Elegant Nails

I have visited Elegant Nails two times now and have enjoyed the experience each time. My last visit was particularly wonderful. They accepted me 45 minutes before close for a pedicure and shellac nails. The services took us way over closing but they remained friendly and accommodating, and didn’t rush the service at all. That’s quality! The prices are well within reason and worth the quality. This will remain my nail location.

Love love love this nail salon! My gel nail polish could last over a month easily. I am a perfectionist and can honestly say I am very pleased each and every time I have my nails done. All the employees are very nice. Definitely recommend!!! Ps the prices are also killer! (:

I had an awful experience here. I came in with a friend for pedicures and was told to come back in 45 min. We came back in 45, and still had to wait a half hour. The waiting area doubles as the place you sit and wait for nails to dry, and it was very cramped. We were called for our pedicures, and sat down in the chairs to find that they were very old and did not function properly. When my friend turned it on, it started making a loud grinding noise. We were left sitting with our feet in the water for over 10 min, then my friend’s pedicure began. After 15 minutes, my feet are still sitting soaking in the room temperature water, getting all shriveled up. I took them out of the water, and the woman doing my friend’s pedicure stops and starts taking off the polish on my nails. She took off the polish and told me to put my feet back in the water, which I did. After it became clear that there was no one there to do my pedicure, and she planned on beginning mine after she finished that one, I said I would have to skip on the pedicure because we were going to be late somewhere (which was true… this whole thing took well over 2 hours, and I left without a pedicure). I would have appreciated honesty from the beginning– they did not have the personnel or space for the two pedicures, which would have been fine! I would have gladly came back another day.

I’ve been here a few times now. I haven’t gotten a gel manicure in a while, every time I have received one the gel nail polish has peeled off within a few days. My first gel manicure from here lasted for 2 ½ weeks and was still in good condition when I came in today. They do an amazing job and all of the employees are so nice! I did not have to wait either time that I came in and I did not make an appointment. I found my new nail salon!

I would do no stars if it let me. I walked in and asked for a full fill for my gel nails. They said okay. Turns out, they don’t do gel nails, but put a gel clear coat on top of their acrylic or fiberglass nails and call it good. I was frustrated but they needed to be filled and they didn’t look bad either. That was on Friday (November 6). It is now Sunday (November 8) and they are falling off and getting those bubbles under the nails where you could slide a card under to pull the nail off if you were done with nails. So now I’m going to have to spend more money elsewhere to get them done AGAIN. I should have just paid for a full new set at this rate :(

Trying to get a 2 color fill and they only have 1 person working. They don’t close till 7 but said they can’t take me but will make an appointment for tomorrow. No thank you with a missing nail I can’t wait till tomorrow. Wow as I sit here writing this review in the parking lot I see a girl walk in a get seated with service as another tech comes from the back. I won’t be back after that service, a bit discriminatory.

I tried this place for my last 3 pedicures. I have been really happy. Juliet gives a great pedicure. The polish lasts and she is very thorough. The price is very reasonable and highly recommend getting your nails done here.

I’m currently sitting here getting my pedicure and I couldn’t wait to write this review. I also just got a gel French Tip manicure and I love it!
I’ve been looking for a nail salon that provides quality and won’t leave me bankrupt — which is hard to find these days! With my wedding coming up in a week, in an area I’m not quite familiar with (I just moved here) I was really scared to pay for a mani/​pedi and end up not liking it before the big day! Especially with a week in between as today is the only free day.
Walking in I was greeted with a smile and asked for a brochure with their prices, I’ll post a picture! I was seated and they gave me an iced cold water bottle while waiting :)
The husband did my manicure and it was probably the best manicure I’ve ever gotten! There was absolutely no rush in what he was doing and frequently asked me if what he was doing was what I wanted. I also posted a picture of the outcome I’m very happy about!
The wife is currently doing my pedicure and was apologetic about me waiting (which wasn’t that long) due to another customer asking for another coat. It’s nice to know how genuinely nice they are towards their customers. While doing my toes she made small talk about the wedding and just like her husband, she frequently asked if I liked the direction she was going in.
I don’t think I’ve been so pleased with a nail salon before! I’m definitely coming back and probably have my traveling bridesmaids stop by here.

I’ve never had my nails done so perfectly in my life and I am not exaggerating. I’m from Seattle, Wa and my husband and I drove to Sacramento to attend a wedding and visit family. Before the trip, I didn’t have time to do my nails so as soon as we drove into Sacramento at 7:30pm I called all nail salons near by if they would take me in. Even though elegant nails was near to closing, they said they would take me and my sister in for shellac and toe paint. My did my nails and her husband did my sister’s nails. I kept thinking I was going to get charged with a mani and pedi (it’s happened before) because of all the extra work My did, and I reminded her I just wanted shellac and toe paint and she confirmed that’s what she was doing. She treated every nail with the most utmost perfection and care. Even though we were way past closing, My and her husband took their time and didn’t rush. Later that night I stubbed my toe into a chair (ouch) and my nail polish chipped off. In the morning I rushed back before the wedding to have it painted over. My had a busy salon but she left what she was doing to help me. She wanted to take off the toe nail polish that was left and do a complete redo with two coats polish one coat clear polish. I was flattered but seeing she had a lot of people already waiting and I was in a hurry myself, I asked just for a quick paint over. So that’s what she did but she insisted on giving me the entire nail polish bottle with me just in case I need to use it. In all my years of having my nails done back in Seattle, Wa I’ve never had this great of an experience. My shellac back home would take the nail technician 15min tops, and it would start peeling and cracking 4 – 5 days later. In a week I was already going back to have them professionally remove my shellac because it looked so horrendous. I’m a dental hygienist so I work a lot with my hands and my nails naturally are weak and break very easily. This is two and a half weeks later and my shellac still looks beautiful, even though they need a fill. No cracks no chips, and I’ve received so many compliments on my nails. I didn’t even know it was possible shellac could stay this beautiful for the two weeks that every nail salon promises. My and her husband truly work hard for quality and care. I’m so sad I can’t be a continuing customer because I never found a nail salon close to home that I consistently go to. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could and will definitely hold off on getting my nails done when we visit Sacramento again. Such a good price for the best quality at elegant nails!!!

