I got a regular polish manicure. They did warn me that my nails may break and urged me to get gel, so it was partially on me. Further, edges were not well smoothed, there were MANY air bubbles . In addition, the woman that did my nails looked at the lengths and decided it was "good enough" (there was QUITE a visible difference). After four days, I had one nail cracked in the pink part, and 4 more additional broken nails. Due to how much she shaved off + breakage, here is my nail length (1 inch of natural nail that took 2 months to grow gone). Will not come back, or cheat on my nails looked artist again :( read more

I called ahead to get my nails and toes done and waited after arriving, only for the nail technician to start removing and filing off my French tip before telling me she could not do my nails. This was extremely unprofessional and unacceptable. I spent my time waiting just to be turned away after the service had already started. If you were unable to provide the service, that should have been communicated before touching my nails. I will be reporting this experience to the board because customers deserve better communication, professionalism, and respect for their time. read more

Really sweet crew, they fixed a nail I broke that day while visiting my fiance so I came back for a dip manicure and pedicure and they did a good job. No pics but they look great just wanted to acknowledge their good job! They seem to know their clients and neighbors well, refreshing in a city like L.A. read more

Called made an appointment. They took me about 10 minutes after as they were busy. The salon has a restroom, a waxing room, pedicure chairs with massage features, about 8 nail stations and it's sanitary. The only salon who ice seen openly using an autoclave to disinfect their tools. Went in for a gel x set and eyebrow waxing and was out in about an hour. The tech who did my nails was really kind I wish I could recall her name, but she did a great job. Cindy waxed me and I was very happy with my brows. Parking is available at meters out front and around the block. Limited free residential parking and a pay to park lot just behind the business. read more

10/10 I've been coming here for years. I recommend Anna for manicures . I've always been able to be seen. Even if they're super busy. No matter who you get you'll have an amazing experience. Highly suggest doing the massage chairs. read more

Awful. Front desk is rude. They charge you extra to sit in the massage chair vs a foldable chair with your feet in a bucket. They will look for any reason to charge more for something AND my gel nail chipped on the second day. I didn't even go back and ask for it to be fixed because it was such a poor experience. read more

Convenient location in Sawtelle, pretty good prices, but the price raised from the other menu photos on Yelp fyi. I needed a simple plain pedicure, it costed $20, the total costs an extra dollar if you use card. The nail tech was kind and did a good job. There wasn't too much hospitality otherwise. read more

I've been here a few times but this last visit I got fungus on two different nails under my hard gel manicure after only a week. I've been getting my nails done for years and this has never happened. I wouldn't recommend I would hate for this to happen to someone else! read more

I am so pleased that I found queen nails Victoria and Cindy are the best, they do a perfect gel X, my nails have looked beautiful in the past year that I've been going there. I just love the energy inside the salon, everybody is very energetic and positive and it's just a happy space to spend an hour or so getting your nails done. even the customers are friendlier than the place I used to go. read more

I thought this place was only ok but because the prices are cheaper than others in the area, I bumped it to 4 stars. I walked in around 3pm and got a gel manicure and a regular pedicure ($46). I was seen immediately and given a box of colors to choose from. One lady did my hands while another did my feet (wish I asked for their names!). They were fast and efficient. We didn't speak much to each other, which was totally fine! It took about an hour. I paid via credit card and left. This place is no frills, and their prices accordingly match it. Don't come here if you're looking for a super luxurious, personable, and relaxing experience, but if you just want your nails to look good and to be in and out, this is the place for you. read more

Queen Nails - Prices as of March 2022 - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was a walk in at this salon recently. I live in the area & decided to walk in for a trim/shiny buff. Victoria was super pleasant & professional. She was able to do the shiny buff/trim at a reasonable price. Victoria was very complimentary about the condition of my nails, which made me feel good!! :) :) I'll definitely be back, as it was really a good experience with Victoria. read more

Great quality for the price. You're not coming here for a luxurious perfect manicure but Victoria was very sweet and got my gel-x done in about an hour while also maintaining a good eye for detail. Nails have been on for almost 3 weeks now with no lifting, would definitely go back. read more

The staff is great owner is very unwelcoming and after coming here for 15 years I was treated so poorly today we're Victoria refused to service me any further and told me I wasn't welcome back all because my nail had bumps in the gel x process. This was due to the staff not allowing me to wash my hands after buffing my nails and filling. This is no way to be treated , very disappointed won't be coming back Do not wax here the owner double dips the sticks after it touched your skin . Very illegal I always see the owner and manager pouring acetone to the nail Polish which is actually very toxic. They do this so that your nail chips quickly and you return. The acetone acts as a paint thinner. Do your research guys read more

I got a gel manicure on 7/12 and this is what it looks like today, 7/14. I have been on a business trip so I've done no housework, barely been on my computer, etc. so I've arguably put less wear on them than usual. The manicure itself was very rushed and two cuticles were also completely bloodied on day one. On the other hand, I've had a couple good manicures here in the past too so moral of the story, the place is very hit or miss. If you do come here, my advice is to make note of a nail tech you like and only ask for that person and definitely make note of who you DON'T like and make sure you don't get that person. read more

