I've been coming here for about 3 years! Everyone is always so welcoming. service has always been just what I've asked for, if there was anything that needed to be fixed it was done no questions asked. Definitely will continue to come back! read more

We walked by and my daughter begged me to go in. We were passing time and she was lured by the lollipops. The inside isn't super nice, it looks kinda old on the chairs and stuff... so why the 5 stars? They treated my daughter like a queen, got her polish to match her dress since the one we chose didn't quite show up, and added glitter on top. She left with a mani and a pedi at an incredibly good price (might as well been a gift) great service and very friendly staff! read more

I've been going here for a while, and always happy with the service, quality, and the folks working at Gatsby. This was my first time with Coco, she did a wonderful job on my flashy green cats eye gel manicure! I brought my mom for her birthday to get a manicure, her first in decades since her wedding. Denise did a great job, and my mom had a great time with her. She got gel extensions and Denise threw in a fun little spring flower design, and even sang happy birthday lol! Had a great time! read more

I am a regular at this place and love the work they do and how kind they are to everyone.

A couple weeks ago I came in to get a fill, it was my first time. A heavier set male came out agressively annoyed as if he was already in a bad mood and sat down in front of me. Not only dod he grab my hand aggressively he turned the mode up so high on the nail filer and legit was hurting my nails from the vibration. I told him he was being very aggressive and he stared and me rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders lol I asked him if he was having a bad day I could go elsewhere and he just stared at me lol I got up respectfully and left. Horrible establishment and it was old and dirty inside. Will not be coming back due to how I got treated as a first time customer. read more

Don't try Gatsby Nails ever ! You may got severe infections first they don't use sealed tools for your cuticles , second the nail technician did horrible job! This is my nails after I finished X gel immediately, you can see from the pictures that it's horrible experience and it's very unprofessional.when I asked her why it's like that she said it's ok it's just because it's not too long and we can remove it and do it next refill !!! Seriously I returned after two hours and I asked to remove it, after my friend ( specialist) told me this could cause bad infection from gap between nails which will hold water & dust & germs too and i also asked for refund. My worst experience . Be careful where you do your nails Search the reviews here and you will find someone got severe infection too I hope I checked those reviews before trying read more

I have been going to Gatsby since it opened and love the people & friends I have met there...everyone is very nice and does a great job. I have my favorite dip manicure with Michelle and pedi with Anna (Banana)....as well as working with Denise, Helen and all the other ladies! My husband, mom and I all go regularily and appreciate everyone there! So happy for their success and love how they now text appointment confirmations! :) read more

I've been going to Gatsby Nails since middle school and now I'm in my twenties. So I have been coming here for some time now. I usually have Helen work on my mani and pedis because she's truly a great nail tech. But Sundays she's off and I was only able to make it to last Sunday which was yesterday. So Karen helped me with my pedicure. I've never had her do any of my services before but with the times I've gone to Gatsby I've had nothing but good experiences. So Karen started on my pedicure and unfortunately didn't do a good job. Karen missed a bunch of the services for a pedi. She only scrubbed one foot, didn't put any lotion on my legs or feet, I believe she didn't cut the cuticles, etc. She was almost falling asleep on my feet, and I got very concerned for her because she is an older woman and I didn't know if it was because of her health. When I asked her if she was okay she got kind of upset with me and stated she was fine. I let it go and she continued. When she continued she thought she was painting my toe nails but was actually painting the paper towel in between to separate my toes. She was I guess upset that I asked her if she was okay earlier during the service and so every five minutes she was asking me if I was okay but in a smart remark tone. I left with paying the service still but left no tip. I called the salon a couple minutes later to ask if they can redo my pedicure and they said yes of course for $30, and I reminded them of the experience that I had and they said because they're redoing the service it'll cost $30. So because of this experience i won't be coming here again. If you ever decide on coming here ask for Helen. I have learned my lesson. read more

I walked in around 45mins before closing. Very friendly and accommodating. Gave good recommendations for a future set and did a nice job with a simple manicure as I let my nails regrow. Will definitely be coming back read more

I got a dip manicure for the first time. I made a day-of appointment and was seated quickly. The nail tech was wonderful! Very kind, helpful with my color choice, and detail oriented. I appreciated that she went back multiple times to get them filed just right. read more

I live down the street, and have been going here on n off for years/ but not on a regular basis. But the last 3 times this place showed preferential treatment, i.e. if you're not a "regular" you get pushed to the side. This has been mine (& my moms) experience the last few times we've gone in. I made an appointment with an experienced nail tech there, explained "this is my manicure for my WEDDING" so you'd think they'd think its important. But when I came in that same tech I made the apt with & reiterated this was for my wedding to, told me "ooh, this person will do your nails instead". I just wanted a gel French tip on my natural nails, and this tech had no idea what she was doing (she was nice but new). I'm not picky, but she just could not do a white line. An experienced tech then took over bc all the lines were so lopsided. All my nails cracked a week later. I went to another salon to have it all redone. Same thing happened to my mom when she went in last week for a pedi. The tech doing her pedi took so long, that the tech next to her did 3 pedis by the time she was done. I guess you have to go in there all the time to get an experienced tech, if you want it to be good. read more

