List Best 18 Nail Salons in Temecula, CA (Part 2)

Ailyn Garcia I really liked this place! Although it did feel a bit expensive the service was good. It’s also been more than a month and a half and none of my nails have came off! ( I did file them down tho,cause they got to long for my liking, so they don’t look as pretty as when I first got them)

Dina Morgan "I had an amazing experience at Golden Nail Salon & Spa! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive to every detail. My nail technician ( Jenny) did an outstanding job—carefully shaping, polishing, and perfecting my nails beyond my expectations. The salon was spotless, and they used high-quality products, which made the experience even better. I truly appreciate their attention to detail and the relaxing ambiance. Whether youre looking for a simple manicure or an intricate nail design, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend and cant wait for my next visit!"

Alivia Garcia Honestly, its the best nail salon Ive been to in a long time.Jenny was incredible!

Stasi Baeza Nicki did an amazing job on my nails and was very detailed. You can tell she takes pride in her work. Taylor also did a great job on my pedicure. She was very gentle and the message was wonderful, she took her time. The price was very reasonable considering all they did. Because of the awesome work and attention to detail, if you do something like I did, give yourself 2 hours to be there. You won’t regret it!

Kayla Dawn Nikki does an amazing job each time! In able to give her images and ideas and she always pulls off the look I wanted.

Ciara Keyser I have been going to A&V for about 3 years now and I cannot recommend them enough. The salon itself is nothing fancy, but the nail techs are all incredibly talented. I have had 5 different nail techs do my acrylics and I always leave happy. Annie, Vy, Lynn, Terri, Holly, Andy and the rest of the staff are talented, kind, and accommodating. I have been to many nail salons in the area and this is the best.

Emmery Slater I’ve only been to this nail spot 2x but they have done such a great job each time! I’m amazed because nails on me usually only last a week before they fall off but whatever they use lasted me a month. Definitely my new favorite spot, they are very reasonable with price.

Mary Aguilera I have gone to A&V for years now and I love the services and employees! I always received kindness and quality. No matter the design they are able to make my nails look beautiful. The employees also give me recommendations for protective care and longevity for my nails!

Steff Miller I found this salon from their good reviews and unfortunately was very disappointed. I booked an appointment for four of us to get our nails done about 3-4 weeks in advance to make sure we had ample time for the salon to get through us. Unfortunately, the salon over booked and continued letting walk inside in. This caused the staff to rush and I dont think a single one of us left without a scratch or cut. Many of us had sore fingers and chipped nails shortly after. I hate to be rude to a small business trying to make money but I wish they had slowed down and possibly turned some of the walk ins down so that those who had appointments where taken care of.

Marissa Najar I can’t wait to come back! Birthday nails on point by Teri. She was so attentive and we chatted a bunch! Also did an amazing job on my eyebrows. I came visiting from ATX and the whole experience was so lovely and relaxing. If you’re in the area I highly recommend going here!

B Raya Came across this place through Yelp. I have ingrown toe nails. Richard did an amazing job. He takes his time and does it very well. Funny too!

Bernay Marquez I’m in Temecula for the next few days and wanted to get my nails and toes done. It was that time but I’m always afraid to go to a new salon. I found some good places with good reviews and I chose Athena. I was not disappointed at all. They did a wonderful job. If they were closer to where I live I’d make this my new go-to! When I’m in Temecula next I’ll definitely be making another stop! Thank you so much for your great services!

Tristan Crump Tried this spot for the first time, had time to kill and needed a fill. Laura was wonderful and not put off by my request for a specific design. She didnt try to talk me into something else or more expensive. I work with the elderly, and loved seeing how accommodating the staff was with some of the folks coming in. You could tell they had been clients for years and that says something.

Karla Willis This salon is always kind, creative and calm. I look forward to my appointments.

Courtney Martin Friendly staff, beautiful facility, and love the location. This was my 3rd time going to Esmee Nails. Jenny does such a wonderful job on my nails, and I look forward to going there again!

