Nail Club

Got a pedi was great! I would make an appointment next time, I was lucky to have walking in at then best time. Loved my toes. They ready message your legs and feel is u get the works. Somewhat kid friendly. plenty of work stations.

I have been getting my nails done here for a few months. I prefer David for my acrylic nails. He’s quick, precise and knows what I like. He also has been available for quick nail repairs and last minute fills. Love this place. Also enjoy their pedicures. Everyone is really nice there and good at what they do.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
I came to Santa Cruz with my husband for our anniversary (weekend of the 7^th) and my husband booked an appointment here for me. They were absolutely awesome! Super nice and friendly. They were busy, but managed very well. The owner even called for backup to accommodate everyone. I had french tipped acrylics and french tip on my toes. They both came out BEAUTIFUL! One of my favorite experiences! And the prices were amazing!
HEADS UP: They only accept tips in cash. I didn’t mind it, but I had to go next door. But they did amazing so I didn’t mind.
I would DEFINITELY recommend and come back if I’m in town! Maybe I’ll make a special trip to get my nails redone in a little bit. Lol.

I have my favorite’s here and my least favorites but my pedicures by my favorites are beautiful and last for weeks. I have never gotten a manicure here but if I ever did I would be confident. Most of the time, even if you pick a lower priced pedicure package, they throw in a little extra scrub or massage.

Oddly enough I was at Nail Club only once and then went to Tiffany Nails (closer to home) in Capitola where I contacted the WORST case of athlete’s foot I ever had in my life. After I finally got that all cleared away, I went back to Nail Club (never should have gone anywhere else). Dealing with almost downtown traffic is the only thing I have against the place, and seriously, after LA, London, Boston and NYC, the traffic jams around here are a joke.
Nail Club is clean. Almost shiny clean. This is huge, IMO. The staff is friendly. You go there once and they ALWAYS remember you. Generally I do the manicure only (tight budget), but when I splurge, as I plan to do today, I do the mani/​pedi. They make you feel like a queen. The massage is loooong and wonderful. The prices are moderate and well worth it.
I’ve been to salons from here to London and back again. Nail Club is NOT my favorite. It’s my second favorite. My favorite salon was in NYC and they closed 25 years ago, so… hell of a commute from Santa Cruz, as well.
f you want to be pampered for a reasonable amount of do-​re-​mi and you love your nails to look good for weeks instead of days, visit the men and women at Nail Club. I don’t believe you will be disappointed.

Came here for the first time to try it out, walked in and was seated immediately. I had Vivian, I showed her a picture of exactly what I wanted and she made it happen!
She worked quickly yet paid attention to every detail I asked for.
They have glitter gel (about 20 colors) here whereas the places I’ve been to in the past didn’t have any glitter at all.

The manicurist made my cuticles bleed! And when I got my pedicure my big toe bled too! Theres now a big scab on it and it is painful too walk. They did such a hack job! DO NOT GO TO THIS NAIL SALON!!!

This place is terrible. Twice my manicure didn’t even last 24 hours. I’ll never go back.

Most of those stars are for sincerity and effort, not so much top quality experience but hey… they try.
Been here twice now, gel acrylics both times and a pedicure with massage package once. Pedicure was awesome, lasted forever and looked pretty. The massage was nice, exactly what I needed a good scrubbing and some hot stones. As for the acrylics, the first time David did them and they came out exactly how I wanted them, nice shape, not too thick, and a nice neutral shade of pink. The second time is where I minus a star… the lady who began doing my nails was really really nice and a total perfectionist which I LOVE and appreciate more than I can say because it doesn’t happen often, all the way up until the point of applying the acrylic… I felt like she hadn’t done acrylics too many times before. It was taking forever, they were way too thick, and totally uneven! I knew it could be fixed with filing but I was still starting to panic a little. Her saving grace was when I had mentioned I preferred thinner nails, she smiled and surrendered me over to David, admitting that he would do a better job. So I jump over to David’s station and a quick painless better job he did. My nails were perfect he completely fixed my one hand and completed perfectly my other. My nails look good, they were nice the whole time. No rude attitude. I’ll be back.

