    What I got...
    Jocelyn B.

    came once for a pedicure. I have never had ingrown nails or infections from any shop until I came here. After my first pedicure appointment my big toes were in pain on all sides after a few days, I got to a DR and I'm told I've got to wait for the infection to clear then take nails out. 2 months of antibiotics and it's clear but it was painful. The same service ended with the tech going over my pinky toe knuckle and buffing off my skin and making me bleed. The tech then giggled and rubbed my toe repeatedly stating, "it's ok, I'm sorry". I came back only to get a manicure 1 month later. THE SHOP WAS EMPTY. I was the only person in the morning. The tech rushed for some reason...(I was in desperate need anyway so I can't choose) gave the tech an inspo pic and I thought it was simple... I asked for acrylic and was told she couldn't. Didn't prep my nails/ just warm water, light buff, base, color, top. The dotting tool used had nail polish from previous use and she used a buffing block to clean it? I'm not sure if this is normal.... The picture is same day. Cons; 1.Got multiple ingrown toe nails and infections (this has never happened before) 2. Couldn't do acrylic (didn't tell me why) 3. Rushed 4. Not like inspo pic. Pros; 1. Fast ? literally rushed. 2. The color match is pretty great. 3. The tech is so nice, is an angel tbh. 4. They accept multiple methods of payment

    Nails popping & coming off

    Not even 1 week and theyre already coming off and popping off, i knew this was wrong didnt fully file and prep my nails before doing the acrylic. No wonder place was empty and the lady was still rushing! Very disappointed!!

    Her service was really bad she use the same filler in hands that she use in my feet she also made feel rushed n didn't say thank you she did my nails uneven I went home sad it was my birthday nails that was not nice of her

    Kuromi Toes  Frenchies  Wendy and Vicky did a wonderful job!

    Wendy and Vicky were so sweet and polite!! Vicky helped me pick the color and charm. Wendy did a real nice French tip I will definitely come back again come down and see all the designs ladies so much to choose from!

    This is my favorite place ever! I look forward to my monthly appointments with Jay and Hannah!

    Fill left hand looks a little messier than my right hand with the polish over my fingers not only on my nail

    I had good service the first time I went I loved my set.. but the second time I feel like it was rushed. I had my appointment at 10 today, and everything was going fine until some girl kept rushing my nail tech saying she's in a rush, and then she started hurrying my nails up a bit. I didn't really like the end of the set they're too bulky and chunky and she didn't cut my cuticles so they kind of hurt and are bleeding a bit.. I feel like I want to go back and fix but now i don't know. Overall paid $50 for the fill which was the price of my original full set

    Nice little hidden nail shop very friendly workers. They take their time doing their work. They are very kind. Jay and Hanna did a great job.

    This is a small place and we walked in for the first time yesterday and we were greeted so friendly l. Please bring buisness here they are the friendliest people and so considerate they triple check to make sure you are happy with there work. my daughter picked a color and didn't end up liking it and the Hanna took it off and helped her choose another color and the man Jay kept asking my daughter if she was ok and like the nails so far They did and amazing job and are wonderful people.

    I love getting my nails done by Jay! They came out super cute and really caters to your what would suit you the best. Great attention to detail, would recommend and come here again!!

    Love it here they take care of us all the time !!

    This place thinks washing the tools in the sink with soap and water is ok. That is how you get infections. And spread viruses.

    If you want nails that won't lift after 2 weeks and are nicely shaped and painted then go to Hannah.