Andressa Kengerski I recently had my nails and spa pedicure done by Julia, and I absolutely loved it! Julia was incredibly professional and attentive. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process, and the results were fantastic. My nails look stunning, and I couldnt be happier. I highly recommend Julia and this salon is so cute and clean. Thank you Julia, for the amazing experience!

Kerstena Brikho Best nails salon to come to in Temecula …. Amazing service ask for tanner best nail artist on earth great pricing , beautiful scenery … definitely my go to salon for my nails and pedicures ❤️

Dana Connolly Ive gone to this salon for years and so, was concerned it might negatively change when the new owners took over a few months ago. Thank goodness I was wrong! The new owners completely redid the salon making it bright, contemporary and able to accommodate more clients than before. And, rather than TVs blaring food shows or Hallmark movies, Esmee has relaxing scenescapes showing accompanied by beautiful music. Esmee is spotless and has all new massage chairs, lighting, equipment, etc. and the best part is most (if not all) of the technicians who worked there before the new owners, remained. Unlike other salons, these technicians focus on their client, dont talk/shout back and forth to one another and are are extremely professional. I highly recommend Esmee!

Brian Miller Brought my 28 year old daughter here to treat her to a gel coat manicure. Within 3 hours several of the nails had large soft bubbling. Went back the next day to get them fixed. The next day 6 of her nails were very soft and chipping. She flies back to Florida on Saturday with no time to go back for a third attempt. Very disappointed. The new salon is very beautiful but that didn’t help to get a quality gel manicure.

Declan Carson This is one of the best nail and spas I’ve been to in the Temecula area, and when I mean best I mean BEST! The whole energy and vibe here is extremely relaxing and calming. The techs here are all super friendly and helpful, they ensure your comfort and that you like what you’re getting done. I will be going back and implore anyone whose looking to have they’re nails done and have a relaxing time to go as well.

Courtney Gabrielli Great prices and great service! I got a regular manicure and pedicure with extra massage and it was amazing! Both turned out great! Also felt like prices were way more reasonable than other places! It was $60 for both including extra massage for both but they had a 20% off for first time visitors bringing it to $48! Haven’t paid that little in years!! Will definitely be back!

Gaby Urbano Absolutely thrilled with my nail appointment! The nail technician Kevin was incredibly skilled and paid attention to every detail. My nails look flawless - perfectly shaped. The color is exactly what I wanted and they took their time to make sure everything was perfect. The finish is so smooth and shiny, and they did a great job with the cuticles too. I especially appreciate how long-lasting the work is - its been several days and everything still looks as fresh as when I left the salon. This is definitely my new go-to spot for nail services. Well worth every penny! Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality nail care.

Sunny Sirois Went in with my daughter as a walk-in and they took us immediately. I didn’t get the name of our techs, but they were fantastic. The salon was clean and the work was great. We’ll definitely be back!

Mona I travel a lot and as a result end up having to try many different nail spas/salons but I’m always looking forward to being back home and returning to Bella. It’s just a relaxing, light and friendly atmosphere. I’ve never left dissatisfied- but always giddily feeling a little bit prettier. And even though I’m hardly home and don’t get to go into Bella as often as I want, they always remember me. The owner Jenny is a hoot- a kind, memorable and vivacious personality with great hospitality. This is still my favorite spot and I’d highly recommend it.

Donna Klementich Loved it here! Sabbah was so sweet, professional, and had great attention to detail. All the girls were friendly and it’s just a fun space for the girlies. Reasonable prices, and they took me same day for a fill. Will definitely be returning.

Larry They are sooooo nice and make you feel like family! Treated my 6 year old granddaughter like a queen and only charged me $15. Will def go back.

Taylor Skibinski I didn’t have an appointment, but they let me do a walk in and really took care of me. Did an amazing job on my nails and were super nice!

Leticia Hernandez Really bad nail tech! Didnt get what I asked and they would get bothered because I would tell them something! I had to go back 2 twice to get them fix and hadnt even been a week! My nails look they need to come off already like its been 2 weeks but it hasnt! My daughters nail came out to $65 and nothing what she asked for her nail came off already and it so easy to get smash on! Not even 2 weeks yet!!!! Never again coming here!!!!

