    Finished mani
    Catherine C.

    I called earlier in the day to request an appointment. Call didn't go through but I received a text instead - HOW NICE!! Requested a mani pedi and secured a 5PM appointment on a Sunday afternoon. What a beautiful minimalist style nail salon! Summer was my nail tech and I couldn't be happier with the service I received! My nails came out beautifully! Total visit was about 1.5 hours and less than $100 - including tip! I highly recommend!

    My nails were so short and brittle at my first appointment and this is 3 months in. They're so healthy now!

    I love this place! It's clean, the nail techs are really nice and they do a great job! So happy that I found a place in Pasadena that delivers consistently great service and amazing nails each and every time! Maple is so sweet and also somehow remembered not inly my preferred color and shape etc but everything we'd talked about and asked follow ups at my next appointments. Kinda want to gatekeep so she doesn't get too busy to see me, but also, she is awesome and deserves ALL the praise!

    Maple makes sure that I'm vacation ready!

    Congratulations on your second location, Lumi! Their new studio is the new neighbor to Oh Shiny and Dots Cafe, and shares a lot with them! Yay - parking is readily available! From beginning to end, each and every experience with Lumi is a dream. They have an online booking system through Vagaro that is accessible through the link on their Instagram page. It is quick and easy to book any artist or service that you'd like on any given date or time. I typically book back-to-back services (manicure and pedicure), and it's amazing! I have recently leaned towards gel manicures with no designs, but their artists are incredibly creative, so please out their Instagram page for their work and/or inspo! Whether I book with Crystal, Rebecca or Maple, the service is spectacular - in fact, above and beyond. I tend to have dry skin (due to excessive hand washing), and am appreciative with how mindfully they work to ensure that I am taken care of. It totally eases my anxiety, and I'd highly recommend any of Lumi's highly skilled artists. Tip: if you pay with cash, there's a stamp card option! :)

    Another great manicure w/design done by Mandy.

    I've visited their location off Lake a few times but was a bit far and parking is terrible. Since they opened the second location (closer to my house) I'm definitely going to visit more often! Plus side this location has way better parking. Showed a nail inspo and Mandy hit it out the park! Love my manicure!! Book w/them you won't regret it!

    TL;DR: Lumi Nail Salon is the best in LA -- Crystal and the team are true artists who never miss. I always leave obsessed with my nails! Lumi Nail Salon is truly the best! Crystal is an absolute artist -- she can make almost anything I dream up come to life on my nails. I've never once left disappointed; every set she's done has been beyond beautiful. The attention to detail, creativity, and care she puts into her work are unmatched. The whole team at Lumi is so talented -- everyone there is an artist in their own way. Whether I'm going for something minimalist or super intricate, they always deliver perfectly. I always walk out loving my nails and already excited for my next appointment!

    First time at Lumi and it was so great! The salon is beautiful and peaceful. I absolutely loved my Japanese gel from Mandy! She was so detail oriented and patient with me despite not having a super clear idea of what I wanted. She totally nailed it, pun intended. Plus is that parking was easy and next to the cutest gift shop and cafe!

    Hands down the BEST hard gel manicures and nail art! I've been to many nail salons, but this one truly stands out. The hard gel manicures are flawless and long-lasting every single time. The design work is next-level--no matter which tech you get, everyone here is incredibly talented and detail-oriented. I've brought in both simple and complex ideas, and they always exceed my expectations. The salon itself is super clean and beautifully maintained, with a modern, relaxing vibe. Plus, there's convenient parking, which makes the whole experience even more stress-free. If you're looking for stunning nails, expert-level designs, and a consistently great experience, this is the place. Highly recommend! Love Lumiii love you crystal

    I've been a Lumi Loyalist for 4 years now (!!) and honestly Crystal never misses. So glad she opened a second location- the whole vibe is so cute, clean, and calm. It's one of those places where you instantly feel like you're treating yourself just by walking in. Crystal always kills it with my nails, she's super precise, gentle, and just gets it. Even if I don't know what design I want, she somehow reads my mind and it always turns out perfect. They offer such a wide range of cateye colors and the nail charms are endless. All the Lumi girls at this location are talented too, you can literally sit with anyone and walk out feeling refreshed and put together.

    New location! Super bright space with ample parking. It's easy to book an appointment and most of the techs are very talented. Crystal, the owner, does super amazing work. I get Gel X manicures from her and she never disappoints. She executes your desired designs and the nails last. Highly recommend.

