    Thick nails looked clunky!
    Carmen O.

    I got gift certificate from this place, and I think is the worst nail service I ever had! To start as there working on my nails sitting upfront, to do my pedicure. They have me twisted to the right to do my toes. It was very uncomfortable. I didn't finish pedicure service, because my toes nails were not clean and file properly. The person that did Hands was not great able or helpful. My nails we crooked to the left due to me being twisted. Never coming back.

    Not worth the applicator brush used to creat this mess!

    Horrible establishment! I've been here three times. Each time I've received three services. Each time, they are inconsistent. Fill: I've been charged three different prices. Initially I thought it was because of my nail length. So this time, before I went, I cut my nails down. I was charged even more! They up-sale you on standard maintenance services like cutting your nails down. I also requested that my fill not be thick with acrylic. To which the tech responded by not fully coating the nail at all. I pointed it out and was blamed for requesting a thin coat. Pedicure: It took all of 12 minutes from start to finish. And again with the up-sale. She didn't bother to buff my toe nails. File lines are visible through the thick rich cobalt polish that I chose! My cuticles are rugged and the skin on the sides of my toes are mangled due to her plucking away with the cuticle remover (yet not REMOVING the damn cuticle)! Brow & chin wax: My brows are as thin as pencil markings. They're inconsistent and choppy. Were it not for the Benefit brow kit I keep on hand, I might have demanded that she put my brows right back where they came from. More than anything, the place is unsanitary! They use the same brow waxing tool and pedicure kits on everyone. The last visit, I payed close attention and noticed that there wasn't any sanitizing liquid used to soak tools. Same with the brow waxing. As for my chin, I ended up going to Whole Foods and purchasing a kit right after my service. The health department should look into this establishment!

    They ripped my real nail off trying to take my tip off then she just put a new tip over my raw cuticle and it burned hella bad and they also tried to overcharge me and my boyfriend hella

    I'm so happy I found this little gem in Los Angeles about 6 years ago. Every time I come here I'm more impressed with the tech's skills. The prices are very reasonable. It's not to hard to find either right off of the freeway. I recommend Kelly, Amy, & Geni! Very friendly and they will accommodate you in the best way they can.

    These are the nails I requested.

    Summary: Don't come here! A $30-50 service ended up being $72, without tip. 1. Inflated prices 2. Lack of transparency regarding their prices 3. No documentation provided to the customer for proof of service My #1 problem was lack of transparency. I am born and raised in LA and have gotten my nails done at various places and have never spent this much on a FILL for my acrylics. Today, I needed my nails done and had nowhere else to turn. They weren't too busy which I appreciated. When I walked in, I told the lady in front I needed a fill. One of the manicurists came to see what I needed. I showed her a picture and she said she could do it. When I sat down, I asked about how much she thought it would cost. She responded with she had to do it to see, which I thought was odd. While getting my nails done, there was a young lady behind me getting a pedicure. A regular pedicure with a design costs her $40, which she mentioned was an outrageous price. When finishing my nails I thought they were okay (I later found a hair stuck in the polish on one of my nails when I got home) and they really only took 30 minutes. She told me it was going to be $72! I asked her why. Her response was... I got multiple colors, I cut them down, and diamonds are $15. They are a cash only establishment and they do not have an ATM so I was asked to leave my phone as collateral and I had to go to the bank. When I came back I gave her the money and requested a receipt. Then she said no. I then responded that I needed a receipt for my records and she responded, "sorry, no". I walked out and will not be returning.

    DO NOT waste your time or your money here! It is not worth it! You will get horrible customer service and bad quality nails! I came in here thinking I was going to get something decent and I came out disappointed. The lady that did my nails always has this ugly stupid bow on her head with the worst attitude. She didn't want to give me my money back or fix my nails after I confronted her about disliking the job she did! I barely got them done and they look like they are two weeks old and the shape of the nails are sooo ugly! Very disappointed, clearly she doesn't know anything about almond shape!

