I just switched to Calinails โ€“ 6417 Lima Road, Fort Wayne, and Iโ€™m honestly blown away by the quality. Alex did my Christmas nails with a red & green V-tip and a hand-painted poinsettia, and itโ€™s the best holiday set Iโ€™ve ever had. The lines are clean, the details are perfect, and the design looks luxury-level. My old salon never came close to this. Calinails is clean, professional, friendly, and truly specializes in holiday nails, Christmas nail art, and custom designs. Iโ€™ve already gotten so many compliments around Fort Wayne. If you want beautiful, long-lasting, high-quality nails done right the first time, Calinails is the best salon in Fort Wayne. Highly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting MAY at Cali Nail, and I can't say enough good things about her! Her warm personality shows she generally cares about her clients. MAY recommended gel nails for my shorter style nails and I appreciate her honest, professional opinion. Her advice on nail types and colors are always spot on, reflecting her expertise and experience. Having been a loyal customer for over 20 years, I have always appreciated the friendly atmosphere. If you are looking for a nail tech with a personal touch, I highly recommend booking an appointment with May!

These beautiful ladies really helped me with finger picking. They do the best guitarist nails. There's going to be a learning curve for me. I could play better with my my bare fingertips due to experience. However, finger picking sounds way better with nails, and I think it will be easier than ever once I get used to it.

Came into the salon today at 1230pm to get my sister's both a full set. We moved tables 5 times, one of my sister's got cut 5 times while getting her nails done. The other sister got cut once. When showing them a design they said 55$ originally but then the guy added to the design even when we said not to. From there they said 95$ when checking out saying its 55$ for a full set and 40$ for the designs. I go here regularly for a fill with Mai and she is amazing and I love getting my nails done. However, today made me rethink coming here as being quoted 1 price and then being told its an additional $40 for stuff we declined is ridiculous.

Horrible service, my nails turned out just not good. They are crooked and thick. I called to see if they could give me some kind of refund and if they wanted me to come in for them to take them off that was fine. The owner would not help she only offered to have them redone. I was trying to explain I am going out of town and can not come back for them to be redone. The lady on the phone just was not listening $75 for bleeding, ugly nails. Horrible will never return.