I had the opportunity to visit Gatsby Nails again recently. They were able to see me at the time of my appointment and I got the simple gel manicure I wanted the last time I visited. Staff was courteous and friendly. I really appreciated that my nail technician asked about the color I had selected because she was able to suggest the perfect dark blue I was after. Overall a good experience. I'll be coming back in a couple weeks for a pedicure! read more

UPDATE: 2 months of this awful infection and having trouble walking and going to doctors. I had to go on antibiotics. They didn't work. I had to then go to a podiatrist and get a procedure done that included 4 needles in my toe so they could do the procedure. Y'all this is wild. I've never had anything like this happen before. Be careful where you go, how much of your nail they're cutting and how clean it is. The podiatrist confirmed this was absolutely from the nail salon not being clean and them cutting too much of my nail. Again, don't want to be mean but wtf this is insane. read more

Gatsby Nails - Disgusting toe fungus I got from this salon... - Nail Salons Near Me - Glendora, California

I found this place here on Yelp & decided to give them a try based on the number of people who submitted reviews & their overall rating. You know - some businesses have 5-star ratings, but only 2 reviews, but others have 4-stars & 50 reviews. I'll take the one with more reviews who've maintained a high rating. It never fails! I've been going to Gatsby Nails ever since! These folks are GOOD. Like, VERY good. They always give me exactly what I want & they're perfect every time! The girl I sometimes get (whose name I can't remember right now - haven't had my coffee yet) will get creative with me. I always give her carte blanche to decorate my nails any way she'd like. I walked out today with 2 lovely peacock feathers, tulips, & a cool mandala-looking pattern - all hand-painted & completely spontaneous! You can't see the feathers very well in the picture (one on the ring finger & another on the thumb of my right hand), but they're lovely! I highly, highly recommend them! PS: There's an ice cream parlor next door, so you can pamper yourself & indulge in a sundae in the same trip! PPS: They also work on men. My hubby often tags along & gets his nails tended to. read more

Where do I begin? I hate to have to take the time to write this review for a place I have been to many times for a long time. I have a very busy schedule so I occasionally get my nails done when needed. My birthday is around the corner so I called to make an appointment a little over a week in advance for a dip mani and gel pedi. The service and quality at this salon have severely declined over time and this salon has absolutely no value for its customers. I will start by sharing that I asked for a dip mani with a narrow round shape. What I got: very thick dip and the opposite of what I asked for. Not only that, the nail tech used a clear dip instead of only my chosen color, so the color came out incredibly diluted and tacky. She put 4 layers of thick dip powder on each nail, which 2 of the layers were colorless clear dip powder. When I asked her to file it down and make it even, she disrespectfully responded that she couldn't because my natural nail is uneven.. (like there's no way the 4 fat layers of powder could have possibly created such a thick uneven job..) not only that, but the nail lady was beyond rude, the most unprofessional, argumentative and inadequate individual I have ever encountered. It genuinely makes me question her license considering the immensely horrific nail work she did. When I brought this nightmare experience to the owner/manager's attention, she casually said "oh sorry" with the least amount concern. What I have shared isn't even half of the experience, it's just a fraction example of how horrible the nail work, service and individuals are at this place. At the end of the day, management has enabled unprofessional behaviors and below satisfactory work and the only thing I can think of maybe they're burnt out and in need of a lot of time off or plain out retirement. I have an incredibly strong influence within my community and individuals reach out to me for numerous recommendations on many things; I will be sure to stay very far away from this place and I'll guarantee that I'll be sharing the same with others. Lastly, the AC was off- it was 100 degrees outside and they had the door open. Try having a pedi in warm water while sweating. If that's not enough to deter you then good luck. Save your time &money and go somewhere else. read more

First time coming to this place. One of the closest locations that were open. And it was a great experience for me with Sam. 1 star- I called and made my appointment Saturday for Sunday so that was sooner than I expected. I was honestly thinking maybe a couple days cause of covid. 1 star- They are working outside right now and with everyone there they do a good job at spacing everyone out to keep up with social distancing. Everyone when I was there was wearing masks. Very clean I saw they spraying/wiping everything down. You do have to sign a waver which I understand. 3 stars- Sam did my acrylic ombre nails/regular polish pedicure. He took his time with my nails and made them look beautiful! He was very kind and like I said was taking his time to make them look nice so I didn't feel rushed like I was another number. I would definitely recommend sam. read more