    LUMI CONTINUES TO SPARK JOY almost 4 years later....I have been going to Lumi, specifically Crystal, every month like clockwork since January 2022. I live in the IE and the drive out is worth every single dollar (although this new location is a few exits closer!). Crystal has always been meticulous when it comes to the quality of her work, and that has not changed despite both studios being consistently booked and busy. She's not only discerning when it comes to nail art and what would look good, but also when it comes to handpicking all the talented and skilled artists at her studios as well. I always get Japanese gel with designs (with the occasional gel x extensions for special events) and the way my nails are sooooo healthy and strong and unbreakable shocks all of my friends who get their nails done at other places. I will let my photos speak for themselves, but I know every time I go to Crystal it's not just about getting the design on the nails...she also does such an amazing job taking care of removal, filing them down, and maintaining the integrity and quality of your nails and making sure its at its best before getting to the designs. She's also very detail-oriented, never rushes you even if she's running behind, and you can tell she loves her craft because her work has only gotten more deft over the years, like she practices and keeps up to date on all the new techniques / products. Plus, she's always very sweet and patient with my crazy requests / ideas, is accommodating, and always communicative. Even when my nails grow out or there's a long time between appts the my nails / designs don't chip and they still look brand new! I can never go anywhere else, & I'd follow Crystal & Lumi anywhere and everywhere!

    Tomato nails!

    I've been going to Lumi Nails for about a year with Crystal and I swear everyone there including herself is so talented. I spent a long time searching for a nail studio that specialized in nail art and Asian nail designs and I've finally found them! They are reasonably priced and always replicate whatever design I show them, the proof is in the pictures! All of the ladies are so welcoming and the tv entertainment is chefs kiss. I've recommended my coworkers to this place and they make great gift card options! Love love this place, finally found my forever nail place

    I've had only amazing experiences here only! I was looking for a new nail studio after moving back from college in 2022 and found Crystal through Instagram! I haven't stopped going since! She does the best nails! I mean, just look at some of the nails she's done! My mom even comes with me and she's gotten her nails done from the other ladies before as well. They've always turned out amazing. Everything is top quality and all of the employees know what they're doing. They all have a good sense of style as well and can offer good advice should you be an indecisive person like me! Despite the salon being in Pasadena and me having to drive 1.5 hrs in traffic to get there usually, it's 100% worth it. And that says a lot since I hate driving with a passion. The shows that they put on while doing nails are also so entertaining! Vibes are awesome! 10/10 recommend!

    I highly recommend Lumi Nail Studio to everyone; I look forward to all my appointments here. The salon is very clean and comfortable and Lumi staff are kind and welcoming. I like intricate nails with lots of details and 3D design and my go-to artist is Crystal; she is an amazing nail artist who ALWAYS understands my ideas, knows what I like, and adds her own touch to make all my nails unique and breathtaking. My nails always came out better than I envisioned them- Crystal executes them flawlessly, I'd say even better than the inspo photos! Crystal is incredibly professional, detailed, and talented. I am lucky to have found my go-to nail place and artist.

She managed to fit me in and was so kind about it. From the moment I walked in, the salon felt clean, spacious, and welcoming. Chi did my pedicure, and she was amazing. Super friendly, funny, and very detail-oriented. She took her time, especially with the corners of my toes (which are always tricky for me), and finished with a relaxing massage. Ann did my Gel-X set, and she was just as wonderful. She really listened to the shape I wanted and took her time to make sure everything looked perfect. While checking out, I met one of the owners, Alex. He was so genuine and truly cared about my experience. He shared that they built the business from the ground up and are celebrating their third anniversary in August. You can really feel the pride he has in the shop. I rarely write reviews, but this place is a hidden gem in Pasadena. I wasn't planning on switching salons, but they definitely gained a new customer!

And frankly, the customer service varies depending on whether the one of the owners is present or not. I went in this past Friday, walked in at 6:40 pm, told the 2 girls at the counter that I wanted a pedicure and gel ex removal. The hostess said ok, so I proceeded to pick out a color. I sat and waited about 10 min, no one was saying anything, not even the guy who normally does my gelx, or the older lady who's usually in charge. Everyone was giving me side eye looks and rushing out the back door. I got the feeling of "she'll figure it out we're closing." It was a bit humiliating. Amy came and said she'd do my pedicure once she got free. I appreciated her so much for taking me on. When I asked her if anyone would be able to do my nails, she wasn't sure. I disclosed that I was having a surgical procedure the next morning and would appreciate if someone could take them off (per drs request). She took immediate action and went to the 2 young girls at the front desk. When she told them that it was an urgent request bc of my procedure, one of the girls replied with, "Well she should have came sooner." That was kinda hurtful bc little did she know that my procedure was emergency stat. And regardless of my procedure, if they weren't going to have time for me, they should have told me when I checked in, instead of having me wait, and I could have gone down the street to one of the other nail salons. Amy turned to another nail tech who was helping another client. Asked if she could accommodate, and yes she asked Vilan if he would be able to take them off and he did. I appreciated him for it. After my services were done, I left within the hour and would have taken 35 min overall had I been seen right away. I've been a loyal customer to Nailtique since they opened but that girls comment and their lack of communication upon check in was disappointing.
