Brian Curtis Great shopping center. Lots of business here.
5 /5
Chris Vinsick Very sheik, Modern future kinda the Jetsons sorta look. Pleasant customer service is the same as most places. Sometimes it is good and sometimes not so good. Food was good but pricey even for the economical disaster the current administration thinks we deserve. Good place for kids and something that needs to be in a planned budget like most working class Americans. Unlike the majority of California residents who are non citizens and have thousands of dollars to throw around that we pay for! Goooooo Biden!!!!!

Stacy Mc Im so glad I discovered Polished! I have Peripheral Neuropathy so my feet are extremely sensitive. I was able to articulate all of my sensitivities to Michaela, who took great care and my feet look amazing for the first time in a long time ! Im going to be going back every month.
5 /5
Robin Laverty-Reves Polished provides a peaceful haven for pedicures and other services. Michaela is the sole owner and service provider for one on one appointments which provide a sense of calm relaxation. She uses non toxic products resulting in an experience without sensory assault. After my first appointment, I decided to return each month.
5 /5
S Green I recently returned to Polished after moving back to the area. I had been using chain waxing “salons” and was very underwhelmed. Michaela is very attentive, detail oriented, cares about her clients, and… her prices are incredibly reasonable (less than chain waxing in my experience). I am so happy to be back and highly recommend Polished for nails and waxing needs, she is great!

(50) Reviews Wolf Mountain Day Spa:

Lori Thomas The TLDR: It was not the worse experience imaginable however to pay $110 for an hour massage and not feel like I actually received a service from a licensed practitioner really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The lack of communication about the sauna - or the weirdness in asking about it, was also not great. To also have my feedback ignored makes it even worse. More info: I got a massage for the first time from Wolf Mountain a week ago. I saw that it got good reviews so was excited to try it out. Although the atmosphere was nice and the facilities were clean, I received a very lack luster massage and ran into some communication issues. I reached out via email to talk to someone about my experience but disappointedly never heard back. My massage therapist was extremely nice and friendly however, even though I asked for more pressure during the massage it was still very light pressure. This was one of the lower pressure massages Ive ever received. Additionally, she also put my arms into a few compromising positions twice (each side, feeling like my shoulder blades were going to be pulled out of place), which Ive never experienced and anyone who knows anatomy (I would think a licensed therapist) would know not to do. My cousin also got a massage at the same time and her masseuse gave more appropriate (firmer) pressure AND put hot towels on her feet and a mask over her eyes for facing up. I received neither of those little touches that help create a relaxing and enjoyable massage experience. Part of the reason I booked at Wolf Mountain is because they had a sauna to use for 30 min in addition to your massage. When I booked the appointment the person on the phone let me know that they were having issues with the sauna and that it might not be working the day wed be in. Totally fine. Fast forward to our massages and arrived at the spa, we were told once again that the sauna was not working. Again, fine. As we were checking out, the person at the front desk was on a call booking a sauna appointment for the next day. Once they got off the phone I told her we were told twice that the sauna wasnt working and she just shrugged.

Ramona Taylor Chelsea was amazing! I had a sound healing massage with her that literally was one of the best massages Ive ever had. And Ive had quite a few! Go in with an open mind and heart and come out with a brand new set of wings. She released so much, not just muscle tension. Thank you!!

Teresa Wagner Had great service with Holly. She is very good at what she does with a great eye for detail. I recommend her for waxing.

Sarah Kope Not happy with this place just took both my daughters spent 160 dollars on nails after 2 and half hours i cant believe they charged me full price n not even that they charged me more then quoted and all 3 sets have issues. I ladys we had cut our fingers, I asked to have my nails removed but instead just painted over the pink and whites I asked for. My nails feel like they have moguls on them, there all bumpy and extremely big, they make my hands look old. Both my daughters nails look like they already need a fill.Asked to have them fixed, was told they were fine. Ill never go here again.

Avery Markward Very nice lady, but not professional at all and used scissors to cut my nails and cut my skin . My nails also turned out spotty and very crooked after telling the lady that they were uneven.

Jessamine Bailey Went here for a pedicure and had a great experience! The lady who gave me the pedi was very thorough. It was supposed to only be 55 mins but she spent 1.5 hours in total. I will definitely be going back

J Lee Linda was able to squeeze me in last minute when a client had to cancel. She was warm and friendly and her attention to detail was evident. She is sure to properly sanitize all tools and made me feel very comfortable. It was enjoyable and my nails came out great!
5 /5
Brittney Still My son got his ears pierced today at the Artistic Nail Salon. This is the only place that I know of that does ear piercing besides tattoo shops who charge a lot more. My 6 year old daughter had gotten hers done at the Artistic Salon earlier in the year and we were really happy with her experience. We called to see if we could get a same day appt for my 10 year old son today and the owner was able to accommodate. After setting up the appointment, she had the unfortunate luck of losing her office key. Instead of cancelling on us, she went out of her way to get another person in the building evolved that could assist her in opening up the door she needed. We ended up keeping the appointment and got the job done. She was very thorough with sanitation and making sure the piercings were perfectly centered. Thank you for your service, Linda.
5 /5
K H Linda gave me an outstanding pedicure right before I got onto the Pacific Crest Trail. I needed some painful calluses taken care of and got that a whole lot more. Her expertise and attention was unparalleled. Thank you so much Linda! I had a great hike and no issues!

