    After two disappointing experiences here, I am sad to say I will not be returning. My first visit was for a simple gel mani with cat eye + removal of my old gel polish. I booked an appointment in advance expecting to be in and out in a reasonable amount of time. However, my appointment ended up taking over two hours from start to finish. I sat there with my hands in foils for at least an hour while the techs attended to everyone around me. Once Annie saw me, she worked as quickly as possible which I appreciated but unfortunately my experience was already soured by then. I decided to give them another try and came back for gel x removal and builder gel. Unfortunately, they were overly aggressive with the removal and filed my nails paper thin. Now I am dealing with a deep and painful break in my nail (even with builder gel, which is supposed to make your nails stronger). I learned my lesson and will stick to my usual salon as they care more about preserving your nail health.

    I came in for a gel mani and regular pedicure and was helped by Sam for both. She was gentle while prepping my nails and did such a careful job while applying the polish. Truly wonderful service and I appreciate that everyone working there is so nice and bubbly. I'm happy I found them, especially because they are down the street from me

    I love Fancies and LOVE Annie! I've been coming here since they opened and I refuse to go elsewhere. I don't always do designs but decided on one today for my trip to Greece and Annie killed it! My nails always last at least 3 weeks, if not longer, and considering I used to be someone whose nails rarely lasted longer than 2 weeks, I know I'm getting my moneys worth at Fancies.

    Annie kills it every time  obsessed with my birthday nails.

    It's time for an updated review because Annie truly crushes it every single time. The manicures speak for themselves!!! I get so many compliments and the experience itself is always so inviting and relaxing. That's why I keep coming back again again!

    Annie is simply the best. I have been coming to Fancies Nails every 3-4 weeks for over a year now and I love how fast I get a builder gel mani and pedi done. And always to impeccable quality. Annie is a genius when it comes to nail art too - I'll show her a picture and she's able to make it come to life. French nails, ombré nails, chrome nails...perfect every time. I always tell my friends about Fancies Nails because I don't want to gatekeep. Excellent service, clean salon, fair pricing (especially on the West Side) and fast work! Couldn't recommend enough!

    I would never come back here. I called ahead and was told to come in at 4:15 for a manicure. When I walked in, it was immediately obvious they were completely overwhelmed. There were only two people working, they were already in the middle of other services, and multiple clients were waiting. Right before me, another customer was upset because she came in to have a recently done nail fixed and they refused to help her, telling her to come back hours later. I should have walked out. Instead, they still took me even though they clearly did not have the time or staff to properly do my nails. My manicure took literally 8 MINUTES and was the worst manicure I've ever had. The shaping is uneven, the nails are crooked, and the whole thing was rushed and sloppy. If you're overbooked, just say no instead of squeezing people in and sending them out with terrible work. You get what you pay for, and this was not worth it.

    I finally found my new nail place on the West side! My best friend recommend Annie and I am so happy she did. She was incredible and so skilled. I came in with completely hacked nails from a different salon and she fixed everything beautifully. She was super fast yet extremely thorough and gentle. Then I had a pedicure with Kimberly. That was the best pedicure I have ever had. She had immaculate attention to detail and my toes have never looked this good. The owner is so nice. Parking is super easy. I can't wait to return.

    I really didn't want to share my best kept secret in LA. I have gatekeeping Annie far too long! She is an amazing nail tech. Makes my nails look flawless every time and in half the time as anyone else. I always get hard gel and have NEVER had any broken nails or chips. My manicure looks just as beautiful 4 weeks later. I'm positing this review because I need fancies to stay in business forever, especially with the current state of the economy. I don't ever want to go anywhere else. Also, they are such kind people. Annie isn't much for conversation, which is just fine by me. I put on my podcast and in less than 40 minutes she's already done. She's seriously so talented. Hoping this review doesn't backfire and make it even harder for me to book her. Thank you Annie for always making my nails stunning.

