I got a gel manicure and it’s been 3 days and I have 3 nails that have already chipped… save your money and your time. My manicure came out lumpy. I was also very wary because she did not pull out her tools from the sealed bags I’ve seen other places do… she just pulled it out from her cart, not covered or anything. Made me question how sanitary this salon truly is. I’ll never be back. Maybe to get a refund but that’s it.
I had been using dip polish to help strengthen my nails as I work in the food service industry, which makes them very fragile. I wanted to find a nail salon closer to home so I decided to give this place a try. It ended up being a huge mistake that cost me my natural nails, which I had been growing out for 4 months. The tech really didnt seem to know what she was doing and improperly applied the dip polish. It was unusually thin and uneven and my nails literally started breaking and deteriorating the following day. The whole session took about an hour longer than it should have and the service cost me over $60.
Seemed really busy but the staff was great and attentive! They were well organized and had constant communication. Id recommend making an appointment, especially on the weekend. We made 3 different appoints for the same time slot and they had the chairs all reserved for us so we did not have to wait!
Walked in for a last minute pedi an hour before closing. They were busy but was I was seen right away. Tammy did an amazing job on my pedicure! She took her time and paid close attention to detail. Great customer service. I will gladly recommend this nail salon and return for future services.
Very unprofessional.! I was treated very poorly. They would not take an appointment by phone and directed me to the website. I made my appointment with Lisa. I was 5 minutes early. She took another customer with my appointment. I was sitting there 25 minutes. Finally was told by another person that she would not be taking me. So instead of telling me she had me sit there waiting for her. Lisa is friendly at first then she becomes moody. I do not recommend using her or this salon. The technicians also do not know how to do nail art. The acrylic chips very easy.
Sometime you have to wait - even if you have an appointment. But they are very good. I have gotten a couple of pedicures and both times they did an excellent job!
Absolutely love this place! Jennie is the best. If you decide to go here make sure to request Jennie. She does a great job at dip nails. She spends a ton of time perfecting each finger. I hate when my nails are super thick and Jennie makes sure to thin them out and shape them! Her technique makes my nails look so natural!
I got a Full Set from Jennie as well as a pedicure from a gentleman there (I wasn’t able to get his name 😢) they both did a wonderful job! Jennie is so great and she did a wonderful job on my full set! I love her creativity she did with the gems and she was able to do exactly what I want and more! I left the salon feeling so good! Definitely will be coming back and will recommend to others! Thank you Jennie!!
Nails are good just the waiting game is a bit rediculous. Scheduled appts for 3 people abd 1 person still had to wait an hour with they were still accepting customers walking in.
The nail tech that I got couldnt do the design that I wanted so I chose another one and the line work was not good :( The nails I got were short and simple and I was charged 83 dollars. The price makes me never want to come back again. :(
If I can give him 0 star I would. So rude and manipulative. Most horrible experience I ever had
I am not happy with my service at revive. I went in for eyelash extensions that I got from Groupon. The lady that did my eyes told me that I just need to cancel the Groupon get my money back and pay them there. She up sold me up to from 60 to 75 lashes. She was very rude and pushy. She would not start on my eyelashes. She kept offering me deals and telling me to get a membership. It was too much. Then I couldnt get my money back from Groupon either. Ive sent them several text messages have not received anything back. So I dont know if theyre willing to do something about this. I am understanding that is so weekend & my appointment was at 4 on Friday. Today is a holiday. If I hear something from them in a timely manner and they do something I will change my rating immediately. Right now I gave them one star. If I could give him no stars I would. As far as the workmanship I dont know that Im happy with that either I dont believe the eyelashes are supposed to go towards the left on the left eye and then straight up on right eye.
Our experience was mediocre. My girlfriend and I both had our cuticles pushed so hard and aggressively that they were bleeding on several fingers.We paid for the organic mani/pedi, and everything was adequate, but not excellent there.It would be nice if in the future, we were asked how hard or soft we wanted the massage.Finally, my girlfriends gel nails were very uneven and bumpy once they finished painting them.They seemed to be in a huge rush to get us out the door at 630 when they close at 7.
