Amazing quality, service and value. Nothing to complain about, which is really saying something for a nail salon. Got the gel manicure 3 days agwhich so far feels like it's never going to chip (we'll see in another week). Will definitely be back. read more

Emblush Beaute - gel manicure, forgot the color - Nail Salons Near Me - Pasadena, California

I am visiting from Louisiana and discovered a gem. Diane gave me a fabulous pedicure and manicure and we had the best time talking! Diane was very gentle while helping my big toes feel better and removing ingrown nails on each big toe! Very relaxing atmosphere with upbeat/fun music playing in the background. So happy I found a wonderful spa to come and get pampered again on my next visit to Pasadena!! See you next time, Diane :-) read more

Total neighborhood gem! We recently relocated to pasadena and there are a lot of nail salons. I chose Emblush based on reviews and being able to book online (and tip via Venmo!). I got gel extensions for the first time and Jessica does a gorgeous job. The basic pedicure is better than many other places. Prices are competitive. Highly recommend! read more

Very good service. They painted the pattern I wanted really patiently. Will come back! read more

I'd like to give them zero stars as I called twice to make and change an appointment for a manicure and they did not make the appointment. I spoke to 2 different people and neither one made the appointment. Wow. read more

The reviews are spot on!!! If you've been hesitating going to a nail salon, look no further because this was exactly what I wanted when looking for a spot. Distanced, few people, and incredibly sweet staff. Tony did a fantastic job with my pedicure!! It's outside so obviously you're not going to sit in a plush chair but I don't care about any of that. We just want to start looking cute again lol. I was super calm and not worried about the place not following protocol. They were amazing. Thank you for such a lovely experience. It was a breeze. I will definitely be back!! read more

If you want your nails done to perfection, come here! The staff was really welcoming and sweet, and big did they know how to do nails. If you want a quick place to get a underwhelming manicure this isn't the place for you. Tony did both my pedi and mani but he took his time and didn't skip the details. I'll come here again. read more

My regular nail salon was busy so I helped nail salon in the areas. Emblush has the highest review which is rare for nail business. People are very picky about their nails. Tony did my nails. He is detailed, efficient and professional. He did such a great job that I am switching to Emblush for future manicures. Highly recommended!!! read more

Emblush Beaute does it all. Nails, hair and make up. It was my first visit and I got a gel manicure and pedicure. I was offered a drink and taken my time to pick a color. They do not rush you at all. Both people took their time for each service and I was very happy with the outcome. Will return again. Plus it's very walkable from the free 90 minute parking lots nearby. Plus plenty of street parking read more

Highly recommend this place for nails and pedicures. I used to live in the area and this was my go to place for pedicures, I would get gel and they would stay on for MONTHS!! To the point where my critical would push the nail polish off haha. But the atmosphere is amazing and is super cute inside, also I recommend making an appointment with them. Wish I could take you guys to my new location. read more

Linda was incredible. Super sweet and gave me a gorgeous manicure. She really payed attention to detail and it is one my favorite manicures I have gotten in years. The space is so cute as well. I will definitely be back! read more

It is hard to find salons that can professionally do acrylic nails. I was so pleased with the quality of Tony's work when working on my acrylic fill. Attention to detail and concern for me as a client really impressed me. I made an appointment and Tony started right on time. The price was appropriate and quality of materials is superior. The salon is well-lit and roomy. The colors are warm and inviting. The decor is attractive. I highly recommend this salon. read more

I got a signature pedicure with Mary. I was satisfied with a a service! The regular polish lasted for about 2.5-3weeks. I would recommend this salon to my friends read more

Just had the best mani pedi of my life at Emblush Beaute! It was so relaxing, they didn't cut my cuticles or hurt me during the massage (like I usually experience), and they paid such great attention to detail! The salon itself was quiet and relaxing and clean. Minnie did an amazing job with my pedicure and Junko gave me a perfect mani. So incredibly happy with this experience, can't wait to come back! read more

This place is awsome!! Soo fresh,roomy, CLEAN. And they all do an awesome JOB!! Cleaniness is my #1 search for, when I go into a salon. And everyone is soo friendly, and they actually LISTEN to what you want, not like other salons! read more

Absolutely loved this place. It's chic and decorated perfectly. The husband and wife duo are fantastic- Tony did my gel X and Diane did my nail design/polish. Both were so meticulous and made sure each nail was perfect. The gel X looks so natural. I felt very safe with their covid precautions. This place is perfect!! I'd give it more stars if I could! read more

Amazing work. This place was able to pivot during COVID by offering outside service. Which is actually pretty nice. The owners are so grateful to keep working. Super friendly staff. Very clean. And the details to their work is phenomenal. Loved it. I found my new nail shop. Getting my makeup done this weekend as well! read more

I love this place! They always accommodate when booking which is amazing! The polish stays for weeks on end, and I always feel relaxed when leaving. Today, Emily worked on my nails and I loved the end result. She was very kind, fun to talk to, and listened to what I wanted. Definitely will be recommending this place to my friends and coworkers. Ask for Emily, she's great! read more

So I went back to this place because it's convenient to my house and I needed a quick pedi before a last minute flight. This time I requested Minnie per other reviews. And she did an AH-mazing job! I would highly recommend. Also, this place has a nice vibe, it smells great (no chemical smell!!), and it's light, bright & airy. read more