Chrystina Silvia I love this place. Its the only nail salon Ill go to. Kim and Chi are my girls. They never hurt me and do a wonderful job. Highly recommend

Micaela Gaspar 10/10 the owner and staff were professional, friendly, and kind! I was def taken care of, my nails were looking so much better! Good job!

Ellis Pembroke Love getting my nails done here! They do an amazing job every time.

Erika Taylor I love this place! Ive been coming here regularly for the past 8 months, and from the moment I first walked in, I felt warmly welcomed. Her team are kind and professional and most importantly -- consistent. I was really glad to find a place around the area

Aisha Nakrani Been coming here for over a year now! I get my nails done from Linh and I have never been disappointed! Everyone there is so nice and passionate! 100% recommend!! Picture below are my real nails and got them done over three weeks ago

Caylin Mclain I love this place! I’ve left a review before, but today I had Le do my nails and he deserves a special shout-out! He is such a wonderful artist, and very communicative about the nail design details. I really appreciate how he continually asked for my input and wishes. He really just wants you to have your favorite set. Also- all of the workers are so kind and personable; they care about their clients so much and show it by remembering them and treating them as friends.

Cheryl Emery I was a walk-in and they took care of me right away. They did an amazing job, fill and pedi, and were so friendly and nice. I asked for a custom design and he nailed it. Im so glad I stopped by... this is definitely my new nail salon.

kristina behrens Ive been coming here for years so I thought I would do a proper review. Love the workers here - very friendly and I am always so happy with the service I receive. Picture Im posting is showing my gel ombre (spray painted ombre) full set acrylic nails done by Julie (book with Julie). This set came out so beautifully. I also get a french gel pedicure regularly done by Kathy (book with Kathy). She does a wonderful job and they last over a month on my feet. Highly recommend this salon but make sure you call ahead and book an appointment as they can get busy at times. I always call ahead :)

Elli Stenzel Love, love, love!! This was my first time and I had Lee, who was amazing. He knew exactly what I wanted and was able to give me my dream matte nails. I almost fell asleep with how careful he was. Will definitely be coming back to get my nails filled.

Killerpickle UPDATE!! All new staff and ownership, definitely not the same experience. This is my second trip to Forest Nails Lounge and Ive never been happier with a nail salon experience. Ive been to so many different spas in the area and none of them compare. This dip powder set was done by Jade and her work is above and beyond. I showed her what I wanted and she delivered *exactly* that, all while making the enhancements look like my natural nails. Couldnt give a more enthusiastic recommendation to anyone looking for excellent service and results!

Julie Seal-Gaustad I tried about 3-4 nail salons before I found Forest nails, and I only wish I would have found them sooner! Friendly, clean, and every single technician does amazing work. I get acrylic nails with gel overlay and pedicures, and the precision and care are like no other locally.

CC Kight They do such a great job here and I never have to wait very long at all! The owner is the kindest too and is always giving add ins on for free! I had my nails done yesterday by a new person and she was extremely thorough. I love this place!!

Celeste Holliday This place is amazing! Every technician gives the best message! Oh and who knew getting your feet knocked on felt so good! The only place I will go to for a pedicure from now on.

Keziah Cuellar This is my favorite nail salon! Natalie and Katie are my go to girls. i loved my gel manicure i’ve been coming here for over 5 years and always such great care and forever will be coming back. the attention to detail in nails i’ve done acrylic and gel. pedicures as well. great spot highly recommend

Amy Whitley NEVER GO HERE!!! **read then see image** Extremely rude and bad attitudes. First off they didn’t welcome me then did an okay job and in middle of nails asked me strictly to pay now with no reason or choice to pay at end. The next day my nail polish cracked not chipped so I went back to politely ask why and they angrily tried to convince me that my nail was chipped and they can not redo cause it’s “my nail”. She then roughly took polish off to show cracked nail to find that the nail was perfectly fine as I stated. She tried bending my nail to show a crack yet nothing was there. She said she’d refund us and stated to never come back. She furiously handed the money from the desk to us. Further as we said my nail was never cracked she smacked her head and said that’s the real nail. My nail was perfectly fine and she was speechless when she found us to be correct. Also shaped nails too close to skin and crooked. Overcharged as well and tried to make me spend more for little things unnecessary , no way. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER SO RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL TO A POLITE CUSTOMER!!! I HAVE VIDEO PROOF IF ANYONE NEEDS!

