Top Best 21 Nail Salons in Petaluma, Sonoma (part 2)

C A They were very nice and easy to talk to. My mom has never gotten her nails done and told the woman doing her nails. The woman showed her 4 neutral colors and my mom picked what she liked best. My color was "funny bunny". I wish it was more opaque and more flat (it has some depth with blue sparkles you can barely see, really, you cant see the sparkles unless it is in direct light and you really look), but I didnt ask for any changes, I was still happy with it. I will go here again.

Valerie Cantrell FIrst time visit to First Hand, had my nails done by Tracy. She did a great job! The visit was so relaxing and enjoyable, my nails look beautiful. I will definitely come back!

Jan Fran The people are so nice here, and thats why I gave three stars. In comparison to my old nail salon on the coastside, First Hand charges a bit more but I was willing to pay it, if I had a good experience. My manicure did not even last a week (more like 2 days), the pedicure polish did not last two weeks. I wasnt doing heavy work, either, just typing on a keyboard. Based on that experience, I wouldnt go back. Still looking for the salon in Petaluma that will woo me away from Pacifica Beauty Salon. Maybe its the quality of the polish, I dont know, but Im used to a pedicure lasting a month and nails at least two weeks., and not talking about a gel polish, either.

Kristina Fieldsa My experience at First Hand with Tracy & Angela was wonderful. Their knowledge, experience, chosen product lines for one’s natural nail is quite literally the best! They are incredibly patient with new clients, after having had extensions with acrylic for over five year’s. My nail plates had significant damage from different products, shops, nail technicians etc. Just look at the difference.

Laura grimes Michelle is excellent. The other manicurists seem very good as well. All are friendly and professional. Be sure to call for an appointment, though! They are often booked for the day.

Mal Bee I love Dina’s work! She is always updating her gel polish colors and her nail art options so I never have to do any nail repeats. Dina is also great at working with my schedule to get my nails done, which is much appreciated.

Shannon Brewer I love my nails she did a great job! Great conversation and also super relaxing time while I was there! Already have my next appointment!

Ann Fournier Dina was great and very helpful when I had no idea what to do. Did an overlay and did a beautiful job with a design when I gave her free reign after just telling her my favorite color. Got my next appointment booked and would highly recommend!!!

Kiara-Lynn Rossiter Dina always goes out of her way to come up with beautiful nail designs and I never leave with a set Im not completely in love with! She has dealt with my requests and always makes them perfect! If you want gorgeous nails, I highly suggest you go see Dina!

Lizz Ronin Amazing job on nails. Ask for Tiger! Good price and friendly staff.

Lisa Phetphadoung Lisa and her husband have been doing nails at this salon for 25+ years and are absolutely wonderful! I have never had anyone so gentle on my nails EVER! They do an outstanding job! When u walk in it doesn’t smell of acrylic liquid which most places do! They do not charge an outrageous amount to do a fill which right now is $41. And a full set is $51! Give them a try!

Kathleen M Clean salon with friendly staff. Easy in and out parking lot. Great gel manicure & good prices. I will definitely go back.

Jennifer My bandmate and I got simple standard manicures done, chill time

Marina Travel A few years ago, I found the BEST nail salon in the valley! I return regularly for the immaculate hygiene, comfy setting, friendly service, and attention to detail. To help keep prices reasonable, they only take cash and Venmo, so be prepared.

Eszter Rabin I got a mani/pedi from this place. The place is nice and the mani pedi I received is ok - expect that - the lady who did my nails spent more time watching the two huge TV screens (one with a cooking show, one with a travel show) than my hand or feet that she was working on. In fact she sat sideways away from me so she can see the TV better. To say that I didnt feel valued as a customer is the understatement of the century.

Julia Karr Not sure why people said they had bad paint jobs. Wanted to make sure there was a recent review to show the paint job is great and as expected! (Ignore my feet, haha) Quick, friendly, and cost effective. I’ll be back! Also got a gel mani that was great. Cash/Venmo only.

A & K Hosted our daughter’s 8th birthday here and it was amazing. The staff, Mini and Tony are so nice. We had the best time and they made we’ve girl feel so special. Also, they did a great job and our polish stayed on for a long time. Great prices too!

