Really disappointed how my nails turned out , I came last week and as soon as I came home my nails are already coming off and they were super fragile and all of them started to come off as well . I called and told them what happened and asked for a refund but they refused to give me one , they said they can redo and give me a new set but respectfully I don't want a new set I just wanted my money back . So if your nails mess up at this place or anything they will not give you a refund . read more

Pauline's Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

Went in today, been going here for years, today was the worst experience ever. Waited 2 1/2 hours, Kevin the owner did a terrible job on a full set, left the nails thick and uneven, front underside of nail tip not filed, just left the way he cut them. Pedicure was done ok. After 4 hours they charged $110. Time to look for a new nail shop. read more

Kevin is the best! I don't mind waiting when I know his nails last me so long!! I've been doing my nails for 12 years and been to many salons and for the first time I found my place! Kevin's nails never lift on me! I can have a set last me 3-4 weeks before needing fills. Pictured is a fill** I've never had a nail tech leave my fills looking flawless especially because I only like French tips! Love this place also recommend any of the techs for pedicures read more

Pauline's Nails - Coffin French tips with Gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

According to Kevin the owner as well as his technicians if you get a regular manicure the polish only supposed to last 2-3 days. If you decide to get gel "allegedly" two weeks and that's not true either . He should enclosed this when you are deciding what to get . I believe the polish they use are watered down and old and this is why you get the end results of chipped nails after the second day. read more

Very happy with the service I always get here. Kevin has been doing my nails for a long time and I'm never disappointed. HAPPY CUSTOMER read more

Pauline's Nails - Nails by Kevin. He did an amazing job on my Halloween nails. I LOVE them. - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

I have to give praise to this amazing salon. I' have gone there off and on for years and had many positive experiences. Today, was the most special because they went above and beyond to provide service to my brother who is special needs. He was scared and refused to sit at the massage chair, so they provided excellent accommodations for him. At one point the girl who helped us sat on the floor to make sure she completed cutting his nails! I was so grateful! I had to take a photo! read more

I absolutely love this place!!! Michael is the one to go to. He takes his time and does exactly what I ask for. And the prices for doing my gnarly nails is so reasonable!! I give them 5 stars!!! read more

This place is back and open for business. This place has been closed since March of last year. You need to call for appointment to make sure they align with local COVID-19 guidelines. This place has incubated each pedicure service chair for safety. At this moment, they are only taking cash. read more

Pauline's Nails - Almond shape by Demi - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

I wanted to like this place.. I really did. My first experience here with Helen was great. I highly recommend her but my last time here wasn't so good. whoever the guy is that did my nails & initial color did a terrible job. The base polish was totally uneven & my nails are already chipping after two days. If I'm paying $40+ for a fill & color, I expect them to be flawless & perfect. Also, he nicked my fingers about a million times & kept getting up in the middle of doing my nails. I think I'm just going to drive back to my old nail tech. read more

Came to get my lashes done (first time ever) and was incredibly happy with the work Linda did. She asked what length lash I wanted but ended up choosing for me since I didn't know which one would be best. She suggested I go short but I expressed concern that they wouldn't be noticeable enough. She put a few in and showed them to me so that I could decide if I liked them or not. For me, short was definitely the way to go because I wanted make sure I could easily deal with them the first time around. My coworker went with a longer, more extravagant look and hers look great as well (and lasted 4 weeks!!!). Quality work for sure... 25 minutes later I came out looking like a whole different person (in a good way)! Hopefully these last at least a few weeks but even if they don't, $20 for lashes is a pretty amazing deal! I will definitely be back! Give this place a try but make an appointment first. I don't think they have a dedicated lash lady so if you're a walk-in, you'll have to wait along with everyone there getting their nails done. And this place gets busy!! Small parking lot in the front but lots more spots available behind the building. It is dark back there and smelled heavily of pot when I left at 8pm... Not necessarily a bad thing, just thought I'd mention it. read more

