Best Nail Salons In Oakland

“Anna is delightful and a great nail artist. I get hard gel and she keeps it thin and I love the shape“

“Just had a pedicure and Dat did an excellent job. His attention to detail was fantastic, I’ll definitely be back!“

“Found my nail salon home and I can’t believe it’s been nearby where I live this whole time. I’ve gone to Lan I think 3-4 times now for my fills and she hasn’t disappointed me yet and usually I’d pay around $70 for designs at other salons but the prices have been so reasonable! Nail Today has me as a loyal customer“

“Life-changing!! I regret getting waxed for so many years. Sugaring was significantly less painful, much gentler on my sensitive skin, and the results were great. Rasheedah is clearly highly skilled and knowledgeable. She talked me through the entire process, answered my questions, and made me feel comfortable. So glad to have found her & highly recommend!“

“First time getting a manicure here and I can’t tell that your nails will feel so good!!
The products they use are definitely 100% natural! I have done gel manicure before in other places and days later I had the feeling to wanting to get rid off the gel because it felt so heavy!! But coming here to Natural Nails is the best choice!! 10/10 recommended!!“

“I had an incredible experience at Peony Nail Spa in Berkeley on Telegraph! They offered a super generous gel pedicure giveaway, just in time for Mother’s Day. Everyone was so kind, and the woman who did my nails was not only friendly but also quick and precise—top-notch quality! If I didn’t live so far away this would absolutely be my go-to spot. I can’t recommend them enough!“

“Amazing nail spa! Just moved into the neighborhood and was looking for a new salon, I walk past here every day on my way to the gym and always sensed wonderful vibes from it. Decided to come in and check it out and I’m so happy I did! Calm serene vibes, comfortable chairs, kind helpful thoughtful staff, great hand and foot massages with the mani pedi. Offered some nice herbal tea to finish it off. Very lovely and will most definitely be coming back every time!“

“lili was so amazing!! My toes grow in rlly thick and she was able to grind them down and make them so smooth! I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a pedicure that was so detailed and left me looking so refreshed!! Thank uuu:)“

“this is a no frills nail salon that was open bright & early on a sunday. the small but tidy place had a parade of regular customers. the friendly nail technicians meticulously cleaned cuticles and nail beds and made sure gel polish for both mani & pedi were flawless. if you’re looking for a solid & modest nail place to get the job done well, this is it.“

“It’s a nice salon with nice ladies. Book in advance for an appointment. They are professional and kind. The area is really cute too! My nails always look beautiful after they are done.“

“Lovely experience! They took their time and made sure my nails were well taken care of. I feel so relaxed and refreshed after that! Thank you again! See you next time ?✨️

“I got my haircut by Leslie and it’s the best haircut I’ve had in recent memory.

I gave her a general vibe and she got it exactly right, the bangs are perfect, my hair sits great in a clip, looks great with a simple blow dry, and it’s exactly as I want it when I curl my hair.“

“I got my hair done by Lauren for my wedding, and I loved it. She prioritized my wishes to have minimal product, and still made my hair very beautiful and secure. She is really kind and great to work with, and I highly recommend Lauren.“

“Came back to this place after wanting to find something closer to where I lived but I moved and am happy to be back in the area.

Looked for a nail shop that could do non basic nail art and was very pleased with the photos I saw. I came in with an inspo photo and another photo I saw in their google reviews and left very pleased. I made an appointment the morning of with Megan. She asked me many questions along the way to make sure I was satisfied with the shape, the color, the placement of the design.

The shop is spacious, clean, well decorated, all the staff are attentive, and patient. Clean bathroom and nice waiting area.

I went back to get my gel extentions taken off and there is no damage to my nail! The young man that took off my extensions checked in with me many times to make sure I was comfortable which I appreciated.

Definitly will be coming back!“

“The salon is clean and is pleasing to the eye. The staff members take the time to understand your preferences and tailor the service accordingly. Fantastic job and good service. Finally found a place to get my nails done again. I recommend Divine Nails 100% I got a fancier set than normal and the prices are always reasonable.“

“Best pedicure I’ve gotten in a while. The woman was very thorough (I even fell asleep on the chair) and my nails look amazing. This will be my regular shop from now on.“

“I love this place. I mostly get pedicures. So relaxing and my feet look good for weeks.

But the best - facial! So gentle, kind, relaxing and I look so fresh and bright afterwards.“

“Cleanliness: The shop is immaculate, and the pedicurist and manicurist both wore masks. The services rendered were great. Anna is the owner who did my acrylic with gel nail polish and Dana did my pedicure.“

“No frills nail salon, a bit more old school as they dont have the newest/trendiest products but they have regular nail polish + gel + dip + acrylic + gel X. Really enjoyed my gel manicure today and I think they did a solid job. The only man manicurist there was damn quick and shaped my nails to a perfect almond shape. I want that uncle for my next appt! Minus 1 star as I dont think they sterilize their equipment between usage and the UV light machine has no sensor so I had to keep reminding the lady to turn on the light so that my nails can cure.“

“Pink perfection.. Thank you Oanh’s
nails. This set is perfect full set w/ gel & pedicure w/ gel. #684RoseTulip“

“I walked in for a mani pedi after getting an IV drip down the street. Literally just googled for nail spas and this was the second place I checked.

My nail tech was easy to communicate with and even helped me decide on colors and style. I ended up doing a modified French with shades of green and blue which came out perfect (and turned out to be black light reactive which delighted my inner party kid lol).

I was impressed at how skillfully she painted the tips. She got it right the first time and didn’t need to go back with acetone to fix it like they often do. The whole thing was anxiety free and my nails/cuticles still look perfect after 2 weeks. Usually my cuticles are a hot mess within a day or two or I have to file them to straighten out sloppy work.

Even though there are over a dozen nail salons within walking distance to my house, I’ll be making the drive over to Montclair for this place!“

“All!!!! I receive all services at Le Visage & love the staff!! I feel like I'm a part of the family! Marlene is amazing! I've been a client of hers for years & look forward to my appointment!!!!! A thousand stars for Le Visage!“

“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my engagement nails ?✨

From the moment I walked in, they made me feel so special and taken care of. They truly took their time with every single detail. Nothing felt rushed, and you could tell they genuinely cared about making everything perfect. Every shape, every layer, every tiny adjustment was done with so much precision and intention.

What meant the most to me was how thoughtful they were throughout the entire process. They knew this was for such an important moment in my life and treated it that way. It did not feel like just another appointment. It felt like a whole experience.

I left feeling so confident, excited, and honestly a little emotional because my nails turned out exactly how I envisioned, if not better. I will always remember getting my engagement nails done here ?

If you are looking for a place that goes above and beyond and truly cares, this is it.“

“This salon is truly amazing—not only because of their incredible talent, but also because of how kind and caring everyone is. My four-year-old wanted to have her nails done for her birthday, and she was definitely acting like a typical four-year-old! The nail artist was so patient, gentle, and sweet with her, making the experience extra special.

On top of that, they did a fantastic job on my manicure and pedicure. Thank you for the wonderful service and for taking such great care of my family. We truly appreciate it and look forward to coming back!“

“Michelle is no longer working here and has opened her own salon called Glowli Health & Beauty on Piedmont Ave in Oakland. I am so glad I was able to find her because she has been my waxer for years.“
