Vicky B.

I am thrilled to share my experience with a beautiful pink French tip chrome Gel-X extension set that has truly captivated me. The chrome effect added a touch of sophistication, creating a mesmerizing visual experience that immediately caught the attention of those around me. The application process of the Gel-X extensions was seamless and professional. I was pleasantly surprised by how lightweight and comfortable they felt, as if they were a natural extension of my own nails. I'm so happy with my experience! Zalak was so friendly and made my whole experience amazing will definitely be recommending her to my friends.

So much fun, and so grateful!! Can't wait for my next appointment.

Highlights because otherwise this review would be ten pages long: --she's amazing and super friendly, even though I asked her if she could take me last minute nearing 8p for a full set (she does have an up charge the later in the evening it gets) --so easy to talk to --understood exactly what I wanted, and picked a perfect color when I gave her dealer's choice --did not comment on the heinous state of my nails when presenting them after months of neglect (I apologize in advance for the photos, but she really did an incredible job) --changed the music when I wasn't feeling the jams and didn't make me feel awkward for asking --overall solved every problem I've had with other nail techs and my experiences thus far with manicures

Super thick and bumpy nails. No nail polish on the edges...

This is just a response to the owners' reply. My original review remains. I never expect anything for free. I also always tip regardless of the quality of work which is why I tipped you. This review is merely an unbiased review of the quality of work I received. I never expect work for free but you literally did a bait and switch. You never told me nail art was an additional fee. I told you over the phone I wanted to do a design and that I always do hard gel. When I showed you the design in person you didn't say there was any additional associated fee. This implies it's the same fee we already discussed. How is a hard gel fill $80 more than the fee for a new full hard gel mani with design that you quoted me over the phone? Any reasonable person would assume it's less or the same! You didn't spend any time shaping my nails and didn't even copy the design I showed you. Additionally, you DID NOT offer to fix anything. When I asked you through out the process, you said it was "too late". I would suggest instead of making yourself look worse, that you take this constructive feedback and grow.

Nail polish doesn't even extend to cuticle Also, this is claiming to be matte

Cary L.

Asked for a simple black matte manicure came out with a sloppy job. My 6 year old cousin could've done a better job. The nail tech had a book of stickers on the desk, so I asked to add one of her banana stickers. She didn't cut or shape my nails. She rushed through the coats with no drying in between sticker placement. The sticker is squished. She applied the clear black matte coat while the black coat wasn't even dry yet. Some of my nails are shiny, others matte. I was under the incorrect assumption you were known for your nail designs. If you can't nail a matte black nail job, you sure your Yelp photos are yours? Photos below were taken right after I got my nails done last night.

Love my nails they came out so beautiful

Zalek did an amazing job with my nails . She was very fast , efficient and professional. 10 stars! I will Definitely book again

Hard gel with a pretty neutral gel polish.

Amanda W.

I am so glad I came to Zalak for my nails. This was my first time doing a hard gel, and she was so sweet and made me feel incredibly comfortable. I always experience anxiety and nail salons, but Zalak killed it--even fixed three broken nails with so much care. Wish i did a more fun design too, since she is such an artist.

J F.

Well I got here reference through a friend whose already her fan so thought to give a try the best thing is her variation of designs and colors.I got get x extension with design . really loving it thank you zalak definitely I will give 5 stars and recommend everyone to give a try.

Zalak is an absolutely incredible nail artist. I love long sets with elaborate art and she absolutely MURDERED this set. I'm obsessed and so grateful to have found her. She works out of a very private space that makes receiving this service feel extra special and relaxing. The photos speak for themselves. Can't wait for my next set already.

