This place is nice but the work that they do is not that great! Sloppy for my taste but I went there because it's super close to my house and I thought it was convenient. I was SUPER wrong. I'd rather take a drive elsewhere and be satisfied. read more

The place is nice and My nails turned out great. My mom got her hair done and it was awful.it was supposed to be ombre gray but it turned out red?????? It wasn't even ombre. The lady who did it was rushing and I think her name was Wendy. She said she was tired. I was like all mad and she said she tried I was like wow. I think the only thing they are good at are doing nails. read more

Vida Spa - Acrylic nails - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

The worst salon I've been to. They kept talking in a different language, laughing and looking at me. All because I was asking questions about pricing and my options. They charged me $32 for gel toes. They didn't do a good job. The gel was spilling over to my toes. The inside of the place is nice but the employees are terrible. Update: still a crappy place read more

I used to live in the valley and this was always my spot. I recently moved to Alhambra and I still make the commute for one reason only. VIVIAN! She's amazing. Very polite and never disappoints. I'm super picky when I get my full set done and I'm always satisfied with her work. I've tried closer locations to me but no where else seems to meet my expectations. read more

Vida Spa - Always more than satisfied with my nails. Vivian rocks! - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

Had a mani/pedi done 2 days ago. I usually go to a nail salon in eagle rock but I didn't feel like driving from sylmar. My girlfriend told me about this place because she would go there sometimes to get her nails done. I called to make an appointment and I got there 10 mins before my appt time. I just for about 10 mins before vivian started to work on my acrylic take off. It didn't hurt and I was surprised she didn't need to soak them. She persuaded me to get one of their packages and me being an optimistic, I just decided on the $55 package they had to offer. I like the sea salt scrub and the 15 min foot massage. The package also included a 15 min shoulder massage with hot stone but I didn't even get hot stones. I would definitely come back but I still prefer my nail salon that I usually go to all the way in eagle rock. Friendly staff and professional work. read more

First time visiting, recommended by my sister in law. When I walked in I was greeted. Asked for a gel manicure. They were done by the owner. Don't remember her name but all in all it was good. Was in and out as hoped for. $25.00 and $5 tip. Everything was good. Will go back definitely. read more

Vida Spa - My own nails in gel. $25.00 - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

Its not often that I decide to write a review instantly after I leave (or in the parking lot...like im doing right this minute!) BUT I just got the most amazing deep massage ever imagined! I have gotten deep massages before but I must say, this deep massage that I just received was mind blowing!! Patty, who performed the deep massage on me, really did an amazing job. She absolutely got into the nick-and-crannies that are so obviously full of tension in my body. She used her magical hands to releave my body from so much tension and smooth out all my rough edges. She used amazing scents to give me a more complimentary feel and she went above and beyond when it came to making my feel relaxed. I would highly suggest that if youre in the mood for a massage that you give Patty a try. Patty....Shes devine!! Did I also mention that she did the threading on my eyebrows? She fixed the horrible job that they did over at the BrowBar in Panorama City. I didnt breakout and she trimmed my eye brows so beautifully! In all, just give Patty a try...she's the best here and ill definitely be going back! Thanks Patty for your genuine and hard work! You spent a full hour on me without walking out of the room or taking your hands off of me. You absolutely deserved your tip. read more

My first time at Vida I called an hour before closing and they said to come on by. The lady that did my nails was not rushed she did an amazing mani. Wish I caught her name. My gel mani came out great I would come here again. read more

Went in there to buy a gift card for my wife's birthday and the young lady in the reception was really rude I was there for a minute and then she answered a call and took her time with the call to schedule an appointment after she ended the call she past three people ahead of me so I just walked out. read more

I got my nails done yesterday by Tiffany and she's my new favorite. She takes her time and she's a perfectionist. She's also super friendly and makes sure you're happy. She's new there but she really knows what she's doing. Also, the receptionist, Jessica is a sweetheart. If you come here, ask for Tiffany. read more

Vida Spa - She did exactly what I wanted and I'm in love. - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

