    Two days after my pedicure I got an infection on my skin and near my toe nail on my middle toe. I have never had an ingrown nails nor any feet related problems until I came here. This just shows how low priority hygiene is to this establishment. This is so disgusting and never should have happened.

    I'm a girlie girl and love the nail salon. I have been going to Cathy's Nails & Spa since they opened and I absolutely love it! Mimi does my nails & Sami does my pedicure. We always have the best conversations and laughs when I am there. My nails & feet are always perfect. If you are in the West Covina area and are currently looking for a new salon, I highly recommend Mimi & Sami

    Dirty and unsanitary. I only came here to take off my gel-x nails and I regretted it as soon as I saw their tools. My nail tech did not completely remove my gel-x nail which I had mentioned to her a few times and I still had parts of the nail coming off after I left. Ridiculous! Not the best customer service or experience. I do not recommend coming here, ever!

    I came in to get an acrylic overlay (acrylic powder over your natural nail). I asked to remove the acrylic for a new set. Instead of soaking off the acrylic, Mimi started harshly popping it off with a fake nail tip. This caused my natural nail to rip and hurt. I stopped her after 4 nails, in shock. I told her she ruined my growth and she said "it's fine we can still do it" I got up and left. I do not understand why this would happen, please remove product safely from clients nails.

    Beautiful nails

    I've been coming to this place for a couple years! Super reliable and affordable! I just had my nails done for my sisters wedding and I love them! I was talked into the gel x and they are exactly what I wanted! We added a chrome top coat and they shine so beautifully!! Love this place!!

    Not worth the it at all

    To expensive for French style 15+ 50 for the smallest nails- so not coming back at all - I don't care to pay but for something that that is worth it

    I love coming here. They are accommodating, the service is great, and they get you out in a timely manner.

    i always have the best experience at Cathy's! Mimi did my cat eye set today, so beautiful!

    my big toe is noticeably uneven

    I'be been coming here for 3 years now and each time it gets more disappointing. My big toes are always crooked and I have to straighten it with a file when I get home. I asked for an oval-square shape and gave me two big squares for my thumbs. The design is 6/10 for me. I kept showing her the picture throughout the appointment. Unfortunately I'm going elsewhere from now on. A week later and they're popping off!! terrible quality for $80

    I went in today for nail set and pedi with acrylic toes wanted French tip the did not know what I was talking about I wanted pick powder till the lady figure out acrylic that I had need it to be change that's they realize they did not have time for my set of nails and did a rush job on my toes they should not take people after 4 pm so they could take their time on their last clients my feet job is a disaster and I did not care about no discount I care about the job there is no way I'll go there again the picture will tell it got my feet looking like I'm 5 years old

    I can't express how HAPPY I am that I found this place…read more I have visited so many mail shops in West Covina, Covina and Glendale area and this is by far the best. It's not crowded. Super clean. The prices are the best in town. I loved the pedicure and nail set they I can't wait to go back

    My first time coming and I really REALLY wanted to like this place bc the ladies that helped me…read morewere really nice. HOWEVER, it was a disappointment for what I had paid. I got a mani-pedi and I decided to do gel on my pedi because it always lasts longer but my mani I did normal since the gel always got weird for me after. I had Cherry do my regular mani and Kim do my gel pedi. Kim's work was spectacular! honestly I would give HER a 5/5. She really focused on my nails despite us chatting away. She got rid of all my dead skin and my feet look super cute. I would come back just FOR HER only. She only started chatting AFTER she finished my pedi to make sure she focused on the service which now I truly appreciate. My manicure on the other hand was a complete disaster by Cherry. We related a lot because we spoke the same language and honestly she reminded me of an aunt. I didn't even realize HOW bad it was until I got into my car and I already had to leave. I did notice that she didn't spend a lot of time on my hands and she didn't do an extra layer of polish like most other techs to make my nails even looking. It also hurt when she was working on me as well. You can still see streaks of regular nail on them and the paint job was just bad. I understand its regular mani but I've never had it look like this before. I got my mani on Friday 8/8 and today is tuesday 8/12 the paint already chipped and my fingers look damaged. I paid roughly $80 since I had to tip both of them, and it was definitely not worth that price. I wanted to be a long time customer but after looking at my hands, I don't want to come back. For her its definitely a 1/5. Yeah, we talked but I think she slacked off bc she assumed I wouldn't say anything or complain. Unfortunately I am on the hunt again for a nail salon I can go to regularly. Photos to follow.

I truly believe that it should not have taken that long and the price that they charged me for something so simple is absolutely crazy to me. Again I came in for a simple short yellow French tip and they charged me $70 dollars. Honestly this work should not have been more than $55 dollars. Very unprofessional for the other two ladies that were there to be sitting in the front peeling and eating fruit very loudly. Overall was just not a great experience. I'd also like to say that when she was shaping my nails she was cutting me very bad she went so far as to reshape my actual nail under the acrylic. You can actually see my skin from under my nail when you look under. My nails were bleeding and swore after. She also laughed at me when I told her I didn't want Gel X and wanted acrylic, she said that the Gel x would last longer and I said that I had never tried it and didn't want it she laughed and then kept pushing it on me I told her no about 4 times until she just got quiet and started on my nails.

She took her time with my gel mani/pedi and I loved my first experience. She also made small talk. My second experience was two weeks after to get a gel mani and I had the male owner; i didn't really enjoy that experience at all. I actually called to make an appt the day prior. I still had to wait about 15-20 minutes which wasn't the problem. The problem was when I saw down several walk ins came and he RUSHED my gel mani to the point that my gel came off the next day and only a portion of my nails actually had color on them. I should have took a photo but I didn't. I don't like to talk bad about a small business but that type of service is unacceptable to me. I wanted to call to complain or go back but I honestly didn't have time bc I have two young ones at home and going to get these services are a luxury. I haven't gone back since. If I do go back, I'll ask for Hanna. I probably wont though.

I recently moved to Covina and this is the first Nail place I have gone to.. I was hoping for a pleasant experience in the hopes to make this one my go to place. I called on Saturday morning to see if they had availability and a gentleman answered the phone and said "yes if I can get there asap, they can do manicure and pedicure". I get there in like 15 mins, not 5 because I still had to get ready, that's on me. When I get there he tells me he now has availability for a manicure only, which I'm totally okay with. I took longer than I had said. I was just glad they took me in. Probably 20 mins in with my manicure he came and said they now have availability for a pedicure, which I was happy for, saving me the trip to go somewhere else after... Kathy did a great job with my manicure. As soon as another lady started with my pedicure I told her I had an ingrown nail in my right toe and I would appreciate it if she could get it out. I could see her trying to get it out and I see she pulls a piece of skin and I am thinking she will stop and cut it as soon as she takes it out, instead she keeps pulling my skin to the point where she peels off the front of my skin. A think layer by the way (as you can see in the picture). The gentleman that answers the phone walks around and he did noticed the lady had hurt my toe and didn't said anything. Looks like he is the supervisor or something, I thought he would say something when I was paying, but he didn't. I didn't want to argue because I already knew I wasn't going to come back. I should have taken the advice from one of the bad reviews they have here. Too late to regret it now. It's unfortunate that I paid $98 and walked out with my skin peeled off. I wanted to share my experience in the hopes that this won't happen to someone else. Save yourself time, money, and a bad experience. Go somewhere else. Not worth it. They don't even deserve the one star I have to give to post this.