    Let's start off by. I know this review is a bit late, but I started my membership with Massage…read moreEnvy. Last year. I actually went in for a Facial just because we were going to a wedding en Mazatlán, Sinaloa, The First Esthetician was Delilah.very professional and kind she explained to me to everything to me since it was my first time getting a Facial. She said that she recommended me to get some other type of Facial within 7 days or something like that , which I still have time before the wedding, so I came across the next Esthetician Evelyn, which was also very professional, kind and respectful friendly person . We started talking about other things that I could do to take care of my skin I highly recommend both of them I had a very great experience I started getting massage with Anna very professional. She works with me on getting to the right pressure Point. She really knows what she's doing. I went in due to having stress. She worked my knots. That I had in my back really worked into them. Anna is the best very professional, kind, and respectful as well. She could work with the pressure point. After a while, it was very hard to book a massage with Anna due to high demand she was busy so I had asked her. It's very hard to get a massage with you to book. A an appointment she had recommended me to. Neira So I booked an appointment with Neira Great customer service. Very professional polite and friendly Also the best massage Therapist works with the pressure Point. She could adjust easily and she's a very friendly person. Makes time go by so quick. She really worked out my back and legs I highly recommend this spot. If you're looking to get a great massage. Don't hesitate. I'm booking an appointment with Anna or Neira and also, if you want to get a Facial done as well. Hit up Evelyn or Delilah.

    I've have had entirely too many canceled appointments with various massage envy locations including…read morethis one. One on my birthday, my wife's birthday and on multiple anniversary's. Most recently, we were called on my birthday to say that a therapist could not make it in. No incentive provided to reschedule. Needless to say, it threw off my whole birthday, where I was scheduled to receive massages with my wife. I reached out to corporate to provide feedback but they never returned my phone call. I absolutely do not recommend this place.

    Pioneer Spa in Norwalk was honestly such a disappointment and I really wish someone had written an…read morehonest review before I went. I've been to a lot of Korean spas across LA and Orange County like Century, Wi, and Crystal, so I know what to expect. A friend recommended this one and I thought it'd be fun to try something new, but this was by far the worst experience I've ever had. The only reason I'm even giving it two stars is because of the owner, Mr. Kim. He greeted me at the front, was very polite, and took time to explain everything even though I already knew how these spas work. His friendliness stood out, but that was the only positive part of my visit. Parking was easy and free, which was nice, and I got a spot right in front. The spa is inside a small indoor plaza that feels more like an outdated mini mall than a wellness spot, and the entrance is confusing. Once inside, everything felt cramped and outdated. The cold plunge and jacuzzi were ridiculously small, maybe two and a half feet deep, and you could barely fit two people without bumping elbows. The jacuzzi wasn't hot enough, the cold plunge wasn't cold at all, and the overall atmosphere didn't feel clean or rejuvenating. The amenities were just way below what you'd expect from a Korean spa. The sauna said 173 degrees but I sat there for over twenty minutes and didn't sweat once. The steam room was the opposite, dangerously hot. The steam comes out directly from a vent near the bottom, and if you're sitting anywhere close to it, it literally burns your legs. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's unsafe. Even sitting higher up, I had to constantly scoot away because of how intense the bursts of steam were. That should absolutely be fixed because it's a serious safety hazard. On top of that, the jacuzzi and cold plunge both had warning signs taped on the railings that said things like "Be careful, this is not strong, do not shake." That alone made me feel uneasy. If the metal railings aren't sturdy enough to lean on, they shouldn't be in use. It's something so simple to fix, and I don't understand how they're operating without addressing it. The common area wasn't comfortable either. There were a few massage chairs that you had to pay extra for and no real seating to relax. The orange uniforms were funny and bright, but it made the place look more like a gym than a spa. There are themed rooms like an oxygen room, but they don't offer much. I was planning to eat at the restaurant since the website said it was open, but when I asked, the staff told me it had been closed for a while. Honestly, that was probably for the best because the space is so small that food smells would've been overwhelming. They do offer a few small items like shaving cream, a disposable razor, and a scrub, which is thoughtful, but it doesn't make up for the lack of quality. Between the outdated facilities, safety hazards, and disappointing amenities, this place just isn't worth it. For the same price, I'd rather go to Joy Spa or Century Spa in Koreatown where you actually get what you pay for. Those places have better amenities, cleaner spaces, and real attention to comfort and safety. Pioneer Spa feels neglected, cramped, and uncomfortable. I left more tense than when I arrived and definitely won't be going back.

    I miss this spa. It is very good the money and a decent size. Not too big and not too small.read more
