Nail Salons 15 Reviews in Temecula, CA (Part 3)

Marissa Adou Wish I could give Zero Stars. Took my kids there for gel nails on Valentine’s Day. They didn’t even last 3 days before they were chipping off. Day 4 one of the nails peels off. As we sat there getting the nails done another family came in to get girls nails done. The technician pushing gel nails saying they last longer than regular polish. What hoax! Never going back to this salon. $90 for nails to only last 3 days!

Mortal Being I always go to Gary, usually I do neutrals as he is fabulous at any French tip nail design but I decide to go a little crazy. He paid attention to the details and did not rush. This was a fill. I highly recommend…I have not ONCE had a nail pop off.

pegah hazrati This is my 110 dollars fill in ( I did pedicure as well). I got my nails done Saturday and the gel start pilling off on Saturday night. They were off on Sunday for their new year and now at 3 am on Monday morning, I am sitting and thinking how to go to work with my nails looking like this. They were rushing to finish their work fast and push all customers out. I had previous appointment so I am confused why they did not spend the time required to have my nails fully dry this is by far one of the Worst nail experience I ever had. Now I am going to miss work tomorrow try to find another place to fix this mess. Not reliable. I would never ever go back! Do not let them touch your nails.

lorna burgess Came here with my mother and sisters. Before my sisters wedding. The lady doing my pedicure did a great job. However Minh did my nails and did an awful job. I wanted a full set with regular polish. He left excess acrylic under my nails. Which gets caught on everything. The top coat he used left air bubbles all over my polish. Some of my nails were crooked. My nails looked terrible from the moment I left. My mother got a gel manicure and within a day it was chipping which means the nail was not prepped properly, or the gel was old. Either way for the price we paid for these nails theyre awful. I rarely post bad reviews but I was highly disappointed in what we paid for.

Karmen King I can say I am always satisfied with my mani/pedis here at Ivy Nails! My nail beds are very wide and its difficult to find someone to make my hands look good. Gary is wonderful and I get compliments every single time. My coworkers look forward to seeing his creations. Thank you for taking such great care of my nails!!!

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.

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.

Taytum Brown This is my favorite place in Temecula to get my nails done. Every nail tech here is amazing and the environment is so pretty and aesthetic. I’ve always loved how my nails come out when I go here. Tammy did an amazing job on this set!

Kelly Agrey We had a great time here today. The staff was very accommodating for me while I had my two and a half year old there! Everyone was very sweet and understanding to her needs. She got purple sparkly nails and loves them! Great staff, clean and wonderful place to unwind and luxuriate!

Cassandra Watts Amazing nail salon. Always great service. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. They even play good music and always have a show on to watch while you get your nails done. Free drinks and snacks too! They are the only nail salon that I genuinely enjoy going to. Tammy is my tech and she always does a great job!

maya lora Overall I had a great experience at the salon in person but was so disappointed that my gels chipped and fell off two days after getting them done. I’ve never had this happen before! Terrible quality!

Mackena Dean I love this place! I’ve never had a manicure last as long as it does with them. I get the hybrid gel n my natural nails and they last 3-4 weeks, if not longer. Amanda is very detail oriented and makes sure I love my nails before I leave. They have great service and a friendly staff. Also love that they offer a complimentary beverage with your service.

Nadiah Nix I have been coming here for about 5 years and they never disappoint! The modern decor and soft music selection always adds such a soothing touch to my service. I typically get my nails done by Tracey who is the Queen of shaping and she always helps you pick the service and color that best suits you. I go to Na for pedicures and when I tell you she is literally a God send?! She takes her time and really gets into the details of your pedicure. She’s gentle and really ensures that you leave feeling refreshed and catered to. Shout out to Na and Tracy and the owners of this establishment I’ll never stop coming! If you’re thinking about visiting this salon, Run don’t walk!

Julie Schmidt I had my nails done here and I am very disappointed . I was charged 100.00 for a fill and the nails were not shaped well , I had a broken nail and she glued it - did not replace it like she should have and now it just fell off and I have to glue it yet again . Very sloppy job for a 100 dollar fill. I feel ripped off . As a model - in front of the camera it’s my job , this is not up to standard.

D N Business is clean and have calm vibe. Staff are friendly and nice. My nails are usually long and strong, but after a year of health issues, my nails became brittle. My nail tech, Julie, introduced me to hybrid gel which is like acrylic, but have less chemicals, look much more natural, and most importantly, safer for the nail techs. Ive had my nails done twice with hybrid gel and both times the results have been great. I highly recommend using hybrid gel vs acrylic.

