    Our Christmas and New Years are already looking bright with our new fabulous nails! Joanail is situated in a lovely corner of a hair salon and is a one-woman business run by the amazing Joanne~ Her attention to detail and dedication to nail art are unlike other nail technicians'. She was able to easily cater to our styles and reference pictures that we saved on our phones. The price is reasonable and much cheaper compared to many nail salons in ktown. Parking is also free in the lot. Will definitely be back for a new design!

    AMAZING NAIL ARTIST. I was having a hard time finding a place to do the kind of nail art I wanted and Joanne ticked off all the boxes. The nails came out amazing and she was very nice and hospitable. The store is clean and she's very thorough and detailed with her work! Would 1000% go back whenever I come back to LA

    First post COVID nail time~ Joanne and I had so much fun deciding over all the different colors and designs before I settled for a basic gradient design. Even though it was the first time meeting her, she made me feel very comfortable, would definitely come back! It's been week 3 but the nails are still perfect as day 1

    Joanne did an amazing job with my nails today. I showed her an image, and she was able to recreate the look. My hands looks so pretty after she did my nails! She is very detailed oriented, and had great service. Making an appointment is also very easy, just text her. Parking is very convenient too because it is validated garage parking. Will definitely be going back!

    Her designs are beautiful. 2019 will be the best christmas ever! Thank you so much Joanne, I wish yours is too! She did me and my daughters nails and it brings all of us so much joy ~

    OMG!! I found the new spot for my nail!!! Joanne was amazing! I love my new nail art~~ She was very friendly and professional! Plus that she was perfectionist in a good way! She took her time to do my nail pretty ~ Thank you! I will definitely come back!

    Joanne is the best! Joanne pays attention to detail. From the health of the nail, using only the best products down to the best designs. I know that any design that I have in mind she will make into reality! She is truly an artist. If you are looking for "nail art " Joanail is the place you are looking for! She is a one woman shop, so make sure you make an appointment.

    This nail place is a hidden jem. Joann really takes her time with the clients and enjoys doing her job. I usually gravitate towards fancy nails and joann understood my taste. I've been to many different nail salons in koreatown and joann was the only one who did not complain about the design I have brought in. She's very responsive and works around your schedule as well so if you want to get your nails done give this place a try! P.S: the picture does not due its justice, it's really really pretty.

    Found her on Instagram and messaged her about loving her work. Followed all the rules to book an appointment with her. I booked my appointment with her and told my sister to book an appointment too, moments later she just texted me "I will cancel your appointment saturday". I asked her why and she never replied, and moments later I found out she canceled on me to book my sister because she was going to get done something more expensive! We both asked for and explanation and she never replied. EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL!

    Joanne is the best!!!! She spends a great amount of time and care to ensure your nails are done just right. She is very careful with your hands and cuticles and is so talented with different styles of nail art. My mom and 5 year old daughter are big fans, too! If you're looking for an excellent, high quality nail artist look for further!

    I was so happy and pleased with my nail appointment I got inspired to create my first yelp review! Joanne is so attentive and makes sure to make you feel welcome and comfortable. This was the first time I've ever gotten my nails done and Joanne made my experience the best one! She sees your reference picture and makes sure to perfect it. She pays attention to every detail to ensure your nails are beautiful. I will definitely be telling friends and others to check JoaNail and I will definitely be coming here again!!! If you're in Koreatown make sure to get your nails done here!!!

    Recommend to find somewhere else if you want nails extensions that last. I came in to get a Pedi and nail extension; the Pedi turned out fine. However, the Nail extensions quality was not good at all. I can see the nails lifting on the sides, bubbles under some of the nail.. Overall just doesn't look good for it only being two days since I got them done. She also attempted to charge me $165 at first, to than $145, which I still think is overpriced, seeing the lack of quality. I tried to reach out to her, but she is ignoring my messages.

    I had such a great experience today and had to leave a review!…read more While getting my nails done, we ended up chatting the whole time and it was honestly so fun. On top of that, she works so fast, I was really impressed. I first came here about 7-8 years ago through a friend, and after they moved to a new location, I came back a few times but didn't quite feel the same. I think it's because I wasn't seeing the same person. Today, I had my nails done by Ria (the owner), and I absolutely loved it. I have very thin nails, so my nails usually don't last long. It always felt like a waste of money, and I would wait months in between appointments until my nails got stronger again. But Ria really took the time to look at my nail condition and even mixed different products to make them last longer that gave me so much trust in her work. I'm honestly so happy with the results, and I think I'll only be coming here from now on. Ria, I'm looking forward to coming back! please take good care of me!