Darby Tarantino Ive had my nails done by Andy a couple of times now and he does an incredible job. His attention to detail is extraordinary! Hes a master at his craft and I would highly recommend him and the team at Beautiful Nails for your pedicure and manicure needs!

Sara R Always friendly and exquisite work! I enjoy fancy details and these ladies always take the time and effort to make my acrylics perfect. My go-to nail salon in Petaluma. Do make an appointment-they are in high demand b/c they are the best!

Kerry Enright I drive 45 minutes each way to continue to have my manicure and pedicure at Petaluma Nails. They are the best! Clean shop, great color choices, and always try to fit me in. I usually go to Hong and Jennifer, but they’re all just awesome!!

Sandy Aslanian Expert nail care by friendly technicians, peaceful environment, reasonable charges for various services, and ample parking. I highly recommend this nail salon.

Mary-Beth Ray Both Kieu and Lan did a great job tonight on mine and my husband’s feet!

Juicy Moon Always a great time and they do a great job. Very accommodating and friendly.

Jessica Beebe Queen and Kate are simply great! This place is clean, friendly and inviting! They really take care of their customers and make sure they do exactly what you want so when you leave, youre satisfied and happy! I highly recommend! If you havent been, youre missing out on a luxury experience! Please give them a try, you wont be disappointed!

George George Had my nails done by Queen today. Before I sat down I was offered water and tea. She was super friendly, attentive, explained that the place I previously went to did not fill correctly and I was going to get fungus. She gently removed the nails and explained how as a client I should be looking closely to avoid this issue in the future. The space is welcoming, classy and chic..

Simone Archini I’ve in PETALUMA pretty much all my life. I’ve been to nail salon after nail salon. Originally I just stopped in to Crystal nails to remove some old acrylic, And I was gonna give up on them for a while. The sweet lady Kate Talked me into a set. And I’ve been back every 2 weeks either for a nail fill or a lash fill. It’s nice to be able to get all of my services done in one place. They are really amazing at all their services, but they are all so sweet and compassionate to. Every time I set up an appointment I feel like I’m going to my friends house. I Definitely recommend this place.

betsy R Queen does a great job. My pedicure was really nice and my nails looked great for a super long time. Very clean and nice atmosphere. Crystal nail in Petaluma is my new go to place.

Valentina monroy If you have the opportunity to go to this place, please don’t do it!! The service was really bad. The nail tech seemed like she didn’t want to do the job, she was constantly texting at the beginning and rushing to get the nails done even when the place was completely empty. Also, she didn’t even do a good job with my nails, Left some of the green color I had before, the gel is extremely thick and use a completely different blue. you can see the pictures and judge it yourself

Ann Edminster Fantastic and energizing pedicure/foot massage! A clean and relaxing environment; skilled practitioners.Our go-to place for pedicures.

Tracy Greenwald I’ve been getting pedicures at Naturally Happy Feet & Fingers for 15 years. They are friendly and efficient, and I always enjoy a relaxing experience there. I love the peaceful environment free of the noxious odors of artificial nails, and the sanitary copper tubs with replaceable liners. Highly recommended.

Aumarie Benipayo Wow! What a relaxing and sweet experience here. The technicians take such good care of you here.

Angela Casey These folks are wonderful. I have been using their services for years and have always had an excellent service by lovely people.

Victoria Webb I love this place. They take great care of you and you could add a bonus extended massage on.

Blyn Pro I went to this salon for a gel manicure removal, and my experience was quite disappointing. The initial technician who filed my nails was gentle and attentive, but after a few minutes, an older lady took over. Unfortunately, she was much harsher and started digging into my nails, which was painful. I told her it hurt, but instead of easing up, she continued grinding my nails down. As a result, they became uneven and extremely thin. Now, I can barely grip anything due to the pain. I believe there are talented nail technicians here, but I urge the salon to prioritize customer comfort. People come in to relax, not to leave in pain. Based on my experience, I wont be returning, and I cant recommend this salon to others.