This is my second time coming to Pauline's and I'm very happy with my results. Lani did my manicure both visits and I couldn't be happier. She is very attentive and puts in effort towards her work. My job position requires constant use of my hands and the manicure gel holds up very well. All the employees are very friendly. I've had the luck of walking in during their slow foot traffic, but the wait would be worth it as well. I suggest calling ahead of time and confirming the availability, mention the service you'd like to get done as well. Definitely recommend. read more

I've been coming here since I was in high school off and on I'm now 55yrs young and the service & quality I get here is the best that's why I keep coming back, sometimes I get lucky & don't have to wait but other times the wait is a while but worth it read more

Please save the trip and do not come here. KEVIN (owner of the salon) is a very rude person and does not care about your appointment. He will make you wait more or tell you to come back later or some other day. It's also very small and dirty inside. I do not recommend this place. read more

Worst nail experience of my life.

Always very accommodating. Clean facility and they do very neat work. I've gone in with an appointment and without never had to wait long.

I was in the neighborhood waiting on a friend so I decided to try this place out and get my nails done. Nothing special, no shaping or gel - just a good ol regular full set. I was actually impressed with how thorough my nail tech Michael was. He did an amazing job from start to finish. If I'm ever in the area again and need my nails done, this is the spot I'm going. Thank you Michael, you left a great impression! read more

Pauline's Nails - Regular full set - no gel - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

I made an appointment for 3pm on a Sunday afternoon. I was not helped until 4:10pm. This is absurd and people who were walk ins were helped before me. I will not be coming back here ever again not only because they disregarded my appointment but because I don't think they are cleaning their tools either. The other nail salon I go to gives you your nail file and 4 sided buffer tool to take home and they put the metal tools in sanitizer immediately after using. This place put everything in a basket on their cart with other tools they didn't use on my feet. I wanted to give only one start but I am giving 2 because the woman who helped me was so sweet. Management needs some help here, don't bother coming read more

Nails by Ann! Came out perfect I think the best I've ever had my nails done!!! She makes no mistakes! I asked her for them to be shorter length since my job doesn't allow them to be too long and she did a perfect job! They came out so so beautiful and I'm happy I have a new favorite nail lady!! I'll be back soon! Thank you Ann your work is truly amazing!! read more

Pauline's Nails - Full set with gel polish and foil on one nail. Done by Lucy - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

I got gel nails removed and redone at this place. It was very clean and organized. Their attention was great, and they were helpful. Although their prices are higher than I'm used to, I still loved the service, which made it worth it. I came in around 2pm as a walk-in. It was fairly empty at that time. I would recommend coming in before 3pm. I even got 10% off my first visit. It was a pleasure coming in. read more

Pauline's Nails - Gel nails with 526 and 604. - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

Stopped by without an appointment on a slow Sunday afternoon and had someone working on my nails right away. The first guy, (yea, there was two) did my fill. When it was time for the polish, the second guy looks at my nails and trimmed down the nail bed again because it was thick and lumpy. Reason I'm giving them 3 stars is because I love how my polish turned out. read more

You get the service that you pay for! I'm always satisfied with my pedicures but they never follow through with accurate appointment times. There is no reason to make an appointment because they will take anyone who walks in before you !! I've walked out many times. They are all very nice but customer service is not in their priority list. read more

Pros: - Less than 15 minute wait on a Friday evening without appointment - Massage chairs - $16 spa pedicure I think is a good value - Polish dried evenly Cons: - Rough with the nail file and cuticle trimmer. Granted I don't get manicures on a regular basis, but is it supposed to feel like your fingertips are getting sanded off? I left with one bleeding cuticle and a couple others sore to the touch. - I chose 2 colors for my manicure. One of them looked a little darker than I expected, and I later realized the wrong color was brought out. - Chipped fingernail polish in a few days I'd return for the spa pedicure, but I'm reluctant to have another manicure. read more

Only one like one female nail tech (her name is Anne) has the skills to do intricate designs. I showed another male tech a design and asked if it something he can do, to which he responded "yes". The result was incredibly disappointing, I don't think I'll be coming back here unless I need a basic mani/pedi. read more

