Where is the studio located?

Candy Nails Beauty Salon is located at 7710 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, CA 92111, in Kearny Mesa. Complimentary on-site parking and step-free entry.

By appointment, Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 5 PM. Closed Sunday.

How far in advance should I book?

Olya Buiadzhy attends to one guest at a time, so weekday openings typically appear one to two weeks ahead. Weekend appointments are generally reserved two to three weeks in advance. Same-week openings arise on occasion — send a request and we will offer the nearest available time.

What services do you offer?

The Signature Russian Dry Manicure ($65), the Gentleman's Dry Manicure ($65), the Couture Gel Overlay & Sculpting with a single-tone finish ($99), Bespoke Gel Tip Extensions with a single-tone finish ($155), the Russian Dry Pedicure ($65), and the Ultimate Pedicure Ritual with a single-tone gel finish ($99). The Beauty Salon Combination pairs the couture gel overlay with the gel pedicure ($190). Couture finishes and enhancements — cat eye, chrome, French, appliqué, hand-painted detail, single-nail repair, single-nail extension, and removal of prior application — may be added to any service.

I have a custom nail design — how do I get a price?

Pricing for bespoke designs varies with the work involved. Share a photograph of the design you have in mind by Instagram message and we will return a quote within the hour, often sooner. Without Instagram, telephone or text us at (925) 567-4406.

What time slots are available?

Standard appointments begin at 8:30, 10:30, 12:30, 14:30, and 16:30, Monday through Saturday. Share the window that suits you in the request form and we will confirm the exact time.

Is the studio accessible?
