I am not writing this place off; I just feel like I've had experiences elsewhere that exceeded my experience at Sage. There could be more thorough exfoliation on the foot itself, and the polish could be better spread on the nail. The cutting of the nails should have been a little tighter/shorter based on what I asked for.

The other two times, the gel lasted, but they damaged my nail bed from using drills after pressuring me, and 4/10 of my nails have split in the middle--this has only ever happened to me after a nail tech damaged my nail bed from over filing or drilling. One time a lady (Julie) started to do my nails and got an attitude them started talking about me in another language. I then asked for someone else if she could not continue without having a rude attitude. She then claimed no one likes removing gel without drilling and was extremely nasty and rude. I will never come back to this place. The three pictures is from my last time going there, showing the four nails that broke/split in the middle of my nail due to damage. Not sure why it is almost impossible to find a nail salon that will not severely damage my nails in LA.

They kept coming back and forth standing they couldn't work on my nails because they didn't know anything about acrylics? After about an hour of back and forth they asked me to wait for another person at that point I said no and decided to leave. The most humiliating part was they were talking to me infront of all the customers that's were there. They did not apologize for the me feeling humiliated.

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.

I've been coming here since they opened a few months ago! I love all the girls! The service is great and the salon is always clean. Every time I come in they offer me coffee and water; they also have complimentary treats in the front (candy/nail oil/ nail brushes) as you check out. Overall I'm a big fan and I would recommend this salon to everyone. The best part is they speak Spanish! read more

But when I walked in, I was told they were appointment-only and asked to make an appointment for tomorrow. Both employees were sitting in the back eating. One explained that someone had just called to make a reservation and, because there were only two employees, they couldn't accommodate me. I understand that walk-ins depend on availability. What's frustrating is advertising walk-ins throughout the neighborhood, then telling customers that appointments are required when they arrive. This location has changed names several times, but unfortunately, the experience felt very familiar. Please make the advertising match how the business actually operates so people don't waste their time.