This place never fails to satisfy! I got a new girl named Vicky and she did an amazing job, I highly recommend her. She took her time even when it was 30 minutes til closing and didn't care she still filed and shaped my nails nicely and didn't make me feel like I was being rushed. Vicky made sure she gave me what I wanted and kept wanting to make sure I was satisfied and I appreciate her being so considerate. Great experience with her!! read more

Vida Spa - Nails done by Vicky - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

First & last time there ‍ So I called a few minutes before, and the girl made sure I got helped as soon as I got there because I had to leave by a certain time. The fact latinas work there was pretty cool, the girl that did my mani was pretty good but she said she'd put something so I wouldn't get bubbles, yet I still have bubbles on my gel mani such a bummer. As for my pedicure the worst! Tony as they said his name was did a horrible job, you can see the over coat where he tries to over coat the polish & my nails are shaped crooked. He said "your toe nails go side ways" as usual he was an Asian who always claim that, my toe nail doesn't go sideways.. it's the way he filed my toe nails side ways! So annoyed, I told the girl & she offered for someone to fix it but I had no time or else I would because I could have probably done a better job myself. Never going back there again! read more

Needed a quick place to go since i was around the area. First off only giving it a 2 star because of the environment and the staff was pretty nice BUT quality sucks. Got a gel mani, & two days later my nails were already chipped. I NEVER do reviews but i'm a really dissatisfied customer. I called in to report the incident but honestly due to work & school i have no time to stop by & they seemed to want me to walk in at their convenience. When i asked for another date, the girl seemed bothered so honestly i don't have time to deal with this. I shouldn't even be calling two days later to schedule a follow up in the first place. It's now been less than a week & they continue to chip more, looks horrible !! Never coming again ! read more

Martha does an amazing job everything time she gives me a manicure and pedicure. They offer great service for the customers

They have best service. I always leave satisfied. The staff is always nice and take good care of me and my girls

This place is not a good place. I had a pedicure and it was done very poorly. Would not recommend this place to anyone. My daughter also had a bad experience they charged her extra money for using 2 colors? No one charges more for just using a different color on two nails. The eye lash extensions are also done very bad. Please do not get eye lash extensions here. They are a rip off read more

I have no clue what the negative reviews are talking about! Jenny did my mani/pedi. She was great! Kelsie trimmed my hair as a walk in! At 5pm! I will be coming back! I wasn't pressured to use cash, I added a couple services onto my pedicure and they said no problem! Ask for jenny for nails, massage or facial. Ask for Kelsie for hair, they are both awesome. read more

Have been here several times but never been too impressed, my husband got me a gift card so I decided I would get something simple. Once there I asked the lady if they could do acrylics with a gel overlay, the color selection was beautiful, the lady made sure I was happy with the lenght and shape, I also got a pedi, they were super busy and it felt a bit rushed but I still got good service. read more

Vida Spa - Full set square Matte by Tiffany - Nail Salons Near Me - San Fernando, California

I WOULD GIVE 0 STARS IF I COULD! Two days ago I went for the first time to get a full set and my nails took AT LEAST 5 hours to dry, the nail polish was lumpy, and ugly. So i went back the next day to get them redone and they left my nails SUPER THIN!! Due to my nails being so thin, two nails broke as i was putting in a shirt! I went back today and explained what happened.. then Vivian in other words called me a liar and blamed the lumpiness on my matte top coat. She then charged me $3 and left them EVEN MORE thin then they were already. About 5 min ago another nail broke as i was putting a pair of sweats!! I have always had acrylics and i have never broke nor struggled so much with them! This is absolutely the worst place to get your acrylics done, save your money and go someplace else read more

The salon is always super clean and tidy. The service is very fast I highly recommend coming here.

