I wanted to like this salon because the location is convenient, there's plenty of parking, and the prices are reasonable. Unfortunately, the actual experience was disappointing enough that I won't be returning. The service felt very rushed from start to finish, and the overall professionalism of the staff was poor. The employees looked unkempt, dirty, worn-out clothes, messy hair, and generally like they had just rolled out of bed and needed their first cup of coffee for the day. It did not inspire confidence in the cleanliness or quality of the salon. At first glance, the shop appears fairly clean, but what I witnessed during my appointment completely changed my impression. One of the manicurists dropped a tool on the floor, casually picked it up, placed it back on her cart, and then used it on my nails a few minutes later without sanitizing it. That is completely unacceptable and extremely unsanitary. Cleanliness and proper sanitation should be the bare minimum at any nail salon. Based on what I saw, I seriously think the health inspector should take a closer look at their cleaning and sanitizing practices. Convenient location and affordable prices are not enough to make up for poor hygiene and careless service. Never again. read more

When I first started here, my nails were sent home shiny and pink Now everytime I show up they do less and less It appears that these folks think that because I'm a man that I don't understand what a real Mani-Pedi is supposed to be There should never be a difference in service based on the operator's assessment of a client and what the operator thinks they can get away with. read more

I came in for a simple pedicure, and ended up with a painful toe infection. Now I'm dealing with swelling, throbbing, an urgent care bill, antibiotics, etc. A pedicure is supposed to be relaxing, not a health risk. I strongly recommend paying attention to the sanitation practices here. Your toes will thank you! read more

First time just got eyebrows done and lady did great job. The next time I went back just for nails. Made an appointment. the guy rushed through on my nails and didn't feel like doing it the proper way by taking off the polygel first. I told him I trusted him and to put whatever was gonna make my nails the strongest . So he recs dip powder. My nails were literally bending with dip powder on! (I've had dip powder before and your nails absolutely should not be bending) Less than 16 hours later One totally breaks. The next morning another one breaks. I had to go back the next day and it took the other lady almost an hour to fix the 2 nails bc of what a terrible job the young guy did. I went back a second time to give one last chance. Hoping I'd get the lady who fixed his crappy job the first time. I did get her. I just got a basic gel manicure because I didn't wanna drop a bunch of money like last time for poor quality. I had her cut all my nails to make it easy. Literally less than 48 hrs later gel mani chipped on 2 fingers. Unlikely I will ever go back here again because I can't keep wasting time having to go back one to two days later for them to fix something that should be lasting two weeks. read more

I came here after my sister went and got a acrylic fill. I asked for Dylan and all I have to say is WOW! He did an amazing job on my nails! I've gotten my nails done with acrylics for years and I can say that he did the absolute best work anyone has done. There is not a single that I could point out. He took his time so it's not a good place if you're in a rush to get a fill, but I wasn't in a hurry and I live around the corner. I am always going to Dylan from now on! read more

Whenever I come here I am always greeted with a welcoming attitude. The salon is very clean, and gets pretty busy. I love coming to Jennifer, because she is very detail oriented, takes her time, and really listens to your wants and needs. What's convenient is they have parking in the plaza, and they have free additional parking underneath the plaza as well. I couldn't recommended this place more! read more

I have been going to M&B Nails for over 18 years. Van does a great job on my acrylic nails. More recently I have gone to Amy for a pedicure as well. She too is great. Love both of them. read more

This used to be my go to spot, however they've become really careless and effortless. When the lady filed my nails she wasn't even looking at them and then when I told her they're too point and to make it rounds she got mad that I was telling her how to do her job. Also filed my nails so crooked i had to come hone and fix it myself. They do a really rush job and never take the time to actually do a clean job. Won't be coming back unfortunately. read more

Came here for the first time and not going back ever. Cindy is soooooo rude! She did a terrible job on my toes and when I asked her to clean the polish off my skin she got mad and started yelling at me why I didn't get a pedicure and did color change. Unbelievable!! If you go here makesure Cindy doesn't help you. my friend who did a manicure with her was also unhappy. So regardless if it's mani/pedi or color change she's not good and is extremely rude. I must add Jenny was so nice and super sweet, did a great job with my gel manicure! read more

