Diamond Nail Salon And Spa

I’ve been here three times and always got the shellac manicure and shellac pedicure. 2 of the 3 visits I left very disappointed. And it was always with the same technician.
My first visit my technician, on my shellac manicure, was on her phone the whole time. By that I mean, her attention was on her phone the whole time. She had it ‘hidden’ in her drawer and was constantly looking down to it and would even stop my service to be on it. I almost said something afraid it would effect the quality of my nails, but by her poor attitude I assumed she was having a bad day and just let it slide. Of course, my nails did suffer as they chipped quickly.
The second time I went was with my cousin. I had two different ladies doing my shellac manicure and pedicure and have no complaints. My big right toe did chip and break off, but I may have stubbed it and do not necessarily put fault on the service given.
My third and last time I was there I had the same lady from my first visit doing my shellac manicure. She was in a good mood which to me confirmed that on my first visit she was just having a bad day, but that didn’t change the quality of service I got. Within 2 days of having my nails done I had 4, yes FOUR, nails chip.
I called in and asked if they could see me at 5:30 to fix it. They seemed confused, but of course said yes. During happy hour with a girlfriend we took a better look at my nails and realized it was a poor job all around. Some nails the polish didn’t reach to the bottom of my nail bed or to the sides and there seemed to be ‘holes’ in the coloring. I just let that be. When I arrived to have my chipped nails fixed they made me wait 30 minutes and seemed incredibly annoyed and treated me like it was my fault.
So, I give caution if you’re looking to save some money by going here. You will definitely get what you are paying for. And if you do decide to go, I recommend staying away from the technician that has a birthmark on the right side of her face and sits at the second chair on left side of shop. She is the one that I always had issues with my shellac nails, phone and attitude. (That is the best way to point her out and in no way mean any harm describing her like that)

They do a great job! Always pleasure with my nails and pedicure except they need to work on customer service not very friendly but is a good place for nails and pedicure, Very decent price.

Today another client in the salon informed me that Kathy was saying extremely negative remarks about our appearances in Vietnamese. We are both tan Asians. Apparently she called us «dark» among other disturbing racist comments. Kathy denied it but I believed the customer because she was very specific about the remarks she used and seemed to know the language. Shame on her and this establishment for very unprofessionally saying racist comments about their customers.
I come here often because my nails turn out great, but it’s not worth being subject to such oppressive conversation.

Don’t get your nails done at this place don’t do it!!! Not only did they over charge for a fill and pedi but the nail filing was a disgusting mess. I tried asking for my nails to get filed correctly multiple times (coffin shaped) before the gel was applied to my acrylics. This was none of their concern as they proceeded to apply the gel in a clumpy mess and file over it once it was dry leaving my nails to look dull and even more uneven. My best friend who also went to get a fill had a nail fall off a week later due to the poor quality of the work. Now please save your money and don’t spend it here. The nail polish colors are off the charts but the quality is shitty. Save yourself time and don’t overpay for a bad job!

Found this place on Unilocal and took a risk. I’m super picky. Here’s why they just won my business: they actually stuck to appointment time. Most places make the appointment then make you wait cause they’ve tried to fit in as many as possible. Kathy was awesome. I asked her to do some elaborate designs I found on Pintrest, she didn’t hesitate saying yes and then whipped it on like a artist. The price is more than reasonable. She could’ve charged per finger for design but didn’t.
I went in again with my daughter who is also picky, she too was impressed with service and artistry. She gets acrylics and they did a really good job.
This place is professional and personable. I’m committed.

Seriously??? It’s as if they HAD to finish up my mani/​pedi in under 20 minutes! — The water for my hands was super HOT! When I said something, she said: No it’s not! (Ok, so now I’m a liar!)
Then they rushed through the whole service, pulling my arms so that she didn’t have to reach all over to the right!
And when they finished up my pedi, they didn’t even give the polish a chance to dry! They put my flip flops on and raised the arms on the chair! — And my nails are covered in sharp corners and jagged edges! — Horrible!

Kathy was such a great nail artist and she did a full set acrylic in such a short amount of time! I loved the results. I will most definitely be back for her!

I love love love my nails! Kathy did a full set and took off my old nails. I love the shape and they have so many gel colors it took me forever to find a good place.

I got a pedicure and pink & white nails and got charged $ 5 extra on top of my tip. The lady that did my pedicure cut the side of my big toenail and now I have an ingrown toe nail. The lady that did my pink & white nails cut my cuticles so deep that I have scabs. She also gave me a crappy flower design on my nails.

I recently started going to this nail salon and so far so good. I’ve been back twice (1^st to get a full acrylic set and 2^nd to get a fill). I like the first set the best because they stayed on for a long time with no breakage. The 2^nd time I went in I told the lady that I wanted them shorter but they were still pretty long when I left. I liked the results both times and I highly recommend them because their prices are unbeatable but I will definitely make sure I get them shorter next time because I type a lot at work and the long nails are not for me: p

Tracy did my toes, great basic spa pedicure. Kathy did my gel manicure and it is perfect! I walked in around opening on sunday and the place got busy quick! There was no wait since I arrived at 9am but would recommend an appointment if youre pressed for time. The shop is clean and they have tons of higher quality nail polishes and gel colors. This is quality work and I will return, just a heads up it is in the hood but those are the ones that do awesome work.

