T L Float came highly recommended by family in Santa Barbara, and they absolutely delivered! Hands down, one of the best deep tissue massages I’ve ever had. I was highly impressed with the service from both my therapist and the front desk staff—everyone was professional, welcoming, and made the experience even better. I only wish we had a Float back home because this would definitely be my new go-to spot. Thank you for an incredible experience!

Courtney Schneider Booked the Euphoria massage with Daniel. It was such a relaxing and nurturing experience. Top of the line for self care! When you check in, you have the opportunity to change into a robe and sandals before heading to the lounge area. Once your provider is ready they come get you and take you back to their treatment area. Daniel was caring and really wanted to understand what I hoped to get or of the experience. Daniel was insistent on creating the perfect experience and encouraged me to speak up if something felt really good or if adjustments could be made to make every second perfect! Highly recommend!

Rachel Steffens Ive gotten my brows waxed numerous times in the past at other locations.

Lisa Aldredge Smith I had the 60 minute Rose Hydration facial and it was one of the best facial treatments I’ve ever had. My aesthetician was very knowledgeable, respectful, and thorough. The facility was spotless. Included in the treatment was a neck and scalp massage. It was dreamy and I wait to go back!

Yessica Yomely I had a 90 min massage done by Leilani. Its with no hesitation, the best deep tissue massage I have ever received. I had a lot of knots in my back. Leilani was able to work on my back in such a way that I was not uncomfortable at all. Her massage touch was very intuitive, and I felt extremely relaxed. The hot towel, hot stones, and massage techniques were excellent. The entire atmosphere at the spa was so relaxing. When we went to the massage room, I felt even more relaxed with the music playing, ocean sounds, and the soft lights. Complementary drinks and snacks were offered to me. Overall, it was an amazing experience.

jenil vaghasiya Very rude owner and worst place I ever visit. Didn’t allow to talk with my friends when i was there. He told us to keep quiet when we are in city to enjoy. It’s better to visit somewhere else. Racist owners. He was so rude to other people too in front of us. He gave preference to other people.

Zenil Vaghasiya I was disappointed with my recent visit to Nail Palace. The staff was notably rude during our appointment. Specifically, we were told to ‘keep quiet’ in a manner that felt disrespectful and unwelcoming. It’s important for a service business to make all clients feel comfortable and valued, and unfortunately, that was not the case during my visit. I hope the salon takes this feedback into consideration to improve their customer service.

Ciara Sarver I had the best experience here today for a last minute Gel manicure. Lee was so especially sweet, swift, and made me feel so comfortable. She even gave me an arm massage which I didnt think was typical with a gel mani, and cracked my knuckles for me because I love that! Everyone in the adorable shop, even the customers, were smiley and friendly...I will definitely be back. Google needed a better review for this place, I heard while I was there that yelp has 5 stars, so this definitely needs to stand up to that! Thank you Lee, I will recommend this place first to anyone looking for a perfect nail job.

Cara Christian I came here for the convenience since it was close to an appointment I had later and they could fit me in. However it was the worst manicure experience I have had. I’m not sure of the guy’s name that booked me but he was not gentle. Never have I gone to a salon that removed my dip powder with a cuticle cutter and an acrylic nail! My old dip was starting to lift off my natural nail so he said it was easier for him to cut parts off where it was lifting with a cuticle cutter and then used an acrylic nail to get underneath and pop off the rest of it. Immediately I told him that it felt weird. On the second nail I said this kinda hurts. On the 4th nail I said this is hurting, do you use acetone soak? He said no this is better. I told him “I’m okay with soaking them, I have the time for it”, but he didn’t listen to me. He went on a tangent that everyone does it differently. I would also like to mention that I was the only person in the salon, there was definitely time to remove them properly with acetone. After removing 7 of my nails and splitting the tips on two of them, I asked for the nail drill. He did switch to the drill but he was also quick to burn me. Finally the old dip was removed. He did not offer to cut my nails. Once I realized he was ready to start setting the dip powder, I had to tell him I wanted my nails cut not just filed (mainly because he broke two of my nails and I wanted it to be even). When we got to the dipping part, he repeatedly dipped each nail in the powder making them thick and uneven. This isn’t all that bad since you can smooth it out with the drill later, but it did take longer this way and caused the color to be less bright since he had to smooth so much of it down. And because he had to smooth so much down, he cut me 4 times at the cuticle beds with the nail drill!! It’s been two days since I got my nails and they are still stinging!! I’ve been putting Neosporin on because I’m worried about infection. To top it alllll off, I had to pay an extra $10 for the removal of dip!! A removal that wasnt even properly done! This 50min appointment cost me $70!! I have never not tipped before but this was a time I for sure felt no tip was needed. I did clarify the price of dip on the phone before, but I was not aware they charge extra if you already have dip on. Every salon I’ve been to includes removal in the price if youre getting a full set. The end result is nice, but it was the worst experience ever. And overpriced. I feel scammed and I don’t not think this salon is up to regulations for dip nails. Never have I seen a manicurist remove dip nails like that before. I highly do NOT recommend coming here for dip powder nails. This first photo is right after I got them done, you can see 3 of my nails on this hand are cut at the nail bed. Also when he was doing the top gel coat, you could clearly see they were bleeding and he didnt mention anything about it. The second photo is two days later, my nail beds are still reddened and sting.

