Cali Pronail & Spa

Went here for a manicure with my friends and I got gel polish. On the bottle it says they’re supposed to last up to 21 days but mine are peeling after 7. When the lady was getting rid of my cuticles she pretty much took a chunk out of one of my fingers. She was very apologetic and it didn’t hurt that much at first even though it wouldn’t stop bleeding, but for the next few days it was SO PAINFUL. I had to wear a bandaid and Neosporin over my pretty manicure for 3 of the 7 days that it lasted. Pretty much never going back.

What a great place to get dolled up! This was my first time getting a manicure and I got shellac. The service was great, very fast! I was probably in and out in 35 minutes and my nails were dry in 2 minutes. Planning on coming back when I need a fill and color change.

I only came to this salon because my friend who is getting married likes Anna. I’m not sure what my lady’s name was but she lied to me and told me the salon doesn’t do pink and white acrylics. So I got pink powder with a french painted on. Not what I wanted. Then she didn’t clip my nails down so my actual nail is separated from the acrylic. The best part was when I was done I walked over to my friend and watched Anna finish up her pink and white set… which I believed they didn’t do at the location thinks to my girl. Will not go back, Luxury nails in pinellas is where it’s at

My mother and I both frequent this salon. We have never had an issue there. Jenny (not sure of spelling) is great! Definitely our go-​to lady. The ventilation system they have works wonders… It’s the only nail salon I’ve been to that doesn’t smell like one. The massage chairs are great and always in order. Prices are good. I’d recommend this place for sure.

They provide solid fast polite service. I just finished a pedicure … I was in and out in 30 to 40 mins including drying time.
I am sure there are fancy upscale places out there… this place is c lean, fast, polite, bit maybe plain Jane to some.
I will come back.

The only reason I go here is because of Anna!
She does an amazing job on my nails, in 2 years there hasn’t been a time I didn’t like her work!
They are clean, but the owners are cheap. They finally after about 7 months got new chairs, and they never put out new nail colors.
The cost is crazy, the amount they charge is unreal sometimes. If it wasn’t for Anna I wouldn’t step foot in there.

Horrible horrible horrible!!! Would have given ZERO stars if possible!!! Sent our 4 girls to get their nails and toes done! Two 16 year olds a 10 year old and a 7 year old… Let’s start with the fact that my 7 year old got a pedicure the person who did her pedicure added sparkles and designs without asking anyone and then upcharged her, my 10 year old Nieces fingers are painted!!! It looks as though she spilled polish all over her hands. Our 16 year olds nails are crooked and the polish is nicked, when she asked him to fix it he said «you’re too picky» HELLO jerk that’s your job! They were made to feel stupid! We called and were also treated with great disrespect! No offer to rectify the situation! A nice day for our girls turned into a terrible experience.

I don’t usually come here. It was a girl day out with my bestie and we were at the mall for lunch and a movie. So we decided to add in a pedi.
This place is clean and had brand new chairs. I’ve been here a couple times and never had a complaint about my pedi.
Today the water was so hot about jumped out of my seat but she quickly fixed that for me. The pedi was done pretty quickly and run started the massage. It was so calming and relaxing. The lavender scent was heavenly. The massage was very good.
Her attention to detail with the nail polish was wonderful and I’m very relaxed and happy!
The chair stopped the massage too soon but I was so into the foot massage I didn’t notice until she was painting my toes.
I find it sad people only write such negative stuff how sad for them…

The woman who did my mani pedi was very pleasant and did a great job with the massage and exfoliation. She did a horrible job painting the actual nails. The paint ran off the nail and they chipped the same day. Go somewhere else.

I’ve been here upon several occasions as I work in the mall. I would like to express that a mall discount would be appreciated as my salon offers up to 20% all services for mall employees, as we are usually regulars and walking advertisement.
The first time I was here a man did my acrylics he did them completely wrong, I kept having to ask him to shorten them and when I left the underneath of the nails wasn’t filed down very well and I had to go to another salon to get them fixed.
The second time I got a pedicure and the woman I had was wonderful, she went out of her way and did an extra long massage, she adjusted my chair accordingly, she did a very good paint job, picked up my bags and walked me over to the dryer and helped me put my shoes on, the only thing is I wanted to pay with cash and credit and they told me to just pay the full amount on my credit and tip in cash but I didn’t want the whole amount to go on my card.
The third time I went I got shellac it was super quick but still relaxing and it turned out great.
And the last time I went there was on the Fourth of July to get another shellac after my last one, I went with one of my coworkers and they didn’t sit us together, I ended up getting acrylic to make the paint last longer but the whole time the lady kept cutting me with the drill and I started bleeding.
Overall I’d say it’s really a hit or miss nail salon, I like to go there because it’s convenient at work and they are open early in the morning and late at night they usually always take guests.

Never again. Had a pedicure today. There was no wait, not even full. They put me in a chair that didn’t work. I know it’s minuscule but I don’t get to treat myself to pedicures often so when I do, I appreciate being able to relax and enjoy the massaging chair. Why put me in a broken one when the place is empty? Lady was incredibly rough, caused me pain while digging her finger nails into my toes while she was polishing them. The final straw for me was when she told me scrubbing my feet is an additional $ 5. Really? That’s typically included in the price everywhere else I go. Isn’t that essentially what a pedicure is??! As she was finishing me up, her previous customer came back to have her toes touched up because the polish already smeared.
Definitely not the relaxing experience I was hoping for today. I won’t be returning.

