I was told to come in today at 8:45a (Saturday) and was happy to. Last time May did my nails and I was absolutely satisfied. This time Jenny did my nails and she was rushed from the time she sat down at my station all the way to the end of doing my nails. She didn't wait for the lights to go off when my nails were under the LED nail lamp for each step in the process. The sides of my nails look rugged (pics) and she didn't say anything when she was done and got up to rush to the next customer. I like this shop and want to come back. But I need my nails done right. RESPONSE TO JENNY: With all due respect, I did make it known. You left the table. I schedule my nail appointments for a certain time, so I won't be able to come back until my next fill. I'll be sure to ask for May.
As a loyal customer since 2019; I cannot praise all these hard working technicians enough. The wonderful owner Jenny always accommodates my requests leaving my nails exceptionally beautiful, of course I cannot forget the lovely Julie for taking care of my pedicures since the shop opened. I've referred countless of family and friends, they have all been satisfied and understand why I keep coming back. I admire the staff's professionalism and making me feel welcomed soon as I step in the door. That being said, long as the salon is in business I cannot image visiting anywhere else. Forever grateful for Nail Studio.
Wish I can give them more than 5 stars .Once again these ladies delivered,Mindy did an amazing job with my nails and May gives the best pedicure and that massage is amazing , See you guys next year
Friendly- not the cleanest- My daughter's nails came out beautiful . Mine on the other hand, are lumpy bumpy and just not it. The lady's hand was shaking. Hope she's ok. I won't be back to her. I'll go to the other lady who did my daughter's. Hers came out amazing. Mine have literal bubbles and bumps. Thank you for your response. I don't have much time off so I'll see you for my next one.
Hi Jenny, How is that a valid response from everything I mentioned? To be clear, there was no polish change. It's evident that you don't care about the horrible experience that I had at your salon. There is no apology nor accountability in your response. I was left with multiple cuts and I did not see the nail tech take any sanitary precautions. Your response or lack there of is concerning.
Horrible service, it's such a shame too because I've always had great experiences here. I made an appointment 2 weeks in advance all for them to rush our appointment and do such a bad job. The older man that did my nails didn't even want to do enough coats to make the color show, my nails came out all bumpy and misshapen. My sister wasn't happy at all with her nails either for the same reasons! I'm never going back because I'm so disappointed, even after telling them how I was getting my nails done for my Hawaii trip. All they cared about were the girls getting acrylics done.
It looks clean, that why I gave it one star and I did go back to fix my fingernails so another star because they fixed her mistakes. The lady was super tough with my hands, terrible job overall, wanted to charge me extra for the basics stuff the were included. Thankfully I read their price page and I told her it's Included. They used a chemical that made my hands/nails burn to remove gel. No massage not even a rub of hands or feet. She but my nails terrible they are super sharp. I had to come to Sally's to pick up manicure kit to fix her job. And because I don't like to be a Karen I paid $50 no tip.
The manager's reply to my review above further demonstrates the poor experience. You dropped what you were doing and never ever asked what was the conversation that led to him saying that, although I directly told you what he said. Your response was "well what do you want me to do." No suggestion, no forward thought, it was impatient "get to the point" energy. Further, the owner (having not spoke to the nail tech whatsoever) made excuses for why he did what he did, saying he did it to make my other nails even when none of those nails were close to that length. You defended his poor behavior with further poor behavior. My review stands that there are better shops to go to in this area, specifically where no one basically tells you to get out when they made a horrendous avoidable mistake. No accountability from leadership as you continue to make excuses for a poor experience in your place of business. I had to put fake nails on, which I never ever wear. And as you "fixed" his mistake, you passive aggressively tried to educate me about my nails