    Day 1 cut/ infected toe
    Raquel G.

    Girl grab a glass of wine , sit down and enjoy this raw, unedited and honest review. My sister and I had been recommended to this place by her best friend. Our first visit went well. Smooth. We laughed, chose our colors & were assisted with kindness and a good regular nail clean up. But wait... the second time was a totally different story. We called in advance to schedule an appt for 2 , basic mani/ pedi NO COLOR. Absolutely nothing special but a good clean up. We arrived with 15 min to spare. They finally sat us down at the pedi chairs and we waited.... and waited.... & waited... after 1hr and me voicing that we HAVE to be out by 6:30 we were helped. HA! It gets better. When we were sat the water was HOT, feet turning RED hot. By the time they decided to assist us our water was COLD. The lady is doing my toes, cleaning up and she cuts me. I stay still and quite to avoid being further cut or hurt. I told her "it hurts. Did you get an ingrown?" She said "hurt? Yeah. Hurt. Okay." Then she ignores my wince and tries to hide my now bleeding toe. Girl when I say bleeding I mean BLEEDING! She quickly pats it & places some powder over it. We walked in for a regular mani/pedi (1hr max)... left nearly TWO hours later, with two unfinished manicure and a cut toe. There's more tea to this story but let's get to the real reason I'm here. Regardless of my efforts and painful cleaning sessions my toe has been struggling to heal. Turns out she slit the skin near my toe. It's become infected and painful to touch. Talk about REAL screams to get it cleaned. I'm on antibiotics to fight the infection and I have to clean it 3x a day. Please keep in mind the beautiful blue tone on my nails was done at home NOT at Kala Nails. I went back requesting a refund & they tried offering me a free pedi. Uhhhh, I kindly told them I will not be coming back. My terrible pedi- job was refunded. No money covers the dr visits, and painful cries. I had two trips planned. Disneyland AND a mini- getaway with my sister. I'm upset at the fact that I can't walk for long periods of time OR get to wear heels, boots, etc. Cute shoes? Yeah, it's a no. SAVE YOUR TOES AND SAY NO !

    Went in for a full set and pedicure but had to take off the gel polish first. While î was seated, getting the pedicure, the lady came to take off my nail polish. She conveniently filed and buffed the nails on my pants with no towel. All the while standing over me. When she was done, î told her î won't be getting my nails done anymore. When î was about to pay, she grabbed my card and went "how much tip do you want us to withdraw" The audacity tho. Definitely don't recommend.

    The grossness you'll get if you come here.

    Don't come to this place. I paid $60 for a crap gel pedi and mani. It's literally crap! I can't even look at my nails they are so gross. Save yourself the headache run in the opposite direction of this place!

    No wait. Very nice ladies. And my gel is still on no chips 4 weeks later. it is pricey but worth it they take their time. Got the classic French manicure.

    Lily is simply Amazing!!!
    Monique M.

    Lily is just wonderful! I went in last night 1 hour before they close and she welcomed me in no problem. Told me to have a seat and she would be with me shortly. I wanted matte nails and she was honest in telling me it wouldn't come out like the picture. She is very friendly. I recommend Lily 100% !

    Pink & White full set @Kala Nails.....Thanks Lily....I love them!!!
    Brandy S.

    My daughter and I were out running errands and looking for a spot to get our nails 'did' and came across this little gem of a place in the Target/Kohls shopping center on Corbin. Lily, she might be the owner not sure, was super nice and took us right away. It made me nervous that only one person was in there getting a pedicure and only two technicians were working on a SUNDAY....but we got a good vibe and decided to give them a chance. SO glad we did! My daughter and I both got pink n white....a little variation on the style due to our own preferences...but both turned out just as we wanted! Parking: private lot with ample parking Pricing: spa pedicures are only $15.00 and pink & white full set $30.00 Overall, great service, kind people, definitely coming here again!!!

    No wonder the place is empty. It sucks.
    Elizabeth P.

    Wouldn't recommend it. I would say go to JK nails in the valley instead of here. I got gel nails here and they began to turn black and bubble up so I came back the lady started to blame me and make up all this crap. In the end there are much better places. I highly recommend JK nails than here.

