Kathy is the best! She will clean your nails thoroughly and you'll feel 10lbs lighter every time. She is very nice and kind. I've been going here for almost a decade now. Their salon is super clean. All the employees there are friendly and good they are all good! I highly recommend this place! read more

Ken or Kien . Was who did my pedicure. She's the very load one. With glasses. I've been coming here for sometime now. Always thought it was a nice place. The gal that usually does my nails was busy so I got an older lady. She takes her time and does them straight and perfect. $55 med length, gel! Now this last time I was charged $50 for a pedicure And she cut off my nails without asking... so now I have puggy toe nails. Yuk!! I asked Why so much she said 35 for the gel and pedicure. And $5 for the scrub and $10 for removal . I didn't get a scrub or have my feet done with a callus remover. So where did the extra charge come from. I wanted to tell her not to be over charging and be honest with people. But obviously she needs the money more than I do. It's unfortunate because I really like the lady that did my nails. read more

Noticed this little nail salon on a visit to Wok's Deli. I have been going to a salon in Bellflower but they are always so busy i feel rushed so I thought I would give this place a try. It is super close to my house, added bonus! We arrived a few minutes after they opened. There was already one client in a pedicure chair and one in a manicure station. We were greeted immediately and sat within moments to nice clean, well maintain chair with all the bells and whistles. The Service menu was easy to read, very reasonably priced options and they had a lot of variations of gel colors. i was really surprised when my nail tech asked me how I liked my toe nail length. She wanted approval every step of the way before she went on to the next. It was really interactive and I appreciated the attention to what my expectations were. They also have a rewards program. I will definitely be back and tell my friends lol. This a little hidden gem in Norwalk. read more

Im updating my review from 2 years ago. 2019 My regular nails salon is full today and it is my only day off, i remember about this place so I decided to come for my regular nails treatment. I asked for different colors for each toes and they replied it will be extra $3 and i was inquiring the reason why since it wasn't like that in my regular nails salon. And she replied it will extra work to get 5 different bottles and extra work (in opening and closing each bottle i assume?). She then turned to another lady, speaks in their language and that other lady came and explained that in other place it wil be charged $5 instead of $3. To make it even more uncomfortable experience, other customers that came after me got offered free bottle water, (2 yrs ago they also gave me bottle of water and a small plate of snacks, which made this salon unique and made me felt special). I understand for the cost of inflation so that was okay when they cut down complimentary service, but it was not cool differentiate each customer with special or non special treatment. --------------- 2017 My bro in law who owns an upscale nail salon in Iowa, came to California to purchase chair for his second nail salon. He insisted on products thats called Contigo, using individual liner for pedicure. I kept thinking to myself why I never find such salon that uphold concepts of health, hygiene and beauty? And I bumped into Kati nail salon from yelp. I tried it out this morning. Arrived at 930AM, its only me and another customer. Its the cleanest nails salon Ive ever been to! And they use liner for each customer, and dispose of it after. Very efficient and fast too! They make sure edges of my nails are smooth afterwards. They gave u water bottle and snacks complimentary. $1 charge for credit card transaction. $40 for gel mani and regular pedi. I saw other yelper post pic they handed out the pumice stone afterwards, which I didnt get. Its not like I want it, but its nice knowing they use one for each client to reduce spread of infection. (In which my in law uses it as standard of practice). I did saw a jar of pumice stone and labeled "clean" so I hope they use one for each client. And my tools were opened from a sterile package. Thumbs up! Will definitely back for more! read more

Came in around 9:15 on a Thursday morning and were happy they were open. The spot is located on the corner of a mini business plaza. Across from apartments, there is parking on the street and behind the building. Mindy was amazing, I appreciated her work. I got the $35 package with Valois removal and foot massage. Definitely worth it she did a great job. She didn't half ass anything the massage was great and she took her time. This is probably the best callis removal I've had and that is saying something. Greatly appreciated her. read more

I usually have had pretty decent experiences here.... But after today, I will not be returning to this establishment. I went in with acrylics wanting a fill because I broke a nail, I had a specific idea in mind with pictures and I did not get what I wanted... Not even close... the man told me that he would be able to do a pink glitter French tip and that it would look really nice... that is NOT what I got. The man who did my nails did not even bother to clean up my cuticles and cut my finger in the process. I did pay for my visit. But I will not be returning. I will post a picture of what I originally wanted and what I walked out with. read more

