List Best 18 Nail Salons in Hayward, CA (Part 2)

Shunda Mcduffie Miss Nails never lets me down!! Have been a customer for over 8yrs. Normal nail tech is Tammy, she is the best ever!!! New lady today also did a Good job.

Just Lillian Ive been going to this place for years. Long and Fong are me and my daughters nail tech. If my daughter isnt with me they ask about her, we feel like family. The environment is welcoming and diverse. My daughter does not talk to strangers but felt right at home since her very first time there. Great people and great prices.

Klara Bess It was a great visit. Ronnie did my nails and I believe she was the owner who helped with The Visit. Professional excellent job, however, they only accept cash. I myself like to use my credit card but no chance of that you have to go through. Cash App Or one of those sorts of payment ways. I do recommend this place tho.

Elizabeth Katz No one "could do" my design choice after Tammy made me bleed twice during the manicure! I go over to Queen Nails up the street and they dont even hesitate to do the design! This was the design with these colors.

Christina Palacios They do my nails perfect for a good price and they are very friendly. Better service for the best price

Michelle Moniz Kathy is the best

THE WARREN FAMÍLÍA This has to be the WORST SERVICE. I booked a 12pm appointment arrived at 11:55 Said hello no one acknowledged me. I waited for over an hour untill I finally said how was I waiting for an hour when I had a 12 pm appointment. And all one of them ssaid was if I could be patient. I will absolutely never be back again.

Daryl Smith I love Kathy and Hanh they always take thier time and great results. Been going here almost a decade!

Kristi Reed Had a marvelous pedicure at Hollywood Nails. Great service and friendly techs. Will visit again!

Jylian Cortez Nguyen is the best at pedicures. I’ll do the 40 minute drive just to see him. ✨

Annette Terry Ww were a WALK IN, seated as soon as we came in. We got pedicures they were very detailed and attentive, great naildesigns. I live 45 minutes away but if in the area I would definitely book a appointment with them again.

alysia gritz Very clean very lovely. My mom and I had an appointment today for pedicures and they did a fantastic job as always. We got the number 2 wirh Gel nails. The massage and hot stones felt sooooo sooo good. They also offer massages too. Foot massage and full body. And they do haircuts and color too. I got a wash, blow dry, flat iron, and trim all for $95!!!

Syed Abbas Anna was very patient while providing her services to my mother! We were visiting from TX to attend a wedding and were in need of a reliable hair salon who accepted last minute appointments. Im so glad I found this hidden gem!

Norma Warwick Moore Tried to go in as walk-in but the lady said appointment only..it says recommended but no where did it say required. I had trouble finding it because they only had a billboard on the lot but they dont have a sign in front of their shop like the other stores in the place. Too bad for them, i inyended to spend some money getting my nails done for a wedding over the weekend. Their loss!!

Frances Davis Jenny has been my go to nail tech for several years. She is the master of nail design and top notch service.

Jenny T Best nail artist in the area. Shes sweet, friendly, and talented. My nails always look perfect when Jenny does them. I book every 3 weeks with her and sometimes 6-12 weeks in advance. If you want to see her, be patient, it can take 4 weeks to get an appointment

Mona Polk love, love, love Jenny. Shes very professional and fast. She doesnt over book, therefore you get your one on one time with her doing her best artistry on you. Highly recommend her, just book ahead of time as she books months in advance.

Melss Garcia My nail experience was not good . I’m sorry but these have been one the worst nails I’ve got here . I feel like she didn’t even try they were so rushed .

Karen Gonzalez Today I got a gel mani, gel pedi, waxed my eyebrows and got lash extensions all under $100.00!!! I will definitely be a returning customer!

Marisol Would recommend 100%! It was truly a pleasent experience. I had a pedicure and they were gentle and polite, also had my eyelashes done and was quick and gentle! Prices are descent and the service was excellent! Thank you!

It’s Me Annetta Always a pleasant outcome. Busy shop, because of great service. Been a customer for over 20 years. Most recent design 2/2024 inspiration Valentines Day

J A I had a really excellent experience here I called in and asked if they took walk in for acrylic nails and they said yes come In. I had the pleasure to get seen by Mimi she took care of me and gave me great advice as to what shape would look best I showed her some pictures as to what I was looking for and she gave me confidence I told her to do what you think is best with what I was looking and what she thought would make it look better and I left very happy I will be coming back thanks for the Great service.