Shawna Kinsey I got some long French acyrilic nails done the other day by Tammy she was very friendly and nice and did a good job and was fast. Only complaint I have is the price it was $110 but she says they will last so it’s worth it, I will see I guess. Also she left a little glue and stuff around the nails which took a few days to come off which I don’t know if that’s what salons normally do cause I never get my nails done. I thought the nails were going to be $75 as they said acrylic nails cost that much , Tammy says they cost more cause of the pink color and length.Overall I enjoyed the experience and love the nails.

Cary Kresl I’m new to Santa Barbara and tried 3 other nail salons before finding Best Nails. They are awesome! I had my first gel manicure after years of “dipping”, and I wasn’t sure if it would last as long as acrylic, but it did! It was 3 full weeks until I got a crack on my forefinger. I’m happy that gel is not as hard and damaging to my natural nail. I’ve been back 3 times now and I love working with my technician, Carrie. She is very experienced, efficient, and friendly. And the vibe of the salon is sweet and happy. I highly recommend Best Nails!

Sharon Jackson This review is based on all 3 of my experiences there, which makes it worse that as a repeat customer my business is not appreciated. First off, I asked for a new acrylic set since I’ve already had 2 fill-ins. One of my chief complaints here is that these people always tell me what I need instead giving me what I ask for. First time I was here, I asked for a full acrylic set and a manicure, they told me my hands looked fine and I only needed the set. This time I ask for new set, they tell me I only need a fill in. Anywho- I just got a French fill in earlier today, and after my hands were thrown around like a rag doll for half an hour, I leave but don’t realize until after how poor of a job was done. See photos. White paint smudges, and he didn’t bring the white down to the full corner of my nails on all my left fingers. The guy didn’t even prop my hands up on a hand rest this time. I am hoping this bad service isn’t because I’m black and they’re always assuming I won’t tip (even though I have EVERY time), but it truly feels like it’s a racial thing because the pretty white woman next to me got treated like a goddess that blessed their shop with her presence. I’ve always supported Asian-owned businesses without bias, but I can’t seem to get that respect in return so now I am avoiding them. Anyway, for anyone who cares, be advised this place is pretty to look at but the service is truly terrible in my opinion.

Rachael OConnor They absolutely hacked my nails. Apparently a "repair" should sit up at an angle (and all the other nails are smooth). Initially offered to redo my nails, then when I was hesitant I was told "we have people waiting..." and "why are you just standing their fighting?". I wasnt fighting. Really poor.

Ariel Elrod I wouldn’t call this an “upscale” salon, nor was it very relaxing… located in an older building, front door open, cars honking and little bugs lingering around me during the whole service. I got a pedicure. The technician seemed nice but was behind on time. Anyway, she told me she couldn’t cut my nails because my skin was too close to the nails, this resulting to her only using a file which took a long time, I noticed my nails were different lengths and she argued they weren’t, I just gave up. I have no understanding as to why she wouldn’t cut them as I have been getting pedicures for several years and no one has ever brought this “issue” to my attention or refused to cut my nails with clippers, I have also cut my nails myself with no “issues”…. The massage was nice, she painted my nails and did a top coat, said they were dry and I was good to go so I left. I wore sandals/was barefoot the rest of the night, I took a shower about 3 hours later and all the polish smudged all over. I also noticed my feet are very dry on the bottom still so I don’t think they have a good procedure intact for pedicures, it seemed very basic/low end. Overall, there were more negatives than positives, I feel like I wasted my time and money, I would not recommend this salon and I will not be back.

Isla Vista Hair Co. as a beauty professional in the industry for almost 19 years i am in awe and great appreciation for Miraya and her team of caring & talented nail artists. not only are they exceptional at what they do, the environment is beautiful, clean, & extremely inviting. i had given up on nail salons all together because they all felt the same. i always felt rushed in and out, not cared for, ignored, and they always hurt me and ultimately ruined my nails. now my natural nails are the longest, strongest & most beautiful they’ve ever been! unlike all of my previous experiences in other places, they last without any chipping, lifting or breaking and that says a lot considering i’m a busy hairstylist in water constantly. i’m also a nail picker/ biter and im never made to feel bad if i overly pick at them and they have to fix it. they also offer super easy online booking and have a great reminder system in place. definitely worth the investment to have the nails of my dreams! so grateful this place exists and i found it!