Helen Bond ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing experience! The staff is super friendly, and the salon is spotless and relaxing. I got a gel manicure by Lisa and spa pedicure by Kim, and they were both done to perfection. The technicians are skilled, attentive, and use high-quality products. Highly recommend booking in advance since they get busy, but it’s worth the wait for a truly pampering experience!

Bridget Lyons Today, my daughter Jessica and I decided to treat ourselves to a gel manicure and pedicure. What a fantastic treat! This place is so clean, and they do such a wonderful job! Oh, and the chairs actually work and give you a real massage!

Rena Ribeiro I came here for a gel removal and I had to tell the lady doing my nails to continue taking off parts that she missed and I had to go home and cut my nails and file them down and I still have pieces of gel coming off. I called to request a refund as I was not happy with the service, and she declined a refund and said it’s up to the owner but then couldn’t tell me when the owner was going to be in. I would not go here.

Silvia Marquez Alcala Amazing customer service, and great attention to detail. The staff is so friendly and they work hard to make your nails and experience perfect!

Amy Breeds Everyone at T&T is so great! They always do a fantastic job and pay attention to detail. They remember their customers and they make you feel like part of the family.

Evangelina Marquez Lang & Tom went above and beyond to make my pedicure look perfect. Great friendly customer service.

Desiree McGinnis I absolutely love T&T nails. The owners(Tami & Tom) are very nice. I have been going here for 20 years.

Kelly Sullivan From my very first walk in a few years ago I have only had great experiences. The staff is remembered me after a year long absence and even remembered my prefered colors. Their work is caring and thorough, easily the best pedicure Ive ever had. They dont try to up sell you on products and services, they just do a really good job. The massage is lovely and the polish is near perfect every time. If the number of repeat customers tells you anything you know they arendoing something right. My favorite local nail spot

hilda teran-franklin Love my new pedicure. 1st time w/ Nila. She is professional and personable. I will be returning when my long time manicurist is out

Michele Velasquez Any services I have received from multiple providers at this location have been amazing. Thank you, ladies.

Mel Goldade Coorperative Beauty by Nila is in a great location with plenty of parking. Once you walk in the door it is a very welcoming environment with a friendly staff, the salon is clean and tidy. All the services I have received by multiple providers have been great, I always leave satisfied.

M C A very welcoming and warm energy the moment you walk into this salon. The ambiance has an aesthetic appeal designed to make you feel comfy and taken care of. Cooperative Beauty by Nila are Co-vid precautious, it’s very reassuring. Be prepared to be taken care of professionally, warmly and have your services done responsibly. Very knowledgeable and helpful in all aspects of hair, nails & waxing.

miss pottsticker Excellent manicure and pedicure in a beautiful relaxing environment using quality products .

nancy holland Cindy at top Nails is the most patient, creative and talented nail tech I’ve met in a long long time. They were so kind at this lovely and very clean nail salon! And everyone made me feel very comfortable and special. It’s hard to find a great nail salon that takes charges reasonable prices and takes the time to meet your needs. This one is a keeper and Cindy is a star. !!!!

Meghan Danby I loved it so much Sophia did a wonderful job.

Ashley Chan i’m visiting from new york for the holidays and needed to get my nails done. this was my first time getting this kind of nail art and cindy nailed it! I loved it so much, I came here a second time 2 weeks later to get my nails done again before I head back to the east coast!

King Leo Laporte Wish I could give a positive review of this place but Phoebe (new employee?) refused to paint my toenails "because I was a man". Luckily they were able to fit me in at Allure Nails on Mcdowell. Thank you Jennifer!

Danett Williams I do not want to give a negative rating. Yet, since my gel nails only lasted 6 days, I feel compelled. This is the worst gel manicure Ive ever gotten. It was not even cured correctly. They are nice but it was not worth my time or money. They also painted outside the lines on my toes. Another girl in the salon had to redo some of my toes that were running before I left. I feel they rushed. I hope they get better as they were very nice. I also do not feel they have a good selection of colors, glitter, and art. Maybe this review will help them improve.

