Top Best 9 Nail Salons in South Lake Tahoe, El Dorado (part 2)

Ali My friend and I walked in at 530pm and they were able to accommodate us with two full sets of nails. My friends got dip and I got gel extensions refill. They did so good !!

Taylor Gielow Although the pedicures are good, they have never been on time once in 4+ years of continuously going here, with appointments booked every time. No walk-ins available. Unless it is absolutely necessary, would not recommend.

Sand Sandee did an incredible job! My nails were in rough shape and she pulled off a miracle for my wedding. She really made my nails beautiful. Thank you, Sandee!

Sarah Balasanian Local and convenient. This place does great nails. Prices are normal for the area. I keep going back because they do a great job. Gel manicure is my favorite. They do such a nice job cleaning the cuticles and they even massage the hands afterwards.

artgirl3001 Every year I do something like this to treat myself on vacation. This massage was a little pricier than I normally spend on myself literally ever but I thought it will be so worth it and will be the best massage of my life. Ive had a very rough year so I wanted to treat myself. Ive gotten a lot of different massages at a lot of different places. So Im not newbie. I specifically requested a guy because I wanted more pressure and a deep tissue massage. It was so disappointing. Literally the worst massage of my life. The guy looked young so I dont know if he didnt have any training or what. So I figured no big deal Ill just let them know how I feel about my massage with a lower tip. The guy needs a new profession because massage therapist is just not for him I can tell you that. But turns out a 22% gratuity is automatically added against your will so you cant even adjust based on service. On the flipside my facial was great even if they did upcharge me but at least that service was worth the money and my skin felt great after. Id avoid this place and go somewhere else

Brooke Seaney We had such a relaxing couples massage. A glass of champagne to start was lovely. The jacuzzi was closed and for that they threw in a free foot scrub and scalp treatment. The amenities were amazing and we stayed the full hour afterwards to enjoy them. It’s a little pricey but we went during our honeymoon and it was entirely worth it.

Mia Voss The spa is located on the 2nd Floor at the Lodge at Edgewood Tahoe. I love how its set back and not in a high traffic area of the hotel. I had a 50 minute Purifying Facial - heres the menu description: "Utilizing powerful probiotics, Eminence has created a safe and effective regiment that deeply cleans skin, while improving acne and texture, leaving you with a fresh complexion." There is a 80 minute option as well - if you have the time & budget, I suggest go for the longer treatment! (i say go for any longer option, personally). My treatment was so relaxing that I slept through half of it but my treatment provider was amazing - I was so relaxed, I forgot her name! I had to rush to another appointment after my treatment (sad face) so I missed the opportunity to "Sip & Spa" which is an area which is where you "recover" and sip bubbles. Doesnt that sound amazing?! One of my favorite parts is the lounge area. Its co-ed and located right off the dressing rooms. Its super spacious, Instagram-worthy and has a unique view of the front of the hotel & driveway. You can see everything but yet you dont feel "on display". The hot tub is a super nice touch before & after treatment. The Womens & Mens areas each have their own steam room, showers, lockers, etc. You can easily get a treatment & then get ready to head out without having to go back to your room. The spa space is 8500 feet but it feels super cozy and you dont really bump into anyone! Definitely earmark some time for yourself at the spa if you are staying at Edgewood or book an appointment even if you are just in the area. Because.. spa treatments are always the BEST!

Tricia Barcenas My husband and I are staying at Edgewood for our honeymoon. We booked a couples massage and the entire experience was divine. From the smooth check in process, champagne to start, a great tour and assistance from Cari to our amazing massages by Liz and Pamela. We arrived early and while we waited We got in the jacuzzi, enjoyed the complimentary snacks in the co-Ed relaxing lounge which is designed spectacularly and is completely zen. They didn’t miss any details - eucalyptus mist for the shower, comfy robes and towels, flip flops that are your size, and overall spectacular customer service. Big thanks to Liz and Pamela!! HIGHLY recommend.

Taylor Lamm This masseuse made my wife feel extremely uncomfortable with here poor attitude at check in, which led to an awkward message. My wife came back to the room crying which is not what should happen when you spend double the price of other places. They discounted the rate a bit but we still paid over $300.00 for a terrible experience. Edit: Spoke with the spa manager and she is super unprofessional and trashy, to put it kindly.

J.R. Twomey Beeson I’m surprised this place doesn’t haven’t more reviews! I just left and will definitely be back whenever I’m back in town. I was able to get in as a walk in with a short wait, and I had a lovely experience! The place is clean and they offer water/tea/wine. They had a nice selection for gel and plenty of regular polish, the staff all seemed very pleasant, and I left very satisfied with my gel manicure. They seem to have regulars who they are thoughtful and friendly with, which is a good sign to me!

Jaime Haley These are my last couple sets from Leena. Shes great. You give her an inspo pic and she does it. The pride frenchies were a collab between us, and she nailed it! She keeps my acrylics thin how I like it, and Im always happy leaving her salon. Update to pics: all acrylic nails and nail art by Leena. Shes the best.

juliette dinh Very friendly staff. Michael does a a really great job on my pedicure, couldn’t be happier with the results. My daughter love her French tip!

