Number One Nail Salon truly is number one. I've gone with my elderly mom and they always treat her with so much kindness and respect. The new location beside Skechers is clean, welcoming, and just as great as before. Men absolutely need pedicures too, and We, the gentleman who helped me, was amazing. After my pedicure and massage seating, my feet felt brand new. Great service, great value, and both appointments and walk-ins are welcomed. Highly recommended! read more

Number One Nails Salon - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Absolutely horrible. First of all, the place is a dump. Unclean, unprofessional, seems gross the minute you walk in. Holly is rude, aggressive, degrading, and nasty. She wouldn't give me her name at first, which is unprofessional in and of itself, and based on the reviews of people experiencing this same awful person, I can see why. The business card is a crossed out card of some other place. She also physically hurt my nails. Bumps all over the nail bed. Pain, rudeness about comforting her on it. Total chaos and terrible work. NOT worth whatever price you think this could be as a bargain. 0 stars, will never return. read more

Holly and Wee were so nice and hospitable! We got gel color on our fingers and regular on our toes. I got chrome and it turned out so good! They are so skilled at what they do, for an affordable price. My friend and I will be returning for sure! read more

I have been a customer of this nail salon for almost 7 years. Holly, the owner is friendly, funny and accommodating. You will love her! She pays attention to detail and works to please all customers. Her nail work is great. Her husband is also an expert nail tech and he's super funny too. They just moved to a new spot on Ventura Blvd. just west of Lindley Ave. Check them out. read more

Number One Nails Salon - Fresh mani - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'm sad that I have to update my review. I haven't been going here for almost a year now and periodically, I think back about the times I had getting my nails done there. At first, I thought the owner was funny and sarcastic, but then I realized he would constantly talk bad about his assistant to me (I believe her name was Julie) in front of her and customers, constantly degrading and embarrassing her. Saying that she's lazy and customers always complain on how she does pedicures... But I always loved her work. I had no complaints whatsoever about her and didn't think she was lazy. I told him a few times that it's not nice to talk bad about her like that, and especially in front of customers. I saw her with tears in her eyes a few times because of how he talks to her and about her. One day, I couldn't take it anymore and just walked out. I don't feel comfortable going back and being in that negative environment. I pray for the assistant, Julie, and hope she stays strong and finds another job so she doesn't have to feel degraded anymore. read more

great spot real professionals that understand the importance of customer care highly recommend this spot

Finally found a nail salon that I LOVE! The owner (a man) is amazing, hard working & the kindest nail salon worker I've ever met! They did a mani pedi FRENCH for only 45$!!! It's the only great quality salon with affordable prices unlike the majority of these salons in LA. Thank you so much to this place! read more

Number One Nails Salon - French manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have been having my acrylic nails cared for by Holly at #1 Nail Salon for over 4 years and I can't imagine going anywhere else in the neighborhood. She is so expert in doing my nails that they look good as new for 3-4 weeks later. The shop has a good assortment of nail colors and brands, and they also do gels. While you get your nails done, you can also pamper yourself with a pedicure in nice comfy chairs. Their prices are very reasonable too, which is a nice thing in this Encino/Tarzana market where everything seems to be expensive! read more

thank you Wee and Holly! super nice family business, and even though the boss jokes around, I've noticed some people in the comments take it a type of way .. i actually enjoy the commentary and love the communication in this salon! In most salons I've been to it's always extremely quiet, almost awkward, but I felt so open and like I could laugh in here. Thank you for the fun and awesome experience guys! (FYI I got GELX by Holly and wee did my toes, and the gelx stayed for 3.5 weeks whereas the toe polish stayed for 2.5! Really good for basic polish.) prices are also very reasonable, support more Small businesses like this! I've grown a newfound love for family owned Mom and pop shops like this. read more

I previously loved this place but the owner (Holly) treats people badly. She's super aggressive. I asked to wash my hand once because it was burning from the chemicals and she said no. I also asked if she had stickers once and she said we don't do art work here. A sticker is art work? Okay. read more