as if I'm not a 38 year old woman who has been getting my nails done since I was a teenager. You eavesdropped on a conversation I was having with my cousin about Gel Builder and used that convo to seemingly blame me and deflect your employee filing away all of my natural nails rather than just accept total responsibility. You're loud and wrong, with employee that lacks the emotional and professional maturity to handle criticism of his work. I didn't cause any problems in your shop, I told you what the issues were and you agreed to fix them, blaming the person who wasn't holding a nail file shows that the owner lacks the same professional maturity. And then they charged me full price for the work. Watch your cameras before you blindly spew out responses to protect your Yelp image.
Great experience! I got the last parking spot in an apparently busy lot, then got swept into an oasis when I entered the doors. It's a smaller salon, decorated perfectly to enhance the "spa-me" experience. I sat in chairs, mid-salon, until someone became free to do my pedi. Apparently South Carson is in need of a nail salon, as walk-ins wait exorbitant times after those who've made appointments. Once seated in a ped-chair, my experience began. She took good care of my feet. Soak, nails, cuticle, callous removal...Painting could have been smoother. I'd return again--if for nothing but the convenience! Next time though, by appointment!
Definitely coming back! I'm new to the area and I think this is my new nail spot!! I was surprised they let me walk-in because all the reviews suggest making an appointment. I called ahead and they took me right away! I didn't have an appointment but they work fast and efficiently to make sure appointments are seen on time. They repeatedly apologized to a girl who waited at most 10mins, which is not even a long time honestly. Hy did my gel pedicure and she did an amazing job! And she was done so quick! Moon did my manicure and she was great too. I paid $74 for a gel manicure, gel pedicure plus tip and I was in and out in an hour so totally worth it! The shop is very clean. Each station is divided by a plastic barrier and they have everyone wash their hands upon entering. At the end, I even got a little gift from the shop which was super nice. I think I found my new nail spot!
I have read people's reviews who gave 1 star for this nail shop and I couldn't agree with them more. This place is only 0.5 mi away from my house and was recommended to me by my sister. My usual nail tech from another nail shop was on vacation and I needed to have my pedicure done ASAP coz of an ingrown toenail that bothered me a lot, but I also decided to have my manicure done since it was also due. I came as a walk-in customer and the lady who was seating right by the entrance was the one who worked on my manicure. I didn't get to know her name because she already projected a negative vibe on me. She started working on my nails and just basically removed the previous gel nail polish and RUSHED the "cleaning" of my nail. She barely cleaned my nail beds and didn't thoroughly trimmed my cuticles. She didn't take her time at all and after that, she told me wash my hands and then go to one of the pedicure chairs. She didn't complete my manicure and told me that "it'll be done later". I went to the pedicure chair and Moon worked on my pedicure. As she prepped my feet, someone else (she was sitting next to the one who started working on my manicure) came to me and said she'll finish my manicure. I thought that was odd... She was STANDING when she worked on my nails and did another RUSHED job. The polish was unevenly coated on most of my nails. Meanwhile, the tech who was working on my toenails is a better staff - she's friendly and took a little more time on my toenails especially on removing the ingrown toenail that bothered and hurt me for a couple of weeks. She was doing a good job until she NICKED the skin of my left great toe and a little bit from the right great toe! I didn't think of it much since it initially hurt just a bit... But 2 days later, my left great toe is still in pain and the area that was nicked has gotten infected. The area of the cut is red and painful to touch! I'm still trying to mend the wound as I write this review! I do not recommend this place at all. Yes, their regular customers are much more FAVORED than the new ones! I noticed that too! Take a look at the photos I attached with my review and you'll see the rushed job they did on my manicure! I paid nearly $100 (services and tips) on their crappy work! I'll never be coming back to this place!!!