If you look at the newest reviews made in the last 6 months you'll see 4(27%) 4/5 star ratings and 11(73%) 1 star ratings. Definitely says something about their business. I've been coming here for a few years and unfortunately have been sorely disappointed this past visit. I previously had not left a review since I always had someone different and their services varied considerably in quality. The previous visit was done by, who I assume is, their youngest employee. She gave an absolutely BUTCHERED pedicure with a chainsaw! Well, that's what it looked like anyway. The edges were jagged and sharp and there was still cuticle skin all over the place. It looked like an animal's bite did the pedicure. She's also given me a terrible manicure another visit. I called the following day when I noticed and the owner said to come back but I had already fixed it so she said not to worry, she'd take care of me the next time I went back. Today was the day I went back roughly a month later. When I called to make an appointment I reminded her of the situation and she said to come in and she'd take cafe of me, I then went in and reminded her again before the service started and she said she would take care of it, yet again. Once the service was all said and done I paid and left but realized I paid for the pedicure portion that she said she would take care of so I went back and told her that she said she was going to take care of it 3 separate times. She then said what she meant by taking care of it was that she herself, the owner, would do the pedicure personally herself. I can see how there was a misunderstanding but she never once made that clear to me that she still expected payment for that particular service. I paid for the other services I got, no problem, but I guess I shouldn't have assumed that the pedicure she said she would take care of was complimentary. I'm not sure if I understand that differently than anywhere else I've ever been or the way anyone else has ever heard that term before but that's not what I thought it meant. I told her even if she were to expect me to pay for today's service, she should have refunded me for the previous one or however she wanted to do it so that I was compensated fairly for a job that shouldn't have been paid for. I told her that I understood her miscommunication but that this wasn't proper customer service especially when I never got an apology at any point. She then went on to just ignore me and give me no response after that. I kept talking to her and she just didn't look at me anymore. To top everything off, the last time I came I realized she only gave me one stamp(they have a stamp card that's a free mani after 10) for my two services. I've always come with someone else and the stamps have always been put on the one card for me to keep. I have fulfilled three other cards(totalling 15 times) and was almost done with this one. She then went on to say that it was from a prior visit and this particular time she would allow the two stamps for the card this time but not in the future because every single person has to be separate and that has always been the rule. So you're telling me the last 18 times I came that wasn't always the rule? Especially when you've signed off my stamp cards numerous times? Interesting sudden rule. Unfortunately this review has to go to her business. She has a lot of employees and this doesn't necessarily go across to everyone but the owner is the one that represents the team so sorry, not sorry. read more

Kati, I asked for the owner and you said you didn't know who that was? I asked for the owners email you said you couldn't give it. && from the looks of it on here the owner maybe you! LOL WOW (What I'm I missing here) You said it wasn't fair for you to clean up my cuticles that weren't cleaned up by Uyen. That you were already doing enough by reapplying gel polish that peeled in 2 days after getting them. (Showed her date stamp of picture since she didn't believe me) To come back && see Uyen. Like I have all the time in the world ( I went in wed of last week by Friday my nails looked like crap, called Saturday they said to go in whenever to get it fixed, finally had time to take care of it today ) Another customer came in with the same issue as I was waiting (her gel polish was peeling) (I left before she finished, I don't mind paying someone else for a good gel mani) Money ain't a thing honey! Like I told you Kati from one buisness owner to another one, don't have a buisness if your going to do a crappy job on running one. I'm disappointed on how much your business has changed cutting costs on quality is NEVER advised (which is apparent by gel peeling 2 days after!) If you ever need any consulting on how to be professional, be empathetic, own up to your buisness, please let me know. You'll be surprised how much you can gain. && Since you claimed to not understand me I know translators who can translate in Viet, Canto & Mandarin shall you speak any of those. Wish you the best! ***Gina was amazing by the way!*** Go ask for Gina she did my pedicure & was very pleasant to talk to! read more

So disappointed! I went about a week ago to get a gel manicure and regular pedicure just to realize how expensive they got. I understand COVID has to do with this but the way they put up the prices by a lot is not good. My daughter that is only 11 got gel manicure and her toes painted and for both I paid $100. Never In my life I had paid that much not even when I got Married. I was so upset when they were speaking they're language after they started services and told me she would be regular price so $40 for her and $60 for me. I wanted to walk out but they already had started services on both of us. I will not be back. I'm sure they will loose customers. read more

