Best nail technician ever! I recently started going to Zu and I'll be going to her for as long as she's around. Our appointments are always a pleasure and my nails never looked better. I highly recommend. read more

I had never had a Russian pedicure/nail correction before, and it was an amazing experience. Zu was incredibly thorough, gentle, and attentive throughout the entire appointment. I had been dealing with a lot of pain in both of my toenails, and by the end of the treatment, the pain was completely gone. Zu took the time to carefully address my concerns and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. I left feeling relieved, happy, and so much better than when I arrived. I highly recommend Zu to anyone looking for professional, high-quality foot and nail care. I will definitely be back! read more

I unfortunately had to leave my previous manicurist, who I absolutely loved! I was nervous to go on the hunt for another one, I came across Zu on Yelp, she had great reviews. I headed over to Instagram to check out her work and was ready to book my June appointments. -quick back story, I have been a "picker" my whole life , my mom thought I bit my nails but I would just pick the side and rip them off (eek). As I got older I would get acrylics to prevent me from picking them. Well a couple of years ago I had the worst acrylic experience of my life and my nail beds were ruined! It took a couple of years to get them back to "normal" (still a picker!) so the beginning of this year I decided I wanted to finally try and get my natural nails to grow out - found my previous girl, who was pretty far from me but well worth it, but with her distance and multiple price increases since January, it was just not in my budget as I love to be able to give a decent tip as well. So I kindly messaged her and told her how much I would miss her and went on my search and booked with Zu as I like to have my appointments ready every 3 weeks. Well Anxiety hit a week after my last appointment and I pulled off all the gel and picked my nails short (crying face). Since I already booked with Zu for summer frenchies I went back to see if I could edit my appointment but didn't find how and she was already booked for almost the whole month of June so I just left it and waited until my appt yesterday 6/9. At my appointment I was greeted kindly and since she was running a bit behind I interrupted her appt (so sorry!) and asked if I could pay with card or tap. In case I had to run to the bank (I know I should have researched this previously) she took Venmo or Zelle which I have so I sat and waited my turn. Not long after she was done and called me in. Welcomed me, offered a snack (I am a snacker but, anxiety, and I declined). Immediately Zu was very kind started getting conversation, had me choose my colors, let me discuss my short nails situation and showed her a different inspo and she said we can do that instead if I want. She put on a show, that I need to continue watching because I can't wait 3 weeks to find out what happens! Lol Anyway Long Story Short (hehe) she nailed the inspo pic on these tiny nails and I absolutely LOVE them! I cannot wait to continue my journey with her to grow out my nails again and I look forward to staying a client a very long time ! Super Bonus, she is only like 5-8 minutes away from me with amazing prices! AND she does pedicures! I no longer have to go to 2 separate salons to get a mani and pedi!! Thank you Zu! You are amazing! read more

Zu Beauty - Summer Ready! - Nail Technicians Near Me - Long Beach, California

20/20. It was my first time getting nails done with Zu and I will definitely return. For a month I have been walking around with over-filed brittle, sensitive, peeling nails. All thanks to a careless nail technician at essence nail in Irvine. My nail beds were so sensitive and painful that I did not want anyone touching them. My colleague recommended Zu and that is how I got to find out about her business. I booked a spot several weeks in advance and was counting down the days to get my nails fixed. Zu went above and beyond my expectations. My cuticles have never looked this good and I love how my hard gel turned out (first time trying out this material after years of getting gel-xtension). Zu is a true professional and artist, she is a master of her craft and is just a caring, personable individual. Get your spot booked on her calendar. You will not regret it. read more

I've been looking for a manicurist specializing in Russian manicures for quite some time, and finally came across Zu. Booking was very simple, she was responsive to my questions and I was able to get an appt quickly. The service was so attentive. Be prepared, Russian manicures do take longer than traditional manicures (about two hours) because of the level of attention and detail but this is the exact reason I prefer them. My hands feel so much better. Zu is so sweet & her work speaks for itself. I'll definitely be back. read more

I switched over to getting Russian manicures about 4 years ago. I loved them so much I would go to van nuys to get them done. After my son was born 2 years ago I stopped traveling so far for my mani/pedi and have been looking for a good nail tech ever since! I'm so happy I found Zu! Her work is meticulous, gentle, and she is close! I've found a new nail tech! read more

I had such a great experience getting a Russian manicure and pedicure! The attention to detail was incredible--my nails have never looked this clean and precise. Zu took their time to really perfect the shape and cuticle work, and it shows. Everything feels so smooth and polished, and the finish is flawless. Not only do my nails look amazing, but they also feel healthier and stronger. The whole process was relaxing, professional, and clearly done by someone who takes pride in their craft. I can already tell this will last much longer than a regular mani-pedi. Highly recommend if you're looking for a super clean, long-lasting, and elevated nail experience! read more

This was my first ever Russian manicure and I think it's so worth it!

I visited Zu for the first time on 9/21/2025 and from start to finish, she was amazing!