If you're thinking about getting HARD GEL, do NOT go here. I have been an avid dip advocate and grew out my nails naturally with a hard time finding good techs. I decided to try hard gel and went here after reading lots about the trend and it being healthy. Please read this article about how it is healthy BUT needs to be applied properly: https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/hard-gel-nails-manicure I went to her twice. The first time was free in exchange for trying the service, becoming a "fun new customer" as she wants on her Instagram, and checking in on her Yelp. Well my nail cracked bad within a week and it hurt. I couldn't come and get it fixed because I'm constantly working. In two weeks I had to come in and pay $70 (normal gel/dip/manicure price) for what she considered a "color change" and "one" nail fix. Also a shaping. Two days later, three of my nails have similarly broken and cracked in the middle and I can't do anything with my hands so I now have to find a new tech, cut down all my natural nails super short, and give up what I've been growing. I have never had this problem before with any tech or technique and when texting her about this asking for help, she blamed my nails for being weak. In any industry is never right to blame the client or customer. Again I went back to research and the article I have linked says proper technician form leads to Nail breakage such as this. Nothing should happen this quickly after a manicure and when she did my nails, it took nowhere near two hours -- she rushed and as you can see in the pictures it is sloppy. Lastly, she said to come in for the next "fill" it would be $120 at least. No thanks.

I'm going to start by saying that I feel I found the one! The one that will be taking care of nails and I couldn't be much more happy! I was searching for an open nail salon on a Saturday evening when Nail Bawse popped up as a suggestion. I clicked on the profile, read the reviews and of course checked out the pictures. What I was most excited was that she was open late and also provided mobile services. I immediately contacted her through Yelp, responded within a couple minutes. I was impressed! She let me know she was booked for the evening (my loss), and that she would get back at me for Sunday if she was able to squeeze me in. Here comes Sunday, I'm busy with errands, forgot about our conversation, yet Zalak, contacts me right away that she was booked all afternoon but she would be able to take me either Monday or Tuesday which was fine by me. Booked my appointment online, she was also helpful with guiding me and provided the best customer service ever! As I met up with her, she showed me the difference between hard gel nails and gel overlay. I decided to try out hard gel nails and I am so glad she introduced me to this because I don't want no one touching my nails! She did such a great job! She was attentive, friendly, helpful and since it was late, offered me some samosas (which were to die for!!) and water. She went above and beyond! I have booked my future appointment with her and I'm excited that she will be coming to me! Where else can you get treated so good?

Zalak was fast and professional! She fit me in at the last minute and when it was convenient for me! I needed my nails to be short/neat and Zalak did a great job!

So many colors and designs to choose from!

This is my fourth time getting my nails done with Zalak and she never disappoints! She is has such a great vibe at her home studio, and offers house calls as well. I love that she offers gel x and is able to accommodate any design you have in mind. I showed her a few reference photos and she free-styled with her creative direction. I'm so happy with my results and will definitely be seeing her again soon.

Great service with positive and amazing personality. Love how she left my eyebrows and I'm definitely coming back to retouch them

Zalak is wonderful :) I got a regular mani/pedi and my nails/toes looked perfect!! Regular polish staying on toes is somewhat normal, but the regular polish on my nails stayed perfect as well for a whole week! She does work alone in a small room, so if you're looking for a group thing or a more public nail spa environment, this is not the place for you. BUT you have full control of the nice big screen TV, and she definitely still provides a relaxing and professional experience. read more

I had a house call after having a terrible flu and needed to prepare for a impactful week ahead. Prior to arrival, she communicated well and got classic manicure gel nude short nails. I seem to randomly meet them all elite nail artist, as the ones in LA all knows each other, small world.... A good trivia for her potential new clients is she studied architecture, and found her "hobby" as a "nail artist" to be her right path. For someone who's transition into interior design, that "technical" training definitely shows up in my nails. It's been a week since she's done my nails and the quality of gel she's put on my nails has chipped and still looks polished as ever. Much Gratitude. read more

Zalak is the best nail tech I've come across in LA. Always professional, fun to talk with, and will go the extra mile to make sure your nails are perfect. I have the worst cuticles, but she always takes the time to carefully get rid of all my hangnails. I originally got gel extensions which helped me grow out my natural nails, and now I just get hard gel overlay. My gel has never chipped. The hard gel also protects my nails so that they can grow long naturally. I'm really happy I found her. read more

Let's start off with how amazing Zalak is. She gave me a cookie, she's always stocked with goodies to drink, and we always have long conversations. She makes me laugh nonstop . About her work... she fixes all the things I mess up on my hands because I'm so rough on my hands. She is a true artist from simple manicures, to simple art, to intense detailed art. Sometimes I'll go in with a picture and we switch it up to play and I walk out with a one of a kind manicure that is unbeatable. She's perfect every time and they LAST. Never had mine chip even after 3 weeks. Do yourself a service and get some Zalak in your life. You will not regret it. The work, quality, and friendliness. Can't imagine without her now.. read more

Yes, I came a few months ago and I have a receipt from you. I went from long red nails to short, natural nails for a Photoshoot.

