This nail spot is the BEST around. I've been having my nails done in Burbank for about 25 years, and I never loved it until I found nail ink a couple years ago. They are friendly, clean, and the biggest thing for me is that I never feel like they're talking about me! That may sound weird, but other places I always felt paranoid and not completely comfortable. The owner, Lucy, is so so nice and welcoming. I've had many of the nail techs but Lee is my favorite. She takes her time and I always come out loving my nails! I have my eyebrows done here too. The ambiance is shabby chic farmhouse and so cute! Love this place. Would never go anywhere else. read more

I actually wanted to love this salon because I shop at the nail supply store next door all the time and figured, "Why not give them a try?" Walking in, I was impressed. The front desk staff was welcoming, the salon was clean, the prices were reasonable, and the overall atmosphere was great. Unfortunately, the quality of the nails didn't match the experience. From a distance they looked okay, but up close the work was over-filed and sloppy. I got dip on my natural nails, and within just a couple of days the product started chipping, lifting, and separating from my nails. That's not what I'd expect from a fresh set. I didn't have the energy to go back, ask for a refund, or sit through a soak-off, so I just dealt with it. If you're looking for friendly staff and a nice atmosphere, this salon definitely has that. But based on my experience, I wouldn't return for the nail service itself. I hope this was just an off day, but unfortunately the quality didn't justify the money I spent. read more

They are always so sweet at the reception. My go-to technician, Lani, does an amazing job everytime. I appreciate her color recommendations, and chatting with her in general. The vibe here is chill and laid back. Most important thing for me-- I haven't seen catty drama here-- either between the technicians or with customers. read more

the worst nail experience of my life I left crying it was so bad!! do not waste your time or money here! they do not listen they do not care if your satisfied or not and then they overcharge you to top it off I have to walk around with the ugliest nails I work 2 jobs go to school full time I don't have a lot of free time so until I can get another day off I'm stuck with these ugly nails read more

I wanted a gel manicure and even though this place is really mainly appointment based, they were able to get me in quickly as a walk in! This was so nice! One thing I like is that they have everyone who comes in wash their hands before sitting down. I can get behind that policy. My nail tech did an amazing job shaping my nails and cutting down my cuticles. I almost wish I had just had her do a clear glossy coating because it looked so good, but in my mind, I really wanted opaque light pink. She used the color I selected and it was pretty sheer, so she helped me pick a different color option that wasn't see through. It really ultimately wasn't the shade I wanted at all and I feel like my nails look like bubble gum. The color just wasn't quite what I envisioned and it seems a little uneven at the beds of the nail. I would try this spot again- they were very accommodating, I just wish the color had turned out more how I wanted! But there's always next time read more

On my continued search for a nail spot in this area! I went with my usual services (gelx and pedicure) and to prep for an upcoming event with family. I was in a bind and needed to find another place with gelx and day of. The person who took my appointment down was helpful and I was able to be seen the day of, as well as the owner/manager walking around to see how things are going and making sure everything is running smoothly. I had two technicians working on my mani and pedi at the same time. The angle of the pedicure station is a bit awkward/cramped if you're a bit taller like myself and having both hands and feet worked on lol but fortunately the pedicure got done quickly so i could stretch out and relax a little more. The techs let me know if I call earlier, I could perhaps avoid that. Other than that, the feel of the nail salon is like a ranch, country feel and is well lighted. The parking lot is out back and theres an entrance for customers at both exits. Might go check it out again soon! read more

After exhausting so many other Burbank area nail salons that just lacked in either quality or comfort, I discovered Nail Ink & Spa and never looked back. I have been coming here for years now and it only gets better and better. Lisa is a literally nail genius and it's the most welcoming environment. They feel like my nail family. The place is clean and comfortable and I love that it's always decorated for the seasons/holidays. I have changed my nail style over the years and they have always accommodated my wacky ideas. They have an awesome reward system and fair prices for the quality of work. They accept Venmo & Zelle too which is a bonus. I highly recommend treating yourself to a mani/pedi. read more

Save your money and go to the chop shop two doors down. My tech's name was Quyen (can't remember how to spell it correctly). I requested a gel pedi and I've never received such a half ass service. Hardly any shaping, my nails all look like they came from 10 different feet. She was rude the entire service yelling "foot up, foot down!" Every time my nails needed to cure. The color came out very transparent, she warned me before hand and I was upset about it and I didn't ask her to change it or anything. When I saw the color I said "oh yeah, it is very transparent. This a topper". And her response was "I told you it was transparent but you wanted it anyways. I warned you". Excuse me?? Apparently my comment wasn't enough for her to respond with such negativity. Won't be back. Don't waste your money. I can promise you, the chop shop next door will at least shape your toes (even if they cut one off in the process). read more