valeriehummingbird T is wonderful she is not only kind and compassionate but does an excellent job on my nails I always have a pedicure and a manicure. And I am very satisfied with the results. I really like coming to t because of all those reasons but it’s also it’s just her and you in the salon so it’s very intimate atmosphere. It’s not like you’re in a room full of strangers and they use toxic chemicals. Here it’s completely safe and there’s no awful smells. Just the sweetness of her smile and my toes and nails are very happy
5 /5
Janelle Ernst I have always loved going here. This is my first experience with an older man that works there. He gave me a pedicure and after only rubbing and scrubbing my feet for 20 seconds each side. I mentioned that the girls normally do that a bit longer and that was really short. He stood up and left. Another woman finished and just look at the finish. Worst and most embarrassing nails to wear

Kim oxarart Nancy is amazing! I will only go to her...until now...we are moving and want to take her with us!! She is friendly, attentive and caring. I love my French Dips!! She also does my eye brows with precision. Never do I have to wait for my appointment. Annie, the owner, is pretty amazing too!!
5 /5
Emily Andersen I’ll start off by saying my pedicure was absolutely lovely from beginning to end. The staff is also very sweet. Unfortunately my manicure could have been much better. My fingers were stained from the powder dip and gel polish making the manicure look messy and unprofessional. I’ve been trying to scrub it off but it’s been difficult. I’m bummed because no one should have to do this after going to a nail salon.

Deborah Bohman After a NIGHTMARE experience at another local nail salon, I decided to give Bless Nails a try! The lady who did my nails today was awesome! She fixed the mess, reshaped them beautifully into a Coffin shape and went above and beyond to make them look right and good! This will officially be the place I will go in the future for my nails!
5 /5
Elena King I went here to get my nails done with my family. The atmosphere was serene. However, the man doing my manicure seemed extremely under qualified. He would stop for minutes at a time to look at his phone and prop it up as if he were watching a YouTube video? It was strange…anyway after the vigorous filing of my skin and not doing any cuticle care, he starts doing the $45 gel set. So, now my nail beds are in pain and so are my cuticles, there’s a ding in one of my nails and nail glue all over my hands. I was very disappointed in the price. I would recommend this place for Pedis, Manis are a waste of money here.

Kelsey Kazarian Pampered is the best salon to go to in the Nevada City/Grass Valley area. I’ve tried quite a few and truly nothing compares. Kayla & Kelly are both exceptional with nail art, and have all the latest nail trends/colors/chromes. I go to Kayla for acrylic & Kelly for pedicures, though Kelly does a great acrylic as well. Kelly’s pedicures are the ABSOLUTE best ever. The staff is super kind & accommodating, and everyone is always super friendly. It’s a great vibe. Bring a picture if you have one for nail art and you will not be disappointed. These have been my favorite sets.

Aliciana Swinney I just went here to get my nails done before my baby comes! They did my hands and feet at the same time which was really nice for me time wise. Both hands and feet look great! I asked for a tip with dip powder for natural looking nails and Kayla did a great job! They don’t look bulky or fake- very happy!!

cam m 24 hours after I had a standard polish manicure ( no gels). I have never had polish come off like this so fast . I only wanted it to last 4 days so opted for regular polish. Not sure what went wrong. If I had time before my event I would go back and ask them to fix it -

Nicole Gowey Ive been going here for years with my kids and its always been an ok experience. Some of the ladies are nice and do a great job but its hit and miss. They are always pretty hard and ruff and tend to cause a few cuts and bleeding with manicures and full sets but get upset when I wince and thought that was just "normal" since Ive never really gone anywhere else. However, the last time we went and got pedicures my toe and my sons toe were both a little sore and red the next day when there was nothing wrong before. Its been almost two weeks and now we have full blown infections. I thought mine was getting better after a few Epsom salt soaks, but no! Posting pics of day after, 9 days after and 13 days after for me and 13 days after for my 11 year old son. Time for a Dr.!

Rachel McCullough These ladies are amazing! Theyre friendly and do an incredible job doing nails. The deluxe pedicure is the best Ive ever had, which includes a hot stone massage, sugar scrub and additional leg massage. My nails always look amazing and their artwork is always perfect. Thank you for being my favorite nail salon and taking such good care of my friends and family when I send them in to see you.

Joni Sternberg I asked for my gel to be taken off and regular polish and manicure. I kept asking my manicurist can clean up my nails and dry skin and she just couldn’t seem to do it properly. I eventually said not to worry about finishing…my nails actually look worse now than when I came in with my chipped gel…bummer. They still asked for $25 after literally just taking off my gel( and not very well) and rubbing some bad cream into my hand. I guess it’s time to find a new salon!

Kendra I have to say thank you so much to Wendy for fixing my nails after an unfortunate experience at another salon the day before. I honestly cannot believe how amazing they look considering the state of my acrylics and cuticles when I came in. I’ve had other wonderful experiences with Wendy and will only be going to Allure from now on. I’ve had pedicures done as well and highly recommend!
