I have pretty ugly toes, but somehow every time I come here they manage to beautify my ugly toes! They have many stations so they can serve a good amount of people at a time. Their spa pedicures always come with a scrub which smells like mandarin oranges and peaches and make my feet look so smooth and soft. They finish with a cuticle oil so I always leave and my toes look great! I am apprehensive with getting pedicures done because in the past I ALWAYS end up getting ingrown toenail's on the sides because they usually cut that area and cut it wrong, but not here I never had to worry about leaving with ingrown after Ao I give them 10 stars if I could just for that alone. They take their time when giving the massage portion to make sure you are feeling good. read more

I Recently got a Gel French Tip manicure ($27) and French tip regular pedicure ($27). I really enjoyed my experience considering it was my first indoor nail experience in months. There's many dividers and space in between clients. The salon is very clean, well-kept, and updated with nice seating. It made the experience from comfy and safe. Was very satisfied with the results of my nails. I was very apprehensive about getting French Tip, but glad I did it with Pearls Nails. My manicurist spent so much time double checking if the white tip was even and they looked so great after. (I forgot to ask for her name ) After one week later , my gel nails are still in great condition. (See photos attached) read more

Pearl Nails - Regular Gel Mani after removing Gel extensions I had for nearly a month. - Nail Salons Near Me - Rosemead, California

Loved my experience yesterday evening! Everyone was very pleasant and they are being very safe and precautious! I had an appointment for a full set with Katie and she was amazing. Very friendly and very meticulous. She made sure to check my nails and make sure they we're all even more than 5 times! I appreciate that so much. She made sure to ask me multiple times if I liked how they were coming out. She was very friendly and I love my set very much. $37 for tapered square. Number 120 in the book is the color, not gel. And I did get my cuticles cut. read more

Always make an appointment before coming here, this place is forever packed; otherwise you'll need to wait for at least 30 mins or more. Usually, I called them like an hour before to make sure I got the spot. I just experienced the SPA gel mani + regular pedi, (6 dollars for the gel design, 45 dollars in total) The spa chair was so much comfortable than other chairs here, at least I didn't need to twist my body for an hour like I did before. I would give gel mani a 4-star, they did their job well just like the picture I showed them; however, I noticed a problem that is not all of them know how to remove dead skin properly, and some of them could only do simple designs. Regular pedi was not bad, a lil messy but still way better than the way I did it to myself. Overall, this is not the prettiest salon but I'm happy to find this place with such a reasonable price! I will keep coming back! Note: For the design fee, French tips are like $3+, two marbles design are like $6+, some simple line design are $6-8 or so, and it can be up to $15+ if you're looking for full hands design. As to negative nail art, I asked it once but they told me it's too difficult so I never got the chance to do it here. read more

They are efficient and they will get your nails done on time. However if you don't come here often I'd recommend you confirm the price of what you're getting upfront. I had called to ask and was quoted $24 for gel nails but after everything was done, my total was $34. I understood vietnamese and had overheard the manicurist asking the owner how much they should charge me and owner said an additional $10 for the glitter. So something to be aware because if it's your first time, you may feel you were treated unfairly because of the increased prices. Another reason for the 3 star is I noticed the manicurists quality of services really varies. A group of us got our nails done but one of our nails were already chipping and color deteriorating after a week whereas others are fine. We got the same designs too. So beware of who you get. Do your research before you go. read more

There's so many technicians that you're likely to get seated as soon as you walk in. Whether that tech is good or not is a roll of the dice though. I've walked in a few times over the years out of convenience since I'm already in the plaza, but I've never been 100% satisfied. If you speak up, they'll do what they can to make you happy, but it's possible that you didn't get one of the best techs they have. I lean towards gel mani-pedis with the occasional finger designs. These usually run me around $60. My gel manicure always starts lifting before the week is over. Luckily, I only get my nails done a couple days before a special occasion so it doesn't matter, but for the price, I expect better. I'm pretty sure they offer touch ups if your mani-pedi messes up within a certain time frame, but I shouldn't even have to go back that soon. I think they're decent if you need them for last minute nail prep, but they're too pricey for how long they'll last. read more

