Sunshine Nails & Spa

Tina is fantastic and has been doing my gel nails for over a year. She’s a perfectionist with nails, yet she’s quick and efficient. She’s also a kind and sweet lady. I’d highly recommend her.

Found this place on Unilocal and based on the good reviews decided to give it a go after my last unimpressive experience at a different Salon at crowfoot.
1^st visit here for a shellac mani and was very happy.
I walked in at 230pm on a Sat for a walk in with no appt and was able to get in within 20 min.
Staff were all nice, eqpt was Clean and good selection of polish.
Stacey was my nail tek and was very friendly and nice. She did an amazing job and took great care in giving me the best mani I’ve had in a really long time.
If u pay cash u receive 10% off :)
I will be coming here from now on for Manis and pedis :)

Went here for the first time to get a fill and was extremely happy with the service. I walked in without and appointment (on a Tuesday) and they had taken me in right away to a lady named sandy. She was very gentle and really took the time to make sure everything was perfect and I left 100 percent happy with my nails. One week later they still look perfect and she went in so close that it doesn’t even look like they have grown. Price is good, especially with 10 percent off when you pay in cash! Will definitely be back!

Been twice to Sunshine. The first time my nailfill was chipping within hours. I gave them a second chance and went back two months later for a nailfill again it was chipping within hours, edges were rough and by two days the polish was peeling off in chunks. Went back to my old reliable Angel Nails in the SW and had it done properly. Usually my nailfill lasts 3 – 4 weeks but having it done twice in one week is costly.
They do give a great pedicure.

Great nail salon that gives a nice foot massage for their pedicures. 10% off if you pay cash. Definitely will come back.

They’re amazing with the pedicures and fast service. Sandy was extra attentive to what I wanted and how I wanted it. She was also very careful and made sure it was to my liking. I highly recommend this establishment and you should book appointments well ahead of time as they are really busy and that is always a great sign! Paying cash is also better since they give you discounts!

Totally didn’t come to rhis place, wrote a review thinking it was another place, not sure how to delete it.

Awful. Customer service is terrible. Can’t be bothered with doing anything that doesn’t cost you over $ 50. Rude and definitely don’t know how to keep customers happy.

I’ve been getting my pedicures at Sunshine Nails for about a year now. Usually I pop by a day or two in advance in order to book an appointment, but they can sometimes do walk-​ins as well. Lately there has been a younger guy working at the front desk; he is really customer-​service oriented and makes booking, arriving and paying quite a smooth process. I’ve always been happy with my regular pedicures, but recently I started upgrading to shellac polish and have been SO impressed. I had a shellac pedicure done at the end of June, then spent the summer trekking through Central Asia. After SIX weeks of putting my feet through «heck», my pedicure still looked perfect (just a little regrowth). Although there is a slight additional cost to the shellac, Sunshine Nails does it so well, and makes it last so long, that I’m actually spending LESS on my nails now than I did before. I have no plans to change my pedicure provider in the foreseeable future!
(They also offer a 10% discount on cash purchases; pop into the bank next door before your visit.)

I am just not sure about Sunshine Nails and Spa. The first time I came here, it was for a quick polish change and I had a friendly attendant, the polish lasting close to three weeks until I removed it myself, as my nails were growing super long.
The next time, I made appointments for shellac with my friend and I. Arriving a little earlier, I had some time to browse their selection, which was decent. Neither of the nail artists we had were very friendly, my friend being scorned for picking TOO LIGHT of polish, and mine doing a total rush job. Half the time, the lamps were not even on to dry my coats of shellac and I had to keep reminding her.
I paid for my manicure in cash (10% off) and left. Shortly after leaving, I noticed that there was kind of flecks of dust in my polish (like she had filed my nails and not wiped them off). A few hours later, not one, but two of my shellac nails had totally chipped, and I hadn’t done anything extraneous except for nomming on some pizza! I called the next morning and told them I was coming in to have it fixed. When I had it fixed, another lady who fixed them was negligent to fix all the nails I had issues with, and only did the two which were noticeably chipped. Two days later, and half the set was chipped or peeling, which has never happened to me. I didn’t bother going back to get it fixed again because I was made to feel like it was such a bother the first time.
Sorry for rambling, but pretty much, I know that Sunshine has a lot of positive reviews, but I don’t recommend it. Spending $ 35 for a shellac manicure that doesn’t even last the week is ridiculous. Don’t bother.

Very reasonable pricing. Jane did a GREAT job on my manicure. Very meticulous. Will definately go back.