Athena Larranaga Great service! Friendly and welcoming staff! The ambiance is super relaxing, clean and professional, I was offered tea and a hot neck pillow during my visit which is amazing! I get my nails done here every 2-3 weeks and it’s definitely worth it! I do suggest booking an appointment before hand as they do fill up quickly, this is my favorite nail salon in the area!

Barbara Webb Very professional, Philip and Vivian have been doing my nails pedicure for years and they are the best

Destiny Galloway personally I won’t be coming back. I made an appointment and asked if they do Apple Pay and was told yes. sat down. she moved very quickly, which would have been great if she wasn’t cutting my cuticles up while she did it. she was on a phone call for half the appointment and honestly it felt like that was taking her focus away from what she was doing. I was cut to the point of bleeding at the sink when I went to wash my hands. she left acrylic residue all over my fingers-which I knew was going to happen bc she had the brush all over my fingers. one hand has a shiny top coat, while the other looks more matte-bc for whatever reason she felt the need to rush through my nails. now back to the Apple Pay. I go to pay and I asked if they do Apple Pay again, and was told “yes. but that doesn’t count for tips”. as if I was required to give a tip? I didn’t. will not be back and I don’t recommend.

Shamarra Davis Jennifer always does a wonderful job. It doesn’t matter what nail design I show her she always exceeds my expectations. This is my forever shop!!!! Customer service is always immaculate and the atmosphere is truly relaxing. Even if you come when it’s busy without an appointment, they’ll give you a time to come back to fit you in. The whole staff truly cares about satisfying the customers.

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.

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

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.

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 :)

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.

Curissa Dydell Let me start off with I got the best gel manicure I’ve ever had done here! Ivy did an amazing job. She took her time while cleaning up my cuticles without making me bleed at all. When it came down to the nail polish she let me know if I don’t like the color to please let her know and took her time with every nail. I couldn’t have been happier with the manicure and the service, if you ever are looking for a good gel manicure this is place to go!!!

Carolina Ross Ivy did my manicure. They look amazing! She was so attentive to detail. Definitely will be coming back.

DsMadre I was in town for my sons wedding and went in to have my nails done. They were only able to do the manicure on day one, but invited me back the next day for my pedicure. The ladies were exceptionally friendly and did a great job. If I lived in the area this would be my new salon. Thank you for making this mamas nails and toes look great for the BIG day!

Larissa Larson Every time I see Kim, I feel like the star of the show. I never met a nail technician who cares about creating a set that I truly want until I found Kim. She makes sure every step along the way that every detail is matching what the customer wants. She is always trying to make the experience better for the customer. I highly recommend visiting 4 Seasons Nail Spa!! You won’t regret it.

Tami Stroh My husband and I went in for some pampering of our feet. He was so happy for the attention he received by Ivy on his feet. I have muscular neuropathy and I saw Kim for the attention that I needed. I’ve been her client for many years and I trust her immensely. We’re so grateful!!!

Tery Saber I visited the salon because of the positive reviews, and they were truly justified! The place is clean and inviting, and the service is friendly and welcoming. Peter was very professional, and I highly recommend him.

Anne I had such a great experience here and will not go anywhere else. I had Kim for my pedi and she was literally perfect! So kind and amazing nail tech with such a good touch! I had Harmony for my pedi and she did such a good job - my nails look fabulous. The salon is clean and every tech was so good with their clients - checking in to make sure they were happy. They also came with a tray with water and these really awesome coffee cookies - they were so good! I highly recommend the shop.

Dakota Staggs I visited yesterday 3/9/25. First and foremost, the most beautiful and aesthetically pleasing nail salon I’ve ever been in. My mom and I were immediately greeted by the owner Kat, and she is an absolute ray of sunshine. She’s so sweet, patient, with a sprinkle of spunk and good humor. She gave my mom and I their nail menu, and also offered a wide variety of complimentary drinks (stated in the menu as well. Our appointments were for wedding nails as my brother just got married yesterday, and the lovely and soft spoken woman Tina FLEW through our manicures while doing them so beautifully. She provided suggestions and gave opinions on what she felt would look best for our nails, down to color and shape. Our appointment was at 10:30 and we were out by 1pm, both absolutely satisfied with not only our nails, but the overall service and atmosphere

Monique Moore Visited today with my 15 year old daughter for mani/ped me and full set for her as a walk in and they attended us right away. Very friendly and personable. Thorough, clean, and professional shop. They did a really good job on us both and we will return.

