    About a couple weeks after my visit. She sanded my nail down still it was pretty much transparent
    Tida C.

    I haven't been to this salon since I was in high school. Back then it was just for a pedicure so I did give it a better rating. I recently was in town and the nail salon I normally go to was closed for remodeling but the gel nail extensions I had reallllllyyyyy needed to come off. I figured I'd just come here because I'm sure they'd know what to do right? Wrong. I was the first customer that morning and I asked if they could take off my gel extension. The lady inspected my nails and asked me- 'gel?' I said, 'yes, gel extension- can you take them off?' She replied, 'honey those are just acrylics.' As I type this- I'm letting off a huge sigh because that was my first red flag since they were not your typical acrylics. Anyway, she sat me down and immediately started sanding away at the red gel- red gel dust was flying all over the place. She got finally got to the plastic tip and started inspecting my nails again. She asked me if I wanted to paint them and I said no but maybe a clear coat would be fine. She said okay- this will cost $15. I agreed to it and she started shaping my nails. I wasn't sure why she was shaping them because the plastic was still on there. Finally, she said- 'You come back next week. Your nails are too thin. It'll break if I take this off." Woaaah there. I told her that I didn't have the time to do that and to please take them off today. She started tutting and literally picking at the plastic that was GLUED ON. She then asked me, 'What is this?' I was so upset but stayed calm and told her, 'They're the plastic from the gel extension. The last time I took this off- they just did a wrap and then scraped it off.' Her friend got her a bowl of acetone and she began to soak my nails. I felt a little relieved until she took her drill out and started to use the drill to remove the soft polish. At one point she was sanding away for so long that my nail beg got hot and I had to ask her to stop because it hurt. At one point she began asking me where I got it and berating me for getting this done. 'This is very bad for your nails.' 'Your nails are very weak because of this.' 'You should never let her (that last manicurist I went to) do this to you again.' Really? On top of that, she told me she now needed to charge me $20 because it was 'very hard' to do this job. I won't be coming back here I'm afraid. TLDR; Had gel extensions and wanted to remove it, I was told they knew how- they didn't. She damaged my nails and some of them are transparent from her sanding away for too long. Don't bother coming here, there are plenty of other affordable places that know what they're doing.

    First let me say I didn't get the lady who did my gel mani and pedi's name but she did a good job. But to the manager/owner she did such an awful job on my nieces full set(see pictures) the first thing I told her was these are awful and showing her all the nails that were messed up she kept shaking her head "no no they're fine it's because she bites her nails that's why" so I said because she bites her nails you cant apply acrylic nails correctly? Mind you we have never had problems at any other nail salon because she "bites her nails". so she proceeded to tell me "no no $41" there was a customer standing there listening in and I showed her the nails and she even said to the manager lady "what happened why are they like this?!" And the manager lady literally yanked her hand away from my nieces hand and told her "don't touch!!" And proceeded to say "I've been doing nails many many years! $41!" If you take pride in your work(since you said you've been doing nails for years) and appreciate your customers enough she could have owned up to it and just easily said hey your unsatisfued? come back another day and I will fix it. Instead of argue with me that they are fine.

    Went here for a set of nails and a pedicure and they were very professional and made sure what I wanted was executed. Very clean and welcoming place don't sleep on them.

    If I could I will give this salon no star. About a week ago I needed a pedi fixed so I came across this salon. At first I was kinda skeptical, but hey! You pay what you get. I have noticed there's mold against spa chair wall. And not only that! I've seen a few manicurists reused filers and buffers! I was disgusted and on top of that there's cut toe nails from the pervious customer floating in my water. I do not recommend this salon. Sorry to say.

    Love this place for nails but never get your hair done here Kenzi ruined my hair came in for my roots to be touched up and walked out with a completely different look and I even had bangs without even getting a hair cut meaning my hair was damaged and was breaking this is not a hair salon. When I asked Kenzi for a refund she said no refund I spent too much time on your hair.

    Look how sloppy this is.

    The ladies I had sucked. I wanted a red bow on my ring finger in memory of my cousin who recently passed away, she kept trying to draw the bow and kept erasing it because she couldn't draw it. She obviously didn't go to school for this. So then when I told her to forget about it she blames me and says my nails are "too small." All the other workers around watching her didn't offer to draw it either. The lady doing my pedicure cut the length of my toenails all crooked. I deserve a refund and I will never come back to this place again, I will also let all my friends know that this place is THE WORST.

    I get it, it's prom season and you guys are busy, but really!? This looks so awful! You can tell this was rushed..
    Corine W.

    My sister got her nails done for prom this coming Saturday and they look awful!! She was too embarrassed to say anything so she left with them looking like crap. I get it, it's the end of the school year so you guys are busy, but really!? They looked so rushed and just horrible. We are definitely not coming back.

    For about a year I went there to Kenzy to get my hair needs taken care of. Shame on me!! Color was never consistent. No record of colors used. Ended up with fried bands of color. Final straw was when Kenzy informed me " It doesn't matter what I do to your hair. I know that you always come back to me." That was my wake up call. Went to Palmdale Ulta. Never returned to Kenzy and have never been happier.