Wiktoria Marroquin ITS A NO NO FOR ME I’m having my nails done for past 8+ years. Always going for same either gel polish or structure gel on my natural nails. Usually paying 50-70$ depending if I’m getting some nail art or not. My nails were done by Miraya. I asked for a lavender french tip. Firstly my cuticles were only trimmed with cuticle cutter and I needed to ask for more detail cuticle care because they were looking very rough.. Secondly when I saw my first hand with tip I was speechless.. It was twice as thick as it is on the pictures I attached here. The girl got an attitude when I asked her if she can change it.. That wasn’t very nice since I was trying to be very polite about it. French like this was trending when my Mom was young. It was looking very bad. There is no attention to detail at this salon. I have bubbles everywhere, not even edges - gel is wavy full of indentation on the edges. My right thumb looks like it has a week growth already, the polish is very far from the cuticle. Total: $83 I would think twice before booking appointment at the Nail Nook.

T McKC Ticca and her staff and THE BEST in Santa Barbara for nail care. Ive been seeing Ticca for a few years now and there is NO ONE else Ive been to that has ever given me the experience I have had at her shop. The chairs are comfy furniture-type chairs, not the typical vibrating/massaging chairs, and the foot basins are lined portable tubs. They take their time with their manicures and pedicures, carefully using their tools with skill. I always feel relaxed and cared for when Im there. Prior to coming to Ticca I had acrylic nails. It took me a while to get my nails back to health but she really helped me. She suggested specific products, I used them and my nails are finally back to their strong pre-acrylic selves!! She knows what my nails need and I listen to her. She is also a great nail artist. I have given her some challenges to put onto my nails and she has gotten it done. The staff is high quality, kind and skilled. Personalized nail care, relaxing atmosphere and quality service is what you will get at One Carat. Its more of a nail spa to me, really!

Jackie Tran CNJ Always does a great job. I brought in my friends from SD to get their nails done during our short weekend vacation. They all loved it. They were even able to accommodate a huge group of 3 guys and 6 girls. The guys were so relaxed that they fell asleep! Good Job to everyone there!

Nayeli Garcia I would rate this -0 stars!!! I’ve been to many nail salon but this would have to be the worst experience I’ve ever had. I asked for pedi which took an hour to complete. The lady cut my nails way too short and uneven but that’s not even the worst part when removing my cuticles SHE CUT ME AND DIDNT EVEN SAY ANYTHING SHE PROCEEDED DOING MY NAILS now it looks like it’s getting infected! NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN!

Regina Breech Helen is by far the best nail artist I have ever been to and she is definitely the fastest! She has meticulous attention to detail, and is extremely consistent. I love my nails every single time I go to her, which is often! I’ve never been to another nail tech that is as consistent and as fast as Helen. I highly recommend her! You will absolutely love your nails!

Elise Dauterive Absolutely love getting my nails done by Helen! She’s very talented, and always pays attention to detail. My nails always look like the reference photo I give her, and they last a really long time with absolutely no lifting ! She’s the best!! I also got a color change on my toes and even that was amazing, she made them look really nice even though it was just a color change. Go to Helen!

Julia Kalriess Its okay. I went to Vicki who is supposed to be amazing but I found every time I went the nail art wasnt very good sloppy at best. She didnt seem to take the time with me specifically to make it nice maybe she just didnt like my designs to make them quality.

Joyce Simmons Creative Nails in Santa Barbara has a friendly atmosphere that’s very welcoming. It’s nice to walk in without an appointment and receive first class treatment. They did an amazing job on my recent Christmas manicure.

Greta Krieger I’ve been going here for about 6 months. I love the technicians. You really can’t go wrong but I particularly respect Bennys work. He is very talented and super creative. He is always on schedule within 5 minutes of your appointment and never runs overtime. You will fill the warmth the minute you walk in. It’s a small place with much talent. Appreciate you all- Greta

Sharon Jackson I love this shop because they are the only nail salon I have found that gives great, friendly service with a smile and prices to match. They make me feel like my business is truly appreciated. I love the massage chairs and my manicurist, Lisa, is the best! She always makes sure I am happy with every detail. This was my fourth visit and I will be back!

Margaret Francis Choosing nail polish has always been a struggle for me, but these colors are all stunning and well executed. With the Gel Manicure no longer do I have to worry about color accuracy or the finish, if it is smooth it is guaranteed to look good.

Edna Almira I love square nails, but other salons havent done them to my liking. Here, the technician shaped my nails perfectly; Im really pleased with the results. The polish color is beautiful, and everything was done neatly and tidily!
