HORRIBLE. One of the worst salons I’ve been to. I let the lady know my thumb nail was crooked and all messed up… she didn’t care. She just said “I know” and did nothing about it. She rushed through my manicure and ended up cutting me multiple times. And the pedicure was rushed as well… it’s been 2 days and the paint is already chipping. DONT GO HERE
Kim is great. She does excellent work
Absolutely destroyed my nails.
I came in for an easy eye brow wax, stating that I just wanted them cleaned up a little and kept thick. The woman doing the wax worked SO FAST she took off most of my left eyebrow. She rushed through the whole thing, it literally took less than 2 minutes start to finish. They were not busy, I just think she genuinely did not care about what she was doing (my right brow is perfect). I will never come back for a wax here again, and more than likely won’t be coming in to get my nails done because of the sour taste they left. I am beyond disappointed.
Five stars for a killer pedicure with a long foot massage, that was awesome.Zero stars for SNS dip nails, they do not know how to properly apply this medium. They skipped the whole filing and buffing before topcoat was applied, so the surface is grainy and warped. They also did not apply the dip in the correct way to make a c-curve on the nail so when looking at them, the nail is flat and will surely break soon. The shape of the nail was pretty wonky also, I had to do a lot of filing when I got home to get them uniform in shape. That was not awesome.
Showed up as a walk in and didnt have to wait long. Nice employees. Lady did a great job.
Ive been getting my mani/pedi here for a few years. Kim, Chrisine, and the rest of the staff are all friendly and courteous. They do a wonderful job at a reasonable price. Im always happy with the results!
Thank you Apollo Nails and Spa. San Diego finally has a really good salon I can keep going. ❤️
Great salon! I took my 2 young daughters for pedicures and they loved it. I love the smaller chairs for kids. My only comment would be to make sure you have cash for a tip as they dont accept credit card tips. I felt badly not being able to tip them.
Apollo Nails is clean and has very experienced nail technicians. Everyone is so friendly.
Amazing friendly staff and a very clean nail shop. The owner is always sweeping the floor and wiping furnitures, shes always up and moving making sure the place is looking amazing and customers are taken care of. They even provide all customers with a small bottle of water. Christine is my favorite and my go to person but I would have to say all the staff are friendly.
A little pricey. I usually go with my daughter we mani/pedis together. Lol
I went in for waxing and it just wasnt very good. Everyone was nice but my eyebrows just dont look great.
Very reasonable prices for excellent service!! Super clean, accommodating to walk-ins, and GREAT pedicures - especially the massage included in the delux option.
Very friendly. Great service with reasonable prices.
I went with 2 of my friends to get our nails done, it wasnt expensive and considering our appt was at 630 and they closed at 7. They didnt hurry, and were all very nice
Kim is amazing and the only one who will touch my nails! I take my daughter in occasionally and she loves it and shes quite spoiled there! Nice people, good prices, great work!
I have been going to this nail salon for two years now I love it.... Kim dose an amazing job every time
I have never, in my LIFE, had my face butchered in such a manner. The woman RUSHED through applying the wax, and waved my reference picture (OF MY OWN FACE) away. When I looked in the dirty little mirror I was greeted with two vastly different shaped eyebrows that looked nothing like what Id requested, and to top it off one now slants downward giving me a perpetually scared and sad expression. The other is also much higher. Never use this salon.
Although the staff is attentive and friendly, the work was not as good. I asked for nail art and got something resembling nail art. The acrylic was too thick and covered the cuticles.
I had white powder nail. All broke down in 2days. I was upset. I didnt understand what material did they use.
Today was my first time their (a friend referd me) I felt horrible because I got the appointment time mixed up so she texted me and I apologize THEN she asked if I still wanted it and i told her of course and she still scheduled me that same day! I figured she would have been fed up and not respond which I’d understand..ANYWAY I get their and she was soooo polite AND she even talked to me! Every nail salon I go to they never speak so it’s awkward. She was very professional and she did wonders on my nails and not at a bad price!
This nail salon is horrible. Chunky, poorly shaped nails. The woman that did my nails was not friendly. She left the acrylic all over my cuticles and surrounding areas on my fingers, also did not use the drill to clean the excess acrylic that gets under the nails. My nails looked gross.... I would not recommend this place.
Pretty awful. Three of us went. Got pedis, a mani, and two full sets... everything was poorly done. One set of acrylics are so bad she’s going back tomorrow to have them redone or removed.
Nails good
I came in here with a few friends for a girls day out and it was such a relaxing experience. The younger girl at the front desk was very friendly and offered us all bottles of water while we were selecting our colors. I am not sure if they have new employees but the girl at the front spoke perfect English and my manicurist had broken English, but nothing that I couldnt understand...They had such a wide selection of colors and it was quality brands like OPI and ORLY... I dont really like the salons with the generic brand polish (the ones with the white caps) because they tend to chip faster and turn my nail bed yellow. They also have a good selection of magazines too :) so you arent just reading old tabloids from a year ago.SERVICE:Polite, they gave me a massage on my calves and feet, which I enjoyed. They are CLEAN! Which is a huge plus for me. They took their time cutting and shaping my cuticles and I really liked the fact that they asked me what length I preferred. I am an avid runner, so I prefer to keep it shorter. Most nail salons would discourage me from it because it doesnt look as nice- but they let me do what I wanted (double plus!) They also applied a base coat, which is a step some other salons skip.PRODUCT:I got that manicure/spa pedicure about 2 weeks ago and my nails are still holding up fine... I have a slight chip on my finger but I type a lot at my job so I think its pretty good considering. (I will have to post a picture on Yelp since they dont offer that option here) I opted to get french on my toes and Mint with daisies on my hands- if that helps!OVERALL: I would definitely come here again. It is only more expensive by a few bucks but to me it is worth it because I got what I wanted and it lasted. Dont let the rough exterior of the outdated shopping center fool you, the inside is nicely updated and bright. They also have little girl pedicure chairs that are shaped like animals and come equipped with DVD players. So cute!!
Worst experience ever, u first had me sit and wait for an whole hour then they took care of two other people before me also at the end they go up on me on the price.Worst place ever next to VONS GROCERY I WILL NEVER GO BACK. EVER
Love this place for me and my little girls!!
Only place to get your nails done in San Diego!
