Amazing Nailspa & Tanning

Went there two months ago and it was less than average. Used to come here all the time and it was great. Great selection of nail polishes.
Decided to try again today.
Why have pedicure options if no employee knows what the high end ones are? My lady and the manager were so confused to what their Deluxe pedicure was. Didn’t want to pay 65 bucks when they don’t even know what’s included. Got the $ 45 one. It all comes down to the massage. For 45 bucks I expect something decent. I think she forgot I had feet and just rubbed my legs 90% of the time. Hmm then insisted I got extra massage time. Okay. We all know nail polish has to be applied in thin coats. When it came to the glitter I chose she put it on in blobs. Anddddd no top coat. I walked out and walked right back in because it had already rubbed off. She added more blobs of glitter.
The lady who did my fingers was good actually. Very fast and I like that. I was just getting a fill with gel and she insisted my cuticles were bad. So I got that done. She grabbed lotion and started putting it on my arms and hands and I thought uh oh I hope she’s not confused but it only lasted about 10 seconds on each arm so I thought aw she’s just being nice. Go to pay and they tried to charge me 55 for my hands alone. Wth??? I was so upset and said that’s ridiculous. And she said you got gel manicure. And I said no I didn’t I got a fill with gel and she says and cuticles and I say so that adds up to 55?! And she says no 50. And I’m like holy crap that’s more than the hour pedicure I got and it only took her maybe 20 mins at the most to do my hands. So then they tell me okay we take 10 off… I hate feeling cheated. They started trying to convince me that their prices are low and just like everyone else’s and I’m like noooo places don’t charge 55 for that. Not even the place I go to in rancho mirage.
I hate complaining and arguing. And I didn’t with them and I still tipped 20 percent. Butttt I won’t be back.

Worst gel manicure I have ever had! They cut my nails so short they hurt for a few days after. Not to mention she made my 2 of my cuticles bleed! Not to mention they have NO design skills available! I would never return or recommend this place! D&T Nails is so much amazing it is worth the drive!!!

I have never been disappointed. All the technicians are very good and walk ins are welcome. They have just completed an extensive renovation and the place looks better than ever. I’ve taken my whole family there, even a 63 year old male cousin who had never had a pedicure, and pretty unattractive feet, I might add! He was impressed too!

I have been coming to Amazing Nails and Spa for a couple years now and love it. I always make an appointment with the same gal and am never disappointed. The owner is very kind and always does her best to ensure you are comfortable and enjoying your service (s). Highly recommend!

Came here for a fill. Got seated with Nina. Told her «hi» and didnt get any response back. I asked her for sharp pointed nails. What I got was some nails longer than others, some rounded at the end, some square and choppy at the end. the lack of pointedness that I asked for as well a lack of attention to detail and evenness in length and shape killed me so I asked Nina if I could use her nail file real quick. I started fixing the ends of my nails and evening out the shape and she grabbed the file from me and started to file the nails again herself. I still ended up with uneven length and shape but decided I can just file them myself when I get home. Then one of the other lady nail techs came to polish my nails and paint the clear coat on them. She put a ton of top coat on there so I ended up sitting for 20 minutes in front of the fan waiting for my nails to dry and still ended up messing up the polish. at this point I just asked how much I owed them, knowing that the price list said $ 20 for a fill. The lady told me $ 25. I asked her if they charge for a pointed nail shape and she said «yes I guess so.» I told her that’s frustrating since I ended up filing my nails myself but gave her 30 dollars anyways and walked out. Would not recommend this place if you want even shaped nails and good customer service. Time to go home and fix my nails.

I have been coming here for 5years, and I won’t go anywhere else. I will only go to kathy! I am always well taken takin care of.

Yes, it is clean and pretty, and in a really nice area, and I am sure it has its strong points, but my tech butchered my nails and cuticles. I wish I would have gotten his name, he was short, salt and peppered hair probably late 40s or early 50s. He almost spoke like he was a manager…
He gave me the worst gel manicure ever. As soon as I sat down and said I wanted a gel mani he almost tried to talk me out of it, offering acrylics instead. He said that there is no guarantee on how long they last. I politely declined. He asked again and said my nail beds were «short and wide» so it would look better. I told him I had been growing them out for several months and it was important to me. He soaked them while he did my pedicure. The pedicure was fine, and that’s why I’m rating it two stars. The manicure was awful. Knicked a couple cuticles, cut my nails SUPER SHORT, and obviously is not an avid gel applier because it’s somewhat caked around my cuticles and thick. Basically it sucked, my nails are all short again and I went to El Paseo with certain expectations and they weren’t met.

A friend and I went in today to get our brows done, hoping to get Kathy. (I have used Kathy for 5 years and recently moved away) Kathy is very good. Kathy sent in a girl named Christina. She was terrible. We are here on vacation and my eyebrows are all jacked up. I have never had my brows look this bad. My friend, different story. She had skin peeled off her eyelid on her right eye! Her left eye, she is missing half of her brow. It’s pretty bad… Please be forewarned. Kathy is great. Christina was not!

I love my manicurist Johny and would not go to anyone else in the desert. My gels last better than I have ever experienced before. Johny is very professional and has a big following. I would highly recommend him.

