Magnolia Nail Spa

Kevin put a new set of pink and whites on a couple months ago, and I got tons of compliments. Had a different person do my fills because he wasn’t there, and she did a horrible job. The pink wasn’t pink they were thick and completely out of shape. I had to reshape them once I got home. When it was time for another fill, I went to a completely different salon. She did a little better job but they were still not pink and white, and a little out of shape. Which I had to reshape when I got home. Finally got in to see Kevin again today and he had to put a whole new set on and start over. They now look wonderful. Perfectly square just like I wanted them, and not at all thick. I will never have anyone else do my nails!
Thanks Kevin, my nails looks awesome!!!

Horrible Service. I don’t even know where to begin… could not pay me to return

Always happy when I leave this spot! Everyone is always nice when I’m there. They close at 7pm and Helen stayed til 7:30pm to do my nails, I’m so grateful for them taking me even though I was running a little late! Most people would have an attitude, Rush, or do a bad job, BUT Helen was nice to me and took her time to give me my perfect set!!! Thank you for always taking care of me magnolia nail spa, you guys are the best!
Also, don’t worry if your regular nail tech is busy or not there because they are all equally amazing here
Goin to Vegas with perfect nails now!

i’ve been looking for a good nail salon since forever and i’ve found it! thank you kevin for my beautiful nails, and making my nails look great for my trip! :)

My favorite nail salon! And on top of over all being best in the area they also carry the best prices!!! I have never waited more than 10 minutes. and I’m always a walk in. Maybe I’m just good at avoiding busy times, but I have walked in on weekends as well and never had to wait long. However, I’d be happy to wait since every one there has done amazing gel manicures and pedicures for me, and the price just cannot be beat! My favorite manicure ever is the R2D2 design! (I never get designs. but in honor of the force awakens I felt the need to) I cannot remember who did them. I just called and asked for an appointment with someone good at doing difficult designs and they scheduled me for the next day! And it was cheaper than just getting glitter on one nail at other salons! I’ll definitely be considering designs more often now!

I’ve been coming here for a couple of years now. It’s clean people are friendly. I don’t have a specific person because they all do a good job. My only issue is that when I make an appointment I always have to wait. They don’t honor customers times and fill those appointment times with walk-​ins. It can be pretty frustrating when you have things to do and places to go. There have been times when I’ve been there for over two hours because of it. That’s just too much.

Let me start off by saying that I’m only giving this nail spa a ⁴⁄₅ stars because Van (the owner) was an extremely humble and sweet person who deserves all the success in the world.
However, I did not have the greatest first experience there. Especially during the beginning of my visit. My friend has thoroughly explained how rude Eric aka naildesignsbyeric. The two stars that was taken off was due to Eric’s incapability to handle himself in a mature and professional manner. In fact, I would probably have given this place a one star had it not been for Van.
I ended up paying 77 $ total for a full set (all white nails with a design on both ring fingers) and the platinum pedicure package. This includes 5 $ tip for Van and 5 $ for the lady who worked on my pedicure.

I have to Agree with April S. The service has gone down Hill. As I am writting this review, I am still digusted at the attitude I received. At first, as the girl was doing my Nails I was very pleased she truly is good at doing nails. And at first she was really sweet.
But what set this bad review is, the unprofessional body language I received after I had nicely told the girl, «you know what, I actually don’t like the glider on top» her first reaction was «You need to tell me before You let the gel set in» she had to pretty much start all
Over with the gel manicure (remove it, file nails, etc…) fine, I get that I «messed up» by not telling her immediately.
The whole time she re-​did my nails, you could tell how pissed off she was, she didn’t even say a word after, didn’t even ask me again if I liked how she had redone the French line… there was pure awkward silence from her. I was feeling so bad, I thought of giving her a $ 20 tip, to make up for her extra work… but then I thought… no! Why should I reward her attitude… anyways, point being is that this is a business and I just wish that she would have been a bit nicer about it. I was genuinely feeling bad about all the extra work she did and I, not once gave her attitude. Which I am sure a different customer probably would have been way meaner and Less understanding. I wanted to give 1 star, But the extra star given is only because I did actually like my Nails. Without the bad attitude, and If the business knew how to handle dissapointed/​unhappy customers this place would desserve 4 stars…
If by chance, the Owner or Management reads this review, I am Willing to remove this review and add a positive one if they message me here and somehow change my mind. As of now, I will no longer visit this place and much less recommend it…

I have been getting my nails done here for over a year. If I went during the day on a weekday, when it was slow, they always did a nice job. However, if it is even slightly busy they do a poor job.
I have found that the quality and service have gone downhill significantly over the last 3−4months. I have been cut (to the point that I was bleeding profusely) twice. The nail techs acted like it didn’t happen and when I said something they became indignant and behaved as if it were no big deal. I have gotten eye-​rolls, sighs, and overall apathetic attitudes from techs– especially if you ask for a regular mani/​pedi.
Basically I’m looking for a new nail salon– which shouldn’t be difficult as there are 3 others with in 1 block of this one. I would suggest you keep looking as well, unless of course you’d like to be maimed!

One of my friend’s had suggested this place because I’d see on her snapchat of her beautiful nail job and I decided to give it a try.
I came in randomly on a weekday and luckily-​for me-​it wasn’t busy, but was told normally they are but because of the construction it looks closed.
Anyways, the staff was very welcoming. While waiting, they provided water which was nice. I’m brain farting on the name of the man, I believe it was Eric ^_​^;? who did my nails but he did an AWESOME job and was very nice. I was explaining to him my horrible experience at a different nail salon so he took good care of me! What was different was how he removed the gel, first he soaked it then scraped? It off, where other places I’ve been to uses the drill. I’m glad he did it that way because the last time I got my nails done, I got nicked a few times by the drill :(.
My biggest thing with getting a manicure is how they remove cuticles and he did a fantastic job because he was very thorough and it made my nails look super clean and soft. He also did a clean paint job as well.
They also had more color choices than the salon I used to go to. I will definitely come back to get some fancy design ;p

I don’t live in California so finding a nail salon I figured would be difficult. I Unilocaled the closest one and this place came up with good reviews. The price was great and I loved my toes. So much cheaper than Arizona for some odd reason. Anyway I am very happy and will go back every time I come to town.

