Lupe has by far been the greatest nail artist that I have ever met. She exceeds my expectations everytime. Whether it has been a holiday, seasonal or a simple theme, she can do it all. I can always expect great quality from her. She is the best nail tech in Highland park and I highly recommend her not only to my friends and family but everyone else. read more

No one is better at Bio-Gel nails than Lupe. Mine last a month. She can also do everything else. Most importantly she never damages your nail or nail bed by over sanding. She's talented. read more

I went in a few weeks ago to try a hard gel manicure for the first time! Everyone was so nice and friendly when I walked in, and the studio is SO cute, clean, and welcoming - it felt like a whole experience! They offered me water, and I loved being able to watch a show on their big screen (which always makes long nail sessions less awkward and more fun). Guadalupe did an incredible job on my manicure, and I felt comfortable and relaxed the entire time. Overall, I had an awesome time and can't wait to go back! :) read more

What a gem in Highland Park! I took my daughter to get her nails done here twice now, and she's loved both sets. She had pictures of the designs she wanted and Lupe nailed it. She's so creative and detailed. Thanks G nails, we will be coming back. read more

G Nails Studio - Great manicure and friendly service. - Nail Technicians Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I went in today for a no polish pedicure. The staff was friendly and polite, and the studio is adorable, clean, and comfortable - unlike any nail salon i've been to. They offered me water and I got to enjoy Gilmore Girls during my service. Amanda did such a great job on my pedicure and I felt comfortable and relaxed the whole time. My only comment would be that I wanted them to go in a little harder on my calluses, but next time I will verbalize this! Overall wonderful experience and affordable for a college student. read more

This was my first time at G Nails Studio. I really loved it. The staff are welcoming and the vibe is comforting. Lupe did an amazing job with my Gel X nails and the nail art is so great. I will be recommending my friends. read more

UPDATE: WORST NAIL SALON EXPERIENCE EVER. TL/DR: Unprofessional salon refused to refund gift certificate valued over ($100) after they were 30 minutes late for a scheduled appointment. After reading the owner's response, I feel more disappointed that we choose to even look at this salon at all. I am disappointed because my boyfriend acted in good faith and gave a business I never tried a chance. Ordinarily, if the business was impossible to reach by phone and difficult to schedule online, I would have passed, but he bought this gift certificate and I wanted to make sure it was not wasted. Guadalupe, my issue with your business is not that you were late (I mentioned this in my initial review - life happens and I know that I am guilty of it.) It's that your business was unprofessional. From neglected calls, to being late, to again not updating me knowing you were well past the time and how much longer you were going to take is what I take issue with. If I have a person in front of me and I can see that time flying by and I am still not ready? I offer if they would like to come back at a later time or reschedule. Posting that you are unable to take lunch? That is disturbing. This tells me there is an issue with time management, calls for more space between appointments, and (as I stated in my initial review) the need to hire someone else so you can focus on your passion. I would NEVER want someone to sacrifice a meal for the sake of giving me "good nails." That feels unconscionable and I would be ashamed if anyone I managed had to miss a meal to be at the beck and call of a customer. You would have given me a discount, but wouldn't refund the my gift certificate? I'm not sure how the two make sense. Additionally, as I mentioned before, you suggested that I give it to someone else? Why? So they can be made the feel the same way? All in all, I hope this is an eye-opening experience for the owner and she is able to look at what can be done to better her business for future success. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I have been going to Lupe for almost 4 years now and I can honestly say I wouldn't go anywhere else. She is a truly amazing artist, extremely kind and professional and her salon is sparkling clean and incredibly comfortable. If you are looking for specialty nail art you have found the holy grail in Lupe. She can create or replicate anything you can dream up and more. Plus she is just a joy to spend an hour or two with. I highly recommend G Nails Studio / Lupe and am happy to support a local, woman-owned small business. read more

Guadalupe is not only a skilled nail tech and nail artist but a wonderful human being. This is a Latina, woman owned business built by someone who was raised in the community, for her neighborhood. It's a wonderful boutique where art and nail care intersect. It's clean, they are attentive and professional and verrrrry good at what they do. read more

I can't say enough good things about G nails. Guadeloupe is an incredible nail artist. This is my second bio gel manicure and my first one lasted the FULL 4 weeks like she said it would! Literally I had lots of regrowth and zero chipping. Even the day before this appointment, I hit one nail so hard I knew my nail broke a little, and it did! But, the nail polish didn't chip and it had been 4 weeks!!! I also am not gentle on my nails. I have two kids under 5, no dishwasher and no housekeeper. My nails get beat up and G's bio gel manicure held up so well! In fact, I finally feel like I can grow my nails out a little because the manicure keeps them so strong. She also just gives a perfect manicure in general. I can't recommend her enough! The salon itself is also so clean and feels great. read more