I don't know if you can see good but nails are done horribly I have a good review on here from like 2 years ago but I am deleting it. I asked the lady I believe her name is Lucy she's the first one when you walk in I believe she's #1 well I told her that my nails needed more paint and I have no idea what she said but I was in a hurry and left and also she took about 2 hours doing these ugly as nails. Never coming here again read more

Pauline's Nails - Very nice nail work - Nail Salons Near Me - Santa Fe Springs, California

This place is the worstttttttt with appointments. There is LITERALLY no point to making one. They tell you to call ahead if you want a certain person to do your nails. You call ahead, make your appointment, show up and they won't even be halfway done with the person they're working on. Okay, I can deal with that. I'll wait 15-20 minutes while they finish up. But TODAY? Today I showed up 5 minutes early for my 1pm appointment. She was finishing up with her customer, I'm thinking I'm next since I called ahead yesterday. NOPE. Big fat NOPE. The owner has her take someone else ahead of me, saying it will be fast only 20 minutes. Well, it's 1:55 and I JUST now got into the spa chair. ONE WHOLE HOUR. Such BS. Btw, the owner I speak of is so rude. If not for my favorite nail lady (I've been coming here for years) I would never come back. It's not her fault, I still love her but this place just doesn't understand basic business principles. Blah. Ok I'm done. read more

It's my first time here. I really liked how they did my pedicure. Lady took her time and was very thorough. Unfortunately, the lady that did my manicure was awful. She was rushing and therefore did a poor job. My nails are bubbled, have wrinkles and the clear nail polish wasn't cleaned off the edges properly. I will probably give this place a second chance since I really liked my pedicure. But I will most certainly avoid the person that did my mani (I'm sorry I don't remember the name). read more

I live down the street to this place and they always take a long ass time. It's not even worth making an appointment you'll still wait a while. Please save yourself the time and dont come here. Also make sure to explain what you want, I had acrylic nails on wanting then removed and I wanted a new set but they only removed them. I was already annoyed at this point never again am I coming here. read more

The Girls are all great! This review is more about the one guy there who has no regard for you or your time. You are merely a person he wants in the door. NOTHING MORE!! Been coming for a while and being in this industry I ALWAYS make an appointment and EVERY time I call to make sure my Girl is on time and EVERY time he says YES, just to get you there and of course I sit! Today I complained and WOW . . . If you have time to sit and wait this is the place for you! My poor manicurist just walked out to apologize. Poor Girl, I wish she worked somewhere else, this truly had nothing to do with her. She told him she needed more time and he couldn't care less. He wanted to make sure we were there but I sit still waiting for my daughter! read more

Located in a small (i mean small) strip mall on Telegraph right off of the 605 fwy - you'll find Pauline's nails. No worries though, there's a larger lot in the back. Pauline's nails has a row of tables to the right as you walk in and then a row of spa chairs to the left. The people at Pauline's are very nice and very accommodating to whatever you may need. They offer waxing - about $5 for eyebrow and I think $7 for lip. I believe a pedicure is about $12, but of course they charge extra for french tip. Regardless though, I'd say that Pauline's is fairly moderately priced especially compared to other nail shops down the street and in other neighborhoods. I live in Orange County and would go to Pauline's any day for the better pricing! Sidenote to people using credit cards - they charge $0.50. read more

I'm not a usual customer. I needed to get my gel manicure before getting away for the weekend and decided to walk in to this shop being that it's around the corner from my home. Tina did my gel manicure but I very disappointed. The gel wasn't polished evenly. It was lumpy and she didn't apply coats evenly upto the edge of my nails. My boyfriend pointed out all the defects without me having to tell him what a mess she did. Im not the type to complain, I just will never return. Aside from the horrific experience, I had to wait 1.5 hours to be helped. Price was high as well. I paid 25.00 when I usually pay 18.00 at my usual Tip to Toe on Firestone Blvd/Studerbaker. Now those people are awesome! read more
