Anyways, this is the only place I've gotten my nails done in Los Angeles and I won't be going anywhere else! First of all, I've always been very pandemic conscious, and I appreciated how diligent and clean Janis's place was with pandemic precautions. It's usually just her working, so you're only engaging with one person which I love more than a crowded salon. The attention to detail is impeccable. I love that she gives a discount for Occidental workers which is wonderful and this is just my favorite place to go. Always book in advance... I usually book 2 or three appointments at a time. Spaced out when I'm thinking about it. She usually doesn't have last-minute availability because people are regulars, and they book up far in advance. Wonderful work, kind person, great service.

Before I went to Blackheart Nails, the actual process of getting my nails done was honestly pretty…read moremiserable. My nails looked good, but I dreaded going to my appointments. The nail artists were either super slow (6+ hours for a mani) or just really bad vibes. They did a great job, but it sucks handing over that much money and feeling awful walking / running out the door. The first time I went to Blackheart Nails, I felt at home right away. I adore Sica and she is a wizard. She's always able to achieve the looks I ask for without hesitation, and she is FAST. All the artists are talented and genuinely good people. I actually enjoy getting my nails done now. So glad I finally found them!

Now, I have a nail person I've been going to for years, but she is having a baby and is on maternity leave. As much as I am happy for her, I was stressing about my nails. I'm very particular when it comes to my nail game. I can't just go to any random spot without a recommendation and some research. Yes, it's that serious! Don't play me. An high school pal posted a story of her "Christmas fantasy" nails on the gram and tagged blackheart nails. I immediately checked them out and it was a YES for me. The booking was a breeze, straight to the point. The day of the appointment, I was able to find parking easily. They are located upstairs, you can't miss the sign. They do have two studios, so be mindful of the nail tech you booked with which will decide on which studio you'll go into. I booked with Lauren who specializes in 3D nail art. Lauren was great and my nails turned out so good! I was very impressed and loved the way they turned out. If you are looking for a new nail salon, I highly recommend checking out Blackheart Nails. You'll thank me later.

We probably called about 10 places and this one could fit us in and the pricing was great! We went in and the environment was very relaxed, clean and calm. It was peaceful and quiet. A very nice experience and my nails looked amazing. I picked a beautiful plum purple and the woman who did my nails did them flawlessly. They lasted for almost 3 weeks before I had to take them off. I used to go to Occidental College, so it was great for us to be able to go to such a nice nail place nearby. I will remember York Nails for sure!

Ultimately, ANY specific or special requests here are viewed as problematic and will get you labeled and talked about -- possibly even yelled at. Yes, yelled at. I came in at 4 on my last visit and was asked to come back at 5 for a fill and pedicure. By 6:15, dyeing my very long pedicure process-- when I asked why no one has started my nails, I was yelled at then ignored while I watched them take new walk ins and pretend they had "appointments". By virtue of the fact I was asked to come back at 5, didn't I have one as well? Another patron noticed this and also mentioned it had happened to her there. The manager ignored it and pretended not to notice. The whole vibe of the staff is that they are basically doing you a favor. Please. Nothing could be further from the truth. The work is barely acceptable -- but it's close to home. I finally directly asked the manager why I was forced to wait and she fed me something about being short staffed. However, I later watched yet another patron get both hands and feet serviced at once, so I have no idea. I will say there is one man there who does an okay job, but to my sadness he was absent that day. Thus, I had to settle for whomever I got. She was nice enough, but her talent was limited -- to put it nicely. My fill looks worse than my original new growth. She didn't even remove the lifting product first. All bad. I'll need to remove these by the end of the week to protect the integrity of my nails. Oh and remember I arrived at 4 -- I left at 7:50. So much for an early drop in. Avoid this place like the plague.

I once supported this nail spa and will try to give the facts as objectively as possible. Staff is…read morevery nice. The issues that have led to my review: 1. I received a gel manicure and before I hit the one week mark I had three nails chipped. I went back and they fixed it free of charge which I would expect, but still quite unusual. I am a mother and chalked it up to I'm rough on my hands but still felt early for chips. 2. My husband booked a 4pm appointment for myself, my daughter for her first ever pedicure, and my mother on Mother's Day. He booked the appointment a week in advance. We show up at 4 and there are no seats open and told to wait 5 minutes. This became 30 minutes (imagine that on a 3 year old toddler), we were sat separately from each other, and our pedicures were rushed. We weren't asked if we wanted to pay for any upgraded pedicures because they closed at 5 and it was obvious they were rushing (sweeping and cleaning next to us). The reason we were split up was a mother and daughter that came in as walk-in (the daughter told me so). So all in all not a great experience on Mother's Day. 3. The last straw was before Mother's Day I had gotten hard gel nails since I figured the chipping was my issue. Two days ago, less than two weeks from the manicure, and entire nail just popped off like a press on. I went in today and they refused to fix it without charging me as it had been two weeks. Now look, I understand at two weeks a chip or crack may happen...but the entire thing shouldn't pop off. Hard gel should take effort to remove. I brought the whole nail as well to show I didn't pick at it or anything. Anyways, not high quality nails or service unfortunately.