Revive Nails opens early, so that was a plus for me and only 1 other customer, which made me at ease. After a year without a real pedicure I was thrilled to get pampered, added a mani, and the hot stone massage on my legs.Lanie did a very nice job, but she did clip my skin, so thats one drawback, but shes not the first or last.Very clean, pleasant and payment online encouraged or cash. Ill be back!
Just finished getting a dip manicure with Brian. I love it! He was super nice and polite...
Jennie is an awesome tech! Very professional and efficient.
Great overall experience!!! The lady (Lyn) who did my pedicure, was AMAZING!!! And I WILL be back! Highly recommend this place. Everyone is so friendly too!
Lashes done by Diane. Really great quality and retention. Will be going only here from now on
Tina was awesome! She took my working feet and turned them into princess feet 😍 she was very kind and gentle. I chose the royal pedicure package $50, well with it. They also allow you time to let your nail dry before leaving. I do plan to return here again not only for another pedicure, but to try out their other services.
I went in for a manicure and pedicure. I was in major need of a pedicure because I am on my feet for both my jobs all day. Tammy was very sweet and attentive to my needs. She did an excellent job! I found my new nail place and definitely will be going back!
This was my first time going to Revive nails, and my friends also. There was a little bit of a wait at first to go in for our appointment, but once we were in the experience was awesome. The girl helping me was real friendly, and did an amazing job on my nails. She also took her time instead of rushing to finish up. I liked that my nail lady also made some conversation with me. The prices were also a good value. I will definitely be returning in the future, and telling all my friends and family about this nail salon!I am posting an update. I had a nail appointment on Saturday, and had another great experience! When I walked in I was taken to a chair right away for my manicure. The guy who helped me did a great job. After, I was taken over to the pedicure chairs, Tammy helped me there and she did a great job overall, she was friendly, and did my feet perfectly. It was such a relaxing experience. I will definitely be returning, and telling my friends about this place.
Lauren was absolutely amazing! I am so picky and can Be a little indecisive at times, but she had all the patience and did such an amazing job on my full set of nails. I was so pleased with the service the entire salon serves their customers. I had just came from a bad experience from another salon that did my pedi but I didn’t stay for my full set as I was so disappointed — I searched for other salons and found this salon minutes later. I loved it so much I brought my daughter a couple of days later and still the exact same wonderful service from Lauren and the entire team. Everyone is so sweet and work great together ! I definitely recommend this nail salon for anyone looking in the area!
Very sweet, helpful and quick. Will be going back.
Tammy does such a great job with my pedicure, as well as Lisa with my Manicure. My favorite spot to come!
LeLani was the best!!! Im a first timer and I will definitely be back! She took her time, was very gentle and really took care of me! I highly recommend..very clean and professional. The music was great too!
Great hot stone pedicure, great massage chair, just what I needed to relax thank you lani!
Had a groupon and they asked me to cancel it and pay cash. I didnt do that. I think they are trying to cut Groupon out of their fees
Lauren was great. My first time going to her and she was very polite and does a very detailed job! Everyone is very nice and salon is very well kept! For sure coming back!
I Went to get my nails filled. I have been back 3 times. They listen to what I wanted. ( big deal ) I also love the shape and my nails are not bumpy or thick. They always do a really good job and what I like the most is how long my nails last ..
Brian did dip manicure. Loved it. Super nice and listened to what I wanted. Always a nice experience here
I had the best pedicure I have ever had at any nail salon EVER! It was so great! The wax and stone massage was worth every penny! I felt like a princess! I’m new to the area and have gone to a couple of places and I feel like I’ve finally found my home for a “me day”. The customer service is unbeatable!
