    Maple makes sure that I'm vacation ready!

    Congratulations on your second location, Lumi! Their new studio is the new neighbor to Oh Shiny and Dots Cafe, and shares a lot with them! Yay - parking is readily available! From beginning to end, each and every experience with Lumi is a dream. They have an online booking system through Vagaro that is accessible through the link on their Instagram page. It is quick and easy to book any artist or service that you'd like on any given date or time. I typically book back-to-back services (manicure and pedicure), and it's amazing! I have recently leaned towards gel manicures with no designs, but their artists are incredibly creative, so please out their Instagram page for their work and/or inspo! Whether I book with Crystal, Rebecca or Maple, the service is spectacular - in fact, above and beyond. I tend to have dry skin (due to excessive hand washing), and am appreciative with how mindfully they work to ensure that I am taken care of. It totally eases my anxiety, and I'd highly recommend any of Lumi's highly skilled artists. Tip: if you pay with cash, there's a stamp card option! :)

    First time at Lumi and it was so great! The salon is beautiful and peaceful. I absolutely loved my Japanese gel from Mandy! She was so detail oriented and patient with me despite not having a super clear idea of what I wanted. She totally nailed it, pun intended. Plus is that parking was easy and next to the cutest gift shop and cafe!

    I've visited their location off Lake a few times but was a bit far and parking is terrible. Since they opened the second location (closer to my house) I'm definitely going to visit more often! Plus side this location has way better parking. Showed a nail inspo and Mandy hit it out the park! Love my manicure!! Book w/them you won't regret it!

    TL;DR: Lumi Nail Salon is the best in LA -- Crystal and the team are true artists who never miss. I always leave obsessed with my nails! Lumi Nail Salon is truly the best! Crystal is an absolute artist -- she can make almost anything I dream up come to life on my nails. I've never once left disappointed; every set she's done has been beyond beautiful. The attention to detail, creativity, and care she puts into her work are unmatched. The whole team at Lumi is so talented -- everyone there is an artist in their own way. Whether I'm going for something minimalist or super intricate, they always deliver perfectly. I always walk out loving my nails and already excited for my next appointment!

    Hands down the BEST hard gel manicures and nail art! I've been to many nail salons, but this one truly stands out. The hard gel manicures are flawless and long-lasting every single time. The design work is next-level--no matter which tech you get, everyone here is incredibly talented and detail-oriented. I've brought in both simple and complex ideas, and they always exceed my expectations. The salon itself is super clean and beautifully maintained, with a modern, relaxing vibe. Plus, there's convenient parking, which makes the whole experience even more stress-free. If you're looking for stunning nails, expert-level designs, and a consistently great experience, this is the place. Highly recommend! Love Lumiii love you crystal

    I've been a Lumi Loyalist for 4 years now (!!) and honestly Crystal never misses. So glad she opened a second location- the whole vibe is so cute, clean, and calm. It's one of those places where you instantly feel like you're treating yourself just by walking in. Crystal always kills it with my nails, she's super precise, gentle, and just gets it. Even if I don't know what design I want, she somehow reads my mind and it always turns out perfect. They offer such a wide range of cateye colors and the nail charms are endless. All the Lumi girls at this location are talented too, you can literally sit with anyone and walk out feeling refreshed and put together.

    New location! Super bright space with ample parking. It's easy to book an appointment and most of the techs are very talented. Crystal, the owner, does super amazing work. I get Gel X manicures from her and she never disappoints. She executes your desired designs and the nails last. Highly recommend.

    LUMI CONTINUES TO SPARK JOY almost 4 years later....I have been going to Lumi, specifically Crystal, every month like clockwork since January 2022. I live in the IE and the drive out is worth every single dollar (although this new location is a few exits closer!). Crystal has always been meticulous when it comes to the quality of her work, and that has not changed despite both studios being consistently booked and busy. She's not only discerning when it comes to nail art and what would look good, but also when it comes to handpicking all the talented and skilled artists at her studios as well. I always get Japanese gel with designs (with the occasional gel x extensions for special events) and the way my nails are sooooo healthy and strong and unbreakable shocks all of my friends who get their nails done at other places. I will let my photos speak for themselves, but I know every time I go to Crystal it's not just about getting the design on the nails...she also does such an amazing job taking care of removal, filing them down, and maintaining the integrity and quality of your nails and making sure its at its best before getting to the designs. She's also very detail-oriented, never rushes you even if she's running behind, and you can tell she loves her craft because her work has only gotten more deft over the years, like she practices and keeps up to date on all the new techniques / products. Plus, she's always very sweet and patient with my crazy requests / ideas, is accommodating, and always communicative. Even when my nails grow out or there's a long time between appts the my nails / designs don't chip and they still look brand new! I can never go anywhere else, & I'd follow Crystal & Lumi anywhere and everywhere!

