Top Reviews about 16 Nail Salons in Antioch, CA (Part 2)

Alyana Santillana I’ve been going here for a couple years now and I’m always happy with my sets. Kimberly and Isabelle are great nail techs and always give me exactly what I want. Pedicures are very nice as well.

Effie Ashley Wish I could give this business -0 stars. I took myself and my 3 kids to this nail spa and spent $480. My nails were horrible but I kept it didn’t complain. I booked another appointment to give them another chance. I went in for my appointment today and the lady was so rude. They did a horrible job and it was a very uncomfortable experience. The person they had helping me was at first trying to rip out a dip powder instead of using acetone. I had to tell him multiple times he was hurting me. After that, I’ll never go back there and spend my money.

Daisha Monée They sent me home with sooo many bubbles on my nails and injured my finger while filing my nail. It’s still throbbing at the moment. They didn’t offer a courtesy discount for mishap they just continued buisness as usual.

Kish P I got a pedicure done from Jenny. I really liked how she treated me throughout the process. She was very calm and paid attention to details which I really appreciate. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Marivy Chicas I’ve been coming here for about 2 years to get my eyebrows threaded and always gotten so satisfied with the results at the end. And to be honest I’m very picky and very particular when it comes to having someone doing them. But she’s always done great job on mines. I highly recommend coming here if you need your eyebrows threaded.

Lisa Towles I had a great experience at Heavenly Salon for a root touch-up and highlights. My stylist, Geeta, is incredibly skilled and talented. She took the time to understand my desired look and provided expert advice. The color turned out even better than I envisioned, and the highlights perfectly framed my face. The salon environment is relaxing and right off the freeway. I highly recommend this lovely salon for anyone seeking top-notch hair services!"

Gr33n Tea i’m so upset i grow my natural nails out and thought i’d get gel i got them done on the 2nd it is now the 5th and the nails are horrible my nails where filed so thin i can’t even begin to explain how sad i am

Terry Arellano I love getting my nails done at Regal Nails, especially by Hang. The prices are very competitive, and the quality of their work is excellent. Plus, it’s super convenient—I can get a beautiful manicure and take care of my shopping at Walmart all in one trip!

cc jammy Worst experience Ive ever had at any shop. I wouldnt wish this place on my worst enemy. The nail tech yelled at me when I asked her to correct a mistake that she made on my nails. The design was so awful I asked her to paint it one color. She started to yell at me, I asked her calmly why was she yelling at me. She kept yelling, I asked the other nail texting the shop could we switch Id be willing to wait for another nail tech. I was ignored until one of the customers told her nail tech that I was speaking to her she then brushed me off and told me she didnt have time today although there was a few people in the shop.

Chelsea Barnes 0 STAR The WORST EXPERIENCE EVER…. I dont even know what to do except warn anyone who decides to go here… I went for a pedicure and left with a chuck of toe and nail missing.., I told the guy 3 …! THREE times do not touch this nail..: (it is special …meaning it’s difficult to cut and only I can) I’m 35 and have thousands of pedicures with no issues with people not understanding do not cut this. I got in my car and just cried and cried….and even when I got home just cried because it hurts so bad. HORRIBLE. And he kept and extra $10 giving back my change…. I was just so upset and wanted to leave i didnt even argue

S. G.M. By far the worst pedi Ive ever received. Hard to even call it a "pedi" as there was NO massage or filing of my nails. You read that correctly, NO MASSAGE. My feet were actually not touched. A total waste of time and money. I recommend going to Ems around the corner... which is what I shouldve done. I didnt want to cause a scene so I just paid, but I was pretty much robbed of my money.

Andrew Allen My wife and I have been loyal customers of Classy Nails in Brentwood, California, for several months, visiting regularly for our monthly pedicures. We initially chose this salon because it stands out as a bit nicer compared to other local nail salons. The furniture is newer, and thankfully, the salon doesn’t have the strong fumes often associated with nail salons. Over time, we discovered that the quality of the practitioners varies. Some are quite skilled, while others are not as proficient. To ensure a consistently good experience, we requested the names of the practitioners we preferred and began to specifically request them for our appointments. Unfortunately, during our most recent visit, two incidents significantly marred our experience. Firstly, the staff tried to switch me to a practitioner I specifically did not want, right in front of her. This was embarrassing and uncomfortable. I had to firmly insist on keeping my original request. This particular practitioner has a habit of digging her thumbnails into the soles of my feet and gives an overall poor foot and leg massage. Additionally, her inability to communicate in English is frustrating, making it difficult to express my preferences and concerns. Secondly, we were subjected to high-pressure tactics to upgrade to a more expensive package than the one we usually get. This aggressive upselling, especially given our history of regular visits and generous tipping, was quite off-putting. Given these unpleasant experiences, we have decided not to return to Classy Nails. While the salon has its merits in terms of ambiance, the issues with service and pressure tactics have overshadowed the positives for us.

