Unique Hair & Nails Studio

Over priced and rude. I came in to do a simple hair straightening. My normal place was closed for the day so I walked over to Unique hair and nails and they charged me almost double what my normal place charges me. On top of that they were rude and kept speaking in their native tongue, they didn’t try to be discrete about it and made it very obvious they where talking about the clients. Not to mention the lady who did my hair «straightened my hair» for 30 minutes and didn’t even have the straightener on! And when I told her she was pulling my hair she didn’t listen and kept on going.
Do me a favor if you are going to do your hair walk over 5 stores to the right and go to imagine hair and skin, you will pay less then they will actually help and not talk badly about you.

Nice, clean place and they welcomed me after I explained how unhappy I have been at my last place. Helen did a great job on my nails and T did a great job on my pedicure. They spend a lot of time on you and are proud of their work and should be! Not going back to my last place for sure. They could use more gel colors.

If you are anything like me you want a good haircut, at a moderate price (10 $) and in a timely manner. I can only speak for David but he gets it done right every week. He is popular between Friday-​Saturday so calling ahead is your best option. Cheers!

I just moved to the area and was looking for a nail salon. I came in for acrylic with shellac. The nail polish looks half way done and the color I chose wasn’t even the correct one. I pointed it out and it was as if I were lying. On top of that she left all kinds of residue on edges. I’m not coming back sorry!

I got my nails done here a few weeks ago. My friend and Iiterally came like 5 minutes before they closed and they still helped us. It took a while for us both to finish getting our nails done because there were only 3 people working. And only one person actually doing the nails. A sweet young lady did my manicure and then I was sent to another lady to paint my nails. Although I wasn’t too pleased with the color selection they had for gel nails, the lady did a pretty good job. Although the the design that I asked for wasn’t really what I got. Also there was some excess nail polish on the side of my nails. My nails lasted for more than 2 weeks and the only reason I took them off was because my nails were growing out. Gel nails are $ 25 and $ 5 extra for a design on 2 nails.

They did a blotchy job on my nails. The paint job looks spotty and unfinished and she had the gall to say they look beautiful. I like their other services but definitely not the nail services.

45 $ for shellac and regular pedicure. Seemed like an average price. Did not seem like they had new nail polish. The lady who did my fingernails missed some of the edges and so it is not painted. The nail polish seems dull. The second day one of my shellac nails chipped. There were no prices listed for the nail services. I will not be returning to this salon.

I came here for the first time with my sister today and Lets just say we were extremely disappointed. The quality their work was horrible. Maybe we caught them on an off day but yea, not cool. Everyone is very sweet but sorry I came here to get a nice mani and pedi. When I get a pedi I expect to get my nails cut and that includes and nasty ingrown nails I may have as well. I also expect some sort of massage not just a pat pat. I also don’t expect to be given a 16 year old looking girl to do my toes either. I want someone who knows what they are doing. When I get my nails done and tell them what I want I expect to get what I asked for instead I get what will be faster for them. That’s not ok. I’m a non confrontation and feel bad asking to re-​do a job completely so I paid for what received and just left unhappy with what I got

I would give this «salon» negative stars if I could!!! About a year ago I went into this salon and showed the so called «stylist» Mai
A certain hair color I had wanted at the time. She seemed suuuuuper confident about it and and reassured me that she could definitely do the hair color I wanted. My hair length was a little above my waist. Next thing I know I’m in the chair and she’s slapping bleach on my hair little did I know I was about to sit under a dryer for 45−1hour with this chemical on my hair. Long story short my hair looked black on top and platinum blonde on the bottom when she got done. NOT the look I was going for at ALL. As she attempted to blow dry my hair. CHUNKS of my hair are falling/​melting off. I’m in shock at this point. And at this point my hair length is at my shoulders! About 7−10inches of my hair was burnt off! She charged me $ 65 and later I had to call the salon back and threaten to call state board and better business bureau to get my money back.
If the stylist wasn’t comfortable with doing the certain color I had wanted then she should of simply said no. But she was money hungry and decided to take the risk and in the end I paid for it. A year later my hair is still to my shoulders and it has taken several hair cuts and deep conditions to try to restore the overall health of my hair.
This was my first and very last time to this salon. I do NOT recommend this salon at all!

I have been going to Helen for my eyebrows for the past 6 months now and only recently started to get my nails done by her. I have NOTHING to complain about. She is so sweet and friendly and takes care of all the women in my family when we come to her and her girls. They do our hair cuts, colors, straightening, and all our waxing. Prices are unbeatable! Don’t look any further.