Maya Mahjabin This place used to have great nail techs but the last few times it was super Disappointing. I for tips today with a french tip and it was crooked, gel on my cuticle and really poor service overall.

Maddie Y. Sally was very nice and kind but she did not make my nails look anything like the photo reference. Although my nails looked nice in the end, the photo clearly had two French tips but I got none. It was acrylic extensions but with dip powder even though I asked for gel. They did raise good care of my nails but didn’t do anything with my cuticles. Overall okay experience with very nice technicians but did not get what I asked for.

Devon Goodbody The end result/experience was not equivalent to the menu of charges for services. My sister and I have been there twice and we left both times feeling the requested services were incomplete. Most recently, I had a gel pedicure and a no polish manicure for a total of $71. When I asked for the breakdown, there was an additional charge for polish and gel. There was also an additional charge for buffing my nails, not to mention more additional charges. The end price may have been worth the experience, if the services would have been completed and not skimped on. My cuticles (feet & hands) were not tended to. The callous portion was less that five minutes for both feet. This list also goes on. The staff was friendly, although the gentleman at the front yelled my name 3 times and I was standing up and grabbing my color, that was uncomfortable. My appointment was on time, so I have no qualms with my wait. As far as relaxing, I realized a while ago, I do not go to the large nail salons for relaxation. The chairs seem to have an aggressive massage, that is equally un-relaxing, when turning off the massage feature (4 times) it left me sitting in an erect uncomfortable manner. In general, the outcome and the experience were not worth the cost of the services. We will not be returning to Sally’s Nail Salon, regardless of the convenience of the location.

Ruth Corlee Sally is the best! I have been in Temecula for 3 years and been to basically every nail salon in town. So happy I finally found Sally!

Pamela Korstad I’ve been coming here for years and Sally consistently does a GREAT job on my nails. John is also fantastic and always makes my 87 year old mother very happy. Everyone is always very nice to me.

Emylie Esquivel I’ve been going to Classy Nails since it was under new management and I will never go anywhere else! The place is so clean and everyone is so friendly. My nails always turn out exactly how I want. Thery (who usually does my nails) is the best!! If you’re looking for a permanent place or just a quick place to go, this is the spot.

Summer Ocean Wow - one of the best acrylics sets I think I’ve ever gotten. Super great attention to detail and expert level buffering around the edges of the nail bed!! Great prices too. My set was done by the woman with shorter hair at the station closest to the front, I wish I got her name but she seemed like the one in charge :) she spoke great English too and it was so refreshing to be able to communicate fully with a nail tech!! (Btw I didn’t take a pic right away so this image is with 1 full week of grow out)

Myra Martinez I recently came back for a full set with Tracy. I understand theyre under new ownership. Seems the quality has gone down. After a week my nails looked dull. Wont be back. Tracy was an amazing nail tech when it was 999 nails.And the older lady who did my pedicure cut my nails way too short after I asked her NOT to cut them short. Annoying! 3 stars because theyre all really nice people.

Christina Moe Simmons My pedicure is so cute!! It seems theyre under new ownership and used to be 999 Nail Spa; Im not sure what it was like before but I LOVE this place. So clean and the folks working here are so, so friendly and talkative. It really felt so comfortable and welcoming. And the pedicure is gorgeous. Thank you so much! Well definitely be back ♡

Steve Hamilton New management and it shows! Amazing service! Came in for a pedicure today with appointment. I feel that the place is great and all the staff seems to be highly trained and knowledgeable and well organized. I was out in 40 minutes. I would love to come back. My feet were looking a bit rough going in to say the least, but are soft as can be after going in! pretty cool ! Highly recommended!!!!

