"Very nice lady but speaks no english! But she still was able to do what i wanted. And she made them thick as hell. She saw me changing in her bathroom and she took me into the back where they lived and told me i could shower. Ididnt but she told me i could everyday if needed. Nails and a shower. Very sweet but i declined. Very good people"

"My sister an I went to get our feet done and let me tell you it was the worst experience ever....started off with cold water we had to ask them to make it warm. Then my water had stuff floating in it had to ask them to drain it an start over. The lady doing my feet never turned the jets on filled the gel off my feet cut me 3 different times then as she was cleaning my cuticles she dug so deep I had to pull my foot away while watching it bleed. Never again would I go to this place please be careful even after she seen I was bleeding she put the tool back in her box how nasty an unsanitary"

"For anyone who gets their brows waxed in Clearlake, DO NOT GO TO FINEST NAILS (14085 Lakeshore Dr, Clearlake, CA, 95422). I stopped by yesterday afternoon and asked the only woman in there if I could get my brows done. She asks me to hurry over to her station, so I do. I lay down on the table and hear her plugging something in, which I assume was the wax warmer. I am not sure if there is a limit to how many times you can reapply hot wax on the same area within a certain time frame, but this lady went all in on my right eyebrow. She applied the wax and used the strip on the bottom portion of my right brow at least 4 times in a row, that I could count of. Yes, it was uncomfortable, but I assumed it was just sore from her pulling the wax strips off repeatedly. When she was done, I checked my brows and the right one was a bit red and tender, but that’s not abnormal for me. So I head home, assuming the irritation would go away shortly. Fast forward several hours later, and the redness and tenderness was actually the result of her burning the area between my eyebrow and eyelid. First pic was 5 minutes after service was rendered, and as you can see, it just continued to get progressively worse through out the night. I will be stopping by once they open this morning to show them and speak with them. I went in the following day and no one could help me due to a language barrier. The woman in the shop called someone to translate and I was told that my skin was just sensitive, to which I tried to explain the eyebrow/upper eyelid area was actually burned, not just irritated. I was then asked what it was that I wanted, if I wanted her to re-do my eyebrows, which would be impossible without causing more damage. I advised them it was not my responsibility to right their wrong, considering I was not the business owner. The woman who I tried to explain the situation to in person almost touched the open wounds after she had literally just been touching another customer’s foot when I walked in. They refused to take any accountability, only denying that my skin was burned, and that it would be fine within a couple of days."

"Will never return. It started off normal. I asked for a gel pedicure. She said $50. I was expecting $40-$45 so I was not too surprised. I picked white for my toes. 1st thing, when cleaning my cuticles, she cut my skin. I said ouch and she said sorry. When it came to the color it looked horrible. I asked if she could redo my toe since it was bumpy. She asked for her coworker to translate, he asked what was wrong I said sorry can you have her redo my toe it is bumpy. He translated seemed annoyed and took all the polish off my toes. She went back to filing and cutting around my toes. I told her she didn’t have to do everything over just the toe. She didn’t understand and kept cutting. She made me bleed. I said ‘OUCH!!’ she didn’t look up and did a worse job than before. I asked the guy if I can pick a different color since the white just seemed like old polish he said yes and asked if I wanted him to do it. I said yes please. She kept doing my nails and went back to cutting my toe. I said please stop. She didn’t. When she painted my toes, my big toe stung so bad. It was bleeding bad. I had to yell to please stop and started to cry. The guy asked what is wrong I said I just want to leave please and showed my toe. I said I was diabetic and don’t want to catch an infection because of my cute and just wanted to leave. The guy was sorry and said I didn’t have to pay. I left crying."

"I was nervous going here after reading the other reviews but my normal nail tech was fully booked and I had a painful nail needing fixing and a whole new set and fortunately for my friend and I, our experience was nothing like these others I've heard. They were able to get us both in right away and they have soooo many glitter tip options available, it's so hard to choose from. The people were nice and cleaned and sanitized before and after each person. Only reason I didn't give them a 5 star this time was because the woman kept going from me to another person and left me waiting awhile and once she almost forgot to change brushes, (going from the other woman's toes to my nails)I noticed and mentioned it and she quickly switched to a new one and apologized only happened once it could've been an honest mistake, they were busy but still. My advice just Pay close attention if u go there."