This is like the Costco of your nail needs. It is always packed and busy here but you can almost always score a same day appointment. The quality and service really depends on who you get. My personal favorite is Jessica. She is very friendly and does a great job with designs. Their prices are very reasonable compared to other locations. I would come herre again when i feel like pampering myself. They accept venmo! Way to go 21st century means! But bring cash for tips! read more

I come here often because everyone I get is always pretty nice. Katie did my gel manicure and Lee did my gel pedicure and they were both so kind and gentle! I had told them I was going to Hawaii so I wanted something tropical and Katie totally got my vision of what I wanted. I had an in grown nail and it was bothering me but Lee did such an amazing job and was so gentle that it didn't hurt at all. They both were making me feel comfortable and kept a friendly conversation going. I will be going to them again next time. This location does get really busy so I recommend going early. read more

Terrible nail shop. Planned to take my partner for pedicure service and was quoted a different price over the phone. Of course, they charged me more than what they told me at the time of booking. Make sure you talk to the lady, not be guy because they are not on the same page and will give you a different price. The worst thing is they removed the ingrown nail so aggressively, now my partner's big toe is infected. I mean do they even sterilize their stuff? I can't tell and will never know. This business is dishonest and its uncleanliness is just not acceptable. What was meant to be a treat now became a medical issue instead. read more

Pearl Nails - Infected big toe - Nail Salons Near Me - Rosemead, California

Came here on Friday around 5:30 after calling to make a same day appointment and boy was it packed. Every station had a person. Waited 5-10 minutes and was seated at the pedicure station. I wanted to like this place but it was a miss for a few reasons. They didn't put cuticle softener before cutting around the cuticles. My toes are still in pain from cutting around the cuticles and this has never happened before. I added paraffin for my pedicure for an additional $7 and the paraffin wax was super hot. It was burning my feet. It was actually hurting. Yes, it is wax but I've had it before and it was not burning my soles. It was pretty painful. When the paraffin is setting, I got a massage for my legs for $10 and the lady is not good at massages. She basically rubbed lotion on my legs, no pressure at all. Also, her nails were super sharp and it was digging into my leg and feet whenever she wanted to apply pressure. It was not enjoyable at all. Basically I paid $17 in upgraded to give me pain. Basic pedicure was $22. read more

Second time coming here, definitely call in before coming to make an appointment. Both times when I called for an appointment, they sat me down right away when I arrived. They do accept card for a small fee m, I believe an extra $1. Cash is more preferred here. Both times I got a pedi, this place is extremely affordable. This time I got both mani and pedi. Both with tip still came out to under $100. But their prices do fluctuate depending on length, gel or regular polish, design, etc. This visit was extremely satisfying, my nail tech (Rose) that did my pedi definitely took her time with cleaning my toes and shaping them. She also took her time with my gel polish, and cleaning up the sides before putting them under the light. Cindy did my mani, it was a little questionable. After she did tips and filed me down she got up to get more supplies. I took a good look at my nails before she started applying the acrylic. I noticed one of my tips were definitely, extremely, totally at a 70 degrees angle.. she came back and started applying on my other hand. After she did 2 nails I buttered up the courage to tell her one of my nails were crooked. She seemed "surprised" and looked at it. Cindy cut off some of the tip and tried ripping it off. Then realized it wasn't a good idea and had me soak it off like you're suppose to. She re-applied another tip and I said thank you, she didn't say sorry. If I didn't say anything Cindy would have left my nail like that. In the end everything came out well. Long story short, although this place is cheap and affordable! Don't be afraid of saying something you don't like before it's too late. They'll fix any issues if you say something. You're still paying for a service. And all the nail techs are sweet here. read more