So I called at 5 today 6÷4÷15 to ask if I could come in and was told that I could come at 5:30 so I rushed over there walked in the door and was stared at rudely mind you the place is the size of a shoe box and looks like a hoarder lives there anyway only to be told after I said hi I’m Jessica I Had an appt @5:30 I called 30 mins ago, «what!!! what!!! what!!! you never called here and i took out my phone and said this is elegant nails right this is your number and showed her!!! She says well you can wait 30 mins and I’m like already waited 30 mins so another looks up and say well there’s two other nail salons around the corner! Well good to know you don’t want my business because now you’ll never get it!!! I suggest everyone steer clear of this ghetto, unprofessional, hoarders den!!!

I LOVE this place! If you want incredible nails at an incredible price, then come here. I am downright OCD about my nails. If they are too thick or if something is off about them, I will be disappointed in them and tear them off. I always walk out of this salon with nothing but sheer love for my nails! As far as the pedicures go, they do an excellent job of getting rid of the calluses by putting this gel or something all over your feet and scrubbing them off. Then they clean up your feet and toes really well. The regular polish lasts me at least two weeks. The massage isn’t the best, but who cares? The toes and the feet are immaculate and the price is only about $ 20! I will take a perfect pedi for cheap and get over the massage. I have finally found a great nail salon in the Sacramento area!

Love this place and the people. They are nice friendly and do a wonderful job. Prices are right, clean tools and chairs, and peaceful. Come here!

I took my sister here for her birthday. I’m extremely picky when it comes to my nails. If I want them to look like a 5 year old did them I would do them myself. But here they take their time, it’s almost like artwork to them. We were there for a little over an hour and it was perfect. The floor isn’t the cleanest. But they are super sweet and did a fabulous job on both of us! We will definitely be back. Also, like the other reviews make sure you block out plenty of time. Don’t go in expecting to be out in 45 minutes, it’s not happening.

I’ve been going to Elegant Nails for over 25 years! I followed them when they moved locations, they are that good. My and Mot are sweet and hard working people who do a fantastic job at a very reasonable rate. Highly recommend this salon!

I came here wanting to get my nails done a specific way and the lady that owns this place had already 3 clients so she told me it would be about a 30 minute wait. It was definitely worth my wait because i had showed her a picture of how i wanted my nails and she took her time making sure it was just like the picture. She kept asking to see if she should could see the picture while she was working on my nails, which i appreciated. She told me she closed at 7 when i asked her what time they close and i didnt get done with my nails until 8:30pm. I loved how she took her time and l felt like i wasnt rushed even when they were still doing my nails past the time they close. Also, when i was leaving an asian guy who worked their chased me down to give me my water i left and i thought that was the sweetest thing!!! I will definitely be coming back to this place!!!

They are always so nice and I always leave with the best manicure. Five stars from me!

I came on Valentine’s day, my usual nail place was too far away for me to drive with my eyes dilated, so I came here. And I got a fill and a pedicure… very rushed job still have some bumps that they didn’t shave down. Also I didn’t get color on my nails but for one finger and they still charged me the full extra amount for the gel polish. Also the gel color they put on my toes was not the one I wanted but were going to charge me to take it off and to put another one on so I left with it. I can’t wait to go to my original nail place and get this corrected.

Super sweet owner and her husband (Im assuming). Literally the nicest people! I read on other reviews they had $ 20 gel manicures and I was hoping that was true, and it absolutely was! Great price… very meticulous. Had a gel manicure and pedicure for $ 40! Can’t really beat that. As far as I could tell there’s only one type of pedicure but it was perfectly fine. As another reviewer said, don’t be in a rush if you’re coming in… give yourself at least 1.5 hours of getting toes and nails done. But well worth it!

I drove by this place the other day and saw a sign that said 20 dollar pedicures and manicures. Well, I decided to give it a try. They are very attentive and gentle, they don’t rush the process at all. I have tried many other places around town and really like this place the best, plus it’s the best price I have found.

My and her husband are very nice and accommodating. They remember the names of their regulars and offer you water while you get your nails done. They do an excellent job and for only $ 20 for a gel manicure. My only complaint is because they do such a meticulous job, it can be time consuming. One time it took an hour and a half for just a gel manicure. However, they do last a solid two weeks (at least) usually without chips/​cracks. If you are in a rush, go someplace else. But it you want it done well and have the time, this is the place!