I love this nail salon. My sister and I were searching for a good nail salon for a while and just couldn't find a salon that was consistently good and reliable. Until we found Number One Nails, of course. We LOVE Holly and Wee! Not only are they friendly and welcoming, but their work is flawless. My sister and I have agreed that we will never go anywhere else. I am so grateful to go somewhere friendly and where they also do fantastic work. Do yourself a huge favor and truck on over to Number One Nails. You won't be sorry. read more

i was a little nervous walking into this salon after reading the reviews here, but i was proven wrong. once i did walk in the business was full, but they were quick and efficient while still being patient and alert towards their other customers. ive been coming here for 2 years now and ive never had any issues, i see a lot of the complaints are about holly and wii, but this is a close and family owned business and they're fun to laugh around with and talk to. im glad im able to not feel awkward and glued to my phone while getting my nails done, and if you want a fancy design, this isn't the place for you- but that doesnt mean theyre not great. this place might not be for everyone but every person ive recommended it to has had good reviews and theyre the only people ii trust to do my nails. i recommend either wii or holly. aside from all the negativity, holly has been doing my acrylics since the first time ive gone there, and even though she usually doesnt do long acrylics, she always makes an exception for me. even if ii come in past 7pm or want an earlier appointment due to work, wii will come out and open the shop for me and start on my nails before his wife comes and finishes them. for about an inch and a half nails, they last about 2-3 weeks with no breaking- and ii work 5/7 days a week. i usually get gel and if i don't do acrylic, the gel lasts me 3-4 weeks before chipping! 10/10 recommend coming here. call before coming in- even though walk-ins are available, they do tend to get busy often! read more

Not clean, not sanitized, not professional, and very bad quality of materials. The nails look worst than it was before visiting. Don't waste your time and money for that "salon". read more

I've been taking my girlfriend here for about 2 years now and love it! I usually don't get my nails done, but they are very efficient yet professional! I don't personally know how the nails work here, but if my girlfriend is happy I am happy! I take her in usually ever 3-4 weeks because the nails stay for that long, and it's very affordable. They just recently moved locations, and believe me and my girlfriend will be following them! Their old location was a bit older, (5225 Lindley Ave), but their new location is booming. 18145 Ventura blvd. Holly & Wi are my favorites, and have a great sense of humor. If you're looking for cost efficient, funny & good customer service, this is the place to go. So welcoming, thank you Holly & wi! read more

Love this place! recommend to everyone. Holly is my favorite she does good every time I come

Nail technician are kind and professional. It's quiet but I love the quietness. Great parking.

I cannot comprehend these were done at a nail salon. Never will I return. My nail shapes are uneven the paint job is mediocre and there is no apex and are very thin. Their pricing says $35 and up for full sets yet I ended up paying $60? How? 25$ for paint ? Now if the quality of nails was there I wouldn't mind paying $60 but I don't imagine these lasting more than two days. Highly recommend not going for acrylics read more

I love this place. Holly is the owner and does a magnificent job. I am extremely picky. Holly is the best. I highly recommend her. She always pays attention to detail. I do acrylic with gel on top. Holly does not make them too thin and she does not make them too thick. She is always right on. I love her and will never change. read more

I must say the guyy who did my nails did get me out in time as I needed to leaVe soon, and a great job on my nails but the customer service was rudely delivered. I had to pick out my color by choosing via polish bottle displayed on their wall. After choosing my color he asked, "do you know how this color looks?" As if he was trying to convince me to choose a different color?? "Yes I know how the color looks", I responded. From the beginning the first woman hAd a nasty attitude with no positivity in her to the point I had to ask, "what time do you close?" Because she presented herself as if she was trying to leave work ASAP. Their price is reasonable but their attitude doesn't match their company's name to a high standard. read more

This place is really poorly up kept. Very dirty and dusty. They provide cheap services for cheap prices, I had to come because my nail person cancelled last minute and I needed them done ASAP and my nail deposit wasn't gonna be returned for a few days so I came here, my nails looked cute for 2 days and they started looking pretty rough the 3rd day. There was 4 people working that day 3 girls 1 male they told me to sit down and I waited for a little bit then they brought a small bucket filled with Barely warm water with some soap. The lady who did my toes was gentle and nice and painted them pretty good with the exception of my big toe, (the paint at the very top was kinda messed up and I didn't notice till I got home later) I was facing the lady doing my toes because my legs had to be towards her the lady who did my nails was really aggressive and rough. She made me turn my upper half completely to do my nails while my feet were getting done. I have back issues from a car accident a month ago so it was really uncomfortable. Anyways she was really rough after she finished one had she would swat it away and aggressively grab the other, she Barely touched my cuticles causing them to look dry and cracky, she applied the acrylic very sparingly but it wasn't that bad, they're very thin but the style looks good and it looks really natural, after she very aggressively puts the nails on she asks me to sit at another chair and the male one starts to paint my nails, his paint job is subpar and super blochy but I don't notice till I'm staring at them after they dry in the car keep in mind I'm in a rush but I'm not at all rushing them. Also I was lighting a candle and the thumb caught on fire and melted in a second, I've burned my nails before but they always take a second to melt these ones light on fire and melted so fast within a second . I Probably won't be back and I was thinking that the whole time I was there . I tipped them still cause having my nails done made me feel good but tbh the lady who did my acrylic really needs to chill out. There was no need to be so aggressive with my hands i don't know what you we're watching on ur phone while you were doing it but if it upsets you that much maybe you shouldn't watch it while working? read more