I have paid for dozens of gel manicures in Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles, and this was hands down one of the best gel manicures I have ever gotten. Christine was amazing! She always made sure I was comfortable and she was a perfectionist with my nails. She took her time and made sure that the nail polish was on just right. Even after my manicure was done, she filed away any imperfections. So far it’s been a few days and my nails show no signs of chipping. I would definitely recommend Christine and this place!

This is my first Unilocal review. I feel so disgusted with this salon that I felt the need to write. From my one experience at this salon, I sincerely think it ought to be closed down. I made an appointment over the telephone and they weren’t ready and kept me waiting until somebody was available.
The lady who worked with me could not speak English and if that wasn’t frustrating enough, I later learned that these people are not trained to provide customers regular manicures. I have real nails, as opposed to gel or acrylic. However, she sawed away at my nails as though they were fake. It turns out, after speaking with manager, this is the way these ladies are trained. I was shocked. It was bad enough when she sawed back and forth on my nails, but she didn’t have the correct tools to trim my nails. There was no soaking of my cuticles.
I would rate this the worst manicure experience possible.

Today was my first visit. It was great. Every one was very nice and attentive. I followed my nail guy here from another shop. I do silk and am very particular. I like them thin and strong. PETER makes sure I am well taken care of. Today I got my brows waxed, a silk fill and a pedicure. He honored the price I paid at the other shop and I was delightfully surprised the price for the pedi and brows was decent. The shop is bright and has lots of windows. I highly recommend this shop for the basics. Go see Peter, tell him Brittany Sent you. He will definitely do an amazing job time after time! !

When the world is a post-​apocalyptic desert wasteland (that still values nail care) this will be the the template. Entering the big main room is like the belly of the mani/​pedi beast, where a staff that manages to be hurried without being efficient will shunt you from station to station with wet nails and wild eyes.
In addition to an environment that is the antithesis of a relaxing spa, the service is extremely poor. My sister’s pedicurist was on the phone for the entirety of her appointment. My pedicurist told me that I really needed a callous removal (something that should come standard in a spa pedicure) and then tried to charge me an extra $ 20 for it. My mom’s pedicurist jammed her feet hurriedly into her sandals in order to turn over the chair to another client and ended up messing up the nails– she rolled her eyes as she fixed them. In all 3 cases, as soon as our nails were painted, they yanked us out of the chairs and off into the waiting area– yelling «get out!» at us and slamming the door would not have been any clearer.

When im in the area or near palm springs or for a wedding I come here to do my nails.
I have never experienced a problem here. They do great acrylics, manicure and pedicure.
I come from orange county and wish I can get the same service as I do here
I only go to johnny he is most friendly guy here he is extremely professional.
I am very picky with my nails and when I tell him what I want he does exactly what I want.
Book an appointment with him and you womt regret it. He is off on mondays though and it does get busy.

Worst case of false advertising ever. This business ought to be shut down. I would not be surprised to discover that these people did not pass their California state boards. I went in for a manicure, came out with nubs after having my nails sawed back and forth. Later was told after making my appointment and showing up that these women are not trained in how to work with natural nails.

I used to get acrylics and now I do the gel manicure, Yvonne does a great job! Love going to her.

Love this place. I was talked into getting the powder gel on my nails because I have SUPER thin nails and can’t grow them out because they break… well this stuff they put on made my nails super hard and I LOVE it! They’re not breaking, and best of all its all natural stuff… also, I don’t have to have the fake acrylic nails that are bad for the natural nail.
Can’t wait to go back to get it done again, although it was $ 35, I feel like it was well worth it (especially because I got my acrylic nails taken off and now my nails are getting healthy and growing amazingly)!!!
The pedis are great too, but I was just super excited about my nails (had them done with just the «gel» at another place, it was a joke, glad I came back here and got it fixed).

I got a spa mani pedi. The guy doing my pedi was friendly but the lady doing my nails was kind of cold. I was asked if i wanted a foot scrub and was told it would be extra. So nice that they tell you before hand. I did have a good experience. One lady with no personality is not going to ruin my time.

Located off El Paseo in a big, bright space, Amazing Nailspa and Tanning is a clean, professional nail salon.
With at least 15 stations, they are easily able to handle walk-​ins, although if you want a specific service provider, an appointment is recommended.
There may be more luxurious places that pamper you to a greater extent, but for a quick mani-​pedi Amazing Nailspa and Tanning is a good choice in Palm Desert. _​Amazing_​it may not be, but Amazing Nailspa and Tanning, provides good service at fairly reasonable prices.

Very nice place! I had a mani-​pedi that looks terrific; I don’t get polish, just a buff, and that was no problem for them (some places make you feel stupid for not wanting polish.) Yvonne, who was recommended to me, was a star — very personable but not intrusive or overly chatty. I’ll definately return to her.
They’ve got a huge space, full of light, and a ton of staff, including male staff! All the pedi stations have massage chairs & dedicated foot tubs. There’s a little bit of a chemical smell on entering, but it wasn’t enough to bother me (and I’m pretty sensitive to that.)
They do both walk-​ins & appointments — since I wanted to try Yvonne, I made an appointment, but I was able to get it the same day.
