After coming to Joy Nails for several years, today was my LAST visit. I can no longer patronize a business owner who is EXTREMELY rude. Lilly has no customer service skills. I stopped at 10 AM and was told by one of the manicurist to return in 1 hour. I returned at 11 and was told by Lilly that I had to wait a "long time". I asked her how long and she became belligerent. I'm going to miss Tina. Tina was the best. She did a great job and I will miss her smile. read more

Always treat me like a queen, every time I visit. Never had an issue with them hurting me or being pushy with upsells.. These ladies do an excellent job with their nail art as well! Comfy, clean facility! read more

I'm thoroughly impressed with the $30 spa pedicure, with callous remover, paraffin, sea salt scrub, massage, and color. Jenny was so nice and took a full hour+ to repair and beautify my feet. So glad I trusted Yelp and checked out this little place in Whittier. Thanks Jenny!!! read more

Amazing!! It is difficult to find a good nail shop nowadays, and if you are in a need of one, this is your place. They are clean, friendly, modern, and affordable. The list can go on. I have been going here for the past 3 months and I have no complaints. Everyone that has worked on my nails has done a great job. I've recommended people and they've all agreed. Give it a shot, you won't regret it! read more

Been coming here for a couple months now and don't feel comfortable going anywhere else. Mindy and Pham do an excellent job on your nails and the staff is very nice and welcoming. This is an awesome place to get your nails done, considering its location it serves in the area, instead of you traveling more into Whittier. It's clean and intimate compared to other salons that just want more customers coming in and out instead of building a relationship with a customer. My nails always last for weeks, sometimes even months! (Don't like fills) but Mindy does a great job on design, she did an ombré turquoise set on my nails and I loved it!! It was meticulous and Iam very pleased with it! read more

NEVER COMING BACK!!!! Owner is rude to customers!!! I have loved going to this place previously, usually great service, maybe just an off day a time or two but overall great experience. However, yesterday I had an appointment for a full set with gel manicure and pedicure note I specified gel manicure on top of a full set because otherwise they don't do that clean of a job cutting the dead skin and etc. Upon arrival the owner asked me if I wanted full set or gel manicure to which I replied BOTH I repeated I wanted a full set AND a gel manicure and she said and pedicure? And I said yes. Got seated the pedicure person started and my manicurist started. Manicurist was very nice, made small conversation and was very clean and thorough but was not going to acrylics so I said wait I asked for a full set and she said "why didn't you tell me sooner? I don't know how to do full set" she then looks at the owner, the owner comes closer and yells at me in front of everyone "no you said gel manicure!" And I said no I told you wanted both because I needed the cuticles cleaned up and she said when I do full set I clean the dead skin too! You're supposed to say full set and we still clean the dead skin! So I turn to my very nice manicurist- not her fault at all and say it's ok then you go ahead and do gel no full set. To which the owner quickly changes her tune and says no we can do full set it's ok but now you wait! And I said no how long do you expect me to wait? And the manicurist and owner both say no it's fine you won't wait very long at all we can do it for you. So she assigns another worker to do the full set on me and it turns out ok but clearly the owner is bothered at me over this misunderstanding and it shows- very unprofessional. Then I go to pay, the man at the register tells me it's going to be $57 which I have paid before for these exact services and i pull out rewards card now full of stamps for a $10 off so it should be $47 plus he tells me there's a $3 discount for paying cash but the owner quickly walks over and all of a sudden my total is now $66 and I ask why? And she says it's a fee for the clean manicure with the full set. Ridiculous that she said clean cuticles are part of the full set service yet here she is charging me extra just because the manicurist did a through job with my cuticles! But even that I could have let slide but her rude behavior yelling at a customer for HER mistake and then adding fees because she's upset is not ok at all. I've let their off days slip because they are clean and all but not worth this at all I'm sure I will find a better place! During my visit I also heard the owner be rude towards other customers when specifying what they wanted to the point they changed what they wanted because of her. read more

Went is as a walk in this morning . I was literally at the door and glad I did . They took me in and as soon as I sat down it started to get packed ! I got a full set and a pedicure. OMG I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep . Loved my nails and the massage chairs ropes or off . They also pass out water bottle for everyone and I get a discount if u pay cash ! read more

I've passed this nails salon for years and finally decided to give it a try. I didn't have to wait which was great. The ladies who took care of me were friendly. Got gel mani and pedi before giving birth. My gel mani is 3 weeks old and still look great! I'm over due to go back just need to find the time. They have this stamp card where after 9 stamps you get $10 off which is pretty cool. Prices are pretty reasonable for quality work. read more

HORRIBLE experience here! LAZY AND UNPROFESSIONAL. DO NOT take your business here. Spend your money somewhere that treats their customers with respect and actually has a clue about nails. Nails 101: regular polish and gel polish DO NOT go together. I came in with a very simple design (that I picked off of this salon's yelp). The owner did the design on my toes and it looked fine, just like the picture. Then the girl who did my nails, who first of all couldn't even make the shape look half way decent, was in a rush to do the design and did a terrible job on it. Then when she went to do the top coat she smeared the design, had to fix it, and did an even worse job than the first time! So I ask the owner if she could redo the design just on my two fingers, and she does a sloppy job as well when I obviously know she can do better. So I get out to my car and notice that the design on my toes are smeared and the glitter on my nails is already peeling off because the girl used a regular glitter and tried to put gel polish on top, which causes it to stay wet and never dry! When I went back in to ask for a refund the owner and another man that works there started YELLING at me. How UNPROFESSIONAL. She offered to "fix it" again but at that point I had already been there for almost THREE HOURS and they had already "fixed them" three times. She refunded me for my nails but not for my pedicure or the very generous tip that I left (I shouldn't have tipped her at all). read more

It's a typical nail joint, nothing in particularly amazing pretty basic. I wasn't very impressed by the staff and the overall ambiance.

