Ex Cali Nails

The nails are so beautiful. I love the work Grace has done. These nails are on its 3rd week since I've got them done and I haven't gone back because its lasted so long! I'm amazed by the quality and color. When the time comes, I definitely will do it again :)

We've been going for a few years now. I went once many years ago. Grace is so nice and fun and a very good technician. We originally tried Nancy but switched to Grace. The other ladies are ok although a few have come and go. Its a very small salon. I go for dip powder. Have my own nails. Haven't worn tips in years. Many do shellac but many use the dip powder

Amazing. Grace is such a sweet kind lady, she truly goes the extra mile to make you happy. It was my first time there and she did my nails and moms nails shellac. Very caring, professional and truly knows what she's doing! The customer service is quick and they are very friendly! She has every colour for the new easy dip powders and sooo many glitters!! Love it! ?

I'm not the one to write bad reviews. I went to this place once before and they were fine but today's visit was absolutely terrible. This salon does not sanitize their tools or equipment, there is nail file dust everywhere. They are rough and careless. I brought my little sister here today and she didn't end up liking the colour she chose. (The plastic nail showed a pink sparkly colour, it ended up looking like a sparkly top coat). I calmly asked her technician if it is possible to put a layer of pink polish on top to give it more colour, she immediately started yelling at me and telling me that the job was done, she can't do it and this is the colour that she chose. As a nail tech, it is your responsibility to ask your client whether the colour is alright, especially if you are dealing with a child who doesn't do their nails quite often. Aside from the colour, the paint job was horrible - there was polish everywhere on her skin, my sister took acetone herself and wiped it off from around her nail. After the lady applied a light pink coat on top, her nails turned out worse. It was the most careless nail job I had ever seen. I asked my own technician whether she would be able to help, this made the other nail tech furious and she began yelling at me once more. Then the two other nail tech's at the salon told me they could fix it, but it would damage her nail and they would charge me extra. These ladies have no sense of compassion or empathy. There's another nail salon in the plaza next door, with similar prices and cleaner equipment. Don't come to this place. Save yourself the headache.

I went there 2 times, the prices are a bit better than in other salons, but unfortunately, the quality is very poor. My first time was better, but the shellac manicure started peeling off in a week and 2nd time I did Shellac manicure just last week and it started peeling off 3 days later. Also there were some bubbles on my nail polish, but the girl didn't seem to care. The pedicure is ok, though it wasn't done thorough - I still came home and "finished" it. Cannot recommend, unfortunately

Very clean and nice place, friendly and professional staff ?free parking is available, recommend .

I am a regular client at Ex Cali Nails, used to get my nails and toes done biweekly for almost two years prior to Covid-19. I must say, I like how quick they do their services efficiently and professionally. It is very affordable compared to other places in the area. I've never had to wait for my appointments EVER, it's always on time. It takes less than one hour to do a full set of dip powder manicure. If you are looking for an excellent customer service, probably not the best place to get your nails done due to a language barrier. It's better for you to book an appointment in downtown where you pay close to 100 dollars for a simple dip powder manicure with an excellent customer service. All the staffs are Vietnamese, barely speak English but friendly and "somewhat" welcoming but still highly recommended!

hate writing bad reviews but nancy is absolutely terrible. she has done my nails multiple times when grace was busy and always gives me bad energy. she has messed up my nails and when i ask her to fix something she gets angry or completely dismisses me. once she finished my nails that i ended up fixing on my own because she was busy with other customers and kept leaving me hanging which made my trip to the salon 3 hours for a refill, she put a top coat that smudged all my nails ON PURPOSE. it is probanly not anything personal to me because i was always very nice, she is not fit for this patient job.
