Delicate Nails & Spa

The absolute worst service ever!!!
The polish chipped the same day! Honestly the worst pedicure i’ve had. I dint even leave Unilocal reviews i was so mad i left this one!

They do a very VERY good job on gel acrylics!
I was so impressed and happy.
The shop is in DT walnut creek. It’s a small-​ish shop, but they have a good amount of workers.
I think I went on a Saturday. I called and asked if they had any open spots and they did! I came in and was sat down at a station. Kim, I believe?, started to work on me about 5 – 10 minutes later. It was busy, and I called last minute so I didn’t mind.
She did a great job! My only problem was there was this older, and very entitled, lady that came in and was so damn fussy that Kim had to leave me to take care of this B. I was biting on my tongue trying not to rip this old B a new one.
Another tech had to finish me up, and she did a great polish job. It was only $ 30 for a fill and a new gel color! I was shocked it was that price being they’re located in DT walnut creek.
Parking is metered, so make sure you put enough money in, because they WILL find you, and they WILL ticket you.
I’ll definitely be back with those great prices and great paint job. I’ll be sure to make an appointment with Kim, if that’s her name. Hope the second time lives up to the first.

My mom and I popped in with no reservation, everyone was so friendly and happy to help us. All the ladies were so sweet and accommodating. I asked for my nails to look as natural as possible and she went out of her way to make sure I was completely satisfied before she moved on! Highly recommend this place, you will be happy you came!!!

I used to love this place. The staff is friendly, and you can usually get right in without an appointment. Twice now, I have gotten a severe infection, which resulting in my needing to go to the Doctors and get on antibiotics. The last time I went there, 2 of my acrylic nails came off within a week, and when I went in to get them repaired I was informed that no one working could do acrylic (although there were 5 ladies working) and I needed to pay to get a full gel set. Definitely not going back after that.

I had three people in for gel mani/​pedis for my wedding, and we loved it! The girls were so nice and all three of us were done in an hour. My mom absolutely loved the chair massager and the quality of the mani/​pedis were great. Couldn’t have asked for more!

The story is that I smudged my nails, so I needed a place that could repaint my nails. I walked in around 6:40pm asking for a color change. The guy that worked on my hand was super sweet. And his painting job was superb. He asked the owner in Vietnamese how much she was going to charge me. She replied «$ 15» in Vietnamese. He goes, «What? $ 15?!» And she told him, «You think that’s too much?» He responded, «I thought nail color change is $ 8.» Then she goes «Well you used gel.» She then bumped up the price to «$ 18.» This whole time, she doesn’t know that I could understand vietnamese. People like her is so greedy and it definitely stereotype vietnamese people. I liked the guy’s work and I wasn’t going to skimp out on his tip. So I gave him a total of $ 23. But seriously $ 18 dollars for nail color change!!! My original color on wasn’t even gel!!! For $ 18 dollars, I could of gotten a refill PLUS gel elsewhere. This place lost my business. Bye Felicia!

My first time here, I loved my pedicure! Daisy did a great job. I especially loved that she painted my toes so neatly, as other places will paint them messy and clean with a bunch of Acetone. I even bought my sister a gift card for a pedicure since her birthday is in two days. How convenient!
Note; I’ve been to pretty much all of walnut creek nail spas for pedicure, this one did the best job :)

This place has gone downhill recently. I used to come and be extremely happy with what they gave me, now I find each time there is a major flaw with the service.
My last service of getting acrylics resulted in my cuticles peeling and the skin around my nail to be glued to the nail itself. I had an event to go the next day and had to get everything completely redone at a different salon the morning of the event, nearly making me late.
I hope this place goes back to its old standards.
Side Note: the pedicure was ok, but the nails were not cut evenly.

This salon has been my go to place for many years. Nowadays their «up-​sale» techniques include charging $ 5 extra for Taking off callouses with pumice, the same thing included in all other pedicures at no extra cost. If you want your polish to dry within 40 minutes you’re told to get gel polish and you find out the up sale costs is $ 17 more. The manager will not indicate the jump in price until you want to pay. Call me old fashioned, but I believe the customer needs to know and make a choice for a price increase of more than 10%. I’m offended and will not return.

Love this place! They always deliver — gel pedi & full set of pink and whites (have had both all gel and acrylic with gel over, excellent job no matter what). Def recommend.

I had a friend in town and we didn’t make any appointments because our schedule kept changing. You would think finding a nail salon would be easy around downtown WC on a weekend but… Nail Today was closed (on a Sunday) and Glamorous Nails told us not to come in because she didn’t have time. We called Delicate Nails and they told us to come in right away!
We walked in and they saw us immediately. I got gel and a pedicure and both were so relaxing! The ladies were real nice and I would come back just for that experience.

My mani-​pedi wasn’t terrible but the experience could be better. When I arrived they had one woman start working on my toes. She got 95% of them done and then got up and left and another woman took over. For my nails, I had a similar experience. One woman cut the nails on one hand, filed two nails and then walked away. When the second woman picked up where she left off there was a lot of confusion about how short I wanted them, which nails had been filed. I don’t know where the first one even went — I didn’t see her service another customer. When I was done with my nails they had my dry them for five minutes before adding a top coat. Did they forget and then remember? Never had that experience at a nail salon.
Keeping the 3 stars because the mani-​pedi looked nice for a week and for a regular mani-​pedi (no gel) it was $ 30 total so a good deal.
Recommend making an appointment and bring change for the meters. There isn’t a lot of free parking in the area.

Kim was awesome! My nails are beautiful and I will come back for all my vacation trips to my sisters. I am from Flagstaff and it was fun to go somewhere different

i love my nails, they did very good. i asked for coffin shape and thats what i got. i got gel as well and i am very impressed. thank you!!!

I asked for fake nails… And the lady who did them just cleaned them and painted them. When I asked her why she couldn’t do what I had asked for she said my nails were too short to hold fake nails… Which is bull shit because I’ve had fake nails before!!! She painted them, I hate them…
I could have painted my own nails at home and it wouldn’t have cost me $ 35.
Never coming back. EVER.

Absolutely amazing! I’ve been searching for a permanent pace to get my nails done and I have found it. The venue is a little on the small side, but it’s totally worth it. A gel manicure is $ 30 (normal places charge $ 25), but it’s totally worth it. I’m definitely coming back for another gel manicure!

Love my nails! They did such an amazing job! Everyone there is so sweet and they take their time you don’t feel rushed and their detailed at what they do which is major for me and also they give really good massages! I highly recommend this place to everyone!

Completely overpriced.
I was charged $ 70 for shellac nails and toes. No pedicure, no manicure. Just the shellac color.
Unbelievable

I recently moved to Walnut Creek, and when looking for a new, local nail salon Delicate Nails was recommended to me.
Honestly I couldn’t be more happier with how my gel mani/​pedi turned out. LOVE IT! Definitely One of the best manicure/​pedicures I’ve ever had! The shape and my cuticles are literally perfect, AND they have color changing «mood» gel polish!
Thank you Kim, you are fabulous and I will definitely return soon!

Such a clean and simple place. Its in a mini shopping center with other shops so it’s a little tricky to find parking. The ladies are nice and do a great job. I got a shellac mani gift certificate and they were able to take me within an hour of my call.
Lena did my shellac mani, and it looks perfect! I am so glad I found such a price savvy, clean gem in Walnut Creek! I would def recommend this spa.