Helen Bond I recently visited this salon after being enticed by their Facebook promotion. I called and texted them, sharing the advertised design I wanted and confirming my appointment. Upon arrival, I was informed that the technician doesn’t do designs and insisted I choose from her options. I had a broken nail and requested a repair to match my existing nails. She mentioned the color wouldn’t match, so I suggested adjusting the other nails for consistency. The result was a crooked nail, and the technician was uncommunicative and unprofessional throughout. This experience was disappointing, and I won’t be returning. I urge others to be cautious of their misleading advertisements, as the quality of service does not align with what they promote on Facebook.

La Jany Everyone at the nail salon was very nice. I went in for a nail fill. And I noticed they work very fast my nails where poorly filed and didn’t even clean my hands of so much acrylic dust. My gel color looks grown out already, my nails were not shaped at all. My nails Look lumpy and not filed, and they look as if I had 5 layers of gel on them. I also took my daughter in and she had a full set done. Her nails are going in different directions and you can see the glue from the rhine stones and are very poorly shaped. They are all so sweet but their nail work is so sloppy. Sorry I won’t be coming back to this place again.

Andrea Guerretta It was my first time going here to get my nails done. I absolutely loved the atmosphere, the girls are all so sweet and nice. I had dip powder nails done and they look so pretty, I love them so much. I also like that they try to use chemical free products to prevent skin irritation. Ill definitely be back again. Thank you!!

Anna Stone I come here monthly for pedicures -- its my favorite place in Petaluma! All of the staff members are friendly, the space is clean and welcoming, and they deliver a really high quality pedi (even with a hot stone massage). Thank you, Allure!

Alejandra Arce I never leave reviews but I think is important because I always read reviews to make sure the place is good. Never in my life had a nail fungus until I started going to this place, had a terrible toe nail fungus on my big toe, :( I don’t think they have a good higiene with their equipment.

Marjorie McCoy Both manicurists hurt my mom and I during our pedicures. One clipped my cuticles too much and cut my skin, and the other was filing in a strange direction and digging into my moms skin. Also my moms nails were not filed the same on each nail. When she asked for them to be filed the same, the girl blamed on her nail bed and was reluctant to do anything further to even them out. I did like the addition of the salt scrub on the legs and the massage was nice. The salon was clean and seemed sterile.

Nina KO I just moved fr SF to Hawaii last year & moved back to No. Cal… staying in Petaluma since this past Mid-June. I’ve been to several nail salons, which was ok & finally discovered “Creative Nails”. I didn’t have an appt today 9/14/23 & they took me anyway. I had gel manicure done & Kim did an excellent job! No bumps, no rough edges, great job! Very smooth & nice looking! She was great & friendly. Yay! Thank you! Kim!

Cora l Did a great job on my pedicure! The man was very polite and painted my nails quite well with a relaxed, unrushed experience. A nice nail place to go, worth it for the price

Amber Garcia I made an appointment just to wait there for over 20 mins after and then once the guy decided he was ready for me, he asked what color I wanted so I said white. The guy then said no and asked again what color I wanted and again I said white. He tried to convince me pink was a better choice. After saying I wanted white 8 times he told me to sit and called someone and talked incredibly loud while filing my nails then asked again what color I wanted. He grabbed white after I said it again and painted one finger and asked if that’s really what I wanted. The pinky was fine then he did another nail and it was completely chunky so I asked if he could take it off. He took one nail off so I said please take the rest off (the base coat) because I changed my mind I did not want my nails done, he said no. So I walked out. Worst experience

Amber Almond Xuan did the cutest hard gel manicure! She took her time and made it so special! My students will be so excited to see the adorable turkey. Highly recommend Xuan for your next appointment.

Hứa Duyên The best nail salon I’ve ever been.They were so nice to me and also gave me the Sprite for free !! And I still can not believe that it’s cheaper than some salon but the quality is totally the same !! Love it guys !! Highest recommendation

Emily Xaun did an amazing job on my gel x fill in! they look so cute and just in time for the holiday season! she also did my toes equally as good.

Chloe Lechuga I was looking for a new place in Petaluma and found Bloomingails! It’s a wonderful environment. They take cleanliness and sanitizing seriously and have great customer service. They offer complimentary beverages too! This is the first place I’ve gone where my gel actually stays. Everyone I’ve had has been great. Prices are pretty typical, but it’s worth it because the gel stays so long.

