Efigenia Dominguez I dont like to share my favorites for selfish reasons but Ziva Nail Salon is absolutely one of the best true powder dip shops in the city. They know how to remove the powder easily without injuring my nails, and have ample colors selection. The salon is neat and tidy and the girls perform AMAZING shoulder and feet massage.

Nicole Violet I went in there with a picture and I came out with dirty misshaven nails. I will never go there again. I had to pay $50 and go to lux nail salon to have them fixed and now they look like the picture. Dont waste your time or money, theyre rude, they price gouge and it was just a horrible waste of time!

Josephine Foucher I really enjoy this salon. I live close by and come regularly for pedicure and have always been happy with the results. They have massage chairs, the staff is nice and they do a good job (I love that they use real oranges with the hydrating cream on the legs), and I think the prices are very reasonable. Sometimes a little wait when busy but thankfully there is a coffee shop nearby, and usually you can just walk in, and its great.

Lisa Houdei Immediately after walking into this nail salon, I was greeted so warmly by the lovely women that work here. I looked to my left to find the mother of the owner of the salon hugging an 88 year old customer who walked 30 minutes just to get her nails done by her. My nails were carefully and beautifully done and I’ve never had a better experience. They also squeezed us in last minute, so that was very much appreciated. Unique, special, and a warm environment. Thank you!

Kristi Worst! Look at he state they left fingers in after the dip had another color mixed in, making it not the pink I asked for. Truly the worst

Laura Forte Beautiful nail salon and nice regular manicure. However, I also got my gel polish removed here and she only used the nail drill, no soak, and wasn’t very careful because she removed a significant amount of my nail in the process. Now they’re very weak and hurt. I’ve had to cut them very short to prevent them from bending.

Every single detail is thought through, from changing towels in between the wet and dry parts of the pedicure, to providing complimentary beverages, to maintaining sanitation between clients. The owner personally works with clients, which adds a personal touch to the experience.

Noelle Mabutas I’ve been coming to this place for years (since they opened the salon). The quality of service has drastically changed. My nails used to last me weeks without chipping. However, the past few times I have gone, they have chipped super quickly.. I noticed this time they cut my cuticles after dip/painting my nails which left an indent from my cuticle line to where they painted. The dip/paint lasted me three days, you can tell from the photo that the dip/paint was beginning to lift where the cuticle line meets the dip, which super unfortunate. Mind you, I do not use harsh chemicals on or near my hands that would cause this. Considering the amount of money I’ve spent here over the years to present I would hope that they would put better quality out there. I hate to be the person to write a review but after being a long time customer and the experience I continue to encounter enough is enough. (The first photo was taken three days after getting them done. The second is a week later)

Robin Kincade I love this Shoppe. I’m a difficult client because I don’t always like to go get my nails done but every time I come here that only do they do a great job. They are so nice! I highly recommend this business. They do a fantastic job on my nails

Heather S I have now been here 3x and can’t say enough good things about the place. I have had different technicians each time and they were all good. Tina, is my favorite so far. The care she took with my nails was lovely. My daughter got her nails done by Linh and they’re fabulous! She does a great job with designs.

Magdalyn Kerslake Im giving a 2-star rating instead of a 1 because, being a hair stylist myself, I recognize that its challenging to satisfy every client. However, the service I received for $140 was unsatisfactory. After seeing how well they seem to do 3D chrome nails on Instagram, I was so excited to give this salon a try. I showed them the inspo photo and made it clear that understand that it wouldn’t look exactly like the inspo photo however, they assured me they could deliver. Unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired as I felt rushed and received nails that bore no resemblance to the inspo photo, yet alone any decent looking nails I’ve ever seen. Despite requesting adjustments, after 2.5 hours, they appeared even worse – clumpy, thick and messy. Given the price I paid, I had expected a higher level of professionalism. Furthermore, as a cosmetologist, I was appalled by the salons lack of sanitation, evident in their use of dirty instruments and using single use instruments on multiple different clients. I’ll include the nails before and after the adjustment, and the inspo photo.
2 /5
Jasmine Chen Unusual technique. My technician (Sky) insisted on doing cuticles AFTER applying acrylics when I asked for it before application. It’s only been one day and the lunula is already exposed. For $85 I would prefer a manicure that lasted longer.

My first time getting cat eye nails with hard gel! It came out really well. Love how smooth and shimmery it is, I got so many compliments. Prices are reasonable, the staff is super nice, service was fast. Next time will try out other services. Highly recommend.

They took the time to do an amazing job for my nails. It was my first time trying gel and they have so many colors organized by color. This time I tried just manicure but I’ll come back for more. Loved this place + the staff + the owner which are really friendly.

