They do a good job but this is my second time told 5 minutes. An hour later still wAiting. A lady wAlked i. Said in a hurry got taken right away. Stay away if you dont have 3 hours for a pedi and a gel fill. They should just be honest about the wait read more

Loved my girl! She was so sweet and squeezed me in for a super fast gel manicure right before they closed! Such a doll!!

I have been coming here for 3 years now, nowhere else. And they know ke well, but my only dilemma is that they still don't remember the one thing that bothers me. I get a pedicure to actually get one not to stick my feet in for 25 minutes waiting. I will sit in the chair but i dont want to put my feet in the water till someone comes to attend to me. Mean while my feet get pruney. I tell them every time why I don't want my feet in the water , yet every time I come in they exclaim to me to do so. But other than that I'm happy with the service they give me. They use disposable everything, Very clean. I'd give 5 stars if they weren't such laggers. So for now 4 stars it is. read more

I too love Helen, and the entire gang for that matter! The others are correct, Helen does great on the eye brows. I am a long distance runner and I get terrible calluses on my feet the girls help me so much; and my feet look pretty when I leave and, the color lasts almost forever :) They have moves two doors down...check it out! read more

California nails is the best!! Sophia does my nails, Betty does my feet and Helen is the queen of wax.....all 3 are perfection every time! I go there weekly and it always feels like I'm visiting my family.....everyone is friendly and always welcoming. Their facility is clean with new comfy massage manicure chairs. I can't say enough good about this place!!! read more

They we're super rude to me. The lady that painted my nail did a horrible job it look like I did it my self and my pedicure didn't last for a week. Super disappointed read more

Went in for eyebrow wax and she did amazing! Will definitely return! Thank you so much for the great and timely service

Absolutely the cleanest nail salon I have been to. They dispose all pumice and nail files and sanitized they instruments on every customer. I come here to get my nails done with Sophia and Anna and they both are amazing . Helen does a great job on Brazilian too. I would be definitely coming back and referring my friends and family here read more

I will never go here again..very unfortunate. Service was good at first but my mani was done in 5 mins? ..c'mon 5 mins? I went for a mani pedi to relax after a long day of work , And this was the outcome. Oh and when I made a comment about a bubble in the manicure.. Apparently it was my nails fault. Not there fault wtf ? Get real $50 bucks down the drain for an uneven gel mani and pedi read more

I had been a loyal customer for 13+ yrs until now, when I experienced the most disgusting customer service, that's why I decided that I will never step foot in this salon ever again. I have been a regular there for many many years and always leave great tips but that's not enough for two faced workers. They fake smile in your face and say such bad things about you in their language. If you don't have genuine customer service towards your paying customers that pay your bills then don't work in that kind of field. I'm extremely disappointed and will never go there again. If you wanna pay for verbal abuse then you should go to california nails. read more

This is a family ran nail salon .... Helen is a waxing specialist fast and accurate. Sophia is a special girl that has skills when it comes to nails and dad keeps the place running like a well oiled machine. read more

Sophia and Alina is the best! I've been so happy and satisfied every single time I come. They dispose all their buffers pumice etc. Helen does an amazing job on my body wax! Would recommend anyone here read more

Really like this shop compared to others I've been to (at least 5-6) in this area. They are very personable, clean, have a good layout. Love their spa chairs, and the flat screen t.v. very relaxing. I feel safe with the parking, and clients that come here. Sanitation is a biggie for me, and thus far it's been that. I only gave four stars, because it doesn't seem like they have experience designs, don't give a receipt with the price breakdown, and I feel it is a bit pricey (or I'm just cheap) I get mani/pedi with arcrylic fill, and regular paint cost me $47. So if that is a standard price...forgive me. They get 5 stars:) read more

I went to California nails yesterday on a recommendation from a friend, there was a small wait, they have lined tubs for those that want extra safety for their toes! They also use an autoclave to disinfect their equipment...(very big deal) I decided on getting gels after talking to another happy customer Connie... and then I met Sophia, lovely girl, she did my gel mani/pedi.. I am thrilled she did a great job they look fabulous :) I will be going back! read more

I have been getting my nails done by someone in this family now for 20 years. John is the best! My nails look fabulous and they last for weeks. He is very meticulous and no one does a better job in all of this area. They are lovely people, his wife is lovely and the girls are lovely. You can not go wrong getting your nails done here....I have porcelain nails, but they also do great pedicures. The best!!!!! read more

i have been comming here for years, Helen is amazing for waxing eyebrows. i always get complimented on my eyebrows thanks to helen. Amy is amazing for pedicure specialty for hang nails. i recomend her any day. always make a appointment. walk in are welcom but dont go on a busy day, read more

I try to refrain from posting negative reviews as things are usually minimal and fixable. However, I was very disappointed with the work done at this nail shop. It was my first time and I really regret not having checked the reviews before. The staff was overall nice and accommodating and that's the only reason for the one star. The finishing product was a complete different story. The gentleman who did my full set put globs of acrylic powder on my nail. It got to the point where it was dripping off. The lady who applied the polish did such a sloppy job, a two year old would've done better. I didn't complain cuz I knew the polish would wash off in the shower. Minimal problems, again. The real issue is that only a week later my index finger nail fell off. Just the tip. The next day my thumb nail followed. It was disheartening so I decided to shorten the others to match. As soon as the file touched my nail it flew off. Again from the tip. I was literally able to pull the tips off. Overall negative experience and I wouldn't want anyone experiencing the same thing. read more

