Best Nail Salons In Oakland

“Did a same day walk in. I went in for a pedicure and full set, loved the fact that they made way to get me seated right away for my pedicure, the gentleman who helped me was older guy with glasses, he made sure I was accommodated with a drink on their menu which I got water instead but they had other options which I liked. It was a bit humid in there, but I didn’t mind much of it, I know it’s summer and the heat is a lot this year. Gave them a vision of how I wanted my nails done and they all worked as a team, they don’t do acrylic which I was surprised to hear, but they have a different method which I think is way better and chemically safer opposed to the strong acrylic you smell going into other nail shops, where you smell it so strong to the point you almost pass out. It was easy, safe, and smoother they should recommend other shops to use this safw method. I had my 2 year old too and they were very good with her and patient which is a plus to me! Love the way my nails turned out will be back!“

“Soon as you come into the Spa, you are asked to wash your hands. The Spa was very well cleaned. Complimentary beverages are given and all of the staff were friendly, treating each guest like royalty! My leg and feet massage was EVERYTHING! It was not rushed, gentle yet therapeutic in nature. The music was soothing relaxing the mind. I really love this place, and I’m grateful I found it! It’s the best place I’ve gone to in Oakland! I’ll be returning regularly! Thanks Natural Nails!

Cleanliness: After each client leaves, the technicians made sure to clean everything used for each client. The restroom and all areas of the building was very well kept!“

“I came to Rasheeda for a full Brazilian sugaring treatment and immediately felt so comfortable and at ease. She is so skilled at what she does it was painless, it may have been the product she create herself Caribbean Candy or the technique she has developed but I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends.“

“Been going here since they opened wonderful staff, great work, and very clean salon.“

“The staff are quite friendly and accommodating. The salon is clean and tidy. My pedicure looks great even a week later!!“

“Nhi was great! She took really good care of my nails and the shape came out perfect! Highly recommend!“

“I’m a Black girl and I’m very particular about my weave. If you want balayage go here and F with Jade. Period. Sis is doing blonde balayage like no one else in The Bay area. Everyone in the salon is super sweet friendly and you’re in and out. No more hours on hours in the salon unless of course you’re getting blonde. Anyway girlies trust me when I tell you that Jade is the truth. Sis colored my hair like her car was in danger of being repossessed. Very reasonable prices as well. Thank me later.“

“Been going to Figgy since 2017 (old salon), and I’m obsessed with them. As a Leo who is obsessive about my hair I can assure you that you are in good hands.“

“The location is convenient, service is excellent and the shop itself is very clean. I've been to many nail shops in North Oakland but I seem to always gravitate to America Nails because of their meticulous work. They have earned my loyalty!“

“This place is amazing! This is a regular manicure day 5 and it’s perfect. The people who work here are so kind and detail-oriented about their work. The prices are also unbeatable. Highly recommend.“

“They are seriously the nicest people I've ever encountered in a nail shop. Usually pretty good easy to get an appointment, I'm always happy with my nails, and the people are so sweet. I don't get my nails done anywhere else anymore.“

“Amazing service, great price, and valuable nail-care knowledge. Tiffanie was incredible! She removed my acrylics with so much patience and care, with a constant eye to maintaining the health of my nails. For the manicure I got next, she suggested the perfect color based on our conversation. It was an absolute pleasure to chat with Tiffanie. I will definitely be back!“

“I have been going to Saunders & James for around 6 months, and cannot recommend them enough. They are kind, professional, and the salon is so peaceful. I have gotten standard manicures and pedicures, gel manicures and pedicures, and builder gel manicures, and have been satisfied with each of these services (highly recommend builder gel). I see Indra on a regular basis, she is wonderful.

In addition, their scheduling policy is respectful to both clients and the staff. Thank you to Michelle and staff for their service.“

“I love this salon and have only had really exceptional experiences. I've tried multiple styles, come in at different times, and worked with nearly all the technicians. All have been kind and talented, and I've left very satisfied. Their prices are fair, the salon itself is really cute and relaxed, and I always appreciate the drinks from the mini fridge. Special shout out to Susan who gave me this beautiful manicure. She took her time, and we had such a lovely conversation.“

“I had an incredible experience at the nail salon! The nail technician did a stunning job with a beautiful flower design on my nails that exceeded my expectations. The pedicure was extremely relaxing, and my feet have never felt better. Additionally, the eyebrow wax was quick and painless, leaving my brows perfectly shaped.“

“My friend and I were walk-ins today. What a delightful experience. We both got mani pedis. The location is clean and the staff is super friendly. Gail took care of me today. She was awesome. I live almost 30 miles away but I will go back. Give them a try. You won't regret it.“

“The lady's here are so caring and had top notch quality service. I'm so grateful to have been recommended to come here.“

“Highly recommend this salon! They're having a 15% off promo for their grand opening on top of already amazing prices for their services. The owner was meticulous in his work and did a wonderful job on my pedicure. He was super patient and made sure I was satisfied with every part of the service from my nail shape to polish color. Definitely check out this place if you're in the area!“

“First time here and a walk-in and I was warmly welcomed. I asked for a deluxe regular polish pedicure and powder gel polish set. Kim was kind and paid extra attention during the sugar scrub and callous removing. Minh listened patiently to my thoughts about getting a nail set (haven't had one in years) and answered my questions. The place is clean, relaxing and they offer water. I enjoyed my relaxing time there and I really like how my nails and toes turned out.“

“Awesome customer service fast efficient and friendly…. First time customer from Atlanta very please highly recommend…. Thank you “MiMi”… for fixing me up plus making me laugh!!!! ?Services: Nail art“

“Lunar New Year Cat Eye stamped nails by O! The best Japanese gel nails done by the best nail professional. Meant to post this earlier but I have been caught up in my first home purchase (sorry O!). I smile every time I look at my nails and it's the ONE self care item that I can do that stays solid until my next appointment with O. She is booked up MONTHS in advance so be AWARE of this and patient. You want the BEST nail tech, you have to book her in advance and she IS worth the wait. Be sure to tip her for what she is worth also because she really puts her heart and soul into her nail artistry and craft. Thank you O! Her studio is very clean and tucked away inside a series of shops in Montclair. Bathroom is always clean in the back also.“

“Amber is amazing! She is knowledgeable and passionate about skin. She has so many services to offer, from nail services to pedicures, waxes, and facials. I had the privilege of getting a facial recently and I just needed to rave about my results!! I left my facial, feeling brand new! My results were incredible... My skin feels sooo amazing and looks younger, brighter, and firmer after just one hour. I went to an event the next day and got a ton of compliments on how my skin was radiating and glowing and that I looked rejuvenated. Amber was so helpful with treating my skin. She cares about her clients and provides caring and professional services. Best place ever!!!!“

“Pink does the best nails in Oakland. Hands down! She always tries to accommodate my schedule to get me in when needed. She has an incredible skill set and all the coolest colors and supplies- glow in the dark, matte, jewels and super unique designs. Pink is my go to girl and I am so lucky I found her!“

“Me and my family has been coming here for years. Everyone who works here is very nice and they are fast and do a great job! Highly recommend!“

“The barber is very friendly, has good skills, and the price is fair. I will only come here to get my hair cut in the future.“
