Love my nails ! Only place where I get my nails done :) ive been coming here for over a year and wouldnt drive to anywhere else ! thank you

I love Lumi Nail Studio so much! All the nail techs here are extremely talented and can freehand any design. They all take their time prepping my nail beds and cuticles that there are never any hang nails or ripped skin around my nails as the weeks go by. The gel never lifts or chips either even though I am a climber. I can't ever stop staring at my nails whenever I get them done here.

This review is loooong overdue but I love this place! I have tried at least four different techs and they truly are all really great. All the girls focus on quality and I feel like the prices are pretty fair. Also, my nails have never lasted so long at any other salon. I could easily go a month without returning with no chipping.

I've passed by Lumi Nails so many times and had no idea it was even there! I finally stopped in and booked with Tina. I showed her a photo of what I wanted and she absolutely nailed it. She was also super clear about pricing before we started, which I really appreciated. I hate being surprised at the end of an appointment. The only downside is the parking. There are only three spots in the back, and whatever you do DO NOT park near the massage spots. The woman from the massage place will come outside and yell at you (if you're just near her space. She's over it! ) So just plan ahead for parking! Other than that, Tina is amazing and I'll definitely be back.

Came in to Lumi Nail Studio finally and was NOT disappointed. Vivian did such a beautiful job with my nails. Attentive and making sure I loved every detail. Will definitely be coming again and you should too!

Cressina C.

I religiously come here to see Vivian every 3-4 weeks. My nail retention is always so good, never any lifting or chipping, and I have never broken a nail with the hard gel. Today I tried some Christmas nails and of course she delivered! I would highly recommend!

This review is for Olivia! I wanted to get my wedding nails done for a design that was done by Joan. The design was originally for my bachelorette trip but it got such great feedback that I decided to do it for my wedding too. I just LOVE her gel application. She applies just enough so that there isn't excess spilling out, and she is super neat about it. She cleans up excess gel even if there's a little bit. She's super detail oriented and is direct about her questions. Another thing is she's transparent about what you'd be paying for. She always mentions what will be added cost before she proceeds. I feel like nothing can slip past her cuz she's always on top of it. I will def come back for her!

This place was a game changer. Recommended all my coworkers and they all love this place. The Japanese gel keeps my nails intact and they last LONG! I'm a builder gel kind of girl, but hated how thick they come out. With the Japanese gel, it keeps it nice a thin making it look very natural! Trust my nails with Olivia always! She copied the design I want to the TEA! Will only come here for my nails!

I've been going to Iris at Lumi for the past few months after this salon cam highly recommended by a coworker with amazing nails. First, Lumi is super easy to book an appointment - I love that it's all online and there's no jumping through hoops or waitlists etc. I've never had an issue getting an appointment with Iris when I'm looking for one. I always do a manicure with hard gel overlay and design. They last for 4+ weeks with no chips and breaks. Iris has such attention to detail when shaping and building my nails. And she kills the design every time. The shop is clean and peaceful and there is usually something Netflix playing on TV. Parking is really easy to find in the area - I usually park on Mountain and have never had a problem. I've already recommended Iris and Lumi to a few friends and no one has been disappointment. 10/10 recommend!

Stephanie M.

I'm always in awe at how amazing my nails turned out since getting my nails done at Lumi this year. I've only seen Tina so far and she's been killing it every single time!! She's very gentle, precise, and detail oriented in her nail art while always checking in with me if the designs are good. The results always look exactly the same as the inspo pic. Even my nails still look great after growing it out for 4 weeks! Highly recommend!

I've been coming to lumis for almost a year now and always have a great experience. Customer service is great and I love how all the nail techs pay attention to detail and are very accommodating. Although they all do a great job, Tina is my go to. She gives recommendations and is honest on what she can and can't do.

Leslie H.

This is my absolute favorite nail salon. I always get builder gel so that my natural nails don't chip. All the nail techs here are precise and take their time prepping the nails. They meticulous about their work. I've tried other nail salons and have immediately regretted it. The nails last for a month without lifting. Love this spot.

This is the place to go if you want to have gorgeous nails that last weeks. I've been a loyal customer for a few years now. Crystal is my nail artist and always makes my ideas 10X better than my vision. Her attention to detail is impeccable. Book your appointment now! Both locations are beautiful, clean and relaxing. You won't regret it.

I love Lumi! I've been going to Crystal for several years now (and probably will forever and ever hehe) Her and her staff are all very sweet and so talented. I usually get a gel manicure every 4 weeks and always leave my appointment with such pretty nails. During the appointment, I usually have a photo for inspiration and she's able to recreate the design or enhance them to make them look even better on your nails! Crystal is very creative and meticulous with her work. There are times where I can just tell her what color scheme I'd like and she creates something lovely with it. I really appreciate the quality of the gel manicures as they hold up so well! Even after a month or more, they still look so good & I've often gotten compliments on how pretty my nails are. Definitely recommend Crystal & all the Lumi staff! read more

I went in for a full gel x set with Iris Liu and showed her an inspiration photo. She didn't look at the photo well enough to see the color, so she gave me regular gel polish colors. I was confused on how she was gonna make it look like the picture, but I picked a color. Then when she started painting, it looked absolutely nothing like the photo. I told her that it wasn't right, and that there was an ombre at the bottom, And she showed her coworkers. She seemed annoyed. She pulled out a more glassy polish, then painted my nails with it regularly. She still didn't do the ombre but I didn't correct her because it was close enough. she charged me an extra $20 just for using a different kind of polish. She didn't do any special designs or anything. then a few hours after I left I noticed that three or four of them were noticeably crooked. I can't believe I paid $100 for this. I have attached my inspiration photo below for reference. read more

