Paul! Paul! Paul ! And Paul!!! I fell in love with the work he did on my full self acrylics. And most of all got in there at 3:10 left at 3:25. Seriously?? What else more can you ask for !! read more

Last visit here was horrible. Have been going to this nail salom for at least 5+ years. Gotten everything from eyebrow waxing to mani and pedis. Usually okay. Kind of busy, but this last visit was horrible. I took my daughter and her friend, and the nail tech was so rude. My daughter asked for a speicfic color, and nail tech did differnt color. We asked her to change it but she refused. One of the nails was messed up, and she refused to fix it. She sinply told my daughter no. Not sure if this rude treatment was because the girls are still children but I'm payiregular full price so I expect them to be treated nicely. read more

I have tried many places. I have been going to carnation nails for the past 2 years. I love it. I go to paul and he is amazing. The manicure lasts for 2 weeks and i love it. read more

This is the worst nail salon I have ever been to. I just moved to the area and decided to try the place out. The first time I was there, I didn't have to wait at all, they took me in right away. I was disgusted by the lack of hygeine there...the floor was dirty with other peoples' nails, etc. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because it was the end of the day and I figured that they hadn't had a chance to sweep up yet. I decided to give the place one more try for my next pedicure and I regreted it even more than the first time. The place was filthy as hell! The elderly woman that did my pedicure had claws growing on her toes instead of nails (made me want to vomit every time I looked down). Once she finished polishing I saw that my big toe nail was crooked and when I asked her to fix it she said: "why didn't you say anything sooner?"...WTF, I need to tell you how to do your job? Also, more than half of my toes were either polished crookedly or the polish was on my cuticle. Worst experience ever...TWICE!!! read more

got full set acrylic she was so cute and nice and def knew what she was doing, wasnt pushy at all and really reasonably priced. so cute thank you tammy! read more

Ana is the owner and she is the sweetest .This nail shop is just old school and isn't up to date to all these bling-ed out nails ppl like now a days . But if you like simple ,like me check Ana out . read more

Organic gel nails are the bomb. Doesn't need ultraviolet light to dry. Goes on quickly and dries quickly. Ask for Kim

Yesterday I tried to go to take care of my nails and one Asian lady inside who was a little older turned around to the guy who was working inside and told him something in Chinese and then the guy told me we can't help you at this moment cause the store is closed but the sign said open and it was pretty insulting. Today just now I tried to go to do my nails and I waited inside for 10 min and the same Chinese guy told me we can't help you and I asked him why he said because you have tatoos and we don't serve people with tatoos and I felt just got insulted again. read more

This may not be the most fancy of nail salons, but the staff is friendly and easy to talk with. The place is clean and well kept. This is the perfect place to go to for a color change or a quick pedi. Prices: Mani- $9 and a Pedi- $11 I'd give it 4 stars just for convience, but in the grand scheme of things, this small operation lacks some immenities to really get that rating. Will I go back? Of course! Recommend it? Yes, but only if you live near by. read more

Their work is decent (Paul does a good with acrylics) but their customer service is poor. They are rude and never keep their appointments.

I used to go here, but I recently changed my nail salon because I don't like their service or work. I almost always get pink and white, but they aren't thorough and my nails start to look bad after a few days. They aren't very nice and it's obvious they're talking about their customers. They rarely speak to you or try to have a nice conversation. I used to go there because it's close to my house, but I decided to find a new place because I'm not happy with their work. read more

Found this place because it's near my home. They go great spa pedicure. Keep the nails very clean. Very clean place as well. But they only accept cash. read more

Rude staff!!! I called for an appointment asking for Tina and the guy that answered the phone said that she had quit so when I asked for someone else he said that I am not welcomed there anymore and that I should go to another nail salon and then he hung up on me! Rude! read more

I love this place. I dont let anyone do my nails in all of CA except Paul, or Henry! They are the best. Always accomodating with my last minute behind. Very convenient local. THANK YOU FELLAS!! read more

Horrible u ask them t I fix it but they say no they are beautiful!!! Like wtf!!!! My nail lady will be back in Wednesday..... Can't wait. Waisted 91.00 on two gel mani's and two bucket pedicures!!!! read more

