Ok, so my first visit actually was in June of this year. About to take a little Cruise so had them done in a beautiful color. Loved it! Many compliments and sorry I didn't take a picture. Second visit, had mani pedi again, but change the color to a wonderful pale lavender. Absolutely stunning! Did I say it was a cat eye manicure? It was! So two weeks go bye, it's time for a redo. So then I go and today I came out with what I'm going to call is wicked green, again cat eye. Here's some pictures to show the lovely work quiet peaceful atmosphere easy parking and maybe a little pricey but well worth it. Give these lovely ladies a try. And by far try the cat eye for something a little spectacular and different.
Had such a great experience here today! I live down the street and had seen great reviews, so I decided to give them a try. I got a builder gel manicure with cat eye and a regular pedicure, and both turned out beautifully. Natalie and Kai were incredibly friendly and communicative throughout, and I really appreciated how gentle they were while still paying close attention to detail. The salon itself is clean, cute, and has a really welcoming vibe. I'll definitely be coming back!
I recently visited 3 Little Nails and had such a great experience! The new owner is super friendly, welcoming, and clearly cares about every detail. The salon feels fresh, clean, and cozy -- you can really tell they put love into making the place nice and relaxing. My nails turned out beautiful -- the shape, color, and design were perfect! The staff took their time, and I never felt rushed. You can feel the good energy from the new management -- everything feels more professional and warm. Highly recommend 3 Little Nails if you want great service, good vibes, and beautiful nails. I'll definitely be coming back!
Love this place under the new management! The nail tech was so nice and took her time to make sure everything was perfect. The design turned out amazing. 10/10 experience!
I went to this place on a Sunday morning without an app and I was very grateful that they took me in for a pedicure but boy do I regret it now. I'm not in a habit of writing bad reviews but this time I'm mad that on how the service was conducted. The lady was an older lady who at most didn't know how do cut nails. Instead of just cutting straight to prevent ingrown nail growth she ripped it. As many times I've gotten a pedicure this was the first time that it has happen. Once she was done she pored alcohol on it and it stung so bad that I wanted to yelled. She never reacted to my pain and just went on. Then to top it off as she finished polishing my nails instead of using a brush to clean up the polish that got on my skin she dipped her finger on the acetone and rub it off which just smudge the polish. I'm not happy and my toe looks swollen.
My friend and I decided to stop into this new nail salon that just opened up. Typically I'm a gel or regular polish type of girl... no muss, no fuss, but there were so many fun and unique options at 3 Little Nails that I got talked into trying a cat eye polish look. And I'm so glad I did! Natalie did my manicure and she was incredible. Super steady hand, so precise, and you can tell she's a total perfectionist in the best way. My nails came out flawless. Kai took care of my pedicure and was equally amazing. He has such a gentle touch and the perfect pressure during the foot and leg massage. Overall, my friend and I had an amazing experience. The salon was clean, relaxing, and full of great energy. We'll definitely be coming back!
We didn't have an appointment and was surprised it wasn't busy. I love my short nails and cute snow flakes. They were kind, professional and everything looks clean. I was surprised she asked if it hurt because most places don't and they just cut me. Not here she was gentle with my manicure. The place is small but decorated with a lot of inspiration.
We dropped in on Mother's Day for mani-pedi's! We had such a wonderful and positive experience! The inside was clean, aesthetic and peaceful! The massage chairs were heavenly! The nail tech and owner were so kind, helpful, professional and communicative! They took their time and were very meticulous. We felt so pampered! We will definitely be back! (Highly recommend Natalie!)
I had the worst experience at Exotic Nails in Montclair, and I honestly regret stepping foot in the place. I went in as a walk-in, asking for a simple gel manicure--something that should've been a quick and easy 40-minute session since I had nothing on my nails. I know I should have made an appointment at my regular spot, but time got the best of me and I thought it would be nice to try somewhere new. Unfortunately, it turned into a nightmare from the start. I specifically told the technician that my nails were a bit weak from a previous set and asked her to be gentle. Instead of taking care, she caused a huge cut on my middle finger. I was bleeding for a while, and it was painful, which, of course, no one wants when getting a manicure. Once the bleeding stopped, I thought maybe things would improve, but nope. When it came time to paint my nails, the color just wouldn't go on evenly. It looked like it needed a base or was just poor-quality polish, and the technician had zero control, painting outside of my nails, making it look sloppy and unprofessional. I know I have small nails, but I've never had this problem before at other salons. At that point, I just couldn't take it anymore and walked out in the middle of the appointment. I've had many gel manicures, and this was hands down the worst. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else.