This was by far the best nail experience in forever ❤ The fresh clean air and my nails are perfect. Thank you girls🥰 and especially Tee for the pedicure, Dian for my on point nails and Lanie for doing a fabulous job on my super picky 18 year old. Totally worth every penny😍🧡🌻
Perfect pedicures and massages
The place is clean,but service is no good, pay whatever they charge the lady that did my nails not clean.
Lisa is always amazing. She treats your nails as if they are her own and she’s very picky with how your nails look. I will never see anyone but her!
I had Jennie she was so sweet and very professional. I talked to her like I talked to someone Ive known for years, she has such a great personality. I highly recommend her!!
I am so glad I found this hidden gem! Everyone is super friendly. Chloe is my go to person. She takes her time and pays attention to detail. Even when Chloe is not available I do feel comfortable with the other techs. I love that they have a great variety of colors for both dip and gel although I do recommend dip since it does last a lot longer than gel. Check this place out. I promise you will not be disappointed.
I got nightmare before Christmas nails I so happy with them Lisa was great
Quality was Greatly Lacking, and The Wait was INSANE
Everyone here is so nice and professional, I love going to Jennie for my nails.
Consistently good at pedicures and both gel dip and acrylic nails. Prices are on the higher side, but they do a good job and maintain a clean environment.
My first experience was better then my last 🤷🏽♀️
Ive been here a few times for a dip manicure and I love it. The customer service is always amazing and their work is always precise. Its a little bit expensive but the quality of their work makes it worth it, in my opinion. My fiancé went with me today for the first time and he enjoyed it as well :) The only thing is I do recomend making an appointment first since they can sometimes get pretty busy.
I had the greatest experience here. I did not have an appointment, and they were able to accommodate me right away. The service was great. I felt so pampered and not rushed like some nail salons. I was also able to enjoy a glass of wine that they offer at this salon. They truly aim to please here. Highly recommended!
I am very happy with the work and have followed my girl from various spans now at this location.
I went in for a fill & a replacement for 2 acrylic nails. She ended up making them VERY chunky and fat. My previous nails were long, skinny and thin. The 2 acrylics that were replaced were sticking upward instead of the normal downward and they’re shorter and fatter than all my other nails. It looks HORRIBLE. She also made my skinny, thin nails into fat, chunky ones and didn’t file or clean them properly. She filled my nails while there was still residue from taking off the gel on them. I will never be coming here again. Also was 50$ for a fill and 2 replacement nails.
Tee, did a wonderful job on my dip manicure
Dyan is an artist when it comes to nails and design. She is consistent, fast and always professional. I prefer the gel powder dip on my natural nails. It lasts till I have the color removed. I go every 3 weeks for my manicure, and Im a nurse, and very hard in my hands. The salon has a huge selection (overwhelmingly) of colors/styles to choose from. Try a sparkle ombre. its gorgeous!
Love my new S & S gel nails and James does an excellent job . . . and hes fast. Hes so great at shaping my nails, too. Love the way my gels last four weeks! Im very impressed with James and this salon. Happy customer.
Lauren always does an awesome job on my lashes. It’s worth the drive from La Mesa.
Would give this place 0 star rating but that isn’t an option. My daughter had nails put on, but they were don’t so badly that they pointed horizontal instead of flat, they also made her cuticles sore. My nails looked terrible.
This was my first time at Revive Nails. Lung did an excellent job. Even though the services were outside due to CoVid, the area was clean and the staff were professional and friendly!
I loved the girls there. So sweet.
Diane is great!!!!Is so terrific to be in the great outdoors and get my feet pampered. Smelled the flowers and soap and enjoyed the happy atmosphere around me though in the covered parking area! Good to see cheerful patrons as well. I felt save and special....no worries about the virus everyone was using protective guards!!!
Owner started yelling at us when they mismatched my daughters nails to toe nails. Oh, this was after 3.5hrs of waiting! We had an appointment at 2:30 and they started taking in walk in traffic after us and stopping on our work. The technicians are great but the owner is an emotional unstable person when confronted when there is a problem. Specifically he demanded we stay longer then the 3.5hrs we were already there to fix his mistakes. He completely lost it and was screaming at us. Even his employees were coming up giving us hugs apologizing for his unstable childish outburst. Techs are amazing but owner is nuts!
