    builder gel -- yes, these are my natural nails! no extensions!
    Alecsa A.

    I have been going to Kita to get my nails done for almost 2 years. These aren't even all the nail designs she's done for me -- but I hope it's proof of how talented Kita is when it comes to not only design, but durability. Kita introduced me to builder gel, which helps make my manicures last. No more nail breakage or lifting. The photo with the short, pink, square nails is the nail length I first came in with, and you'll see in other photos how long my nails have grown out -- naturally. No extensions. I'm never ever going back to regular manicures. Kita is incredibly talented and passionate about her work. She always takes the time to listen to what I want. The attention to detail is always impeccable - every nail is shaped perfectly, and the polish application is flawless. I am also impressed with the wide selection of colors and designs available; there truly is something for everyone. Beyond the technical skills, Kita is so friendly and personable, making the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. I always leave the salon with the most beautiful set of nails and I'm never shy of receiving compliments on them! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend Kita to anyone looking for top-notch nail services. You won't be disappointed!

    Kita is the absolute best! I've been trying my nails done with her for over 3 years now and she never disappoints. Whether it's a regular gel mani or a special design, she takes her time and pays incredible attention to detail. I HIGHLYYYY recommend going to see her if you're on the westside! A couple of my fave designs :)

    Where do I start, Kita is MY GIRL! I have never had a regular nail artist until I met Kita in 2021. I have moved a few times and I don't care if my commute is longer, I will never trust anyone else like I do Kita!! She has the best selection of colors always buying niche colors to standout from everyone else. Any design I come with she nails it no problem. Not to mention, she is the kindest, funniest and best person to spend time with and chat about life, the ultimate vibe. I get soooo many compliments on my nails ever. single. time!!! Thank you Kita I love you!!

    Kita is amazing and detailed oriented. I won't go to any other nail tech EVER. She hand draws all her art and takes such good care of my nails. My nails are actually this long and protected by the hard gel she uses. If you want healthy nails that look amazing and get people asking WHERE DO YOU GO?! Come see Kita. You'll get sooooo many compliments.

    Kita is extraordinarily talented and I am always amazed at her exceptional skills and attention to detail at every visit. I have been getting my nails done by Kita for over a year now and my nails have never been stronger and healthier. Her touch is super gentle and she takes her time perfecting every nail. Her private studio is bright, comfy and cozy with a wide variety of high quality nail products. I cannot recommend her enough, Kita will make your nail dreams come true!

    This is the best nail salon I've ever been to. I get dip because it's organic, doesn't harm my skin…read morew/ the UV light, and is the only thing that's ever made my nails grow long while lasting 3-5 weeks. Here's the thing, everywhere else I've ever been the technicians have lied to me and used gel on top of the dip or just not known how to do dip well. Every single person who's ever done my nails here has been a true master at the craft. Everyone is also very kind and I've never had trouble with availability or getting an appointment. They have also never, ever hustled me. There are salons nearby that may seem a little more glamorous, but they will nickle and dime you for everything, hustle you, rush you, and do not know their craft. This place does. I've cheated on them once with a local place like that and I hugely regretted it. If you come here, it will be your new spot. I LOVE 18K and I know you will too.

Yesterday was nightmare -- I hate my nails & I even gave them a chance to fix them before I left their business. I just received attitudes, it was insane. i was streaming the whole time as well so whatever, if that's how they want to conduct their business so be it' !!He also said he didn't break my toe nail in half but that's very hard to believe for me because he hurt me and then my toe was broken in half. I was so livid, I gave them so many chances an still tipped. come on santa monica ??

She has incredible attention to detail and always takes her time to make sure everything looks perfect. I'm pretty specific about the vision I have for my nails, and she consistently brings those ideas to life even better than I imagined. Beyond her talent, she's also just really kind and professional, and appointments with her always feel comfortable and relaxing. If you're looking for someone who truly listens, cares about quality, and delivers beautiful work every time, I highly recommend Heidi.

Every time they removed my gel manicure, they seemed to file away not only the gel polish but also the entire base layer underneath. They also aggressively buffed/sanded my nails before applying new gel, supposedly to help the manicure last longer. After finally taking a break from gel, I discovered how much damage had been done. My nails are now paper-thin, extremely weak, and constantly breaking. The top layers of my natural nails have been filed away and are severely damaged. I trusted this salon with the health of my nails, and unfortunately the repeated over-filing and improper removal process left them in the worst condition they've ever been. I would strongly encourage anyone considering regular gel manicures here to pay close attention to how their nails are being prepped and how the gel is removed.

I also didn't receive a proper foot massage, and the foot scrub wasn't fully removed and was left on my feet. The regular polish selection was very limited (around 20 colors that were basically the same shades). On top of that, the polish started chipping in less than two days, which suggests poor application. Overall, this felt rushed and below standard compared to much more affordable salons nearby. I won't be returning. Consider going elsewhere. This place is highly overrated.

The nail technicians at this salon have mastered it! No heat burns from harsh drilling or cuts on the cuticles from misestimating dry skin from live skin. Irena provides a detailed and meticulous cuticle cleaning that lasts a very long time. That is why I love this place. Versus the way my cuticles start growing back like weeds in just 3 days of receiving a typical wet manicure at other places. I've even noticed a significant difference between the dry pedicure and the wet pedicure. The soles of my feet are softer longer. The salon even carries Vegan nail polish from my favorite brand, "The Manicurist" This is my favorite nail salon by far! Irena makes my natural nails look so good and healthy everytime. I love it!
