I ended up with a toe infection from my latest pedicure here. The only silver lining is that they refunded the pedicure portion of my treatment and an apology. Meanwhile I have a painful infected toe and had to get antibiotics. read more

So hit or miss. I'm happy to pay a premium for a job well done but sometimes I'm so disappointed coming here, I feel like I waste my money. Some manicurists are very talented, but some have been a bummer. I return every couple of years and end up reminded why I stopped going. read more

Kure Spa - Right after mani- so much nail missed, looks grown out two weeks. Messaged management, got read receipt but no response. - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND COSTUMER SERVICE!!! I treated my wife to a gel nail manicure for her birthday 6 days ago ($40 + tips). The day after a few nails started separating. By day 5, 6 nails were detaching...clearly the job was badly done the first time. So she called Kure who told her that they have a " 7-day warranty " so she could come the next day (6 days after) to get it fixed. She did and the result was much better (so clearly the person who did it the first time was bad at their job). Except when she was about to leave they asked her to pay $40! So basically the whole price...the manager there basically told my wife that because it was more than " 1 or 2 nails " she would have to pay for it...so because the first person really did a bad job it's on my wife to pay more?!? Makes no sense. Also the manager argued that people usually come the next day. 1. People don't have 2 hours during their work week to deal with that so she waited Saturday. 2. Don't have a 7-day policy if you are going to argue about it. The whole experience was a disaster. Paid $90 total for her manicure, took her over 4h of her life and most of all was being treated badly by some money greedy business... PS as a reply to the owner comment below. A 7 day policy works within 7 days. Why does it matter if she came after 1 day or 6? Don't have that policy if you are going to argue about it...My wife cut the nail because the gel was peeling off and getting caught on her hairs or clothes. Not the opposite. Again why would she cut her nails right after? Because you did a bad job the gel was peeling and thus she had to cut it! Why didn't you tell her that she would have to pay the full price upfront? Not telling her is very sneaky and misleading. Stop pretending to be sorry about it when you are not. Oh and the color. So if she picked the same color it would have been free? You are making lame excuses for a terrible job done in the first place. You got double the money for one job done well. That's the issue. read more

The receptionist (blonde girl) had an attitude from the get go. I'm one to pride myself in always respecting everyone so I was surprised she already had attitude with me. My right hand went through trauma with Mary when she proceeded to remove my acrylics. I asked for the correct acrylic removal and she tried to convince me that ripping the acrylic was better. Uh no it is not but she begrudgingly took the acrylic off with the proper method. She managed to leave a later of acrylic on my left hand and left the nails in my left hand much longer than my right hand. For luxury salon price, it isn't worth it. Well this is the first time I ever have to do an update. But my right ring finger was in a lot of pain and upon further inspection I noticed that a piece of my actual nail was ripped off along with the acrylic. If a nail tech starts ripping acrylic off, get up and leave. It's not worth being nice or to feel embarrassed. read more

Came here last week for a gel Mani and a regular pedicure. My pedicure was done fine but unfortunately my gel Mani was done horribly. The tech was super sweet but she just didn't know how to do the specific gel design I was asking for. I was greatly disappointed and immediately called and emailed Kure. Not only did they respond to me via email, on the Yelp app but also called me immediately to make sure they could rectify the issue. I appreciate how fast the response was and how understanding they were as well. They let me know I actually had 1 week to make it in so they could fix it and accommodate my date and time. Came in today and was taken care of by Bryan who I could not speak more highly of how amazing of a job he did. Thank you Kure for being professional and fast acting. Love my Gel Mani. read more

Always a great experience. Been coming here for almost a decade. Ask for the Vietnamese coffee if you bet there before 3pm.

They are very accommodating and can always do what you need. Mani and pedi stayed a long time, appreciated that! Also they have a really great kid mani pedi so it's prefect for mommy and me days! read more

My nails turned out decent but today I was treated extremely unprofessional. Before my appointment today, I tried to look up my email confirmation and noticed my receipt from my last visit. I was charged for a massage that I didn't order or receive. I mentioned it to the receptionist, knowing it was too far out and there wasn't really anything to do about it. I was calm, polite and in the end was sorry I even brought it up. Not looking for anything, just wanted to bring it to their attention. I clearly rubbed them the wrong way which became VERY evident from my nail technicians behavior. I paid $15 for acrylic removal - this consisted of Leanne wedging an unused tip under my grown out acrylics and pulling my nails off one by one. I also had a broken/injured nail that I pointed out and I'm honestly surprised I didn't lose half of it in the tug off. Later when the receptionist came around to sweep, my tech pointed out the tips on the ground, whispered a comment to her and they both laughed. At the end of my appointment I asked about the removal process, where I was told they get soaked to help soften them up. Absolutely not the case. When asked about a color half way through my manicure, I had all the samples tossed on my lap, my opposite hand grabbed and worked on across my body, which made it near impossible to pick a color. The appointment felt rushed and I felt as if I was inconveniencing her. I have people that swear by this salon, I've seen amazing designs done here, my nails have turned out well both time, its a wonderful venue, it's just disappointing being treated that way after simply mentioning a mistake. Not demanding a refund or aggressively nagging. read more

