Dolce Vista Salon - Santa Barbara (CA)

Living in Santa Barbara - Katinka Goertz I love this local neighborhood store! I always find the cutest gifts there. I’m so happy this store remains a San Roque neighborhood staple and found a new owner. I can’t wait to try their beauty treatments, once that reopens

Megan Krul Papillon is the best nail salon Ive been to! Gypsy is AMAZING, she takes great care into making sure her clients nails are healthy and to their liking. She always makes sure to make my nails as perfect as she can. No one has ever done my nails better! I never leave feeling disappointed. My mom gets her nails done by Jimmy, and says the same of him as well. Theres no TV in the studio, which is very relaxing as they play a great mix of music instead. They only take appointments, so when you arrive you wont have to wait around or feel like theyre rushing. With that being said, I highly recommend making sure youre not late for your appointment because if you are, it puts them behind for everyone else and thats not good for anybody. I used to go to Ocean Nails and would always get dip, but they would break within a week and a half. At Papillon, my dip nails last nearly 3 1/2 weeks! In the photo: I asked Gypsy for baby pink tips, and that I needed help picking a base. She, as always, came to the rescue and helped me pick the perfect combo!

Dwight Butler I came here for a mani pedi which was simply amazing! Ive been a customer for a couple of years now and they have always done really good work, and Ive been totally happy. They do a really good job on your nails and are completely professional. One thing you dont have to worry about is the cleanliness. They are on top it. They are worth checking out!

Gisela Marroquin I had an amazing experience getting my eyelashes done by Didi. It was my first time ever having any form of artificial lashes done and she made sure that I was comfortable throughout the entire process. She checked inspiration photos and was very careful to ensure that each lash was placed correctly.

Reyna R Always a lovely experience. I’ve had several massages with several different masseuses and they have all been great, very attentive, and professional.

Mikki Pineda Great experience! Walked in on a Friday at 4:30 for a gel manicure and was finished by 5pm. They had a beautiful selection of Fall colors so I picked the darkest one #312 because my first choice was black. The hand massage and hot towel wrap at the end was very relaxing! Thank you!

nicolette wolffe So friendly and squeezed us in, loved how friendly and kind they were so my child and me. Clean and good vibes!

Regina Breech Helen is by far the best nail artist I have ever been to and she is definitely the fastest! She has meticulous attention to detail, and is extremely consistent. I love my nails every single time I go to her, which is often! I’ve never been to another nail tech that is as consistent and as fast as Helen. I highly recommend her! You will absolutely love your nails!

Megan Pawlak Ive tried a few different spots in town and this is my best experience to date. Sang did a wonderful job with my nails. She was ultra precise, took her time, and made sure I was happy every step of the way. However, what made this a 5 star experience were the little things. Sang remembered my name and used it often to talk to me. She convinced me to go outside my comfort zone with a little gold foil. (Which I now love). She asked me about my activities to give me nails that will last. The team is small but they were all working together to give everyone a good experience. She sanitized her hands often and everything felt very clean. Even though she was also managing the front, I never felt like an afterthought. Im fairly new to getting my nails done, and as noted above Ive been to many places considered "the best" in town and have not yet felt this level of care. Sang and Glow Nails have a new regular with me. Theyre off the beaten path but worth it. Give them a try.
