Howe’bout Nails Salon

I’m very picky on where I go for mani/​pedis and eye brow waxes so I was a bit hesitant to come here because of the rating. But I decided to give it a try.
I went on a Wednesday afternoon so it wasn’t busy. I was able to get a spot right away. For my pedicure, it was just like any other pedicure. Which is a good thing. But I was impressed with my eye brow wax. They were very gentle so it didn’t hurt as much.
I would definitely come back here again.

I have a new nail place! Kim did a wonderful job. Meticulous and my toes and fingers look wonderful. Thanks to my friend/​coworker for the referral! Going to take my daughter too! Great price too!

Worst place for a gel mani! The women here can not speak English so just telling them what you want is difficult. I asked for a French gelpolish. Worst color ever! She didn’t get the corners or the top part of my nails. Looked like my manicure was 2 weeks old already. I asked her to fix it but because of the poor communication skills she ignored me. I DO NOT recommend this place to anybody nor will I be returning. I only stopped by because I was at the nordstorm rack shopping and decided for a mani. Another thing this place is very filthy/​dirty and it stinks. Avoid this place!

Terrible, I would not recommend this place. The lady that did my pedicure was so rude! Not only did she not do a good job, she had attitude, rushed me, was pushy about being paid while my nails were still drying, and sweeped my cousin’s shoes with a dirty broom towards her as she rushed her out!

They suck don’t take there time and are not good at all hate my nails super ugly she didn’t even shape my nails right!!!

I try to find cute and unique designs to do on my nails but because this was a new salon I decided to do something pretty simple. I asked for pink on my small toes and my large toe to be white and black striped. She said that would be,“ugly”. I then showed her a different design and after some arguing she agreed to do it. It’s not like it was difficult, these ladies were plain lazy. The worst part was that they were talking about us and laughing in another language. I know it was about my design choice because her hand language suggested so. I find that very unprofessional. Needless to say, I will not be back here.

Anh has been doing my nails for a couple of years. Love this spot.

I have been coming here for about 5 years and love it! I always see Brenda who is very accommodating even if you don’t have an appointment. The $ 20 pedicure is really nice and very affordable! The only downside about this nail salon is that they are cash only. However, they do have an ATM machine inside to pull out money but it charges a fee of a couple dollars :(other than that, I LOVE this place!

I love this nail salon, I’ve been going here for years and the ladies are always really good! My favorite nail tech is Brenda. Put for pedicures, anyone is good! You can’t beat a good $ 20 pedicure!

They have great massage chairs for pedicures. Also, what ever they use as a top coat makes the pedicure polish last longer than any other place I’ve ever been.

Whaaat… J-​Lo gets hers done here too??? J/​K! Did walk in today for a pedi. The place is definitely no frills, but the massage chairs were new. Cash only, ATM in back. Older place, older building. Nice staff. A little confusion when I was finished with my pedi… Was I done? How long do I sit here? Anyway, very convenient location. The shopping center is packed with Girrrl shops. Nuff Said!

Great little place if you are shopping in the area. I always enjoy those ladies companies because they have great convo and cute fashion in their little clothes and cute shoes!
The pedicures are really great an that’s the best part of it if you want your money’s worth for a service there. I like the way they are upfront about how they do nails and what they think will look good. Usually customers don’t like that but I do love a second opinion.
Flaws are that it can’ be a wait if they are busy and they just ask you to come back later nonchalantly. They like to close immediately. They usually won’t stay open late for other customers. Anddd it’s cash only but they have the ATM Inside. Charges a fee though Bleh. And when they do designs it’s Just okay in my perspective. No 3-​d objects or anything that I’ve seen done…
So yay for bein fabulous Asian women with great pedicure skills and social antics that always make me smile but I prefer other places if I want to spend a ton of money somewhere and be charged an ATM fee lol.

The lady who does eyebrows there is the best.
As for a pedicure I got, it ok. Standard, nothing special. Very reasonably priced.

I went to the nail salon at 9:45am and I have been debating on getting my nails done, but last minute I changed my mind. I got a full set gel with black tips. Brenda who opens the shop in the morning did my nails. She did a good job on painting it and putting the gel. the whole appointment only took an hour and she was gentle with filing and buffering my nails.
Here is the menu from what I remember:
Acrylic — 24 — full 15-​fill
Gel — 27 full 20-​fill
Fiberglass — i don’t remember
Pink & White — 40
so she did a good job and i got to say gel is a lot better than fiberglass. the shop looked like any other normal nail salon. i do not think it was run-​down looking. when i went there she was vacuuming and cleaning before the rest of her employees came into work. she was very friendly and talkative. i enjoyed my time spent over there. i did realize that they do use their feet like hands, but hey i do that sometimes too. lol… so i think it is normal, but others might think it differently.

When I used to live in Sac, I went to this place for 5 years-it’s not the fanciest, but the service is great and if I came to them for 5 years, it must say something. This is my Sacramento nail salon when I’m in town-​I won’t go anywhere else. Brenda always does my full set nails-​she also does colored gel powder tips-she’s so creative you just tell her what color you want your nails and she can do it. I always made an appointment, but if for some reason I forgot to, I would come on Saturday mornings (10a). The owners & technicians are very nice and the prices are reasonable.

Shop is dirty and a bit run-​down (several chairs were out of order).
The «massage» chairs weren’t working at all. The woman working on my pedicure was very sweet but seemed to be new. She actually hurt me while cutting my cuticles and then proceeded to paint on the thickest white line for my french pedicure. All the tips were uneven.
A customer walked in and I found myself being damn near pushed out of the salon. She drained the tub, and then had me walk a couple of feet away BAREFOOT to a chair and brought over an air dryer. I dunno. I should have walked out right at the very beginning.
Before heading home (to take off the horrible polish) I stop by another salon to get my eyebrows threaded. The threader took one look at my feet and said, «Ummm … you should come here for your pedicures, the polish is very uneven.»
Gah. The place was busy each time I passed it, so I assumed they did a decent job … won’t be fooled again.
