I Love my nails!! Jennifer does the best job & she's so creative!! I give her nail polish colors and let her come up with what to do!!! She always thinks of something unique and different every time I come... Thank you Jennifer you're the best!! This is her lasted creation

Lesley J.

She is a nail goddess..took my torn up claws and turned them into gorgeous to-die-for talons!! These look like my own nails but they are tips and acrylics with gel overlay! Thanks again, Jennifer-you are amazing!

Jennifer custom made a shade that I wanted from the picture I showed her. Amazing! She is super sweet, detailed, and efficient. Thanks Jennifer!

If your looking for someone to do your manicure, pedicure or acrylics, Jen is your girl I've been with her for well over 20 years, I've had standing appointments for a time and then switched to when ever I had time ..randomly calling her for a fill or broken nail... never once can I remember her not getting me in! She always does a great job no matter what nail shape. Shes a perfectionist and does flawless work, never have my nails lifted. Best of all she's kind, and has a big heart and a contagious smile!! I love this girl

UPDATE.... Seriously love her! When I have a broken nail... no appt needed! I called her she told me to get my but in there for repair... and didn't even charge me! *** Plus I told her that I was going out, and just wanted to touchup my color... again told me to just come in.. no charge for polish change!!! I've been getting my nails done by Jennifer for over 10 years. She is the best! I've gone to different places between the years. I always find myself back. Her acrylics are beautiful, they never lift!!! Her pedi's are to die for! They do not have those huge massage chairs, just a massage tub with a plastic bag over it, which is okay by me... I feel it is more sanitary anyways. Her nail "artwork" is awesome, when I find something online or in a magazine... she always gives it a go and does a great if not better job. Please book in advance your appt..she's always busy. The salon is full of loyal regulars. But she'll always try and fit you in!!! Love her!!

I have been going to Jennifer since 2001 - she does by far the best work of anyone who has ever touched my nails. She adjusts to the client - whether it is using different materials depending on what works with her clients' chemistry or making sure the shape is perfect to your liking. I stick with acrylic as it works best for me and lasts flawlessly for 3 weeks. She is creative and thorough. And Jennifer is as kind and sweet as they come.

I have been going to Jennifer for nearly 20 years. The quality of her work is unparalleled and she is super friendly and funny. I highly recommend her for all services related to mani/pedi. As for me I utilize her skills with acrylics and let me tell you....I can count on one hand the number of times in 20 years that they have lifted. Just got mine done yesterday. Even with my crooked fingers she does a great job. Thanks Jen!

AMERICA!! Acrylic with gel polish by Jennifer. She's the best

Jennifer is the absolute best there is! My mom and I have been going to her for over 20 years and have never been disappointed. Her acrylic work is amazing and her designs are always on point.

I been searching for a real good nail salon and i decided to give this place a chance based on reviews from yelp. This is my first time going to Jennifer and from the beginning she is so nice. She does a great job and I loved how she did my nails. I am definitely coming back to her. She was able to fit me into her busy schedule. Very gentle with everything and takes her time. The place doesn't take debit/credit cards at this time. They take only cash or check.

No one does better nails than Jennifer! My mom has gone to her for over 15 years and I will never go anywhere else. She is really good about always fitting you into her busy schedule and has even stayed late to do my nails. I have never had a nail lift. She can do any style or design you want and wont nickel and dime you for the gems like most places. No one does better acrylics than Jennifer!

Recently moved to town so have been looking for a good place to have my nails done. I met Jennifer through another esthetician at Salt & Sage. Jennifer is terrific! She is very gentle and won't tug and pull at your arms and hands. She's not in a hurry and takes her time. She was pleasant in conversation and i received a wonderful massage on my hands arms calves and feet . I have natural nails and she's perfectly OK with that. It's been my experience that many other nail people don't want to work on natural nails and try endlessly selling the gels . Jennifer has a ton of colors both for natural and gel nails so you don't have to bring your own. Today she did a natural Cheetah print and I love it! Jennifer also gives each client their own files, heel scrubbers , toe dividers & buffers, I really appreciate this is an extra precautionary practice so there is no cross contamination (bring it with you to your next visit). Thanks Jennifer for taking me on as a new client! read more