Came yesterday for a much needed mani-​pedi after a recommendation from a friend.
Pros: Variety of gel colors with matching regular polish. Prices were average. Place looked clean. I would recommend Dawn who did a great job on my hands.
Cons: They won’t add your tip on to a credit charge. I was asked to walk to the Albertsons. I mean, you’re already using my card so why not just add the tip to it? The con which may probably deter me from coming there though is the way they «cleaned» their foot soak tubs. I saw one of them wipe it with a sponge that may or may not have had any disinfectant on it and then use one of the already used towels from the floor to wipe the seat cushion. Another one of the women used what looked like hand soap to clean the other tub.
No matter how great they do a pedicure, I also don’t want foot fungus. Unless they change the way they clean, I don’t think I’ll be coming back.

This was my first time here today. I’ll start with the negatives: not enough colors, foot soak tub could have been cleaned better between services.
Positives: Omg I loved Juky! She did my pedicure and she was so fun and sweet. She even timed my massage so I’d get the full time. She took my ingrowns out painlessly and without causing any bleeding. My calluses were removed without pain or tickling too! She made sure I was relaxed and having a good time the whole time. I will definitely be back and asking for her!!!

I love this spot! Found it on Unilocal.Second time I’ve been here and it was even better than the first. Jenny was very sweet and didn’t mind skipping the gloves due to my latex allergy. I got the Platinum Pedicure and it was worth every penny! She did a perfect French paint job as well. I’ll be back to see her again soon.

I was referred here from a friend. I am extremely picky when it comes to getting my nails done. Dawn took care of me and gave me exactly what I asked for. I absolutely love my acrylic/​gel manicure! The prices are reasonable and the service is warm, welcoming and most of all genuine. I think I found my new beauty home, Thank You Magnolia!!!

Lovely shop with nice massage pedicure chairs. They do great nails!
I recommend Nancy for eyelash extensions! They look really natural :).

I come here all the time get my nails and toes done. They do an amazing job with nail art designs! Always gentle and always use brand new supplies. Love love love!!!

I seriously hate it when places our not honest with their prices I specifically came here wanting ombré on my nails. They said it is 8 dollars extra. They tried to do ombré and was not successful and then I told them just paint half of my nails glitter than since u can’t do ombré the Tech NANCy had the nerve to still charge me ombré and did not tell me until after it was done. She stated that she took time to put glitter on two coats. As she told me this and she was finishing up my nails she was filing her own nails as well wtf is that I’m never comin back. Yes nails turned out ok but their frieken liars and make sure u ask before u get nails done while they talked shit about me in vietnamese little did they know I understood cuz I’m part viet.

Love this place!
Came across this salon when I was in need of a salon open early enough for me to get a mani/​pedi before heading out to Palm Springs for my company holiday party. I came across Magnolia – and thought that the 9am open time was a typo. Gave them a call and sure enough they were – and they were able to put me down for a 9am appointment the following day.
I got there right at 9 and I was the only one (as I thought I would be)…but thank goodness I made an appointment, bc within 15 minutes, every chair was taken.
So what makes this a 5 star review? My gel mani with Kim. She’s wonderful! Warm and friendly… and she’s just simply – very good at what she does. I wanted to do something fun with my gel mani and showed her a picture from Pinterest. She duplicated it almost exactly. Gorgeous! I think it might have been my favorite mani to date!
Massage was on point – strong pressure, just the way I like it. Overall, such a great experience!
Oh…if there’s one gripe I have about this place – it would probably be their selection of nude colors. It’s pretty non existent… there were probably 2 – 3 colors top to choose from. But that’s just me being a bit picky – just because I’m on a nude nail kick.
Overall – love this place!

After almost 2 years of not getting my nails done I thought it was time to start going back to the salon. I needed to get my nails done for my friends wedding and I really wanted to try a new place. So I busted out my phone and on Unilocal I went. Up popped Magnolia nail salon, it got great ratings and I figured why not, it’s in my neighborhood.
Magnolia is located off Spring St & Palo Verde Ave. in the Stater Bros. shopping center near the O’Riley’s auto shop and Little Cesar Pizza. Parking can be a bit hectic and there may be a teeny walk but nothing crazy.

I went in on a Friday afternoon and fortunately I just missed a large wedding party that was leaving as I walked in (thanks goodness!). It’s a small business and it looks like they were going for the Tiffany blue and white motif. It felt a bit cluttered but I suppose they needed to make use of every space available. I did like the horse picture/​portrait on the wall, but what really peeked my interest were the sings around the salon saying that if you wrote them a Unilocal review you would get a $ 10.00 discount off your next visit; Ten dollars that’s quite a bit in the world of nails.
After waiting a bit for one of the girls to become available, I was directed to my seat where my nail lady met me. I didn’t catch her name but she was super sweet. I told her how I liked my nails done. Overall she did a good job, but I’ve had a prior nail guy who was amazing and always did my nails just perfect.
I do like this location, but I don’t feel like I can give them a higher star rating at this point. I will give them another try hopefully next time my nails will be a bit more to my liking. Next time too I will try their pedicures and see how that goes.
