Superb Nails

As a business owner, I probably observe other businesses more observantly. If I have a great experience I analyze it, and when I have a bad experience I try to learn from it. I had a bad experience this evening. I tried a new nail place. I was their last customer. When I made my appointment I offered to come in the morning when they opened, but was encouraged to come the night before. However, when I arrived 7 minutes late, they let me know how unhappy they were. No smiles, no conversation. I was not asked how I wanted my nails shaped or the length. I told her I wanted them to be cleaned up, even length. She cut them down. Things were thrown around and I was very rushed through treating my nails. I was asked to pay up front. As soon as my toenails were painted. My shoes were put on and told we need to go. Not giving any time for the paint to settle or start to dry. I tipped the girls well, but I will never return. I informed the owner, I closed my business early, fought rush hour traffic to have my nails done. Being friendly to your customers goes a long way.

I used a group on so it was cheap but that is the ONLY reason why I went there, the lady couldn’t speak any English didn’t even understand when I was telling her she kept tipping me and she didn’t massage me and gave me attitude the entire time, horrible experience!

Very bad experience! Me and my friend had gone for pedicure and we were shocked to receive below mediocre service. The ladies who did the pedicure for is were very unfriendly, very rough, and unkind. They were hurrying the whole process and they spent hardly 30 minutes for a spa pedicure! Wherever i have been, it takes atleast an hour for a spa pedicure. The massage was literally 2 min.
Will never go again and will not recommend anyone! Stay away from this nails place!

This place is exactly opposite to their name. They should call themselves «Worst Nails». I have never been to a place so bad. My friend and I were so excited for our pedicure outing and this place made sure to ruin our experience. The girls here are extremely extremely rude! They dont respond to you, stare at you, and feels like when they are talking to each other they are bitching about you! Extremely disgusting service! We brought a groupon for spa pedicure and these girls didnt even massage our feet for 2 mins! The nail paint was coming off and she didnt clean it up for me… i had to tell her to clean it up for atleast 5 nails! Believe me not even 2 mins! Horrible service. Will not recommend to anyone. Please dont come here ever!

Awesome every time I’m there… Tina does my manicure and Jenny does my pedicure…8 years strong

I came by here on accident to get my paws painted. I ended up going the old school route and getting a full set of pink and white french manicure.
The women do a fantastic job and carefully took the time in making my nails look just right. My full set was $ 26.00 which is a steal for a french mani.
The shop is clean with plenty of complimentary water bottles.

Sadly my orchid pink shellac color completely faded to ugly cream in 6 days and it was a sloppy job to begin with. Unfortunately I can’t say anything positive :/
I dropped off the kids at play-​well and needed my shellac redone.
Their shellac is cheaper at $ 26 than the normal $ 28-​$ 30.
I came in Wednesday around 10:30 and it was empty. I had my shellac removed, nails slightly filed. I was sort of in a rush and debated whether to have a plain manicure or shellac but the tech assured me I had time.
Well, idk if it’s my fault, but the shellac is not the best. The edges are sloppy. EVEN MY MAN NOTICED IT WAS CRAPPY-​ESPECIALLY THE EDGES. Wow. The bottoms will start to lift soon. My nails are slightly uneven.
Honestly, the last shellac I had at Lamorinda Nails was THE best. These are just very sloppy and disappointing. The employees are pretty nice though.
BOTTOM LINE: 4 days later and the color is completely FADED

I came here today with my bridal party-​5 girls and my mom-​to get mani-​pedis for my wedding tomorrow. First off, the fact I was able to schedule an appt for half a dozen girls on a Saturday afternoon was a huge win. We had the place pretty much to ourselves and the ladies were super friendly, professional and did a great job with our mani-​pedis. I typically don’t get my nails done since I have a tendency to mess them up the minute I leave the salon (actually, I did mess up my toe while trying to dry them-​thank god they fixed that without laughing at me too hard!). But, they did such a great job, my nails still look great a week later! Also, they honored a 10% discount they had on their website even though I forgot to bring the coupon in and before we left, they gave me a card to congratulate me on my wedding! How sweet is that? I’ll definitely be coming here from now on!

