This breezy shopping center on Atlantic used to be one giant store called Superco -- I got a…read morerotating fan here one afternoon after dim sum at Ocean Star in the next block. Sadly, Superco and Ocean Star are both gone, but rising from the ashes is a bunch of fun stuff, like Smoking Tiger and this jumbo-sized nail salon next door, Magical Nails. Nothing too magical about it, but this busy salon has about 10,000 polish shades to choose from, and a printed menu with prices so you know what you're getting and how much it will be. All the salon chairs have the back massage function which kills two birds with one stone. Easy parking right in front, walk-ins welcome, and no waiting for your mani-pedi. I stuck my nose in to have a look, and was getting beautified just a few moments later. Minus one star for some unnecessary upselling, and a sour face from the greeter when I declined. But a free bottle of water cheered me up. Would I go back? Yes.

Her attention to detail, patience, and creativity were incredible.

Not only is Nina super talented, she will give you her best opinions (and tell you when the color/style isnt going to look that great). I've already gotten so many compliments on my nails! If you're looking for someone who can bring your nail ideas to life, especially detailed custom designs, I highly recommend Nina. Thank you again for making my BTS nails look so beautiful!

I'm definitely going to be going back. 10/10 would recommend.

I've had a few different people do my pedicures and they've all been great. Depending on the service I do pay between $40 and $60 for gel as I always add callus removal. The vibe is nothing special in here, shop is small, but they do have good air conditioning and the massage seats are always great. If you keep seeking a new nail salon go ahead and try this one.

DONT GO HERE!!!!!! KRISTY WAS UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE AS HELL!!!!…read more RESPONSE TO YOUR REPLY! UPDATED REVIEW / RESPONSE TO OWNER I stand by my experience 100%. I came in with a reference photo from your own page and clearly explained what I wanted. When the tips were first applied, they were wide and not the shape I asked for. Before acrylic was even applied, I politely spoke up so I wouldn't end up paying for something I didn't like. That is normal as a paying client. Instead of being understanding, Kristy immediately responded with attitude and said, "you're going to make me take them off?" Whether you choose to deny that or not, that was said, and it set the tone for the entire appointment. I even apologized in the moment because of how uncomfortable the interaction became. After she removed and reapplied the tips, she asked me about length. I did NOT ask her to choose for me--I simply asked what length was used in the reference photo so I could choose something similar. That's when her attitude got worse. She became dismissive and irritated, saying it was my responsibility to know my length. Asking for clarification is not being difficult. Your response focuses heavily on technicalities (length, time, process), but completely ignores the actual issue: the way I was spoken to. This was about attitude and professionalism. I was not rude, I was not difficult, and I was not asking for anything unreasonable. I was simply trying to communicate what I wanted before moving forward with a full set I was paying for. The situation became uncomfortable enough that I stopped the service. I was then left with tips still on my nails and had to ask for them to be cut down. Even then, I was left with plastic tips still on the edges of my nails. Also, mentioning that "camera footage was reviewed" does not change my experience. If anything, if that footage truly supports your claim, then feel free to share it. I am not backing down from what I experienced. I know how I was spoken to, and I am 100% certain that the attitude I received was not appropriate. What I described is exactly what happened, and dismissing it as untrue is simply downplaying a client's experience. At the end of the day, clients should be able to ask questions or request adjustments without being met with irritation or made to feel like a problem. It just bothers you that unfortunately you're getting called out and I'm basically doing this to prevent someone else having a bad experience. I'm not going to stay quiet.

His response to me was soooo RUDE and not how you talk to a customer especially someone that has been loyal to you. I will insert the convo below. To say that I'm "wasting your time " just because I asked about a future appointment slot is crazy ! You so call value your business but that is NOT how you talk to a customer!

Each time I've been here I've booked an appointment online beforehand yet still end up waiting 15/20 minutes to be serviced. They do not prioritize appointments over walk ins which is frustrating when you're in a time crunch. The quality is never that great - I always catch bubbles and lint in my gel manicures afterwards even when I tell them during the service when I notice them. Today, the lady doing my manicure filed my nails uneven and I had to stop her half way through and request a different person to fix her mistakes. This place is clean which gets them 2 stars but can't say much more than that.

I did show up a few…read moreminutes early to my appointment since it was my first time and I also wasn't sure how parking was. My appointment time came and the salon was still closed (I just want to note that my appointment time was 30 minutes after their opening time) and I was waiting outside, unsure if I should just leave or wait. I ended up messaging Trulycure for an update and didn't get an answer. A lady showed up about 5-10 minutes later to open the door, asked if I needed a pedicure and then to sit down on one of the chairs. Now the chairs were really nice, but did not have a built in spa. She had to bring over a tub of water. I wasn't asked which pedicure service I want (I later saw there were multiple options on their menu) and asked me what color I wanted. Andrew had walked in while I was getting my pedicure done. He worked on removing my old set of gelx that I got done elsewhere and put a new set (he did an excellent job at this). I opted for a cat eye effect on my nails since he mentioned there is a promotion at the time. I thought Trulycure is somewhere I want to go back to but after reflecting on my experience of waiting without any communication they were going to be tardy, pedicure gal cutting my toe nails oddly to the point where my big toe nail is growing out not the way I like and the cat eye not being a cat eye (looks like a layer of glitter polish applied), I was completely ready to go back to my usual place.

I always book with Nana and make sure to call ahead so I can get an appointment with her, she always does an amazing job. She recently did my nails for Coachella, and I absolutely loved how they turned out. I got so many compliments! I usually bring in inspiration photos, and she'll add in her own creative touch, which makes the final results even better. The quality of their work is consistently great my nails last, the shaping is precise, and everything is done with attention to detail. Their service is also efficient without feeling rushed, and I like that I can get a pedicure at the same time. On top of that, their pricing is very reasonable for the level of quality you get. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I rarely have to wait long, which I really appreciate. Highly recommend if you're looking for a place that delivers both quality and great service!
