This is a no frills salon, clean, efficient and gets the job done. They took me in on a last minute appt, kept the appt time and I was out with a clean mani/pedi in one hour. Seems like a small business and I love supporting these kind of shops. Don't go in expecting a spa-like experience and you won't be disappointed. read more

Poor quality of service & customer service When my niece and I walked in we had to wait for them to get done doing each other's nails When trying to pick my color I was rudely told to sit down I was asked if I wanted long or medium gel x , I requested to see the different nails to determine which length was best , the nail tech opened them and I asked if she could hold the diff sizes up because I had foil on my fingers (soaking my old gel x off) and she got an attitude and just closed the cases I was told it would be $5 to remove my nails (8 nails 2 were broken) , no problem Then was told it would be an additional $10 to clean my cuticles up , a service that is usually included when I get my nails.... I then decided to just have my nails removed because they weren't friendly and I felt it was excessive to pay $80 + whatever the gel polish fee for my nails My niece received a regular mani pedi w/ a Matte gel top coat which was $50 Once we checked out they charged $10 for the removal instead of $5 -not to mention that they didn't even properly remove the nails, there is still remnants of gelx nails on my nails (See pics) $60 total Overall the experience was awkward and uncomfortable and we didn't feel like they wanted to do our nails read more

I gave this place 5 stars 8 months ago. I'm not sure what happened here. The front staff called to ask if I could push my appointment back (I said I could). I sat waiting in an empty salon for 15 minutes before asking the front staff girl who was on her phone where the technician was and she just said "oh yeah, she's waxing someone." The person who helped me was fine but there was only one technician, the front staff was rude and I was just really disappointed. Sadly, won't be going back here. read more

Vivian did my nails and she did such an amazing job! I'll definitely be coming back. She did a great job at shaping and the design. Just a fair warning: I guess they've been a lot busier lately because of the holidays and when I went in for my appointment last night, a bunch of appts that had come in throughout the day were late & because they try to still get everyone in, everyone else's appointments got pushed back. While I was there one client left after waiting 20 min and another client was waiting to get a text (what I concluded from context clues) to come back and didn't get one until 2 hours later. read more

I called to ask pricing for gel x long. She told me $60 so I came in. I was charge $80 for a very basic set that honestly wasn't that great. I had to guide him on the shape and I'm not that happy about it. He charged me $10 for cutting cuticle which as you can see in the pics are not done well and I wasn't aware of being charged. When I paid I told him she told me $60 on the phone and he just laughed it off. I'm just overall disappointed. read more

A great quality salon very hard to find for Los Angeles something that isn't over $100 for a simple manicure guess what a FULL SET and extensions for $65 professional, clean, free drink menu boba and actual pedicure chairs instead of a bucket with water in it, every place I been to in La has had just a bucket with shallow water. This is a simple clean salon that is professional the work they do is good quality for the price you cannot beat it and on top of that complimentary drinks and good music playing the experience was the most pleasing I had that didn't cost over $200 I also want to note that they are FAST my husband got a manicure and clear gel they paid attention to detail and did not even take more than 30 minutes a full set I was in and out in about an hour I can't say if it is always like this on busy days of course if you need something simple this is the place to go for a relaxing and professional experience that is affordable read more

Looking for a new nail salon home, I tried this nail shop out twice. Both times I overlooked micro aggressions by killing certain nail techs with kindness and staying in my own self caring moment of joy. I feel like it is necessary to mention for anyone wanting insight into their personality. As for quality, the first time, I immediately noticed a few bubbles in my gel nails and noticed them chip within a week. I am familiar with nail salons and was hoping I had found a good one, so I thought I'd give them one more chance despite this. The next time I went, my gel nails had specks and bubbles in them. My nail tech worked so hard to attempt to remove them that, for time sake, I was willing to still offer a larger tip for the effort. My gel nails only lasted a week before FALLING off in strips. I made sure I cared for my nails with gloves and did not handle any chemicals directly..."Were their materials cheap?" Came to mind... That experience was enough for my not returning. This nail salon let me down. I'm still looking for a good nail salon in Sherman Oaks. I hope your experience will be better. You may have to overlook certain uncomfortable micro aggressions and disturbing nail quality. read more

