About

Universe Nails Spa is a nail and beauty salon on W 25th Avenue in San Mateo, open seven days a week with weekday hours starting at 10 am and weekend hours that close at 6 pm. The menu centers on manicures, pedicures, gel, acrylic and dip powder work, polish changes, and waxing.

The hand and foot services are built around the salon's signature Universe treatments. The Universe manicure includes a bowl soak, paraffin and an aromatherapy massage. The Universe pedicure adds a mask and heel treatment, sea salt therapy and a sugar scrub, finished with an aromatherapy massage. Organic and Aroma pedicures add a hot stone massage, Cleopatra services are infused with 24K gold, and the Collagen pedicure brings a lemon and rose foot soak, a vitamin E paraffin wrap, hot towels and a hot stone massage with warm candle oil.

Gel versions of the manicure and pedicure menu are priced separately, and each one lists its own takeoff fee. Acrylic and gel extensions, builders, ombre and two tone sets are offered, with refill pricing listed for returning clients.

Hygiene is a stated priority. Implements are sterilized and disinfected after each use, and buffers and files are single-use and discarded. Waxing covers the face, underarms, bikini line, back, arms and legs, and eyebrow waxing and tinting are also offered.

Parties of more than six people can call the salon to arrange a booking.
