The pedicurist did a good job as well. I was concerned because I arrived @9:30 and by 10:00-10:30 it got busy and I thought the manicurist & pedicurist might rush through the service or I might be there for a long time while they worked on somebody else but they move and shake and get the job done . Really happy with the service @ Sutter Nails. read more

I'm always hesitant to try a new nail place, especially when I don't live in the same town. First of all, I love that you can make a reservation online. For me, that's worth extra stars. Secondly, it's a nice clean salon and the ladies are very welcoming. I got a gel pedicure and dip powder nails. Designs on both because I was on my way to Hawaii and wanted to feel a little extra Aloha spirit. Lily and her team did a phenomenal job. I was going for a Tiffany blue with silver glitter for my nails and Lily matched the colors and picture perfectly. Sutter Nails, hands down is my new favorite nail shop. In fact, I don't think I've ever been happier with a mani/pedi. So much so, that I made an appointment for when I'm in town next. Great prices, quick but un-rushed service and a really comfortable vibe overall. read more

What in the world !! This nail salon has to be the worst I've ever been to! My regular nail salon lotus nails was busy with a bridal party so I Stopped by here, what a shit show !! Save your time and money! Worst service, how do you mess up a regular mani and pedi ! She Didn't cut my cuticles ! Every one else gets a nice massage but I don't even get lotion! Older lady needs to either retire or get trained! They argue among each other and just switch places in vet and over all the customers seemed upset and confused as why are we getting up to 3 people working on one person! Just save your time and money or if you don't care for either than you get wait you pay For. read more

Since moving out here I'm in the market for EVERYTHING new. I have tried a few places but this one takes the cake. I really like that they are open late.

Thank you so much. read more

Sutter Nails - Just so cute - Nail Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

I really enjoyed my experience here! I'm from out of town and my nails were a little grown out, so I decided to walk in. The prices were comparable to home so I thought I would give them a try. Lily was really hospitable and open doing a dip manicure with a French design tip in gel. They came out really well! My only suggestion for a little more efficiency would be for them to have a few more ladies on staff. The nail techs were shuffling between different clients, so waits were a little long. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I gave two stars because they were nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Gel X, do not get it here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I made an APPOINTMENT, after they put the nail on, I I was told they did not have time (due to walk ins) to do my nails the way I wanted.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] (Paint 4 nails solid and a simple flower on the 5th nail) I will never go back. They are also super thick! I suggest if you want a good set of Gel X don't go here. I paid 82.00 and now I have to have my nails redone before my event tomorrow. Garbage, garbage, garbage. Also wanted Short coffin, ended up with almost a sqoval. Gel X people go somewhere else! read more

Lily and her colleagues always deliver quality work every time I come here. They have good prices, and they are consistent (other nail salons will tell you one price when you walk in and scam you into more when you're done, stacking on fee after fee even if you tell them everything from the get-go). I usually go for dipping powder ($50) and a design or two, usually paying no more than $70 + tip. Other salons have charged me $125 + tip for the same service. The ladies are friendly and accommodating. I've been there during busy and quiet times, and they work quick to make sure you are attended to. read more

After walking in, they said it would be a 10 min wait. After 40 mins of waiting, I decided to get up and leave. They stopped me and said they can get started right now. So I sat down after picking a color, they attended to customers who even came after me and started their services first. After an hour and a half, I stopped the technician after she removed my polish, paid 10.00 and left. Worst nail service ever, would not recommend! Very unsanitary, not once did she wash her hands in between clients! read more

Sutter Nails - Lavender French tips - Nail Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've been coming here for a year and then stopped for a few months due to the way I saw them treat another customer but decided to try again after a friend suggested I try again. What a bad decision. I made a specific appointment with Lili only to find out the day before (because I reached out after not hearing back for several days) that she wasn't even going to be there (yet I wasn't told). [[HIGHLIGHT]]As a result, I had to then move my appointment- to the night before Thanksgiving last minute (not convenient).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Then when I show up and she was running 45 minutes late (which seems to be happen each time)! I get that she was tired having just flown back from vacation but the manicure was rough - really hurt. She then told me after I picked a certain type of chrome polish that it would likely chip and to let her know if it did and she would fix it. Seems odd to even offer it then - and at a $10 surcharge. I didn't say anything about her being late or the rough manicure given she seemed not herself- and even tipped well. Everyone has a bad day is what I chalked it up to - but it was not a great experience. I wasn't sure what to make of the comments about the chrome polish but paid the $10 extra. It did indeed not only chip but a huge chuck came off the next day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Because it was Thanksgiving I didn't contact Lili until I came back to the city a few days later (a week after the manicure) and set a time to have the two nails fixed. She agreed to the time for me to come in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mind you I would've been fine paying to fix it if that was what was needed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I show up and the staff was very rude and Lili was not there. They acted like I had no appointment, that I hadn't even gotten my nails done there (even the guy who literally did my pedicure a week earlier and has done it multiple other times) and made me feel horrible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After another 40 minute of sitting there I texted Lili saying I needed to go. During this time I was waiting several other walk-ins came in and they proceeded to start working on them). They also had 2-3 people working on other clients - 1 could've left to help me (I see this complaint on other reviews). Lili then walks in and what transpired is still unbelievable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She was rude, very cold (wouldn't engage in any conversation when I asked how she was) and then implied that I was lying about when the chips happened to my nails. I've never been so insulted.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She also said "its never happened to any other client" "you must've done something" and made more insulting comments about how I waited 10 days to tell her (it was 8 days and I repeatedly said I didn't tell her the day it happened because it was a holiday and waited until I was back in SF).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was stunned. Why are you even engaging in this? I'm not trying to get three free nails repainted - I have better things to do. Just charge me instead of being rude. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You told me to come back and never said anything the day before I made the appointment - just waited to be rude in person in front of a bunch of people. Classless[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I could've saved a lot of time and just had them done elsewhere and not had you create a scene in front of several people. When I repeatedly said again it was Thanksgiving and I contacted you as soon as I got back to town she wouldn't let it go. It you want to be berated and called a liar simply because she told you to come back - or deal with rude staff - feel free. I will never go back and make sure my friends never refer here. read more