RUN AWAY - don't walk!!!!!! I had gone to this place several times- happy with the service and it looked clean. Little did I know they don't properly sterilize their tools after using them. My finger got so infected (paronychia) after getting a mani pedi here bc the lady cut my finger, which I understand happens- no big deal...but it was a big deal bc their tools were not cleaned, as I mentioned. I had to see a hand surgeon, get half of my nail removed, go on 2 rounds of antibiotics and go back to the doctor on a weekly basis for the last 8 weeks and it's still not healed!!! I went in the shop to notify the owner so this doesn't happen to others- I wasn't looking for a refund or free mani. The women working said the owner would be in touch. The owner, Vivian, was and told me her lawyer would call me re: the large medical bill my finger required. Then she completely ghosted me and I never heard from her or her lawyer. If there was a zero star rating- I would give it. DON'T GO HERE- literally go anywhere else. Appearances can be deceiving- looks nice but is actually covered in bacteria. read more

I used to frequent this place a couple years ago and then I found another nail place in the area that I love. But I decided to come back and give this spot another chance and unfortunately I had a bad experience. Instead of soaking off my previous gel manicure, the technician used the machine to scrap it off. My nails underneath burned as she did this and now that all the gel is off, I can see that a layer of my nail was removed in the process. Because of this, my nails are really messed up. They are brittle, breaking, and hurting. I usually get gel done every 3 weeks and I haven't been in a long time to get another manicure because my nails are so brittle and keep breaking from the manicure I got at this salon. I also went with my sister and she is having the same experience after we went here. It is unfortunate because the salon is lovely inside but I won't be back again.

Hygiene of the process was questionable to me. Technician double dipped into scrubs and other products after touching my feet. After my service was done, they up charged me by $100. When I asked why, I was told my nails are medium length, therefore they charge $10 per finger. No one told me this during my service. I got plain nails done (booking was for hard gel), no design or anything extra, didn't even ask for a Russian manicure. Overall, this experience was not worth $250 before tip. The idea of a business performing services on you KNOWING they will charge higher than listed on their own booking system does not sit right with me. Word of advice to the owner: this place is so convenient yo my work, id have been my new regular spot. You just lost years worth of business over $100. To respond to the owners response: my booking was $150 for mani and pedi both. There was no discussion about any other services in person. I picked the color from the options I was presented and that's that. If your staff added services, those were not discussed with me. The lady that checked me out at the register even explained to me that the services were $100 more due to the "medium length" of my nails. Again, none of this was disclosed during the service. If that's the up charge your salon aims for, that's completely fine. But maybe disclose it to the customer and be open and honest. I felt robbed after checking out.

Unfortunately, they didn't perform the full treatment--they skipped the paraffin portion entirely--but still charged me full price. If a service isn't fully provided, customers shouldn't be charged as though it was. Between the lack of cleanliness, the poor-quality manicure, and being charged for a service that wasn't completely performed, I left feeling like I didn't receive what I paid for.

O Nail Spa

Located just off the freeway for your convenience inside a plaza with extra parking in the back…read more(front lot is kinda tiny), O Nail Spa has such a homey feel with the lamented floors, comfy couch and spacious layout. The spa definitely had a feminine touch to it, and I'm here for it with their fluffy lighting and pink undertones. I was greeted first thing thru the door. While looking for a color, Amy approached me to let me know which chair I'd be in. The communication was on par from start to finish. I called prior to coming in to ensure they'd be open, and available to take me on a Sunday evening. They graciously took me in with no wait in sight. My standard pedicure was $25 in the massage chair + tip. Amy, my nail technician was solid. She was super polite, courteous and personable. I picked a pink color that wasn't quite hitting right (too light), and she insisted to help me pick out the color to avoid me having to get up and look for the color myself. I wouldn't have minded at all. Considering the fact that I'd just gotten done with my cuticles being removed, my feet were still damp. Taking that into consideration definitely felt welcoming. I can't front, it's a little hot up in here. But, it is summertime in the valley 0_o. Four solid stars because they still do their thing up in here. They've gotta hella color options, 3 manicure x pedicure services to choose from & they're polite.