WELP! Used to like this place... i experienced awful customer service this week and won't be returning. I got a gel mani last week with Tom. I noticed while he was painting the polish he never painted the top edge of the nail. Too awkward to say anything on the spot, i just hoped for the best. The next day one of my nails' gel was separating from the nail bed and my hair was getting caught in it when i washed my hair. I trimmed off the side of the nail hoping that would fix it. Day 2 another nail, same issue. Day 3 i notice now 6 of the nails have partial separation. By day 5 I'm so fed up with this shotty job i call the nail salon and politely ask if there is something they can do about this, as gel nails are supposed to last more that a couple days! They informed me they have a 7 day warranty to fix any issues and asked if i had availability the next day to come in. When i got there the next day i showed them the nails, three of which i had trimmed on the side because they were so separated and 3 nails with separation (not trimmed) that i had left to show them the issue. They said "what would you like? would you like a full set?" And i said "um sure, i guess if that's what you propose. " and I'm unable to think of any other way to fix the nails without re-doing them completely at this point. I get my nails done, i pick a new color (just in case the previous polish was somehow also to blame) and all was well. Until i checkout and they are ready to ring me up $40 for the full amount. Saying "when we fix nails it's only one or 2" "since you wanted a full set we have to charge you" I'm sorry, what?! It's like going to a restaurant, ordering a meal that is undercooked and the restaurant offering to only replace 10-20% of the dish for you. 6 out of the 10 nails were separating. Why would you only replace 1 or 2? And if that's the case, why not tell me on the phone initially or when i arrived? They argued that they trimmed my cuticles and i picked a new color so it's not "fixing them" it's "a full set" according to their semantics. I'm shocked and basically held hostage at the cash register. I argue and they offer $5 off. The manager admits that ok the front desk woman i i totally spoke with may have not been clear at all with me but that's my problem now. Now I'm out $90 for essentially one manicure and left feeling gaslit and bummed about the whole experience. read more

TRIGGER WARNING for the image but I need to show what happened after my pedicure here. I always had a good experience , had a standing appointment every 3 weeks, but a day after I got a pedicure my toe started hurting really bad & felt extremely warm (even a blanket touching it hurt). The pedicure was 6 weeks ago and I fear I will be dealing with this infected toe for the rest of the year. read more

I have been coming here for years and in the past 6months my paint has started chipping less than 1 week after getting them done. Not sure what's going on but for the amount of $$ they charge I would think they should last longer than 1 week. This used to be my favorite place, now I'm looking for a new nail place read more

Great pedicure and very nice nail techs and environment. They had fluffy chairs and blankets and pillows!

Still loving this place. What a gem. The front desk staff is lovely, it's clean, and Hanna my nail technician is the best I've experienced. Thank you Kure Spa! read more

Please avoid this place. Not only could they not find my gel color due to poor labeling but they did not do a proper job on painting my nails. As I write this my fresh mail job has flaws, would never return. $40 down the drain. read more

AMY AND TIFFANY ARE INCREDIBLE!!!! By far the best customer service I've experienced at a nail spa. I left feeling extremely satisfied with the service. I really want to share the things I appreciated and so others can consider booking with them! * The mani and pedi didn't feel rushed * They both were friendly and made a calm + fun experience * Tiffany offered the callus remover and left it on my feet long enough for it to actually work. Plus she put effort in scrubbing. * I asked for the pedi with a longer massage. It's rare to be asked "is this too hard" - No! It was perfect because Tiffany put effort. I feel like most places offer the extra service then they barely put any pressure. * Normally, I don't bother to ask about colors but I was in the mood for a specific color - They were both kind in helping me with this. Amy went above and beyond to offer mixing colors to find the perfect shade. She also did a great job with the shape. 10/10 experience - I'll be back and booking with them read more

While I wish the decor/vibe was a little more cute and stylish, the staff and their skills are excellent! Very happy with my gel mani and relaxing pedi (do yourself a favor and get the one with the massage) they were fast and kind and did a fantastic job! read more

Never coming here again!!! As soon as you walk in they just give bad vibes !! Judgmental workers here! They don't do what they're asked, they do whatever they please! The job they do isn't worthy at all! They rush to get you in and out! They don't pay attention to what you want! I got cut several times which led to me bleeding which is a BIG NO!!!