Susanne Strom Took my 3 yr old granddaughter to get her first manicure and they were so awesome with her. She loved being pampered and the flower and little jewel on her nail.

Mel This was the worst experience ever, almost everything was dirty. Didnt provide the services they promised, didnt have much of a color selection. The man doing my nails couldnt make them straight after an hour of shaping them. My finger was burned and there was glue all over my hands and nail paint. on top of it was too expensive for a bad job. My daughter also got a French tip and the lines were way off and the wrong color.

Patty Rogers Terrible! I went in to this salon for a pedicure and dip manicure. I have no complaints about the pedicure, it was fine but nothing special. Jason did my dip nails and he did a horrible job. Days after I had them done, my nails started lifting around the edges and my hair would get caught in them. Within two weeks I was able to pop them off like press on nails. Generally you can never get dip off without going into a salon. No lie, these popped off like press on nails, all ten of them. Would never go back there ever!

Kaeya M I’m absolutely in love with my nails! The intricate details and festive feel are beyond perfect. The red and white color combination, with those adorable candy cane swirls and unique accent nails, makes my hands feel like a work of art. The 3D embellishments add such an elegant touch, making these nails both fun and classy. Not only are they beautifully designed, but they also feel super durable. I’ve received so many compliments already. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for creative, high-quality nail art!”

Jhosseline Lopez I have been getting full sets and pedicures with Angels Nails in Brentwood for years now. They always do beyond exceptional work. My nail and pedicure tech today get 10/10 Nancy for pedicure and Kayla for full set. Very friendly and comfortable environment ! They are all great!

Stacy Watkins Angel nails is awesome. Their prices are competitive with other shops in the area and they do a great jobs. Kayla does my nails and Helen does my pedis and is the BEST.

angela hayes Leon always does a great job with my nails. I get so many compliments on my nails with every new look! He is professional, clean, and so very talented. You will love his work.

Meghan Toner Leon is the greatest of all time. I’ve been seeing him for years following him from shop to shop because I’ve never been disappointed with my Nails. He’s quick and efficient while making your nails look fabulous. Also I am a bartender and very hard on my nails and they last! So proud of him for venturing out on his own! Bottom line go to him! You will not be disappointed.

Marcela I have been coming with Leon since I move to Antioch back in 2020. I just super recommend him. He is such a great professional and a nice person. Very perfectionist and amazing on what he does. My nails NEVER looked bad with him. They look amazing and believe it he leave that natural looking nails. Thank you Leon for your amazing art. Oh one last thing whatever you want he does it, and looks just the same as you showed in the picture.

Amy Gray I recently had acrylic nails done for $85 (before til), but unfortunately, they lasted less than a week. While I appreciate the effort put into trying different designs, I felt that the overall skill was average. I believe clearer communication could have improved the experience, as it seemed we were going back and forth on the design choices. I wanted to express my preferences, but it felt like my input was overlooked in favor of the stylists vision. In the end, I didn’t leave with the look I wanted, and it felt like I paid more than I should have.

Stephanie Carrillo Took my three cousins to get their nails done. I paid for two of them. I was charged $98 for child’s regular manicure and gel french tip manicure plus a $10 tip. I did not want to give them a tip but I felt pressured to leave them a tip. I don’t know why I was charged so much. The service is good but prices are outrages.

Kristie Drawe Really great reviews brought me here. Quality: average. You can look at the pics below. Layers not so even. Price: $28 for basic gel manicure. $38 gel manicure with soaking and massage. I guess thats California pricing. Service: friendly Cleanliness: seemed ok. I wasnt asked to wash my hands before and that was strange. Parking: plenty. Park next to the market.

Ijanae “Nae” Love comin here! No one has been able to execute my nails the way *Tu* ( sorry if I misspelled) does! If I come in w a inspo she COPY & PASTE everytime. When she free styles she still applies the pressure. She’s the only one I’ll let touch my nails. They last longer than 2 weeks when I need em too. You get what you pay for and this shop is definitely worth every penny ! Great service w great conversation! Everyone is so friendly!