Sara Moller What a wonderful experience! I made an appt for today very last minute and they were very accommodating. Minh did a full set of acrylics (French tip) and he did a perfect job! He was very thorough and precise with his application, and I am very impressed. Nina did a classic pedicure for me, and she also was very precise and did an excellent job! I am very happy with my nails, and I will certainly be back. :)

Shayla Nary The absolute worst experience my partner and I have ever had at a nail salon. Lets start with the pedicures — didn’t do any nail care I had to ask him to cut my nails before starting polish. he didn’t think it was necessary to file them after clipping so I now have jagged nails. the massage was not relaxing. my partner had lotion put on his legs then a cold(supposed to be hot?) towel was placed over the lotion that wasn’t rubbed in. He sat like this for 5 min. Now the manicures… I’d take a picture but it’s now 3 days later and it’s not even on my fingers anymore. The first man doing my nails was removing a prior gel set with the sander thing. I had to yank my hand away multiple times in pain because he was grinding my nail down to much. The final straw was when I took my hand away and said “it hurts” he then responds “hurts?” And proceeds to laugh and sand in the same spot. I then told him he wasn’t going to touch me anymore and a lady comes to replace him. Let’s fast forward to when we get home my partners cuticles uncut he makes the statement he has more to pick at now…. On my nails the polish doesn’t even cover the whole nail. And somehow I still see polish from the previous set! I could feel the polish under the tip of my nails. When washing my hands I could feel cuts that had been made on my fingers around the nails. This was an extremely disappointing experience. It felt very rushed. Not a safe environment, please do better.

Wendy Staggs I have absolutely NEVER BEEN TO NAIL SALON MORE AMAZING THAN TEMECULA NAIL BAR!!!! From the moment we walked in Kat treated us as we were royalty!! So kind and hospitable I was blown away. I’m here for my son’s wedding and this location was open on Sundays and early!!! Another reason I chose to give them our business! The COMPLIMENTARY drinks was just another upgrade from any place I’ve ever been! Thanks for being a business with an integral structure as well as a business that REALLY DOES PUT THEIR CUSTOMERS FIRST!!!

Janet Godoy I love this nail salon it’s so beautiful! Everyone here is kind and attentive. I was asked if I wanted a complimentary water soda wine or mimosa. They keep up with the latest nail trends as well as the old ones, like airbrushed designs. I got a powder dip manicure and regular pedicure, the price is very reasonable for the amazing quality of work they do. I paid under $100 for both services. I also love that they are very professional when it comes to appointments. They’re always on time! I highly recommend them!

Felicia Moreno When I tell you I have never had such an amazing, efficient and nice service before. I just was in the area and looked up a salon and they have only been open a month but had amazing reviews. Now I get why, do you see how cute my nails are!!! Jenny was my nail tech and she did the absolute best job. It is hard gel and a design and I am so excited to go back to her now! Oh and I got my eyebrows waxed and that was amazing too!

Kimberly Prado I’ve visited D’or Nail Lounge twice now, and both times have been an amazing experience! This new salon has a modern chic vibe, and the atmosphere is so friendly and welcoming. On my first visit, I got cat eye nails and a pedicure, which included a luxurious steam treatment—such a nice touch! This time, I opted for Gel X French tips with a matching pedicure, and once again, everything was flawless. The attention to detail is incredible, and the experience was so relaxing. Louis has a steady hand and an eye for perfection. Sandy has a magical touch for a serene pedicure experience. If youre looking for a high-quality nail salon with great service and a beautiful ambiance, I highly recommend D’or! I’ll definitely be coming back.

Courtney Metter The salon is clean and well decorated. They were very friendly and the Zen pedicure was very relaxing. They offer a wide variety of refreshments. They offer way more options than my last salon. They did an amazing job on my ombre full set. This is my new salon now. Luis is great at nails.

Celeste Hoytt So upset to be the first one writing a negative review but I left the nail salon so disappointed and in pain from all the cuts and nicks. I must have hit Kelly on a bad day but she was in such a rush and it unfortunately showed. I came in as a walk in so maybe that was my mistake but I wanted to get my nails done before my birthday. I arrived at about 2:26 was back in my car at 2:56. I love the color but the actual polish job was pretty sloppy and I left with polish and glue on my skin, and many cuts on my nails. She did apologize for cutting but overall, just wish it didn’t happen and spent a little more time. Kelly seemed very sweet but when you pay for a service it’s disappointing to leave with a bad job. I saw her rushing out when I got in car so I must have been a last minute walk in. I would be willing to give another chance but would not recommend going as walk in or special event.