Lani did my pedicure today and I loved it. She is so friendly, did a great job cleaning, cutting, shaping my toe nails. I will try to book her again next time. The vibes at the salon is chill. They have tv's you can watch while getting a service. Staff is friendly and the salon is clean read more

From the moment I walked in to the nail salon and it was greeted by the suite ladies at the front with their impeccable manicures and their inviting smiles. I felt like this place was home. The style has this farmhouse chic feel to it. The seats are comfortable and the staff is kind, efficient and friendly. I should've known from the moment I searched them in the synchronicity with the fact that it was 1.1 miles and my arrival time was 1212 was sign that this place was gonna be amazing. When I was picking my color, I didn't even notice that the color said Sagittarius Energy, and we are in Sagittarius season. Talk about everything aligning for me to find the best nail salon in Burbank. . read more

amazing pedicure, I am coming back. very clean please and professional staff. I was so happy to find this place since my old one moved to a different location out of town read more

As a treat for her birthday my daughter and I went in for a pedicure (also a manicure for her) The nail ladies are friendly and professional, a welcoming ambiance. So relaxing! I can see why people make a habit of this. We'll definitely be back read more

Nail Ink has been my go to nail salon for the last few years. They are very personable and really take pride in their work. I always feel very welcome and happy to be there. I have tried most of the technicians in the salon and they're all good. I usually do dip on my fingers with gel pedicure. Plus an occasional eyebrow wax. My girls love it too! read more

I walked into Nail Ink to get a gift card for my wife. It was very easy. The receptionist and owner got me in and out quick. My wife visits Nail Ink regularly was very peaceful and serene. She has nothing but good things to say when she visits, so if you're looking for a place to treat your spouse to some pampering I highly recommend Nail Ink. read more

Super rude receptionist!! I walked in to get a mani/pedi and the receptionist was like " We don't have any walk ins we're booked but theirs other salons around that you can go to." The way she said it was so condescending like dumb a** you really don't think I know that??? Never coming back here again! I'll take my money elsewhere without snobby attitudes!!! read more

Lisa is the absolute best! I've never worked with a better nail technician and I religiously get my nails done by her for years. Christina is also wonderful. Good job team! read more

Updating my review. 2 days later one nail completely chipped off and another corner on the other hand is about to chip off too. Super bummed and I'm already on vacation. This place is just okay. I feel like the quality is fine but definitely not worth running back for. The seating and set up is kind of uncomfortable because it's just a long booth with a sink for your feet. It feels not as relaxing as the salon massage chairs. I also feel like the services are kind of rushed and feel like I'm annoying them but getting a service done here. I'd say go here if you're in the area and in need of a manicure or pedicure but my search for a good quality relaxing nail experience continues. read more

Came in to treat myself with some self care and get my nails done! I'm not a usual "get your nails done" person (I break even paint them), but have been thinking about it for a while, and I'm so glad I went to Nail Ink & Spa! They had me send inspo photos ahead of time, and were even flexible when I changed my mind day-of. I had an amazing experience with Lisa! She took her time, and had the best attention to detail. I'm so impressed! Can't wait to come back to her next month! read more

Discovered this place fairly recently, and now find myself going there at least every other weekend for a manicure and/or pedicure. They're very nice, good at what they do, and the vibe is chill. Not super super upscale, but then they don't charge super upscale prices either. :-) read more

They do a great job and are gentle on the nail bed -- have had 2 pedicures here. Relatively reasonable price, if you get a basic pedicure. Conversations are lacking. The woman who did my pedi would ask me a question, and turn away to talk to someone else when I responded. Didn't get the feeling she really cared how my day was... read more