Crystal Nawabi I came here for the first time and I regret it so much my goodness I’ve never had a pedicure with gel falling off so quick or chip is more the word too it . First off I always get gel the water was cold I had to tell the lady it’s cold so knowing I had gel already she does the minimum using the drill then adds a nail polish which I’m assuming is for gel to come off , well it didn’t work so she was having a hard time with my old gel she was using a Cuticle Trimmer to remove my gel ??? I’ve never seen anyone do this. So I tell her to use the drill she tells me “people don’t like that” I said well everyone does it and it’s better so she does catching my skin multiple times. The reason for the bad review is because I like to let people know how Really businesses are And this one was the most disappointing due to the gel chipping off the second day did I go back? No, I did not. So whatever they’re using is very cheap and I would say it’s not worth what you pay for . it’s very obvious the person doing the pedicure with the glasses was not licensed.

Christina Tague I live very close to this nail salon, and I was having a very bad day and wanted to treat myself. I dropped by on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, and they were able to take me right away for a manicure in full set. On top of that, the shops owner is very kind, sweet, and personable. It’s clear she cares about her business, but her clients as well. She takes great pride in her work, and takes her job seriously. And the cherry on top of it all is that they do excellent work here! I highly recommend this place, I’ve only been here once but it feels like I’ve known them for years. If you’re looking for a quality salon, with quality people, this is your place! I have attached a photo of my nails, almost 3 weeks after I got them done. They have lasted great, no problems whatsoever, and I still get complimented on them every day!

Suleyka White Took my neices to get their nails done. Staff was friendly, quick and did exactly what my girls wanted. They were so happy with their new set of nails. Thank you!!!

Agustina Devetac Unfortunately, very disappointing. I got a gel and is not made well. This is going to come off in the next couple days. Also some missing spots.

Lindsay Ryan Amazing staff and pricing! I have tried a lot of salons in the area for pedicures and this has been the best! Great selection of nail polish colors and services. I was able to call ahead and make an appointment and they were ready when we arrived. I will definitely go back.

JULIET BAYLOR Ladybug is a no-go place for me. I can’t imagine that I came to remove my acrylic powder wrapped over my natural nails for $20. I anted to pay wt card and they are asking for extra. Like y do u have bill extra for a choice you made? Ask all your customers to bring cash and stop the rip off!

Jemellee Manaoat Been here a few times but first time rating it. Sandy was very good with the pedicure! Loved my foot massage and she also is very friendly. I love how my gel nail polish came out and loved the color. She really took her time and she fixed my finger nail with no charge. If it were other spas they would have charged at least $5. I’m very happy with my pedicure. I’d come back again.

Maria Quintero I was there today , para hacerme mi manicura. These people work all rude and beat up. With the desire to finish quickly to serve another client. For them, quantity is what counts not quality. And without waiting for a tip???? The work they did to me today was of very quality and my nails were left with a rather bad finish. Im not happy about that. In effect this is my last time I visit this business. Its throwing your money away.

Lizz Hollis You can tell that you’re going to have a great service from the time you walk in. The shop is clean, smells pleasant and Ashley is friendly, accommodating and professional. Everything is sterile and sanitized which I love. My daughter and I both received pedis and I also get acrylic full set with designs. 5 stars all around ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Jessica Tfc I LOVE my nails. I got an overly and gel pedicure. My nails come out very natural and beautiful. She uses better products than other nail shops, so my nails last a long time .

ashante wallace A very messy place to get your nails done , the nail tech is very mouthy! Also when she bends over to do your pedi she reeks of a fishy Odor that is as loud as her mouth

Candy Wham Wonderful salon! Great group of stylists.

Karen Fuller Rhonda has been our hairdresser for years. She is good with all types of hair. And she is a wonderful person.

Marcella Moser Love this place!!! Rhonda Bowers is wonderful!!!

Juju Juflo “Juflo” This is my first and last time here. What Tina did to my nails was nothing like what I asked for. Unless someone else does my nails, I will not return. I paid $85 for that; what matters to her is money.

Charlise N Vincent did an AMAZING job on my nails! I showed him an inspiration pic from iG and he did exactly that. I am very pleased with the outcome & will certainly come back to him. I love the shape of my nails & the design, he asked questions along the way to ensure I was satisfied, and also held a conversation with me while he worked. 10/10 highly recommend!! Additionally, I got strip lash extensions for the first time & they ITCH like crazy. Will be taking these off soon as I get home. Possibly I’m allergic to the glue or lash itself or the fact the woman that did them didn’t wash her hands or clean anything. Idk but they will be coming off!

Ryan Willis I had the pleasure of being serviced by Chi Chi today. She did an amazing French full set for me. I would definitely return in the near future and she’s the only one who will be doing my nails from now on. Highly Recommend!