Sofia Tisnado I came here with my mother a couple days before Mother’s Day. The lady working on my pedicure was Tiffany. I’m just here to say that my experience was not worth the money charged for the service. Tiffany was checked out since she started my pedicure..she kept getting up, left to take phone calls- she never once washed her hands. She returned with a foot scraper that looked like a cheese grader to use on my feet. ( See photos below) I had to move my foot back and tell her “oh no no , you’re not using that on my feet”. Diamond nail spa, I hope you’re reading this- do you know foot scrapers of this kind are banned in CA? And could be reported to the Board of Barbering and Cosmetology? honestly I should’ve walked out in that moment. Please work on your customer service and treatments. It’s not all about the money. Following state law and infection control standards are a must to be able to provide safety to your clients. You’ve lost business from us.

Jennifer Garcie I have been coming to this nail salon for roughly three years. The woman, who I assume owes the place/the manager, is very kind and professional. I have never had a major dislike or issue with my services... until this last week. I had gone in for a french tip gel manicure and pedicure. The pedicure was amazing but the massage chair was broken and not very relaxing. I wanted a sparkly light colored french tip.. my nails were perfectly smooth and even ( as I had got them done there a few week prior w/another lady). After my french tip was completed I noticed how bumpy and uneven the color was.. could literally see the previous color purple and the gel didnt reach the ends of my nails! I tried to be nice and decided I would just have ugly nails. Not even 4 hours later I was back in for her (Lori) to fix 4 nails of mine (no charge). The next morning I noticed the re-painted nails had all chipped again. I went straight back to the salon.. the lady upfront told me to sit down immediately, I waited for Lori to finish with a pedicure so she could fix my nails again. Once she came over to me I felt as though I had become an issue for her. Not my fault I came back 3 times because she did not do a good job. I suggested I would like all my nails to be re-painted to a traditional french tip. That seemed to annoy her and she tried to explain to me that the gel paint was coming off due to my "oily hands".. which I thought was a little rude. Said to her, "No, I have been coming here for years and this has never happened." I left with another mediocre Gel manicure. Once again, the next day my nails were cracking and chipping. I decided to not go back due to the clear lack of quality. Over the years I have seen a change in care, cleanliness and ect. Long story short, I appreciate the professionalism of the woman up front but I will not be going back.

Valerie Massa I absolutely loved them! My sister and I got gel pedicures together and it was a wonderful experience. These ladies were so sweet and welcoming. Not to mention they were very fast and the nail as came out amazing. We left knowing we’d be back!

Amy Gentile This my second time coming here and I’ll continue to come here! Came this time without an appointment and waited about 5 minutes tops and it was busy! Super quick, precise, and friendly service! They always make sure you’re satisfied before paying and ask how your experience was. And my nails look perfect! 10/10!

Ethan Joanna Pfalz Greco I am with a consumer watch group and started going to this facility and I had several people do my nails and there was only one person that I believe had done the Nails nice and I have been having my nails done at different places for all over San Diego County, and Riverside County. I was shocked when I went there and had my nails done. They used glue to hold the nail from separating apart. Then I find when I go up to check out and pay they’ve raised their prices and this is a big operation. I will not be going back there nor am I recommending anyone else go there as well. I will continue To look for other nail salons, which people can spend their hard earned money. I’m very sad about this. I did have my pedicure done once and it was very poor job. I had so much high hopes for this company, but I do not recommend it.

Riannon Canestrelli Pedicure & dip manicure were great! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. It was a relaxing experience, the pedicurist was a little rough with the cuticle picking and I bled a little, but the end result was very nice. They’re a cash only establishment though and I didn’t know until it was time to pay, so I had to withdraw some cash, it would’ve been nice to know ahead of time.

Kathleen Tessier Love love love my nails. Had a fill and a pedicure on Sunday...amazing experience...Sandy did fill and Jackie did pedicure. I brought a picture and Sandy tweeked itto make it perfect and just as I wanted it. Also, !It was the best pedicure I ever had...I moved to this area about 6 months ago and I have not found a nail place that I really liked....InStyle is my spot now!!