Clairette Clementino Wilson The minute you enter you feel welcome and feel comfortable right away! The manicurist, regardless of who you get, is always professional. Make an appointment, ask for a favorite, or walk in. They were extremely busy but went out of their way to get me in! Outstanding business! Love it

Izabella Russell Visited there today April 13, 2021. absolutely the worst nail salon in petaluma by FAR. went in for a mani/pedi, showed up on time and the two workers there were extremely rude. also the manicure was plain awful and smudged as SOON as she told me that it was okay. then they refused to fix it then continued to charge me and my friend 133 dollars for just two pedis and One manicure. that was just a simple paint and go. no apology, nothing. absolutely terrible this store is. do not visit this salon. look for better places in the area. if i could add pictures i would. -0/10 ps. this service took 3 hours. our appointment was at 10am and we didn’t leave the building till 1pm.

Elv Raikk Nails were put on crooked, and polish would not dry even after hours! Huge waste of time and money.

Katie Brooke I’ve been going to this nail salon on Edith and East Washington street the last 3.5 years I lived on Edith across from the shop previously. The woman who work there have been nothing but amazing to me. The place is extremely clean & very well aired out from the fresh air outside. I love it because it’s not the factory style nail salon. Very quiet but busy. They do a nice job on my feet & nails. I’ve really appreciated their friendly attitude towards me too. Thank you, owner & the other nail tech for your services. ❤️

Deanna Sanborn I’m very conscious of my hands and Nancy gave me an amazing gel manicure that now I feel confident of how my hands look. She listened to what I wanted and took extra time to give me what I asked for . Thank you for your artistic talent!

Anna-marie Smith I originally came here because it was the only nail salon open on a sunday night at 7:30. but now that i’ve experienced their INCREDIBLE manicure and pedicure, i will definitely be back during some more ‘normal’ business hours. super sweet staff, and a clean & neat salon. they did such a good job on my embarrassingly neglected feet, that i tipped them almost the same amount as the cost of the mani and pedi.

Mermaid Letellier Unpretentious, lovely people who actually still do "pedicures" not just polish changes for $50. The best foot massages in the county by far! Love these ladies. Worthy of your support.

Mia Aurelia Waste of time and money. I decided to come in for a quick and simple manicure on my natural, short nails. My expectation was realistic—clean and tidy nails, nothing fancy. She did a terrible job on my cuticles (but didn’t cut me) and was sloppy with the polish. Initially she wanted to do 1 coat of stripy polish where you could clearly still see my nail, and I had to ask her to do an additional coat. She dented the polish and just moved on—again, I had to ask her to fix it. She didn’t paint down to the cuticle, so my nails already look grown out. On top of that, she painted over a broken nail that ended up snagging and cracking. Totally waste of time and money. Literally came home and took the polish off.

Dory The fish Absolutely disgusting. Didn’t wash hands after giving someone a pedicure, was eating while doing my nails, my nails are uneven, chipped, and she started yelling at me when I asked for a refund.

Cary Bickley This is an amazing find. I stumbled on it on a walk and had the best pedicure I’ve had in a long time. Everything from the nails being beautiful to a really fantastic massage on my legs and feet and good work on my calluses without any up charges This is a great value and if you haven’t tried it or haven’t tried it lately I highly recommend !!!

Genuine Molina Hard Gel polish removal and nude neutral anil color gel manicure nails wall in no appointment made prior purchased. Wonderful people. I love to pop in ear phones and let them do their thing and they were very nice, not rough with nails. And treated the nail bed as gently as possible with the removal aspect. I appreciate this as I have a hard time growing layers of nail so I have thin nails anyhow. They ended with a small neck massage and prefer cash or venmo as the card reader they sadly have to charge for the card transaction. But I was fine with the extra card charge. Great family.

jack ngo No good massage

Barry Spencer Wonderful massage. Very professional and relaxing.