I been coming here for a year now and I love it. I always call and set an appointment with Chloe. I love that they are flexible and work with my schedule. Chloe is amazing she managed her time and is always ready when I get there. I suggest coming here.
Wonderful 1st tome to Revive. Beautiful mani/pedi. Friendly, safe & clean outdoor service - masks, socially distanced. Kind & meticulous service... since My last mani/pedi was in March! This is my new go to nail salon. 💕
Excellent Service!
I have been going to revive since they opened about 2 years ago. I always go to Chloe! She is amazing at what she does, I haven’t had any issues with her ever!Something I recommend as a loyal customer is to call and make appointments, they are busy and popular and if you don’t make an appointment you will be waiting for a little while. So make your life easier and schedule and appointment it takes less than 2 mins, literally.
Great spot for a pedi, and they take Venmo!
Lisa is the best nail technician I ever had!I been with her for about three years now, never had lifted nails or fungus I took my daughters for the first time, they loved it, Also pedicures I would recommend them all to anybody .just ask for Lisa when you want your nails acrylics, gel or dipped nails done,My daughter is very picky with her hombre look she absolutely said that’s the best I ever had done .I guarantee their work it’s awesome very nice place and very friendly everybody in there !
My #1 spa for my nails. Love it here,excellent service and clean place, the ladies are professional at what they do thats for sure but my favorite girl is Tee👌, such an amazing and talented girl.
I normally go to another place, but they are closed on Mondays and I needed to get them done prior to some interviews. I was hopeful with the reviews of this place, but I was not very impressed. They weren’t as detail oriented as I appreciate and they definitely did not do the full “five minute” massage included in the classic pedicure. I do not think I will be returning because it was definitely not worth the price tag. There are better places in the area. Overall- pretty disappointed.
Great new salon! Owner does perfect nails and eyebrows. Relaxing environment and comfortable chairs. Ive had both, natural gel and acrylic nails done evenly without the gel getting too thick and lasting without peeling off. Ive gotten many different designs on my nails, any nail art picture or idea can be done. I have gotten many positive comments on my nails and will continue to recommend people here!
Glad to be inside again! Very pleasant environment clean and comfortable.
I am impressef how they set up to take care of manicures and pedicures outside. All precaitions were taken to maintain social distancing and sanitation.
I have entrusted Kim with the care of my manicure and pedicure for the past 7 years. The quality of her work is outstanding. She is professional and gives individual care to her clients. She is highly trained, experienced and talented in beauty and personal care. I am always happy with her service and quality of care, and as a result, I refer my family and friends to her salon. Thank you Kim and Revive Nails & Spa quality service.
Kim has been doing my nails for almost 8 years! She does an amazing job and is always open to try all my crazy shapes and designs. I wont let anyone else touch my hands. Im so excited she now has her own salon because I know she will bring the level of expertise and excellence to her business that she shows in her work. Revive Nails & Spa is absolutely beautiful inside...amazing pedicure chairs and equipment, awesome products, a serene and calming palette, and very friendly and kind people. I wouldnt trust anyone else 😊
Kim has been taking care of my nails now for over a year and is top notch in knowing what her clients want, and always goes above and beyond. I have now followed her to her AMAZING new shop and you will not be disappointed. Even more centrally located for me now and right next to a Starbucks, so I can enjoy my drink all while being pampered. The shop is clean and above all relaxing and inviting with all brand new equipment and furniture. Go check them out, after your visit, you will never go anywhere else.
Being new to the area and having had the same manicurist for over 10 years, I am so happy to have found Revive Nails and Spa! Kim does a beautiful job with my nails and a fantastic pedicure. Gel had never worked for me in the past and she used natural gel and its perfect! Her new salon is beautiful, clean, and conveniently located. Im happy to see a hardworking, young family opening their own business. The services are great but most importantly they care about their clients and doing a good job. Congratulations Kim and wishing you great success!
