I've been coming to this nail shop for years and always have a great experience. I usually get my nails, pedicure, and waxing done here, and their prices are very reasonable. Lily is the only person I go to she does an amazing job every time. I always call ahead to make an appointment with her, and she's always professional, friendly, and consistent with her work. Definitely recommend if you're looking for quality service at a fair price! read more

Look for Nina :) she's the best for making nail art. Love what she does, and very detail oriented read more

Here's the deal, if you are looking for customer service, FORGET THIS PLACE! They are absolutely and openly rude. They WILL talk about you in their native language with no shame. They WILL laugh about you and make fun of you, again, with no shame. They are rough with their hands, and they don't care if you complain. God forbid you complain, guess what? They'll talk about you some more as if you're not paying them for the service. They will huff and puff if you point out something you don't like. Then when it's time to pay, SUDDENLY they are soft spoken and magically nice. Bottom line, after giving them more than one chance, I don't recommend them one bit because they make you feel like you are not a paying customer as if they are paying of our their pocket for that service and not the other way around. read more

Great service for reasonable price. My mom and I are regulars at this place. All of the them are great! Won't go anywhere else.

I used to be a loyal customer at Century Nails for years, but lately, the service, especially from Lily, has gone downhill. Every visit, she seems ruder than the last. Not sure what her issue is, but I'm done giving this place my business. It was hard for me to write this review because I really wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt.. I kept thinking maybe she was just having a bad day but after giving her several chances, it's clear this is just how she treats people. I'd rather spend my hard-earned money somewhere I'm treated with basic respect, not looked up and down, scoffed at, or belittled. Plenty of other salons out there that actually appreciate their customers! read more

$95 for this, super disappointed. I kept asking for the price before she started but she wouldn't give me an answer but rather try to change the topic until it was too late to deny the service if it was out of budget. She even admitted to never having done long nails before, so I don't understand why she did mine. The shape is not what I asked and and they definitely aren't up to date on any trends including French tips. Lily did my nails, she was nice but pretty rough and gave me a couple cuts. I just needed last minute nails because I only go to nail techs never a salon anymore. I could've gotten a much much better set for this price. Never going back. I usually get my pedicures here but I don't wanna give them the business anymore. Super horrible. read more

I despise nail techs that are careless and rude. Long story short to the point I came in to remove the dip powder from my nails and get a gel manicure. The nail tech automatically without asking decided to cut my natural nail down cutting at least a month worth of growth. I immediately asked her why would she do that without asking me first if I wanted to trim them. She gave me so much attitude I was so pissed off I had to walk out. read more

I'm happy with my gel mani and reg pedi. They really took their time and did an amazing job. Only thing I didn't like is that after getting my pedi I had to wait quite awhile to get my mani because one of their regulars came in. Therefore they made me wait. but other than that I'm happy with everything else. Will update review and see how long nails last without chipping. read more

Who knew Lyly did Brazilian waxes here?!?! I've been coming here for a decade to get my nails and toes done and I always knew she did eyebrow waxing, but I had no idea she also offers a complete variety of waxing services. I have only trusted one of my besties (who is my one and only for facials and was my one and only for Brazilian waxes) for the past 2 decades. Sadly after I had my cutie pies, I'm lucky if I can get to Glendale to see her twice a year. Now that I've discovered this, I will be coming here in between my facials . Oh and of course, Holly does a phenomenal job with my nails and Hanna does an amazing job with my toes read more

I've been going to another place for years and thought I'd try out this place since it was closer to home. I saw a ton of great designs by Nina so I was definitely tempted to try out something new. My first visit left me disappointed because I went specifically to have Nina do my nails but she was on vacation. The owner ended doing my nails though and they did turn out awesome. The only part I didn't like is how little time they spent on my pedicure. It was literally the fastest pedicure I have ever had in my life. The spa tub chairs are so close together that a person cannot squeeze between without turning sideways. They also didn't offer, nor seemed to want, to do any designs on my toes. They clearly don't have enough spa chairs so they rush through the pedicures to free up the seats. The gel manicure I received had a nice design, however, they put so many coats of paint on my nails that it looked like I had acrylics - they looked fake. Despite my disappointment I gave them another go two weeks later since Nina returned from my vacation. My experience was exactly the same. Also, I am half Vietnamese and I was less than thrilled to hear the workers criticizing all of the customers, not knowing that I understood every word they spoke. I have since returned to my previous nail salon and have grown to appreciate them more after straying. read more

