Nails & Spa

Ummmm first I just need to say that they use the same wax for everyone, they literally dip your foot in it a few times and let it sit, like it doesn’t come in its own bag. IT HAS HAD OTHER PEOPLES FEET IN IT!!! wtf is going on!!! Freakin sick… the pedicure was half ass, nothing to rave about, I would definitely consider your options before coming here. I feel grimy after that wax YUCK!!! I had planned on doing gel on my toes but do to the fact they use their wax repeatedly i doubt the gel would be applied right… rather not chance it. To top it off my sister in law made us appointments and they literally have ONE person doing acrylic nails here and he is going from one person to another. 3 different people. She specifically asked to get them done at the same time and they said yes. No one wants to be waiting hours even after an appointment was made… my feet are scratchy on the bottom so that sucks.

This was a great experience, Tina and her husband are expert artisans and do a great job! For a gel polish with powder fill, they soak off the old layers which really gives a clean look for the new powder and gel, leaving a thin but strong base for any colors you would like. They have a spectacular assortment of finishes to chose from. Everything always clean and tidy. The atmosphere is relaxed and you will be too, after your experience here. In my opinion the largest and most relaxed nail spa in Redding. Walk-​ins welcome!

Always leave with a great job done. about the cost of any nail place, but clean spacious and friendly staff!

Vaughn and his team are great! I used to just expect bad service and rude people barely talking to me while I get my nails done but everyone here have been very kind, friendly and polite. They make eye contact with you and thank you for coming in every time. I usually get gel nail polish but I’ve also done acrylic and I’ve never had any problems with it. I highly recommend them.

Bad experience. The guy was rushed and couldn’t understand English.

Very clean, very reasonable prices. I always come in without an appointment and they are welcoming and don’t seem put out at all. The previous reviews about cleanliness of the tools have made me weary, but I’ve came here for a year and never had any issues. I will come back.

Friendly and quick service. My sister and I didn’t have appointments and probably waited fifteen minutes. No problem.
We both got manicure/​pedicures, my pedicure turned out fine but the manicure is one of the worst I’ve ever received. Portions of my nails weren’t polished, very uneven and inconsistent.

I called for an appt for my 13 yr old daughter, mani and pedi and was quoted 37.50. I thought this was fine. I stated that we had our own polish. When we arrived for her apt we waited for 15 mnts past our appt. When a man finally said she could go back, I stated that we had our own Gel Polish (brand new bottle with top coat) He stated that there would be additional charge for the gel. I stated that again we had our own, he said that because of gel, he would still have to charge more even though we had our own. He stated that an additional $ 40.00 (yes, forty dollars) would be charged. He said more prep/​filing of the nails along with special drying is required for gel nail polish. Having just bought a new bottle of gel and gel top coat, I read the directions & they stated 2 coats of polish and 1 coat of top coat. no and I repeat no different than reg polish required. The only diff was that regular light, sun or artificial for drying, no light or air machines required. Oh and the polish will last 14 days. The top coat is what does the special drying not anything he felt he had to do also no and I repeat no special application has to be done for gel nail polish and top coat. I told the whole store that he was over charging and lying about the product application and left stating that I would find a reputable nail salon for my business. This was my first and only time I would use this business. Please be careful because they make up special applications that are not required just so that they can over charge customers. Also the salon was very warm and the ventilation not adequate.

Loved this salon! Came up to visit from sac and wanted to take my mother in law for her first pedicure! They were so nice and took their time to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. Gel manicure, regular manicure, 2 full amazing pedicures plus an eyebrow wax for 102 $! Not too bad if you ask me! Must go

My sister, daughter and I stopped into Nails & Spa for mani/pedi’s (Thankfully we passed on the waxing.) 2 of the 3 technicians did an ok job on the pedi’s, very average (I would not be Unilocaling a review had pedi’s been our only service) Problems started with the complete unprofessional service of the young man who worked on all three of us girls at the same time– salon was not busy at the time and plenty of tech’s sitting around.
First, I’ve never had gel polish removed with a sander (I should have advocated for us then and requested polish remover & foil)
He asked if I wanted nails filed down a bit (so nails would be closer in length) yes,
However tech re-​shaped nails, and was very gruff upon finishing with each hand, he firmly pushed hand back which was so off putting!
All of this poor quality service while hopping from me, to sister and daughter!!!
Oops– forgot to mention that a lady actually finished our nails, painting the top coat!!!
Uneventful salon, definitely not a relaxing environment, extremely poor service!!!
The 2 stars are strictly for tech’s that did pedicure (which had that been only experience I still would not return for lack of service, environment and average pedi)
There are so many quality salons to choose from that give great service and experience I would recommend that you stay away from this salon!!!

