N Spa

Well this was an ordeal. I wanted something special for my birthday and upcoming vacation which is why I turned to Unilocal for a place that was capable of designs more that a flower. I called this place and they said they could take me so I rushed down there. It was way further than I expected. When I got there it was an odd layout. You can’t see the polish or salon from the entrance and staff was not up front but a very young girl did show up right away. I tried to explain to her what I wanted and showed her pictures. She said they could do it. I told her I wanted gel. She showed me the prices and said it would be 20 dollars more. I figured it was steep, but I was getting a mani and pedi so I said ok. She took me back to pick my color and go to the chairs. It was dead. There were like 15 or more chairs totally empty except for one lady and I didn’t see staff either. I was thinking this is odd for a fancy salon. The young girl that took me back seemed very confused and nervous like it was her first day so I was surprised that she was the one that started my pedicure with the design. Another young girl worked on my hands and she did a good job with the gel except for one pinky nail that was way too thick on one side. As my hands were being done there was some confusion between the girls regarding if I was supposed to get gel on my toes too. I said yes that’s what I said I wanted and then the confused girl said she gave me the wrong price and that it would be 20 more for the hands and 20 more for the feet. That’s 40 dollars for gel polish folks. I could buy 2 bottles for that price. So I said no on the toes. Confused girl starts going to the front and to the back several times. My hands are almost done before she tells me she can’t find the tool to do the design on my toes and that she can offer me a sticker if I like. I’m thinking you’re f’ing kidding me, right? Instead I politely told her no and that I came here specifically for the design not a sticker of something else. The girl doing my nails says something to her in another language and so she gets up and starts looking again. She comes back with a small design brush and says she can free hand it. I said great, thank you. All in all she did a good job copying the design but the paint was way too thick to dry so she put some quick dry drops on them. I thanked her and told her she did a good job. I was very happy I got my design and I tipped 20%. I then had to rush to my birthday dinner across the county because I wasn’t expecting my mani pedi to take TWO HOURS. Half way through dinner I noticed my left big toenail with the design was completely smashed. It never dried. I was crushed, but I was not going to go back to the salon for a fix. It was too far for me. So the next day, I fixed it myself. It took me like ten minutes and although I’m artistic I’m not a nail tech. My nail polish at home sucks, but with some of my smallest paint brushes, I completely copied the design. So to conclude this very long review, consider the following:
1. They are inexperienced
2. They are way too expensive
3. They took way too long
The gel did last a very long time and is quality, but the price was too steep. I’m sure it’s expensive, but a single use shouldn’t cost more than a bottle. You’re taking advantage of the customer when you do that and so that’s probably why your salon is empty. Sorry, but you don’t charge spa prices when you don’t have the experienced employees to back it.

I come here because it is convenient but make sure you keep it simple they aren’t too good with any design. I’ve left one to many times disappointed with the design and it really does ruin the look of entire set! Maybe I just keep getting the wrong people. my boyfriend thought I did my own nails! –_–

Slightly more expensive than the nail salon I was going to ($ 24 for a regular mani, $ 24 for a regular pedi) but I was really happy with my mani/​pedi. They have a lot of colors to choose from plus complimentary Fiji water, chocolates, and Nespresso coffee. I will definitely be returning.

Today is my 2^nd time here. Hui did my gel mani and Kit my pedi. The first time I came I had Audrey do my gel mani. Both girls who did my mani are great, very detailed and thorough. Kit did a much better job than the first time I had my pedicure done. I don’t even remember that girl’s name (I think it was Yao) because she gave me a terrible pedicure. This is a very clean and nice facility. I like that they dont try to upsell you on add on services like the other nail salons. My new go-​to nail place :)

I’ve been here twice this month and I love it! Hui does such an amazing job. It’s kinda far from home (I live in Riverside) and more pricey than other places I’ve been but I’ll be back again in a couple of weeks! Oh and tonight I was running late due to traffic (stupid 91!!!) and she still did an awesome job. Didn’t rush even though I kept her really late. Thanks Hui & N Spa!!!