A few weeks ago, I brought my friend in to get a mani and pedi for her upcoming birthday. I typically have had an okay-good experience here so I thought, "I'd love to bring her to this salon!" We get sat down fairly quickly (we had an appointment) and we discussed with the nail techs what we both wanted. My friend showed a video reference of what she wanted for her nails and then I guess there really wasn't a confirmation if they could do it or not, even after the techs watched the video a bunch of times. They only communicated with each other and not my friend. So they proceeded with the service with my friend thinking she'd be able to get what she asked for. At a certain point I missed a lot of the communication that was or wasn't happening between nail tech and my friend. When I was done with my service, I went and sat next to my friend as I thought she was having a good experience. Come to find out they could not complete the design, in fact, even the style that she wanted. My friend tried her best to make it work and pivot but at a certain point they just flat out said they don't have the tools they need to create the style. My frustration as a friend/customer is the fact that I had faith they would be able to do this service and do it well. I brought her in and recommended this place after all. And it wasn't until AFTER they painted her nails black (reference: she wanted a red jelly cats eye styled nail) that they told her they just can't do what she wanted. The manager, or who I assumed to be the manager, also confirmed they did not have the tools they needed to complete the service..... If you knew you didn't have the tools or at least were unsure if you had them to complete the style/service why did they wait until 1/3 if not half way through the service? My friend did not like her nails, and to make matters worse her nail tech nor manager really did anything to help. The manager said all they could do was discount was $5 since the nail techs did "majority of the service" already. I'm super disappointed with how they handled this situation. My friend ended up having to go to a different salon that COULD actually do the style she wanted. I will note that the manager said that when you book an appointment over the phone, the salon worker is supposed to ask if we wanted a specific design on the nails and typically they'd ask you to send a picture of what you want to confirm they could do the service. Not once did the lady over the phone ask and I don't go super often so how am I supposed to remember to text them a photo? Especially since I don't have their number saved? Again super disappointed with how this salon handled this issue and my friend definitely should've gotten more than a $5 discount without having to fight it. I will note that I also have had a weird experience there. I was getting my nails done for my sister's wedding. When I booked the appointment they did ask me to send over a picture of what I wanted to make sure they could do the style I wanted. They said they could. I get there and we're about half way through the service and I wanted to have these small gold chrome stars on my nails only to find out, again half way through the service, that they didn't have what they needed to do the design I originally wanted. We fortunately pivoted to something I was okay with but again did not leave with the nails I had originally wanted. Sadly with those experiences combined I will not be returning to this salon. Super disappointed :/ read more

I've been here a handful of times, and the quality has been very inconsistent (some great technicians and some not so). Meanwhile, it's extremely expensive for what you get. Onto somewhere else. read more

I have been going to Nail Ink for about 4 years now. Lisa does a wonderful job on my gel manicure. Lani does the most amazing job on my pedicure. Very well run Spa , clean and easy to make appointments. Highly recommend them! read more

I am so thankful this salon was able to take me in on the same day, after another salon was unexpectedly closed. I got dip manicure and regular pedicure. From the receptionist to the nail techs, everything was amazing. Everyone was polite, hospitable, and so professional. The salon itself is super cool, love the decor and the set up of the salon. I love that they have everyone wash their hands before the service starts. The only downside is that there is only street parking HOWEVER, that is not going to be a deal breaker since everyone at this salon was amazing. Highly recommend giving them a try! read more

I found Nail Ink after being disappointed with my old place and researched reviews for something new. I've been coming here since 2018 and it never disappoints. It's beautifully appointed. Great stations to do mani/pedi same time, or just mani. Variety of services. Love that they don't push a package. Owner and staff are lovely. I couldn't be happier when I'm there, A relaxing hour out of my day! read more

Walked in on a Saturday morning w no appointment but needing a repair on a powder dip mani from another salon that was completely peeling after only 5 days ! Had a special event that very night & didn't want to look all janky w one botched nail. Service was really accommodating to fit me in despite a busy day- manicurist spent a lot of time trying to match the color & really do a great job not just quick patch up. Really reasonable pricing. Very clean large gender neutral restroom, parking lot in back. Very satisfied customer! read more

I have been doing my nails at Nail Ink and Spa for over a year. The owner and technicians are great, and I love my nails every time I get them done. I get dipping powder manicures and gel pedicures and I am always happy with the work. read more

This business is a joke. I made an appointment to come back an hour later. After going for the appointment they sat me down put my feet in a bucket and 40 minutes later I was still waiting with my feet in the water. They told me they were short staff so why give an appointment. Waste of my time. I left never again. read more

Did a walk in appointment. I was instantly greeted by the warm smell of home! Everything about this nail spa make me feel comfortable. I will suggest that an appointment is needed to make sure you are thoroughly pleased with your appointment. I got the pick me up with regular polish. My nail technician was amazing! I probably will only go to her. Looking forward to coming back ! Thanks ! read more

My nails were stained pink after I took off the polish - I realized they must not have used a base coat. Although the manicurist and pedicurist were nice, both seemed rushed, the services were not relaxing and they did a mediocre job (and it was expensive!). read more

