Review from Diana T.
If you Look forward to pedicures mainly to smooth out your feet or massage, you need Lynn ! She's fantastic! Strong handed and friendly.
Don't get me wrong, she still can beautify your toes but most technicians CAN polish. She is unique in that she isn't afraid to scrub your feet and give you a good rub down! :)
Basic pedicure and manicure special is $25.

Me and my 6 year old daughter loved our experience here. We were treated good and the price was right! $39 for a french pedi and a child pedi with flowers. I have spent way more. I will be going back!

My husband & I were in today - our first experience at this shop for pedicures (despite the silly filtered review) and were cared for by Kim & Wendy. They did an excellent job. Both were very attentive and made sure we were comfortable. Awesome massage and a great over all experience. I think we found a new salon for pedicure weekends! We will be back! Thank you.

This review is mainly for a certain worker...
I think all the technicians there are okay, EXCEPT the youngest looking one. I've gone once before and had Trish and she was GOOD. I went again, and Trish was busy so I decided to just take anyone. My friend and I made an appointment at 5:00pm and were not seen til 6 freakin 30! 1 hour and 30 minute wait. WHAT THE EFF is the point of making a damn appointment. And if they were sooo busy which is completely understandable, thats all they had to say. (Another lady came in and the wait was hella long and she said she had to go so she'll be back tomrw and they were hella pushing her to stay and wait...wtf)
Anyway, after waiting for hella long, I was hella irritated already. We got started. They started on both me and my niece with the Deluxe $25 pedicure. And after 2 min, the lady stops doing my pedicure, leaves for another lady to come. Is this lady the boss or somethin? I mean, excuse me, someone was sitting on a high chair that day or somethin bc she was literally just walkin around bossin ppl around not doin jack. After waiting for another 10 minutes, the youngest lookin technician rushes from her client to do mine.
She basically rushed through my wholeee pedicure. My massage hurt like hell, I was sitting there trying so hard not to look like I was in pain. She didn't take her time in cleaning my feet. She literally gave me a 15 min massage and went straight to painting my nails!! I got a french pedicure and usually, people put on a clear coat first before the white tips. Well, she went straight to do the white tips. And then put one layer of clear coat and BAM, I was done. I looked at my feet and it was soo freakin ugly, I could've done this shit at home. The arches of the white tips were not even smooth, I mean, I could've done this blind. I just spent $30 on this mofo treatment. I looked at my friend and she looked like she just came back from heaven. Her pedicure looked good and she said her massage was soo relaxing.
ANYWAY, it really depends who to go to. If u want good service, which I have gotten before, don't go to the young lookin technician cuz she SUCKS and her attitude SUCKS too. And go when its not busy. You should call to make sure they ain't busy before you go in b/c they'll rush you like crazy.
This place is a hit or miss kinda deal b/c their quality isn't consistent. Good luck!! Hope that was insightful yelpers! -

I'm here right now and the service is very well. It's just almost noon so theyre not that busy. I'm glad I decided to come here. The banner caught my eye and i just needed to try it. So far the lady taking care of me is taking her time and letting me do my own thing. I like it so far. Let's see how she'll finish.
Well I have to say the finish product is really good. And I would recommend anyone to try it. I felt that Trish ( person who took care of me) did a very well job. Theyll be seeing me again with my sisters and mom. I was pleased:) -

I've never been offered red wine or white zin during a $15 pedicure...I was just hoping the young lady digging into my toe cuticles with her pointy thingamabob hadn't partaken before I arrived...
$15 pedicure and an $8 brow wax. $8! I was a loyal Elysium brow customer until this evening. A better job at half the price? Booyah. -

This place makes me furious. On my first visit, I went in for a full set and the nail technician (Sam) did a terrible job. So therefore, I came back to set-up a nail repair session in which he AGREED that we would meet the following 2 days at 10:00 a.m.
When I arrived promptly at 10:00, Sam was no where to be found. I refused to leave until someone was going to repair my nails because they tried to make me come back again and waste more time. They called Sam's phone multiple times but he did not answer. He is a very unprofessional nail technician because he doesn't show up to his appointments and is very inattentive.
I stubbornly waited 30 minutes until someone would budge because no one was trying to help me. Finally, I told the workers that Sam should be very careful because "I write business reviews." Sure enough, someone finally agreed to repair my nails after that threat. Yelp saved me here! This was the most ridiculous situation I have ever been in for a nail session. DO NOT go here they are very unprofessional. Also, there was another lady that had an appointment with the other owner, Connie and she was 25 minutes late. See what I mean? Unprofessional. Shameful. -

And now for some me time...... aaahhh.. Thank you for these over sized chairs that even accommodate even my lanky body. The price is doable and the extra leg massage was a special treat.........nice! Not that busy but a steady pace, and never felt rushed.....the owners are very nice! They introduced themselves but didn't carry on!

