Nails done by Anna  Acrylic full set with gel polish
Cynthia V.

I've been in many time before to get a mani and pedi. They've always done a great job. So I figured I'd make an attempt to get a full set my them. I've had pretty consistent bad services with nail extensions to the point that my friends and family find it comedic with the luck I've had. I've partly have accepted it might be because I was just not blessed with dainty feminine hands. But Anna did it!!! She restored my faith in getting my nails done and being able to feel "pretty". Which by the way that was the description I asked for. "I just want something pretty". Shes a mind reader. Also I've had experiences with of the receptionist and which both were extremely welcoming and genuinely kind. 10/10 recommendation. I haven't taken the time to write a review in yeaaaarrsss if that means anything to ya :)

what I got
Nita P.

Wow! I came here right after my horrible experience with another salon to see if they can salvage the monstrosity I received at the other location. I was welcomed with open loving arms even when they were experiencing an unforeseen power outage. They communicated with me to be open and honest, they reassured me they were going to take care of me and I sure was. I left with a smile on my face. Joanne I believe is the owners name is beyond wonderful and you can tell she loves her profession, nail techs and customers. Even being under extreme pressure she put everyone before herself and still delivered the same customer service she would have if she had power. I left with satisfied and she even made my man feel good about himself. You will be well taken care of here.

Sang did an amazing job with my nails! She put a lot of attention to every detail and was super sweet. I didn't get the receptionists name, but she was also a sweetheart! Amazing first experience here and I will definitely be coming back.

Great service, amazing nails. I had Anna as my nail tech, and she was very friendly and collaborative. She was able to make great suggestions for what I wanted and was very transparent about the pricing of the different options she gave. And the nails turned out amazing!! Joanna was great as the front desk person too. I asked for a same day appointment and she got back to me within 15 minutes. Throughout the appointment she was very friendly and hospitable, asking if I wanted any drinks and such.

I definitely received the hard gel manicure service requested and more at Nail Garden. The receptionist gave excellent customer service and nail tech's treatment was superb. The low mellow music was also relaxing. I'm going to try the latte at my next appt.

This business is in my previous nail salon so I hesitant to give it a try. Today my curiosity brought me in to book services for me and my husband. The interior design is beautiful and relaxing. Joanna was professional and friendly while explaining the services and policies for tipping and Apple Pay. I look forward to our services this weekend.

Very relaxing. Van was very gentle with my pedicure. She checked in with me to make sure I was happy with the results. I got a French tip and it came out perfect

The customer service was great. The app for scheduling appointments was practical and easy to use. I would say they are on the expensive side. I payed $87 (not including tip) on my short acrylic set with gel. The app said that a full acrylic set was $65, but I got a call 2 hours later saying they forgot to charge me an extra $22 for the gel.

Anna is amazing and knowledgeable! Thank you for a job well done. They take walk-ins and you can Venmo or Zelle nail technician tips if you forget to bring cash like me.

The ending result

Susan's facial is truly wonderful and her positive energy adds so much to the experience. I had an…read more80 minute facial and it was one of the most relaxing treatments I've had in a long time. The facial focused on detoxifying the face using a jade gua sha technique, which noticeably reduced puffiness and inflammation. The ear lymphatic drainage was a unique touch that made a visible difference. The session also included a relaxing hand, shoulder, neck, and foot massage. Susan uses Murad products and my skin felt refreshed and radiant afterward. The heated bed was incredibly comfortable and the private setting made the experience even more restorative. Extractions were gentle, so if you're looking for something more aggressive with a lancet or needle, this may not be the place. But for a soothing, high quality facial with real results, this is a standout.