Keda Williams I am a new customer who just moved to the Hayward area from Richmond and this was the closest nail shop to my apartment. I called to make an appointment for a pedicure upon arrival. Tran was very kind sweet and nice and did amazing job on my pedicure, this will be my new favorite shop and I can’t see myself going anywhere else honestly, one of the best service I’ve ever had in a long time. Thank you for the awesome job you did and you’ll see me soon. I see from the reviews about pricing honestly to me her prices are very reasonable compared to other shops that I’ve seen or heard from my female friends how much they’re paying for a simple pedicure you can’t beat if you want GEL have to remember yesterday‘s price isn’t today’s price we’re in inflation at the moment so everyone has to slightly rise prices to make ends meet but it’s worth that extra. I promise you’ll leave happy -Keda

Lis Ray I have been looking for a Nail salon since I moved to the East bay. I am so grateful to have found this place! Very friendly and the prices are reasonable compared to other places. Trinh did my nails just the way I like it! plus the lady who did my pedicure gave me a good massage which my feet really needed. I highly recommend this spa and will be returning again and again. Thank you Lavish Nails!

Maria Peralta I decided to give this salon a try since it’s really close to me and I really like it. The two ladies that have done my pedicure have done a good job and take their time. The place is clean. It’s been rare that I have to wait & when I have or seen others wait. They try to get work done in a timely manner. Trinh is great!! She seems to be well organized and caring. I’ve had full sets, gel, and hard gel, and the work has lasted plus the prices are fair.

Setefano Ahovelo I loved the service here and it was very fast compared to other nail salons that I have been to!! Loved it 10/10!!

Thu-Ha Ho I recently got my nails done for my sisters event, and I couldnt be happier! The design is wonderfully simple yet incredibly cute. I absolutely love the way they look – undeniably pretty and perfect for the occasion. Highly recommended!

Ami Trivedi We’ve been coming to Royal Nail Bar for years for mani and pedi. They always do a really lovely job. This time, I was excited to take my 2.5 & 5.5 year olds there. Grace really went above and beyond at making the girls feel comfortable & sooo beautiful with their sparkly rainbow nails. Thank you, Grace & RNB team! You all rock!!

Brandy Amarillas Wow, I had such a great time last Friday. They accommodated our reservations. At other salons I make an appointment only to wait 20-30 minutes. They did beautiful work on both mine and my friends pedicure. I also enjoyed a nice refreshing vodka cocktail while getting my nails done. These ladies were so hospitable. Ill be visiting again!

Ruthie Thomas I’ve been to this place twice before and they did a good job and were quick. I just get an acrylic overlay, no color, for a polished look and to help my natural nail grow. Today, I asked him to just round out the corners so I don’t poke myself. I guess that meant ‘rounded’ and before I could stop him, my pinky nail was filed inward at a ridiculous angle. When I pointed it out, the solution was to file my nail down more and more. On top of that the acrylic was uneven, missing on some corners and left in large clumps on others. I pointed it out and he put more acrylic on and sanded it down, but I literally had to point out every single area. I hate microscopically watching like this and pointing out every flaw, but it’s a service I’m paying for, and as I work with my hands in people’s faces (makeup artist) I need them to look presentable. However, it got to a point I just wanted to be done and leave considering after every sanding, he filed my nails down so now I’ve been left with fractions of my original length. Additionally, now apparently they want you to pay cash only, even though card was accepted beforehand.

Create Opulence Definitely give this salon a try. It is a great location parking is not a problem. Service was pretty great. I got a dip on my natural nails & a collagen pedi with gel. My nails were overdue. I also didnt get the easiest color choice. Red glitter dip isnt easy. All came out even, shaped nicely, no cuts and skin areas are smooth.

Taylor Made Bad attitudes work is slipping and too expensive. I dont think these owners and technicians realize you wouldnt be in business if it wasnt for the customers. I think they need to have more appreciation and offer a free design or 2 for thier long standing customers. Or have a customer appreciation day twice a year to let us customers know we are appreciated.

Benita Henry Judy is the best shes the only one who do my nails. Ive been rocking with her for over 18 years.

Juan Del Bosque My wife $90 dollars for her nails and the day after got peeling off we come back to get fixed and they don want fixed

Miranda Sulley Perfect gel manicure for $30 - couldn’t be happier for my birthday nails! So happy to have found this place.

Victoria Desrosier I used to refer allot of people here but she loses long time customers because she double books and has loyal clients waiting over 30 minutes for a pre booked appointment. Respect your clients time.

MUEY SAEPHANH Best nail salon and funny folks in here. They are very sweet, professional and I love going here!!!

Deeana Owens I went to this place a few times. The most recent visit, they damn near burned my fingers off. They soaked my nails in hot acetone and it took weeks for my skin to recover. I’ll never go back. I haven’t gotten my nails done since. I got PTSD from that.

