Polished Nest - San Francisco, California

Honestly, one of the best nail salons in the city. Like in the name their work is very polished and pristine. Just a simple mani &Pedi is well done here. The girls are super nice and helpful! I usually get gel mani, and regular pedi. The pedis here last forever.

I don’t know how they do it, but my gel manicure here had the best retention I’ve ever seen! After four full weeks with no lifting or chipping (despite how incredibly rough I am on my nails), I finally removed the polish myself. The only maintenance I did was a weekly filing to make sure they didn’t get too long. You can see how great they looked as they grew out in my photos 🙂

The salon itself is quiet and welcoming. They have tons of colors to choose from, including lots of cat-eye/magnetic polishes. The staff were all very nice and I didn’t have to wait despite being a walk-in. My nail tech was also incredibly gentle, which I appreciate.

I loved my experience here, but also know that this is not a typical nail salon. I sat in a cushioned armchair (no table). The nail tech pulled up a stool, put the lamp in my lap, and worked off the arm of the chair. It was different, but really comfortable. It’s a lovely change of pace from the intensity of other salons.

I’ve been coming here over 2 years, and have been blown away by the absolutely fabulous service! Aside from the impeccable quality of their gel manicures, they make sure your appointment time is honored, and are quick with service. Beautiful, cozy nail salon in the heart of the city. I can’t recommend them enough! 💜

Cozy, comfortable, clean spa. This appointment was my first ever pedicure. Because of that, I have nothing to compare this to. The nail tech worked attentively. I have no idea what she was doing but I never felt discomfort and I was quite relaxed the entire time. Very happy with the results. If I was local, I'd be back a lot.

I had a fantastic experience getting a mani/pedi here. It was easy to book an appointment over the phone, and easy to find. The salon is very clean and has a nice ambiance. The ladies were gentle and I felt comfortable despite how ticklish/sensitive I am, and they had great attention to detail. I'm really happy with the service provided!

I had the worst experience ever since I started doing my nails. It is calm nice place to relax and unwind but they are not professional and especially the manager has a bad attitude. I had extension (hard gel) on my nails and when I went there to remove it, they polish my nails so deep that it gets to the skin, it’s been now over 3 months and I am still suffering and sometimes it is hard to do daily stuff as my nails are very thin and sensitive, evenif I have gel on still they chips and my nails are very sensitive. The worst painful experience ever.

old interior renovation. pleasant music in the French style plays here, a good choice of nail polishes. some manicurists and pedicurists are professionals, but you can also get caught by a beginner. you will pay the same amount for the work of a nocturnal or a professional, so check the experience of your master in advance. the staff is very friendly.

I've been going to this nail salon for the past 10 months. The manager is always nice and accommodating. The gel mani/pedi lasts upto a month for me! Could not recommend this place enough!
