Relax Nails & Spa - San Diego (CA)

5 /5 Liesbeth Gijsel: These ladies were so friendly and patient. I went in there super nervous and came out relaxed and smiling. I will go again. Enjoyed the little foot massage, the Netflix show they put on and the friendly banter.

2 /5 M Mcd: *ended up with an infection* I was recommended to this place by a girl in my building at work. Her nails looked beautiful and clean. They were what I was looking at trying to get done. After how highly she spoke of them I made my appointment and even took my man with me so he could get his feet pampered. My visit ended up being bittersweet. We got the "royal spa pedicure" or something like that its was the second most expensive spa pedicure on their list. It was WONDERFUL! The technicians were a pleasure to work with and were a joy to have conversation with. Yes the conversations were short but when you bring in a man with ticklish arches and it comes to pumicing his soles...good times. My technician checked with me for every part of the treatment amongst the temperature of the products used, if anything was uncomfortable, etc. The most I can say is that my man almost fell asleep and he had smooth feet for WEEKS (he wears boots in a labor intensive job so ya Im impressed) my toes looked great and I would go back to that specific technician. My problem was with my tech for my manicure...she was..unpleasant to say the least. This was not my first manicure nor my first set of acrylics.. she kept yanking my hand and twisting my fingers. She kept stabbing me with her own nails to the point of almost bleeding. She trimmed my cuticles to the point of several fingers bleeding... please understand I was very vocal about my discomfort during this appointment. I asked for a different tech and was told no with a sneer. I tried pulling my hands away several times but she would continuously grab my forearm and yank my hand back...the poor girl working on my feet couldnt do anything about it. She tried to speak to the girl doing my nails about something and she was immediatly shut down. Long story short, I got *close* to what I asked for. Each nail was a different length, the corresponding nail on the opposite hand did not match the length of the other. Nails were crooked and slightly different shapes. And to finish with my pointer finger got infected and swelled up within 24 hours. I got antibiotics and ended up losing the entire nail within a week. I say my visits bittersweet because I would say it was just this specific tech that ruined my experience. I wish I would have remembered her name but if I go back and see her there I will update with her name. Pics attached. What I asked for vs what I got and my toes as well.

5 /5 Stacy G.: First visit - Went in for a gel removal on hands and feet and Jackie did a great job. I was quoted a lower price over the phone for the removal and she honored it. I will definitely go back for a pedicure. Second visit- got a gel manicure by Tram and basic pedicure by Jackie. Both did a great job.

4 /5 Kia R: Clean, professional, great job on nail designs. Not sure what the prices were, as I was referred and took my bf. But overall great experience and love love love my nails!!

5 /5 Nicole Einstein: Everytime I come here I leave so happy! They always are such a joy to chat with and they always endulge my crazy nail pinterest designs. I love the relaxing ambiance too, especially since getting my nails done is just about the only time I take time for myself. Thank you ladies for making me and my nails feel beautiful again! Happy to have my favorite nail spot!! :)
