Diane’s Nail & Spa

First time here, I live across the street from Diane’s. Getting a acrylic fill done with gel polish and French tip with Christmas design, my tech for it is Diane and my pedi tech is Nza. I’m very impressed with Nza’s work, she’s sooo gentle but manages to get the job done, my feet were very dry and needed a good scrub I barely felt it and wasn’t in pain at all the whole time. I recommend her. I’m also impressed with Diane’s work, no pain at all or burning during my fill and replace of my pointer finger nail. The shaping of the nails are nice square and long short, I told her I was very picky about the shape and id like to have them all even, she was able to do that for me as shown in the photos. I love how gentle they are, my feet are extremely sensitive but unfortunately I’m Alittle disappoints in my pedicure polish, not even, and my skin looks like it was done sloppy. Other than that, I would come here again. Good service and they understand what there saying. Just make sure you get Diane.

Girls will be girls… And let me tell you, girls love getting their nails done. I love pampering myself and getting a mani-​pedi is one of my favorite things to do when a big event is coming up. I decided to get my nails done for my birthday coming up and this nail salon was located across the street to where I was staying. It was very convenient because we had to catch a flight that day.
Luckily I came at a good time where there was no wait, but when I was getting my nails done, there were a lot of people who came in and had to wait. I suggest calling ahead to make sure that there is no wait.
I got gel polish which costs a little more than regular nail polish. I love that there are examples of the nails so that you can see what the color will look like when it is dry. I took a few minutes to decide what color I wanted, but they were very patient with me. They did my pedicure and manicure at the same time which was a plus because I was in and out in about 40 minutes. Both the lady and gentleman who did my nails did a good job. My nails turned out exactly how I wanted it! However I was a bit disappointed because I asked if they had decorative jewels for nail art and they said they didn’t have any :(
Overall I really liked this salon. It was reasonably priced and everyone there was very nice. I love how my nails turned out and I am birthday ready :)

Have gotten acrylics and fills done here. First job my nails were cut unevenly, when it came time for a fill I asked they be evened out and charged extra for it! Underneath my nails is horrible from the super glue they put on and then file down, trapping all the dust, which is never cleaned out afterwards. My nails were filed down extremely rough on the tips and the sides of my nails have no paint on them. Extremely disappointed for the amount of money and time.

Consistency and good customer service is a crucial part of a good business. With that said, this nail salon was a disappointment. I really tried to give them a chance because it’s steps from the doorstep. Sparing you the details, go here if you would like a mediocre gel manicure and over-​waxed eyebrows.

In a bind and this place was the closest. They are nice but forgot to cut cuticals. I had to ask she was lovely and did it. Also I don’t care but for those of you who do the 7 minute foot massage is more like a minute a foot. Friendly service great pricing. Awesome will def recommend and come back again!

*from my mother’s prospective*
I came in here for a gel manicure and did not leave with one. The manicurist proceeded to take off my gel nails just to do a regular nail manicure even after I specified that I wanted a gel manicure. After calling him out he didn’t know how to respond due to the severe language barrier from all the workers included too! The service was terrible and I don’t recommend this place. The majority of the workers are men and do not take their time and tend to be particularly rough. Not very pleased with what happened this evening. I keep trying to give it a chance but this was the last straw:(

Fantastic and fast very nice acrylic manicure but they forgot to trim my cuticles/​apply cuticle oil I had to ask for it and one nail broke a day later

I keep going back because I can walk to them but I absolutely do not like them. They do a very mediocre job and they recently raised their prices. Every time I go back they have less and less customers. Almost every time I’m there a customer gets mad at one of the workers for their poor work. I’m waiting for them to change ownership so I can enjoy going to my local nail shop.

Last time I came here it was old and dingy and they used plastic covered tubs for pedicures. Today it’s remodeled and clean. I love that they have spa chairs.
The pedicure was good but wished it was a little longer. I see that they get busier and don’t take as long as they probably should. Don’t like feeling rushed. Over all they have improved but could pay more attention to detail.

I need to update my nail shop. :(. Both of my go to manicurists have left. One left months ago and now my second went back to school. Good reason to leave but bummer for me. I started seeing the owner Diane. She does a good job but she does get busy. (She also does the waxing for customers.) I chose not to use the other manicurists only because I like to feel connected and have that one on one relationship, just didn’t feel that vibe. It’s personal for me, not because of bad nail jobs. Even tho they eventually warm up and are kind people, I just need to move on so I did.
I went to another place and if my polish stays on, I will review the new place and I will keep going there. :) Took a chance at the new place as everyone on Unilocal didn’t like it. To each is own, I shall see for myself.

