About Beauty Nails

This use to be my favorite nail spot. Until the owner became the most rude person ever. Since they had done a good job so far, I thought I would try a design. She completely messed up, and refused to fix it. Rolled her eyes and started speaking in with her coworkers In her own language. Which I don’t mind, but it’s rude specially when you make it clear that your talking about the client infront of you. What a shame? I thought I had found my go to spot.

I usually get my nails done in SF but didn’t feel like driving out there just to get my toes done. Found this nail shop on Unilocal and most reviews were positive so I decided to give them a shot. Called in 20 minutes before to make sure they weren’t busy. Came right in and picked a color and sat in the spa chair. The lady barely spoke English but did a great job on my feet. She massaged my feet about 5 mins per foot. It felt amazing. When I get my feet done I am really picky and she was able to listen to what I had to say and do my toes exactly how I asked. I will be coming back to her for sure.

Where is the negative star when you need one? I’ve been coming to this shop for Years! Lisa poached me from another shop because she does good eyebrows. But the prices jumped from $ 20 to $ 28 for a mani/​pedi all the while, the service and quality has gone Way Way down. Spa chairs dont work, and they never just give you the sea salt that «comes» with the spa pedicure. There is always a new nail technician, who doesn’t know what they are doing. I recently got a full set, on a Friday, the girl couldn’t shape them correctly and by Monday, they were chipping and lifting. I informed Lisa, she acted cool, come in we will fix. I get there at the ageeed upon time, and she tries to gave someone else who is new fix my nails and wants me to wait. Unacceptable, what’s the point of an appoinment? This shop does not appreciate customer loyalty and will never see another $ of my hard earned money.

Omg this is worst nail place ever
Lisa yelling on top of her voice at her employees, she treat them like slaves
Lisa needs to treat her customers well she kiss ass for those who give her lots of tip
She is miserable woman
Before u go there think twice its nasty and worst place
All talking in there fucken language learn English you in America now
This place needs 0 stars

The best nail shop in the Bay Area. I have been a customer for over 10 years. This is a family establishment and when you walk in you are immediately greeted and treated like family. The shop is super clean and the pedicure tub is spotless. They use quality products and they have OPI polish. I have gel nails and I have never had them crack or chip. Lisa is the owner and ensures that you have a pleasant experience. She supervises her staff to make sure you receive outstanding service. Lisa also does the best eyebrows. I won’t go anywhere else for my nails, feet and brows. ONE STOP SHOP!! I have always received superb service. My mother is hard of hearing and receives attentive service. They treat her like a queen. If you want to have fabulous nails and fresh pedicures stop by About Beauty.

Came here to get my nails done with my sister and a friend, walked in and waited for ¹⁰⁄₁₅ mins, was deciding what I wanted to get while my sister wanted French tip and our friend wanted eyebrows wax, not a problem! So anyway the owner name Lisa I believe approach us and ask us what we wanted to get and we explained, at this time I already decided French tip as well, so she did my sister’s while her nephew did mines before he got started I asked Lisa if she had told him what I wanted she said yes I did I said okay so thinking I was going to get french tip until he kept asking what color? I said no color French tip he said 3 $ more I said okay yeah French tip! 5 mins later again what color I said french tip. he said okay. sooo another min later what Color? In my mind Im like F***! So after he was done he told me to go to Lisa and she will Finish my nails I said okay. hmm werid.. So I walked to Lisa as she was finishing my sister’s nails and my sister was absolutely loving hers. I was saddened because I wanted the same but didn’t happen that way so i started looking for a color for my acrylic and saw lavender and decided I would go with lavender, as lisa was painting my nails I told her this. Wasn’t what I wanted I wanted French tip and she said «I know I told him» and said something in Vietnamese and full set” to the guy who did my nails I’m assuming and she apologized to Me more than once which I appreciate cause some places won’t even apologized… so as i was drying my nails I seriously didn’t like it and ask lisa if she would change my color and paint on white tip and she said she would but its really busy which I understand it was busy, so I left it like that and learn to love it because its first time for everything right? Like my sister said lol 3 stars for Lisa for apologizing to me for her coworkers mistake its not what I wanted but its not bad looking either ;)

Got a mani/​pedi and brow waxing for the first and last time here. It was more expensive than some places I’ve gone to on grand ave and Piedmont ave. I left with polish that chipped a day later, a toe cuticle that mildly bled at the shop and stung for days after, and brows that thinned unevenly on both sides. I’ve never had such an experience before. I’m giving them an extra star for effort and friendliness, but that’s not enough to get me to come back.