    This place is in the hood...but right off the 110 do no biggie, your not "deep" in the battle zone. When you go, only see KELLY!! SHE IS THE B E S T ! Her technique is incomparable, her price is unmatched ! I do believe if you see another here, you will leave unsatisfied. Go to Kelly and she dies so good YOU WILL WANT TO leave a tip . Chrome...gel...they got some new laser magnet thing they are doing now. I am up in the central coast so if I drive from Santa Barbara to here for my nails... It is worth it! I'm straight forward on all my reviews and I can write this in confidence and assure you that go to this shop and see KELLY ! SHE IS THE MANAGER AND AT THE FRONT TABLE SOON AS you walk in. As for the other few reviews stating attitude problems here... Let's think this over, they are in the ghetto. Hoover hood to be exact... On Fig where 'ladies if the evening roam' So yes they must be on guard, they might pre judge. And I do also when I go. You mist these days. Don't be racist...but pre judge. That gut feeling don't lie ! Let them know you are not from LA and conduct yourself in a 'non ghetto' manner and you will go far. They WILL go out of there way . Act ugly and you will get it in return. I have seen with my own eyes the ghetto slum girls be so rude to them, call them out there name and even threats to them for not allowing straggler use the bathroom as it is a public. Customer only should be common sense. Any who.... Give it a try , for your nails KELLY! FEET...whoever... Just go to Kelly for nails. Not fancy in furnishings ....but great on results ! Blessings favor and protection around this place !!

    First time and not from this area. Lady named Amy did my nails super quick no lie like 20 min, but omg she was sooo damn rude!!! Did a good job but that attitude was unnecessary!!! Amy if you read this learn to be more polite, you would have got a tip!!!!

    The first time I visited this shop, I was happy about my nails. They looked really nice. This time, this guy did my nails. When I first walked in the store, I was quoted $24 for chrome nails, when the guy finished the horrible job on my nails, he told me that I owed him $35. I was pissed but still paid and told her to never do that again. The man who barely spoke English, put a color on my nail that I didn't ask for but I told him to finish because I didn't want to be difficult. In the end my nails were done very rushed and sloppy. They looked better before he added color. It was bumpy abd he didn't fix it. Needless to say, I am very disappointing by his work and he will never touch my nails again. To make matters worse, I had to ask for oil to put on my dry hands from all that washing he had me do.

    This lady!!!!

    I've had 8 sessions back to back for my neck and face and it took 4 years for any serious regrowth!…read moreIt gives me such a glow and cleared my skin randomly! Was so amazing. Each session cost around $140-200. I will go back for touch ups.

    (10/10 if I could!)…read more I had an amazing experience at Plush Derma Laser Clinic & Skin Center. I made a last-minute appointment due to my busy work schedule, and several other places weren't able to help me the same day. Even though they were very busy, Plush Derma truly went above and beyond. From the very first phone call, Karina, the receptionist, was incredibly kind, patient, and professional. She answered all of my questions without rushing me and explained everything so clearly over the phone. Even though they didn't have a room available at that moment, she still took the time to accommodate me by scheduling me at a different location within the same Plush Derma clinic network. They have multiple locations, which makes it very convenient, and the process was seamless thanks to her help. The clinic itself is super clean, modern, and very welcoming. You feel comfortable and well taken care of from the moment you walk in. The entire team is professional, attentive, and truly makes you feel valued as a client--even from the first call. I highly recommend Plush Derma Laser Clinic & Skin Center, and a special thank you to Karina for being so kind, polite, and helpful. If I could give this place 10 stars, I absolutely would. They truly take care of you the way you deserve.

    Little Bit treated me to a Birthday gift card ((smile)) so I was excited to have the experience…read more It was hot as Hades outside but I arrived early and (since I read other reviews) knew the seating area would be outdoors so I brought my water flask. Clean cool environment inside, soothing vibes upon entry. Tracy has such a calming presence. Our session began with Tracy asking me questions about my regiment - which is pretty much non-existent (eye roll *yea I know I suck at taking care of my face) She explained that she conducts her facials as she sees what is best for the Client, after observing their skin pfft sounds good to me, saying that be aware that not all standard traditional facial products or procedures maybe needed for your session and trust that Tracy will do what is right for your skin. Respectfully Reviewed.

