Located inside Sunita's Threading & Hair Salon, in the same plaza as 7-11 with limited parking. I have been to this business twice now and am pretty disappointed with my most recent visit on New Year's Eve. I came here because a lady from my church highly recommended her and told me that she only charges $29 for both gel manicure and a pedi. However, the first time I came here, which was sometime back in August, I just wanted to have my gel manicure removed (done by another person at another nail salon). When I was getting my manicure removed, Lee told me that the price for gel manicure is $20 and a pedicure is $12 (but only an additional $10 if getting a gel manicure). She had originally told me it would cost me $6 to remove my gel manicure but then only charged me $5 instead. Anyways, on my next visit (NYE), I decided to get a French manicure and a pedicure (getting all dolled up for the up coming year). I made an appointment the day before to come in at 11 am. But when I came in, she was already working on 3 different people. I told her that I was here for my 11 am appointment and she said that I will have to wait (but she was laughing and smiling as she was saying it... typical Asian behavior when they do not speak the best English, they are just trying to be light hearted). I wished I had left but really wanted to get my nails done, so I just waited. Then eventually I was asked to sit at a chair around 11:35 am. Lee's husband began to soak my feet in a container of water and proceeded to trim my toe nails. He also did an amazing job of removing the calluses from my feet (probably the best treatment I have ever received to be honest). Anyways, eventually Lee came over to trim my finger nails and eventually put on my gel manicure and the nail polish for my toes. She had told me that the 2 ladies she was working on came late to their appointment and so this is why she had to start late for me. Those ladies came at 10:30 am for a 9 am appointment! That is so unheard of for any business to allow anyone to come so late for an appointment and still service them (my mom said it was probably because she does not have much business, which I have have to agree). I spent more money on my mani and pedi than those 2 ladies combined and think that was incredibly rude and really should have just walked out instead of patiently waited. Anyways, after getting my gel manicure, it chipped 4 days later! This is only my 2nd time getting a gel so I was really surprised because the first time I had gel (at another salon), it lasted about 4 weeks before it chipped. The chipping was most likely due to my nails not curing long enough under the UV light. And days afterwards, it kept chipping and looking pretty horrible. And my pedicure could have done with an additional coat and wished it was more even. This was definitely not worth the $40 I paid, but I guess you truly get what you pay for. Price break down: $20 Gel Manicure $4 French Tip $10 Pedicure $6 Tip (yea I was being quite generous, especially after waiting) -------------- (Total= $40) I do want to mention that Lee was very friendly and so was her husband. So I do feel bad giving a bad rating, but I honestly would never come back here again. By the way, I do want to also mention that I do not feel that this place is very sanitary. The same pumice stone used to sloth my feet was the same one used to do the same to the other customers (gross!!) I did not see the stone cleaned between uses (I don't think you can even clean it good enough between uses of different people either) and also this callous remover machine that was used was not cleaned between uses. Being that this is a small little operation inside of a threading hair salon, I am not surprised that it isn't clean (well at least thinking back, not at the time when I came here to get serviced). I also do want to mention that I am not a fan of her inconsistent pricing. She has a menu board of her prices but does tend to change the pricing based on the people she knows. I am not a fan of that. read more

Lee Manicurist - A week later & mani still looks fresh. Lee and her husband are the best for a mani and pedi - Nail Technicians Near Me - Duarte, California

I love this husband and wife team. They truly go above and beyond their service. Every time I go I feel like we've known each other for a long time. They really take their time to do their work. Their massages are the best. I've changed several nail salons but after I've gone here the first time, I've been coming since. The place could use some modern decor but it's not their fault. They only rent out their space. But other than that, price is affordable for an excellent service and I tip them 30% because it's well deserved. read more

Truth is these two husband and wife are super nice, do a great then most, and take their time. The rates are super inexpensive. The pedicures are very meticulous. I've been going now for three years now. The place is not very nice looking at all. They don't update it so it feels old, but the service is 5 stars. read more