It's been exactly 10 days since my gel mani and pedicure. And it hasn't shown too much wear and tear. The gel on my nails is starting to "separate" from the tip of the nail and some edges- but nothing that is snagging on items etc. the color is still intact on ALL NAILS (hands and feet) so that is a PLUS! I'm pretty sure I could hold out another week or so before getting them redone... read more

I was really nervous about trying a new salon (I've had a lot of bad experiences and hadn't found one I particularly loved), but I'm really happy with my experience here! I came at 4pm on Friday with no appt and waited maybe 15-20 minutes before I was helped. This salon isn't super luxurious or anything but all the nail artists seem to be pretty legit. Crystal did my almond shaped acrylics and they are on point! She really got the shape down and was done in about an hour and a half. She was really sweet too. I will update how well they last and what not but so far I think I'll definitely be back! My total for full set almond acrylic + pedicure + cut cuticles was $68. I believe this is about the going price. read more

this nail salon has been my go-to for a while! I usually get a pedicure here about every 3 weeks (a regular one is $22 btw, w/ extra charges for things like sea salt, callous removals, etc. I believe each employee has a chart w/ the exact pricings if needed). if you're looking for someone that's really detail-oriented and takes their time, I suggest asking for Lee. she was super careful when applying my polish and serviced me in a patient manner! I felt really comfortable in the salon, however, its relatively busy nature can be initially a bit overwhelming covid protocols: all staff currently wears masks :D appointments: I highly recommend making an appointment ahead of time, as they can get swamped on days you wouldn't even expect. usually making one even on the day of is fine, I called on a Wednesday morning and got an appt for that afternoon. read more

The nail technicians are trying their best but need better training/practices. They drill off your gel polish, that is not good for your nails. It was painful. Their ombré technique is not the best. I've only gotten ombré once before, at a different place. They used their finger and it looked smooth. Here they used 2 different sponges and it looked bumpy. Had to put glitter on top to cover the weird bump texture. The nail technician was lovely and I still wanted to leave her a tip but paid with card. I asked the cashier if I could put tip on the card. He said yes, and clicked a few buttons. When he flipped it over, I was able to see that he had clicked "no tip", before it disappeared. All he did was charge me more! read more

Today was my first time. I needed a place that would accommodate me right away because I have a tight schedule. They got me in and I was lucky enough to get Hailey. I absolutely loved her, and Im certain I've found my girl. I wasn't in pain once and she did exactly what I wanted and was just so gentle. I'm not a small talker so I loved that I watched my show on my phone and really got my me time. I already made my fill appointment . read more

My previous experience with a specific nail technician really turned me away from this place but since then I've tried them a few times and I'm a fan. I usually go in for a gel manicure and take whoever they give me and it's been a consistently good experience. $21 for gel manicure. $1 more if you pay with card. Make an appointment or you can end up waiting for a bit if they are busy. read more

Best experience with Hailey on mani, she's quick & neat. My gel lasted a good 4 weeks without cracking or peeling. Although I requested her this most recent time because it was busy, I got another lady and one week in my gel is already peeling. But $45 for a gel mani+regular pedi is great! Best to make an appointment even though person requested is not guaranteed & there still is a possible wait time even with an appointment. read more

Pretty pricey for what I got done. I asked to remove an old set of acrylics I got with gel from a previous salon, but instead I got charge $46 for repair plus dip powder, $1 charge for paying with card, and $7 for a 15% tip. I don't understand what 'repair' I got done, I still have my old acrylics on, and she convince me to do dip powder because it's more healthier on my nails. I wanted natural and instead of being shown the selection of colors and choose, they push pink on me and told me it was natural. My nails look great, but it wasn't what I asked and what I wanted. I just simply wanted to remove my old acrylics, not add more gel or whatever on top of it. I called before coming and they told me it was busy but to come around 6:45 to 7:00, which is their closing time. I called twice to make sure if I can come in near closing time and they said they were busy but I was already driving there. Once I arrived at 6:15, I was expecting to wait but i got seated right away...so.... The lady that helped me in the front was walking around during closing time, and was nice enough to check up. I felt like they just did a rush job because they wanted to get out of there. The lady that did my nails was frustrated in the beginning because she couldn't take off my acrylics, but I thought she was in the process of removing them since she had me dip my fingers into a bowl of hot alcohol and tried to removed them with one acrylic, but nope. On the bright side, she was gentle on me though and made sure she didn't cut me and was avoiding to. Overall, pricey but friendly staff that didnt do what I asked for. read more

