I've been looking for a good manicure/pedicure place for a while. I found Kristi J while researching where to go as my last place was ok but didn't love it. It's such a pretty hideaway. The place is clean, Victoria is so kind and both mani and pedi look impeccable. I am so happy I found them and I'll be coming back each time. read more

I always say it took me only 10 years to find Viorica -- the best manicurist ever! For the past few months, I've consistently chosen her to do my nails, and every time she proves why. You can truly tell that she loves what she does, and your nails will show it. She works with great precision and is incredibly careful and thorough from start to finish. Thank you, Viorica! Please be available for me next time too -- there's truly no one else like you! read more

I've come here only 4 times the past year since I get a manicure only on special occasions, not regularly. Each time the quality has been top notch. The vibe is chill, comfortable, lux. There's an espresso machine! I've gone to three different artists and each has professionally delivered perfect manicures and pedicures that are strong and beautiful. The quality reflects the fastidious training of the artists and each one really takes pride in their work. Highly recommend. read more

Kristi J Nail Studio - French manicure by Viorica - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A few months ago I decided to try a Russian manicure with Kristi J. I got a very high-quality, beautiful manicure. The price was a bit high, though. It was a bit more expensive than a regular spa manicure, but after that I visited other salons that were a little cheaper and was not satisfied with their quality. Kristi J was the best Russian manicure I've ever had. I'll definitely be back soon and will be their regular customer. Thank you for being there. I couldn't find you for a long time. read more

Consistent in good service & pretty work! Quite n peaceful enough to read a book or take a nap lol

Viorica is the best. My nails grow out so nice and last about 4 weeks. I've gotten so many compliments on this milky French! read more

I have never written a bad review before, but I felt like I needed to warn others after this experience. i ended up with a severe infection after getting a pedicure here that spread up my leg and required medical treatment. When I called to cancel my next appointment and mentioned the infection, the owner immediately became defensive before I even blamed anyone. my doctor later confirmed it was caused by the salon. Extremely unprofessional experience and I will never return. EDIT: Updating this review with proof since the owner falsely claimed I was "never a customer" and accused me of being a fake review. I have attached photos of the medication I was prescribed and documentation showing I required medical treatment for an infection after my pedicure. What's especially concerning is that the owner privately contacted and harassed me after I left my review, so the owner clearly knew I was a real client while publicly pretending otherwise. I stand by my experience completely. EDIT 2: To clarify several false statements being made in this response, First, the owner is confusing my mother with me. My mother called on my behalf because I am a minor, and at no point did we say this was a sore throat or an ingrown nail issue. The reason for cancellation was the infection I developed after my previous pedicure from this salon. Also, it was never stated with certainty during the phone call that the salon was not responsible, because at that time I was still seeking medical evaluation and did not yet know the exact cause. After being examined, my doctor later confirmed the infection was caused by your salon. The claim that I used "3 different names" for appointments is also misleading. I created my own account for my appointment because another family member already had a separate account with the salon. I did not create fake accounts, nor did I pretend to be different people. It is also false to claim that this review was written simply because I was upset over a cancellation fee. I shared my experience because I developed a serious infection after my pedicure that ultimately required medical treatment. I did not fabricate medical records, and publicly accusing me of lying while simultaneously threatening legal action is highly inappropriate and unprofessional behavior from a business owner. read more

I've been going to Diana K for four years now and I always have the best experience with her. Never in all this time I left not liking my nails. Diana is the only tech I trust. She will look you in the eye and tell you honestly if your nails are in bad shape, and she will not make things worse just to please you in the moment. She fixes the problem first, then gets to the fun part. That kind of honesty is rare and very valuable in my eyes. People often overlook how many real health risks come with nail services, which is exactly why finding a technician who is honest, knowledgeable, and clean is so important. The quality of her work speaks for itself (see my photos). Her attention to detail is impeccable: cuticles are always seamless, polish goes on thin and flawless, and the finish is consistently perfect. In over a hundred visits, I have never once had a problem. Also it's worth noting that after Diana I can go for up to a month without any problems. I've sent countless friends to her, and she is liked by every one of them. As for Kristi J Nail Studio itself, I came for Diana, but I can say the studio is a great environment. It's spacious, spotless, and beautifully maintained, with a wide variety of colors, complimentary beverages, and a modern scheduling system. All the other nail techs are very welcoming and the atmosphere in the salon is always pleasant to be in. I really love this place and Diana and hope my review will make you consider checking them out. read more