Sarah Lynn Marion 10/10 would recommend to anyone! I got a full set of Gel X (with a soak off of a previous set) for $85 + tip. I’m not local to the area otherwise I would be a regular customer. I came on a Monday morning and they were not busy at all. The salon was clean and spacious, and had a generally pleasant atmosphere. My nails were in pretty rough shape when I came in from a previous full set I had gotten elsewhere. Britney took her time and was extra careful with my nails because she could see how damaged they were. I get Gel X nails regularly, every 4 weeks or so, and you can tell when someone is good vs. bad at doing this type of nail extension. She was very good at the application. She had exactly the shape and length I wanted which is always a good sign. (Often times salons will only carry one size and length of gel x tips, and then they’ll make them they shape you want but they’re not always uniform). I’m very happy with my nails. I have to have them done a specific way for work, and they’re perfect.

Amaiya S Horrible. I came here yesterday 10/30/24 to get a simple gel manicure. The nail artist suggested that I try getting a hard gel manicure instead and I agreed. I don’t understand why someone would suggest for me to do hard gel instead of the regular gel manicure that I wanted when they have no idea how to do it. Every single one of my nails is lumpy and crooked. There are awful amounts of crusted product left underneath my nails. She also cut and caused me to bleed several times. They did a horrible job and did not offer a refund or even a discount. I have never in my life gotten “professional nails” that looks so terrible. When I brought it to their attention About how crooked and terrible my nails look, I was told that “different people do them differently” instead of them offering to redo them or give a discount for these horrible nails. I feel scammed and upset. Do not come here.

Yamilette Carrion SAMMIE IS AMAZING!!! I love my nails to death. I showed her a picture of the gradient and I added the dots and she gave me exactly what I wanted. I got a fill in and a nice guy took his time shaping my nails to perfection & then Sammie slayed my nail art. She took her time on each nail. And she’s fab! I have been to over 10 salons in SF and they all disappointed me because they could never do what I asked - Mani Pedi is my new favorite and go-to spot!

Shayla Benoit Wow! The best experience I’ve ever had at a nail salon. Lucy did an amazing job cleaning up my cuticles. When she didn’t know how to do the ombré, Sammy was able to get it done while also showing Lucy how to do it. They really went above and beyond and spent their time making sure it was perfect. Also, at some point Lucy gave me a shoulder and arm massage! I am blown away with the service and treatment that I received. Thank you guys so much for such as amazing experience. 10/10 recommend to everyone, not even expensive and I feel as if I got more than I paid for. ♥️

She has a great attention to detail and does an amazing job of matching the base to my skin tone. She’s always so patient with helping me decide on what direction to go with for colors and style choices and I’m always thrilled with the end results.

Aaliyah Barker The place is super cute and very clean. My only complaint regarding cleanliness was when she started doing my actual manicure. She didn’t soften my cuticles and rushed my manicure, and she ended up cutting 3 of my fingers. I get my nails done every 2-3 weeks and have never once had someone cut my finger enough to make it bleed, let alone 3 of them. They spent two hours on my gel manicure, so of course I still paid; but it was hard for me to put $65 down for that. I likely won’t be coming back. I wanted to give this place a try since I just moved in right next door, but my first experience wasn’t great. They were not the most patient or friendly. It could have just been an off day for them, which is why I’m giving 3 stars instead of 1. It was busy and based on the pictures, I’m sure this was just a fluke. Lastly, I asked for an almond shape, and the technician made some of them almond and some of them round. Shape wise, they look really bad. Which was surprising, because a lot of reviews looks great! Maybe I got a newer technician or she was just rushing. I can’t tell if I’m being too picky or not, but I ended up fixing them myself with a nail file and they look better. Usually I would have them fix it on the spot, but after being there for 2 hours, I was already late for my next thing. I have also never had a manicure take so long. I attached photos of my nails close up to show the cuts and poor manicure, but this was after fixing the shape myself.

A89sw I went to city famous today to get my nails done for my bachelorette party, having read positive reviews about their services. I requested ombré dip powder nails with extensions (which is a menu option they offer) and showed her a picture of my previous ombré nails that I loved. The nail technician, Quinn, strongly recommended gel x instead, claiming it would give my nails a more natural look. However, the nails that were ultimately applied didn’t resemble ombré and were not white at the top like I had asked for. When I pointed this out, she said that she couldn’t do ombré with gel x (then why recommend it?) and then proceeded to try and fix the mistake by adding dip powder on top, which was mostly ineffective. Despite my disappointment and the fact that the nails didn’t meet my expectations, Quinn just checked me out quickly and charged me full price. She had also started my appointment 20 minutes late because someone last minute requested to add eyebrows, and she was rushing before I asked her to slow down. The service was disappointing, considering the price, and I’m disappointed with the condition of my nails for a significant life milestone.