    Service is amazing! Everyone is super friendly. Kimberly did my nail prep of soaking and cleaning my cuticles. She did a great job. After, Annie did my nails. Shes so efficient and fast! I was out of there in less than an hour. The nude set is gel + builder gel. The white set is just gel.

    Tons of colors! Great pedicure! My feet are smooth and pretty now!

    This is the BEST nail salon on Santa Monica Avenue! Amazing service and skills! Kimberly always takes care of me. Great priced & chairs! Well behaved dogs welcome.

    Gel X with French tip
    Christine W.

    I got Gel x w/ French tips from Annie and she was incredible! She's extremely attentive to detail and quality and chose the perfect base color. The salon itself is very clean and pretty. Great vibe and the staff is super friendly and kind. Thanks for the great nails :)

    Annie is the best at gel-x nails. I love her. She does such an amazing job everytime and pays great attention to detail. Annie is a true professional and great at what she does. She is gentle and cares for the health of your nails/your happiness as a customer. I've gone to a couple of other salons for gel x where they either rush service, put too much glue, or leave me with with cuts. Where with Annie I am always happy with her work on my nails! I'm so happy I found her! Also everyone in the salon is so nice! Frank at the front desk always makes me laugh and brings so much joy to each appointment. Truly you can't go wrong with Fancies Nails and Annie.

    This review is a little overdue. I found laule'a more than 2 years ago by searching specifically…read morefor a Japanese nail salon. Most gel nail places are way too harsh in your nails, and I was looking for a more non-toxic approach. I am not a fan of the soak off removal approach, as my nails become brittle. I was also looking for a salon that didn't do acrylics because of the smell because I was pregnant then. I am happy to say I am a regular, both Kazumi and Aiko are wonderful. My nails have never been healthier and I often get people commenting on the designs. They are super fast and do such great designs, anything you can think of or if you have examples they are very skilled. Their prices are very reasonable for the west side for the quality you get. There is also a small parking lot that's free, another positive for WLA. The inside is super cute and clean, Kazumi has many cute plants and crystals, you will feel relaxed.

    I honestly really wanted to like this place. Kazumi is truly an artist in her nail designs. That…read morewas why I took a chance and tried her salon before my wedding. The way she works is very zen-like. She keeps her tools very neatly in one place, she is very resourceful, she is very quiet and smooth with her movements. She took extra time to make sure my nail art was good as it can be. The reason why I give 3 stars is because although she is very talented, she lacks in basic nail skills. Initially I was very happy with my white ombré nails but I noticed my cuticles weren't as smooth as they typically would have been if I had gone to my usual spot. I remember noticing that my cuticles weren't cut and Kazumi told me that cutting cuticles would dry them out more. Sadly, as the day went on I was stressing out and the next day I had to get my cuticles fixed right before of my wedding at another salon. The technician actually told me that my nails "looked terrible." I am sure Kazumi gives great work to other clients, but I was disappointed and I don't know if I will come back. My cuticles aren't always in the best shape (I'm a healthcare worker) but I expect at least they would've been cleaned up better considering the $50+ I spent and the fact that my nails were going to be photographed up close for my wedding.

I came in today 1.5 hour earlier than my appointment. Angie greeted me as always, so friendly while navigating a busy room. Professional and efficient. She checked to see if the ladies could take me early and they could. Next I HAVE to give Lisa her flowers. So I have been coming here for YEARS and though I am not picky about who does the pedicure service, I want someone that hears me and is gentle. I have ankle and some joint issues and in the past (not necessarily here), I have had people move my feet and ankles in position that are painful because they feel more comfortable if my feet are in a certain position. Then when I have to move it to be comfortable they get upset with me. What I love about Lisa is she is gentle. If I am uncomfortable she tries her best to work with the fact my foot might be tilted a bit and makes it work. She is detailed and listens to the shape and requests I might have. She is so sweet and I love having her do my nails. I know I dont talk much when I am there but I REALLY appreciate the women who do my nails and the care they take.