I was only able to get my nails done here once right before the second covid closure, but I knew it was going to be my preferred nail salon. The place is immaculate and the service was very friendly and professional. Tony and Linda did a great job on my nails. I hope they are able to open up again soon. read more

I was around Pasadena and wanted some nails done since I must get a filling on my claws! I walked in, and this guy that was helping one customer, the rest of their business was empty so I said " I'm lucky today" nope .. he asked first what I needed & told him what I needed then looked at me asking if I have an appointment then I'm like oh hell Nahhh! So why ask me what I need if you're going to say no !!! It makes no sense! I tell him do I need one & to my surprise, he says yea but what's weird is that a girl next to him got up ready to work and sat back down real quick when he said I needed an appointment. Like damn, there was no one inside, and I looked at their website, and everyone was booked till six, but luckily there was another one down the way & so much better service not sure what their 5 star means, but for me, it's no stars at all probably five is worse in their book read more

This Salon is the best place I've been to EVER. The people working there are so sweet and the price is great for what you're getting! It was a great time. So nice and gave us water. read more

Great pedicure from Emblush today. Second time here and very happy with the service and look of nails. Friendly staff and clean facility.

Very nice place and good people. I really liked how peaceful the atmosphere was and it didn't smell like nail polish at all. More of a really cute relaxed setting. I don't get my nails done often, so I appreciated that they didn't make me feel stupid because of all my questions and even took the time to help me pick out a color. Would go back. read more

****Revised review since I messed up on the names for my nail techs! +5 STARS FOR MINNIE, -1 FOR MANICURIST! Let me start off by saying that I helped manage a nail salon for 7 years, so I'm VERY picky and I know good work vs bad work. I just moved to the valley and have tried salons and was very disappointed, so I looked through Yelp for salons that were further away just to find a place that I would like. I go through every review and picture and zoom in just so I can look at the cuticle work, nail shape, and polish job. I booked a classic gel manicure and an organic gel pedicure here. I specifically booked one technician for my gel manicure and a different one for my pedicure after going through all the reviews and looking at the pictures and their work. I won't name who I booked, but I was not impressed. I was sad because she had good reviews from others, but she just didn't cut it for me. She was very nice, but nice doesn't = good job. When she was done shaping and asked me if the shape was okay, I was surprised by how many of my nails were uneven. She fixed them after I pointed it out, but I was just surprised that she didn't notice how uneven they are. Then came the polishing and it was messy. Some nails did not reach the cuticle and some did, some was uneven on the cuticle, some had gel spillage, and all of them but 2 nails gapped, lifted, and chipped after 6 days. This is due to improper gel application and not covering the entire nail with top coat. She also seemed as if she was rushing when she was doing my service--I booked my pedi at 10:00 and my mani at 11:00 because I dislike getting them both done at once, but she came in at 10:30 and started me? I assume she had a client after. What I do like is that she doesn't cut a lot of cuticle and skin and doesn't use bond/primer before polishing. Many salons use bond/primer to make the gel last longer, but it's awful for your nails and your gels will last as long as your technician properly prepped your nails. She also took extra time to layer the base coat of my gel since I have a few nails that are uneven which I appreciated. Now for my gel pedicure, I specifically booked Diane but got Minnie instead and she didn't disappoint! I was very pleasantly surprised. Her nail shaping, polish, and technique is excellent. She doesn't cut cuticles excessively, cleans under and around the toenails to get the dead skin out, and even recognized that I had impacted skin in the side of my toenail and removed it instead of immediately thinking it's an ingrown nail and cutting my toenail and messing up the shape. Her polishing is nearly flawless--my gel pedi lasted a month with no lifting or chipping at all. She also doesn't use bond/primer which is awesome! I couldn't get in with Minnie since she was booked and the times she was available collided with my work schedule, so I went to a salon near my house and the tech completely wrecked my toenails!! Now they're thinned out and breaking even with gel on them and uneven because the girl tried to cut my ingrowns and completely messed up the shape of my toenails. I just booked an appointment and can't wait for her to make my feet pretty again lol. She's amazing and I highly recommend booking her!! Overall, I recommend Emblush Beaute. It's hard to find a salon that doesn't use bond/primer nowadays and has technicians that do nails the old way (using actual tools to put back cuticles, clean out dead skin, scrubbing heels with a paddle, etc) since nowadays, many new techs rely on their drills to do everything from cuticle removal to nail evening to removing skin off your heels/bottom of your foot. Also, many new techs know how to do good manicures--dip, gel, acrylics, etc. but don't know how to do good pedicures. I can do my manicures myself and prefer to, but pedicures are a little harder so I'll always pay money to get good pedicures. Invest in your feet, people! read more

Incredibly clean, lovely service!

One of the best nail shops in Pasadena. Every time i go i get the organic pedicure and it is a wonderful experience. i go here regularly and it's always a relaxing time. read more

The atmosphere was beautiful, and the people were friendly, but right after I got my gel manicure, it broke my nail where my skin is. I've had gel before, and it has never broken my nail like this. I'm very disappointed because I thought I had found my new nail salon. Very very much disappointed. read more
