GoBahli Nails - Palomar Airport 961 Palomar Airport Road, Carlsbad, CA 92011

"I’ve been going to GoBahli for the last few months now. I always make a reservation online since it’s so simple, and haven’t had to wait for an open chair. Facility is clean, faculty is friendly, and tons of parking available. I always show pictures of designs I want for my nails, and the staff never gives me a hard time even if it’s more complex. I’ve always left the salon happy with my manicures and pedicures. Just recently got my first full set with Ayla, and she did an amazing job! She filed the nails perfectly, and my acrylics look amazing. I’ll definitely rebook with her again."

"This place is filthy. The technicians tools, table, chairs were covered in nail dust and grime. I was so anxious my nails are going to get infected I rubbed alcohol and topical antibiotic into cuticles afterwards. Quality is an afterthought - it was almost like a speed race, even though salon was empty. No drinks have been offered, at least not to me. Same day I saw acrylics lift, there was a fat runoff of gel top coat into cuticle and had a horizontal fracture in the middle of nail plate due to poor technique of acrylic application - they sort of paint runny acrylic on the nail, like nail polish. It’s *interesting* method, fast for sure, but dangerous for the wearer, since there’s no structure or support for a long nail. I have never had this experience before. While $58 is not too expensive for the area, the sanitation and lack of professionalism is a serious issue. Will not come back."

"This was $78 before tip. They charged me extra to ‘shape’ my nails. It’s not an add on! It’s part of a full set service ! They are so sloppy and my cuticles are butchered and stained black. My 8 year old could have done a better job. When I asked why they were charging me extra for shaping they said some nail shapes cost extra. What?!? They’re the most basic nail shape. And they didn’t mention that to me while filing. On top of the fact that they are so ugly and I now have to go elsewhere to get them fixed."

"Walked out with $87 bill for a full set of acrylics seen here. Was charged extra filing charge of $10 for a special shape they said. You can clearly see here that they are Square. He said they are "narrow square." Ridiculous. Good quality in Nails but way over priced and shady pricing policy. They need to put their pricing on display and be honest and consistent. The girls are so sweet and talented. Management and pricing is shady! Get a full quote first!"

"I have been there twice now and this shop is my new favorite! The first time I went in was just for a quick fill and nail fix, so it was cool. The staff is really nice. The second time, I had Ayla. She is very sweet, and if you bring in a nail design, she does her best to match it! I will be returning for her definitely! Shop is clean, and they always offer drinks!"