    First time doing my nails here and I am very happy how they turned out. Lily is super sweet and funny. She did such an amazing job with my nails. They have a variety of colors to choose from. Today I tried the gel nails and I love them. She has also been doing my eyebrows and I have to say now they look perfect. Definitely recommend this place. It's very clean and updated. Lily is very friendly and highly recommend asking for her.

    I love how Lily did my nails! The shape, color, and thinness! She does such a good job, I rarely have a nail break on me! I love having her do my nails and will continue to go here

    Lifting after 1 week.
    Cristina M.

    Get gel, they said. It will last longer they said. This is after 1 WEEK. I didn't cook, wash dishes, clean, or anything that would mess them up. Even if I had, it should not do this. The product they used advertises that it will last up to 21 days. I have 3 other nails that are starting to peel as well. Not worth the $25. I will NOT be coming back here.

    I was a walk-in fill around 230 on a tuesday.. Lily was free and saw me immediately. I would have appreciated her taking a little more care with my hands but she was working like a robot. Super quick and like she's been doing this for a couple decades. She piled on the acrylic quickly then used the Dremel tool to smooth them out which burned my nail beds a little.. I did have a nail that was much short than the rest and she rebuilt it very quickly and made then all pretty much the same shape... no nail brush or hand soap in the bathroom... i tipped 5 bucks, it was worth every bit of 21$ and Ill probably go back... i prefer the bare minimum so the work speaks for itself

    Uneven and bumpy coverage. No cuticle care even though I asked for it! Painted onto my skin too.

    When I first started going to Lily, they were broken and thin and "traumatized", as I was once told at a different shop.

    When I tell you Sophia ate down on my manicure and Ring did his big one on my pedicure--I was like…read morethank you, God! It had been about six months since my last mani-pedi. I'd been trying to grow out my toenails after one popped off (ugh), and I wanted everything to grow out evenly. Every time they'd finally hit the same length, one would break badly. I was trying to get that acrylic look using my natural nails, but one of them has been so long and wide that I finally gave in and decided to book an appointment last minute for a trip I was taking. It was around 5 p.m. on a Thursday, and most nail salons close between 6 and 7. I wasn't anywhere near the Valley, but I made my way to Northridge and walked in. I asked if they had time for a gel manicure and pedicure and the receptionist said they could take me in an hour. The place was super busy, probably because it was the day before Good Friday and Easter weekend. I grabbed something to eat nearby and came back at 6. Let me tell you, I'm obsessed with my nails. I got a gel manicure using Funny Bunny, which anyone who knows, knows it's a tricky polish because it's so buildable. Sophia was so patient -- she shaped my nails to perfection and she did four coats and made them look flawless. Ring did my pedicure and absolutely killed it. My toes feel so clean, and even though they're not the length or shape I ideally want yet, he worked with what I had and made them look amazing. I really appreciated the care he put in. The total was about $80 for both, which is pretty standard--but honestly, I don't mind paying that when I leave this happy with the service. I'll definitely be back and all of the staff were so sweet and kind!

    Horrible service…read more The woman at the front was a rude bit*h. I was the only woman of color & as I walked back all the employees looked at me & started talking in a foreign language. The woman who did my pedicure rushed through the job. When she was done, she told me to wait to let my nails dry. After 20 minutes & her never coming back, I put on my own shoes (everyone else was helped by their attendant) to go pay. I would give zero stars if I could.

    As someone that has been getting acrylic fancy nails for over two decades, this is THE BEST PLACE…read moreEVER!!! It is a family owned business which I think we all honor the most. John and Tracy are husband and wife. When I tell you that they are both beyond creative and talented, it doesn't begin to describe the level that they are on. They are good enough to complete in those fancy nail art design competitions. They use the best products out there and because of that, my acrylics last a month most of the time with no lifting or breakage whatsoever. They are two of the kindest people to ever work in customer service. They treat their clients like royalty and because of that, they've developed a clientele list that will last and stand the test of time. It is beautiful and exceptionally clean and hygienic in there. This level of care and professionalism is very hard to come by. Please check them out. I will add a picture, but keep in mind I'm not the most fancy.... They have a client for life in me and the countless people I have referred to them.
