    Perfect purple for summer
    Mary L.

    This is the friendliest nail salon I've ever been to from booking the appointment to when I left. They were able to see me in a pinch and took me right when I got in. They have so many beautiful colors - I know every salon does, but I felt like this one really nailed the quality. I'm always looking for pastels and I feel like most salons they're either still too bright for my taste or they have too much shimmer. Side note; a homeless man came in and asked for money and the owner straight up pulled a little cash out of the register and gave it to him! It was so nice to see they're genuinely good people. Not only that but I was a little short on my cash, I needed an additional $5 and not to mention tip! But they said it's okay just next time bring it. I've never experienced that before and was so touched the next day I brought it back and tipped them I also brought in some cookies because I found my forever nail salon. You've got a lifelong customer here! It's a mom & pop shop in the best way.

    Waiting for them to dry with their disposable slippers

    Have come here twice and have been taken care of very well. I've only gotten my nails done 2-3 times in my whole life. They were super patient with me I accidentally messed up my fresh nail polish at the store and they fixed it up for me super thankful for that. They even provide some disposable slippers in case you aren't wearing open toe shoes. Would definitely recommend coming here! I've called in to check to see if they had any last minute openings and was able to be accommodated. There's parking in the back. If you can snag the spot that has an orange cone right behind their business, it'll be free parking. Otherwise, you'll pay at the meter. There's also street metered parking in the front of the store that you can finally pay over your phone vs coins only.

    ahhh Gel-X mani (almond mediums) and gel polish #60

    Did a walk-in appointment, as my boyfriend plays at the card shop down the street. Nail appointment was pretty standard, although I do appreciate he checked in when filing and buffing my nails to see if it was hurting (especially with the electric file). I did a super lovely lavendar Gel-X mani. My nails turned out gorgeous and I'll definitely be returning on a regular basis!

    Came here because my usual salon was closed that day and just needed to get them done before I left LA. I found this place and they squeezed me in same day. First of all, the care and quality of my nails has improved so much since I started coming here, no more ring of fire on my nail beds. I usually ask for unique designs and they always deliver! I leave paying a reasonable price, and beautiful healthy nails every time. I've had this set since October and still going strong!! Parking is usually pretty easy in the area. I would totally recommend this place they are the best and they don't charge unrealistic prices like many salons in the surrounding area! They stole me from my previous salon that I was very loyal to, so you know it's good YES YES YES girl just go!

    I got exactly what I asked for! He was gentle and kind when removing my acrylics. I did not feel rushed, and he ensure my nail beds remain undamaged. Five stars!

    This is the first time I've ever written a disappointing review for a nail salon and honestly, my standards for a nail salon aren't that high.. I called in on Wednesday afternoon and they told me $25 for gel so I decided to do walk in. I went in and there was no one there except for two ladies working. They attended me immediately. Color selection is endless! The lady who did my nails was really nice, but she did a poor job. My nails have chipped...about 7 nails are chipped! I've never had a chipped with gel, even my coworker did not believe I got a gel manicure. On top of that my thumb was coated to thick and it doesn't look uniform with the rest of my nails. I guess you do get what you pay for. Can't wait to go back to my usual spot.

    I've been coming at this nail salon for years and every time I get my nails done from them I'm very satisfied. Jeff and Jenny are the best. I'm so in love with my nails!

    Gel X

    My favorite spot in Glendale! They are the best with Gel X and also acrylic nails. Huge selection of colors and always shapes my nails amazing. They care about they're clients and super attentive :)

    TL;DR - reliable manicure at a reasonable price all done by friendly owners! I've been shopping around various nail shops in Glendale and have been swayed away by the high cost of many places. I get it, in LA there's definitely a premium on Instagramable spots. But for me at the end of the day, I just need a simple and clean mani/pedi. I saw City Nails had great reviews and it helped that it was walking distance from my apartment. I called earlier in the day for a 5:30pm appointment and they happily fit me in. When I arrived I was greeted and seated right away. This is not why I gave it four stars, but I will note this shop has a small, humble interior. Nothing super fancy! But like I said - a good mani is what I was in the market for, not an Instagram-worthy background. I got a standard gel mani ($30), and I have no complaints about the polish or process. My only critique is that the full gel mani (with gel removal) took a full hour. I was passed between two nail techs and it just seemed to take a while when there was a personnel change plus some redundant cuticle cleaning. When I get a full mani/pedi, I expect an hour, not for ONLY my fingernails. It wasn't bad per se, but in the future I think I will ask them to do a "quick" manicure. Overall, super competitive pricing with what I've seen around Glendale, and the manicure itself was superb. This will definitely be my new spot!

    Jeff does his job well !!! I am a recent fan of Jeff and definately keep coming back to his services.

    My horrible pedicure

    I came in for a pedicure. Horrendous job. I could have done a way better job. I had my old gel removed. My cuticles were not cleaned, my nails were not cut and filed nicely. I will not return.

    Lots of color selections! Theres more in the other side!!

    I became a regular here until I moved to Orange County. I cant believe I never wrote them a review. They do great on nails. (See pix). Sometimes I avoid male manicurist because I never had a great experience with them but here, the guy (Sorry forgot your name) did my nails perfectly! The prices are very affordable or just right. They do get busy during the afternoon so better come here when they open. You can also make appointments. Most of their customers are regulars and locals and they do build relationships with them.

    I tried this place for the first time since it's walking distance and I was pleased with the prices and the nails that I got done. The color is a little highlighter-ish but that has nothing to do with how the gentleman did. The outcome never really matches the samples lol.

    I just want to come here to recommend Armine who is an incredible beautician/nail expert. She was…read moreso humbly gracious and personable with me and my baby. She made my visit feel welcoming and comfortable Thank you so much for doing my nails. She did such a meticulous job and demonstrated impressive precision and attention to detail. I remember when Amore first opened and being one of the first customers. I still believe this nail salon is by far the cleanest and most skilled in the Montrose area, offering the latest styles and most sophisticated techniques in modern personal grooming. I continue to support this business and only hope for more blessings and prosperity to come. Thank you

    I've been coming back to this nail salon because they do maintain a clean environment, which I…read morereally appreciate. However, the staff's attitude and overall demeanor makes the experience very uncomfortable. The welcome is not warm, and the staff often come across as awkward, unfriendly, and somewhat hostile. Instead of making clients feel comfortable and taken care of, I've found myself being put in awkward positions simply so the staff can be more comfortable in their own seats. It makes the entire appointment feel tense and unpleasant. They're also ALWAYS in a rush for other clients, but I'm clearly a paying client as well!! It's unfortunate because cleanliness is important to me, and that's one of the main reasons I continued returning. But a clean salon isn't enough when the customer experience feels uncomfortable and unwelcoming. I hope the staff can work on their professionalism, communication, and overall approach toward clients.