Ok so I'm on a writing review binge today and this place was on my list lol. Came here for the first time the other day just on a whim because I was having my car serviced near by. Anyway walked in and there was really no wait more than likely because of the time of day I went and clean atmosphere. Simply decorated but new technology i.e. Spa chairs. Good selection of nail polish colors. I was greeted by the male nail tech John who did my fill and fixed a nail. I felt like treating myself so I decided to get a pedicure also and I have not gotten a pedicure in about 6months because other nail shops I have had horrible experiences with places not being clean and reusing equipment that hasn't been sanitized. Which caused me to get athletes foot at one point and an ingrown toe nail! I have NEVER had any issues with my feet and they are low maintenance. So when I saw this place doing another ladies pedicure they use ALL NEW scrubber for your feet, nail file etc....so I felt safe getting a pedicure and decided to give them a chance. The lady gave a great pedicure everything was fresh, clean and NEW!!!! Then she actually paid detail to polishing my toes and so did the nail tech John who did a great job. For my pedicure she even massaged my feet and rubbed the lotion in unlike some of these places. John and I talked for about 30 mins while my nails and toes dried while I wait for a call to pick up my car. Ohh and since I didn't have sandals one of the ladies let me have her extra sandals she had tucked away great customer service and sterile place!!! read more

I've been a customer for about 10 years now! Helen, Sophia, Mary and the whole staff never disappoint. I always leave satisfied!

I usually go to honey nails and I love them. They do a great job in a timely manner I'm usually in and out within 45 minutes or until manicure and pedicure. California nails did a beautiful job I'm very happy with the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the work. The price was better however I was there an hour and 10 minutes in the chair. I will go here I again if I have the time as they are right next to my office nice job. read more

Gel nails not done nicely. Paint all over fingers and gel polish chunks left under nails. When I let her know she made it seem like it was totally okay and to leave it. It's been a week and it's lifting and it looks awful! I showed the lady doing my pedicure a picture of what I wanted and asked if she had the colors and she said yes. So I let her begin only to find out she didn't have the gold I wanted for the design. It was very disappointing. If I ask ahead of time and you say yes than you should really have it. When it can time to do the gold stripe she tried to tell me orange and yellow were the gold. Not even close! Overall I was very unhappy. The things that also bothered me is that they charge you an extra fee for using credit card machine. They also don't let you know until it's too late. They have a sign but it's not facing the outside. It's behind a plant facing the person sitting at the front desk not the clients. Not worth the money I paid. I will say that they were very nice but the work is not okay. read more

This shop is wonderful. I attempted to go to several other shops in the area that all closed at 7pm and when I called them at 7:00, they said come right in. Excellent gel manicure. Looks better than other shops I have gone to. My new nail salon read more

I've been coming to this shop forever! They are consistent every time and when I leave I feel 100 times better than when I walked in. Sophia always does my gel manicure and I ALWAYS receive compliments on my nails. Once I complimented someone on her nails and I wasn't surprised when she said she came here too! My daughter has frequent ingrown toe nails and they fix it every time. They show her a lot of care and concern and always ask if it feels better before they complete the service. Helen waxes my eyebrows and I am always pleased. Of course like every nail shop sometimes there is a wait and sometimes there isn't. Overall, I am always done in a timely manner and very pleased with my service. Whenever someone asks me where to go I recommend California Nails. read more

I called and spoke to a woman, not sure of her name, I asked her if they did sculpted nails and she said yes. I asked her a few more questions and she just kept saying yes to everything I asked. I don't think she was even listening to what I was asking or saying she just kept saying yes we can do for you. I got there and John was the person who was available. I've heard about John from friends so I sat down. The lady who I spoke with on the phone asked me if I had just called and I told her yes. I said I'd like to get a full set of the sculpted nails and she said we don't do them like that. So basically she lied to me and just said yes to everything I said on the phone, not listening to what I was saying at all. At this point I was already there and I had heard about John so I got a full set. Unfortunately John was very messy and there was acrylic and glue all over my fingers and all over the table as he just let excess acrylic drip onto the table. This was the messiest nail experience I've ever had! At the end of the session before nail color I hand over my credit card and he tells me it is a $2 fee to use my credit card. Rule #1 of business is you do not let your customers feel like they are paying extra for your cost of doing business. Then he proceeds to tell me that my nails will only look good if I get the gel top coat which is $5 more. When I decline the $5 gel top coat he pulls out a crusty gooey bottle of top coat and proceeds to paint this stringy bubblie stuff on my nails. I was so disappointed. My nails are full of bubbles. I don't know if its just from the top coat or its the actual acrylic. The nails themselves were shaped nice and look okay but they were truly the messiest set I've ever had. From a distance they look great but when you look at them up close they are a bubblie mess! I don't think I'll be back to see John for my fills on this set. Consider going just a few blocks east to Crystal Nails and see Mimi or Le. They have a much smaller store front but they listen to what you want, they are honest, they have an amazing selection of OPI polish, they aren't messy and they don't charge you a fee to use your credit card! read more

I went to California Nails after reading the reviews. I just started getting mani pedis after a friend took me to get gels two weeks ago at a posh place on Larchmont. This place charged way less and I got the best service. Lisa spent practically an hour cleaning up my feet!! They have never been treated so well. Sophia did my gel nails. She is sweet. I felt well taken care of and tipped well, especially since they charge way less for comparable work to the more expensive places. Go! You won't be disappointed. read more

love it moving back to my hometown soon and so sad ima leave this shop just got my nails done yesterday for my birthday tmmrw love them
