Finally found some of the best nail professionals in SF! 25 years I’ve visited more nail salons than I count, and Joann and her team are incredible. My nails have never looked so good and feel healthy!
First visit to this place, as they were open late and I needed a last-minute mani/pedi. I didn’t have high expectations. The woman who did my nails was super nice, and added some glitter even though I didn’t ask for it. The reason I’m writing this review though is because since then (nearly two weeks ago), I have: run an ultramarathon, gone to Burning Man, and done lots of manual labor, and my nails still have not chipped at all! (Regular polish too, not gel). I don’t know what kind of magic she worked on my nails, but after all that they still look great and I’m officially impressed! I will be back for sure.
I got a pedicure and honestly, it was super basic. Just picked a color and they did my feet—nothing special, pretty much like any other place. It definitely didn’t feel worth the $63 plus tip. I could’ve done my toes at home, and now I’m kinda regretting not doing that, especially since I was expecting more from that place.
