    Nail set

    I had a wonderful experience at this salon today! The nail technician did an incredible job on my nails. they look fantastic. She was not only skilled but also incredibly friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this salon for both excellent service and a pleasant atmosphere!

    It was nice to walk into a nail salon and it not be overwhelmed by different smelling aromas and not feel like you were being talked about in a foreign language or feel like you were being forced to get extra add-ons. I was hesitant at first to buy their package on Groupon because of the photos, it looked so glam and posh and I don't see myself that way but I'm glad I put that thought aside and indulged myself to a fabulous treat. The place is decorated with fab and flair, it will make any woman feel like royalty sitting there with your Champagne, Mimosas, or water when it is freely offered. The girls were attentive, courteous and friendly with warm personalities. I believe I found my new manipedi spot. Thank you ladies for your service. My only negative on this was at the pedicure stations. The step is a little too high for someone with short legs like me and the tile can be a little slippery when stepping down.

    I went in for a gel manicure on Sunday. That night some of my nails started breaking from the tips. Then by Tuesday, the gel came off of two nails. The rest of them are lifting and it hasn't even been a week! The gel is extremely lopsided. The UV lamp must have been on high because it was SCALDING! It's overpriced for the poor job they do. $40 for gels that don't even last 3 days. BYE. Finally, the girls who work there are extremely unprofessional: -The receptionist was wearing booty shorts. -Some of them had hickeys. -They were playing a crime show that had rape content. -They were looking at Facebook posts and reading them out loud. One said "less stress, more sex" as they all laughed. -Not one greeted or talked to me. Save your money by not coming here.

    Pedicure $45 Worth it

    I loved my visit. My morning was very hectic and I really needed a good pedicure. I was helped by the sweetest person ever. She was very kind and gentle with my feet. I was so relaxed and she offered me a mimosa. My feet were taken care of and she took her time. My color came out so smooth and I love how my toe nails were shaped! First time experience. I will be going back to her! I didn't get her name but I did get to find out she's only there Thursday-Sunday. :D Thank you for the great experience! Lots of colors to choose from!

    Nice place. Reason why I choose to go here, close to my living space but also my regular nail tech for almost 2 years was on maternity leave and I just really needed my claws couldn't wait anymore. The vibe there is well I didn't feel good. Usually there's some kind of connection between the client and the nail tech. I got helped out by Grisela (spelling might be wrong) she's good. Liked the shape of my nails but not the length and she informed me it would be $5 to re-add length since she's cutt the nails already. I like how my nails came out but not the length.

    This place is so beautiful but I was so disappointed by the unwelcoming unfriendly staff. It was more than I usually spend and would have no problem spending extra if the experience was as nice as it looks. My girl who did my toes made up for it but was already over the ride personality of margarita who did my fill! I was also never offered a mimosa or even water! So sad

    Very very cool inside

    I feel bad because I don't want to Give a star but I'll have to give a one. Due to poor service .Well got here at 11 and we are still waiting there is. One pedicure girl and one nail girl. You would think that on this buisy day they would have more the. One person working. We trying this place our cuz new and Cute but so far not impressed with the wait etc. we will See after they do our feet. Keep u posted ....... we it's now 12 and we still waiting about to get up and go else where there's more people and the girl doing feet isn't watching tv when she hA tons of people waiting. This is poor poor service. The girl at the front said she has one last then you guys no telling us we had to wait per appointments too we wasted over a hour sitting there I wouldn't go here nor am I going to try it. We ended up leaveing .

    my girl linda at the salon always gets down! they are pretty quick, always best to call ahead and make an appointment

    I love this place it was so cute so Chic the girls were so amazing so sweet & patient answered all my Questions 1010!!!

    Charged me $45 for a fill with plain gel polish. No designs or anything to fancy. While waiting for my turn the staff at the desk gossiped about a client as soon as she walked out of the door. Not cool. Makes me wonder what they say about me as soon as my back is turned. Won't be returning.

    I have received about 4-5 nails services here. I am VERY picky when it comes to how my nails are done and often take forever to choose colors etc. yes I'm one of those high maintenance clients. Each time I get either a gel manicure and/or gel pedicure. Every single one of the nail techs have been so patient and willing to do my nails exactly how I like them. Every time I have went the ladies have always been super welcoming and friendly. My best friend had to get her full set fixed that was done somewhere else and they did an incredible job! They actually have down to earth conversations with you and take time to be detailed when doing your nails. Even when I go without my best friend or have a different technician I always have a great experience. Yesterday I went to get a gel manicure like always and a new girl helped me. Although she was super sweet and my nails were ok the edges and sides of my nails we're missed. I called back today and they got me back in today at my convenience and no charge. They were so willing to make it right and I really appreciated it so much. After I went back today my nails were fixed and they look awesome! I have went to so many salons around Bakersfield and this one by far has been the most comfortable and accommodating. Prices are decent, and everything there is very sanitary. On a side note I'm so sad that Becky....who is AWESOME, will be leaving next week to continue her nursing degree. I highly recommend LivLav, you will not be disappointed with your services! These ladies are TALENTED!

    Full set after 4 1/2 weeks

    Second time going and was overall pretty good. They are extremely clean and nice. The the overall shape and style I wanted were there but I messed up when choosing my colors. Linda was great super nice and helpful and her work was great. If you want a great experience and nails that last this is the place to go to.

    Do you have to ask for soemthing to drink or do they only offer it to special clients?

    Usually offer you something to drink water/mimosa but sometimes it is busy so you can ask if they haven't offered :)

    Do they do acrylic toenails pedi?

    Yes

    Chelsea has her own studio yay!!! I have been going to her…read morefor almost 2 years on a monthly basis for my lash extensions because she is the absolute best. My lashes always look so full and beautiful and custom to my Asian eye shape and preference. They are soft and feel natural and last much longer through other places. I can shower, get facials, swim in pools and beaches with them lasting through easily up to 3-4 weeks. I get fills every 2-3 weeks just to keep them full all months long. She is also great about taking care of my natural lashes so between fills or wanting new full sets I have plenty of healthy lashes to renew! She moved out to Southwest Bakersfield into her own studio at Sola Salon Studios. It's a cute location with other private studios and so you have privacy and are able to fully relax as Chelsea makes you beautiful without interruption or rush. She takes her time and is so professional and sweet. She is fairly priced especially for the work you get. By appointments only right now and she always makes sure you get time for your fills to keep looking beautiful for months. I will keep coming to Chelsea as long as I live in Bakersfield. Unfortunately I move soon and wish I could take her with me but she did promise to help me find someone in my new city and State! A true queen of lash extensions!!!

    Came here to get my lashes done because of the 5 good reviews. The first two times were…read morefine....wasn't great quality but wasn't bad either. The one gripe I have is that she doesn't tell you what the cancellation fee is before charging your card. Come to find out--it's like $300 something dollars which is ridiculous!!! Seems hella shady!! I don't know who does business like this but I'm pretty sure this isn't right!!! Very disappointed. The service and the quality really doesn't justify the price tbh! I would not recommend this place to anyone! There are many other lash boutique in Bako that is way better for better pricing!!
