The service was amazing, the staff was extremely kind and i loved my gel x nails. The attention to details and cuticles care was amazing . The prices are also extremely fair. read more

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. read more

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 read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I visited this salon recently and was very disappointed by the cleanliness. They did not use clean products in the traditional blue sterilization bag that comes from the Autoclave, nor was it soaking in the cleaning solution. They used equipment on me from a basket labeled "Soiled". Moving forward, I hope this salon enforces and practices hygienic techniques. read more

I got a pedicure here and even brought my bf. It was one of his first pedicures. He enjoyed it also! The ladies who work here are extremely nice and did a great job. The salon was clean and not crowded. Thank you!! read more

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 entered for an emergency removal as my gel-x was more or less all lifting. I was seated relatively quickly, with little notice. The set up weren't particularly comfortable due to the spacing in between the chair and table, making me slouch, though it would not be a big issue for someone who was of regular height. The quality itself was ok. I got blue hard gel, and they missed multiple corners on my fingers. It started chipping on the third day. They are quick and get the job done, however. It was the most efficient removal and filing by far. In total, it came out to be around 60$ including removal, though the pricing quote was different from the original. It is reasonable, though it could have been more clear up front. Overall it is not a bad spot for nails; especially for anything quick, last-second, and affordable. read more

Excellent service, kind owner. Reasonably priced pedicures and always does a great job and cares about quality.

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 :) read more

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. read more

This review is for the pedicure. I read nice reviews about the pedicure so I was excited to try it out. However, this is probably one of the worst pedicures I've ever experienced. First, they kept pushing for add-ons when I tried to opt in for a basic pedicure, so I gave in. That was a big mistake since it basically felt like a basic pedicure. The massage was only about two minutes and I felt rushed throughout the process. I was disappointed since the massage is definitely my favorite part of a pedicure so that was a bummer. Paint job was super thick and uneven. I also worry about the cleanliness of the place since they used a cheese grater for my heels so that definitely turned me off. Additionally, I saw some ants by the cash register so I hope they get that checked out. Not sure how it is for manicures but definitely think twice about getting pedicures here. read more

Fancies is my favorite nail salon ever ! i'm a stickler about my nails and truly leave with the best mani pedi everytime. Annie and frank are the best. the salon is so clean & everytime I call to make an appointment they are always right on time. My fav nail place ever. read more

This place was a huge disappointment. My sister and I came in for pedicures, and from the start, the staff kept pushing unnecessary add-ons. Even worse, they ended up charging us for services we had specifically declined. My sister chose a pedicure that, according to their flyer, included a 10-minute massage. Partway through, she was told the massage would cost an extra $10. When she questioned it, they claimed she had requested a callus removal instead -- something she never mentioned. By that point, it was clear we weren't happy, and we could see the staff talking about us in front of us, which felt extremely unprofessional. When it came time for my own massage, it was rushed and poorly done. The worst part, though, was how rude and dismissive they were throughout the experience. I would absolutely not recommend this place. Save your time and money and go somewhere that treats customers with respect. read more

Finally, a great salon on the west side of LA! Annie is a really talented and knowledgeable nail technician. She helped me make a plan to rebuild my nails after a nearby salon filed the nail bed down too deep and cut into my skin. I came in with sawed nubs and left an hour later with gorgeous gel-x nails. I have also gotten hard gel manicure here that looked beautiful. On top of getting a great manicure, they are all very kind and accommodating. They will fix your nails for free if anything happens between appointments. They will also try to work around your schedule if you're a returning customer, coming early or staying late when needed. Call in advance - they get busy!! read more