I had high hopes for this studio as I looked at several different places in the area. I really wanted the Japanese style of gel for my nails and nail art. However I was very disappointed by a couple of things. I do want to preface that my nails were beautiful by the end but the service fell short. First of all I have no idea what their sanitary standards are because I'm used to seeing clean instruments fresh out of the autoclave. But all the bits I saw stayed at the station and it was used on everyone. Which brings me to my next point was during my cuticles getting trimmed I was cut. So I was very concerned since I'm now bleeding and having instruments not properly disinfected used on me and other people. My last point is just more preference, my nail shape was sloppy and not even. The gel application was also uneven and there was no apex created which can lead to nail breakage on longer nails since there is no structural support. Also I wanted a professional manicure so that my cuticles would be nice and clean but on day two my cuticle was peeling and I had to deal with hangnails on each finger. Lastly I wish they were more transparent with prices. You book a manicure with a design and depending on the complexity you get charged more. I was not expecting a $35 up charge for glitter and painted flowers. I'm sorry but this nail salon was just not for me. read more

I've been coming here frequently now and I go to Vivian for Japanese gel manicure. She has great attention and makes sure I like the set. She goes over pricing, any changes if needed (price, color, etc.), and makes sure I'm just overall aware. The salon is quiet and has a tv so they will put on a random show from Netflix which helps to pass time. I always enjoy my time when I come for my appointment.

I went for a much-needed fill manicure and I have such awful decision fatigue I asked her to pick the shape after I picked the colors. She said no so I picked round. Then 5min later she said square would better so I said fine. Then they started doing my mani pedi (the pedicure was perfect) at the same time and to be honest I wasn't paying much attention because I've been there a number of times and had great manicures. When she was finished the gel was lumpy and uneven and the shape wasn't even consistent. I also brought along my uv gloves but was told they don't use uv and then they promptly put my hands under a Uv lamp. Won't be going back again. read more

They had about six pedicure stations which all happened to be occupied on Saturday night. It wa very sanity which is of course of the utmost importance when it comes to a nail salon. The pedicure chairs don't have massages which I was looking forward to, but it was still fine. The ladies here were all really nice. My regular pedicure ended up costing me $30.

I had a very disappointing experience with my 3:30 PM appointment with Yoki. I arrived early, yet she was running late and only attended to me after 3:30. From the start, she seemed rushed and rough when removing the varnish, and she wasn't as careful when shaping my nails. She even skipped important steps, such as removing the cuticle. When I showed her the nail design I wanted, she suggested using stickers instead, claiming it would be faster. I found this unacceptable, as I had arrived on time and it wasn't my fault that she was overbooked or running late -- but I was trying to be understanding. Her inattentiveness continued--she forgot that I had specifically requested hard gel and applied a regular gel base instead. I had to remind her after she had already applied a layer, which resulted in my nails feeling unnecessarily thick and uneven. As she applied the polish, I noticed streaks and commented on it. Her response shocked me: she asked, verbatim, "Do you wanna change person?" I was stunned and just stared at her, after which she followed up with, "Because I don't know how to do that." At that point, I snapped and told her, "We don't have to continue this if you don't know how to do nails." There was silence, and no apology. She asked me what I wanted to do next, and I told her it was up to her. She continued working, but the experience was deeply unpleasant. What's worse, she proceeded to talk about me in Mandarin, assuming I wouldn't understand. This behavior is unprofessional and unacceptable. I have never been treated this poorly during a service appointment. The lack of care, respect, and basic skill needs to be addressed immediately read more

I recently visited Lumi Nail Studio and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. This cute, classy salon is an absolute gem, exuding elegance and charm the moment you step in. The ambiance is inviting and soothing, perfectly balancing modern chic with a touch of warmth. The nail techs at Lumi nail are truly top-notch. Not only are they incredibly skilled, but they also display a keen eye for detail and a genuine passion for their craft. They took the time to understand my preferences and provided thoughtful recommendations that perfectly suited my style. The quality of the service was outstanding. The tools were clean, and the products used were great quality. My nails have never looked better. The entire experience felt luxurious, yet the prices were surprisingly reasonable. What stood out the most was the friendly atmosphere created by the staff. They made me feel welcome and comfortable, ensuring that my visit was not just about getting my nails done, but also about enjoying a relaxing and pampering experience. I highly recommend Lumi nails studio to anyone looking for a relaxing salon with talented nail techs who genuinely care about their clients. This place is a true sanctuary of beauty and relaxation, and I can't wait for my next visit! read more

I'm honestly so happy I met Vivian! She's not only incredibly professional but also has an amazing eye for beauty and detail. At first, I had no idea what kind of nails I wanted, but after chatting with her about my usual outfits, favorite colors, and the vibe I like, she designed this look perfectly tailored to me. The red shade is stunning -- bright yet classy, it makes my skin look so fresh and radiant. And those tiny hand-painted flowers are so delicate and refined that I can't stop admiring them. The whole experience was so relaxing and comfortable. Vivian was patient, thoughtful, and kept checking to make sure I loved every detail. I truly can't recommend her enough -- she's not just skilled, she really understands beauty and people. read more