I came here the other day for a pedicure after a long day at work and I LOVED it! It was $ 22 which is VERY reasonable and was well worth it. The salon is really clean, the chairs look new and the staff is extremely friendly! They greeted me right away and welcomed me with open arms. The massage was fantastic too. I wish I knew the ladys name who helped me because she did a great job! I would recommend this place!

They were awesome! Even stayed after closing time to finish our nails! Very impressed!

Always friendly, clean and they do a great job.

Superb Nails was recommended to me by a co-​worker that had been going there for years. Tina (owner) is the best for acrylics. She’s fast and she does a fabulous job. Very caring and gentle. All the gals are very friendly and good at what they do.
If you go there with a group of people without having made an appointment, don’t expect to get service right away. Common curtesy says, «call ahead». Thinking about taking your daughters for a treat? Call ahead as well. Then you don’t have to wait. If it’s crowded wait until later or make an appointment while your there.
It’s such a fun experience.

This is by far the best nail salon i have been to yet. Usually, i try to treat myself to a fancy upscale mani/​pedi near work in San Francisco, but I’m located in the East Bay, so, why not? I didnt have an appointment and was able to be seated right away. They had ECXELLENT customer service as soon as i walked into the door. The owners were very in tune with the clients and made sure everyone was comfortable and attended to. I usually get shellac, and they really took their time. its nice to actually relax and get a mani pedi in environment like this. they took their time with massaging my feet and legs! OMG. AMAZING! and my shellac held up for a very long time. i will definately be coming back here. the service all around was worth more than 5 stars

WOW! It had been weeks since my last manicure and I just couldn’t stand it any longer. I was in the area running errands and decided to stop by Superb. The service was quick and very friendly. They made me feel right at home. The price was more than fair considering the quality of work. LOVE MY NEW NAILS!

I decided to treat my little girls to a mani/​pedi. As usual, when we walked in we were greeted but as soon as I told them what I wanted, they acted as if it was ridiculous and not worth their time. They gave me some ridiculous wait time so we went somewhere else. We ended up going right across the street to Top Ten and had a wonderful time!!!
I’ve been here before and they are nice and do an okay job but every time I went in, the price changed. I deiced to go somewhere more consistent.

This is the Holy Grail of nail salons. The service, cleanliness, and ambiance is what sets this place apart from any other nail shop that I’ve been to. I’m always greeted with a warm smile by one of their staff as soon as I walk in, and they always manage to seat me within minutes with or without an appointment! Their technicians are very meticulous and leave my nails looking great every time. I’m also very pleased that a new set of tools is used on me from the previous client, so I know they focus on being clean. N the place is always very neat and tidy, which I’m very particular about! Another awesome thing about superb nails is that they take their time, which I love. After all, I get my nails done to feel relaxed, not rushed. I also like that they have a wide polish selection and their prices are very reasonable. Overall I would say superb nails definitely lives up to it’s name!

I’ve been getting my nails done for years now so I’m extremely picky. This salon is a no nonsense salon but they do excellent nails. I usually get a pedi and fills. The ladies are nice, their tools are sterile, the place is clean and you can usually walk right in. I’m a fan for sure.

Nice place! Lots of magazines lined up, but not cluttered. Most of the employees use gloves and the nail files and clips they use come out of a fresh new bag, so you know hygiene is not a problem.

The name really says it all. They are truly fantastic and the best place I’ve found on the east bay.
They always have availabilities for walk ins, quick, professional, and the work is flawless. I have gel nails and everytime I go here I can easily go 4 weeks before my next fill– they never lift and always look great!
I highly recommend going here!!!

As always, when I’m in search of a new place to go, I turn to my fellow Unilocalers! And, as always, I was not disappointed!
So far I have had a Pedicure and Pink and Whites done here and I really enjoyed the experience! The first time I came here, I didn’t have an appt. and even though they were pretty busy, I only had to wait about 20min. The next time, I made an appt and they took me right away!
The girls are very sweet and efficient. The leg massage was to die for and my pedicure lasted about two weeks. My Pink and Whites only took a total of about 45min which is faster then any place I have gone before. I am a bit picky about my nails all being even and she was very patient with me as I nit picked a few nails.
40 bucks is about average for Pink and White and I am looking forward to my first fill to see how well they do at that!
I would definitely recommend this place!