Went in here for a fill, I've never gotten a fill before but I really needed to get good looking nails for that night. Now the fill was horrible it was bumpy and already lifting it was a distant very disappointed in the work. read more

We decided to get our nails done on a Sunday at 5, and to find a place that was even open was a challenge. When we called Vida is was close to 6, and we had little hope of having it be open, they waited for us, and although I've passed by this place on multiple ocassions, I assumed it would be more expensive considering the decor, and how everything in San Fernando tends to be overpriced. I got gel nails, which included a massage, which was nice, and they only charged $ 25 I believe, which is a really great deal! They didn't rush us out either, which I feel like any other place would try to get us out the door as soon as possible to clock out read more

This rating is for the hairstylist/eyebrows waxer Anet. I've never had my nails done here or my hair but Anet gets down with my eyebrows. Once I found her I only go to her. Just tell her what you want and she will do it. I personally like my eyebrows thick and natural looking still with shape and she never disappoints me. I always get compliments when I get my eyebrows done. I don't trust anyone with my eyebrows anymore but her. Thanks Anet! read more

I went here for the first time about 3 weeks ago. Vivian did my Brazilian wax. I was very afraid since I hadn't had one in years. She made me feel very comfortable and took the time to take care of me. I will definitely be going back. Thank you read more

I got my husband a pedicure from here for Father's Day, what a mistake. It was his first pedicure, they were too rough and made his feet bleed, then they told him he had to order a service from the menu, even though I had already booked his service. He did not know what to book, so it ended up costing an additional $40. They clearly like to take advantage of new customers. Save your money and dont go here. read more

Good costumer service but i don't think my nail tech knew how to properly do acrylics she used a large brush and ended up getting it on my skin. She shaped them so badly one of nails broke two days later. The nail polishes were also very clearly old. Wouldn't recommend coming here. I would also keep in mind while reading reviews that they give people discounts to those who leave good reviews. read more

People where real nice but got a pedicure and didn't last It started to chip so not happy about that

This place is really lovely. They are all really friendly and they provide a variety of services. They accept walk-ins or appointments. The front desk lady was really wonderful and she always checks in to make sure you are doing okay or if you need something else. It's inexpensive if you're looking for just a regular mani-pedi with no gel. read more

Came here for a pedicure. They did a great job until it was closing it. She rushed the last couple and didn't even wait until my toes dried before putting on my sandals and sending me out the door. Very unprofessional. read more

I love the service,price,and most of the massage people,.the front reception is fun,I would say,it can be a bit NOISY but..girl like the chat..cannot blame them. the owner is super respectful,and parking is free been going 8 yrs..so yes. go. quality Chinese/thai massage.HARD not fake Swedish!!! read more

This place is awful. Wendy, wendy, wendy, where the hell do I begin with her bs!!! Just scroll down if you want the "hair stylist's" review. I got married this week so I went in 3x in one week, one to get my eyebrows and upper lip threaded and my under arms waxed, second to get a full set and pedi, third (on my wedding day) to get my hair curled. Vicky did my pedi and she was soooo sweet and social. She's just a great overall employee who really makes you feel welcomed and did a great job. Vivian (the owner) rushed through my nails because she had other appts (one call in and another set appt) which pissed me off since I made an appt a week ago. I expect to not be rushed and have a good job done. I got white tips and they look like shit, they're uneven and aren't how I asked her to do them...even showed her a picture!!! So wedding day is here and my appt is at 3. I go and WENDY is not there yet. She comes 10 minutes late with her two kids (maybe 7 & 9). She starts blow drying my hair then stops to feed her kids -__- Throughout the entire appt she is yelling in my ear to her kids to tell them to behave, which they don't. Then the receptionist starts asking her questions about extensions which apparently Wendy cannot multi task and finds the need to stop working and stand there and chat. It is now 3:30 and she has not made a single curl. She then walks away to grab her phone to show the receptionist her website and examples of extensions. Wtf?!!?!!!!?!! I am your client and you are treating me like shit!! Her son decides to sit in front of me and play on her phone while kicking my chair and my leg. I tell her if she could ask him to move because he's kicking me. What does this idiot do??? She nods and says ok then says nothing!! At the end my hair looked like shit, it wasn't what I had asked for either. I don't understand why these people don't listen to their clients. I showed her pics of how I wanted the front and the back. Oh and then for some reason she makes the executive decision of adding a braid to my hair which I never even asked for because I DID NOT want it. I told her to stop as soon as I noticed the braid forming. She is so unprofessional and her work is not even good. I was fuming by the time she showed me the mirror. How is she allowed to have any clients with that type of behavior!!!!!!! She ruined my day! I needed to be out by 4 and left at 4:30 because she was late and kept stopping for unnecessary reasons. I could've done the type of curls she did on me at home. Why I choose here? Because I did not want to stress out doing my own hair. I figured, why not be pampered on my big day? Big f**king mistake. Seriously avoid this hair stylist!!!!! read more