Gricelda Hernandez LMT Amazing customer service, I like how they all have their nice beautiful uniforms with name tags. The chairs are super comfortable and their silver diamond colors very elegant. Our new favorite nail shop in San Leandro. there is plenty of parking space and the atmosphere is peaceful with lots of plants and elegant orchids. I invite you to support local, small business like this one.

Tyler M Great experience with Emily to do my pedicure. I love the hot stones. Well priced for the quality of service.

Michaela Duphay Lo anne and the ladies were amazing , super friendly. I showed them a picture of what I wanted and they came though. They did an amazing job on my nails like super amazing I’m in love . I found my new to go nail salon . You won’t be disappointed

Mary Kendall Update: This place closed. I tried to call to book an appointment, the number was no longer in service. Drove by it get yesterday and they were scraping the window art off the windows. Had a full set of acrylics done. The lady did a good job. They are not thick and shaped well. I made a same day appointment. There was a 15 minute wait but I didnt mind that. She apologized twice for my wait. I am pleased and plan to return for my fills.

Brianna Young Excellent service and excellent results. The staff is friendly and efficient. The prices are reasonable and I’m very satisfied with the manicures and pedicures I’ve gotten here. After moving to Hayward, this is my new nail place!

Theresa Jamison Went here for the first time today and had a very good experience. The salon is spacious and clean. I felt very relaxed as the woman helping me took good care of me and my feet. I will definitely return.

Priscilla Montenegro They did my nails and in 3 days they were breaking and then I went to fix them and they got mad and burned me and bruised my finger while they were doing my nails so fast

Rae F I asked for simple white square acrylics. And they were Absolutely TERRIBLE. I literally was embarrassed to show my hands for several days until I could rip them off. I literally was biting them off the next day because they were HIDEOUS. I didn’t even want to show my husband they were that bad. The ladies are nice mostly and the salon is very clean and I love that they have kid pedicure chairs. but after my last experience there, I haven’t and won’t return. The nails were AWFUL. and I mean AW-FUL!!!!!

C J Pettiford One of my best girl friends suggested I go to this nail salon to get mine and my girls nails done. I booked an appointment at 2pm, when we got there 3/4 were seated immediately and the 4th was seated 4 minutes later. They did gel manicures and pedicures for my girls and a full set and pedicure for me. I showed Julie a picture of what I wanted, explained what I wanted different and sat back for the ride. Julie did my nails exactly like I like them without me saying anything extra! She was very kind, chatted with me a bit and made sure my nails were to my liking. The girls enjoyed their technicians as well. My pedicure was wonderful! This was my first time and won’t be my last. I’m already excited about going for my fill in a couple weeks. You know they are good when I will drive 2 hours to get my nails done! $75 for my nails, $25 for my pedicure and $110 for 3 gel manicures and reg. Pedicures. (One child’s nails/feet not pictured.) keep in mind it was hard to get my kids to keep still enough to take these pictures.

kia c Ask for Vivian!!!! Theyre shaped so good! Smoooth! Beautiful! Definitely are giving spring baby or summer time! Love them

Phnoml Wm My daughter was referred here by my friend and her daughter. My daughter showed her nail tech a picture of the nail design she wanted to have. He recreated exactly what she showed him. It was amazing and clean craftsmanship. The only thing he did not do were the different flowers on each nail because he had my girlfriend and daughter needing their nails done and hers were time consuming.

Christina B. I was charged $60 for nails and they came out terrible. At first the nail tech put a nail on crooked and then was upset when I asked her to fix it which was so unprofessional and she was rude too. The dollar spent doesn’t match the quality, they came out super square and narrow because she filed it too much on the sides. They looked worse than press on nails.

Maria Iraheta OK nail salon, but not worth the money charges. The gel nails they do are not that great and they leave your nails crooked. The gel came of the next day when I did the dishes and it was not even that many. They started to peel by the cuticle line. I dont think to go back and do not recomend, please look for an alternative nail salon.

Rachel Riojas Dont go here, not for acrylic anyway. The dumb thing is, I called ahead and asked if they do Gel X (gel extension) nails and they said yes. I sat down, and I told the worker 2 times that I wanted Gel X. She said okay. She thought I meant just gel color, when I corrected her she said no, no we dont have that we dont do it. I ask again, just to make sure, she says they dont do it there. I decide to go with acrylic even though I hate it because no one takes the time to really sculpt and make something pretty, case in point, my nails. Then another worker shows me that they do have it. He says this to me after I already committed to acrylic. He said its actually called Gel X Mas. He points to the menu, its no where on the menu. Worst experience ever. Go to Oh My Nails.