    Love my bows on my blue french tip

    I've been going here since I was in jr. High and of course it all depends on who you go with that makes the difference but carol and Sandy are amazing. They always take care of whoever they are working on. When I go in and ask for something I find on pintrest they make it happen! And prices are resonable. I However do not like the change of ownership because they are no longer on the temple city rams card (which not only supported the school also provided a 10% discount). I just hope that changes next year

    Don't go to her! Actually save yourself don't go here!!

    My friend got her acrylics taken off here after only a week of having them on because they did a poor job. When she came to get them taken off instead of soaking the acrylics in acetone THEN removing them the lady just tore them off. My friend was flinching the whole time making it obvious it was painful but the lady obviously didn't care. She then took only one acrylic off and was going to let me friend leave with 2 missing nails. Not to mention the color selection and place is dingy. Hailey nails in Monrovia is the best!!

    Linda is awesome! Great service... Everyone there is friendly definitely recommended to friends family. Julie did my nail and love it! U can't find a place that give excellent service friendly and good price.

    My daughters nails had lumps and looked nothing like the picture she us3d white tips instead of clear and she got a bug bite on her hand
    Jacqueline O.

    This nail salon deserves no stars! My daughter showed her a picture of what she wanted and she said she could do it charged her 35 dollars for nails that looked nothing like the picture. I wasnt trying to get my money back but at least a discount for messing het nails up right before her Quinceneara. I told her i would give her 27 dollars but she wasnt willing to give me some money back without takung her nails off. Do not go to them if you want something done right go to nails and facial! They are great!

    Dirty gross place and bad service The Girl colored my hair the wrong color and they change the price after they started

    I recommend Linda(the salon owner) for a manicure and definitely Wendy for a pedicure.

I called ahead to ask if they accepted walk-ins and was told yes. I said I'd be there in 10 minutes, and when my sister and I arrived, we were barely acknowledged. The man at the counter just stared at us looking confused, while another employee asked what we wanted in a very rude and unwelcoming tone. When I explained that I had just called about a walk-in manicure, she acted like she had no idea what I was talking about. She then started asking "One manicure? Two? What do you want?" in an almost interrogating tone instead of simply greeting us or telling us to have a seat and pick colors like they used to. The whole interaction felt awkward, dismissive, and honestly uncomfortable. Customer service and basic courtesy matter. We ended up leaving because I'm not giving my business to a place that treats customers that way. Really disappointing experience. If only I could give this place a zero, I would.

Eight days after that $180 set, one nail completely fell off with no pain. Anna said she didn't know why it happened, booked me three days later to fix it, and charged me $20. Four days after the repair (about two weeks after the original set), 9 out of 10 nails were lifting from the sides. Again, Anna said she didn't know why and initially told me to come back in three days. I explained I was concerned about moisture and possible fungus, and suddenly she had availability the same day. That was frustrating. When I arrived, Anna didn't examine my nails or apologize. Another tech removed and reapplied a new set, and I was charged $80. Within two weeks, I had spent $280 total. I was only given a $20 gift card. Eleven days later, my thumb nail fell off again. When I reached out, Anna once more said she didn't know why. After spending hundreds of dollars here, I'm very disappointed with how this was handled. The customer service was poor, and I would not recommend this salon.

    There was a girl at work that had the cutest nails every week and it turned out that she was…read moregetting her nails done by Lannie. I actually drove from South Bay to San Gabriel (LOL) because I was really enamored and respected her artistry. I loved the little salon and how professional Lannie is. She's been in the industry for well over two decades and it clearly shows. I appreciated her patience with me as I'm new to getting nails done. The single one star review is actually from a temp employee that is no longer with Lannie! Her prices are on par with most salons. If I remember correctly, it's $40 for single color gel, and then $2-3 per nail for art, $2 per nail for gold flaking. Obviously it really depends on the designs you want but expect about $75 on average, and don't forget to tip either. If you're not sure, she responds pretty quickly to estimated costs. The gel manicure lasted me about 2 weeks, and I ended up taking mine off at home but didn't do it correctly so my nails are pretty bad and will probably take a few more weeks or months to get back to what they were like before. I'd just get it taken off for $10 or so at a reputable salon next time I get gel. I'd love to come as a regular but the salon itself is too far away for me to be comfortable to make that time commitment (2 hour roundtrip + 2 hour appointment) every two weeks. So for now, I think I'll probably try to stop by when I have a day off or for special occasions. Lannie's really busy, expect to need to book an appointment 2-3 weeks out.

    Lannie = Awesomeness! Look at my before & after pictures. nuff said…read more Okay, I'll elaborate. Super glad I found Lannie, thanks to Yelp & Yelpers. I almost don't want to share bc she's already as booked as it is, but's she's so awesome it'd be a shame if not more people know about her & her work. If you're looking for a Saturday, call 3-4 weeks in advance. There may be cancellations but I wouldn't count on it. Weekdays are a little better, esp. during fall/winter, however, still call as early as you can just to be sure. Looking forward to many more fun nails appointments.