Queen Nails - 2 days after gel mani - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Queen Nails has been a Westside gem for years. I don't know why it took me so long to get here! My friend has been a long-time customer and brought me one day. It's easy to make an appointment. They take you on time. No waiting! And the ladies always do a fantastic job. Mia and Tina, especially! Prices are reasonable, the salon is clean and they have quite a selection of gel colors. I can see why they always have a steady stream of clients! read more

I took Mom in today for our regular bi-weekly visit, but there was nothing "ordinary" about my nails today! I had a BIG request for Cindy. A client of mine came in with Insta-gorgeous nails and I wanted a new set of Gel-X in the same style. She professionally and gently removed my acrylics (while I was getting my great gel pedi in the spa chair) and then she proceeded to create the most stunning Winter Wonderland look ever! Even though the salon was super busy, every single nail artist was patient and kind towards all their clients, whether they were walk-ins or long time repeat customers. Thank you ladies! read more

I came here as a walk in and Kim did my pedicure and prepped my finger nails for my manicure. Kim was a delight! She was talking to me about her sons and was being overall very friendly. I loved her energy and I definitely felt welcomed by her. She did amazing. I loved my experience here. Regular Manicure and Pedicure was around $37 cash not including tip but $38 if paying with card. I heard one of them tell me that Gel Manicure and regular Pedicure was $50 something. And if I wanted Gel Mani & Gel Pedi it would've been $70 something. I got the regular mani and pedi but it looks amazing! :) read more

They do a great job with nails here. I've been coming here for the last 5 months or so, and i've been pleased every time--sometimes even shocked with how long the polish lasts on my nails. They do non-spa pedicures at these tables as well for a cheaper price and still the same quality. They put in a plastic covering for all pedicures, great for being sanitary! You can get a color change for $7, a manicure for $12, and a mani-pedi for $23. It's a steal in terms of getting your nails done for the quality they do. I use regular nail polish and it lasts usually about a full week without chipping at all (and I am very active). They use a gel top coat to finish it off without the UV radiation for drying it, which I think helps with not chipping. It is a pretty small nail salon, and not super clean given the building is older. They have 4 spa style seats and then 8-10ish tables for manicures. If you can go during the "working day" it is not busy, but after about 5pm or on the weekend it can be busy and there may be a 20 minute wait. I recommend calling and making an appointment ahead of time if you are going during busier hours. WAXING: They do have a room in the back for waxing. Very affordable pricing especially if you compare it to the specialized wax studios, it can be 50% less here, and they do a good job. Underarms are $10, and the tweeze anything left over. PARKING: There is metered parking out front and on the side street. There is also a public lot behind the salon that charges $1/hour. If you drive further down the side street there is free 2 hour parking by the apartments; however, read the signs because there is street sweeping somedays of the week. The employees are really sweet and if your meter is running out, they will go put money in for you! read more

Acrylic fill with gel polish. Victoria was able to squeeze me in and suggested a soft pink on top of the funny bunny color which I requested to better match the reference photo. Result was almost identical to the photo I showed them! read more

Queen Nails - Acrylic fill with gel polish -- pretty much identical to the reference photo :) - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Nails had dirt underneath them after they were finished, I told her and she cleaned them up, but overall this was one of the least thorough manicures I've ever had. She used silver nail polish instead of rhinestones even after I said I didn't mind that they wouldn't last long. It's just weird silver clusters on my nails now, not the look I was going for at all. I think they look sloppy and uneven. I really regret coming here today. 0 stars. I'm going home and getting the acetone out. read more

I have been coming here with my daughter as well as my mom for years now , however I will No more !!! They have become aggressively rude & just plain annoying!! I have not seen Victoria there for my last few visits , she is the only one person there that would smile & actually acknowledge you !! The other lady / I don't know her name but she sits in the front and answers the phones too is Just the rudest / unwelcoming person I have seen in a while now ... I figured there are many many other mail places and I would just take our business else where ... I just refuse to feel this way and be treated the way they treat their clients !!! read more

Absolutely loved this nail salon! You can tell that the place does good work because it was completely packed when I visited. All the nail technicians were so friendly. They are super efficient, but do amazing work too. Constantly checked in to see if I was satisfied/happy. I'm not really good at picking colors, so I just showed them an inspiration pic and they were able to nail it (pun intended :))! Furthermore, their prices were beyond reasonable. Try to bring cash if you can! I came with a bunch of girlfriends, and each girl loved their manicure/pedicure. Thanks Queen Nails for making my nails look so good! read more

You wont get a discount but your nails will look amazing! read more

I have been going here for years, their gel manicures last for 3-4 weeks, always quick and reasonably priced

Yesterday was my first time coming to this nail salon. Someone close recommended me this place and everyone there was nice and prices are reasonable. However, the quality was not what I expected. I got a gel manicure and pedicure but as soon as I left and got in my car, one of my nails was chipped. When I got home I saw that more of my nails were getting chipped. After all I was disappointed at the end of the day. Usually gel manicure's last a while if you take really good care of them and I was doing just that. read more

I've been wanting to find a different place as the quality of service is no longer worth the price here (the gel polish chips easily), but I was willing to give them another try when I learned that Tina works here and I was excited for the change! Sadly, today was the last day I will be coming. The cuticles on my left, middle finger were cut carelessly and some of the polish was not properly removed. They also now added a surcharge to pay via Venmo. I wasn't able to book Tina today but I recommend her, if you'll be giving them a try. read more