UPDATED REVIEW: On December the 22nd, I went into Kure and had a horrible experience. (Review below for reference.) Kure took the matter very seriously and did all that they could to make up for my bad experience. They offered a "redo appointment" and I accepted. My second visit with Kure was 100 times better than the first. Jane was my nail tech and she took great care of me. My nails are incredible and impeccably manicured. I'm receiving tons of compliments! Both Jane and the receptionist checked in with me to make sure that I was satisfied with my visit. Most importantly, I felt like they genuinely cared about my experience. The receptionist sincerely apologized and thanked me for giving them a second chance. I'm so glad I did! Thank you Kure! ---- WTF did I just experience? I am a first time customer at Kure. I normally go to Gloss nails but they were booked. I honestly don't know where to begin. Jesse Ho was the worst nail technician I have ever experienced. I tried having patience with her but she was rude, abusive and dishonest. I arrived and told Jesse that I would like an acrylic fill with regular polish. I chose my color and sat down. She asked me if I wanted gel polish. I kindly declined. She then responded that she cannot do my nails unless I do gel polish. This really confused me because I know that this is not true. I looked to the nail technician to the left of her (because I knew she wasn't being honest) the other nail technician chimed in and said "What are you talking about? Yes, you can." She basically wanted to up-sell me and for the sake of wanting to get my nails done without a fuss, I caved in and said fine. She was very aggressive. Jesse yanked my hands, twisted my fingers to the point of pain, she cut my cuticle, made me bleed. I am not a sensitive person, I can take it. But this was hands down a very abusive experience. She gossiped about me to one of the nail techs - I know because as she spoke, the nail tech took a good look at me and they shared a laugh. The color (glitter) I chose was listed as OPI but when the glitter was brought out, it was not OPI. It was some off brand. I was charged $15 more for this color specifically. It's dishonest to have it listed as OPI when it is in fact not. End result: My nails are thick, clumpy, not smooth, and some of the ends are not polished. I can feel the glitter when I touch the tops of my nails- they should be smooth. I always leave a tip. I try and sympathize with everyone. Maybe they are stressed, maybe they are having a bad day? But with Jesse I did not appreciate the dishonesty, hand yanks and overall experience. Do not go to Jesse Ho for your nails! I will not be coming back to Kure. I'm looking forward to getting my nails fixed tomorrow at Gloss Nail read more

I'm new to the area and came here based on a coworker's recommendation. I had a great experience with Leanne. I came in with an idea of a fall color I wanted but upon seeing some amazing shimmer gel colors I had to give this one a try. Parking wasn't too bad first thing at 10 am on a Saturday. I noticed it filled up very quickly, in the salon and surrounding street/parking spots, so I'd advise the earlier the better as far as weekend appointments! Definitely a great vibe and great service as well. Love that you can venmo tips right to your nail tech and that they offer you sparkling water on the way out! read more

I rarely have had a bad experience here and any time something is slightly off, they have always made it right. They have a great selection of gel colors and options. The only thing I miss is the amazing coffee drinks they used to serve (no more since Covid) but that isn't their fault!! read more

LOVE Karen at Kure Spa. She's a lovely person, meticulous and exceptionally good at her job. I'm in Pasadena but it's worth the drive to Kure. I've tried other mani places closer by but the polish does not last, or the callous removal is a couple swipes or they don't paint over the top of the nail so white shoes through. I know she works Thursdays and Sundays but call ahead for her schedule, you'll be happy you did! Karen takes great care with everything she does. I highly recommend her! read more

My go to nail spa these days. What I like most of this place is their quality of service and cleanliness which are two main important things for nails salons. The staffs are friendly and professional. I mostly get gel mani and I can say they are pretty high quality done by well experienced staffs. Spa pedicure which I normally get is a relaxing bliss. Keep up with great job read more

I have been coming here for a year and a half after the Covid Lockdown. It is clean and the pedicures were professionally done. It was a bit more expensive than the other nail salon I use to go to and I thought it was worth it. I went there yesterday and the guy spent 15 minutes giving me a pedicure I desperately needed. He gave a lame massage, never cut and cleaned my cuticles, or cleaned under the nails. He only cut my nails and painted them. I told the person at the front desk that this was the worst pedicure I have had here. I don't like to complain unless I feel it's not fair and they should know. I didn't have the time to get them redone at that moment. She said she would speak to her boss and they texted me they would give me a $10.00 credit. I pay that in a tip. I'm looking for a better nail salon. This place is about volume, not about doing a good job. Keep your $10.00!!!! read more