Century Nails - Exactly what I asked for! - Nail Salons Near Me - Covina, California

This little nail salon is just what I was looking for. For the past year I've been going to fancy salons that look pretty and serve mimosas. Unfortunately, the expensive price I paid was really for the atmosphere, not quality of nails. Century Nails is great! Li Li is a perfectionist! She takes her time and makes sure your nails actually look good. If you want a great set, you need to come to see her. If you're looking for a boutique salon, this is not the place for you. However, If you want a great set at a fair price, give it a try. read more

Century Nails - Nina u work magic on these yucky hands!!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Covina, California

I will never return to this nail shop. The shop needs a good scrubbing from top to bottom! The owner is rude and does not keep to the set appointments. We have waited at least 30 min past our appointment. read more

I have very mixed emotions about this location. It was my first time here and the customer service is horrible. Very rude in my opinion and attempting to finish quickly. The manicure itself however was great. I got all glitter and she didn't layer it on like other places. Instead it's very evenly coated and an overall clean manicure. Also it is very affordable; I only paid 20 for a gel manicure. So overall; if you don't care about friendliness, I recommend. If you do stay away because you'll feel very awkward coming in as a first time costumer. read more

I love getting my gel manicure done here, especially with Nina. She takes her time and always does an outstanding job. I always get compliments after she does her magic. Everyone loves her work, so it is difficult to get a "walk-in" with her, appointment is highly recommended. She is a genuinely sweet woman. The other girls are good too, but no one is better than Nina. Clean salon. The prices are the best! FYI, if you pay with a credit card, they charge you an extra dollar. Parking is alright. Lot can get full at times. read more

Fabulous, inconspicuous place to get your nails done. They have a vast selection of nail colors and gels. They accommodated my mom and I when we just walked in. My mom raved about how well the lady got her ingrown toenails... As gross as it sounds, it's actually music to my ears because she didn't complain about my choice in a nail salon. So if you have some nasty ass ingrown toenails, go to Century Nails. They will rip those suckers out without making your nail bed bleed. That's skill! read more

This is my second time around visiting century nails due to the decent Yelp reviews but after today's visit I'm not sure if I'll be returning... I came in today for a gel manicure and pedicure. The same lady who did my gel manicure ended up doing my pedicure. She ended up cutting my middle toe and it ended up bleeding. She blamed my cut toe on the massage chair. Ann worked on my gel manicure while I was getting a pedicure. She filed my nail very roughly and ended up splitting my pinky nail and over filing my ring finger on the sides to the point of exposing the nail bed with a cut into it. I also did not enjoy the fact that Ann poured acetone directly onto the tops of my hands to drip into the foil on my fingertips... I think she was avoiding messing up her own manicure. I didn't feel taken care of. I'll be looking for a place that is a little more customer service oriented and bit more skillful. read more

Oh my goodness! After experiencing almost ALL nail salons in WEST COVINA, POMONA, COVINA, LA PUENTE, and GLENDORA, I have finally found the best nail salon! Although the business looks outdated and lacks decor, the overall experience of the salon was an actual 5 stars! Here are the reasons why: 1) Manicurists and Pedicurist take their precious time doing your nails, thus leaving the outcome to perfection. 2) they actually massage you for a long time and not the measly 20 seconds that everyone else does at other nail salons. 3) the quality of work is awesome and precise. Specifically they triple coat your nails and are not greedy with their polishes. Their nail designs are spectacular! They have an ok variety but if you have a picture of a design in mind, make sure you bring it with you so you can show them. They can copy anything. This review is specifically for NINA! She's awesome and always booked so make sure you call for an appointment in advance! NINA! NINA! NINA!!! I have also provided a photo of the work that NINA done. As you can see, she is great at what she does! 5 stars all the way! Plus they are super affordable... $15 spa pedi and $20 Gel mani. The cheapest in San Gabriel Valley! read more

