How these salons are picked

We read the Google reviews on each salon's listing and kept the 4- and 5-star ones that mention nail art. Salons with more of those reviews are listed first. Nobody pays to be listed.

We only see a few reviews per salon, so a salon missing here may still do nail art. Prices are what reviewers say they paid, not a salon's menu, and each salon sets its own; a city gets its own range once 3 salons' reviews give a price. See all 412 nail salons in San Diego.