N Spa has become my «go to» nail spot! I’m here every two weeks for a new set of gel nail designs! Kathy and Ashley are the two that I go to! I’m very picky, and sometimes the point of being annoying. {hahah} But they are always very patient with me! Ashley is very detailed with her nail designs and makes sure you are happy.
They are very clean and professional. They are fairly new, so it’s not too busy… But still make an appointment! Parking is easy. Prices are a little higher than other spas, but you really pay for the quality here! They have a nice selection of complimentary tea, coffee, water, soda, juice and chocolates!
Thank you to Wendy, Kathy and Ashley! You guys are the best!

After seeing my sister’s manicure, I really wanted to try this place out. It has probably been the nicest spa I’ve ever been to because I don’t get manicures often.
My sister’s nails came out great once again, but mine were a different story. Though Kathy was extremely friendly, I think she might need more training? My nail shapes were not similar to one another. One would be pointier while the other more square-​shape. The gel was too thick or too thin. When she used the mechanical tool (I don’t know the name) to shape the nails, she got too close to my skin, near the bed of nail, and it bled there. I just don’t know why they think 60 dollars was a good price for the result because I would pay 30 dollars at most…
Also, I think the staff knew my nails didn’t come out that great either. The staff, who did my sister’s nails kept looking over at her co-worker’s work, and the manager took my hand in hers and observed them more than once.
Lastly, while they asked to photograph my sister’s nails, they didn’t ask to take a photo of mine. I usually don’t write a review, but after visiting another salon yesterday, I realized the work that I received from this salon is not the norm.
That being said, I’m sure there have been great experiences (like my sister), but it seems to depend on who’s doing the work. I really wanted to like this place, but I wouldn’t come back again.

This place is the real deal. Top notch luxury nail spa. Yes, the prices are higher than a typical spa but you’re paying for QUALITY.
I only need to get my nails done every 3 – 4 weeks.
Hui does great acrylic and gel designs. She is absolutely meticulous. I’ve never had another nail technician pay such close and detailed attention to their work. She communicates frequently and makes sure that she’s doing exactly what you want. Just check out my pictures for proof!

No no nou ! This place so not good for acrylic nails for sure no no no don’t go. I came in and omg it took over an hour for full set?! And charged me $ 67 dollars plus tip?!! What the heck?!! So expensive ! For the acrylic nails they take you into this tiny and I mean tiny closet size or smaller room with no windows and they closed the door shut while in there working on your nails with those nail chemicals so you are breathing all that and of course come out of there with a big headache !!! That’s so not safe you could faint in there! Every professional knows that’s the powder and liquid chemicals are very strong and it even says on the bottle to used them with ventilation !!! Hello! So why do they take you into a tiny room with no ventilation?! I don’t know … And why do they charge way more than any other place ?? 47 for full acrylic set plus if you want gel color is another $ 22! O I’m not going back!!’

I had an appointment this morning for a gel fill over acrylics. When I pulled up to the salon I should have known something was amiss when I saw the large «GRAND OPENING» banner across the top of their name sign, considering they’ve been open for almost a year.
My appointment was at 10 and I was greeted to locked doors. The staff arrived 10 minutes later. I was ushered in and shown the nail designs. I asked about a couple of them and was told to do all of my nails in those styles was an extra $ 15. I pointed to another design and was told that to do 2 nails was an extra $ 8. SERIOUSLY? I’m shocked they didn’t charge me for looking at their nail art!
I told the receptionist I didn’t want to spend that much so she told me to pick out a color and took me to the nail color sample area. I was told their Presto gel was an extra $ 22, OPI was $ 20. I chose 2 Presto colors and asked for an ombré style like the one I was already wearing on my nails. I made sure to ask if there was a charge for 2 colors instead of just 1 and was told no. Then I was told that my service would cost $ 52! Holy crapolla! Because this place had rave reviews I hoped for the best and accepted the charge.
The receptionist took me to Kathy who did my nails. She showed Kathy my nails and the polish I had chosen and said something to her in Vietnamese. Kathy smiled and nodded and took me to a private room, which I thought was really odd.
When Kathy started removing my old color, I took the opportunity to tell her that my cuticles are very thin and weak and to please be careful with the instruments because I didn’t want to get cut. She smiled and nodded. After she took off the color she excused herself came back with some other tools and began removing my cuticles which I did not ask for. I explained to her again what I wanted and she just smiled and nodded. I let her be.
When Kathy got to the part to put on the powder she got up, shut the door, and sat back down. She opened a huge jar of some chemical and I nearly passed out. She poured some of the chemical into a small cup and kept working on my nails with the jar fully open. I asked her to replace the lid because the smell was making me ill or to open the door. She just smiled. She reopened the door when she finished with the powder.
This was the longest and most painful manicure I have ever experienced. She didn’t finish until 11:45. I came in with perfectly intact fingers and left with open wounds. My Ombré nails were nothing more than blotches over blotches over blotches. I honestly could not wait to get out of there!
When I went up to the front desk the receptionist asked me how I like my service. I told her about my experience and showed her my wounded fingers. I then asked for a discount and she said she would apply the 10% off Unilocal discount. I paid a total of $ 47 for nails that look like a kindergartner painted them along with dried blood.
I am now convinced that all of the «glowing» reviews are paid Unilocalers because there’s no way this place would get over one star!!!