Brooke Barton Amazing with kids! We took my almost 4 year old and they had so much fun with her. She loved it! They did great designs on all of our toes too! They fit us all in and were able to sit next to each other after a ten minute wait

Sara Jackman Lena and her staff are so nice & professional. Wonderful manicure, pedicure, and beautifully done nails. Many other services offered here as well. Very popular with local clientele, and visitors to our area. Appointments recommended on weekends or holidays.

Dana Stiles My first time going here and it was an amazing experience! Super friendly staff, reasonable price, they made room for my apt last min, and my nail technician Mari did an amazing job. My nails turned out exactly like the reference photo I showed her. I’m super happy with them!

Amy Anguiano Lindsey did a wonderful job with my nails! She takes her time shaping them. Love coming here to get my nails done.

Taylor Berwick I went here 4 times in the last week trying to get my nails done. I had them taken off and had to wait a day and come back to get gel x. Then my nails fell off almost completely twice. I eventually got them taken off and they did not give me a refund. Do not go here.

Lindsey Lewis KB Nails is a great place to get your nail done! Prices are comparable. You can make an appointment and they also take walk-ins. They are good at quoting times and not making you wait forever. Lindsay does my nails and she is wonderful, sweet and listens to what I want. Overall, I am very happy with this Nail salon.

Olivia Tyber booked a appointment and didn’t help us till an hour later and told us a price and then later charged more and one person told me to go home and file my own nails because i was too picky. and got the worst design job done and was aggressive with us and rude and cut our fingers also paid 100 for those. and hair

shauntyana corona Just left the salon with my daughter and my nails are horrible its supposed to be just a basic pink and white. First I made an appointment days ago for 9:30 a.m. when I got there only one nail tech was there. I called ahead of time and asked if they had a certain tip of nail and they said they did and it would be $70. When I got there they said they didnt have that tip because they dont use it often enough and tried to create the tip but I just opted to get square because I wanted the actual tip and not have the nail built with acrylic. They said that my daughters would be $70 with a design and at the end it was $90 for her nails. Im a local and I will never return here because they cant even be honest about their prices from the beginning or about the nail services that they actually offer. So I left unhappy and didnt want to make a scene because they had a full overbooked salon. Im editing my review to reply to the so-called nail tech that did my nails. We did not get extra long nails we came there at our appointment time and your salon was open already. My daughter got one nail with a design in acrylic flower and she has short nails as do i. The nails are uneven on both of my nails some are thick some are not I will upload a picture and I will also let everyone know to never come to your nail shop. Youre unprofessional and your work is shoddy at best. And to answer your question yes I have been to many salons around town and yours is by far the worst.

Olivia Vialau I picked the first nail shop on the list closest to me..I walked in and the shop was pretty empty I was greeted and welcomed pretty quickly which was nice. Will was my nail tech and he did not disappoint. I shared my inspo pic and what I liked. He made suggestions on colors and length and I agreed. He was very friendly and confident in himself which made me comfortable with trusting him with my nails. We made small conversation and overall I was really impressed with my nails. I wish I lived closer because I would def come back. If your looking for someone who is nice and can pull of a Pinterest inspo nail design pic ask for Will!

andy Light First I’d like to say to the lady that left a bad review you’re tripping cuz those nails look pretty good. I didn’t get my nail tech’s name but my nails look really nice and he did an amazing job and I appreciate they were able to take me as a walk in. A little more than expected but tbh the price is reasonable considering it’s an expensive area and I got designs on my nails.

Anzhela Vinnik Alright, guys. I gotta tell you, this place is very very good! I stopped by randomly after skiing for a massage. And since the massage (feet and shoulders) was amazing, I decided to get a manicure there as well. Look at this picture! I wasn’t sure they will be able to do what I was asking for, but Nahy did exactly what I wanted! She is fast, very precise with symmetry and shapes (I’m very picky when it come to all those things). Amazing work! I’m super happy and highly recommend this place for all the services they provide!

Danse Danse Wonderful experience here getting my nails done before my wedding. ❤️ Spacious, open concept, with a comfortable design; friendly and knowledgeable staff; and so many options for a relaxing mani-pedi. They squeezed me in easily and took my simple idea of what I wanted and made it amazing. My nails turned out perfect and still look great a week and several hikes later. I can’t thank you all enough for the wonderful experience.

Katie Randall I came in for a pedicure after taking a few months of taking a break from this salon because it’s so chaotic every time I come in. While in here today the owners started screaming at a poor woman who was here working from another country just trying to make money for her family. I have never seen anything like this. Employees walked out and were crying stopped doing peoples nails mid manicures. I will never give the owners my business again. This isn’t the first I’ve heard of how they treat their employees and why they go through so many employees. I hope that poor woman can find something better for employment. I have never seen anything so unprofessional and so uncomfortable in my life and I’ve been going to salons for 15 years up here

Feyza Huxford This is absolute the WORST experience with my nails ever. No manicure at all and shape not i asked for. I went with my other friend and hers is even worst than mine. Horrible customer service and rude people. Do not recommend!! Buy a glue-on set from CVS it will be better i promise.