Aw man. This place was Icarus and flew too close to the sun and got burned. Literally. I made an appointment for a new set and came in and they were super crowded. John came over and he seemed so rushed! When he was removing my old set he burned my fingers around 5 times (the sanding tool got so hot!!!) that I yelped in pain and had to pull my hand away several times. He seemed stressed and didn't speak much and went through the motions but was nowhere near as thorough as first time. I'm not sure if the salon was overbooking him or if it was by his request, but going so fast and rushing customers treatments and services is not good for the nail technicians or the customers. The edges of my nails were not as good and I was really disappointed because I thought I had found a special gem of a salon when it was kind of just average. read more

Annie is, by far, the best nail tech I've been to in LA. She works quickly and is meticulous. Her hard gel manis last me longer than anywhere else I've been. She and her husband, Frank, are both incredibly warm and accommodating. And their prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

I called and they were not busy at all for a Sunday afternoon. $30 gel polish change, not manicure. $13 toes regular polish change. I feel like the nail file was super rough and low quality because it frayed my tips of my nails which I didn't like. The woman who did my toes was good after I asked her to change to round the edges otherwise we left it straight which is sharp. They play some mellow music with a Vietnamese YouTube video but overall clean. read more

BEST NAIL SALON in Santa Monica ! I have lived here for 14 years and I have been to them all from Montana ave , to broadway , to wilshire. I finally found a place that properly cuts my cuticles and paints my natural nails close to the cuticles. The nail tech was Detail oriented , super clean, so nice , and offered me a coffee while I waited. They have meters and free street parking on side streets for 2 hours till 6pm. They are open 7 days a week. Very reasonably priced ($45 for regular mani pedi ). They also do gels and dip. So happy I found this place. read more

I made an appointment after I reached out via Yelp to get a quote for a gel mani/pedi, and Frank responded immediately and I was set to go. This was the first and most important sign that they take their business very seriously. To give a bit of background, I've been searching for a nail salon near me that does work I'm satisfied with for years now. I went all the way as far as Woodland Hills to try out salons, and nothing ultimately made me want to return. That is until I found Fancies Nails Spa. I had my appointment today and I'm beyond satisfied - absolute perfection, 10/10! Frank, Annie, and the lady that helped take my gel polish off (my apologies for forgetting her name!) were all so lovely and kind! Annie, for whom I had seen reviews here on Yelp raving about her work, was so precise and I can tell she is a perfectionist - just what I was looking for! I ended up getting a pink French mani with builder gel and a pink gel pedicure to match. I'm beyond impressed and I can't stop looking at my nails! Thank you so much, Fancies Nails Spa team - I will see you soon! read more

I really wanted to like this place because the lady who does gel nails works really fast. I went for a second time because I really liked her work. But this time another lady worked on the prep and she made my original nails super thin to the point my thumb began to hurt. The gel lady started to work on my nails and she took a very short time like usual and did my nails nice. But the part that confused me the most was being charged $60 for gel nails. At the moment I didn't think of it because I had a huge headache and I just wanted to go home. But after I got home I remembered I was only charged $45 the previous time. I called the place and a guy answered and told me he would look into it. He called me back and told me I got hard gel and said yes when the lady asked. This truly shocked me because I don't remember her asking at all or let alone me saying yes because I would remember if I said yes to hard gel. Because I've gotten hard gel before and it takes awhile to do. I proceeded to let him know I never said yes and she was very fast with my nails and hard gel takes awhile to do and all she did was put two coats of something which I thought that was just the coating everyone does before applying gel. He told me he doesn't know and if I wanted I could to her. I didn't want to keep going back and fourth over the phone so I just hung up. I honestly do not understand what happened read more

I'm so happy to have found this wonderful new nail salon in the neighborhood! They just opened up a few months ago and everything is super new and very clean. Metered street parking was easy to find and there is also a small back lot. I was sat down immediately and offered a bottled water upon arrival. The massage chair was such a relaxing experience while I got my mani/pedi. The staff were all very sweet and friendly and made my nails look wonderful! My nails are usually difficult to shape but Annie did an excellent job! Prices are reasonable, service was amazing, and my nails look and feel wonderful! I will definitely be back.