About 2 months ago I decided to come back because I remember loving them so much. First time back, my nails were amazing! Last for over a month. They didn't lift or anything....shout out Ellen! I should've stuck with Ellen, because I came back a second time, and less than 2 weeks later one of the nails started peeling off (I get biogel) and that's never happened. I went to get my nail fixed and a day later a bubble started to form. Then the next day to top layer of another nail just popped off and now during class and I'm just sitting there another nail started peeling off! I called, and I wasn't mean at all, asked how they can rectify this since it's never happened before and I was told "go to another salon". Totally fine, I will, but the customer service sucks! Ellen is amazing though!

ZERO stars if Yelp allowed it…read more I started going to Zen Nail Bar because it's right around the corner from my house. They've always been disorganized and nearly impossible to reach by phone, but they did a good job on my nails, so I kept going out of convenience. The last time I tried to make an appointment, I called repeatedly for THREE DAYS with no answer. I finally had to physically drive over, park, and walk inside just to make an appointment. When I politely explained that I had been trying to reach them for days, the woman working there was incredibly rude and actually told me there must be something wrong with MY PHONE. So I left a completely fair Yelp review. I even said they did a great job on nails -- my complaint was that good luck getting an appointment when nobody answers the phone. Instead of simply apologizing, the owner responded defensively and essentially accused me of being dishonest. Had the response been, "We're sorry you had trouble reaching us, we'll work on that," I genuinely would have happily updated my review. Well, today confirmed everything I needed to know. I called to make an appointment and was told they were "so busy" that they couldn't fit me in today. I asked about tomorrow and was told they weren't sure they could fit me in then either. That seemed strange, especially given my previous experience, so after yoga I told a couple friends what happened. One of them said, "Let me call and see." She called the SAME salon, on the SAME day, shortly after I had been told they were too busy to accommodate me. They offered her an appointment for 2:00 PM TODAY. So apparently there was availability -- just not for me. If a business wants to refuse service to a customer because they didn't like an honest Yelp review, that tells you everything you need to know about how they handle criticism and customer service. I didn't lie about them, insult their work, or make anything up. I described my actual experience -- including complimenting the quality of their nail services -- and apparently that was enough to get me blacklisted. The irony is incredible: my original review was about how difficult it was to get an appointment. Their response was to deny the problem, treat me rudely, and then apparently refuse me an appointment while offering one to someone else minutes later. There are far too many nail salons in Los Angeles with talented technicians AND basic professionalism to deal with this. Customer service matters. How you treat people when they have a criticism matters even more. I would not spend a dollar here.

This place is so centrally located on a busy cross street of Moorpark and Van Nuys where it is always a hustle to get through. But I finally find a down time to check it out. I wish I hadn't waited this long because the parking situation is a breeze as they give you free hour parking with validation. They didn't have a wait and the space was very expansive. One of the largest spaces I've seen especially because they have an upstairs and a grand downstairs that you're used to seeing from the street level as you driveby on your regular commute. All I can say is there service was impeccable and I loved the gel nails and the pedicure that I got. They had all my favorite color schemes and that's all that I can ask for.

This is an updated review to my first time 5 star review. Unfortunately I returned to this salon…read morelast Wednesday and was not particularly happy with the standard polish colors available, the colors and bottles seemed old and outdated and hard to get to as they were high above a client sitting in a chair and the shop people did nothing to help select a color that I couldn't reach. The person doing my toes never once had a smile on her face - I paid extra for her to get rid of callouses and she barely scrubbed my feet. The person "Diane" doing my nails overly soaked my finger s and a week later they are still messed up it's as if my fingers were submerged in water for i2 hours- I am still feeling the effects and my fingers are all peeling like I have super glue stuck to them- not to mention the manicure was already chipped not even 24 hours later. I wanted to love this place. I'm a big tipper and am sorry I left them such big tips and won't be returning