Selena is amazing! Not only did she recreate the design I wanted from an online photo, but she also added her own creativity to it. I love my nails and have never gotten so many compliments on them. This will definitely be my go to nail salon.
If you want good service and your nails to be nice, DO NOT go to exotic nails. Had the worst experience yesterday and the nail tech/owner not only did not want to take accountability but she also blamed me as the customer for her lack of service. It's very disappointing to pay for a service and get horrible results but I am wrong as the customer for mentioning the unsatisfactory of my service. No need to say anything further; see pictures below. Ivy/Selena I saw your response. When you are blessed and highly favored, there is no need to be jealous. I have always been nice and kind and you are only showing YOUR character as a person and business owner to try and bring me down by your nasty words. Your words do not affect me in the least bit because I know who I am. You may have 500 photos but you have 25 reviews. As I mentioned in my text message yesterday, I am the one who told YOU I will no longer need your services. I could also really disparage your business by posting the nasty text messages you sent me but I am not going to do that because that's not who I am. I will always take the high road and instead of going that route, I choose to no longer patronize your business and blocked you. I wish you nothing but the best and when you have this type of attitude, good will ALWAYS happens. This will be my last response, as I had to speak my peace to your horrible response lol
Live coming here Selena always does an amazing job and service is great. Definitely recommend this place. They have lots of colors and designs to pick from. Very clean and great staff.
They open at 10 am but I went around 10:10 and they barely arrived. Nice clean place with AC. Seats were massage chair Natalie and Nhi was nice enough to just take me in even though they have two appointment customers right when they open. While they were waiting for those two customers to finish up, they were helping me first since I was already in the store but they prioritized the customers with appointment right when they walked in (very professional). I got a pedicure with gel ($43) and gel x manicure with gel ($55). It took around two hours (because I was a walk in customer), but I would say they are still the more affordable one around the area. Pricing was cheaper than a lot of surrounding places. I don't do this often, so I asked Natalie what color would look best with my white dress and she suggested the baby blue color. Super friendly and nice workers! Love this place! Text them instead of walking in for faster service. (626)-321-0278 Would definitely come back. If my nails broke off within a week or so, they're willing to fix it at a lower cost. If I remember correctly, it was $2 per nail? I think only within the week too. Great to know! Glad they offer this as well! You also get a stamp card! Mani pedi 4 times for 10% off. 8 times for 20%! Way to reward loyal customers! read more

I am so happy to have found Selena! I have been to many nail shops even to instagram famous nail artists and no one compares to Selena. My nails never break, they last 3-4 weeks and still look shiny the whole time. I'm a cashier and I have to touch a lot of money and lift things and still my nails look great. I get so many good complements and I love how close the shop is to my house. She has great prices and very easy to talk to. The shop is open 7 days a week too!!! Ps I've been coming to her for over 6 months now and the best days to come are mon-wed because it's not so busy. read more

This is my number one place to get my nails done! She does a great job, uses only the best and organic products and for an affordable price!!! I only get dipping powder and this place is the best regarding different colors and designs for dipping powder!!! Ask for Selena She's the owner. She's very friendly and accommodating! She always offers you a choice of beverage: hot tea, coffee, or water. She does take her TIME! I repeat if you're in a hurry then don't bother because she takes her time to make sure you leave her salon with your nails on POINT!! So Honestly I don't mind because I know my shape will be perfect and nails will be well worth the wait! SHE DOES NOT RUSH AT ALL! it can get busy but that's because everyone requests her! So YES I RECCOMMEND EXOTIC NAILS AND SPA! So give it a try, you can either walk in or make an appointment! read more