I’ve been to Sunshine nails many times for my manicure and pedicures… I’m not sure why I haven’t reviewed them… so here I go! Sunshine nails is located in Crowfoot way in the NW. It’s located next door to a Tim hortons. They do have parking but I found that it gets SO clustered when the Tim Horton’s drive through is busy, it can be irritating.
Anyway, there are 6 stations for manicures, 2 spots at each station so if you went with a gf (or bf) you can request to get a manicure at the same time. There are 7 massage chairs for pedicures. I usually book an appointment every 2 – 3 weeks with Jacqueline; she knows me by name, is super cute and listens to what I want! Of course she does a phenomenal job :). Jacqueline takes her time, ensuring everything is perfect and I’m happy. I always get shellac for my nails. Shellac is a cross between regular nail polish and gel. It is applied like normal nail polish and then cured using UV light. I find that it lasts much longer than regular nail polish and the dry time is instant so you don’t have to wait at the end for your nails to dry. They have a nice variety of colors for nail polish and shellac, or you could always go for a French manicure.
Sunshine nails is a nice clean place. When an appointment is done, they clean their stuff right away and take the next appointment. The massage chairs are nice and they have some magazines to keep you occupied. There are also 2 televisions, which is great because I don’t mind watching some Ellen DeGeneres or other day time television! They offer waxing services as well. Overall, Sunshine nails should be your next stop for a manicure and/​or pedicure; they certainly take pride in their work!

I make an appt and go to this salon every 3 weeks for a mani/​pedi. I always get shellac, let them know the color and how I want my nails done (square, rounded etc) They are always wonderful here and take pride in their work. They are quick, nice and all their services are reasonable in cost. Every time I have been there they never try to talk me into doing something else or selling me something else which I really like. I just want to go get my nails done and relax.
I have been to other salons where they convince you to do something else (different color, gel nails etc etc) and I find at Sunshine when I make the appointment and when I arrive you only need to ask them once what it is you require — no upselling. If I get someone who has done my nails before, its great that they know what I already want.
The only negative I find at the salon besides the lack of parking is I wish they spoke English. Its fine when the salon is busy and they are talking to each other, but when you are the only one in there and they are speaking Vietnamese, it does make me feel uncomfortable. There has been a few times I have been the only one in there, since I like to make my appts for when they open up in the morning and I wish they waited till I left. Minor thing since the service and my nails are always look great.

I always go to this nail salon on my way home from work. It is right beside the Crowfoot LRT station next to Tim Hortons. Nothing appealing to look at on the inside but is sanitary. Quick and efficient service. Only $ 20 for a shellac polish change on toes or fingers. Great colour selection. They always do a great job, never miss any spots on my nails or hit my cuticles with the shellac. They have massaging chairs to sit in while they are giving you a pedicure or polish change. I showed up 2 hours early for my appt and they were able to fit me in. I have never had gel nails/​nail enhacement or acrylic or anything done, just shellac, but I am very happy with the service. They dont speak much english but they are friendly. %10 off if you pay cash also.

I now come here exclusively for my mani/​pedi needs, partially due to the fact that it’s so close to my house, and also because I just ADORE Tina. She’s amazing. Not only does she actually listen to what I want, she remembers me every time so I don’t have to hover over my nails watching to make sure she does it right. I’ve literally NEVER had lifting with my nails. She is so sweet, friendly, and FAST. Don’t be scared though, she knows what she’s doing. I can be in and out with beautifully filled nails in 45 min! She’s also amazing at freehand designs, ask to see her samples, you’ll be blown away!
The majority of the staff here are great at what they do and friendly to boot. My sister sees Jacqueline and loves her. They have a large variety of polish & Shellac colours (more than any other nail salon I’ve been to) and a few TVs to keep you entertained while getting your nails done. I love getting pedicures here, especially with girlfriends, as they have a number of pedicure chairs to accommodate groups. The chairs are comfortable with massage features and the staff have NO issue with me requesting more hot/​cold water for my little piggies to soak in. They are extremely thorough with pedicures, unlike some places that rush through them.
The prices are on par with other nail salons in the city. However, the quality far surpasses them. It’s so nice to know that they actually care about whether or not I like my nails, and I never leave unhappy. Because of this, they do tend to book up regularly, so I definitely recommend an appointment. Also, if you pay with cash, you always get 10% off.
Unfortunately, the parking situation remains the same. It just plain SUCKS! Especially with the Tim Horton’s right there, the line for the drive thru is always massive, so pulling in/​backing out is a pain in the ass. I try to schedule my appointments in the afternoons or just park in the bank parking lot beside this strip mall. Small price to pay for beautiful nails, though =)

Very happy with everything at this nail salon. She did an amazing job on my nails and I will definitely be going back. I found that the technician really cared about how my nails looked and she took her time doing them. It was a clean and relaxed atmosphere.

Great price for the services. I got a shellac Mani and regular pedi for $ 70! The girl did a good job. Definitely will go back and get more services for the great price. — one pet peeve I had was the rude walk-​ins that wanted mutiple services for short notice, felt bad for the estheticians. Book appointments ppl! :P

I never used to go to these types of nail places as I was sceptical. But after my last trip to Urban Venus with a rude lady and cut open toe. I decided after Stephanie S. recommended it, to give it a shot. And I’m glad I did!
I had booked an appt, even though most people don’t think you have to, I just find it more polite. It was a relatively quiet Sunday and I had an awesome lady. Spoke very little English, but that was OK, I had things to read and work on. She took about 1.5 hours which I find a little excessive for a pedicure, but she did really cute flowers on my big toes, so it was OK, and as mentioned it was Sunday afternoon, so I wasn’t in a rush.
I felt bad for the ladies, as it was after 4 (they close at 5) and 4 people came in looking for appointments. Someone should not have to work late, because you didn’t plan. I know they were able to get a couple of them in, I just found that rude.