We is a no nonsense, fun, and very talented nail artist. I always leave 100% satisfied with my color and overall nail quality. I went to a fancy, overpriced nail salon in studio city before finding him and I am blown away at how affordable the nail prices are here given the high high quality of the gel nails I get. The best part is my gels last for at least 3 weeks! read more

I used to bring the elderly gentleman I take care of here to get a manicure because of one person, Jenny. She was so sweet and nice and was amazingly compassionate towards him since he's blind and partially deaf. I overlooked everything wrong with this place because of her. But now since she's not working there anymore I can say that I will no longer be bringing him there. They are rude, mean, discriminatory and just plain disrespectful. The guy that works there is the worse one. One time when I brought Derek there he made me wait over an hour because he said I didn't have an appointment and let other people go before me. People who clearly had no appointment either but because I was with an elderly person who is blind he thought it was ok to do so. He kept telling Jenny in their language to take other customers. She just kept looking at me and saying I'm so sorry. When finally I said something he said ok ok you're next. The last time I went there I made sure to call and make an appointment first and the guy who is the one who almost always answers the phone told me to go in at 4pm. I got there and looked for Jenny only to be told she didn't work there anymore. I thought it sucked but I was already there so I might as well let someone else work on Derek. He made me wait 25mins even though I had made an appt. The lady who took care of us was so uninterested and just rushed through the whole thing. That was the last time I went there The place is dirty, the chairs and tables they use are old, they don't even wash their hands before working on a new customer and who knows if they sterilize their equipment. You might be saving a few bucks coming here but I personally would go somewhere a little more expensive if it means a better customer experience. read more

The the lady that answer the phone was very rude end of the phone don't want to listen losing customer !

Reading the extreme sided comments I was unsure about coming here. I must say I can deal with the 'hello' when the phone is answered....I cared more about the attention to detail on my manicure & pedicure. Holly did a detailed job on my gel manicure (great at getting my cuticles & filing how I like them). Jenny was also as detailed with my French pedicure. Glad I was t scared off by the negative comments. Mind you, this isn't as upscale as other nail salons, but the service & results outweighed that! read more

Avoid this place! I wanted to try a new place cause the lady who did my nails was gone. I was a walk in as soon as walk in I notice, the place is so dirty. Everyone had a really bad attitude. They were so rude. The lady who did my pedicure hurt me so bad, the way she cut my nails was so painful. Holly did my manicure and the way she filed and cleaned my nails was so ruff and fast. They both cut my nails too short and uneven. I mean yes they are cheap but it's not worth it. read more

i came to pick up my dry cleaning i saw this nail salon i needed some nail glue i had a nail poppin off she looked me in the eye and said we have no glue i ran out i asked to buy one not get one for free i was like you have a whole nail salon and no glue how interesting discrimination at its finest a lady walked in to do her nails the glue must of been on the way i guess they say stop asian hate but this lady obviously didn't like hispanics read more

I really wanted to love this place because it's on the way home. I came in on a wednesday morning right when they opened. I believe the owner was the one who was helping me. I told him I wanted gel nails and a pedi. I looked up the reviews and saw that the cost of this would be about $36 which is pretty much a steal since most places charged $40+ for gel manicure and a pedi. The owner was very nice, and talked to me throughout the whole procedure. It didn't feel like I needed to be awkwardly glued to my phone while someone worked on my nails. The gel stayed on pretty well, I would say more than three weeks but the polish turned yellow within the first three days! I originally asked for a nude/pink color for the gel but it turned out looking like a tan/yellow foundation shade. The pedicure was okay and lasted decently long but took a while to dry. Overall, for the price and the great service, I would try them out again. read more

Such nice people! I got my nails done here and it's so beautiful! I defiantly recommend coming here.
