It took him over two hours to do my nails because they all stop, go do other people's feet and nails, and then come back. They spend more time looking over everyone's heads at each other and talking than they spend on your nails. How very annoying. My nails came out badly painted on the sides, and he didn't put the goopy stuff all the way to the cuticles so they look like they've been growing for a few weeks. Read Less

Rude and nasty remarks made and questionable hygienic and sanitary measures. Clippers pulled out of a box? Were those clean/sterilized?? Hmmmm. I asked for a mani-pedi, they did a rush job on the pedicure, painted over my cuticles. When I asked about when my manicure would be done, they looked at each other and cracked jokes and made snide remarks in a different language and then ignored me. Manicure never done! My advice: STAY AWAY. Read Less

I got arcylics done there, they did such a bad job. Lady that was doing my nails didn't seem to care and rushed. Its been 4 days, my nails have air bubbles and paint is already coming off and its gel so they say, its supposed to last a long time. Also, she didn't paint my nails completely. NEVER GOING THERE AGAIN! I waisted $45 on a bad nail job. Read Less

I’ve only given one star because there is not an option to give less than that. I waited over 45 min for a simple manicure. After finally being taken to a chair, I waited another half hour. When the lady finally started on my nails, she had me place my hands on a CLEARLY dirty towel that had old nail polish, acrylic powder etc... She began to try and paint my nails BEFORE CUTTING THEM or trimming my cuticles. And when I asked about it, she rolled her eyes at me and just continued. She finished my nails in about 10 min with ONE coat of polish, without cutting them and without putting forth much effort at all, meanwhile all the women next to me where being given undivided attention and effort. I paid and tried to talk to the manager about my “manicure” to which he told me “no, it looks great.” Don’t waste your money. Stay home and have your 5 year old do your manicure. It’ll look 100 times better than what these people can do. Read Less

I was there yesterday and got my nails done. This morning I woke up to a disaster of a French Manicure. In less than 24 hours I went to fix my nails and the manager was very rude because I explained I did not like the way they looked. I had them cover my nails with a polish but while this happened the manager was talking about me to another client and I asked him to please not talk about me while I was right there. He kicked me out of the store! The store was full of people and it was very embarrassing and this is no way to treat a client. I didn’t mind to pay, I just wanted my nails to look great especially after paying for this. I will never go back there again, their customer service is really bad, and this business is all about customer service. Good luck to any of you that will go.

Sorry to the owner for posting such a negative review but last week being seen by the guy who sits closest to the door and the woman he passed me onto half way did such a poor set of full nails with gel.The guy brags that he has been doing nails for 35 years, but I think his training or standards of quality are poor.Having gotten my nails done elsewhere I am used to stunning quality, but trying your salon for the first time when I have lost my previous nail artist. I was do disappointed.The nail was not buffed enough prior to gluing the nail on, do today I hope back a week later because the nail has lifted off.  He went to place glue close to the cuticle but I showed him it has lifted do please place the glue under the nail....again I get yd he has been doing this for 25 yes, and people all day have been telling him what to do..hmm hint hint I feel.So he glued near the cuticle but not lifting the nail, so now I know I have an air-pocket between the top and the end of the cuticle, great if you want water under it and a fungal issue.But back to the work originally did.  Whilst working on my nails being St the front, he was the greeter/manager he tells me do every give minutes, interruptions.I don't believe he buffed my natural nail enough, hence a week later it lifting.  Ok, the acrylic powder he put on thick and rough.  His attempt to shape the acrylic  powder to look smooth and blended was not done with thick edges on one side and thinner on the other side.So the finish is poor to say the least.His girlfriend he tells me arrives do he gets up and says she will do the gloss gel coat, gets up and sits with another woman and begins hers.So the "girlfriend" shapes into the almond shape And begins painting them.The Polish looks old and thin And gluggy.  The two coats she does are very poor, unbalanced and not even.You can see the color variations very easily in s normal lit too.  No depth of color, a few air bubbles and uneven color.Sorry guys but not coming back and wasting my money.* I uploaded photos to show the quality.The finish acrylic powder was Read Less

STOLE MY MONEY! Rude manager and very unfair. The lady who did my nails was nice even though she tried the usual up sell. I did a pedicure and only took my gel off my hands. I did not do a manicure but she did ONE clear coat which took 2 seconds.  He charged me the same as a manicure for the clear nothingness done to my nails. He said it didn't matter and was very rude.