I almost don't want to post because i still want to get in with no wait! I am a girl and love shiny sparkles so when someone told me they have unicorn dust I had to go check it out. Here's a photo. You can get it over any gel (I think it's a chrome topper for an extracharge of $10) and it looks amazing and lasts! I keep dreaming up new colors. This one I posted is to mimic and underwater mermaid. Love it! read more

The manager is the rudest woman I've ever seen! She's so mean and unprofessional! Never going back to this salon and wish I could've give them even lower than one star. I was 5 mins late and she gave me the worst attitude! Then sits me on pedicure chair for mani (that's all they have) which is was too uncomfortable for a client reaching hands everywhere. She starts removing my gel with the electric file and not even just filing the surfacing going all the way through removing the whole nail polish with that which will damage the nail. I kindly asked her not to do so and use the normal file and wrap my nails but she completely ignores me and removes everything with that. I have very thin fragile nails and god knows how worse they are after this terrible experience with her. I asked her if I can at least turn on the pedi chair for a massage and obviously she said no. All that attitude she gave me and at the end her job was the worst ! Did a gel mani she took so long to do it , they're all already chipped after 2 days. The machine wasn't drying them at all. I still was stupid enough to tip her way too much 7 dollars on a 35 disaster mani and didnt even hear a thank you! Then Right after I left they were so Matt and uneven I went back To her and she was like you pressed your hand between your cars door !! Why the hell would I even do that? NEVER EVER GOING BACK TO THIS SALON! Please don't support them! There are tons of better ones with much faster service and nicer more polite staff read more

My nails are always gorgeous and jlo is the best @ it. She is so patient and takes her time to deal with my ingrown on my toe definitely would recommend this place. read more

I have been going to M&B salon through the Friend of mine for a years now, I love this place! One of reason that I like to go there is free parking and easy to find spot. They are so friendly and doing a great job, they are all professional and care about their clients time. I love serina, her job is amazing! The only thing they need to fix is, try to speak more English! That's why I gave them 4 starts. read more

My mom got me a spa mani pedi gift certificate. After seeing some bad reviews I was a bit concerned but I didn't want to waste the gift. I went in with good vibes though and had that returned. They were very kind and sweet. I had a wonderful experience. The salon is also very clean and pristine. Highly recommend. read more

Dude, wtf? Came back here yesterday with kid in tow and the prices changed. So, kids pedi is now $10? Why did they charge me $12 last time? Nothing changed. Is this based on moods? My technician sped thru my pedi, and didnt even file my nails. I just felt that she was in a rush. At $14, ok, I can understand, but you know what, do it right! And on top of that, she kept trying to upsell me. Manicure? No. 10 min extra massage? No. UGH. Meh. I'll go back to my BH place. Whateves. You really do get what you pay for. read more

Pedicure in a bucket. Rough on the cuticles. Paint on my skin. Worst acrylic nails I've ever had.

WORST NAIL SALON EVER. RUDE WORKERS AND HORRIBLE SERVICE. i came 6 days ago and my nail popped off after 3days. she charged me $7 to fix a single nail that i didn't even break and didn't even use the right nail color so now i have a whole different nail than the rest of my set. if you want to rip your hairs out one by one and get scammed this is a great place for you! read more

Don't. Go. Here. I don't know how to emphasize jt more. I came it for my 11:00am apt and was waiting till 11:40- then when we sat down, the water was dirty and dusty. Then she brought the towel here from her last client. I can't ever come here again. (It also smells bad) read more

As much as it's convenient to come here and I love the ladies, I don't think it's worth it. I was overcharged two times and when I mentioned it, they said they can't do it right away or can take it as a "tip". This is not acceptable. I don't think I'll be going back again read more

Thank you Tina for the best gel mani, the best pedicure, and the very best waxing in all of Los Angeles!

