Steph truly nails (ha...) it every time!! I heard about Steph at The Nail Cove from a Yelp friend and I never went anywhere else after that. She's a one woman show and has one on one appointments at her cute ocean themed salon. I believe she's accepting new clients at the moment, which means the fight for the next appointment continues! She is typically booked out by 2 or 3 weeks, so I literally need to plan ahead lol. Her IG is @stefykayynails for more inspo pics! I think Steph has chatted with me through so many phases of my life, and each visit is like a friend catchup session. Her dog, the most perfect Frenchie, is always very well behaved laying next to her with the occasional snoring :) My favorite thing to do right after my fresh mani is to scratch his ears LOL. read more

Thank you Stephanie for my beautiful manicure! Stephanie is meticulous and I was so impressed with her attention to detail. I was very excited for my mani after following Stephanie's work on Instagram. She has her own studio in an office building. The Nail Cove is clean and decorated with some very cute decor and plants. Stephanie's whole process made my nails look so clean and perfect. She started by removing my gel polish and cleaning my nails. There was no pushing and pulling of my cuticles which I liked. She has endless choices of polish, glitter, and stamps. I told her what I like and she picked the prettiest colors. I love my new mani! Stephanie's is a nail artist and her custom mani's do cost more than the standard nail salon, but she is well worth the price! I am looking forward to trying new colors and glitter and my nex read more

The Nail Cove - Perfect nude sparkling nails! - Nail Salons Near Me - Pleasanton, California

Stephanie does an amazing job EVERY single time. There's no worrying if your manicure is going to look perfect, she goes above and beyond perfection! She takes her time, pays so much attention to detail, and makes sure your nails look awesome before letting you leave. I'm so glad I was introduced to her. I get a little OCD with how my nails look if I go to other places, but I never have to worry about how she'll make them look. FYI, she's always super booked, because she's so good. So you have to book ahead of time! Sometimes weeks ahead. read more

Stephanie is an artist. It is immediatly evident that she enjoys and takes pride in her work, and the end results are amazing... she produced the kind of nail art that ends up on Instagram as "goals"! From a practical standpoint: expect to pay more for nail art here than your standard nail places. But it is well worth it... between her skills and comically large selection of polishes, it is well worth it. Also, keep in mind she runs this thing by herself! One other thing: book with her WELL in advance of when you think you want to get your manicure, as her appointment slots fill rapidly. Overall, I love The Nail Cove. This will be the place I go to for specialty manicures, rather than my standard bi-weekly ones. read more

I first found Stephanie through my sister who loved her first manicure and raved about her glitter designs. She is very creative and always down to try my fancy nail designs I find on Pinterest. She is on top of scheduling her appointments and is flexible to fit people back to back as my sister and I like to come together. My gel nails always last over 2 weeks without a single chip. It's never a bad time visiting Stephanie! read more

The Nail Cove - Amazing watercolor nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Pleasanton, California

I used to get my nails done on a regular basis and ended up stopping because I felt like it was just a waste of my money. My gel polish and acrylic would always chip within a few days. I decided to go see Stephanie for a special party I had coming up. She gave me a gel manicure and a regular polish pedicure. Stephanie took her time and my nails and toes ended up looking amazing. She took the time to clean up my cuticles and nail bed, something that most nail shops charge extra for these days, but most importantly she did not cut or nic me once or get me with her drill. I swear every time I have gotten my nails done in the past I have been hurt and bleeding every single time. It was nice to be able to enjoy my manicure and not worry about being hurt. Most importantly 2 Note it has been 5 weeks and I do not have one chip in my gel manicure! That in itself is worth the few extra bucks an extra 20 minutes of my time. Oh and her nails looked absolutely beautiful, something which you never see in most nail salons. Perhaps it is because she uses her tools correctly on you instead of using her own nails to complete the manicure. I would give her 10 Stars if I could go see her you won't regret it. read more
