Fingertips Nail Salon — Local services in San Francisco

One of the worst manicures I’ve ever gotten! When I arrived there was another customer who was dissatisfied with her just painted nails and I didn’t understand why, but I soon would. The first lady who served me spoke no english but seemed very unhappy and grumbled when I told her how to file my nails - she then switched with the other, older woman in the shop who painted my nails. She applies coats way too thick for a manicure and shook the polish bottle up and down before application (which any nail artist should know NOT to do, because it causes air bubbles) and of course, air bubbles is what I got. She applied thick coat upon thick coat without any time for drying in between layers, to a point where the top coat brush was bleeding pink from the color she’d just applied to my nails. It’s awful technique, and when given time to dry them in front of a mini fan, I accidentally passed a finger over the fan and my polish smudged. I can’t tell you how frustrated I was because I knew it would take hours to fully dry, and this manicure would be ruined the moment I stepped out of the shop. I wanted to dry them for 30 mins, but they took the fan from me at exactly 20 mins, claiming the nails were done. I was the only customer at the shop at this point and they weren’t anywhere near closing so I don’t understand the rush. They’re also cash only it seems, and issue no receipts - the only good part about them is that they don’t seem to charge a tip outright. I would never go back and will not recommend you spend $15 on a bad manicure here, you’re almost better off doing it yourself! When my manicure dried fully the next morning, it was scratched and had nicks all over - highly...

Jenny is the best! She was referred to me through a friend who swore by her services. She was so meticulous and thorough on my pedicure, and was so sweet about me changing my color halfway through - she helped find a color I'd like better! I got a full set of acrylics as well, and she really took her time to make sure they were perfect. She assured me that if I had any problems with them at all, that I could just call her and she would fix them for free! I got them done a week ago and they're still perfect. This was my first time seeing Jenny, and I've already booked my next appointment with her.

Make sure to book ahead of time as she's not currently...

Got a simple gel nail with color. No faux nail, no designs, just color. Thought I could have went anywhere to get it done..nope, a simple style and day 1 the paint already peeled off my thumb. Toes looks like it needs to be painted over again. $75 for complete mess. Younger lady acted as if she didnt want to be bothered with me. Keep sighing and moaning under her breath. Will be going back to get them to fix...lets see if they keep their promise.. After that, will not return. Due to the fact that it was a simple style and they still managed to screw up, I would...