LOVE this place. Both David and Vivian have done my acrylics, and they are amazing! Gentle, too.
Annie and Lee have always given me great pedicures, too.
Fantastic place.

If you’re fine with a manicure lasting less than 12 hours, this is the place for you!
Got a manicure and pedicure on Tuesday night. By Wednesday afternoon all the nails on my right hand had chipped, plus the cuticles hadn’t been cleaned up at all. One nail on left was almost all the way chipped off. I came in with my own polish asking to fix it and they told me they’d have to charge me. This was my second time trying this place, I’ll never return (obviously) and I recommend you don’t either.

I previously reviewed that this place is pretty hit or miss. Well the last handful of times that I’ve been there, it’s been a hit! I had one gel manicure where Mai shaped my nails perfectly and every time I go back I ask for them to be kept the same shape. It’s worked out perfectly.
I’m addicted to a matte finish. To have this with the gel polish in the past, I’ve had to have an extra top coat put on and then buffed to a matte finish. It’s really labor intensive and I’ve only had it done at another business. Good news for me is that now there is a matte finish top cost offered in gel polish. The end result isn’t quite as matte as buffing, but it’s good enough for me.
Basically if you go here regularly they get to know your style and it works out really well.

Come when it’s slow otherwise prepare for at least a 30 min wait. I always ask for Holly she’s the best but I’m sure anyone here is great. The ladies are all very friendly. Love it. Works with my student budget ;)

What a wonderful pink & white set to Nail Club! I felt pampered when I walked in here. My sister recommended this place to me and I decided to check it out.
The place is very clean and colorful. They have a variety of nail polishes to choose from.
I am definitely getting my nails done more often now.

They have great OPI colors. The nail techs are really sweet to me. I got the gel color for my nail and after that, I got the full body massage, it’s $ 50 for 60mins. The tehnician massaged me from head to toes, very relaxing for such a reasonable price! The salon is super clean! All those things make me come back to this salon even it’s not near-​by my hourse.

Wow !!! I’ve been to Nail Club for eyelash extensions and facials. She’s fantastic with both! My eyelashes look natural and this is probably because she pays great attention to detail!
I definitely recommend Nail Club if you want an amazing facial and beautiful eyelashes! Plus, she’s one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. You will love her!

Had shellac nails done that were ok but got my lip waxed and ended up leaving with blisters and a breakout all over my lip. Came back the next day, and all they did was tell me to go but neosporin. Very disappointed.

I was pretty unsatisfied with this nail salon experience.
First off, upon walking in I noticed one of the staff adding something to a very old nail polish color bottle that seemed to make it seem fuller than it was? even though there was barely original product inside and that didn’t set very well with me.
Secondly, less than a day after my nails were done they were already chipping and destroyed. i went back to the nail salon because usually when I get my nails done i expect them to last at least around 5 days.
I went back and explained what had happened to my nails and they told me that I should only expect my nails to last a day and that if I wanted them to last longer I shouldnt shower or wash my hands and refused to refund me.
They also tricked me into getting a french manicure one of the times I had visited by telling me it was only $ 5 before and confused me about the price so I would agree to it and didnt want to acknowledge that they had clearly told me a french manicure was $ 5 when they shouldve been clear that is a $ 5 additional charge added to the cost of a normal manicure.
Overall I’m one who expects a nail job to last AT LEAST 5 days or so when I pay to get it done instead of doing it myself and this nail salon doesnt seem to be able to grasp that concept

Got a set of acrylics here, and I must say: I was very impressed! David, my nail tech, was extremely gentle and precise. He is a nail artist! The place is clean and the staff are friendly.

This is the place that I go to get my nails done! David is the absolute best hands down by far out of any other place that I have gone in all of California and where I have lived before! I have had other staff members do my nails and I didn’t feel they did very good and that’s why I gave this 3 stars instead of 4. I also docked it down one more star simply because it is a very generic nail place it is not upscale or top-​notch but you do get your moneys worth. If you go here be sure to request David in advance and you will get the best manicure you’ve ever had. If I were giving a rating for just David and getting my nails done I would give him five stars.
