Adams Ave Nail & Hair Bar

I rarely leave negative reviews. As a small business owner, I understand how damaging they can be and I don’t take that lightly. Unfortunately, what happened today requires transparency. My daughter came in for a full acrylic set with a clear reference photo of what she wanted. Instead of being guided or advised, she was repeatedly pressured into a design she explicitly said she did not want. When she asked for smaller gems, she was told “no” multiple times. The final result looks nothing like the reference photo she brought in. The execution is uneven, bulky, and novice in quality, yet she was charged $90, which is well above the San Diego average for this level of work. The pricing reflects expert-level craftsmanship; the result does not. To make matters worse, she was also charged an ad

I’ve been getting dip powder here for almost 2 years. I love this place! My nails have grown so healthy, long and strong (see pics). The techs are so nice and welcoming, the place is always clean and cozy and the drinks are amazing! The star of the show is my go to tech; Liz! She is AMAZING. She takes her time with you and truly gets your vision! She is lovely as well. I absolutely recommend this place. If Liz isn’t available i recommend June, she is wonderful too!

I loved it!!!! First time at this nail spa and let me tell you for 55$ I got a massage, got a whole treatment they used like a callus treatment and removed all the dead skin I was let’s feeling like a new born baby. Plus she took her time painting my nails didn’t fill rushed and did such a good job cutting and everything. Plus…. Vietnamese coffee…. Was to die for!!!! 5 stars I’m def. Coming back!!! And again and again. Came for my sisters birthday and we got royal treatment so good!!!

EDITED: Came in for my appointment and noticed how empty the salon was. Had to ask for my complimentary drink. Explained the simple design I wanted on my fingers (gel) and the color of the regular polish to match for my pedicure. Two ladies worked on me, which was uncomfortable- having to reach my arm across my chest the entire time (not relaxing). The Gel polish and regular polish didn’t match. And the quality of the manicure was terrible (see pictures). Paid nearly $100 for this. Disappointed in this salon. UPDATE: I went back and Ivy fixed my nails and even created winter designs (snowflakes, Christmas tree and snowman). Appreciate her taking the time to understand and correct what had previously been done. The quality is much better. Before and after pictures included.

My niece brought me here and the staff was incredibly kind and attentive. They also offered an array of beverages including Vietnamese iced coffee! Liz was absolutely fabulous and so sweet. She did a phenomenal job and I can see why my niece continues to go back to her.
