    Cat eye
    Samantha L.

    The 2 ladies that did my nails were quick & did a great job! I love my cat eye nails. I will most definitely come back! This was my 3rd time coming back here but it's been a while since due to Covid. Thank you two the two ladies that helped me today

    6 days post gel manicure
    AD S.

    My nails turned black! The gel polish on my nail turned black after only a few days. I was shocked and thought maybe I touched something that rubbed off on my nails. No. It has steadily increased in intensity and size. I'm telling people its a new Parisian ombre look. That sounds better than, I was being cheap and got what I paid for.

    Nancy did a great job doing my gel manicure! She took her time doing the half moon design I asked for (she said it was her first time doing this) and I was very pleased with the results. I'll definitely be going back to her!

    This place is extremely overpriced. I paid $30 for these and it wasn't even gel...it was regular nail polish. It took the lady 2hrs to do my nails which I don't understand why.

    I was very upset with Monica , I showed her a picture of what I wanted ... it was a the marble look .. it was terrible so I had her do the French and that was worst .

    Monica did my nails beautifully. Its professional and the customer service is great. I definitely recommend going here. I'm in love with my nails.

    Thank you

    Great job ! Very detailed she takes her time . Haven't find a good nail technicians for long time . Def will be back even tho I don't live around

    Lady from table Number 2 she always do whatever she want not what I ask for ,    this are my results for refill and gel color

    If there's it's a option for - I will do it customer service sucks it's not the first time that they do something like that to me I was there waiting until they opened to get my nails and pedi they started with my pedi and I was waiting for monica to do my nails but she couldn't because she was busy and I understand that but the other lady refused to do my nails because she doesn't feel comfortable to do it wtf it's that service if they don't know how to attend a customer and do their job why are they there fuck this place and their customer services plus the only one how can work good it's monica and she charge a lil bit expensive or whatever she feels charging you ......... I'm really mad but I know for shure this was the last time

    My new claws, so cute
    Erika M.

    First time here and I thought it was packed but I was seated right away! She worked on me fast and efficiently. Listened to what I had to say and my nails came out super cute! I unfortunately didn't get her name but she was nice. Coming back here from now on!

    I made an appointment over the phone for Gel-X removal and a new Gel-X set. At no point was I asked…read morewhether I wanted nail art/designs, which I didn't think would be an issue at a nail salon. When I arrived, I had to explain the design I wanted to three different people. Two of them weren't even my nail tech-- they were explaining the design to her for me, which honestly should've been a red flag from the beginning. I showed an inspiration photo for a design they initially said they could do, but pretty early on it became obvious that the nail tech assigned to me wasn't capable of recreating it. I ended up switching to a different, simpler design and showed her another inspo photo instead. While she was doing the chrome, I noticed immediately that it looked completely different from the inspiration picture. The chrome was extremely shiny and glittery compared to the softer finish in the reference photo. I asked her multiple times about it, and each time she brushed it off and said she would put something on top later to tone it down. I kept trying to trust the process, but it became harder and harder. The entire time, the other worker-- who later ended up taking over my nails-- was sitting right next to us and had clearly overheard me repeatedly questioning the design, especially the chrome, and pointing out that it looked much more shimmery than the inspo photo. Despite that, he never stepped in or checked on the situation until I directly asked him myself. Things got worse when she started the 3D flowers on my last two nails. The first flower already looked noticeably different from the inspo, so I had to keep correcting it. Then she showed me the "finished" flower on the other hand, and not only did it look nothing like the inspiration picture, it didn't even match the flower on the first hand. At this point, I had already been sitting there for around 2.5 hours with nails I was extremely unhappy with. I eventually asked the more experienced worker -- who had been helping explain the design earlier -- to take a look. He immediately agreed that the chrome looked wrong. He ended up taking over my appointment entirely and had to redo EVERY SINGLE NAIL by drilling off some of the previous work. He redid all of the chrome, 3D art, and even parts of the French tips because the original work was that poorly done. The appointment ended up taking 3.5 hours total, which is much longer than any Gel-X appointment I've ever had, especially considering most of the time was spent fixing mistakes. What disappointed me most was that after all of this, there was no apology, acknowledgment, or attempt to make the situation right. The only thing I was told was that I should mention ahead of time if I want designs because "not everyone at the salon can do designs." That response confused me because: 1. I did explain I wanted a design as soon as I arrived. 2. If certain techs can't do nail art, appointments should be assigned appropriately from the start. I honestly wasn't planning on leaving a bad review- I still tipped despite everything lol-- but it's now been only 5 days since my appointment and one of the charms has already fallen off. On top of that, the gold charms have already tarnished, which has never happened to me before at any other salon. You can also see in the photos that my cuticles were over-filed/over-cleaned to the point that they look irritated, and there's visible excess gel on the sides of several nails. Overall, this was a very frustrating experience, especially for the amount of time and money spent.