Rimmpy Dhimaan We were three of us, two men pedicure and manicure and 1 woman pedicure , we spend 200$ plus 10$ tip for each , but for the polish that guy doesn’t know his job, he put the nail pant , because it was thin nail polish so it doesn’t comeout even i ask him if he can do third coat he did , after 15 min i ask him to check my nail polish , he came and said u can put your sandles and he messed up my nail pant while putting the sandles then he fixed it so fast it didn’t come up even , i showed him he said if u wait for 5..10 min he can put one more coat, i said no because i have to go somewhere because we are visitor we already plan ahead , i asked him he is has spray to dry it fast he has it , he spray right away when u put third coat. I mean do u even know how to put the nail paint ? It looks mad because he has to fix the nail.

rochele mcnamee Just so everyone is aware at Dazzle nails Tony just yelled at me for being undecided on a nail tip color for Easter asking his opinion before he ever applied acrylic and he got so mad because I changed my mind on the color of my index and thumb finger. He completely stopped doing my nails and I left like this. Unreal! Nancy at the Y nails saved me!!! She’s amazing!!

Julie Midori Loved the service and my nails! Super friendly and kind staff. My friend and I came in with no appointment and there was only one person and she asked if we would be ok waiting and she made us comfortable, sat us on the massage chair and treated us well. My nails turned out beautiful! She was so focused and precise, I would really recommend this place!

Robin Wilson I am in South Lake Tahoe for a few weeks and needed to fill on my acrylic nails. I popped in to see if they could fit me in. I was asked to come back in 1/2 hour. The spa in clean and very nicely kept. They did a nice job on my pink acrylics, but for some reason the woman working on me decito mix two pink colors to try and match what was used on my nails... It did not match so I suggested we paint my nails. Good job on nail shape and she was very gentle. Her ability to paint nails was very good. They dont speak very good English so it is very quiet, no small talk. Chairs are very comfortable. I would use them again.

Krista Marie I get longgg stilettos, sharp. I see Andrew for the most consistent!! & detailed work I’ve experienced in Tahoe. He’s very friendly and listens to me and always provides!!

Jackie Wanted to get nails done, I was just wasting time, for up coming trip. I read all reviews and decided since I make my own decision and not let bad or good reviews hinder me from trying some place new, I gave this Salon a shot. Plus its right across the street from where Im staying. I had a fantastic experience. Kennedy did my nails perfectly. Tried a new style of nail and new colors. I love my new set. Its only 10$ more than I would pay at home. Ill go back to them if I come back to town.

CiCi Cross Andrew is by far the best nail tech I have encountered in South Lake. He is very gentle with the tools, always listens to what I want, and is incredibly professional in his work. I go in every few weeks for a fill and am always very happy with his work. 10/10 recommend.

red_lips 1768 I went here to get my haircut as a last minute thing before going on vacation as my usual place was booked up. To begin, they cut my hair really short and thinned it a lot. I’m not really 100% mad about that, but it is a little annoying. I’m happy with how most of my hair looks, but my bangs look absolutely horrid. They’re really choppy and don’t blend well into the rest of my hair. They look like someone did a hack job and cut them with the scissors sideways. I had to get scissors and fix them myself, as they don’t blend in. Kinda disappointing since I spent over $100 :(

Jazze Hazel I was in town for my friends birthday and decided to get my nails done here at visions salon. When one of the lady’s started doing my nails she asked me what I wanted and I told her Chevron French tip coffin shape. She didn’t know how to do coffin shape and suggested I do square so I was like ok whatever even though I wanted coffin. She put on different tips because she ran out of the same tips and I did not like it and I told her that and then she said it would look better after she put the acrylic on. so I trust her and let her put the acrylic on and they made sure they charged me after she put the acrylic on. They charged me $95 for a full set that I really did not like at all so I didn’t even let them finish and put nail polish on. I left very unhappy. And didn’t get a refund or any type of apology for my nails that I think looked like they should of charged me $25. And they were being extremely rude about it. I do not recommend this place.

Jan Peeks I stayed at Harveys and called down to see if i could get ny nails painted. I didnt need a manicure or nails put on JUST POLISH! I asked if she also had time to remove toe polish and paint toenails. She did. I picked gel polish and they looked nice, nothing fancy just a nice paint job. And a nice lady that did them. Im use to spending money BUT I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I WAS CHARGED $100. I will never use the services at the salon again. Nor will I reccomend them. P.S. That was 10 days ago and all of the paint has peeled off of my fingers already.

Kathy McConville Annette talked with me before cutting my hair. She gave me exactly what I wanted and gave me great tips for styling. I was very happy with the results. I would highly recommend this salon. Annette is great!!

Erin Silvers Absolutely loved salon and all ladies worked There. Re-book another trip back Tahoe and cant wait go back!
