    February Marbled Nails
    Bex Q.

    Uhmm... I waited forever to come here to get my nails done. I'm so glad it survived Covid considering the beauty industry was unfairly targeted by our governor, but that's neither here nor there in this review. I love, love, love the ambiance, the service, and the end result, my nails! A huge plus is it is both woman and minority owned. I am less partial to it being vegan, but I do love that my life isn't being cut short by the smell of cheap polish! Each month I've gone in to get a custom gel nail art piece created by Janis and I'm grateful she's into doing whatever because I make decisions all the time. It's nice when a decision can be made for me because I trust her vision for me for the month.

    Off white gels (this was taken at home they don't have dogs there unfortunately lol)

    I love this place so much! The girls are so sweet. I went for my first time yesterday and they have gained a new client for life! Their covid protocols are perfect and they made it look cute even with the plastic safety barriers. Could not recommend Nail Kitchen more.

    Gel mani by Jaimie

    I've been getting my nails done with Jamie and Janis for probably a year now and they both are great! I love that Janis makes the scrub and body butter herself with nontoxic ingredients - not to mention they are so hydrating and leave my skin feeling so soft. They just opened back up and I felt super safe with all of their extra COVID precautions. I got a neutral gel mani done by Jamie and she did a great job!

    My girlfriend get her nails done all the time here, and they look really nice! They do an amazing job! Makes me want to hold her hand more often lol

    Nail Kitchen by Janis is the only place I go to for my nails, and have for almost five years now. Why would I go anywhere else? Quiet, sparkling boutique salon, ethically run with exclusively green and clean products that look great and also do not harm the environment. Plus a small business with reasonable prices for the high level of service and true nail artists! I LOVELOVELOVE Janis and Jaimie both though I mostly book with Janis since I've known her this long ("oldie" client ;)). Especially now in pandemic times, I am grateful I have always been someone who gravitated towards non-crowded, quiet and small places. Support small businesses who take such white gloved care of clients!

    gel manicure took about 1 hour and 15 minutes including a fantastic wrist and hand massage

    Ask the Community - Nail Kitchen by Janis

    Can an oxy student get a discount on a pedicure? or is it manicure only

    Hi! Currently Occidental students/staff gets a discount only for the oxy manicure.

    Do you take walk-ins or by appointment only?

    We are by appointment only. You can look at availability and book online via our website.

    Are you fully booked until late September?

    How much is a gel manicure?

    Sale promos are big savings. Problem is out of stock frequently. Shipping dates claimed run late…read more Ordered 8 bags of pistachios online. Walgreens has no fulfillment warehouse to speak of. Im in Los Angeles. Walgreens could not put this order together locally. Coming from New Jersey. Ridiculous

    THIS PHARMACY SUCKS HARDER THAN A POOL FILTER IN FLORIDA! *No offense to the rest of the store I…read morelike Walgreens* The only reason I still use them is because I enjoy making them do the job they get PAID for. Everyone seems to give up but the KEY is PERSISTENCE until you get what you want! (Not entitled, simply expecting the bare minimum from a business) They WILL give you crap about the prescription not being ready, or being unable to check the accuracy of the order delivery ? SMH ‍ TIP : Make them transfer your prescription to a pharmacy who has it in stock via their confirmation by call. You can get it filled faster and INSURE they call themselves, please don't let them redirect you, or gaslight you into thinking that it's your responsibility! This is literally the whole reason the pharmacy exists! ^^^Also, don't be afraid to ask for a MANAGER . Naturally some employees are nice and some are clueless it just depends! Managers are so tired of being complained to they're just gonna try to resolve your issue if you have a plan! Anyways, I'm about to drive 30 minutes to Van Nuys to get my prescription that they CLAIMED was out of stock indefinitely (for the second time). Still took some effort! At least you're not waiting 2 weeks+ with no answers or calls. Just a 10 minute phone call and a 30 minute drive so success Godspeed!