Chrissy This was maybe the worst place I’ve ever been to. One lady was on the phone yelling the entire time, which was stressful and annoying. The place was freezing and the water was also (my toes turned blue), and it coat $70 for a gel pedicure without any type of services (no wax, no hot stone, cuticles weren’t even trimmed really). They used the same nail file on my toes as they did to “exfoliate” which was weird and uncomfortable. And then they picked off the chipping gel (from 10 min earlier) with their nails and reapplied half a coat with no top coat. It’s also super run down and idk how sanitary it is. I ran away and didn’t get my manicure. I hate leaving bad reviews but… don’t go here

Koy M I use to come here with my mom years ago and will continue to come to this place because they care to meet my needs and I always leave satisfied. My nails always look fantastic and they stay on alot longer. They are reasonably priced, and a friendly environment. I highly recommend.

Rosey Subs The place is bit busy and had to wait for a long time but it was worth the wait!! I love the nails so cute. I gave her an inspo and what I wanted and she achieved it so well. They can do designs so well and I think the prices are worth it. Definitely recommend this place!!

Justmyfavorites 1 The quality of supplies they used was so sub par. The nails lifted and separated at just two days. I can peel it off with such minimal effort. Plus they were so rushed and made my cuticles sore for about 2 weeks. Stay away. I had to wait a full two weeks for my skin to heal and then go to a better salon.

Liz Beth I love this place!! Cindy always does an amazing job on my nails. She is so talented and a TRUE artist who pays attention to detail. My acrylic nails always last at least 3 weeks too, which is a major plus! She has many ombre options to choose from and files my nails to the exact shape that I love. I would highly recommend! As others have said, they do get busy though, so you definitely want to set some time aside when you go. Definitely worth it though, in my opinion!!

Suzanne Baumgardner Julie was absolutely wonderful, friendly, professional and nice great conversation. She did a very nice job, fantastic massage on my feet and calves. The best I have been to. I wish I didnt live in another state, I would be a regular.

Jenn foucault KIDDER Since Kim left service has gone down but prices have gone up! My mother-in-law had to go back 3 times in 2 weeks to have her mails fixed because they kept falling off! Im very sad to say we are looking for a new salon, and we loved glamour!

Denise Kramer Im curious to note that while there are several great reviews for this salon on Google, they have only chosen to take three excerpts from one bad review to post . . . My experience at Glamour has been good, for the most part. I like the copper bowls since they promote cleanliness and help fight any nasty fungus. The hot stone massage is wonderful! Ive had no problems with any of my nails chipping, even with regular polish, on my pedicures. I dont have nail polish on my fingernails, and they do a really nice job buffing my nails. The wax treatment is an inexpensive and lovely extra! I am taking my crew there tomorrow as a bonus!

Michelle wilkinson Amazing service!!! Great attention to detail and always will fit you in. Best place in town!!!

Sandra Muckinhaupt I have lived in Sonoma County for over 25 years and have searched for a good salon. This one is the best! Everything about the salon is top drawer. The use of copper bowls instead of plastic lined baths is such a luxury. The staff is so nice and always accomodating. My sister lives in Petaluma and found the salon. I dont live in Petaluma but find it is worth the drive.

Monica Morrell So disappointed, my first impression was it was kinda dirty, but it was Friday night and I was way past due…so I went for it…though I had a decent pedicure, the polish wasn’t great but, I’m more upset about they wouldn’t soak my acrylic nails, they said they only pull (rip) it off with clippers. I said I that Don’t want my acrylic nails ripped off, I’d prefer to soak off acrylic. She said That takes to long…. Now I have to find somewhere that has the same polish color. Very unhappy I have to NOW make two trips to get my P&M..

A ANS I love getting a manicure and pedicure here. A large selection of polish and great pedicure with massaging seats and massage options. I recently got gel done and love it. Eyebrow waxing is also fabulous. It’s a small local business I love to support. I know staffing is challenging everywhere so please bring your patience. Weekdays early in the morning with an appointment have been best for me if I’m in a hurry. Otherwise I’ll check in and head to Ross or Trader Joe’s for shopping and come back. Lots of parking and very convenient for running errands. The manager led the effort to donate food and clothing to fire victims during the Santa Rosa fires. I will never forget that kindness.