She really pays attention to detail which I really appreciate I always leave feeling pampered. read more

So I don't think there are reviews of Anna yet, and I wanted to say she is amazing! She did my gel manicure this evening, and my nails have never looked better. I am really picky and often just do my own nails, but my cousin convinced me to try gel and I will be going back to Anna for sure! She is also very nice and patient; she took her time to make each finger perfect. The place is in an office building, which was a little weird, so I'm mentioning it. But it's a legit nail place and worth every penny. Thanks Anna!!! read more

This is the most amazing Mani Pedi I've ever had. Especially my French manicure. She was incredibly detailed and cleaned up my cuticles and nail beds so I know this will last a long time. The base color perfectly matches my nails. I had her do an unusual shape that I prefer for my nails and she was very careful to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. The pedicure was very quick by comparison and I'm very happy with it as well. The salon was clean, quiet and modern. Worth the price! read more

I've tried so many nail salons over the years and none of them even come CLOSED to the quality here. I've been coming here for over a year now and every single manicure has been flawless. The work is clean, the tools are sanitized and unlike traditional salons they use new tools on you every single time. I've been seeing Alona for all of my manicures and she kills it every time. Every inspo picture I show her comes out EXACTLY how it is in the picture. The manicures are a bit spendy, but they last so long that I would rather pay more for a manicure I know will last. I recommend them to everyone I know honestly. read more

UPDATE: it turns out when I originally got my nails done, there was a bad batch but they contacted me & fixed it immediately!

As a result I will definitely return! See updated pics below! (Would give 5 stars, but had to take away one for needing the fix in the first place) otherwise 10/10 read more

I just left the salon and immediately got on Yelp to write a 5 star review. I had an absolutely amazing experience with Helen and I'm so so happy with the way my pedicure turned out. Not only was Helen lovely but she's truly amazing at what she does, I couldn't be happier. So excited to come back. 10/10 experience and perfect nails. Thank you! read more

I went here just over a week ago, and I asked for hard gel on top of my real nails. I was assured this was no problem. When I watched her starting to put the fake nail on, which is essentially gel X, I asked, wait I want my real nails, and they assured me that they would be keeping them. A few minutes later, I'm watching her drill off my nails to where I have nothing now. I also asked for them shorter and they are so long. This was probably the most expensive nail salon I have ever been to. I paid $150, and while they look nice, I'm already so over them because they are so long. One week later. read more

Victoria is a professional in her field. I've been going to her for a long time and I'm not going to change my master. She does everything very professionally and carefully. Quick and clean manicure without damage. I've never had chipping, peeling or anything else, or any problems with manicures and pedicures. I love her! Among other things, she is also a wonderful person and conversationalist. Our procedures are always as comfortable as possible. I recommend everyone to make an appointment with Master Victoria, she is a professional in her field! read more

I've been going to Kristi J Nail Studio for a year now and honestly, they're the best. I had never been able to grow and keep long nails naturally, but with their gel manicures, mine now last up to 5 weeks -- no lifting, no chipping, they just stay beautiful until it's time to change the color. My pedicures last just as long too! The salon has such a calm, clean, and professional vibe, and every single technician is amazing at what they do. I go to Katia, and she's incredible for fragile or previously broken nails -- super gentle and precise. Kristi, the owner, really sets the standard for quality and professionalism. They use Russian manicure and pedicure techniques, which are by far the cleanest and most detailed I've ever had. Their prices are totally worth it -- since their work lasts, I end up going once a month instead of every 2-3 weeks like other places. If you want your nails to actually last, look beautiful, and grow healthy, this is the place. Highly recommend! read more