Let me just say that this place is amazing!!!!! My nail lady who I always go to is NINA! She's seriously the best nail lady I've ever had!!! She's so sweet and nice and does anything you want her too. She's literally a perfectionist. She takes her time and makes sure every nails is PERFECT! You can tell she takes pride in her work. I will never go to anyone else. All the staff is very nice. And the only person who does my pedicure is MAY! She takes her time and make sure your toes are on point. I'm such a perfectionist when it comes to my nails, and I've never had someone do them better than Nina and May. I recommend making an appointment cuz they're always busy!! I love century nails!!! :) read more

So let me start off by saying I came in as a Walk in couple months ago after trying to get fills at the original place I got my nails done at. I walked in and they told me "we are not taking anymore customers" it was only 4pm by whatever . So being that I had 3 lifting nails I was on a mission . I walked in at 430 and Lilly took me right in and fixed me up.! I have being going back ever since .!! She is sooo amazing !!! Regardless of how much I have jacked my nails up in between visits she always has me coming out looking like a fresh set ! TEAM LILLY.!! I advise to call for services they can get super busy for walk in but hey I would wait ‍. read more

Also, their prices are very reasonable compared to their work quality AND compared to other salons. $20 for gel mani !! :) They are all really nice regardless :) I will be back. read more

This is your mom's nail salon, but for the good reasons! Rosy painted walls with mismatched upholstered chairs, big fluffy spa chairs, and relaxing instrumentals playing. In close proximity to west and [east] Covina, there's no wonder Century Nails is a solid four! I came in for a mani/pedi and though the selection of muted neutrals wasn't prevalent, now I know I can get neon pink toes in and for the future. Great pricing and services. The fragrant jasmine oil and hot towels were a great add too. I really enjoyed Century Nails this and every time I've gone, won't be the last. read more

Century Nails - 3 weeks.... Going on 4 and no chip or lifting on both feet and nails (both gel). - Nail Salons Near Me - Covina, California

Came here to get my acrylics from another place off and gel mani and pedi. At first I loved my gel manicure, they did the shape good and they looked great. However, two days after the gel on my thumb chipped and the next day my thumb in my other hand chipped as well. I think they use very cheap product and they do so many coats so it all comes off easily. I called the next day after the first chip and they didn't answer and after looking at other reviews looks like they would have not fix it for free so I didn't even bother going. read more

I've been getting my nails done here for about 6 months and while it's your standard "nail shop," I'm very happy with the quality of the work. Nina does a wonderful job on my gel manicures and Hannah makes sure my pedicures are done just like I like them. I recommend scheduling an appointment because they tend to get busy. If I have a day off during the week, I try to go then because it's quieter and parking is easier. Either way, with or without an appointment, I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

This isn't a fancy place, but it is clean and comfortable. Nina is the BEST! She can recreate any design, and she does it with gel. On average my gel manicures last at least 3 weeks (sometimes 4). I pay anywhere from $20-$25 for my gel manicures (depending on the design). For something that lasts 3+ weeks, it is well worth the price. (I've had several gel manicures in the past at other salons and they have typically lasted only a week.) Nina is a perfectionist, she inspects every nail individually and makes sure they are all perfectly uniform. If you want Nina, you MUST call to make an appointment; she's in high demand! read more

My first time here(and it's like literally around the corner from my house) and I liked it. Pretty busy salon so appt. would be best option, but overall I liked it. The only complaint I have, which is why I only gave 4 start out of the 5 was my nail lady leftward hanging to go talk on the phone while nails were drying! :-( after about 10 mins I was like, "where did she go!?" Not to mention while doing my nails she had to stop and do a quick wax on another customer. Like I said , have an appt. they get pretty busy it seems like? read more