Been coming here for years. It's so cute and they're always so kind and helpful. They never steer me wrong. I got this set with Coco for New Year's Eve. I come in open minded because they always have fun ideas for my nails. I planned to do a black French tip on stiletto gel x nails, but Coco and another tech recommended cat eye for the length. The nail techs kept gathering around while she was doing my nails and they were all so excited about how beautiful they came out! I was so sad to come and get them shortened after only a week because I'm headed back to work after the weekend (I sometimes work with tools). They were so kind and didn't even charge me to shorten them! The nail techs here really care about their work and I love that I can geek out with them over such a beautiful set!!! read more

I have been coming here for almost 7 years now. This salon is just wonderful! The owners and staff always treat me well and go above and beyond to make sure I am happy! The salon is clean and neat looking. The ambiance is peaceful and I like that they have a flat screen with music videos of different genres. The prices are very reasonable. They have many options for colors and styles for your nails. I cannot go anywhere else for my nails. This is my place and go to for my nails. read more

Last Friday was my first time at Gatsby Nails. This nail salon is in a great location (Downtown Glendora). However, I'm a little disappointed in my visit. As soon as I was offered a seat I had two women start on my mani/pedi. Right away I was given the gel nail colors to pick from. While I was sitting there watching more people enter I noticed that other customers had been shown a menu to pick from. I was pretty sad that I was never offered a menu as I do like to add massages, paraffin, and scented scrubs when available. On top of that, the young lady who did my toes didn't even paint the whole nail. It felt like she rushed through the process. Even when she put lotion on my feet/legs she probably took three seconds to semi rub it in. They had a large pillow placed on my lap and I couldn't see my feet until I was ready to leave. Had I noticed I would of asked her to fix it. My toes look like the polish was already growing out for a week. Anyway... I would like to give kudos to the little lady who did my French Tip manicure. She was constantly checking on me and asking if I liked how my nails were coming out. I greatly appreciate how attentive she was. She took her time and my finger nails look great! Another cool thing to note is that Gatsby Nails accepts ApplePay and they do have their own ATM machine in case you need cash for tip. read more

Last time i went i did dip manicure and it was starting to break after a week, i went back and they offered to re-do it. Michelle did the dip for me and it's looking great (I believe now it's week 3 or week 4). Definitely going back and highly recommend it for other costumers. read more

This was my first time here and last. I clearly stated before my nails I wanted LONG coffins shape, I repeated told the nail tech that these were TOO short and not skinny enough. They were uneven. I also got a pedicure and the lady was rude. Only put 1 coat of gel white paint, and said I was done and never once asked if this was what I wanted. I am very unsatisfied and will never be here again. read more

First time trying this place out based on reviews. The place is clean, modern and in the heart of Glendora. The person who did my acrylic fill is Denise. I told her I had a bad experience of paying so much money and not having my nails the shape and length I wanted. I showed her a picture of the shape and length I wanted and she was attentive to what I asked for. Throughout my appointment she continuously asked if I liked the shape, length and even the color. I appreciated that she wasn't treating me in a rushed manner and made sure I liked my nails. I tip more for people who take an interest in making sure I am satisfied. I just make this spot my go to. Highly recommend Denise! read more

What a treat this place is. I have tried A LOT of nail places and this is by far at the top of my list. The way customers love the staff and the care that the staff gives the customers is top notch. I've gone twice now and the second time, I completely botched my nails two seconds after leaving. The team was super nice about fixing them and working with me to make sure I was good to go. Saturdays get pretty busy (to be expected) so make sure you book early or go through the week. The technicians I've enjoyed the most are Sam, Amy, Lynn, and Anna Banana.

I found Gatsby Nails on Instagram. And decided to take a 15 minute drive and try them out . I absolutely love my new set !! I was greeted , ask to sanitize my hands and my temperature was taken as I checked in . I was immediately given a spot to sit down . After Sam checked out my nails he suggested I take off my old set ( got somewhere else ) and get a new full set . He is so professional and I love my nails . He was very careful and did an amazing job !! I highly recommend GATSBY NAILS !! read more

Not the best place. Went here for the first time with a friend and wasn't impressed. Not super clean and didn't take their time at all. This is the first time I've gotten my nails done since November. I was really excited and look forward forward to it. The woman who did my pedicure was great. The one who did my nails didn't even do a manicure. And I was charged wayyyy too much for the job they did. Too bad. I'll post a picture of my nails now. This was suppose to be a treat especially because I'm 8 wks postpartum. I'm not sure when my next nail date will be. Probably will not go back. That's the tough part about nail salons there are so many So you can really search for the one you love. I should have just driven to my favorite spot in pasadena. Next time.