I had a great experience at N Spa! I had been going to the same nail salon for many years, but I might become a regular here instead.
N Spa has great new spa chairs and offers great services for reasonable prices. Also, I’m pretty sure they offer more nail polish colors than any other nail place I have ever been to. Additionally they can create some pretty fantastic nail art, even for short nails like mine.
The other thing that is huge for me is that they sanitize their tools! It really gives you peace of mind that you are getting clean, safe service.
This place is clean, offers a peaceful environment, and produces quality work. I would definitely recommend N Spa.

Hui did a GREAT job on my fill!

New nail salon that just opened in Yorba Linda by the skating rink. If you care about your overall health I’d suggest this place over any surrounding nail salon. They carry ZOYA products which is free from formaldehyde and other nasty chemicals.
Place is clean and spacious, not smelly and their complimentary refreshments are a nice touch. Peligrino and Fiji water.
My only complaint is the color of the walls is this yellow that’s a sore on the eyes.

I love this nail salon! If only this were closer to me!!! The selection of OPI and Zoya is amazing! When I first walked in I thought the nail polish was so organized and new-​looking that they were selling them! I am so impressed with the selection and cleanliness of this salon. I came here with my sister who is very picky (to the point of annoying). After the manicurist already put one coat on her she wanted a lighter color. We were both assuming the manicurist would just put the second color on top of the first; however, the manicurist actually removed the original nail polish to redo the whole thing! She explained that it would leave streaks if she didn’t. She was very professional and patient with my annoying sister. Not to mention that this caused her to stay past closing time (7:30). I can’t wait to come back!

I will definitely recommend this place to a friend, family, and even a stranger: D
N Spa is well organized.
Everything is brand new.
Front desk n everyone was very kind and work hard to proved a pleasant experience for every customer.
Price is reasonable for an clean, comfortable environment.
I enjoy how patient they were when they were doing my nails. *** I mostly enjoy how PEACEFUL it was when they were doing my gel set. Peace = no one talks, only soft background music
I will definitely come back!

Excellent customer service and great attention to detail!
I have been coming to N Spa for the past few months, usually getting a gel manicure every 2 weeks or so with the occasional pedicure. The facility is clean, comfortable and spacious. The ladies are pleasant, easy to communicate with and work hard to ensure a positive customer experience. If you are looking for a place to be pampered and treated like a valued guest (and not a number), this is the place to try!

This place is so nice! There are couches in the front and they have drinks and snacks for their guests. My friend and I came together so they knew to sit us next to one another so we could talk. They were very detailed. It was $ 40 for a gel manicure which is a bit steep, but you get the time and service you pay for!
Loved it!

Love this place! $ 42 for a spa mani/​pedi, great deal considering all the ladies do for you & the fact that they use quality products! Been here twice & each time I have got excellent service.
However, I do recommend you call ahead and make an appointment. Sometimes they get really busy.

Had to find a new nail salon for pedicures since our usual one in Anaheim Hills is under new ownership and has lost its personal touch. So with that I turned to Unilocal and found this salon which is pretty close to us. My daughter and I came here on a weekday so it was pretty slow, however, we really enjoyed the salon. Lots of chairs, professional pedicurists, relaxing atmosphere. This will now be our regular place.
Note: It is pricey, however, we believe it is worth it.

Just finished a great experience. Friendly service, clean and affordable.
I wish this new spa a long and successful life.