I've had appointments with just about every nail tech here, and every single one has been incredibly talented, hardworking, and attentive. They always listen to what I want while also offering helpful suggestions when I'm unsure. What really keeps me coming back is the retention on my Gel-X nails. No other salon has come close. My sets regularly last 5+ weeks, and the longest I've pushed them was 6 weeks because I couldn't get an appointment sooner. Not a single nail popped off! That alone speaks volumes about the quality of their work. The team is always so sweet and welcoming, and the salon itself is cute, clean, and comfortable. I also love whatever they have playing on the TV,it definitely helps pass the time when I'm getting more detailed nail art done . They're booked out for a reason! I almost want to gatekeep this place because it's that good, but they truly deserve all the love and support. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality nails that actually last.

    First thing.. if you can avoid this place, do it. There are plenty of places in West Covina/Covina…read moreyou can go to. 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.

    I don't like leaving negative reviews, but unfortunately I was very disappointed with my…read moreexperience. I came in for a fill and a simple French tip. My nails were previously done elsewhere, but they were already almond-shaped and I wanted to maintain that shape. During the filing process, the technician filed very aggressively and actually cut two of my fingers. Despite explaining the shape I wanted, I never got the result I was asking for. The French tips were the biggest disappointment. They looked uneven and already appeared days old despite being freshly done. Throughout the appointment, I respectfully pointed out areas I wanted adjusted, but each correction seemed to make the lines thicker or more uneven. I felt like my feedback wasn't being heard. The appointment took nearly 1 hour and 45 minutes for a very simple design. As the technician became visibly frustrated, I eventually said the nails were fine because I felt that was the best result I was going to get and I just wanted to leave. When I explained that I needed to go, she still turned the drill back on and started reworking a nail instead of respecting my time. I had to leave to pick up my son from basketball practice, and I shouldn't have had to justify that. The entire experience felt uncomfortable and unprofessional. I understand that French tips can be challenging to perfect, but I expected better communication, more attention to detail, and respect for my feedback. Unfortunately, I left unhappy with my nails and wishing I had spent my money elsewhere. I would have preferred a refund so I could have them corrected by another technician.

She didn't listen when I told her not to cut too deep and to be less aggressive. She used a dirty towel to clean the blood off my toe and then apply a lil drop of alcohol and Neosporin way later when she finished painting my toes polish. She didn't even use the plastic wrap to cover the feet for the callous removal. She just applied a lil lotion then rubbed off the callous from my feet very gently. It was an awful pedicure. The manicure wasn't as good either. She barely soaked my finger nails before trimming the cuticles. The water was cold too. I've noticed she didn't even clean her tools after she made my toe bleed then she used the same tools on my fingers. I was so worried I would get more infection. There was a long wait too even with an appointment. NEVER COMING BACK HERE even tho it's only $30 for a manicure and pedicure. The place looks super unsanitary, the seats are old and uncomfortable, and their nail technician doesn't listen to instructions.