Pearl Nails - Natural pink marble gel x nails by Tammy - Nail Salons Near Me - Rosemead, California

I was very disappointed about my visit to Pearl Nails last week. As a disclaimer, I RARELY ever get my nails done, so I am not familiar with how the removal process is - in the past, I have only gotten regular manicure/pedicures, which doesn't last very long and gets removed with basic acetone nail polish remover. A few weeks prior, I had gotten a dip powder manicure done at a different nail salon. This was the first time I had done dip powder, and it was done on my actual fingernails (not acrylics). It had been about 3-4 weeks and it was starting to lift, so I decided to go to Pearl Nails to get the dip removed and have my nails done with gel polish. To remove my dip powder, the nail technician started off by taking a piece of plastic acrylic nail, forcefully shoved it under the lifting dip powder, and proceeded to pull the dip powder from my nail. For the parts that she could not lift with the acrylic plastic, which was the majority of the polish/everywhere that wasn't the edge, she used a nail clipper to grab onto the dip and forcefully cut it off my nail. Because this was my first-time getting dip powder removed, I am unfamiliar with the process. Is this normal? I asked her twice and she confirmed this is how it was supposed to be done, but as I was watching her it seemed very damaging to my nails. After I got home, I searched online and it stated dip powder nails should be filed/buffed and then soaked in acetone... I have included pictures of what my nails looked like post dip powder removal, where it can be visibly seen that layers of my fingernails were removed during this process. After the forceful removal of the dip powder, my nails were unevenly textured and terrible to look at. It was never buffed, filed, smoothed out, or soaked in acetone - the nail technician just had me soak my fingertips in warm water for a few minutes prior to her putting the base coat and gel nail polish onto my nails. As she was painting them, if the texture was too uneven or noticeable, she literally just took the nail clipper and grabbed the uneven chunk and cut it off, then continued to paint on the gel polish. As I looked at other customers and technicians, I noticed that they were getting their nails buffed and smoothed out... I am not sure if my technician was in a rush, or if I was supposed to specifically ask for the nail to be smoothed out, or if this is just how it normally gets done, maybe it was because I had the dip done at a different salon... I am not sure. If this is the normal removal process and also normal for 0 prep prior to a manicure, then this review can be ignored. As previously stated, I rarely get my nails done so am unsure of what the "norm" is. I still give the place 2 stars because they were able to seat me quickly and I did like the look of my final manicure. Because I requested ombre nails, there were many coats of the gel polish, and at the final look you couldn't tell my base nail was unevenly textured. However, I was very disappointed with the removal process, as well as the minimal prep that was done on my nails prior to my manicure. I am worried about the damage done to my nails and how long it'll take to grow out/be healthy again. read more

I went back a few more times after and I had a complete different experience. think the issue I had in the beginning was to just go with with anybody that was available.

They also accept Venmo now which makes it so much easier. read more

My grandmother was turning 75. My sisters and I decided to treat her to a girl's day as our birthday gift to her. We wanted to find an establishment that not only knew how to do nails, but one where the service was also excellent. After much research, we found Pearl Nail. The experience was amazing! When you first walk in, you will notice it is packed. I recommend booking an appointment. Since we scheduled ahead of time, we only had to wait a couple minutes. The woman at the front who I believe is the owner, really understands how to provide great customer service. She told us the prices upfront and doubled check to make sure that we were happy with what we got. What really impressed me was how they handled the situation with my grandmother. She had an idea for a design she wanted, however, her nails were too short in length. The owner took the time to come up with a new design that was similar to the one that she wanted. We each had different manicurist and they were all very attentive and kind. This was our first visit to Pearl Nails and we will definitely be coming back! read more