    I've been going to Lumi Nails for about a year with Crystal and I swear everyone there including herself is so talented. I spent a long time searching for a nail studio that specialized in nail art and Asian nail designs and I've finally found them! They are reasonably priced and always replicate whatever design I show them, the proof is in the pictures! All of the ladies are so welcoming and the tv entertainment is chefs kiss. I've recommended my coworkers to this place and they make great gift card options! Love love this place, finally found my forever nail place

    I've had only amazing experiences here only! I was looking for a new nail studio after moving back from college in 2022 and found Crystal through Instagram! I haven't stopped going since! She does the best nails! I mean, just look at some of the nails she's done! My mom even comes with me and she's gotten her nails done from the other ladies before as well. They've always turned out amazing. Everything is top quality and all of the employees know what they're doing. They all have a good sense of style as well and can offer good advice should you be an indecisive person like me! Despite the salon being in Pasadena and me having to drive 1.5 hrs in traffic to get there usually, it's 100% worth it. And that says a lot since I hate driving with a passion. The shows that they put on while doing nails are also so entertaining! Vibes are awesome! 10/10 recommend!

    I highly recommend Lumi Nail Studio to everyone; I look forward to all my appointments here. The salon is very clean and comfortable and Lumi staff are kind and welcoming. I like intricate nails with lots of details and 3D design and my go-to artist is Crystal; she is an amazing nail artist who ALWAYS understands my ideas, knows what I like, and adds her own touch to make all my nails unique and breathtaking. My nails always came out better than I envisioned them- Crystal executes them flawlessly, I'd say even better than the inspo photos! Crystal is incredibly professional, detailed, and talented. I am lucky to have found my go-to nail place and artist.

    Japanese Gel Manicure

    Maple did such a great job on my pedicure!! The salon is clean and bright, and I felt so pampered. I also cane back for a manicure with Crystal and she was fantastic! Will definitely be back.

    Rebecca is amazing! She's so gentle, patient, and really pays attention to details. Every time I leave, my nails look perfect and last for weeks. The salon itself is super clean, bright, and relaxing,you can tell everyone here really cares about the client's experience. I always feel welcomed and comfortable when I walk in. Highly recommend Rebecca and this beautiful salon!

However, after over a decade of avoiding them, I decided to look for a safer option. I chose The Basic Nail Shoppe because they specialize in manicures, pedicures, gel, and Gel-X using less-toxic products, cruelty free, and made in the USA or Japan. They boast on their website that their products do not contain harmful toxins such as dibutyl phthalate, toluene, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, or camphor. They offer 2 types of less-toxic nail polishes: Zoya and Dazzle Dry. They also carry OPI. A quick google search had me choosing Dazzle Dry. I made an appointment using their easy to use online system and received email and phone calls to confirm the appointment. Upon arrival, I was greeted with a friendly smile and I was offered a complimentary water bottle after being seated. I had the Signature Pedicure ($65) which included the pedicure (nail trim & shaping, cuticle care, and a buff/polich, 10 minute massage, hot towel, scrub, and mask/lotion. You have a choice of scents for your pedicure (milk & honey, green tea, or lavender). They use a boxed system, so the scent is applied to the soak, scrub, mask, and lotion. The entire experience took an hour. The massage chairs weren't super comfortable. They were ok, but the action was a little rough even on the low settings. The music in the salon was piano covers of pop songs. Overall the facility was very clean and modern. Sylvia was very pleasant and did a great job. She was very gentle. Tips are given directly to the employees via Zelle or Venmo.

Her tone was kind of rough and rude. I find their gel color selection to be limited. There were only two sheets of colors. Maybe the other color samples were given to other customers or somewhere else???? I even asked her if there were more colors to choose from and she pointed to the same two samples she had. I was told to pick a color and wait. After waiting for 15 minutes I left. There are three other nail shops in this Sierra Madre Foothills shopping area. This nail shop is relatively new so I decided to give it a try. But there are plenty of options within a 1/2 mile radius and other shops have more color selection. I was in the area again three weeks later, and decided to given them another try. I walked in and a different lady greeted me and informed me there is only a short wait and asked me to pick a color. I was there to remove my gel manicure and I wanted to do a regular manicure to give my nails a break from all the chemicals from gel. After I picked a color, she told me to sit next to her and wait. I waited for about 5 minutes and she asked me to move to a different station. I didn't know why she didn't have me sit there in the first place. Regardless, I moved. If the moving around and waiting were the only issues, that would have been fine with me. The lady started cutting my nails. She was cutting so close to the skin underneath my nail, I started pulling my finger away. She yelled at me for doing that. I asked her not to cut too short. She said she's trying to make all the nails even. I had a really short one that broke off. I said it's ok to not make them even and if you are going to cut them so short and so close to the flesh underneath the nail, you need to push down the flesh, so I don't feel like you are going to cut my skin. I even gave her a suggestion on how to mitigate the situation.. I was coaching her on how to cut nails close to the skin so the client wouldn't feel like their flesh is gonna get cut. She didn't listen. I pulled away again, afraid. She yelled at me again. She said if I pull away, she can't do her job and she may end up hurting me. I said you are already hurting me and you are doing it over and over. After all the back and forth, I paid for the gel manicure removal and left. I didn't want her to file or do the coloring anymore. I didn't trust her. I never had any manicurist yelled at me or argued with me like this. I was not expecting of being fearful of getting cut and getting yelled at multiple times. The interior was spacious and new. But the service was unprofessional and the work unskilled to say the least.