However I would have someone different every time I went in and never would even see the person again in there working on someone else. After going quite reliably for several months, I made reservations for a friend to come along and the issues started. They don't have enough staff here and I think have a lot of turnover as previously mentioned, I've never had the same person in my visits. Well, they didn't have someone for my friend despite us having an appointment. They started me and didn't start my friend until 45 minutes later. When they did, it was very rushed and we had booked a nice relaxing treatment. The whole situation was stressful and weird and it was my friend's first time EVER getting a pedicure. He now hates them and refuses to go try getting one again, lol. My friend wasn't apologized to or anything else for the mistake and unfortunately the poor handling of this situation was enough to cause me to switch salons. I was already on the edge as there are always parking issues here (the valet fills very fast and then it's impossible to find parking because many popular businesses share the lot) and the quality was very hit or miss with GelX because of the techs constantly being different. I found somewhere more reliable, with better work, better prices and reliable parking so I won't be going here again.

Their technique and precision are truly flawless. The durability of their work consistently exceeds expectations, and my manicures last beautifully for three to four weeks. The results look elegant, feel comfortable, and maintain their quality without the issues I have experienced at other salons. One of the most impressive aspects of HaNa Nails is their focus on nail health. Since being serviced by Hana and Alyssa, I have noticed that my natural nails are stronger and healthier. The materials they use appear to be far less damaging than those used elsewhere, and that difference is clearly reflected in the condition of my nails. The customer experience is equally outstanding. Hana and Alyssa create an environment that is welcoming, comfortable, and relaxing. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine warmth make every appointment enjoyable. They also accommodate special requests with patience and grace, which reflects their dedication to both their craft and their clients. Their professionalism is evident in every detail: * Impeccable attention to detail * Clean workspace and sanitized tools * High quality products * Punctual appointments * Clear communication * Consistent business professionalism In my experience, their level of service is unmatched by other salons in the Koreatown area. Hana and Alyssa work seamlessly as a team, and their passion, patience, and dedication to excellence are evident in every visit. If you are looking for long lasting manicures that look and feel amazing, HaNa Nails is an outstanding choice. Hana and Alyssa are not only highly skilled professionals, they are also beautiful souls who genuinely care about their clients. It is always an absolute pleasure to be serviced by them, and I highly recommend HaNa Nails to anyone seeking quality, care, and exceptional results.

The professionalism and attention-to-detail is unmatched, and I've left both times incredibly happy with my manicure. First of all, they both do such beautiful work.

Her marbling and cat-eye work is excellent and she absolutely nailed what I was looking for. Second, the time and care that both Hana and Alyssa put in to make sure I was happy with the designs made the experience even better. I felt so comfortable and well taken care of. This is definitely my regular spot now. I don't know how I could go anywhere else after the experience I've had here.

    Explicit instructions ignored -- repeat injury to natural nails (possible state violations)…read more I am writing this review to document a serious and repeated nail injury and to warn others -- especially clients with natural nails. For context, I have been getting my nails professionally done for over 20 years, across many salons and technicians, and I have never experienced this type of pain, damage, or injury to my natural nails until coming here. Before my service began, I clearly and explicitly told both the nail technician and the owner's daughter that I did NOT want my natural nails filed thin. Despite this instruction, the same nail technician proceeded to over-file my natural nails anyway. This is now the second time this exact technician has done this to me -- once about a month ago, and again during my most recent visit. Each time, my natural nail beds were filed down to the point of redness, thinning, and pain, indicating damage to live tissue, not cosmetic filing. The technician used an electric file directly on my natural nail plate instead of hand filing, which in my opinion appears to be a time-saving practice rather than a safe or appropriate technique for natural nails. Over-filing with an e-file on natural nails is widely known to cause nail bed trauma and injury. Under California Board of Barbering & Cosmetology regulations, licensees are required to: * Perform services without causing injury or harm to the client * Avoid unprofessional conduct, including practices that endanger client health or safety * Use tools and techniques appropriate to the service being performed Based on my experience, this conduct may constitute unprofessional conduct and unsafe practice. After my nails were visibly injured, I was still charged an additional $30 just to over file and take off the nail polish from previous visit nails here . When I calmly asked the owner's daughter if I was really being charged after being injured by their employee, she responded "yes, ma'am." I paid nearly $135 total, even though only my toes were done and my fingernails were left damaged and painful. I did not argue, yell, or cause a scene. I simply paid and left. However, I will not return. If you have real/natural nails and care about nail health, I strongly recommend being cautious or choosing another salon. I also personally witnessed another client experience similar over-filing of her natural nails. This review is shared so others can make an informed decision. -- Review for Bloom Nails LA