Very friendly people. Called to see if they do the gel nails and the lady on the phone was very friendly. Went over there and I was impressed. Helen did a great job!!! I recommend going here for your nails

I came this salon for the first time yesterday after reading the great Unilocal reviews. Unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations.
I came here to get a mani/​pedi. When I walked in, they were really nice and let me take my time choosing a color. When one of the employees saw that I wasn’t really happy with any of the colors in the front, he pointed me to the back where they had even more to choose from. I settled on a dark OPI polish and they got started right away, which I really appreciated.
My mani/​pedi came out nice but I did get nicked in 3 different places when they were doing my nails and it started burning a bit. Also, the UV dryer for nails was really dirty and hadn’t been cleaned for awhile. When I put my hands into the dryer, I felt residues and chips of polish from others, which caused me to move my hand and smudge my nail.
I also took off a star because I specially came here for Amex’s small business Saturday. Amex listed this salon on their website as a small business AND there is a sticker on the window saying they take amex, however when I went to pay with my amex card, all of a sudden they wouldn’t accept it. I ended up paying in full for something I was expecting to get a rebate on. Luckily, they have a good price of $ 25 for a mani/​pedi, so I paid without putting up a fuss.
I’d come here if you are looking for a quick mani/​pedi at a good price. For me, I’ll continue searching for a great nail salon.

Helen and her sister are the best. I’ve been coming here for over 10 years when Jennifer was the owner… since Helen took over I will never go anywhere else… her prices are amazing and she pays close attention to details. shes extremely friendly and loves everyone… my family and friends always come to Helen’s…we don’t call the place unique hair and nails we call it Helen’s because she owns her business… she even studies abroad for different techniques and can do anything that’s asked… the hair Salon woman are amazing as well… thanks Helen for being so great! A+ Check out all my nail and toe pics… soon i’ll be posting my hair pics also…

They do a good job waxing and the prices are very reasonable $ 10 for brows n lip!
Tried their Pedicure recently
and the woman did an excellent job, yes their chairs are kinda icky
but i don’t go for the vibrating chairs, they bring about too much boobie bouncing for me.
i walked in with dry ugly feet & nails
and walked out feeling much better about my dry ugly feet & nails
$ 15 + tip, not bad at all

I’ve lived in Blossom Valley for years, and never really had a favorite pedicure place. That being said, I find myself coming here more often than the other nail salons in this part of town. I find that they do a good job, and they don’t try to push me into a pricey pedi package with unnecessary extras. The pedicure chairs aren’t that new, and they don’t use those tub liners like the pricier places, but if you’re looking for a simple, cheap pedicure, and aren’t too picky, this is the spot for you…

Why you should come to Unique Hair & Nails Studio:
1) they are masters in providing excellent customer service
2) their attention to detail is unparalleled
3) it is money well spent
4) Compact and efficient, I love this place and the ladies who run it. I spent 60 – 90 minutes and $ 30 on a pedicure and it was better than the ones I have gotten at a lot of fancy-​pants places. The place is clean, organized and most of all, they take good care of you. Sorry but I’m not telling you my favorite nail technician for fear she’ll never be available again. I can say it appears that everybody does an amazingly thorough job, hence the great reviews.
Enjoy!

Went here yesterday on memorial day. We walked in at 6:50 pm. The BF and I walked in and asked if they had time for 2 pedicures. The woman said yes. I went to pick out my color and no one said anything to us. It actually seemed like there was one lady who was angry that we were there.
The man sat us down. He did my pedicure and the lady who said there was time did my BF. They were actually really nice. After about 10 minutes everyone that worked there had left. I asked what time they closed and she said at 7.
I apologized and told her that she should have told us no, that they were closing. She said she didn’t mind, that she needed the money.
They were really nice people. I do believe they were married to each other. Really nice people and didn’t seem to mind that we were there. I kept apologizing though. She said that they were going to leave early for the holiday, but that there would be nothing to do.
Even though they were supposed to be closed, they took the time to stay and do 2 pedicures. They still took their time and didn’t rush to get us out of there.
We gave them a pretty good tip for them staying.
Wish I knew their names, but it was greatly appreciated!!!

My favorite place to have my nails done. You know some people have their regular bars or places to eat. I have my regular nail/​pedicure & waxing place.
I’m know by a nickname here. I’m always greeted in a friendly & happy manner.
Price is right too. I’ve tried many places before finding this salon.
They’ve never messed up my eyebrows or nails.
I’ve had my hair done (colored) but wasn’t happy. Owner said I could come back in a week to have it fixed at no cost. *Thats what I call service, if something is wrong you get it emended.

The nice thing about having an older lady do your brows is that you don’t have to worry about chola arches.
This place is dingy as hell, and for $ 6 I expected them to just quickly wax my brows and get me outta there stat, but they actually spent a good amount of time slaving over my brows til they were absolutely perfect!
Tip well!

I desperately needed my hair redyed and had put it off as long as I could. I don’t like new people touching my hair. I asked Han if she could do my purple & black dye and OMFSM did she do a fantastic job! I couldn’t be happier. I’ve upload some pictures. From now on, I will always have Han do my hair. Thanks Han!
Sadly, Ann is no longer there to do my nails, which is highly disappointing as she was the best.
