Great job on my nails! I brought 2 clients here and we loved it. We all got gel manicure and pedicures.

Found Polished through Class Pass. I have had great manicures and pedicures there. Today I had awesome World Cup- inspired nails and Ari came through! He was patient and detail-oriented. *I do prefer going in the morning or on a weekday because they can get busy and loud on a Friday night. Parking is hard but there are lots close by. read more

Polished Nail Bar - Inspired by the black Mexico jersey - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I got my nails done here as a birthday treat since I don't get my nails done very often, so I was really looking forward to the experience. I arrived about 10 minutes early for my appointment, but my service didn't begin until about 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment. I understand that delays can happen, but there was very little communication about the wait. My nail tech was quiet, which I didn't mind at all. However, when I asked questions throughout my appointment, she either didn't respond or didn't acknowledge them, which made the experience feel uncomfortable. I originally wanted acrylic nails, but I was persuaded to get Gel-X instead because I was told they would last longer. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience. I wasn't planning on leaving a review, but after only one week, several of my nails are already lifting. For a $120 service, I expected much better quality and durability. At this point, they feel comparable to press-on nails. Overall, I'm disappointed because I spent a lot of money expecting a long-lasting, professional set, especially for a special occasion. I hope this feedback helps improve both the customer experience and the quality of the service. read more

Polished Nail Bar - Nail popped off after only 1 week - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I called ahead to ask how much a gel acrylic fill would cost and was quoted $60. When I checked out, I was told my total was $80.I was then informed there was an additional charge because my nails were 'long' and another fee for cuticle work. None of these extra charges were mentioned when I called beforehand. What was frustrating is that my nails are only long because they had grown out from my previous set, so i wasn't expecting an additional length fee. I also had my cuticle nicked during the service, which was uncomfortable and is still sore. The staff eventually reduced the total to $75 after I explained that I came in expecting to pay the price I was quoted, but the lack of pricing transparency was disappointing. I believe customers should be informed of all additional charges before the service begins. The nails look okay overall, but some of the shapes and lengths appear uneven. My main concern is the unexpected pricing and poor communication regarding the extra fees. (P.s john is the one who did my nails) read more

Polished Nail Bar - French tip gel x - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was in the area and needed a quick mani/pedi. Found this place on yelp. Pros: 1. Takes walk-ins 2. Prices are reasonable for basic mani ($20) and pedi ($35) 3. No hard upsells 4. Nail techs are friendly Cons: 1. The place can use a revamp. The template/folder for nail colors was quite dirty and falling apart. (See photo). The spa chair was stained and dirty. 2. There were some issues with the accuracy of the colors on the palette vs. actual colors. I had to pick different colors a few times, either because the nail colors didn't match what was in the bottle or it was not available. 3. I got my nails done on Monday, and my mani was already chipped on Wednesday. 4. After they painted my nails, I was left alone by myself. No one came back to check on my nails and whether I was ready to go. No disposable flip flops provided, and no one helped with my sandals either. So after about 15 minutes, I just got up to pay and left. 5. Additional charge when paying with a card read more

Amazing work and a super friendly staff. Got a classic French tip and it looks beautiful!

I had a nail appointment with Vivian for Gel X and she did a great job! She soaked them off and applied a fresh set within 1 hour. The price is comparable to other salons in the area. The cons are the location is sketchy so I will only go during the day, parking is crazy which is expected in DTLA and I don't remember if the tools were sterilized or if she uses the same tools on all of her customers without cleaning them. One last thing the salon wasn't the cleanest, like the floors needed to be swept, and she didn't use a clean towel, which had debris on it, after drilling and removing the set of nails that I came in with, which is not what I'm used to... Overall the customer service was great!! Vivian listened to what I wanted and I'm very happy with my nails. read more

Polished Nail Bar - Gel X short stiletto shape - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This nail SHOP (I won't even bother calling it a nail SALON because the professionalism is long gone) treats LOYAL customers -who have been with them for YEARS- like they are just another dollar in their pocket. -They are obviously charging high dollar prices while using the cheapest of products because your nails will not last for more than a week. -Also, they are unsanitary (but have the audacity to ask you to wash your hands while they don't even wash theirs) and the girl at the front desk is so desperate to have you add-on services so that even when they mess up your nails and have you to come back in to have them fixed, they STILL find a way to charge you. -September of last year, I tried getting in with the person that I normally go to (Tracy) bus since she was not there, they put me with a newer nail tech. I asked for a gel overlay on my real nails. The nail job was so bad that by the next day, my nails were so completely ugly, oddly shaped and peeling that I sent photos (see gold nails below) I didn't wanna where they had no choice but to tell me to come back in. They claimed that the gel overlay that I received was the wrong kind of gel and that I would have to pay $15 extra to have them fixed. So let me get this straight: YOUR NAIL TECH applied "the wrong" gel but I am responsible for paying for getting the "right" one AFTER spending additional money for the inconvenience of traveling back to have it fixed?? (MIND YOU, I travel by Uber/Lyft). December of last year, I had my nails done right before flying back home to Texas. The day that I had them done, they were rushing getting ready to close early for their Christmas party. So I had to correct Tracy several times for rushing, filing my nails down too short and changing the shape from what I normally get. I get that they had a Christmas party but that should not impact the quality of my nail service. My nails literally began to break the next day. Everyday they either peeled or continued to break so I messaged them and once again, they asked me to come back in. The problem is that I was out of town for two weeks and when I returned, they could not see me. I am a hairstylist and work in tv and film so I do not have the leisure to just pop back in to have mistakes that could have been prevented in the first place if they would just bother to CARE. -Needless to say, a couple of more weeks went by and I finally just asked to come back in to have them removed. Greedy ass at the front desk told me that there would be a charge to remove the shabby job that THEY did. No accountability. No integrity. JUST GREED. I will tell the world to steer clear of this place. I cannot wait until they get shut down...because mark my word: THEY WILL. YELP removed my original review claiming that I provided "promotional content", even after I updated the review to ensure that this was not the case. Deete it again and I will be posting again. They will NOT continue to get away with this. Also, be sure to read the rest of the reviews on here. I am NOT the only one. And to the POLISHED STAFF/MANAGEMENT: DO NOT RESPOND TO ME UNLESS YOU ARE READY TO GET READ FOR FILTH. I have time. read more

