“Went to Demi for the first time on a whim and think I’m going to be a permanent client 🥰 I was looking for a hygienic and sanitary nail place after my usual one started getting sloppy and dirty. I was so impressed by how clean and organized she kept her place. She also uses one time use tools to avoid cross contamination. I got a gel manicure and it never peeled back or chipped. I dont know what type of polish or technique she uses but its STRONG stuff!

Besides her amazing quality of work, she is also a kind and gentle person that will make you feel safe and comfy at her salon like a friend. You can tell she is working hard to run her self employed business to support her family. She really cares about making sure everything is perfect and highly recommend giving her your business 🩷“

“I’ve been going to Jillian for years now. Much less frequently than I should because I am horrible at upkeep and maintenance. Nevertheless every time I do go Jillian does a fantastic job. We’ve done shorter bobs, longer layers, highlights. Everything that Jillian has done to my hair has looked great, received loads of compliments and lasted looking well way longer than expected. I have coarse curly hair and she’s been absolutely amazing with it.“

“I had an incredibly relaxing experience! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and my masseuse's technique was superb, perfectly relieving the tension in my shoulders. The clean, quiet, and comfortable environment made the whole experience even more enjoyable. It's perfect for busy working professionals. The price matched the quality of service, and I felt refreshed when I left. I will definitely be back at Alameda next time I'm in the area! Five stars, well-deserved!“

“This place is an absolute hidden gem. The staff is genuinely lovely, warm, and always welcoming walk-ins with a big smile. Highly recommended!“

“This was first time at this nail salon and definitely not the last. I was so pleased with how my nails turned out. I showed the nail tech 2 inspo photos and asked her to be creative and she’s clearly talented. I’m in love with my nails. She was very diligent and patient with her technique. Can’t wait to go back.“

“I have been a loyal customer of Nancy's salon for close to 20 years. Sophia is my regular manicure/pedicurist and she does a marvelous job. When Sophia is on vacation I go to Nancy or Lily both of whom are excellent. I am more than satisfied with Nancy's Salon and am very grateful to Nancy and her wonderful staff.“

“Living near the Bay has ramped up my hair curl more than it ever used to, but I honestly didn’t know how to work with it. I went into this Alameda salon for a simple trim focused on my natural texture, and it ended up feeling like real self-care rather than just a haircut.

Jennifer and her daughter Maya (who does the shampooing and “noodling”) were both calm, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. They used clean, low-tox products that actually worked with my curls—no heaviness, no damage, just soft, bouncy definition that still felt like my hair. They also took the time to explain what they were doing and shared practical at-home tips, including a non-wash-day refresher routine that feels doable.
The space itself is cozy and thoughtful—fresh tea, flavored water, little candies up front—and there’s even a sweet chihuahua mix (Nina) who’ll curl up in your lap if you’re open to it. It felt unhurried and genuinely caring.

I only wish I could budget getting my hair washed and “noodled” more often. If you’re in the East Bay and have natural curls—or you’re just looking for low-tox products that actually perform—this place is a quiet little gem.“

“Great place to get a men's haircut. Loi gets the job done. Been going here for years. Nice local business.“

“Awaken Lash is a very professional and well ran lash business that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for lashes in the East Bay. I have been a consistent customer for over a year and have had about 20 past appointments to speak to. Every single time it has been a pleasure! Not only does she do quality work, she is punctual, communicates clearly, is open to making adjustments and knows her industry well. Awaken is in a nice building with easy parking and has great amenities like clean restrooms and extra comfortable lash bed. Treat yourself to low maintenance lashes today!“

“I got a perm done by Nelly! She took great care of me and walked me through the whole process of what it is like to have permed hair. She was very knowledgeable in how to properly care for it and she gave me all the tips I needed to know! Nelly gave my hair layers and a trim then we proceeded to get the perm done. It came out great and it looks very close to the reference photos I showed her! I would most definitely recommend ⭐️“