I've came to this place twice. The first time was with my daughter we both for manicure and pedicures. All the ladies were very friendly. We both got snacks and I got a water and my daughter was given a capri sun. Great experience! This second visit I got a full set with ombre coffin.($35) Price wise they are a bit more pricey but I'm willing to pay more if the job is done correctly. The nail technician did an amazing job! I will be back again. This time the ladies weren't as friendly, maybe they just had a rough morning. read more

Very Dishonest and disrespectful. I just went there with my daughters. They wanted to charge me for a pedicure $25.00 for my 10 YEAR OLD daughter who is tall for her age. I told them she is 10 years old it should be $15.00 they said her height is to tall for her age. Then she tried to BS ME and say since she's 10 its 9 and under So they wanted to charge me $20. I had to talk to another lady who said the same thing. I told the lady her dad is 6'5. She is tall lil girl.. They just lost a customer I will never go back again and I'm letting others Know they are Rude, Not professional and very Disappointed!!! read more

This was my spot! I love how Mai did my nails. I recommended both of my sisters and when I moved I drove 30 min to get my fills here. There is a lot unprofessionalism I feel she lacks. I went to get a fill and the first thing she mentioned was that I had forgot to tip her since I normally send it after I leave through Apple Pay. It was an honest mistake, I always tip her $6 for my $23 fill which I feel is fair. But just the fact that she asked and seemed annoyed threw me off. I decided to ignore it and apologized to her. I then made my appt and went back to get my fill two weeks after that and Mai text me as I pulled in that she was running 30 min late. I had drove from 30 min away and set an appt. I then decided I'd still just keep my pedicure appt and hope she would finish faster. As soon as I walked in her and her client looked at me and laughed and the client said "she forgot she had an appt and took me" LAUGHING. And Mai laughed too and said she'd get to me in 30 min. I don't see how that was funny. And she had never been this way with me until the whole tip thing happened. Her coworker said she was available and I let her do my nails. I decided to just move on and ignore it because I thought well maybe she didn't have bad intentions and really just forgot about my appt. I text her on Monday and it is now Sunday and she read my text message and never responded. read more

First time here and was not to happy with the service, specially when they cut open your nail and they don't even give you a discount, she told me 35.00 and at the end it was 45.00 I don't mine paying to get my nails done but she was a bit in the rough side removing my previous nail that just needed a fill, never told me she was removing my old set!!! read more

I've been coming here for over three years with my girlfriend. Never really had any major complaints until the last time and this time. When I was here the last time, one of the girls slaughtered my toes and feet. I didn't notice nor paid attention till I got home. I'm a guy so normally I try not to be too picky but this was ridiculous. Every single one of my toes had uneven and spiky ridges, I even had cuticle skin poking out everywhere. It was definitely way worse after going in than before. Got a chance to speak to the owner and she said to come back in but I had already fixed it myself so she told me the next time I came in that she would take care of me. I finally made the trek back about a month later. My girlfriend called to remind her about the situation before we went in and was told that she would take care of it. When we got in I heard my girlfriend remind her AGAIN & it seemed like there was an understanding. The owner was the one to perform the service on me as well. We ended up paying for our services and then left but then my girlfriend realized that we still ended up paying for my portion of the pedicure. We went back and were pretty much told that the owner had a miscommunication when she said she would take care of it, all she meant was that she would be the one to be performing the service. Albeit, she took extra time and care and the work was just fine but that's not what taking care of it means right? The owner just went to ignoring us in the end. RUDE. Had we known we wouldn't have gone back from the previous time, makes no sense. No refund, no partial refund, no credit, no apology. Oh well, learned our lesson. read more

My wife and I have been coming here for about a year girls are great very friendly I have my favorite my also has her favorite. Today we walk in for our usual well it was pretty hot outside so I'm thinking get to relax and the AC but no owner was running fans instead so me being I spoke about that it was to hot can't really relax she said AC was on , as we walked out I noticed the AC was set at 82 come on read more