Great pedicure I really love it
Lynn was so cheerful & precise. They were a bit late, 10-15 minutes.Thank you.
Love love love! The only place I will ever go to get powder dip! And their color selection is absolutely endless!
I love this place! They consistently do a great job of my dip nails. I highly recommend if you want dip nails that last up to 4 weeks. The only reason I go back after 4 weeks is the grow out, they nails do not chip!
I came here with a one month old who was a little fussy, they were so sweet!!! Carried on conversation the whole time, no awkward silence ever. I’ll definitely be coming back here!
Love this nail salon! Lanie is the absolute BEST FOR PEDICURES- no one better!James and Diane are awesome with nails as well. I live in Bressi and it’s a short drive on Melrose. Worth every mile👍👍👍👍👍
Best nail salon I’ve been to. Lanie did such a great job. Wish this Salon was in Washington state where I’m from. Will return again when visiting Vista CA. Thanks again Lanie!
I am so happy that I ‘discovered’ Revive Nails. The service is excellent, the staff is lovely and Lisa and Lynn are terrific!
Covid friendly. Fast and processional
The salon is nice and clean. Everyone is so friendly when You’re walking in. They are specialized at dipping powder manicure and offer lots of colors choices. It’s the best salon in the area.
Fantastic service. They were fast, I didnt have a lot of time so they did Mani/pedi at the same time! Very clean. Staff is extremely nice. Definitely recommend.
I love this place! Lauren did a full set of powder nails on me. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she did exactly how I wanted. I’ve been to many places ( I’m super super picky) and she is the best. I’d recommend her to anyone!
I’m a little torn because honestly my nails look great, but the overall experience was not great. I came in for a gel manicure which was $30 (slightly over industry standard). The table that I was sitting at had someone else’s nail clippings on what I’m assuming was an unclean towel (disgusting) and the technician did not look at me nor smile until she asked me if I would like to leave a tip as I was paying. The nails themselves look great but I’m concerned about the cleanliness and atmosphere of this salon.
Lisa is the best. So glad I found her. They also have a points system everytime you check in on their appointment computer with your phone number. Very accommodating
I’m very picky about the way my nails are done, and this place passed the test! I have very sensitive cuticles and nearly every place I’ve been too ends up cutting me badly. Not here! Excellent service!
Took my mom to get pedicures and we had a great time. The ladies were really nice and did a great job! The pedi chairs were comfy and had built in massagers. I would absolutely recommend this salon to anyone and be sure to ask for vivianne or diora. Theyre the best!
It was very nice.
Cute, clean, spacious salon. I stopped by twice within a week, once for a pedicure, once for a gel manicure.
This place really went above and beyond to ensure I had a great pedicure! The nail artist took a lot of care to make sure that no nail polish got on my skin and the place itself was extremely clean and professional! If I livied in the area this would definitely be my regular nail salon!
This is my only 2nd time hereIts Great!!!! Lisa is the Best. It is alittle bit far then I would like but have tried 4 different places closer to me. GREAT PLACE ....😀
Had my lashes done and absolutely love them!
Ive been going to Kim for a few years now, and Im so happy she has her own place! Shes the absolute best, and she is always so sweet. Kim always does an amazing job and I wont go anywhere else! 🙌🏻❤️
Lyn is amazing! She’s the reason I started to come to Revive. James & Lannie are also very amazing, they all do great work! Very relaxing place.
Absolutely horrible. After a long day I just wanted to get my nails done with a certificate that I had found from a girlfriend who gave it to me. Granted it was from the late December of 2017 and it is early 2019, it had absolutely NO expiration date telling me the time period I had to use it in. They took my friends money for the certificate and didn’t even provide the services she paid for, and that is illegal. I am astonished at them, it was embarrassing and now I still have dirty cuticles. I just wanted a nice relaxing time being able to be pampered...