I’m sorry to say, my experience, first time, was incredibly sub par.
Synopsys; walk in and ask for a mani /​pedi… am told «5 – 10 minutes»… I walk outside to make a call.
walk Back in, and the guy now tells me «5−10 mins… someone was waiting before you»
so now I am about 20 minutes in the waiting game, hoping it will be worth it…
…when my Luke warm door bath is ready, I wait another «TEN» minutes while the water become completely cold!
in addition to that, WAS NEVER Offered the massage that comes with the chair… after a few minutes in, sad, cold and incredibly disappointed, I make mention a few times of the Bleeding from my cuticle and never had the Manicure I was promised.
on I got up to pay, they asked only Once about the Mani, I said no thank you and how I was very unhappy with the service, or Lack thereof .
Apologies never made, nothing to Correct the botched job… not to mention then lady doing the pedicure was completely Oblivious to my cues and Words to address said mishaps.
so very sad as I needed both and also a new Salon… of which, I will NOT be patronizing in the future.

This is the first time I’ve gotten a manicure and left with glue on my finger. This was just a gel manicure by the way. No acrylics, no tips… Just a gel manicure.
If you’re looking for an uneven, streaky manicure, this is a great place for you.
However, there is Lisa who works (and I’m assuming owns) the place. She is pretty much a brow wizard. She did my brows quickly and evenly. All while talking on the phone. I can’t even talk on the phone while crossing the street, so, that was pretty impressive.

Typical nail salon. Plenty of chairs/​techs, so I didn’t have to wait for service. Pedi cost $ 15, mani $ 10, and gel mani costs $ 25.

Went here today for one of my first ever manicure and pedicures. It was great and the women were very friendly. The only other time I have ever gotten a manicure/​pedicure was when my partners sister got married. I live close so I will definitely come back here again.

I really like this place because I can get everything done here. Nails and eyebrows. Lisa owns the shop and her son works there They both do great work. They also do a great job of keeping up with the trends. Parking can be tough, but Lisa will tell you where to park so you don’t get a ticket.

i came in the other day for a pedicure. let’s just say, it wasn’t bad and it wasn’t the greatest but it was just ok. i wish the lady that was giving me a pedicure had done a better job scrubbing my foot better because afterwards, i notice i still had that ashy look on my heels and dry skin.
do not let anyone but lisa do your eye brows here! one of the workers f****** up my brows & my sister!!! only allow lisa to do your brows unless you want two different shape brows!!!
lisa does the best brows with one stroke she can give you that nice arch! lisa lisa lisa! remember lisa only!!!

i love Eric to death, if he knew how to do funky trendy nail designs I would love him more… alas he does not but, I love my pointy tips but i have to do the designs myself. I think if Im payng 50+ for nails and pedicures my gel shouldnt crack within the first two hours. I saw soo many cracks that i am reconsiderig whether or not I will return here. Other than that Eric and Lisa are cool just wish he was a lil bit more current with nail designs.

i don’t go there enough to be a regular, but i know who the regulars are because the staff knows them by name. it’s like a family in there. They ask how their clients moms are, and ask about the latest update on their lives. There seems to be very little gossip, even though i don’t speak Vietnamese, I can easily tell they are talking about other things.
I’ve gotten longer lasting, and better pedicures, but for the price and convenience, I will go back, plus they’ve also taken care of my calluses — which not all places will do for you! I’ve never had trouble with my acrylic sets. I like the fact that they have more than one person that knows how to do acrylic! so you get in and out of there in a reasonable amount of time.

Absolutely great nail shop. Lisa does the best eyebrows ! The service is always professional, and the workers are so kind ! I‘d have to recommend Eric for the best nails, he‘s wonderful and always interacts. They give you what you pay for: QUALITY SERVICE ! (:

I love this nail shop I’ve been coming for three years and can’t no one does my nails like they do! Eric and Lisa are the best but so are the other staff!, I love the way my eyebrows are done and my nails are always perfect no matter the request! The prices are reasonable and always worth it! It has a nice atmosphere! :)

I do like getting mani/​pedis here. There is a young lady who does mine all the time and she gets my french tips perfect.
I would not get anything done with acrylic/​gel nails. I’ve been disappointed each time I’ve had their fake nail services.
The owner is nice and friendly and will go out of her way to ensure that you, the customer, leave happy if you speak up and let her know you’re dissatisfied with your service. She offered to redo my full set of gel nails after one of the nail techs botched them.