I would give them no stars if that was an option. Came in with my teenage daughter on Monday looking to get her a manicure. They told us to sit down and they would get us next. Wait for 20 minutes, when a women and her kid walked in and said she wanted acrylics and a manicure for her kid. They told her to take a seat and also wait. Now we (my daughter and me) have been waiting 35 minutes. Then the head guy takes the women and her kids to the back to get them started and totally ignores me and my daughter. When he comes back I told home that we were there first and why did he take them first. He states that they took them first because they are spending more money then we were. I was shocked and super pissed by then. I told my daughter we were leaving and that would go somewhere else. I told the guy that there customer service was shitty and I would never come back. That I would also be telling people about their service. He didn't seem to care and just turned and walked away. Theirs were plenty of witnesses that heard what he said. I hope that they are smart and go somewhere else. Please don't give them your business. They don't care about anything except padding their pockets. Read Less

While the salon seemed very clean the staff seemed very overworked and not too happy. I think this is due to the fact that no matter the wait time the owner stacks people in the pedi chairs to wait and wait and wait. My 80 year old mother and I sat with our feet in water for 35 minutes. Mine got cold so I asked for more hot water only to have it go cold again. The tech got grumpy when my mother asked for her nails to be cut a little shorter and seemed upset when she forgot her sandals and asked for somewhere to sit while her toes finished drying. My tech seemed to be taking out her frustrations on my feet scrubbing much too intensely causing my arch to hurt and pounded on my legs as if trying to hurt me. Job ended up looking okay but it was a thoroughly unpleasant experience. I witnessed several woman asking about the wait time only to be told to pick a color and told what chair to sit in. One woman got up dried her feet off and left. I will not return. Read Less

You get what you pay for here. Prices are cheap, but I sat with my feet in cold water in a non-working massage chair for almost 30 minutes before someone finally was available to start my pedicure. She only exfoliated and worked the cuticles on one foot, then quickly put on polish. The polish ended up on skin in some areas and bubbled up in others because she was trying to work so fast. Perhaps if they'd been honest and asked me to come back at a certain time my experience would have been better. I wouldn't recommend going here, unless it's a nail emergency. Read Less

I was recommended this place by my bank teller because I noticed her nice nails!I had a bad experience at another Nail Salon in town and came here hoping to have a new "go-to" nail place. Sure enough, the staff and service have won me over! The nail technicians that I've had so far are well trained and pretty skilled. They practice hygienic procedures during the manicures and pedicures which is important. And the husband and wife own the place are very friendly and professional.The only bummer is that they can get really busy. When I came in with my friend during July 4th weekend for example, I felt the quality of service went down. But the fact that they are so popular says a lot about the business so I let that go. I just try to go mid week during the early afternoons now. Read Less

I've been a customer of CA nails for about 4 years, as long as I've lived in Santa Fe. I live on the other side of town with a nail salon next to my house but the owners have always been incredibly kind and efficient with great prices so I've continued to go here. Today my experience was otherwise and I don't believe I'll ever go back. I arrived at 6:15 to a full nail salon acknowledging that I would have to wait. The owner who recognized me said hello and to go to seat 6 for my pedicure. I understood that I would have to wait but I proceeded to sit there for 45 minutes without anyone saying anything to me, with everyone else being helped. The water my feet were in had gone cold, 4 ladies who came after me had been helped, and I still had not been assisted. I got out of my chair, put on my shoes with wet feet, and left. As I was leaving the owner said "sorry". I felt very disrespected and not valued as a regular customer. Read Less

I’ve only given one star because there is not an option to give less than that. I waited over 45 min for a simple manicure. After finally being taken to a chair, I waited another half hour. When the lady finally started on my nails, she had me place my hands on a CLEARLY dirty towel that had old nail polish, acrylic powder etc... She began to try and paint my nails BEFORE CUTTING THEM or trimming my cuticles. And when I asked about it, she rolled her eyes at me and just continued. She finished my nails in about 10 min with ONE coat of polish, without cutting them and without putting forth much effort at all, meanwhile all the women next to me where being given undivided attention and effort. I paid and tried to talk to the manager about my “manicure” to which he told me “no, it looks great.” Don’t waste your money. Stay home and have your 5 year old do your manicure.

I was there yesterday and got my nails done. This morning I woke up to a disaster of a French Manicure. In less than 24 hours I went to fix my nails and the manager was very rude because I explained I did not like the way they looked. I had them cover my nails with a polish but while this happened the manager was talking about me to another client and I asked him to please not talk about me while I was right there. He kicked me out of the store! The store was full of people and it was very embarrassing and this is no way to treat a client. I didn’t mind to pay, I just wanted my nails to look great especially after paying for this. I will never go back there again, their customer service is really bad, and this business is all about customer service. Good luck to any of you that will go. I won’t come back to a place that disrespected me as a costumer and I’m sure I’m not the first .. Read Less