Z is a truly talented nail artist. She takes the time to make everything look perfect and symmetrical. And even though I like simple designs, she can do damn near anything you ask for. I live in Las Vegas but I only come to her in LA and sometimes I'll purposely plan a trip if I have something special I need my nails done for. Besides just the nails she also cleans up the cuticles on both my hands and feet better than anyone I've ever gone to. I get my nails done a lot by many different people, and no one comes close to Z's talent. She loves her job and it translates. read more

I have a very hectic life so have been looking for some time for someone who would come to my house in the evening and do a manicure/pedicure (surprisingly difficult to find, particularly at a price that's not insane). I found Zalak through Yelp. She came over (on time) and did an amazing job with my nails (pedicure and gel manicure). It's clear that she cares about quality of her work. I also thought it may be somewhat uncomfortable to have a person I've never met before be at my house for two hours, but it wasn't at all. Zalak was very easy to have around, talkative but respectful of my privacy. I will definitely use her again. read more

Looking for quick, cheap nails to last you a week? Don't go here. Zalak is a true nail artist who only does amazing nails that last until you grow them out. Really! I had mine done over a month ago and I'm just calling now for an appointment because my acrylics have grown out. Hands up, her work was the best nail treatment I have ever gotten. My nails looked so perfect that people I sent pictures to thought they were from a hand model! (Let's just say no one has ever mistaken me for a model of any kind let alone my gnarled, I-work-for-a-living-with-my-hands fingernail model.) As proof to one friend, I had to send a selfie holding my phone with my nails in it so she would believe they were mine. That's how awesome they looked--like they didn't belong to me. Choose Nail Bawse to get nails that look better than you and look better than you deserve. Go somewhere else to get quick, cheap nails and then be sure to make an appointment to come back in a few days when the polish wears off. As for me, I'll be seeing Zalak monthly or less. But I won't see you there. Her place is so private that she only takes one client at a time. She'll also come to your place for an additional fee. Can getting your nails done be any more relaxing? Or awesome? If only she could make my body look as good as my hands. . . read more

One thing that I believe is important is that I rarely get ingrown hairs when I go to her. In addition, my hair doesn't grow back in an abnormal way. I believe for the price, I am receiving the best quality work! There is a few spots for street parking out front. However, there is also a parking structure that is attached to the facilities that offers free parking.

I had booked my appointment online, which requires a CC to book because if you don't come to the appointment or do not cancel within a certain time you get charged. Which I totally understand! I booked a 6pm appointment the same day. Luckily I checked my email before I left my house (I get so much spam it's hard to stay on track), but they just randomly cancelled my appointment out of the blue. First- why would you not call your customer the same day?? I thought maybe it was a staffing thing, so I called to confirm. They told me it was MY FAULT because I cancelled too many times in the past - 12 times over 8 years!!! As someone who had been going there for 8 years + you would think a phone call or email explaining this would be nice. They said I would no longer be able to book online which is absurd. I'm not going to risk waiting in a walk in appointment. The lack of communication and treatment is truly terrible. Not to mention the girl on the phone who told me this was so rude, saying I was lying and it was all my fault. I will have to try to find a new wax space because this is truly terrible customer service. The only reason they got 2 stars is because I have gotten very good waxes in the past

I got a Brazilian and underarm wax done, and she finished everything in under 30 minutes without rushing.

She's incredibly attentive to your needs, checks in often to make sure you're comfortable, and truly knows what she's doing.

If you're looking for a skilled, quick, and caring waxer in Atlanta, ask for Joeli at the Collier Rd location--you won't regret it.

I didn't have an appointment and came in as a walk-in, but she still took great care of me. Plenty of parking as well.