The lady... usually on a Saturday who does my eyebrows are extremely caring for my eyebrows. I told her I wanted them thinner, and they said no you want them arched and cleaned up. She WAS/IS SO RIGHT!! :]
She does a great job and knows how an eyebrow will fit to you. I love them every time I come out of there.. $8+tip!
They also have a punch card, so you can get a free or some money off your next service I believe. Pretty great! -

I have been coming here for the past 2 years and Connie is always accommodating. The service is usually always good and am happy with the service I receive. The prices are cheap and tiered, but that massage during a pedicure feels heavenly. Although, the bantering back and forth in a foreign language is a bit annoying but definitely not as bad as other places.

4 stars for the quick service, nice pedicure and manicure and decent prices. Even though I went in for a clear manicure and ended up with white tips and little sparkly things I hate. I really should quit watching "Yes Man."
5 stars for the perfect eyebrow wax that was only $8. Plus, the girl that did it said "you have face like Nicole Kidman" and kept complimenting me.
2 stars for them over charging me which I didn't realize until later. -

I was drawn in by the banner that said, "$15 Spa Pedicure."
The service and the polish was less than okay. I could've given myself a pedicure and saved the money. -

They did a good job, and the price was definitely right. Liked how they had their services on a menu so you could point to what you wanted (made communication a lot easier). Was seated pretty quickly even though they were busy. I had the most basic manicure (which was still good) and a french tip pedicure with massage and it came out to $40 total (tip/mani/frenchpedi). The french tips could have been cleaner, but I'm pretty picky about that.
Starts at a $10 manicure, $15 pedicure, every level up is another $5 and they throw in more services (paraffin, massage, salt scrubs, hot stone massage etc) so it's pretty customizable. Extra $5 for french tips. They do waxing and gels etc too. They charge $0.50 for paying with credit card.
Was pretty hygenic, saw them cleaning out the foot baths with bleach (unless they're keeping their bath salts in old bleach containers, then it's all a lie) -
Review from Jen J.

Im from the bay area and was visiting Elk Grove and decided to check this place out. They are reasonably priced and give you four options for spa pedicures $15, $20, $25, and $30. My sister In law chose to do the $20 pedicure which included a sea salt scrub, short hot stone massage and usual removal of cuticles. I opted for the $25 pedicure that included a 15 minute hot rock/oilmassage, two different scrubs on calves , a mask, and the usual cuticle removal followed by your legs being wrapped in hot towels. I was pleased with the experience. The rock massage was so relaxing and the scrubs left my legs feeling super smooth. I would come back here again, especially since most of the other nail salons around the area charge $30 for basic spa pedicures and this place has options to do cheaper ones. I would probably do the $20 pedicure next time since they were just as good as the $25 one. The only difference was a longer massage and two extra scrubs for legs. The workers were friendly and quiet which isn't any different from any other nail salon and the place was clean from what I could tell.

I've gone here a few times and it's been kind of hit or miss. For pedicures; they are pretty decent and reasonably priced. They usually have 3 or 4 ladies there waiting and I've always gotten a different person each time. There really isn't that much interaction between the customers and the people doing their nails, because they all talk amongst themselves. I got a full set done here twice and both times it turned it really well. They lasted for a while and they looked really pretty. I also got my eyebrows waxed here a couple of times, by two different people. The first time, was an older lady and she was rough as hell, but they turned out pretty good. The second time was a lot better though and not as rough. Overall, if you want an average pedicure/manicure with fast and ok service go here.

I have been going here regularly for about 2 years. I always get pink and white for nails and I get pedicures (which are not only reasonably priced but also include a hot stone leg massage). The service is great and my nails always look wonderful. Trish gives the best pedicures and I always see Sam or Connie for my nails. Recently I started getting my eyebrows done here as well. I was going to a salon and paying almost double but kept having them come out uneven. Moon and Connie do a great job! They fixed it for me and I have been going there ever since. Many of my friends and clients have started coming here as well- I definitely recommend!

This is the best nail salon in Elk Grove, that I have found. Great pricing, and you get more for your money here. The nail ladies spend a good amount of time massaging, which is so nice! Their chairs are comfortable and are adjustable (so if you want to recline back and relax, you can/they also have many different massage settings).
They also have a sort of "rewards card." Each time you spend money there, they record it on your card, then after 10 visits they give you 10% credit toward your next visit. (For example, if you spent $25 each time, for 10 visits...that's $250, so you would get $25 toward your next visit-free pedi!)
Great place! Worth your time and money! -

Love this nail shop! The owners Connie and Sam are very nice. I think I have had a pedicure with every technician they have on staff and dont have any complaints. Prices are right and so is the service. My mom comes all the way down from the Grass Valley area to get her pedicures with Julie!!!