Did not actually get a chance to get my nails done with her. I made a reservation and paid a deposit but the day of my appointment she cancelled due to feeling unwell. I adjusted my schedule to come and see her a few days later but she told me she didn't know if she was going to take appointments at all so she cancelled my 2nd reservation. While I appreciate her being honest, I found her method of handling a potential future client rather odd. I understand that things come up but she also had an Instagram account that said otherwise as she took clients on the day I had scheduled my second appointment. I wish I could say something about her work or showmanship but I didn't even get that far as my first appointment was cancelled 30 mins prior to me showing up. I don't live close (almost 40 minutes away) and I was already in the neighborhood when she cancelled. I will travel for a salon that offers vegan nail options but her attitude was kind of "well I can't control things" and there was really no apology. Too bad but I suppose she has enough business to not really care. read more

I had to cancel my apt today due to a family emergency and I was willing to pay a late fee but whoever answered the phone was very understanding and she wished me well with my situation. I am please so far even though I was not able to get a service. Thank you g nails for understanding. It means alot!!! read more

Today was my first time going to this nail shop since I noticed that it just opened up not long ago! I came kind of unsure of what to expect but was met with professionalism, perfectionism, and a chill environment. Guadalupe was so awesome and answered a lot of the questions I had about prices, designs, and hours of operation. I booked my appointment through her Instagram via her "book now" button and although it takes a lot of reading to understand the booking process, calling is always an option as well. I actually got Gel X which I have never tried before and they just came out awesome- just perfect. Overall very professional and relaxing establishment. read more

Lupe is the best in what she does. I get gel x done with her and have never broken a nail. They last between 4-5 weeks and always still look good when I go back. read more

Best service I've ever experienced with a nail stylist. Lupe is so attentive, very welcoming, and extremely talented. Can't wait to go back and get her art on my nails! So here's my story: Rewind to a week ago, I was looking to get my daughter a full set, in preparation for her sweet 16. So needless to say, we wanted them to be spectacular. The nail shop we were referred to was very disappointing, the work was awful and her cuticles were peeling the next day and it was just so bad. That same day we came across Lupe at Divine Salon and made an appointment for the following week after seeing all the beautiful work on her Instagram. She did not disappoint. My daughter was able to get exactly what she wanted- ombré French tip- and with the time and care Lupe took with her manicure, her nails look healthy and pretty read more

The best of the best!! I was in last night and I've already texted every girlfriend in the area telling them I found the new spot! So cute, girly, and cozy and I left with the best set of acrylics I've ever had. read more

You would never know that the nail angel named Lupe works in this small Hair Salon, Salon Divine. I have never felt so happy about my nails and the fact that I got exactly what I wanted. EXACTLY. I have natural nails, but wanted to add some strength. I have dealt with acrylics, gel extensions, you name it. All have left some damage to my nails. I recently went on the hunt for a quality manicurist who used quality products, like Bio Seaweed Gel. And I found her! She is tucked away in Salon Divine! Her nail area is well organized and clean. She is extremely professional and does an amazing job. Her nail art is out of this world and she seems to have all the newest trends, while still making sure she only does what's healthy for your nails. I will be back again and again! read more

Lupe has been my nail artist for a few years now and I have not found anyone else who not only does great work but is truly in love with her craft. She is always looking for ways to improve and perfect her work, plus she is extremely humble which is hard to find in her industry. I will continue to get my nails done by her and highly recommend that if you love creativity and nails then you book an appointment now!! read more

I found Lupe on IG through a friend. I spent many months just looking through her IG page admiring her amazing work and saying to myself that I would be making an appt with her soon, but was hesitant because that meant I had to go to 2 different places for my nails and pedicure. Despite that, I finally booked my appt with her and I have no regrets. She was very nice and talkative which makes the time go by fast. When she was down with my nails, I was so happy with the end result. I been to her about 3 times already and every time I leave feeling happy about how my nails turned out. read more

She is also nice, intelligent, personable, pleasant to talk to, hospitable, and her space is clean, nicely decorated, comfortable, etc. Totally the opposite of the typical nail place where you just can't wait to get out of there. I highly recommend! read more

Amazing work. Wish I still had the photo when she did little ornaments on my nails. She is such a lovely person and a great nail artist.

I am so happy I came to Lupe. She fixed my daughter's nails from a bad fill job where the nails were bumpy and peeling and made them beautiful again. She gave me a great full sculpted set, it has been such a long time since I've had long nails and I love them! I would recommend Lupe to anyone who is picky about their nails because she is so detailed. By the way she is creative & she is an awesome artist! read more