I think my review is higher than most on here because I haven't had my nails done here yet and I don't get my cooch waxed so please keep in mind that as of now this is just on getting my brows waxed and getting prices. I went here while going a few doors down to Manny's for a Brazilian Blowout. I have needed to get my brows done for awhile and it looked like a nice salon so I went in since I was in the area. For $9 (new client here) I got my brows tweezed by Vivian. I don't get waxing done since I am on Retin A, and I never got a good shape from threading (I need my brows on the thinner side with a arch). My brows came out thinner that I expected them to be, but my main problem was that she made my left eyebrow much shorter than the right one. They do seem to always try to get as much people coming in for money than to focus on you. The phone rang around 3x and she kept running to answer it. Annoying, but for $9 I will take that. They also won't take credit cards unless you are charging over $10 and of course American Express isn't taken (sucks for me). I would come back to this place, but definitely not for eyebrow styling. They charge $50 for acne facials which Vivian said is almost an hour (seems to be the average price for these kinds of facials so may not be worth the trip for me). They also seem to have a lot of packages. If you go in Mon-Wed from 10-3 pedicures and manicures are $3 off so you can get a pedicure for $15 and $6 for callus removal. Likewise the almost hour long acne facial becomes $45 which during those hours would be the cheapest acne facial for the money that I have found because usually they are $1 per minute. Pretty good deal. During that time you can also get 10% off facials and massages. I will also return for their #2 package which is a manicure, pedicure, paraffin waxing treatment, callus removal, and a 15 hot stone foot massage for $45. They still have up their summer special banner so I assume they are still honoring those prices. A package that seems to be pretty popular for $121 includes a 1hr European facial with eye treatment, 1 hour Swedish massage with hot stone, and a manicure and pedicure with paraffin waxing treatment. Something like that would probably go for $146 at similar places unless they offer a package too. Bottom line, this isn't a day spa. If you want to feel pampered on a budget and don't mind not talking to whoever is working on you (I hate small talk and would rather be left alone to be honest), this is a good place. Pros- 1. Open daily (yay Sunday hours) 2. Great prices especially on packages 3. No fake "pretend we are friends" chit chat 4. Lots of places walking distance they don't seem "ghetto" (it's in a cute part of San Fernando and this is a Jew from a middle class family talking) from hair salons, coffee shops, and restaurants Cons- 1. Parking a little bit of a pain in the ass (street parking), but there is a lot a few minutes away 2. Can feel like a rush job depending on what time you are there 3. They aren't exactly fluent in English 4. Brows sucked- In fairness I don't think any nail salon has given be great brows. If you need an actual eyebrow styling and not eyebrow trim (not sure how to make this any clearer), go to a high end salon (I say this as a cheap person)or one where the person doing it doesn't do nails there too. You want a person who actually is there specifically doing certain things. FYI TO YELPERS- Make your reviews less "witty" and more helpful by listing prices. It is a bit annoying because most people try to be funny and "cool" than to actual give practical information. read more

This place gets ONE star. For the sea salt scrub. Besides that WARNING!!! the lady who did my mani pedi improperly removed the gel off my nails by filing it down and yanking it off very aggressively. She literally BROKE my nail in HALF. I kindly asked them to fix it. Then I get my bill and they had the NERVE to CHARGE ME to FIX the NAIL THEY BROKE! The manager or owner said it broke naturally. Funny because I've had gel thousands of times and this has never happened! PS. I had to help remove the rest of the gel since this lady left so much behind and the AC barely cools the place, it was hot! STAY AWAY!!!! read more