THis is my favorite nail salon. There is nothing fancy about it, no spa chairs or anything, but its clean, the staff is friendly, its cheap, and they always do an amazing job on my nails. I always go here if i want a design on my nails because they are the only ones that have ALWAYS gotten it right. FOr the price and the people i will never go anywhere else. In fact, i now live 15 miles away and i drive down just for them. My only recommendation is to call in advance.The last few times i went in they were packed! read more

I've been going to Carnation for years and have always had good service. Paul does an excellent job on my acrylics, as does Henry. Henry's wife, Kim, now does waxing, and does a very decent job. The entire staff has always been friendly, polite and accommodating, and the prices are very reasonable.. read more

This place is a dump! The moment I got here, I should've trusted my gut. This place is filthy, dirty and their work's so sloppy. I even asked the guy if he can do the simple nail art that I asked for, showed him a picture and he said yes. I was totally fooled by their ratings here and decided to give them a try. I am never coming back. This place is not worth your money. read more

I came here today with my friend to get a gel fill and we were told that there was nobody that could help us and there was empty seats and we have no tattoos We are a normal-looking people and this place is just the most disgusting nail salon I have ever been to in my life do not waste your time going here go somewhere else there's Chic nails on Tampa there's Nailized over in Northridge there's J K Nails in North Hills they're all much better and they give you proper service. The old lady that was sitting in the front she's very rude and very disgusting and has no class whatsoever. read more

I don't like to give bad reviews but the person that did my nails was so rude and honestly her work is horrible! She was so rude through the process and I decided not to say anything to see if she will stop but never did. She is the lady with short her (older lady) if you go make sure she doesn't do them . So they charge me and than she decides to stand right next to me when they were giving me the change. Did she really expect me to give her tip when it was a really bad service! Definitely never coming back read more

Nai does the most amazing pedicures. She takes her time and does very detailed work. I would recommend this place, especially Nai and her pedicures read more

Love Henry.! Henry's pink & white is the most perfect one in the valley.! Reasonable prices and great location.

Clean and friendly. The owner is always there making sure all is going well. They have a variety of gel nail polish at affordable price. Make an appointment or you will wait long time. They also so facial and make up. read more

Excellent! Best in valley! Ask for Paul. He is the best! Uses glitter acrylic and does amazing nail art and 3 d nail art!

I just got my nails done by Paul and I loved it! First time here and everything is good! He fixed all my nails that I previously had done by Nikki at exquisite nails. And made it the way I wanted and the prices is cheap here. Will be coming back for a fill! Great job Paul see you soon! read more

Been coming here for five years now. Paul is my go to guy for acrylics and Tina for pedicures. Haven't gone anywhere else for years and it doesn't hurt that there is a Starbucks right next door. Everyone is really friendly and they always give me an appointment the day of when I call so that's a plus! read more

Cady does awesome eyebrows!!! Went in with thin eyebrows, she took her time gave my eyebrows TLC and I came out with clean, perfectly shaped eyebrows. If you're like me and afraid of people knicking and rushing your brows, go to Cady she did not disappoint! read more

I would honestly give 5 stars but the lady I got was a little on the rude side; however, she did my nails really well, I got a regular mani pedi and the polish stayed on my hands for a weeks with no chipping I was impressed. My toes stayed on for a long time. The facility is very clean and well air conditioned. read more

This is the best nail shop in all of Southern Cali! The prices are great too and they are so nice! :D This place will forever be my nail salon! read more

Every one who works there is so friendly I have been a client since March I love the pedicures they ROCK , and the price is very reasonable as well , I have even seen some guys go in and to me it takes a REAL man to take care of themselves like that I would fly accross the state to use this place thanks to the whole crew for spoiling me read more

Love this place! Affordable, and I'm lucky enough to live within walking distance. I have a few friends who drive quite a distance just to get their nails done here; by Henry. Supposedly he's the genius when it comes to nail art and acrylics. I personally am a mani-pedi girl, so I'm good with whoever is available. And their massage chairs are to die for. So much so that you can barely notice if they talk smack about your cuticles in a different language-lol. Just be prepared to pay cash. read more

I have been going here for years Julia Paul and Ni do the best job. A friendly place to go for acrylics manicure and pedicure.