I tried giving them another chance… this time I got Thuy even though I specifically asked for Kathy or Tina when I made my appointment. They just look absolutely horrible. When she was halfway done doing my nails a former customer came in, and I felt like she was just rushing through me to get to the next customer. Definitely did not tip.
If you know what coffin nails look like you definitely know how poorly this was done…
Also, I asked for short nails, and to me they seem long.
She asked me if I wanted gel nails numerous times, even though i said no.

If Kathy wasn’t there I probably wouldn’t continue going, not bc of service, but bc she is the standout and the only one with a personality. Not that I need someone w/​a great personality to do my nails.
I have them 4 stars mainly because the place, although clean, is in desperate need of a makeover. I always get a gel manicure ($ 15) when I go. I mean, why pay for reg mani when gel lasts 2+weeks. Right? The only down side to that is, for some reason — even though you pay much more for gel — they only give you a hand/​arm massage for about minute! Why so skimpy on the time? When getting a pedicure they do take their time.
I recommend this place. And don’t worry about the amount of ppl waiting, they are fast.

If you can get there early then please do so. This nail shop is so great they are ALWAYS busy! Great atmosphere, they play the News all day long, it’s not loud, and the prices are fair. Cathy did my full set & she did amazing! I’m a regular client here & I won’t go anywhere else unless it’s Kim’s nails in NP (when Diamond’s is too crowded). Huge variety of colors, not too big of a place but it works. Pedicures are awesome too, $ 13 can’t beat it.

Called on the phone, the lady said «we busy come in, in an hour». Hour later, I walk in. First thing I ask. «how long is the wait for a pedicure?», she lied and said 5 minutes. I looked over at all the people sitting down and flash a look at her, she lies again and says «oh no worry they all wait for manicure». I believed her. I sit down after 40 minutes I’m totally irate when 2 of the ladies waiting for a «manicure» get seated for a pedicure. I want to leave but I thought, I already waited this long. I get seated and wait another 15 minutes to even be attended to.
WHAT THE HELL. Who waits a freaking hour to get a simple pedicure? On top of that tell me the freaking truth so I can walk out instead of wasting my time. I wasted 2 hours in what should have been a 45−60min visit.
Now. I understand this is an extremely cheap place to get your nails done. so I guess all I can say is, you get what you pay for. So needless to say, I will not be returning to this place. Plus the few times I came there were so many people and every time the ladies working talked NONSTOP! To eachother and on the phone. So it was super noisy with them talking, the customers talking and on top of that, the TV playing random crap nobody cared for.
The pedicure itself was quick and mediocre. And the two times I did get a manicure, the never fully pained my nail. They left cracks all around that made the manicure look super sloppy.

I use to get great service but lately they have been real crappy down to there attitudes first the lady with scare on her face clumps a hole bunch of nail polish on my nail and it never dried decided to give them another chance I was burned 2 times after 3 days I have 3 chipped and broken nails and there shaped horribly

I just left this place with the most sloppy nail set ever, the lady that did my nails cut me twice.
If I could rate them 0 stars, I would.
They suck at doing nails.

You get what you pay for. It’s a no frills salon, but you can’t beat it for the price. I’ve been pleased with my pedicures on each visit, and have gotten same day reservations each and every time. The waiting line of guests shows a solid following. It’s so close and so affordable, I’ll continue to be a client.

$ 13 for a pedicure! Yes please… But we sure found out why it was so cheap…
Diamond is located in a not so pleasant area and the service isn’t the high quality you find at higher end nail salons. Place smelled like strong nail polish with no ventilation. We came in and the owner greeted us and was friendly. We waited for like 20 minutes for pedicures and finally got seated. It was busy on a Sunday noon. The older lady doing my BFs pedicure wasn’t so nice as she had a slight attitude. He then told that lady I was Vietnamese… So that’s when she started smiling and stopped the attitude.
No nail salon ladies ever think I’m Vietnamese since I look Japanese or Filipino. I Always listen to their convos, and trust me, half of it IS smack. Anyway, that lady who did my BF rushed through his. The lady who did mine did a fair job. Not great but fair. No foot or leg massage with that price. It literally is a foot wash, clean and polish. We added callus removal for an extra $ 5. I didn’t see any other add on option like parafin.
We’ll probably come back since it’s so cheap if we really just want a no frills pedi. Really just the basics.

Called to make a last min appointment for 1pm at 12pm. I’ve been in plenty of nail shops especially Vietnamese ones. I am Vietnamese myself secretly and although I do not look like it and the nail artists do mainly speak in Vietnamese I assure you they never do say anything bad about the customers because I know that some people do assume.
Kathy did my nails and did an amazing job! I definitely recommend this place to everyone.
There is a huge selection of gel polishes as well. Lots of diamonds and cute bows to add on your nails.
I opted on pink gel color «flirty» with a few baby diamonds on my thumb. Also I got a matte top coat. I love it!
In total I paid $ 40 with tip. I’ll upload pictures as well.