[Review #688] 2022 Yelp 100 Challenge (9/100)…read more I've been a client of Susan Halpern since 2014 when she worked at Murad Inclusive Health Spa (refer to Review #111) where I first started my recurring monthly facial treatments in 2002. I lost touch with Susan after the spa closed, & it took me another 5 years to find & reconnect as a client of Forever Young By Susan in 11/2020. Her "studio" is located in The Face Place & More Skin & Body Care, sharing the space with Linda Hirsch, Cloud 9 Massage, SkinFX, & Advanced Skincare By Marilyn. Services include anti-aging/acne facials (Luminesce, Acne Complex, Sun Undone, Resurgence, Back, Youth Building, Chinese Gua Sha, AHA Rapid Exfoliator, Men's) & waxing (Chin/Lip/Sideburns, Brow/Underarm, Traditional Bikini, Playboy Bikini, 1/2 Leg, Full Leg/Back/Chest). The facials are customized to client's needs & 50+ min. facials include additional services. I used to alternate between Luminesce, AHA Rapid Exfoliator, & Resurgence as a Murad client. Since reconnecting, I've been booking the CHINESE FACIAL GUA SHA (detoxification of face, neck, & shoulders with special jade gua sha technique; combats aging, reduces inflammation & puffy eyes, decreases pore sizes, help speed up cell regeneration, reduces stress) on a monthly basis to clean my face healthy & glowing. The daily life workload & stress, in addition to COVID-19, I really need this monthly getaway, even if it's just a small fraction of time. I'm usually just on time or a couple minutes behind, Susan always opens & greets me at the door with a smile (a huge + in my book that I'm not delayed because that cuts into my paid time)! =) The space is private -- just us -- but I always wear my mask & make sure I'm healthy before going even if we're vaccinated & boosted, & there's a temperature check at the entrance. The intimate room is clean & well-organized with dimmed lighting, comfy & warm bed, & relaxing background music to promote a serene & zen treatment. Before starting, Susan did a thorough analysis (to make sure this is the best facial for my current needs). As mentioned in the previous review, a good esthetician should recommend a different method than your standard MO because your skin changes with age, sun exposure/the elements, etc. Susan ALWAYS does just that at each appointment, adjusting the technique, timing of each process, etc. And if you're a new client, she explains what product & process in each step. At times, I don't even have to point out the problem areas because she spots these changes under the magnifying glass & adjust the treatment to rebalance & rejuvenate my skin. Sometimes Susan focuses more on my face, & other times when I'm rather stressed/tensed, she spends a little more time on the mini massage to remove the kinks & knots in my shoulders & neck. I'm highly sensitive to touch (= extremely ticklish), yet she skillfully maneuvers over these stress points with ease without my breaking out into delirious laughter. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Only 1 other professional, Francine (also from defunct Murad), was able to give me a massage without me squealing or squirming. Under Susan's proficient care & deft hands, the extraction process was minimal in discomfort that I can nap through the facial process when I'm tired. Most recently, I've been awake through my facials to chat in Cantonese. It's so nice to find someone who can speak the language so I can strengthen my Chinese roots, help me with common idioms & phrases, etc., bond over upbringing & familial care, etc. =) Comfort, quality, & care is what Forever Young By Susan is all about. Susan incorporates Eastern & Western techniques to detox & take care of the my skin issues that leaves me with dewy, glowing skin! I highly recommend Susan for your facial treatments. So sit back & relax... you're definitely in good hands (pun intended). ;-)

I went to Aveda Vicara in El Segundo last week with really high hopes because I've always had great…read moreexperiences with Aveda salons in the past. Unfortunately, this experience was incredibly disappointing. I showed the first stylist multiple reference photos of what I wanted, but she ended up adding a very dark root color to my already lightened hair, which was the complete opposite of the look I asked for. After expressing my concerns, the salon did have another stylist step in to help correct it, which I appreciated, although I waited nearly two hours in between. The second stylist made me feel much more comfortable and did improve the situation, but I still left unhappy with my hair overall. The correction consisted of using a color remover on the roots and applying toner to the rest of my hair, and I was charged $265 for it. At the end of the day, my hair looked better than what the first stylist did but still nowhere near what I originally asked for or envisioned. I'm leaving this review because I think communication and transparency are incredibly important, especially with color services. What upset me most was not just the outcome, but the way the situation was handled overall. I understand that corrections can take time and effort, but if I was going to be charged $265 for a corrective service after my hair was initially mishandled, that should have been clearly communicated to me beforehand. I truly wanted to love this salon and leave feeling taken care of, but unfortunately I left feeling disappointed, uncomfortable, and unhappy with the overall experience.

During a job deployment, I went to a different waxer in a different state. Yeah, I am sticking to the best. From missing hair to using cheap hard wax, other waxers/studios just miss the mark. Let's jump right into this review. Brazilian Studio is located in the South Bay area off of Artesia Blvd, few blocks from Hawthorne Blvd. What waxing do I get - Brazilian :) Pros 1. Professional. Personable. Fast. Reasonable. Knowledgeable. Erika knows what she is doing and does it well. 2. Variety of areas you can get waxed. Brazilian (check), arms (check), legs (check), underarms (check). You want to be hairless, Brazilian Studio is here for all your hairless desires. 3. Free parking in the back of the studio. Metered street parking available as well. 4. Erika is always on time. In the five plus years I have been coming to her, I have waited 3 to 5 minutes twice as she finished up with a client. Golden stamp for punctuality. 5. She gets you smooth like a baby's bottom. 6. She communicates effectively. If you can't get an appointment on-line she is receptive and responsive to texts/calls. No cons. Except, she stays booked and busy but that is a testament to her work ethic and product, your hairless body areas. I am a loyal, repeat customer. I just don't want her to retire.

I walked in sweaty and terrified after watching videos of waxes and imagining the worst pain ever. I've hurt myself worse by shaving than what I experienced today.

I will absolutely be recommending my friends and family see her and she's got a new repeat client in me. Thank you, Erika for making my first experience so quick and comfortable.