I found this place on yelp and I am very pleased with my nails. I called an asked if they accept walk-ins and Andrew told me yes. I walked in and noticed the salon is very clean and modern. I only had to wait a few minutes due to them helping other customers. The customer service is very friendly and I felt very welcomed as they offered me water while I wait. I got a gel manicure and a sugar scrub pedicure. The price came out to $49 not including tip and I think that is very reasonable. I would recommend this nail salon to my friends and would definitely come back. read more

Got a full acrylic set by Andrew. He did a great job. The coffin shape was just perfect. I had them done exactly 2 weeks ago and they still look great. The cost of the full set with gel polish was $35. I was even given a complimentary glass of wine. What's better then that?! read more

Not a bad manicure. The woman who did my gel nails became obviously upset when I pointed out that the edges were rough and needed to be filed down more. Other than that, the mani/pedi was good and the price is even better. I paid $49 for a gel manicure and quickie pedi with callous remover. read more

I came in with high expectations due to Yelp reviews and friends reviews. Unfortunately I left disappointed. Mindy really rushed through my nails and you can tell.. she layered over the white tips on my nails but didn't do it over the same spot, so I'm left with very obvious bumps on some nails. The white polish wasn't dry when she put the top coat on either so some of that was smeared. Sadly I'm going to have to go to a different salon to fix my nails that I paid way too much for. The pictures speak for themselves, the lines are sooo uneven :( as for customer service, they seemed a little stand offish and rude. But I noticed with their regulars, they were much more welcoming. I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

So let me start by saying I love how close and clean the place is. The person who did my pedi was great! The experience was awesome! Love the scrub, and customer service. However, the tech that did my gel polish was not the best. I'm so sad because it was such a cute color but my polish job is uneven, looks sloppy and grown out. Update: all my gel nails on my hands started lifting off whole... I don't think my gel was sealed properly. Very upset at the quality of the manicure considering I just got it done yesterday... bad enough I was upset about the polish job but now this..... Will not be going back. read more

I just had my nail appointment at this establishment and I could not be more satisfied. When I rolling into the nail salon on my knee scooter, the staff were greeting me with a warm smile and asking if I wanted water. My appointment was with Mindy. She seated me next to her while my dip powder soaked off. Afterwords she was so attentive to my nails, working very efficiently. I have never had someone complete my dip powder nails so quickly yet beautifully. I have also never been to a nail salon that exceeds my expectations on cleanliness. They have individually wrapped sterile tools and one time use files and nail buffs. I will definitely be returning to this establish for future nail needs. I have even recommended them to several people already. read more

First time being back at the nail salon since Covid and I felt completely comfortable. Andrew greeted me with a forehead scan and I washed my hands as I entered. Mindy helped me out and slayed my gel full set. The shop is very ambient and gives of a relaxing,welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend this location. read more

My 2nd time here. I didn't have an appt for a Sat morning but I was accommodated right away even though I was told when I got in that it would be a 30min wait for only a French manicure. I didn't get the lady's name who did my French tip but she didn't do a good job and I felt like she rushed it because she had another lady waiting that I'm assuming had an appt. Anyway, she asked me initially if the thickness of the French tip was ok on my thumb, and it was. She never asked me after the first coat if the other fingers looked ok. She did the whole gel mani without confirming that I was ok with the other nails. Although she kept looking at all my nails at the end of each coat, and I trusted that she would fix whatever errors she saw but not sure if she was rushing or didn't care. At the very end, I took a look and pointed out that my pinky needed to be fixed and she said she would have to remove the whole polish and start over on the nail, which I was fine with because I wanted it even. But since I didn't get a good vibe from her and I feel like her next client was waiting, I didn't want to take up more time. I feel like it could have been avoided if she confirmed with me after the first coat that I was okay with everything. Then I noticed all these other little flaws. I still tipped her regardless of her service but don't think she deserved one. Not sure if I plan to go back here in the future. My first visit I was cut on my big toe from the girl being too aggressive on the edge of my cuticle. I give them the extra star for no wait and accommodating me quickly. read more

How much are pedicures?
If you're gonna be a first timer, I suggest not to go there. It won't be worth your monies. Go elsewhere. The pedicure (and manicure) costs' depend on how you want to have your nails done. I paid $40 for mine - "quickie" pedi ($25) plus gel polish…
Can I make appointments?
yes, you can call them to make an appointment. That is highly recommended if you do not want to wait.
How long is the wait?
It really depends on how many people walk-ins we have at the time. It can range anywhere from 10mins to 1 hour. It would be better if you gave us a call before you come in to get a better quote. 424-342-9299
How much is it for a pedicure?
Our pedicure start at $16 for a quickie $21 for a signature $40 for a deluxe
How much is for dip powder?
Hi Mary, our dip powder is 35$ and if you want to add on tips to extend your nails, it will be a 5$ add on.
How much does a Acrylic Full Set cost? And is the regular or gel polish?
Hi Kristy. Our Acrylic full set start out at $20 with regular polish. Gel polish will be $10 more on top what you are getting.