Sorry to the owner for posting such a negative review but last week being seen by the guy who sits closest to the door and the woman he passed me onto half way did such a poor set of full nails with gel.The guy brags that he has been doing nails for 35 years, but I think his training or standards of quality are poor.Having gotten my nails done elsewhere I am used to stunning quality, but trying your salon for the first time when I have lost my previous nail artist. I was do disappointed.The nail was not buffed enough prior to gluing the nail on, do today I hope back a week later because the nail has lifted off.  He went to place glue close to the cuticle but I showed him it has lifted do please place the glue under the nail....again I get yd he has been doing this for 25 yes, and people all day have been telling him what to do..hmm hint hint I feel.So he glued near the cuticle but not lifting the nail, so now I know I have an air-pocket between the top and the end of the cuticle, great if you want water under it and a fungal issue.But back to the work originally did.  Whilst working on my nails being St the front, he was the greeter/manager he tells me do every give minutes, interruptions.I don't believe he buffed my natural nail enough, hence a week later it lifting.  Ok, the acrylic powder he put on thick and rough.  His attempt to shape the acrylic  powder to look smooth and blended was not done with thick edges on one side and thinner on the other side.So the finish is poor to say the least.His girlfriend he tells me arrives do he gets up and says she will do the gloss gel coat, gets up and sits with another woman and begins hers.So the "girlfriend" shapes into the almond shape And begins painting them.The Polish looks old and thin And gluggy.  The two coats she does are very poor, unbalanced and not even.You can see the color variations very easily in s normal lit too.  No depth of color, a few air bubbles and uneven color.Sorry guys but not coming back and wasting my money.* I uploaded photos to show the quality.The finish acrylic powder was Read Less

I would give them no stars if that was an option. Came in with my teenage daughter on Monday looking to get her a manicure. They told us to sit down and they would get us next. Wait for 20 minutes, when a women and her kid walked in and said she wanted acrylics and a manicure for her kid. They told her to take a seat and also wait. Now we (my daughter and me) have been waiting 35 minutes. Then the head guy takes the women and her kids to the back to get them started and totally ignores me and my daughter. When he comes back I told home that we were there first and why did he take them first. He states that they took them first because they are spending more money then we were. I was shocked and super pissed by then. I told my daughter we were leaving and that would go somewhere else. I told the guy that there customer service was shitty and I would never come back. That I would also be telling people about their service. He didn't seem to care and just turned and walked away. Theirs were plenty of witnesses that heard what he said. I hope that they are smart and go somewhere else. Please don't give them your business. They don't care about anything except padding their pockets. Read Less

While the salon seemed very clean the staff seemed very overworked and not too happy. I think this is due to the fact that no matter the wait time the owner stacks people in the pedi chairs to wait and wait and wait. My 80 year old mother and I sat with our feet in water for 35 minutes. Mine got cold so I asked for more hot water only to have it go cold again. The tech got grumpy when my mother asked for her nails to be cut a little shorter and seemed upset when she forgot her sandals and asked for somewhere to sit while her toes finished drying. My tech seemed to be taking out her frustrations on my feet scrubbing much too intensely causing my arch to hurt and pounded on my legs as if trying to hurt me. Job ended up looking okay but it was a thoroughly unpleasant experience. I witnessed several woman asking about the wait time only to be told to pick a color and told what chair to sit in. One woman got up dried her feet off and left. I will not return. Read Less

You get what you pay for here. Prices are cheap, but I sat with my feet in cold water in a non-working massage chair for almost 30 minutes before someone finally was available to start my pedicure. She only exfoliated and worked the cuticles on one foot, then quickly put on polish. The polish ended up on skin in some areas and bubbled up in others because she was trying to work so fast. Perhaps if they'd been honest and asked me to come back at a certain time my experience would have been better. I wouldn't recommend going here, unless it's a nail emergency. Read Less

I was recommended this place by my bank teller because I noticed her nice nails!I had a bad experience at another Nail Salon in town and came here hoping to have a new "go-to" nail place. Sure enough, the staff and service have won me over! The nail technicians that I've had so far are well trained and pretty skilled. They practice hygienic procedures during the manicures and pedicures which is important. And the husband and wife own the place are very friendly and professional.The only bummer is that they can get really busy. When I came in with my friend during July 4th weekend for example, I felt the quality of service went down. But the fact that they are so popular says a lot about the business so I let that go. I just try to go mid week during the early afternoons now. Read Less

I've been a customer of CA nails for about 4 years, as long as I've lived in Santa Fe. I live on the other side of town with a nail salon next to my house but the owners have always been incredibly kind and efficient with great prices so I've continued to go here. Today my experience was otherwise and I don't believe I'll ever go back. I arrived at 6:15 to a full nail salon acknowledging that I would have to wait. The owner who recognized me said hello and to go to seat 6 for my pedicure. I understood that I would have to wait but I proceeded to sit there for 45 minutes without anyone saying anything to me, with everyone else being helped. The water my feet were in had gone cold, 4 ladies who came after me had been helped, and I still had not been assisted. I got out of my chair, put on my shoes with wet feet, and left. As I was leaving the owner said "sorry". I felt very disrespected and not valued as a regular customer. Read Less
