ABOUT

Since 2013, Sparkle SF has been a stand out salon space where creativity, good vibes and nail art fantasies thrive. As a team of highly trained nail artists who are passionate about our craft, we want our clients to leave with personalized, beautiful and long lasting artistic nail creations that inspire joy and spark conversation. It's been an amazing experience sharing something we love, seeing the joy it brings and having it light something up inside another -- and in some cases even inspiring them to pursue their own path of nail artistry. Beyond nail appointment services, we're thrilled to offer classes and workshops, community events and product collaborations to share our knowledge and love of nail art!

Honomi

We beyond happy to have Honomi as our guest artist in residence at Sparkle SF! Honomi was trained and certified as a nail artist in Tokyo, Japan. Her mission is to bring the cute vibes from Tokyo to the nail art lovers in San Francisco. She believes that “Nails are something you notice everyday, and others do too - it’s such an easy way to feel cute and lift your mood. That’s why I love what I do!” Honomi will be a guest artist at Sparkle for as long as possible. You won’t be disappointed with her unique and impressive nail art, technical skills and sweet personality.

Security

Nacho

Nacho has been our security guard for 13 years. He is tiny but mighty and keeps us alert to any funny business or shady characters in our proximity. Caution: he might bark at you when he wants attention (which is either pets, back scratches or treats). He loves humans but has a territorial streak when it comes to other doggies and can be a real grump to them. Since he's almost at retirement age, he only comes to work once a week, and when he does, he mostly sleeps and farts.

MEET MIA

Also know as @SuperflyNails

Mia is the Founder and day-to-day manager of Sparkle SF. She is a San Francisco native and SF State University graduate who studied business and entrepreneurship. When she realized corporate life wasn't fulfilling, she found nail art as a creative outlet. Her passion for painting tiny art on her nails fueled the idea of launching a nail studio focused exclusively on nail art. Sparkle SF was born in San Francisco’s Mission District and remains a hotspot for unique nail art. Mia is no longer accepting new clients. To work with her on editorial, photo or video projects please reach out via email.