Gavi BDLC Tracy is who I’ve been going to for a little over a year and she never fails me. Always gives me what I ask for, super kind and patient and does an amazing job. I wish I would’ve taken pictures of all the beautiful sets she’s done on me but I’ll be posting in the future. Aiko always does my pedicure and she too is AMAZING!! Thank you Tracy & Aiko

Leanne Laforge The staff was mostly professional and friendly and they were enforcing covid precautions inside. It was a nice stylish ambiance inside but way too dark. We had to use the flashlights on our phones to see any of the color options. The prices are a bit high for the pedicures but they had a new "multi pieces set" type of options like aloe gel and other scented gelatin like substances. They had beautiful color options and a new "cat eye" polish which is 12.00 extra. There were a few things bothersome. Such as seeming like they were hurrying to finish the actual process but then there was a bit of a wait between manicure and pedicures in my group. Also it seemed like they werent listening to the wants of the client design or shape wise. The finished product of the nails my daughter got done were sloppily done and not very good looking.

Briana Friddle This salon has very friendly staff and the energy is always very welcoming! I have been going to Joseph and he is amazing at what he does! I love to let him be creative with my designs because I know he always comes up with something great! My nails last a long time and I always receive so many compliments! My mom has also been seeing Tu for quite a while and she loves how perfect and precise her nails come out! Love this salon :)

Daisy She did so good on my nails for prom. One of the best set I’ve ever gotten

fyza khan Horrible experience .. Diane there was in such a hurry that while I was telling her the design she didn’t understand and started doing without properly asking. So just got dip nails without extensions and just a little glitter on the natural tips .. and a nail polish on my toes and she charged me $100 and I tipped her too.. after just two days my nails started to chip . And my nails hurt now. Super expensive lady was in a hurry wasn’t listening and the quality was so bad ..

Full Shred. I love creative nail on Jefferson!! Diane does the best job on my nails, they look amazing and they do not lift!! That’s been a constant problem for me, but not with Diane.. highly recommend this shop!

May Rom I had my nails done today at Vivian Spa and Nails for a natural pinkish nude gel manicure with design and I couldnt be happier! The ambiance of the spa is lovely, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The staff was friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. A special shoutout to Vivian for doing such a great job on my nails! Im truly grateful for the wonderful service and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend!

Mia germano Vivianne was amazing! Very skilled and quick at what she does. I had a cut and she was so gentle and cautious. My nails came out exactly how I asked.

Shelby I was disappointed with my pedicure experience. The entire service felt rushed—I was in and out in just 25 minutes. There was no one waiting either, I was the only one there. I got a deluxe pedicure (but also wasn’t offered a service menu) and felt that a large part of getting the nicer pedicure is feeling relaxed and enjoying the massage and process. However it felt like my legs/feet were massaged for 1-2 min total. For the price, I expected a more thorough and relaxing experience. I don’t mind paying $70 for a pedicure if it is good quality, but this was not it. Also they took payment over Zelle. I don’t know if this is normal for nail salons but it felt strange to me.

Adam Myles Brought my daughter here and It was a great experience. Patrick and Vivian both did an amazing job. Will definitely come back soon. Highly recommend

The Real Rose Greven. REAL ESTATE TEAM We started with a new gel instead of acrylic because it will last longer and be better for my nails. Tracy works almost everyday and is amazing and Im excited to come back. I love to go the natural route and to try to do something healthier for the nails.

Alexis Morgan Jennifer did an amazing job! She was funny and sweet while doing my nails. It was a great experience!! So happy with my holiday set.

Ruth De Leers Julia does a wonderful job on my nails! And gives awesome pedicures! Always a great experience at every appointment!

Lilley Gharavi I love Radiance Nails! April does exceptional work! I have known her for a long time and I trust her for all my nail needs! She is truly a perfectionist and she has high attention to detail. She is very personable! The salon is very nice, clean and spacious!

Rebecca Simmons I’ve been here four times since they reopened under new management and now are open on Sundays, which is the best day for me. Pedicure has always been well done and my facial waxing was well done as well. I highly recommend this salon.
