Blue Skies Nail Spa - Rocklin, California

April Zoghbi

This is an updated review from one I posted before 2 years ago

I had been going to blue skies nail salon for over four years! My nail technician was Lynn. She is the co-owner of the salon. I started with her during Covid (as a referral from a friend). The last five times of going in and having my services done with Lynn was absolutely ridiculous! I would make an appointment a couple days before hand and I would come to the salon and I would be sitting in her chair for over an hour waiting to get my fill and pedicure services started because she was catering to every walk-in that would walk through the door to make sure that they were comfortable and having their services started, and then she would come back to me. I feel this is absolutely ridiculous because when you make an appointment with someone, that is the reason why you make an appointment so you can get your services completed and done by a certain time and be out and on your way to finish your day. I helped this woman become number one on Yelp with an award, I also helped with her having great reviews on Google and this is the way I ended up getting treated. Enough is enough! Her prices were very reasonable but now she up charges for EVERYTHING (I understand the cost of living is way up right now but I thought the basic nail shaping is included with your nails being done not what shape they want to do) nail shape, length and pedicure prices are way up and she rushes your pedicure so she can get the next client in her chair. Typically a pedicure takes 45 minutes to an hour, that’s what you’re paying for but with her it’s done in 30 minutes! I would have a broken nail after explaining to her my nail is broken and needs to be replaced but she would say it’s ok no worries slap more acrylic on top of it (see picture below) but then the next day it breaks then she would get an attitude because I have to come back in to have it fixed! How is that my fault? I just don’t understand how someone can go from such a nice salon owner to a greedy, nasty person in no time! I will add this last little tidbit. One concerning issue with this salon is that she uses used files, pedicure pumas stones and metal implements on clients over and over without disinfecting any of them or using brand new files and pumice stones. This is why hepatitis, infectious diseases are so big in salons today because of this issue!! I hope if you read this review you will think twice before you going here and if you do end up going to this salon for services pay attention to the few things that I mentioned in this review about the dirty implements being used over and over.

JUST A THOUGHT:
Look at your file before they put it to your nails and see if it’s been used if so, I would request a new one. When you use a file on someone you’re scraping the skin of each person which could cause a cut and then the blood goes into the file and then it can be transferred to you and that’s how infections are spread! Thanks for reading and I hope this helps you stay safe!!!

I so look forward to my monthly visit with Lyn for my manicure and her pedicure associate.
The shop is clean and organized. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. Give it a try for a great experience….

Had a really horrible experience here this morning. Started off with feeling a little uncomfortable with the man who was starting my pedicure and asked if they had a woman who would do it instead. The woman who took over cut my nails way too short and cut me multiple times when she was trimming my cuticle. Massage was pretty horrible. My big nails are cut askew and she wiggled my pinky toes down to basically nothing. The polish is all over the place and sloppy. Was in pain for most of it. Wouldn’t go back and wouldn’t recommend getting a pedicure here. Weird atmosphere and just generally unhappy to have paid $75 for a bad paint job.

This is my favorite nail salon 😍 I drive 20 minutes out of my way to come here and I have been coming here for a few years now. The pedicures are always amazing (I feel bad for forgetting the guys name who works there but he gives the best pedicures!). The environment is relaxing and clean. Everyone always compliments my nails when Lynn does them and I point them this direction!! Thank you Lynn and Blue Skies 💙

I had such an amazing gel manicure here! The prices are very reasonable and one week later and my nails still look amazing.

This crew was so friendly and accommodating to us. We arrived an hour early by mistake and they could have and should have made us wait, but they didn’t. I haven’t had anyone ever trim and shape my nails the way they did. I have odd nails and they made them look so nice and normal! Also had great conversation and the owner even made us really good coffee! Thank you guys so much!
