    Basic pedicure
    Janine M.

    I decided to stay close to where I was and pop in to the first spot I found. This place was BUSY. I had to wait almost an hour for a pedicure that was reasonably priced- $25 for the basic plus $5 for gel polish removal. The massage chairs suffice, but the whole experience wasn't anything fancy. Realized that my right big toe wasn't really cut straight across, but on a positive note- the lady who did my pedicure wasn't super rough and in a hurry to get it over with. I feel like products used were as basic as my pedicure. If you want fancy, I wouldn't say this place was it. If you're in a hurry, this place isn't it either. If you want good value for your money it'll work. I believe I overheard that the gel pedicure was $35 and a manicure is $25, but I couldn't find a posted price list so take this with a grain of salt and ask. There's limited parking along the street or around back.

    I love my nails so much!! I walked in today and they were able to take me in super quickly. I didn't get my nail tech's name, but she did such an amazing job! She was so gentle and my nails came out perfect. Everyone was really nice and friendly, and the salon was clean and welcoming. The price was great and the whole appointment was pretty quick too! I'm so happy with how my nails turned out and will definitely be coming back!

    I came in for my first time wanting acrylic overlay, Kimmy went out of her way to give me what I asked for. She really did a great job, thank you Kimmy! Definitely will be coming back.

    I tried this place because it is close to home and they gave me an affordable quote. The manicurist was a little rude. She cut way too much of my cuticle & skin that my fingers were sore for 2 days. And now this is 12 day retention on builder gel nails. Chipping on all several tips. I've had builder gel last me well into 4 weeks, so this was a disappointment.

    I'm always happy with the results of the service I receive; I've been a customer since 2024 and highly recommend you for the excellent work.

    First time here and will definitely be coming back! Everyone was so nice, not just to me, but to all their customers.

    I came in for a gel polish removal and manicure set . I told the lady i wanted a short trim and almond shape (which i came in with) , she cut the lenth of my ring finger and i agreed with it then proceeded to cut the rest unevenly , i tried to trust the process , she asked again what shape i said i want almond which ive gotten before (a short almond) she proceeds to do "coffin"!?!? I tear up bc my nail is so short at that point i tell her thats fine , i dont get a color and they still make me pay the 28$ . On top of that the lady hurt me so many times and they still made me pay

    Anna did such an amazing job with my nails! She really took the time to match my reference photo exactly, and made sure I was happy with them every step of the way. The other nail techs in the shop were also very lovely and friendly. Highly recommend getting your nails done here!

    My loveeeeeeee!! I…read moreactually went and got my nails done today so I am super excited to write this review. There is no one better than Tammy because she loves what she does and always strives for excellence. She is an artist and is always down to try new designs. Sometimes, I love going to her and telling her to do whatever she wants and they always turn out super cute! You have to make an appointment and she works out of her home but she is very flexible and accommodating. She is one of the most friendliest people you will ever meet and you'll never be disappointed with your nails.

    I absolutely adore Tammy! Not only is she super talented and professional she is a lovely human…read morebeing. I started seeing Tammy about a year and a half ago and I have followed her wherever she goes since. Her current studio is super cozy and I love the fact that her services are one on one, that means no one else in the studio while you get your services. She also doesn't work with acrylic so there is no bad chemical smell to deal with which is something else I love. I highly recommend her to all my friends and family. Tammy has a great artistic sense and her attention to detail is what I love most about her nail artistry. She has helped me grow my nails out with gel overlay and my toes have never gotten as many compliments as they have after I started seeing her for pedis. The nail art Tammy creates is so fun. Like I said before, she is very talented and is a great collaborator whenever I have a hard time deciding on a design. Shes at her most creative when working without limitations but can also easily make an inspiration picture your very own special moment. I enjoy simple yet intricate designs that won't interfere with my mostly active lifestyle. I have made it to 4 weeks in between appointment when traveling but prefer to see her regularly after 2.5-3 weeks to avoid potential breakage since I grew my nails out. It's also super addicting to have gorgeous nails and toes so I try to be as consistent as possible. When I started seeing Tammy I had broken up with my regular manicurist of 5+ years. My nails would often break because of the poor care that my natural nails received, they were being overly filed, my fingers were overly soaked, overly cut cuticles, wrongly shaped nails that would break easily and I would walk away feeling unhappy more often than not towards the end. Tammy changed all that! Getting my nails done is a lovely self care routine now and I would be lost without it! Last thing I'll add is that I drive from Santa Monica to San Gabriel and I don't think twice about it because I value quality and attention to detail above the convenience of and uncertainty of going to a random salon down the street. Oh and one last thing... the charm, jewels, decals, chromes, glitters and shell selection is AMAZING!!!!!

