Came in for a mani/​pedi yesterday. I was expecting more but the lady who did my nails did a normal job with painting the nails but with filing they are all unevenly shaped. I should be have said something but didn’t but won’t be returning a d will try a different place.

My boyfriend and I love this nail salon. Everyone is really friendly and the vibe is very relaxed. They do want tips in cash, but they have an atm inside if you need it. Wendy is a fantastic tech, and I just got my nails (feet and hands-​gel) done by Max tonight and they look fantastic! We come every month to get our nails done, and couldn’t imagine going anywhere else.

The service was good. The ladies are super sweet. But the prices are a little high… I would make this my usual spot if they lowered the prices a lil. $ 65 for mani pedi is a bit aggressive.

Awful experience. I go there all of the time and I will never return! First the woman stops in the middle of painting my hand without even asking to go to 2 people’s eyebrows ! Then I realize she had painted my hands a similar color to what I had chose but not the matching color to my toes. Terrible customer service ! Instead of being accommodating or even apologizing, they told me it was my fault for not noticing earlier !
They continued to laugh and speak in their native language. They also charged me more than I have ever paid there !

Got my nails done by Andy! He’s amazing. He pays attention to detail and knows what’s best for your nails. He’s also very sweet and gets to know you.
The environment here is also very clean. The other staff there are very friendly too!

Great place! Very clean and neat – everything looks brand new! My parents and I walked in early in the day and there were only two people working. When they saw us walk in, the immediately called another worker to come in and help out. We all got the European Pedicure which was nice.
Two negatives: the woman doing my pedicure totally clipped my toe while cutting my nail and it hurt so bad, throbbed all day. However, she did treat it promptly. Also, when giving the massage (included in the pedicure) they went over the same spot over and over again. Would have been nice to switch it up a bit.
Overall, a great place and my pedicure looks great.

I have been to this salon three times now and absolutely love it. The service is excellent and the manicurists do a fantastic job. The Salon is clean and they keep it that way. I would recommend this establishment to anyone.

Second time in and I love this place. It’s spacious and very clean. You don’t that overwhelming smell of acetone when you walk into the place. The staff is super friendly and they take care of you. I really appreciate the cleanliness of this shop I’ve been to many and this is by far my favorite. They have an autoclave to clean to all their supplies. They even put liners into the pedicure spa chairs so it keeps them clean and your not dipping your feet into the same bin as every other person.
Ran in for a quick pedicure today and a eyebrow wax. She really took her time with me and even added a 3rd coat of polish. I stopped in on my lunch and they got me out just in time to make it back to work. She gave me a great foot and leg massage then they clean your legs off with warm towels. She even used a salt scrub to make your legs and feet super soft. Great experience at this shop!

Went in on a Sunday night with a girlfriend about 45 minutes to close so I called just to make sure they had time for 2 gel manicures. They were more than welcoming and told us to come. The salon is pretty new and they’ve been there for about 9 months (I believe they said). Vivian did my nails and Wendy did my friend’s nails. Both were very nice and made sure we liked the colors before completing our sets. They let us know that as long as we get there 10 minutes before their posted closing time, they would still work on us, so that’s awesome if you’re ever running a little late. Overall it was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely go back. My cost was $ 27 and I’ll also post a picture of my mani. (:

Exceptional customer service and a huge selection of high quality nail polishes. I received the most amazing hand and arm massage with the sugar scrub. Jennifer was quick, but still paid attention to every detail.

My coworker been raving about this salon for the longest time and kept telling me to get my manicure done here. So, I finally caved in and decided to check this place out. To my surprise, this salon is very clean and the staff working here are very friendly and sociable. I also didn’t had to wait in the waiting area that long, when a customer left and one of the nail techs finish cleaning after her. She came and got me. I was seated at her station and she began her work. Very professional she is, she cut my nails evenly and nicely. Removed the cuticles without a problem and she listen to all my requests afterwards. When she was done, I was very pleased with her work. She did a wonderful job on my nails that I’ll be coming back here again soon! Definitely will be bring all the girls in my family next time!

This was my second time here and I’m a little bummed I didn’t leave a review sooner. Yesterday, a friend and I dropped by the Hillcrest location for a much needed mani. I was a little apprehensive at first since we did not have an appointment but the girls took us in right away. In the past, walking into a nail salon without an appointment draws an entire slew of dirty looks and trash talk (as if it’s not obvious) but our girls, KIM and VIVIAN, were more than happy to assist us. They were so friendly and had us laughing the entire time. Kim is an absolute gem! She payed so much attention to detail even offering to re-​do a holiday inspired design on my nail incase I didn’t like it. Like seriously?! Ya’ll are AMAZING! I definitely would recommend to anyone on the hunt for a new go-​to nail spot. Thanks Kim! Xo

I have been coming to iNails and Spa for several months, and the quality of the gel manicures and regular pedicures is always top notch! I have seen several nail artists; however, I often try to request Wendy because she is so nice and gives the most relaxing massages. She knows how to make me feel relaxed, and she remembers my name every time. The studio is always clean, which is important to me. They use sanitary practices and offer complimentary water and tea. Plus, the massage chairs are great! If you live/​work/​shop in Hillcrest, this place is worth checking out. Today I got a super cute Halloween spider web added to my gel manicure. Look for the photo…

Connie was great with my pedicure and offered me a discount upon getting a facial. I wasn’t quite due for a facial yet but I did need one in the near future. She was very kind. Two months later, I called for a last minute appointment for the facial and got in within the next hour and a half. It was a great facial for only $ 65! She definitely knew how to massage!
I really like iNails it’s clean, great hours and staff! I’m a happy camper here.

I was visiting San Diego for pleasure with my husband and knew that I was due to get my nails done at some point on our vacation.
I decided to stop into this place after reading the reviews and walking by the place to see if it looked nice.
It looked very nice and the price for an acrylic fill + shellac was comparable to what I would have been spending at home. The gentleman who did my nails was precise and attentive. He was also very friendly!
He didn’t pressure me to choose a color or add any art to my nails for an additional charge (you know how some places can get pushy…).
This place also has quite a selection to choose from for gel colors! I was soooo excited to have so many choices.
I wish this place was in my state! I would so totally visit here regularly.

This is a new nail salon on 5th, right in the heart of Hillcrest. Since it is new, the place is absolutely spotless. They seem to take a lot of pride in their cleanliness and sanitation. They use liners in their pedicure bowls, which I really appreciate.
The environment is relaxing. They play calming music and don’t have any TVs playing crappy daytime television like some other salons. They do burn incense by the door, so if you are sensitive to smells, you may have to find another spot.
The selection of colors is great, especially reds and pinks. They use OPI and Essie products. The basic spa pedicure is $ 21 — add $ 5 for callus removal. The service was on par with other salons in the area. They give a nice strong massage!
I appreciated the newness of everything, and will certainly be back.

After a boozy brunch at DBar, my girl Laura and I decided to get manicures and keep the girl chat going across the street at iNails. Vivian greeted us warmly, offering us water and tea upon arrival. We were promptly seated at the manicure bar in the middle of the room. UV lights are built right into a shelf beneath the bar! Very convenient and classy.
The shop is well-​ventilated, tranquil and cheerful. Staff are friendly and professional. Vivian was sweet and chatted Laura and me up. Our manicures turned out perfect! Only $ 12 too. Nice!