Danielle Adams I am not someone who writes reviews but I feel that it’s necessary to let anyone who is looking for a pedicure in Petaluma to not go here. The quality of their work is horrible. My technician was incompetent and had to be replaced. She burned my nail with the drill going to fast, she would not soak off my gel she repeatedly used the drill when I asked for an alternative. She then used the drill at a slower setting and was barely making progress it was taking way too long to remove polish. She cut my nails sideways and did not use the tools properly or cut my cuticles or attempt to remove calluses. It was honestly shocking at how bad this was. I then asked if someone could else could finish my pedicure. The women who did finished did a way better job and completed the pedicure. I hope this salon improves, it use to be a good place to get nails done.

T. Roth I am officially done with this despicable salon! Please read all the way through to save yourself grief, time, your hard earned money, and potentially harmful chemicals from your body. I have been going here off and on since moving to Petaluma nine years, and I am officially done with these deceitful and unprofessional people. I kept myself from posting negative reviews up until now because I believed in them and really thought they were good people especially the owners Theresa and co-owner Lam. Originally, I was getting my nails done with Lam part owner and ex son in law. Lam always did my nails quickly and exactly in the flared shape that I liked. My nails lasted 4 weeks. I had no complaints with him until the day I decided to change the shape and go slightly oval, a completely different look for me. When he was finished my nails they looked like “bird claws”and truly made me laugh out loud! I politely asked him to change it back by filing them more square because the look was not for me. He filed them back to the shape I liked, I paid him over the top in tip as I always had and left on pleasant terms. The next month when I made an appointment with him, I came to the salon only to be greeted outside by the former receptionist Lisa. She appeared anxious and nervous and said Lam refused to take me and would never work on me again. I was shocked and stunned! When I asked her why he agreed to make me an appointment she had no answer. I became very upset and asked that he come and explain himself, and she said he refused to talk to me ever again. As a co-owner of the Salon, I found his demeanor to be extremely unprofessional, cowardly, and immature. I was left scrambling to find another nail salon on a whim. It was a very stressful and hurtful situation for me. Against everybody’s advice, I decided to go back and work with Theresa the owner despite everyone telling me to never give them my business as what they did to me was beyond unprofessional. Although Theresa has always been kind to me, the quality of her work speaks differently. Each time I have gone to Theresa for the past year, my nails have lifted within one to two weeks. I typically go four weeks anywhere else with no problems. It appears since the pandemic there are using cheap acrylic because my nails constantly lift after just one week and come off. I do not use excessive water nor abuse my nails. I also find my skin itching constantly each time I get my nails done here indicating that their products are of cheap quality and probably contain toxic chemicals. I never experience these symptoms anywhere else and I have been getting my nails done for the past 30 years with no issue whatsoever. After giving them one more try last week with a new technician Lynn, as expected all my nails started lifting and breaking one by one less than two weeks of having paid $70 of getting a fill. I contacted the salon and Lam answered and got me back in today to have them fixed by Lynn the same technician that had done my fill list two weeks ago. Mind you I had already done back last week and fixed 3 lifting and broken nails with Theresa. I told Lam and Theresa that I would be expecting a full set this time and not paying! Theresa agreed and said no problem and I went back today. I sat at the salon from 1 PM till 245 and had Lynn provide a full set. I was gracious to her and left her a $20 bill and walked out. I was talking to another customer outside when Lynn chased me outside, screaming and shouting in front of everyone saying that I didn’t pay for my service and to get back into the salon right now as she angrily pointed her finger and treated me like a thief! I walked back in and noticed everyone staring at me and I calmly explained that this was my 3rd time in within the last two weeks and that Theresa and Lam had told me to come back and that I would not be charged. She proceeded to yell louder and louder and said I owed $70 that she has been working on me for the last two hours! I told her that’s not what I was told by Theresa! Now I have ringworm too! NEVER AGAIN!

willow hofmann I love Bella Femme. The only place I ever go. I’ve never been disappointed with service or products. They’re very patient with my common changing my mind a bunch of times before finally committing to color. I usually get acrylics but I’m going soon to try gel on natural and I just don’t trust anyone else.