The manicurist was great, and I loved my nails, but I was very dissatisfied with the pedicure and customer service. I added on the callous removal to my pedicure and the service was disappointing. The callous still remains. The pedicurist did not cover the entire area with the gel and barely attempted to scrub it off. When I checked out to pay I let the owner know that there was an issue with the callous treatment and the response was that she would talk to the pedicurist for next time. There was no offer to correct the treatment or offer of a discount or refund. I'm going to have to go elsewhere to get the treatment redone tomorrow, unfortunately. The message was that you will pay for a treatment that you effectively did not receive. I'm very disappointed. read more

Jane is my absolute favorite! I met her before I came here and to be honest, her perfect manicure was what brought me in here before my vacation time started. Very convenient since I work very close! (Literally across the street) I was treated very nicely since I was greeted. Front desk girl was the nicest and I ended up getting a design similar to her suggestion. Keep It up Kure!!!

Kure Spa - Ruby getting down as well with an impecable pedicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I don't know what happened to this place, but last night was the worst mani-pedi I've had and my nails will need to be redone. First off they couldn't accommodate a walk in. They offered half a service. They've always been able to accommodate me as a walk in on Saturdays. So I make an appointment later that night and come back. I still had to wait with an appointment. The mani the polish didn't reach the top of the nails. A bunch of cuticles left uncut. Looks crapy. Pedi - looks about the same as I walked in. Not all of the cuticles were cut. I was rushed out. The guy at the front register had a crappy attitude. I will not be coming back. Maybe I've been lucky, but I've always had a good experience here. I get the mani/pedi. Come in without an appointment and am seen right away. Not over the top friendly, but not rude. The place is clean and good quality polish with many color options. read more

Found this store thru yelp & got an appointment very quickly, which I really liked. I visited many stores & was never satisfied, so I decided to try Kure Spa. I sent them some pictures of the nail art I'm interested in. They responded very quickly and told me they were able to do the design I'm looking for. My appointment was set to 4 PM - had to wait about 10 minutes, which was okay for me. The store is very close to my home & has parking in front. U also have the opportunity to park at CVS or the Bank & walk about 3-5 minutes. Kure Spa is very clean, nice designed and the staff is super friendly. My Nails were done by Sarah. She took time in doing my nails very well and made sure they were even and had the same length. I'm very finical with my nails, so I really dislike if they are crooked or uneven. I always want to get my cuticle removed which was 10 dollars extra. The rhinestones used are Swarovski AB crystals which I really like. I'm not the fan of plastic rhinestones, cause they can look cheap and fall off easily (my experience). Unfortunately the topping gel goes a little over my nail, so it's not such a nice finish. Because it's transparent you also see some bubbles inside of the acrylic/gel. I paid 95 $ for those nails (without tip) which is a little pricey for me. I compare the price to my regular nail artist in Germany (where I live). Same design was 80 Euro. (We don't have tip in Germany and the prices listed have the tax already included). In total I'm happy with my nails & the design is nice! I'm sure I come back again & definitely recommend the shop. Thank's for reading! :-) Adding this as an update: right after my post.. big rhinestone fell of while I was washing my hands.. not so happy. Was there a few days ago.. Update 2.0: Because my Nails didn't lasted that long, Kure spa gave me a credit towards my next manicure. I really appreciate that! Thank you! read more

Loves mimosas and getting your nails did? Kure spa is the perfect place for ya! In fact, this is the only nail spa i know thats got complimentary mimosa! So i was extra excited! Right after i walked in the door. I was greeted by a super friendly receptionist. And their store smell soooo goood! Not like the other nail salons i been to that smelt like acetone and etc. Aside from that, the decor and ambience was really nice inside. I would say it is the nicest nail spa i ever been to! As i was seated in their comfy sofa chairs. I was offered mimosa right away! Hmmm it was delicious. The manicurist and pedicurist were super nice and friendly. Im usually pretty indecisive, so i didnt know what color to get. (there were so many pretty colors as shown in my pic). They gave me suggestions and helped me decide. I love how they took their time on and werent rushing even though it was almost closing time. Overall, I really liked my experience here and would def come back and try the different services they offer. Oh and dont forget to check in on yelp for $5 off! :) read more
