Aria Nail Bar — Attraction in Hayward

This is Bea. It’s my first time to try Aria Nail Bar on Hesperian Blvd., Hayward. I didn’t have any appointment so I went there right when they opened at 9:30am today (6/7/2025) and they were able to accommodate me. I went there without any expectations since I didn’t have an appointment and I’m glad they were able to take me in.

First Impression: I appreciated that when I walked in, someone actually got up to talk to me at the receiving area. This alone for me is classy and professional . The place looked clean and the design is modern which i really like. Whoever designed this place has a great taste of classic modern design.

Sign in process: Tee checked me in. Since it was my first time here, I had to do online sign up. And I’m not sure if this is their usual process with everybody including the ones with appointments, but the process was quick and easy. The App they’re using is very user-friendly. When I sat down, they offered me different options of drinks right away. I like that.

Tee: I totally recommend her. She asked me what I wanted to do and recommended the best way to do it since my nails were short. There’s no pressure with her. She made recommendations but I didn’t feel pressured at all. Every step, she explained and checked if the length or color looks fine with me before moving forward. She’s meticulous and her work is neat.

David: I also totally recommend him. He has one of the “lightest” hands I’ve ever experienced while doing pedicures. My toes are somewhat sensitive but with David, the pedicure went smoothly. He also asked if I’m good with the length and color before moving forward. He’s also meticulous and his work is also neat.

OVERALL: I’m very satisfied with this place, the experience and my nails, of course. I would definitely come back here and I would definitely ask for Tee and...

I've only been here once for a pedicure on a Friday noon time sometime in July. I was able to use their 10% that were available during the month of July. I opted for a deluxe pedi for $52 which comes with exfoliating sugar scrub and mask massage, getting gel is another $15. So overall it was the priciest pedicure I've had and to be honest, not worth the extra price for a deluxe. The only difference I saw between my pedicure and the classic one is that slices of citrus fruits were added to the water, and the massage at the end. I would go for the classic pedi to save the extra $, the extra items didn't justify a $12 higher price.

My pedicure was good, the nail tech didn't hurt my cuticles and she did a good job with the gel paint. She checked in on me to make sure everything was ok and the other workers did as well. I got a glass of I believe sparkling Rose which was a nice treat to end a long week. The place seems very clean and modern - love the aesthetics and ambiance of this spot.

I like what they're trying to accomplish in Hayward, but they may need to consider adjusting the prices to align with the location and consumers that are in this area. The high prices doesn't align with the pricing in Hayward, plus you got tons of competitors out there who charge a lower price for same service/work. My go-to nail salon in Newark is much more affordable for a gel pedicure than this spot, so it is hard for me to make the switch from my old salon to this spot, despite the fact that Aria is much...

Excellent service! We had booked pedicures and added regular manicures upon arrival. Firstly the salon is stunning clean and have beautiful black velvet seats which thankfully do not massage! We were serviced by Tee, Molly and David.

My sister was flying back to London the next day so thought we would treat ourselves and treat it was!

Tee recommended the jelly pedicures what a treat these were - the jelly granules felt heavenly on our feet and this included the hot stone massage. Tee was gentle and did a great job with the regular polish and shine after.

David did an exceptional job on my sister’s nails who wanted a regular manicure and it looked so professional and shiny it looked like gel. My manicure was regular with no color as my nails had been damaged by over drilling at another salon in San Lorenzo. Tee was very kind and open with her advice saying to wait another 3 weeks before returning to do a gel manicure, I really appreciated the honesty.

Molly was a cutie she do did a lovely job with my sister’s pedicure was patience and shaped and colored beautifully!

My sister flies back but I will definitely be back as a regular customer.

Thank you so much for making our last day a special and...