I went here yesterday while I was shopping and I wish I hadn’t. The tech didn’t understand what I wanted when I said I wanted a shellac color from a display in the front and wouldn’t help me find a matching toe polish. She handed me samples of something else and it wasn’t what I wanted at all. Then during my pedicure, she took the mask and took such a tiny amount that instead of it being grey, it was like I had nothing on my legs and started rubbing it in. I get my nails done every 2 weeks and nobody has ever done that before. Then she took the skin she removed from my feet and put it in the water with my feet still in it when she cleaned the foot tool. The tech I had for my shellac was not much better but she was rough. She used a file to remove the old shellac and nearly cut the side of my fingers. When she applied the base coat for the shellac, she got it on the tips of my fingers, and didn’t address it. Not happy. Won’t be going back ever again. Save your money and go somewhere else.

I have been going to Cali for years and always have a great experience. It is clean, friendly and fast.

I wish i could give zero starts! Horrible manicure. The worst i ever had. The lady completely ignored my request to do a more square nail and actually did such a horrible job that one of them was a weird almost like a triagular shape! I mean, i am not complaining because it wasnt perfect. I can deal with decent. But this was awful. If you pay for someone for a service you expect them to do it better than yourself. Not the case. My 7 years old nephew could do a better job!!!

I’ve been here twice, once to get my first bio seaweed nail gel and the 2^nd to get acrylics.
My first time, a gentlemen named Sun did my nails. He was very gentle and yet quick. He was careful and I really appreciated how careful and methodical he was with painting my nails. My nails did last for a full week BUT one of my fingernails did end up bubbling by the end of the night and the gel lifted and fell off 4 days after I had it finished… which upset me. However, my nails felt healthy and the paint lasted on the other nails. :)
My second visit was with a woman. I did acrylics with her and she was sloppy and quick. She filed my nails down WAY too much and she accidentally filed my cuticles three times with the automatic filer (which that hurts soo bad!) I asked her to please be careful because she was hurting me. She then put the glue on nails but she used so much glue that she literally glued my nails to my skin and it started hurting.
I tipped her (but not as high as I normally would) but I felt like she did not deserve a tip at all.
Later on that night, my nails were throbbing so much that I felt it in my sleep and had to take ibuprofen. I believe it’s cause she filed too much of my natural nail off.
In the future, I will not be returning and I do not recommend you use this place at all.

It was my cousins birthday so I brought her here to get her and I’s nails done. We asked to sit together but the ladies said that wouldn’t be possible. I do not see why it wasn’t because the person sitting next to me was one of the other nail techs with her headphones plugged in watching a movie on her iPad. Anyway, we both got the same thing done, hers took 20 minutes and mine took 45! This is because every five minutes my nail tech would get up and check other customers out and sit customers down. She also kept forgetting to do things: she top-​coated one nail and not the other and massaged one hand and not the other. I kept having to remind her because she kept forgetting. Last but not least, my cousin and I both got french manicures and they started chipping THAT NIGHT! I will not be going back to this place ever again, complete waste of my money and time.

I go to this salon every week for a pedi and a fill-​in. Everything is clean and the pedis last about 40 minutes — you get your money’s worth for sure. The staff is very professional– I have my favorites for each service. The menu of services is pretty big– I love the coconut oil pedicure or the aloe Vera pedicure — they use real slices of cut aloe plant! The place does get busy, but I can’t recall ever having to wait. My pink and white set always lasts and the nails don’t break. I highly recommend this salon.

I don’t even want to give them a star. I am visiting Florida from CALIFORNIA and needed to get my eyebrows done for a Photoshoot. This old lady refused to do my eyebrows because she couldn’t figure out how to arch them. What kind of beauty certification did she receive? She was «scared» to mess up and refused to try. She told me to go get them threaded. I dot see anything «Pro» fessional or «Cali“fornia about this place. Don’t offer services you do not know how to perform.

I usually go to another salon in the mall but they were very busy so I decided to give Cali a shot. My mom and I went in for a full set and a pedicure, and we were told there was no wait and we would be helped right away. As I was trying to pick out a color I felt very rushed by the nail tech to just pick something and sit down. This was the beginning of constantly being rushed here. So we sat down for our pedis and the nail tech was kind of skeezy and not friendly in the slightest. Never have I seen someone rush through a pedicure so fast. I mean it was nice that we didn’t have to wait long but it wasn’t the most relaxing experience or best quality work ever. When the pedi was done it looked just ok but not great. A different nail tech did my full set and she was a big improvement over the 1^st one. She was quick but efficient as well as friendly and made casual conversation with me. The full set looked good when she was done. There prices were slightly under average compared to the other places but I would say it’s worth it to pay an extra $ 5 somewhere else for a more relaxing experience and better quality nails.
Overall I would say they did an average job but the fact that I felt unrelated and didn’t have the best service from the first tech bumps it down a star.

So the idea of getting my nails pretty for New Years Eve turned out to be more than I bargained for. It has been 72 hours since I got my nails done at Cali Pronails, and I am more than unimpressed. As I mentioned in my review the technician who did my nails was very rough with them and had broken skin on three of my fingers. Two of the cuts are now very infected and hurt terribly. Even after applying antibacterial ointment the infection has still yet to start to subside. I have no idea what their sanitation practices areas they pulled all the tools out of a wooden cabinet and didn’t seem to wipe down the surfaces after customers were finished.
I do not recommend you go to this nail salon, it’s not a sensible idea. Of course they did not give me a receipt and just stuck my money in the till without ringing it in so I can’t go and get a refund issued (smart thinking Cali Pro) so now I am stuck with ugly nails, and an unsightly infection on two fingers. This place is unfriendly, unprofessional, and unsanitary. Stay away!