Pearl Nails - #33 - Nail Salons Near Me - Rosemead, California

They've moved to the new location! It's now a few stores down from where it used to be. Instead of in the corner of the building, they are half way to the Indian restaurant near the BofA atm. The new location is bigger with 8 spa chairs, 11 mani stations & a bigger private room for waxing. Love the new space. It's very inviting & looks very clean. The only thing is, it still gets cramped with all the customers. They now only provide spa Pedi services, no more regular pedis at the mani station. I like the spa chairs for the massage aspect & overall comfort. The nail techs are the same people that provide the great service & quality of work. Everyone is wonderful. I've only had 1 bad experience but they immediately rectified the situation. I always make appointments with my fave ladies & we have the best time chatting & they are so detail oriented and take their time to make sure you have a great experience! They get really busy, so I highly recommend making an appointment. They have many color choices as they carry most brands including Essie, OPI & DND (matching gel & polish colors). The parking in the plaza can get very full as they share the lot with many other retailers including Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Target, Wing Stop & The Habit. However, it's also great to have all these when you have to run errands or waiting for your appointment. Definitely recommended. read more

My first experience with Pearl Nails was great. No appointment needed. Plenty of techs here. No wait. I'm pretty they renovated this place 2 years ago? I remember walking past by before. My tech was Paula, she was amazing. She's gentle & took her time. She didn't rush and would make sure I was happy with my choice of color. I came in for a pedi but because I really like the way Paula service, I also added in Callus Remove & Gel. Total was $35 for everything. I am so glad I finally found a local place where service is A1. I haven't had my hands done but I am looking forward for my next time. Really is a great, clean, & friendly service here. read more

I've been to topline nail salon which is pretty popular imo, these 2 places are very similar to each other but this place is a lot better, chiller and at an affordable price than the other place (in my opinion). Even though they're always busy but I don't feel the rush or all over the place. I give 5 stars to my manicurist, I suddenly forgot her name I believe she's cindy? (Station 3). She took her time to get my nail done nicely. Walked in and been told the wait was at least 30' but they sit me down after around 20'. The guy at the reception isn't that friendly tho but honestly idc. The place is bright and clean. Everything is organized. First time here and I already referred this place to my friend. read more

I made an appointment with Katie for 3pm and came in around 2:50. I waited until 3:20 before Katie got to me (she was with another client). I didn't mind because it is Friday and it was super packed. I think management and organization needs to be worked on. When I walked in, the owner just told me to go on a chair until I said "wait I have an appointment with Katie specifically and my mom with Kanny." Anyways back to Katie, she was super gentle and accommodating. At first I was a little worried because my index finger was helllllllaaa crooked from the rest of the nails, but thankfully she listened to my concerns and fixed it! The shape I got was coffin and it's arguably the hardest to get right so I was happy that Katie took her time and was patient with my nails. I don't think the shape is perfect, but it's not bad. Plus it was only $38 (without tip)! And she's literally the only nail tech I've had who didn't cut me... so props to her. As for Kanny, my mom said she was super gentle and precise! read more

I loveeee pearl nails! Not only do they have the best prices in SGV, but they have awesome customer service.. I've been coming here for so long because it's very close to me and they never fail to deliver! My nails are always on point! And their prices are beyond reasonable... Diana is the sweetest! She's very kind hearted and does her best! They recently moved to a new location which is only a few stores down from their old one..(right next to the bank) a lot bigger and more modernize... I am always so pleased with their service!! Parking lot is pretty spacious although the plaza does get a bit hectic during busy hours.. I find it best to go in early on a weekday because everyone has work and since I'm only down the street I'm able to get it out of the way before work! I mean how convenient is that... And to top off their grand opening on their new location they are giving away massage ointment as a token of appreciation to their customers! If you haven't gotten your nails done here.. you should schedule an appointment now!!! read more