Love this place! I've been to a million nail salons and this one is by far my favorite. The girls are nice and they do a great job! My go to for nails is Nikki, Lilly, and Cecilia. For pedicures Jessica and Cecilia are awesome! And Jenny is amazing at waxing my brows. I won't go anywhere else! read more

First time there and It was super clean and the workers were so welcoming. Teresa did an awesome job with my pedicure and really took her time. Definitely will be back (: read more

Mikey did my nails and he was amazing, the nails came out great besides a few little cuts. But no worries! My cousin got her nails done too, just a simple gel mani and the gel started peeling a week later. Also, the young lady who did her nails rushed her manicure and cut her a few times. read more

Very happy with my gel nail manicure! I walked right in on a Saturday afternoon and waited about 5 minutes before I sat down to get my manicure. The place is very comfortable with free WiFi, compliment water and friendly manicurists. I will definitely be back! read more

This is my new go-to nail salon! They did an excellent job, were super nice and attentive and my nails look FANTASTIC!!!! I love this place and price was super reasonable. read more

I've been to many nail spas but this place is by far my favorite!!!! Kevin is awesome with the gel manicure and Jessica is my go to pedicure savoir lol. She always takes care of my painful ingrown toenails. They've got great customer service, and always greet you with a water bottle. Love it!!! read more

I started coming here because it is so close to my house. However after going to several nail salons in the past , I have realized that this place is a little gem. Not only are they super professional, they are very clean! This is an absolute must for me. As a nurse, I'm aware of the possibility of disease transmission. I greatly appreciate the cleanliness of this place! I appreciate how the staff maintains positivity and how they strive to accommodate you even when they're extremely busy! Definitely 5 stars ! read more

Love this Salon! I get my lash extensions along with my pedis and acrylic nails. The owner Helen also does eyebrow and lip tattoos. I got my lips tattooed and love it. They are always nice and professional read more

I'm very picky when it comes to my nails and I've never had a gel manicure before so I was researching for a new nail place and I'm so glad I found this one. 5 stars for customer service, they're all so nice and welcoming. Free water bottle while getting my nails done which was very nice. I got a gel mani (Cecilia)/ reg pedi (Teresa) and both came out great. The pedi came with a sea salt scrub and awwww I loved it. Great pricing too 39$ all together with a 5$ callus remover. Definitely coming back! My new favorite spot! read more

I wanted to take my sister to get her nails done for her birthday and we had a really great experience. They were really accommodating, my two sisters and I walked in without an appointment and they got us seated pretty quickly and even stayed a later to make sure we got everything we needed. The price was not bad either, they do take credit cards but if you pay cash you do get a discount on your bill. My sister and I are definitely coming back. read more

I absolutely love this place!!! I got my nails done with Mindy she is the sweetest person and does the cleanest nails she is a perfectionist and makes sure more than once you her client is happy with her work, I will definitely be coming back. read more

This is my second time here and my experience has been equally if not better than the first. The entire staff is so friendly and accommodating. I have yet to find such a hospitable nail salon. I had a water bottle waiting for me at my station for crying out loud! They pay attention to detail and make sure to not hurt you as they tend to your cuticles. Love it! I'm definitely coming back! read more

I used to love coming here because they are friendly and attentive but lately it gets very busy any day of the week which is great for them but sucks for customers who don't get quality for what it's paid since they are rushed. I didn't like how they did my nails this last time, very unevenly filed and you can tell their Service is not the same anymore. I even told the girl my daughter needed manicure, she asked what color I said glitter and the lady said no she's too young, pink better. Excuse me? Anyway she never got to her, left her waiting and attended to other girls who got there after. I didn't make a big deal cause I realized it wasn't worth it or my $. I left but won't be coming back especially for $50 for manicure and Pedi. read more

They always do a great job. They also work at a decent speed in which your not going to be there forever but they aren't rushing and are not going to leave your nails looking bad. The gel colors are true to thier color on the samples. I've been to places where I pick a gel color and it comes out different from what the sample pallets had. The place is not too big so it's best to call ahead. But I like how it's not that big because it's not that loud there and less congested. The ladies are very friendly. They pass out cold bottled waters as your getting your services which is a nice touch. I love how they have a small discount if you pay with cash. All in all I keep returning because they do a great job on my nails whether I'm getting a gel manicure/pedicure or regular manicure/pedicure. read more

It was my first time here, and the ladies who did my nails did a great job! They really take care of their customers. I definitely will be back! read more

ok so I've been here a few times now. wanted to get the full experience instead of just writing a review about 1 good time then going back and getting a horrible nail job. They are amazing here! I'm so happy they opened and I hope they don't go anywhere (I've lived in the area long enough to see stores come and go). Mindy did my nails the first time and tony did them this time, I highly recommend either of them to do your nails! I used to go to another nail shop near by and they did my nails horribly to the point where I stopped wearing nails. they were always too think, uneven, thick at the cuticle, looked horribly fake, not to mention the nails themselves wouldn't last more than a week and a half. I had my last set from mindy for 3 weeks and they still looked perfect.. (minus the growth of course). my nails look so natural and the best part is they are even. I'm beyond picky about my nails, I always have to give specifics on what I like and don't like because no one ever does them right. Mindy and Tom do them right!!!! I like to see what people are going to do on there own before I comment and I have never once told them what I liked or didn't like! they did then perfect the first time and every time after! Needless to say I'm right back to getting nails again! I'm going on and on about their nails but the rest of there staff if good too. they have good customer service and don't make you feel like they're making fun of you. they do great pedis and their spa chairs are VERY clean! they also clean them VERY well between customers unlike most nail places!! You must try this place!! read more