I went in for a dip manicure and a regular pedicure. The final results were great but I am so incredibly peeved at the fact that several "options" were $5 extra. I have natural nails that were maybe an inch long. Manicurist asked me if I wanted them cut or filed. I asked filed and she said it was $5 because my nails were long. I told her to please cut them to where there wouldn't be an extra cost. Next she asked what shape and I said to keep my same shape which was almond shape. She said that was $5. I told her to chose whatever shape wasn't extra (oval apparently). She then also told me they she waived the $5 extra because my nail beds are too deep. NONE of these prices were listed on the very long list of additional charges on the menu. I dislike when all these little things aren't listed upfront. I feel conned. And even though the final results were good, I had to compromise on things so that these additional $5 charges wouldn't apply. read more

Came here with my mom today for pedicures. Lani, who did my nails, was AMAZING! The 4 stars are entirely for her. She deserves all the praise. She was very sweet, communicative, kept checking in to make sure I was comfortable and that the treatment wasn't hurting in any way. She did a wonderful job on the final product! The only reason this review is not 5 stars is because of the nail tech that did my mom's pedicure. I didn't get her name, but she was very rude, rushed, and never asked my mom what she actually wanted (i.e. nail length, callous removal, etc.) When she was done, she just rushed off without a word. Thank god for Lani, who came back to check on us after our nails were dry and help us BOTH with our shoes. What's worse, when my mom got home, her polish had already chipped and she noticed it was dented/uneven in multiple places. So this other woman did a poor job AND had a bad attitude. Wish we had left the entirety of the tip with Lani instead -- she deserved it more. Lesson learned! read more

I have been coming here for a few months now and I only come for a pedicure and the two ladies that have helped me have done a great job. Eva, by far is the most talented lady here. She takes awesome care of my feet and toenails. She always goes out of her way to make the toenails designs. She's very nice, friendly and very patient!! Eva is my to go lady!!! read more

I have been going to this place for a year now. I'm so happy to found my to-go-to salon around my area. For years, I have been looking for an amazing nail salon and this is it. What I love about them: friendly staff, they have their own receptionists who are so organized, the nail technicians I have worked with are so nice and very professional and they offer refreshments. The only thing I noticed is that whenever I have a manicure occasionally, after 2-3 days the nail polish starts coming off. I don't know if it is due to extensive washing of hands (I worked at a hospital) or it is just the nail polish. I have not tried gel manicure so I'll do that next time. The prices are more expensive than usual nail salon but very reasonable. Overall, the service has been excellent. read more

Had an appointment for a pedicure. The person was running late, still wasn't there 30 minutes after the appointment. Every time I've been there they either don't have enough people or they're "late". Not a walk-in but an appointment. Ended up leaving because the person didn't show up. read more

Amazing and cute salon! I got my gelx filler done with I believe you spell her name Rein, such an amazing job with close attention to details. Other salons cause lumps when doing gel builder, however this place got it right, completely smooth and beautiful nail shape. Also the prices here are amazing, the services are high quality yet low cost, makes me feel like I am in pre-covid era with the price point haha I love it! read more

I can't say that I love the place like there's no massage Chairsits kind of uncomfortable. the woman Joanne who did my manicure was terrible. She cut everything but the skin around my nail it was just like , what!? and I kept asking her to cut the skin. she starts cutting the fucking nail to the point that I got a little bloody inside cuttin everything BUT the skin. so yeah I'm not happy with my manicure. The front desk was friendly and is nice but yeah I wouldn't go here again it's not about money. It's literally about the service. Combined w lackluster massage the lackluster energy on the service. I just wasn't feeling it. Don't recommend. I gave 3 stares because I'm not a hater and I do like my pedicure enough. To rate that. read more

Got a great mani/pedi here. Everyone was super nice. The area is cute. They had tons of great options, and I had a lovely time pampering myself! read more

Pretty bummed after my pedicure here. I scheduled the "me time" pedicure as a birthday treat for myself. On the website, it states that it's a 45 minute service, but I was only seated for 25 minutes. I know it's not gonna be exactly 45 minutes, but only 25 minutes is not worth that price. My feet were in the water for less than a minute! I have never had a pedicure where you don't get to soak your feet! I felt so rushed and unvalued. I mentioned my disappointment while checking out and they were apologetic and gave me $5 off. I was pretty uncomfortable and upset so I just accepted it, but frankly, I feel I should have received 30% off at least since 1/3 of my time was not carried out. If you're looking for a special treat, just go else where. The place is cute and clean but honestly not worth the money and disappointment. Everyone deserves to feel pampered and taken care of, and I doubt you'll find that at Nail Ink and Spa. read more