*** The Babe says to me … «hey, let’s go out tonight». ***
Me: Sure, but whatcha gonna do with those gopher nails?
Her: Gopher nails?
Me: Yup, looks as if you’ve been dig’n holes or sump’n?
Her: It’s a rough economy, baby. Y’know you ain’t right!
Me: I will pay for a mani/​pedi b/​c those nails ain’t right.
Her: Oh you got jokes now? (lol) Ok then let’s do ‘em.
Came here 1hr before closing and that was a mistake.
The owner seemed rushed, distracted and rather rude.
Charged $ 42 for a gel, yet failed to trim nails off neatly.
How can an owner of a salon do such an unprofessional job?
When called out on it, she just shrugged and alluded to having
to be somewhere else soon. Whoa, never will ret’n here again.
*** I do not like writing bad reviews but Diane really earned it. ***

While a no frills salon, they did a fine pedicure. It was a comfortable experience and they have 5 spa chairs. For $ 17 I can’t complain. I had called and asked for an appointment in an hour and it was no problem and was in and out in 30 minutes. I agree with other reviews in that there are limited color choices, but a small issue.

OMGeeee… but why oh why did it take ol’ boy over an hour just to do a refill «/​…& he cut my cuticles til they were bleeding …& he didn’t properly put the acylic on — smh — half my real nails are exposed.
Sorry, this place is cool as far as the customer service & prices BUT the quality of the work is garbage. I’d rather pay more for a excellent job than pay less for a mediocore job.
xo

Hung did my gel nails and an older lady did my toes. I didn’t like my original toe color so she gladly redid them for me (which I always feel bad about but she was so kind and said she didn’t mind). Hung was very meticulous with my nails and again, their color choices were top notch. And $ 40 for gel nails and regular pedi? Sold! Def not a place u go to show off to your friends but it’s cheap, great colors and work.
Also. They close at 5:30pm on Saturdays but I called them at 5:45pm and she said that she’ll still take me as long as I got there in 5 minutes. AND they weren’t rushing me out (note: toe color change).

Sadly this nail salon has gone quite down hill. It seems all the ladies who have been there for a long time and do an amazing job, have been pushed out by the owner. The newer staff is terrible. They don’t know what they’re doing and myself and my friends and family have been cut and had bad work done. I would be shocked if any of the new staff have their licenses. I’m sad to write this review because I’ve gone to this salon for many years and had a great relationship with my nail tech~ Lynn. Not only was she my regular manicurist, she did my nails for all of my wedding events and throughout my pregnancy. Very sad she’s gone and the new staff is so awful.

I really like this place. They have a good selection of colors, simple process, nothing fancy and my nail polish has been lasting longer than normal. The nail files they use bug me so I will probably bring my own in next time but over all I have been pleased with the services. The pricing is great too. Sometimes I just run in for a color change rather than a full mani — $ 5 + tip or combine a color change with a pedi — $ 20 + tips. Can’t beat it!

To Good? BEST hand massage I have EVER received
The Bad: Not the best décor
The Ugly? Like others, I found the owner rude and rushed me out prior to my nails being dry. In fact, one of the nails crinkled and I asked her to fix it. She used her hand and smoothed it out — wow! I would have NEVER thought of that…

I dont care about spa chairs or bells and whistles that most salons have but with their attitude and shoddy job and lack of customer service, they might want to consider putting a few in. I had a mani/​pedi and waxing done. The mani was the gel so with all the services combined, I spent $$$ spent in their salon. Everything was rushed and they even skipped the massage on both the mani and the pedi!!! The owner is also rude. I’ve given this place a chance 3xs in one year hoping they were just having a bad day. Obviously the 3^rd time was not a charm. Oh and I forgot to mention, I picked out a gel color similar to what I already had on my nails… She said she was going to do a different color because the one I had on «didn’t look nice»… WTF?

I got my fiancé a gift certificate for a mani/​pedi. I was charged $ 23 for both and when she went to use they charged her an extra $ 20 and would not give her a reason. ??
The person who did her mani/​pedi was a man and flat out did a bad job. He even said to her «sorry I will do better next time». Yes, you should be sorry. There will be no next time.
Terrible experience for her and I do not recommend it.

I just recently moved to the area and was recommend to try Diane’s by a friend. I went not sure what to expect when she told me it would only be $ 23 for a mani/​pedi as I am use to paying $ 25-​$ 35 for just a pedi.
The women were super nice when we came in and not pushy to choose a color. I sat down and placed my feet in the warm water, and saw that the bath had been wrapped in a plastic bag, which is something I had not seen at any other place before.
I got my toes french tipped and the women asked how large I wanted my french tip to be, which was another first for me.
I should mention that this is not your typical nail place either. There are not vibrating chairs or all the other extras most nail places have. Also, if you forget to bring sandals, you can buy some for $ 2.