    First I start off by saying I am a licensed esthetician and an educator and I also provide facials…read morefor my clients. I wanted to treat myself to a professional service and it was far from professional. I drove 2 hrs to get to my appt and when I arrived 30 mins early I was sitting in my car and saw another lady get out of an Uber and go to the door. This business is ran out of her home, so you're not going to a spa or anything like that. Which I did not know until I arrived. My first thought was this can't be a client because my appointment is in 30 mins. I waited until about 15 mins till and walked up to the door. I could hear there entire conversation from outside as windows were open. I said hello, and Tracy comes out the door saying hi, I told her who I was and she says to me; so how are we on time? I said well I just drove 2 hrs for my appt that is supposed to start at 1pm. She says the client that was inside arrived late (not my problem) and she can try to get her done by 130pm. So basically you're telling me my appointment is pushed back and now I have to wait!? If anything the late client should have been canceled or moved to another time regardless of the situation. Side note: I was expecting to see a professional dressed like a professional instead she was in a skort and tank top as if she just worked out that day. I was a bit taken back because of how she moves on Instagram. She then asks me to sit out in her front yard under some trees while I wait. Like it's hot outside and bugs are flying around. I. Addition to this a big black crow flew over to the water fountain she has in her yard that completely made me think this is an omen and I should just leave. However, i drove so far and still wanted my facial. So I got into my car and wait however I needed to use the restroom and I couldn't because of this late client. I ended up leaving to go to Starbucks to use the restroom. When I returned I just sat in my car with air waiting for her to call. She finally called at 130 to tell me the lady was getting dressed. I went up to the door and she was having the other client walk out with a mask on her face, I could see it!!! Wow! She then said to me oh she came all the way from Virginia; like that was supposed to make me feel better about waiting girl I don't give a hell where she came from my appointment is at 1 not 130pm! So I go in and change in the restroom and I could hear them continue with their conversation. Once I came out she told her bye and had her wait on the porch for her ride. I then proceeded to get on the table. This was one of the most expensive facials I have had $400 for a 60 minute and I will say was the worst experience I've had thus far. Her conversation with me was a bit condescending and once she found out I was an esthetician as well the mood changed and her toned did as well. The fact that she didn't know what a green light treats on the skin was interesting to me. She began to say "how does it work"! Girl you need to look that up. She then began to ask me if I was familiar with chemical peels and I said yes of course, she then began to questioning me about what was the smallest molecule that should be used first, at that point I was done. She just had a way of making you feel belittled and less than, Some people need to really humble themselves. In addition to this, the first three things she used she went over my eye-lids. I had a rash on my left eye lid for two days after. She did a very short facial massage and like 4 extractions lol! After that she put a mask on and put me under the light for about 15 mins and then came back to do another masks for another 15 mins. She left the room both times for the entire time and was on her phone. The entire time I was there while in service her phone was ringing off the hook, every 10 mins or so it was chiming. Very unprofessional as I am paying for 60mins of your time to service me. Not sure if she was sanitizing her hands after touching her phone. That in itself is a problem. She made me feel like she didn't want to do my facial. I just remained professional and dealt with it as I will take this back to my students to share. She did not use not one steamed towel for my facial, not one!!That's a problem! She used these sponges to aggressively wipe my face. It was all bad for me! I was laying there just with anxiety on 10 with the whole thing. Most of my facial was under a mask and a light. $400! Everything you see online is not always the case. My time was wasted, my time was taken advantage of and was not respected. And my face did not have any change in it, bummer!! I read some of her reviews after the fact and see how some of these clients were treated. I was one of the ones who could relate to the poor service. I'm sure with her celebrity clients she dresses like a professional,acts like one and treats them with vip service. Would she have then push their time back, I seriously doubt it! This unfortunately was not one for me!