Okay.... so.... 1. You give my nail an ugly shape... I let it slide. 2. I get home and my nail is already chipping.... ITS GEL., It shouldn't be! 3. I go back to your salon and NICELY ASK YOU TO FIX MY NAIL and you have me sit and wait. I am waiting and I see that one of you rude employees look at me and laugh and look at the other employees to see if their laughing with you. I patiently waited for about 30 MINUTES until I can't anymore. So I finally speak up and ask you to fix my nail which LITERALLY took 2 minutes. I feel offended and it's like you wanted me to give you a bad review! Honestly, I was so hopeful that this was going to be my go to place. I really liked my first visit and one on one with the owner, Kati or whatever but she didn't handle the situation well at all. & I'm sure she told the other workers to make me wait and that's when she lost my respect. You lost my business. I could've been a regular ever 2 weeks but I'll take it somewhere else. Never will I come back. I feel disrespected and wish I would've never gone there to begin with. read more

First of all let me say this salon is very nice and clean. Everyone there is very professional and nice. I specifically see Mai and have been seeing her for 8 years she is a hard worker and makes sure she does a good job.

I highly recommend this salon and Mai she is my go to person and will remain to be. I have followed her here to this salon and I can definitely say this salon is much nicer than the last which I won't mention. Great atmosphere always relaxing and has cold water and snacks for me every time. Thank you Mai for always treating my like a celebrity and doing such a great job I'm always get compliments about my nails.

This nail salon is the best and most cleanest-professional salon that I've ever been to. Kathy has been doing my nails and she does a great job. She's always, precise about how she does nails. The nail salon provides pedicure bowl covers which prevents bacteria sharing from client to client. They also provide water and snacks while being pampered. I love it here partly because Kathy is so sweet and also because they offer a stamp card. I highly recommend! Ask for their jelly pedicure, so soothing and feels great on your feet. Also Love it here because they provide snacks and drinks while getting nails done. read more

This place has bad service. Brought my daughter in and they tried to over price me on her nails. When I asked why they were charging me extra, the lady replied that she did not believe that my daughter is only 8. Anyone can see and tell for them selves that my daughter is just a kid. Anyway the lady gave me attitude and didn't even bother to let my daughter dry her nails. Do not come to this place! read more

Fabulous Nail shop I discovered on my travels when I accidentally broke a nail. Passing through from one town to the other, I was looking for a shop with a good reputation and found Kati's (via Yelp, of course)!! My nail is broke towards the middle and I have been wearing a bandaid for two days. Kati was going to fix it correctly, removing the old shellac and Re-do the entire nail yet I asked her to please just apply acrylic to the top. She not only applied the acrylic, she color matched the paint! Accommodating my rush, she did a fabulous job! I will make this my Southern California stop for Nails! read more

I used to love coming here but then I noticed that the owner started coming up with their own prices. I would get charge between $45-$53 for both my full gel set and gel manicure but then last time I went I got charged $64 and the funny thing was that it's always the same length and simple color that I get. So I stopped coming here. read more

went to get a full set and the lady was so rude from the start and was rushing and didn't even properly file my nail but only half of it where she applied the tip for my acrylics.

It wasn't my first time here but it was my first time getting a full set. I'm guessing the girl that did my nails was new and maybe didn't even have her license to do nails. She kept getting schooled by maybe the owner on how to apply the nails. The nail tips were already coming off as they were trying to cure. FYI MY NAILS came out like crap. We have all been there ladies, we don't say anything about the awful work they did on us or try to fight it so we just end up leaving AND NEVER COMING BACK. read more

I just went to get my nails done and Gina did my layover instead of a full set. I have carpal tunnel and my fingers are slightly turned. When I mentioned it to her so she knew why my hands are stiff and she'd have to compare both hands to make sure they are even. Her response was "well then you know I can't make them perfect" as if that was the point. Then I get home and my gel polish chipped off the side because it was bulging out and it hasn't even been an hour since I did them. I paid $70 for both services acrylic lay over and pedicure. I got the deluxe pedicure in which I didn't even get a 10 minute massage as it clearly stated. All the other customers were offered chips and water. I got the water offered by the lady doing my pedicure once she noticed I wasn't very happy with my nail work. Paid a good amount of $ just to get bad service. First time customer and I'm never coming back or recommending it to anyone I know. read more

If you are allergic to mosquitoes then I would avoid this place. The only reason I come to this salon is because I really like my pedicure lady but I always leave with bites on my legs. There are so many plants & vines that have grown around the whole salon. The workers have bought bug zappers to help kill the flying bugs. It's ridiculous! Also, I would go early because the owner won't turn the air on so they just have fans. read more