What a fantastic experience!…read more I needed a last-minute brow wax before a photoshoot with my partner and found this place nearby. Let me say, I'm super iffy about who does my brows because mine are incredibly thick naturally but over the years, I have gone to places that assume I want them thinned out. OR, I walk away with a simple "clean up" job and feeling as though I could have done that myself. After seeing the reviews for Waxing in the City and noticing the proximity to where I was, it seemed like an easy choice. Since my appointment was last minute, I was left with either 9 or 9:15 am or around noon when I knew I needed to be preparing for our shoot. So I went with the 9:15am despite being sleepier than ever these days. Surprising to me, I actually got my life together in time and made it there early! This location is set in a large plaza with a number of businesses nearby which affords lots of great parking. When I entered, I was greeted by Brittany at the front desk who was such a sweetheart. She let me know that since we were the only ones in the building, she would lock the door for safety purposes and I so appreciated that. The interior is so cute, filled with lots of products to check out and waxing marketing all over. Brittany guided me back to one of the rooms which was small but not cramped in any way. Incredibly clean and offering an adjustable flatbed to lay back on that was covered with a disposable sheet, it was quite welcoming. And the playlist?! Fire. I don't love waxing, I mean, who does? But this was such a great experience. They use hard wax vs. strips and I truly prefer it that way. Brittany used small pieces of wax vs. longer ones which made each pull gentler, so great. I let her know that I hateeee tweezing but understand it has to happen, and she was quite patient with me and still smooth when doing so. Because I was a first-time customer, I received 20% off, so appreciated it. I'm truly happy with the final result and definitely plan on returning!

They have a cute reception area with complementary refreshments, the space is bright and clean. Really, the pain in a wax comes down to your upkeep + the skill of the esthetician.

Sooooo I thought I really enjoyed this place until my birthday nails. I paid the 50 dollar deposit. I was told my nails were 250. So my remainder should have been 200. Too bad she said my remainder was 250. I asked "didn't I pay a deposit" she calmly said "yes" so I said you know what fine I'll just pay. It took like 5 hrs for my nails and I ordered us pizza tryna be considerate . So In total my nails were 300. The next week the Chrystal's on my nails began to fall off. I contacted her to get them fixed because these are 300 dollar nails no Chrystal should be falling off. I had to work around her schedule. That's fine but do understand I have a life too and I can't just jump when you say jump. Especially in LA traffic. Not to mention when i get my nails done I always wait for when she does others client touch ups because there is always a client that comes and needs a fix of something on their nail. So I was 20 min behind and she says I have to reschedule. I have waited for her for 20 minutes before so I didn't think that was fair but I said you know what fine I'll just never go back. Now I got these nails in January. It is now March and I can't get these nails off ! I took the thumb nail off and some of my nail came off with it. Now I'm on the pinky and half the nail is coming off too. I really didn't wanna leave this review but I've been more than fair and the price I paid for nails I'm not expecting the hardship that's come with these nails. Beautiful nails but a lot of work and money and grief and now pain. So disappointed read more

I cannot recommend Zalak enough. I have been absolutely blown away every time I go to see her. Not only is she incredibly talented, she uses extremely high quality products that actually last. As a healthcare worker I am not very gentle with my nails, yet my gel manicures easily last over 4 weeks with absolutely no chips or scuffs. 10000% worth every penny. She puts in the time caring for my nails that no generic salon ever will. Aside from the work, Zalak is so genuinely kind and an absolute sweet heart. I actually love coming to get my nails done, which has never been something I've enjoyed. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner! She can do any art you can imagine; I am never worried that the nails might not come out quite the way I want them- she is just that good. Highly highly highly recommend!! read more

Nail Bawse is literally one of the best nail technicians in LA. I have been doing my nails with her for three times and will definitely continue doing so. She is very talented, careful and can do any possible design. For the first time, I had a very detailed design that I wanted and she did it better than I would have ever expected. She can do the wildest and most complicated designs as well as the classic simple ones. She has a HUGE selection of colors and diamonds. It is also super nice to work with her as she comes to your place to do the nails PLUS she is an extremely pleasant person too! I always have such a great time when she is doing my nails. Five stars! :))) read more