I have been going here for 5 months if not more. The place is small, not on the cleanest side. Usually Kim and Nai do my nails. Kim does an amazing deep powder. My nails always looked so good after she was done and lasted more than 2 weeks. Nine is amazing with pedicure. Last time, I made an appointment a day before again with Kim but Nine wasn't available so I made it with Julie for pedicure. I was late 10 min but I called and they said it's ok. I come at 9:10am and Paul, the owner, tells me that Kim is not available and he will do my nails. It was the worse experience in my life! He did my nails for 2 hours! Very slow. Was distracted every 2 min. He was very rude with his employees. Plus, the whole time he was hurting me with the machine! The most painful deep powder I ever done!!!!! I was bleeding on every finger! I told him that the machine was hot for me and painful and he didn't even pay attentions nd just continued. Then he put the top coat and it was so ugly and not smooth! Kim came out and redid my top coat afterwords! I also asked him to do basic manicure before the deep powder, he ignored me again and said that he doesn't do manicure. My pedicure that Julie did was very poorly painted. My 5 year old can do a better job. I try not to write a bad reviews and especially for family business but it was the worse experience. Very unprofessional! He didn't even apologize. And I paid full price. I would even give 2 stars but because of Kim I have more. Unfortunately will not be coming here again. read more

Long story short I walked in this morning with my daughter, we were the first ones there. The whole process took FOREVER because she kept stopping to answer the phone and book appointments. I had to pick my baby up from therapy at 11:50. Once I realized that I was running out of time I told her "this took a lot longer than I planned for. I have to leave very soon to pick my daughter up or I will be late." She still took her precious time answered another phone call, got up to get her appointment book. By this point I'm pissed. I don't play when it comes to picking up my kids. Exactly why I went in the with a good 1.45 mins to play with. I told her that we can't finish bc I needed to leave, at this point it was now 11:50 (the time I was suppose to pick my daughter up). Now, she's rushing to finish me. I walked out without my hand massage (she tried but I told her 6mins before that I didn't have time to finish my color), color on both my hands & feet but clearly far from happy. When you walk in and the only people in the nail shop it should never take an hour and 45 mins to do a simple gel mani and regular pedi. The color job was good tho. So all that to say if you have nothing but time on your hands then this is your spot. read more

I used to go to Carnation all of the time, but then I moved to Pasadena (3 years ago), and have not been able to find anyone better than Henry! He's fast, clean, and does a phenomenal job. Starting tomorrow, I will start making the drive (20 miles) to have him do my nails. Try it, you'll like it. read more

Horrible nails !! I went in to do my nails today and I wanted basic coffin black matte nails !!! They were all grainy !! Stay away please!!!

The worst pedicure I've ever gotten. The girl didn't look at what she was doing, she kept looking to the side and at other people, cut my nails too short to the point they were painful and then filed by skin because there was no nail left to file, my nails are uneven, pooly filed and poorly painted. The girl seemed like she hated her job and did not want to be there. And then she had the never to stand in front of me and ask me fir a tip and glared at me until I gave her a dollar. Will not go back. read more

Well I'm giving 3 stars because this place used to be much better. And that's all! They have lost it. Maybe too much business? Paul used to do my nails years back and I was always happy with his work. It was clean and creative. Went there 3 months ago and not only his work was messy he also not very much in touch with the latest trends anymore. I wanted to give Henry a try so I did. I have to admit he does a cleaner job however when I showed him a picture and told him I wanted that design he said he is going to do something even better than that. When he started with one nail I told him I didn't like what he was doing and he was keep saying its not done yet and I will love it when it's done. So he basically pressured me to a design I didn't like. At the end I told him well I've been telling you I don't like it and now it's done and I don't like it and he said well its too late. These guys are not professionals and they do the native language talk way too much. It gets a little annoying. read more

I came here bright and early for an impromptu manicure. An was extremely zen-like and detail oriented. I appreciated her presence, service and work so much, I will be coming back here to get my nails done by her again soon. read more
