I tried the aromatherapy massage manicure with a paraffin wax hand treatment, and it gave me real, noticeable relief from rheumatoid arthritis stiffness in my hands. The warm paraffin dips softened my joints and eased that tight, achy feeling, and Tammy slow, careful work on each finger and palm improved my grip…

Seriously the best nail tech I've found. I normally do dip powder because I find it lasts longer for me, but I've done both dips and gels here as well as a new technique using real dried flowers, and my nails come out stunning everytime!everything! And very reasonably priced too!

Thank-you so much for your review and support! It truly means a lot to us. Can’t wait to see you soon.
Nicole RamirezLocal Guide · 71 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Nicole has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Absolutely love getting my nails done at Nails By Tina Le! She shaped each nail perfectly and made sure they were even and symmetrical. The cuticle work was super clean, and the polish application was smooth with no streaks or bubbles. She checked in throughout the appointment to make sure I liked the length and color before finishing.

I tried the aromatherapy massage manicure with a paraffin wax hand treatment, and it gave me real, noticeable relief from rheumatoid arthritis stiffness in my hands. The warm paraffin dips softened my joints and eased that tight, achy feeling, and Tammy slow, careful work on each finger and palm improved my grip without ever pushing into pain. The light scent was calming, the space was clean with fresh wax liners, and the whole session felt both soothing and purposeful. The benefits lasted into the next day, and this combo is now my go-to when my hands flare.

I came here just before my wedding for a mani-pedi morning with my sister.
The pedicures chairs are very comfortable and it was a lovely experience.
Yumi did my manicure and it has been the longest last manicure I’ve ever had. They’re still going strong after a month! This is very unusual for me because my nails are not the strongest. She did a wonderful repair job on a couple of split nails and added a tip to one that is unnoticeable! Obviously there is now a gap where my nails have grown, so I’m heading back in a few days to get them updated.

My nails have always looked perfect after coming here. Tina and Yumi are the sweetest, and they do incredible work. I have been to so many different nail salons in Sacramento and Nails By Tina Le is by far my favorite. They are very accommodating and work hard to make room even if you don’t have an appointment.
