Best Nail Salons In Berkeley

“Love these two sisters..beyond sweet, artists in their own right and amazing women/parents (all three of their daughters received full rides to UC Universities). I can't say enough. I called at the last minute and they got me in right away, paid for my parking , went above and beyond for an unbelievable price point. I will continue driving all the way from Marin to enjoy E'lan. I recommend you do the same, I promise you won't be disappointed!!!“

“Got the special pedicure - was very pleased with the service and the atmosphere. Clean, relaxing and thorough. Definitely will be back! Thank you :)“

“Hidden gem! I love coming here for eyebrow threading....Precise, quick work and Deepa is always so gentle.“

“The nail technician Imie is incredibly sweet. She took care of my ingrown toe nail extremely well! She was so gentle and methodical. This salon also uses the best non-toxic polish! Wonderful, clean salon, wonderful staff! I can understand why there is a long waitlist but I promise this place is worth the wait! Imie truly cares about her clientele! Forever thankful for how accommodating and kind she was so that I could go into my hiking trip as painlessly as possible!“

“10/10!! I go to Maya for my lashes and Sarah for my hair. I’ve been seeing them for over 3 years now and I couldn’t recommend more!! Sarah is so super skilled, thoughtful on cut and what she recommends. I get all of my hair products from her now too. My hair hasn’t been this healthy, thick or long in forever!! Maya has an amazing attention to detail and I literally always know that my lashes will turn out good - so much so that I sometimes forget to look at them before walking out!! Thank you both so much for always making me feel my best!!“

“Lan is always fantastic! I've got very curly hair and I don't trust it with anyone else:) everyone is always friendly and welcoming! Been coming here for 6 years and I still make the trip from Davis for haircuts!“

“The staff is very Kind. I was able to get a same day appointment. The chairs are also very comfy - I fell asleep in one! I will be back!“

“Lee and her team are the best. I’ve moved to New York, San Jose, Sacramento and San Francisco, and each time have come back to my college nail spot (here!) because I have yet to find anywhere that can beat both the price AND the talent. Not to mention the absolute warmth and kindness of this team. This place truest does the best manicure.“

“I have regularly used Wantana for my haircuts for the past 10 years. She does an excellent haircut, does it quickly and is very responsive to my requests and suggestions. Highly recommended!Service: Hairstyling“

“Pia has been cutting my hair since I was a kid. She is like family. Not the cheapest haircut in town, just the best.“

“See Kim if you want an awesome pedicure! During your service she's super attentive and offers engaging conversation.

She offers more than just a foot bathing which, is really important to me. In particular, she takes her time removing dead skin from the toes without causing discomfort.

I followed Kim from her previous location because she's great at what she does.“

“Great place for sports pedicures [runners, martial arts, etc] and also hair cuts! Tip - Call at least 2 days in advance“

“the most reasonable prices for gel mani and pedicure in the neighborhood. they consistently do a great job from the last 2 years of going! the owner is a really hard worker and runs a small shop.. she is always good with quoting estimates wait times (i get really annoyed by this lol.. and she's always gives me real-time updates and options to book times so im never having to wait). you need to make sure you call in advance to book an apointment ideally and call before you go to see the wait time situation so you don't spend your time in the chair.

tldr - they are very transparent, go a great job, and have the best price in berkeley hands down for gel mani/pedi.“

“Sanitation & Sterilization! Yes, please! Thank you!

Cleanliness: As a licensed cosmetologist, I am aware of the correct procedure in sanitation and sterilization of implements and tools.“

“David was great, I been coming for 5 years always pleased with the service. Recommended!“

“Called 5 mins before my walk in for a gel manicure. I got there and was welcomed immediately with a friendly vibe. I ended up getting a mani-pedi together and had a nice relaxing experience!“

“The Nail Suite is the best nail salon in the Bay Area! They have a healthy, safe environment for all of their staff and customers by not using shellac or acrylic for nails. (All their nail polish is ORGANIC) They have some very talented nail techs as well and everyone is kind! The location is also great for me and it's never hard to access. Not to mention, making an appointment is simple because they use the Square app. I just click a button every time I want a new appointment. I go to them for GelX & their Aprés GelX when I want longer nails. They actually last forever and do NOT damage my nails like acrylic. Again, staff is great and the spot is extremely clean! Shout out to Amy & Emily!“

“Got a basic pedicure from Elle to see how I liked the place. She was very sweet and did a very clean pedicure, plus a nice calf/foot massage. It seemed like all the techs I saw were very responsive to their guests’ requests. I like that the equipment they use makes it easier to truly sterilize everything between guests (basins vs. sinks, etc). I will be coming back for a gel mani soon!“

“I received the most wonderful facial at Spa Nails and Hair. It was just on a lark that I peeked in to learn more about the services described by a new sign in the window for Head Spa, including Facial Treatment. The woman who came to spoke with me listened to all of my concerns and recommended a really lovely facial that would help The whole experience was delightful. I would love to go back, and I am so grateful for the experience. I wasn't just incredibly relaxing, but really helpful for my skin. I feel so much better.“

“This is a clean excellent nail salon. They are friendly and welcoming. I just love the results.“

“Lavender Nails Spa does the best job on nails in the Bay Area. Their work lasts longer than other nail spas I've been to, and they pay careful attention. There's also an air of friendliness that you don't find at other places. I can't recommend this place enough!“

“Really meticulous work on a full set of acrylics. They came out looking great and really natural!“

“First off, this place is in a corner, sometimes it's hard to spot. It's a small pace with a few ppl that can get their nails done at a time. I will recommend this place as the first time I went my dip nails were amazing. They lasted 7 weeks and she did such a great job. The second time I went. My dip nails kept getting caught in my hair and it was really irritating me and I couldn't stand it anymore I had to go to another salon to remove and redo a week later I wasn't in town for them to redo them themselves so I will give them the benefit of doubt and come back to do my nails again next time. I'd recommend LiN. She was amazing.“

“Love my mani/pedi. Fabulous work!! Highly recommended. I've been with JV for 2 yrs and it's been great. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks JV Nails!“
