I started getting my dip done here a few months ago. Aaron is the best nail technician I have seen in years. I have gone to 3 other places in Redwood City and none of them even come close. He is very meticulous and detail oriented. If you’re careful enough to have thinner dip, he can do that. If you’re super hard on your hands (like me) he can do them thicker while still making them look amazing. No weird thick spots, still thinner at the cuticle, very smooth, and all around excellent shaping. He is also gentle and regularly checks in with you to make sure the Dremel isn’t too hot when removing the old dip. No cuts. No pain. I can get about 3 weeks out of my nails... read full review

Credit card fee *** cash tips preferred ! My friend and I came in on a Thursday evening with no appointment. We were quickly seated in massage chairs and given waters. We got the gel ($55+) and regular ($37+) pedicures. All pedicures come standard with a hot stone massage which feels so nice! Regular pedicure you'll get the stone massage before polish and gel one you'll get after your toes are painted. There is plenty of selection of polishes and the staff is friendly. Typical downtown parking. You mess up your regular pedi up to an hour after painting we were warned. As we were leaving

Pros:Aaron was great - attentive and gentle. He didn't rush through my acrylic tips but delicately crafted. He was responsive when I pointed out anything that was wrong and solved it quickly, friendly without complaining. When he saw something not right he removed and fixed. I'm happy with the results and experience.Cons: extra to remove cuticles didn't sit right with me and it isn't called out on the price list. Creating a clean nail bed should be foundational to the process. This is usually my experience with great nail techs.