THE BEST IN SIMI VALLEY..... I've had acrylic nails for a long time!!!! Needless to say I've had a lot of nail places I've gone to. Some good, some ok. When I moved to SIMI 17 years ago I had to start all over again. I started to look at people at the mall, grocery store, etc. Every woman that had nice nails I asked "where do you go to get your nails done"? After the 3rd lady told me Nails by JENNIFER, that's where I went. It's been 17+ years and not once have I been disappointed. SHE IS AWESOME!!!! So talented. I don't rave very much about anyone unless it is WELL DESERVED. If your not 100% happy with her work, I'll will personally pay you back. read more

Jennifer was my manicurist for over 10 years. I stopped wearing acrylics back in 2008 and had to say goodbye to my beloved acrylic queen! A few months ago, as I prepared for my wedding I decided to get them put back on. I spent 2 months going to 3 different salons near my home in the San Fernando Valley and my acrylics lifted and broke within days no matter how many times the salons would try to fix them. Finally, I decided to search the internet to find out whether Jennifer was still doing nails in Simi Valley. I figured that if I was lucky enough to find her, it would be worth the 30 minute drive to get my nails done by her. Not only did I find Jennifer, but she booked me right away. She did my nails today and they look AMAZING! Jennifer is a true professional. She uses only top quality products and she KNOWS her clients nails. I am thrilled to have found Jennifer again and I would recommend her without hesitation to ANYONE, ANYTIME! read more

This nail salon can be found in a shopping complex off Madera and Royal in Simi Valley. Within…read morethis complex, you can find 24-hour fitness and a grocery store. This small shop is located near Jamba juice within the strip mall. I have been to this nail salon several times and have never had any issues with my experience. As I don't have a specific person that I liked to work with, I have had the experience of working with multiple staff members and have always been pleased with my experience. And the staff members are not offended when you ask them to modify or do touch ups. I appreciate that they are willing to help me find the perfect color. And when I come in with a picture, they are willing to find the color that matches my interest, rather than just sending me to a wall to find my color choice--which is impossible to find in a sea of colors. As I never make reservations in advance, I have been fortunate to never wait when I walk in. The salon does take reservations, and you can request a specific person. Note for tips, you cannot put them on your credit card. You need to bring cash for tips. As for parking, plenty of parking around the shop. Given the gym is nearby the parking lot can get busy so you may need to walk a bit further.

I hate to write this review because I genuinely love their work. They did a beautiful job on my…read morenails and pedicure, and the staff has always been kind. That's what makes this so disappointing. Unfortunately, the way they handle payments is not professional. After my pedicure, I went to pay (with a cash tip) and was asked to send my payment through Zelle. I've paid cash in the past, so this was a bit different, but I understood. I was given a laminated card with a phone number and name, entered the information into Zelle, and the man assisting me confirmed everything before I sent it. After completing the payment, Zelle showed that the user was not registered. At that point, a woman told me not to use Zelle because it "wasn't working." I was then told they would charge my card instead, and if the Zelle payment ever went through, they would refund me. About a week later, the Zelle payment did go through ($74). I went back to the salon that Saturday and spoke with the same woman. She remembered me and asked me to write down my information for a refund, but seemed rushed and quickly moved on. It's now Tuesday, and I still haven't received a refund, even after also submitting a request through Zelle. This is really disappointing because I thought I had found my go-to salon. Their work is great, but handling payments this way is not okay. Getting my nails done is a treat for me, and I can't afford to be charged twice. I truly hope they improve their payment process because they do great work. But as of now, this experience makes it hard to return.

I have been going to Jennifer for over 10 years. I would never go anywhere else. I used to live far from her, and I still travel to have her do my nails. I have acrylic nails french tip nails. She makes them thin and they look so real. I have referred many customers to her, as they literally stop me in the market, at work, wherever I go. It is hard to find someone that is so good, so clean, cares for what she does. She is a true artist! Not just a "nail person". She keeps up with all the latest fashion and designs, as well as products. She is friendly and truly FANTASTIC! I would stake my own reputation on her. I am an professional and my hands and nails must look 100% always, and they do! I do not have to have any fills for 3 weeks and even then, they look fresh and new. Go to Jennifer you will have no regrets! read more

Highly recommend Jennifer! My friend referred me to her and I drove all the way from Glendale and it was totally worth it. I needed gel nails put on and was skeptical at first. I've had gel nails put on at other nail salons and it looked so fake. Jennifer made them look natural and beautiful. I got so many compliments and it lasted for at least 3 weeks. If you are looking for quality service...go to Jennifer! read more