First time I went and got a gel manicure and it didn’t turn out at all how I wanted. So I went in the next day and they fixed my nails for me for free and were super nice about it. I’ve always just had pedicures from here — they always turn out good. They told me that if any customers are unhappy with how their nails turn out they’ll always fix them. Most places I’ve had a hard time with that, they want to recharge me to redo them. So I was really happy they gave me what I wanted free of charge.

I’m particular about my nails but officially got the best mani I’ve ever had today.
I had a French manicure and Tina did it exactly the way I wanted. She’s the real thing. I barely had to say a word and she immediately got it. So quick and knows exactly what she’s doing. I did errands after and told almost every woman I saw. Gladly would’ve paid three times what they charge.

A girls day out & we each got a pedi at this place. One of the girls was horrified by the lack of cleanliness by one of the male manicurist. She asked if they auto clave their tools. Working in a doctors office she was familiar with the sterilization of equip. She noticed the tools did not look like they’d been sterilized. This guy was using the cuticle clipper on her & stopped to pick his own blistering scab on his hands. she told him «stop! That’s gross! You need to wash your hands! His scabs were actually bleeding and then wanted to continue working in her cuticles with the same clipper!!! We suspect they reuse the paraffin wax too by just dropping what they take off your feet back into the vat of hot wax. Yuck yuck yuck!
Horrible place — not clean and and not sanitary. Won’t go there again

Took my girl so she could get her nails done. Didn’t have an appointment and was serviced quickly. the prices being lower than I’m used to paying she got a European pedicure, hot oil manicure and some face wax. She really enjoyed the treatment here and if she’s happy I’m happy… she convinced me to get a pedicure and manicure and they did a good job. I work in the automotive industry and my hands are rough… After having a wonderful treatment here my girl says my hands and feet are very soft and smooth… that’s the business. .I’d recommend this to my friends that take care of their body.

Tried this place today. I just wanted a nail design. I asked how much they would charge me she clearly stated $ 7 to do all of my art. I gave her a $ 10 bill and she never changed me. I know… what’s $ 3? It’s simply the principle. at least change me and allow me to leave a tip. Very tacky and of course never again. Also try posting a menu board to list prices and services for your customers. Also speak in english if possible because I could have sworn the other gentlemen working said something in his language purposely so that I wouldn’t recognize what he was saying. So not nice and obvious.

Filthy.
Dirty.
Loud.
BEWARE! They don’t clean and disinfect ANYTHING between customers. Dirt and grime all over not just the tools and implements, but on the stations, the floors, even the employees. I was in a hurry to get out of town and couldn’t get in to see my regular nail girl, so I dropped in on good faith from positive Unilocal reviews and had one of the most horrifying nail salon experiences of my life. This place goes beyond the «chop shop» scenario. You are literally on a conveyer belt, being passed around from one technician to another, no one ever washes their hands, tools are being passed around. One of the three people to work on me had the nastiest nails on their hands I have ever seen on a person that wasn’t living on the streets. How can anyone entrust the care of their hands and feet to a person who cannot take care of their own?! Gross. Simply disgusting. I came home and soaked my hands and feet in bleach. I do not recommend this establishment to anyone.

Great relaxing service! I have had many a disappointing pedicures in Redding, and even some average experiences. This was my first trip to Nails & Spa, and I went on a Saturday afternoon, no appointment, with my mom. The attendants were warm and friendly, the place was clean and well kept, and we received long, relaxing service. I appreciated that they made conversation with us, and spent their time regulating pressure and work to our comfort. I would not go anywhere else after this experience.

This place is so clean. SO FRESH AND SO CLEAN CLEAN.
That’s right, I just quoted Outkast in my Unilocal review.
Anyways, this place is clean. The people running the joint are nice. Everything looks brand new and pretty and there aren’t any of those circa 1980’s nails posters. Y’all know which posters I am talking about. Everything was new and pretty and up to date.
I got the paraffin dip, which was awesome, but they didn’t even let it cool before taking it off. You gotta let that stuff do it’s magic.
My only suggestion would be to organize the nail color wall (at least as well as you can) and to get more OPI colors.

This place is great for manicure’s & pedicure’s. The staff is very friendly & professional. I have been here a few times, & not once has a manicurist ignored me to answer their cellphone. Other manicurists even say hello as they walk past.
For an inexpensive nail salon, the employees have excellent customer service and are sincerely nice. They always do a great job.
It is located in a strip mall with a Chuck E Cheese, Yaks, Sweetspot etc.

Not a big fancy salon but they offer great service. Clean, friendly, quick and at $ 25 for a good pedicure is a big plus!
One of the only downsides to me is the parking situation in the afternoon. Saturday mornings are a great time to go in. Best to make an appointment but you can also walk in.
Definitely a fan and regular customer.