I have been coming here for years because the prices were good and so was the designs. The lady who owned it originally was so sweet and made sure the technicians were too. Once it was sold it went beyond downhill. Everyone is rude and overcharges for everything , pay before the service is even started and tip, will scream at you if you raise a concern. This time I had translate on because it has been obvious in the past when they are upset and talking about ladies getting their nails done. I am not allowed to post here as the words were so awful and appalling that they think it's ok to speak about anyone that way. The entire vibe of this place is hostile and aggressive and it's sad it's become like this. This was the neighborhood nail salon and was so hard to get an apt let alone a walk in and now it is empty with employees who clearly don't want to be here and treat you like garbage. Do not waste your energy and time Please. Please read the other reviews (real ones) not the "5 star" ones they pressured people on the way out to make. UPDATE Since management has decided to respond to only two specific issues with lies. Changing throughout your visit - color isn't what it's like on display on the nails, the filing and shape is wrong because your nail techs don't have any care in the world for customers. IS NOT WRONG. Appointment- simple. If you don't have time to do nails when a customer calls and you ask what they want , and design is mentioned? Don't tell them to come in. Can you address your nail techs talking terribly about customers and it's all caught on translate? I'm sure you wouldn't want those posted on yelp for other patrons/ potential customers to see.. but that wasn't addressed in your lengthy response essentially telling me to not come back. Which is the easy way out? It's a matter of time before this place shuts down for sanitary codes and violations. You guys are a disgrace and I pitty every single one of you who think it's okay to call customers names and slurs in a different language thinking it's okay because no one speaks your language. Absolutely DISGUSTING behavior. read more

The service was truly sensational, offering a consistently exceptional experience. Every time I visit, either Ivy or Vivian performs my manicure, and their work is invariably outstanding. The nail designs are creative and meticulously executed, and the engaging conversations make each appointment enjoyable.

Polished Nail Bar - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I arrived on time but was asked to wait approximately 20 minutes due to a scheduling issue. While I understand delays can happen, what was most concerning was the way the situation was handled. I was told people had appointments while I myself had an appointment as well and I was clear before I arrived. What time I needed to be seen and even ask what time I could be done there was clarification so I proceeded to book the appointment. There was no apology, and when I raised the concern respectfully, the receptionist responded in a dismissive and unprofessional manner. I was told, "If you don't want to get your nails done here anymore, you don't have to," which didn't feel appropriate or customer-focused. I did accept a $10 discount, but the overall experience left a negative impression. I value professionalism and basic courtesy, especially when clients are inconvenienced. I wanna say the nail Text that's in my nails they're great and I spent a lot of money on my nails and I'm a quality customer and it's just sad that Customer Service will allow you to not want to go to a place anymore and a yep review is not good and I don't even do reviews, but I had to cause that girl was very rude she was the receptionist at that shift during that shift and the scheduler. She was a big Asian girl with extremely heavy eye makeup like a liner and shadow at the top of her eye black.. This incident was 5-1-2026. Between 245 and 3:15 PM. read more

Booked a gel pedicure through ClassPass. I arrived 12 min past my appointment. They said they have a 10 min grace period and since I was past that by 2 min I lost out of my advance payment of $46. They wouldn't take me and told me too bad. Now take in to account this is a walk in not fancy nail salon. Ivy as rude and not helpful. I live in downtown and have visited them frequently. They aren't very nice but do a decent job and are close to my residence. They weren't busy and could have easily taken me. I also checked the availability on ClassPass and they are wide open with appointments. Take your business elsewhere to people that have a better sense of customer service. read more

Excellent service! Will be back next month! CK is the best! I love the pedicures. My feet always feel great leaving here.

I got a gel x manicure after doing some damage to my nails, and Polished did an amazing job!! I'm so happy with my vacation nails

Amazing experience!! Very efficient and always so nice! I've come here for the last year and always leave happy.

I got the pedicure service. I called in to book an appointment and Sabrina act like she didn't know who I was even though I booked 20 minutes before on the phone. Sabrina the receptionist was way too much with her up selling. She asked me twice did I want my nails done. No means No! Sabrina also consistently asked me to get a higher priced pedicure. I continued to tell her no. Sabrina seemed desperate for money. Sabrina told me she ask everyone to wash their hands before entering. A Caucasian entered did not ask her to wash her hands. She tried to say it was a mistake, but I know it was not. Also asked did I have a iPhone and asked in a shocked manner..so irrelevant. She came across as very biased. Sabrina told me to give pedicurist a tip. Even though it was not great, Thien did not even put lotion on my foot. Happy I will be visiting family in the East soon and will be getting services by Nail Boss. Nail Boss charge the same, but wayyy better pedicures and customer service! read more