Megan Stoner I was so excited to find a salon in the Marina that does hard gels, but this place is not it. I left with three papercut-like cuts on my hands and nails that look like I painted them myself. I overheard the other woman getting her nails done complain to her gal that her nails weren’t what she expected so I don’t think this is an isolated experience with the woman who did my service. Really don’t think it’s worth your money. So sad because I wanted to love this place! Photos show them immediately after and also after trying to scrape off the extra paint in the shower

Celine Guadamuz-Cruz Nail artist was late to the appointment which wouldn’t have been a problem if she hadn’t been so passive aggressive. I brought my own nail polish as I just wanted a simple nude nail but when she arrived she was trying to persuade me to do something else. However, everything I was interested in she said I was “too dark” for. I decided on a simple design from their instagram to which she said was “too expensive” despite my willingness to pay which I thought was rude. To avoid not liking a last minute design I decided to do my original simple nude nails to which she said looked “too old”. She then attempted to persuade me to do a design to which I declined. At the end of the service she called me difficult for not going with her suggestions. Never going back.

Laura Abangan I am deeply disappointed with the service I received at Olivias Nail Spa today. Typically, I have had excellent experiences here, with staff who genuinely care for their customers, providing thorough and meticulous care for both manicures and pedicures. However, todays experience was drastically different. The group of ladies working today did not offer the same level of service that I have come to expect. My pedicure felt rushed, and my concerns about the quality of the work were ignored. The nail polish was applied sloppily, showing a clear lack of care. To make matters worse, at the end of the service, the technician demanded a tip, questioning how I would tip if I were paying by card. Out of politeness, I tipped $5 on my card, but this felt inappropriate given the poor service. Moreover, the cost of the pedicure was unexpectedly high. What normally costs $25 ended up being $42, including charges for sandals that are usually complimentary when the owner is present. I was charged an additional $2 for these. I have always wanted to support local businesses, but this experience was a waste of my money and left me deeply disappointed. I hope this review will be taken into consideration and prompt changes at Olivias Nail Spa. Unfortunately, I will be seeking nail services elsewhere from now on. ---

The pedicures were pricey - around $40 - but I guess thats the going rate in the city? They also offered snacks and drinks to people. My aesthetician wasnt too chatty, but she was quick and efficient and gave a great leg massage. They also have decent massage chars. Its definitely worth coming to the Bayview for!

I gave Tracy some photos and she was able to make my fingers look even better than the photos! They were also meticulous about cleaning and trimming every micron of my cuticles, and yet somehow there was no redness or bleeding! I did nail tips, but she made them look incredibly natural and smooth—and she gave me tips for how to gradually grow out my nails so someday I won’t need tips. The pedicure was also great! I almost hesitate to leave a review as I want to keep this place to myself. But I can’t be selfish! Thank you!

Alice Huang Tracy gave me the best dip + gel manicure I’ve ever had — she had so much attention to detail and even placed individual big glitter pieces on my nails to make them shine more. The price was also more affordable than most other places I’ve been to, especially for the quality. 10/10!!

Essie Helene Tracy and team are the best! They get very busy and you may need to wait depending on your service but they’re so kind and professional I never mind.

Emily Chen Update: the owner apologized to me, offered a complimentary gel manicure, and shared that the lady who scarred my face got fired. I’m glad she tried to make things right and I will continue to go here for my nails. I’ve been going here for years and the nails have generally been high quality with a wide selection of colors. However, I was disappointed with how the staff handled things when they messed up. I usually get my eyebrows done by the owner (Tracy). Another lady did mine and took a huge chunk off my skin - leaving a permanent big scar above my eye that I’ve had for months. When I told the owner about the damage the day after, she suggested I must’ve made the scar myself. This felt offensive given I had photo proof from an hour after the waxing and am a long-time customer who tips well. She reluctantly gave me a refund ($14) - but this doesn’t even begin to cover the damage from a permanent big scar on my face. I hope they retrain the lady who did this to me - especially since she had messed up my eyebrows once before already. I was very surprised how they treated me given I was a good long time customer. The staff are generally nice, but may not be when it matters.

Ally Subrahmanyam Just got my first manicure and pedicure here and I am SO impressed!! Searched for a place in my neighborhood and found this one and now I feel like I have my place. Service was so welcoming and professional and the ambiance is really nice. My manicure was done by Tiffany and may be the best I have ever received!!! And my pedicure looks amazing too. Thank you!!

Nikki Clancy Ive been a loyal customer of SF Nails for the past three years, and I couldnt be happier with the service. The salon offers exceptional manicures and pedicures, including gel manicures and regular pedicures, all of which Ive experienced. Each technician is professional, attentive and helpful in selecting the perfect nail polish color. They are gracious and accommodating, even when I arrive with nails that are beat up. SF Nails is my go-to place for self-care. The salon is impeccably clean, creating a relaxing and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend SF Nails for anyone looking for top-notch nail services.