Wow! Some of the other reviews go back so many years....I found this strip mall nail shop in 2003. I was a regular for over a year when I moved out-of-state. I can't even begin to describe how I longed for MB while I was away, as the only places where I was living was INSANELY priced - even at that time. I was so pleased to be home and back with MB by holiday season, 2005. When I first came to MB, Chi was wonderful, alas, she left around the time I did, and unlike me, never returned. When I came back, I bounced to whomever was available when I walked in, for about a year. All the girls were wonderful! At some point, I started working with Lien -- and I became her regular. She did a great manicure, an awesome pedicure, and the longer I've been with her, the more of my needs she has taken care of. When I realized MB offered waxing, I started using that service, leaving another professional who cost more. When they offered massage, I stopped looking for massage salons, and get a should run as my nails dry. More than that, over the years, Lien has stepped up to be the "All-in-One". Lucy does a great job with wax. But when my schedule changed, Lien handled it and does a great job, also. More than all of the above, I am not great with preplanning things like manicures/pedicures/wax/etc.....and most of the time, if I call Lien, she will find a way to fit me in. I tend to feel bad because I can't always afford to give Lien as much business as I used to (I used to come weekly, but in the tough economy and a subsequent layoff, my visits have dropped to quarterly) but she is so incredibly wonderful that she has even called me when *too* much time has gone by, just to see if I'm ok. She knows there have been tough times in my life, in more ways that just finances, and she goes out of her way to be an angel in disguise! So, GO SEE LIEN.....and everyone else at MB Nails! PS - parking can be tight, but there is an underground garage. PPS - I find the prices at MB to be in-line or lower than other salons. It's been a long time since I went elsewhere, but I remember going to places that would charge $8 for a manicure -- sounds amazing until you realize all they are doing is slapping on nail polish. For a $23 mani/pedi (no spa) my nails are cut, shaped, cleaned, and colored and I even get a few moments of a wrist and ankle massage. read more

I've been coming to MB Nails on and off for many years. The best mani/pedi place In WLA. Holly makes sure everyone is well taken care of. Amy just gave me an awesome pedicure which was a major job since I haven't had a pedicure all winter. Now I can't wait to bring out the sandals. Thank you Amy. read more

These women do an incredible job! They take their time and actually care what your nails look like when you walk out. They never ever chip and last so long. Pretty affordable, they raised their prices after COVID but it's totally fair considering they were closed for so long and still affordable. Call to make an appointment but they do walk ins and right now they're not too busy so you may be able to just walk in. Please support this small business you won't regret it! read more

Absolutely loved the experience! Highly recommend it. You will not regret. Attentive, patient, great results.

Van is the absolute best at creating beautiful natural acrylic nails. Also she is just a good and kind person. I don't think I will ever trust anyone else with my nails. read more

The manager of the shop is by far the rudest lady ever. They make you pay for certain services that you didn't ask for. Besides this i had the worst mani & pedi ever. Nailpolish came off within 2 hours. My nails look like crap. 45$ down the drain. Whenever i tipped a 5$, just for the idea of it, since i actually didn't want to tip at all, the manager gave me a dirty face and said "5 dollars only?". Never coming back! read more

While everyone was lovely, the gel manicure I received was the worst one I have ever gotten at any nail salon. My cuticles are a mess, the polish is a mess at the cuticle line and honestly need to pay to get them redone elsewhere. They were very busy and the work was rushed. Super bummed out as my nails were for an event. Won't be returning. read more

I've been going to MB Nails for nearly 8 years and I have never had a bad experience. It's a one stop shop for me, i get a mani/pedi and waxed. All the girls are great, but Tina is the one I go to; her work is bar none. She's in high demand, so an appointment is necessary. It's great work and inexpensive, how can you beat that?! read more

For a pedicure, thisplace is great...a little pricier than most salons on westwood blvd. But the extra $5 to get the dead skin off is worth it and the ladies really concentrate on your feet and nails. The extra foot massage is not good and not worth the money at all. The sterilize all the utensils in front of you and are not too chatty or loud. read more

Staff is friendly but nails were awful. I can't stop crying over them. I tried explaining so many times how to fix it and failed to do so. Would never come back. read more

I started to come to MB nails because one of my sister's close friends took me here and they did an amazing job! I've gone here ever since. They always massage my hands and feet and they always do each step in giving me a beautiful mani/pedi : they get rid of my cuticles, they add oil and lotion, and they do whatever it is they do to make sure my nails look beautiful again! I trust this place a lot and the prices are amazing :) $23 for mani and pedi is real good PLUS they do a great job with your nails. I usually have one person doing my toes and another on hands so I def. tip both of them like $3-4 :) I didn't give them 5 stars because I do question their cleanliness with the utensils. i havent had any problems with it yet but I usually just see them clean it with a towel and put it back into their tool box :/ I do kinda think it's pretty gross lol I dont want anyone else's nasty nail residue on my hands and feet... i do love this place tho ;) read more