Varsha Patel i been going on and off to this place for 20 years now . love my nails ! kathy and tony are great team. love them both a lot. will be there loyal always

Marie Anne Best Nail salon . Everyone is talented . It was really fast and did my nails amazingly !! I’m visiting California but I wish I lived closer by thank you again !!

Richard Harris These women refused to give me service. Granted I wasnt looking my best, it has been a long night. My feet were killing me. They refused me service I assured them I was able to pay but to no avail. I told them I would be back. So today Im making an appointment then I can judge there work. About 15 women in there and NO one would help me. Butt no worries TREETOP ALWAYS wins. Check back for the follow up.

Candi Sandoval Lee is the best!! He has great energy and always makes you laugh! Service is great and so is the price!! I came here for years since I was in high school and now I bring my daughter.

Isaac.O Sanchez HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Went it with reference picture as shown below for my son and got that ! NEARLY BALD.Also left no hair at the top to style and continually kept cutting off more and more hair overall leaving it nothing like I asked or showed.Wouldnt recommend for men haircuts very bad job.WOULD NEVER COME BACK !

Reema Patel The lady at Lillys in Hayward who did my manicure was rough n my fingers while filing nails. She did not put an undercoat before putting gel and my nail color was showing. And nails looked 2 tone. She cut my nails too short too. And whole taking my payment she threw the card back on me. Right from the beginning she was rushing with me. When the pedicure lady was working on my toes, this lady wanted to do manicure on me from the side. I found this absurd. Another thing I noticed was that when a customer walks in they talk and laugh about them. I felt very uneasy here. Maybe thats why the place was empty as customers find them annoying.

Lashonna Collins I have been going there for over five years and never had a bad experience. I only get pedicures they are always done correctly and my feet are always smooth and pretty when I leave.I am always happy with my visits there.The ladies there are all nice. I had to update my review I went in there last week. I did not have an appointment , it was one person getting their feet done,one nails and one getting there haircut.She said let me finish haircut and your next ,so she soak my feet.I’m waiting another lady comes in and they start on her feet I didn’t say anything thinking she had an appointment.The other lady is finished with her pedicure and leaves.Im on my phone and I look up and ask the lady next to me did she have a appointment ,she says no.Two people are getting their haircut ,one nails and two eating.No one says your next or nothing. I waited 40 minutes soaking my feet.I get up dry my feet put my shoes on and start walking out.No one said so sorry for your wait you’re next,they just looked at me and I left. I have brought my mom,sister and friends here .It was so much better when Lisa worked there they have went down and lost a loyal customer.

alms baasha Walked in without an appointment and me and my cousin got a pedicure / deluxe package, which is feet cleaned and waxed and gel pedicure and my cousin got a manicure right after. They are sweet ladies and gentle. I definitely recommend☺️

Sean Stuart This place used to be good when they didnt have as many customers. Long wait time and horrible service make it no more attractive. I went there and waited for an hour without being asked why Im there? The workers dont focus on their work instead theyre busy discussing their stuff. Hair cuts are not welcomed because of their low price tags, so its a waste of time and resources. Secondly, the workers are calling their customers and lines are not respected, first come first serve is not a rule here. Last, the quality of service is very low and you can get that service way cheaper and quicker in other places in proximity to the business.

May Serrano This is my second time visiting Lavender Nail and Spa. I got lucky that I got Mai again to do my manicure and I love the way my manicure turned out. She also gave me a pedicure. The pricing is also not too bad. I will definitely be getting my nails done by Mai again. Parking can be a little bit hard though.

za az 2 First of all they rush you They giving service to 2 customers at the same time on a Weekday , you paying for the service They should focus on you on top of that they use cheap Products Specially, for gel Pedicure the result is very dull $50 this is from yesterday

Marissa Chinn Ok this is my go-to nail salon now only because its close to home and prices are decent for acrylics. After I switched from gel manicures to acrylics, I noticed a big difference in quality. I still get gel for pedicures, but so far seems ok. Maybe its because my favorite technician, Tammy, just does a quality job regardless. I love that she takes her time no matter how busy the salon is and shes very attentive to the details.

Cindy Hollis Just had a lovely relaxing pedicure today. Great service and very friendly staff.

Taylor Imelda Fantastic service! The technicians are skilled and friendly. My pedicure was relaxing, and my nails turned out beautiful. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for quality care.

Lucy Sun This nail salon is fantastic! The staff was friendly and made me feel comfortable. My pedicure was done perfectly, and I loved the selection of colors available. Ill definitely be back❤️

Emily K What a delightful visit! The technician was professional and made me feel comfortable. My nails turned out perfect, and I received so many compliments. I’ll be recommending this salon to everyone!