    I chose this salon expecting a professional experience. When a business advertises licensed…read moreprofessionals and charges premium prices, I expect professional-quality work. Unfortunately, this appointment fell well below that standard. I was originally quoted $80 for a Gel-X set, but once I arrived I was told there would be an additional $10 charge just to remove my existing Gel-X. From there, nearly every option came with another surcharge. Glitter was an additional charge, and placing the glitter at the base of the nail instead of the tip increased the price even further. The pricing structure felt confusing and constantly changing, making it difficult to know what the final cost would be. After hearing the additional charges, I decided against getting a new set and paid $45 for a manicure after the Gel-X removal. For $45, I expected my natural nails to leave looking polished and professionally finished. Instead, I left with: * Jagged, uneven nail edges that were not properly filed * Visible product residue still left on multiple nails * Uneven nail surfaces * Dry, unfinished cuticles * Nails that looked incomplete rather than professionally manicured I took photos immediately after leaving because I couldn't believe this was the finished result. The service itself was also disappointing. My technician, Annie, repeatedly stopped working on my nails to answer phone calls and attend to other matters. The appointment felt interrupted and rushed instead of relaxing. A manicure should feel calm and focused. This did not. The salon also raised concerns for me. The supply/storage area visible to customers was cluttered and disorganized, and I observed nail files being reused, which made me question the sanitation standards. Even checkout was frustrating. I wanted to leave a tip for the technician who performed my pedicure because she did a nice job, but the payment process made it difficult to direct the gratuity to the correct person. The biggest disappointment is that none of these issues should exist regardless of the price. Whether a manicure costs $25 or $45, customers should leave with nails that are smoothly filed, free of leftover product, and professionally finished. Those are basic expectations--not luxury extras. I left feeling disappointed, overcharged, and with nails that I could have filed more carefully at home myself. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend this salon.

    I've been consistently coming to Friendly Nails for the last few years. I usually call first thing…read morein the morning to check their availability for the same day & if it's too busy I'll ask to book an appointment for the next day or future date. All of the nail techs are great! I request for Cici when I want to do cat-eye or more simple gel manicures. If I want more artsy designs, I'll usually request for Ella or Karen. Gel manis are still $45, with full cat-eye adding an additional $15. Hand drawn art design nails may add between $4-6 per nail, depending on the design; while if you're okay with stickers, it may be $2-3/each. More intricate nail designs will require more time & cost more depending on what it is -- so I would inform them if this is something you want to do so they can allot the right amount of time for your booking. I typically spend about 1.5-2 hours to get my nails done (including removing the previous months' nails, nail trimming, shaping, cuticles, etc.) As stated before: Easy parking in the First St. structure behind the shop. Restroom available in the back of the store & always clean. They also do have bottled water, if needed.

    My Response to Business owner :…read more Thank you for your response. I would like to clarify that my review is based on a realistic account of the service I received on May 19, 2026. While you describe the pace as 'efficient,' the service was incomplete by standard industry definitions. Specifically, the pedicure did not include the essential steps of a foot scrub, a foot massage, or cuticle cleaning. These are standard components of the service I paid for, and their omission is why I felt the experience was unsatisfactory. Furthermore, my comments regarding the tip were not a reflection of a personal preference, but rather a reaction to the staff's persistent pressure. When service falls short of the expected standard, I believe a customer should be able to decline a gratuity without being pressured by staff to justify that decision. My goal in sharing this review was simply to provide honest feedback regarding my experience, and I stand by the account I provided.