Eirlys Aretha The technicians really take their time to make sure your nails look perfect. The service is friendly, and they make you feel welcome. Prices are fair, and the quality is fantastic.

Alondra Carranza I came to this place because my friend recommended it , and because the reviews have beautiful nails, but the person that did my nails rushed and was harsh they need to focus on the person they’re doing nails to not the Next person coming in , my PLUS is that I didn’t get CUTICLE OIL after my nails were done , you can see in the picture how dry and messed up they are. And they charged me 60$

Manisha Kumar Helen is amazing. I went to take off my bridal nails which were acrylics and she took care of my nails so gently. I got a lavender gel manicure and she proceeded to work efficiently but very good. She also gave me a hand/arm massage. I work on the computer & also an esthetician so my arms and hands are constantly sore. Thank you Helen. You did a wonderful job. She is my go to now!

Erica Jackson Long is amazing! He’s literally my favorite nail tech. Definitely call if you want him - He’s very popular and is the owner so his schedule is pretty booked but its so worth it!

Nohemi Gomez This was my first time getting my nails done since 2011. My first time was with a very tired lady that my family requested to come over to do all the nails of the ladies at the house. It was awful for me, and I stayed away from nail salons for a very long time. With my birthday approaching, I decided to come here on a whim. Everyone was so friendly and the workers really seemed to enjoy working there. While they mostly speak between each other in their language, it didnt bother me. The two ladies that worked on me were very gentle and sweet. I had pedicures and gel nails for my feet and nail extensions with powder dip on my hand. They had a wide variety of colors and glitters. I would give 5 stars if it wasnt for the fact that some of my nails are slightly crooked. I notice very small details since I have a bit of OCD. The tip of one finger is missing a little bit of glitter. Overall, my nails are lightweight and evenly done. My toe nails were made to look their best in their natural state, and for that, Im so very thankful. I can file my nails to be as even as I want them to. I got Medium Almond Shaped Nails. Pink shade 34 and a glitter that has white, baby pink and baby blue. My toes are 152 pink. The ladies have gentle hands and a careful eye. I will consider coming back for holidays ahead.

Shayla Selva This was the place I recommended my family and friends and even trusted enough to bring my co worker who is extremely picky. Nina is great but unfortunately became busier and running 2 businesses can be challenging if you want to book her. Then the next best manicurist left and I had no choice but to keep getting someone different all the time. Unfortunately this last time was the last time. Turns out I got a pedicure that ended up giving me an infection that took almost 2 months to heal! My doctor said it was caused by unclean or unsanitary tools. I had come in to do a pedicure and had asked the young lady to please remove what seemed to be an in grown and she did. Although very painful I trusted her enough to do the work to avoid a doctor. This was a mistake because apparently I ended up getting an infection caused by using unclean tools. I was on antibiotics for 10 days and could not wear closed toe shoes. I was in allot of pain and discomfort. I loved the this place; it was my go to place where I can just Relax for an hour and a half and forget all my troubles but I will no longer be going there. Nina is amazing! She always was very clean and cautionary with me but I cannot speak the same for all of her staff members. I wish them the best though.I have not gotten a professional pedicure since then out of fear and I am very skeptical to trust another salon but I know I will find the perfect one for me.

Christina Veloza Ive been going here for years, and my nails always come out looking incredible!

Lupita Navarro Rushed work, acrylic over finger, messy Fresh Tip line and sides, when asked to level out shape she got mad.

Jacks Jack “Jack” The 3 stars because I like Lynn but the owner should be ashamed of himself the floor has holes the chairs are so old they are so hard and uncomfortable it hurts to sit down on them this place is a nightmare

simran sekhon The service was very unsatisfactory. The owner likes to ask for tip even if the customer is not satisfied. They switch people for a single service, a concept that I have not seen at any other nail place. They expect 4 tips for 3 services, which is ridiculous.

Chidinma Barrett I know a lot of people have reviews that this place is clean. It isn’t clean at all. I just stepped out of this place. I noticed that the Asian lady in charge of manicure was notoriously dirty. She didn’t clean her instruments before attending to me. I asked for a clean manicure because I needed an expert who’s capable of doing it. She messed up my nails, verbally abused me, and called my nails ‘crooked’. As a woman of color, this is the first time I have been verbally abused because of the stellar reviews. I told her that I’m recovering from an illness that I didn’t want long gel nails. I left the shop because it isn’t right to accept mistreatment. I paid for the service. I posted pictures with the receipt.
