This place was such a good experience! I loved Kim who really took her time and made sure my nails were perfect, which I appreciated a lot. It's been a while since I've got my nails done and had a nail technician like her who was very detail oriented. She was always very sweet and made sure I was comfortable the whole time! 5/5 for sure would come back! Her work truly speak for itself! read more

I came here to get a gel pedicure and manicure. I waited nearly two hours to get my manicure done. I'm not one to complain, but i did let the manicurist (who I'm guessing is the manager) that I was the first one to get there and the last one to leave. As I sat for two hours, I noticed that the manager was demanding tips for those paying with card. One girl came in and didn't tip and she asked "you're not going to tip?" Putting her on the spot. The girl only gave $3 but then the manager told her it wasn't enough for the serves they provided. I was embarrassed for the girl! I just hoped that her bluntness would be something I could put aside for a good mani/pedi but then a week later my nail polish started to chip (gel that is). Needless to say, I will never come back here again. I like to give business at least two chances before loosing my business. I returned today for another pedicure/mani and the atmosphere was still the same as I waited. read more

Soo...I saw photos of eye lash extensions for the women and I asked if they also did eye brow waxing... Kathy, told me they did. I showed up around 1pm and Kathy was able to see me right away in the wax room. She also noticed I was sweating and offered to turn on the A.C. The whole process took about 20 min, and to me that was super fast, especially since I haven't had my eyebrows cleaned up in years. She was extremely friendly and professional. Kathy used a wax that smelled like nutella or peanut butter, so it was kind of pleasant. Lol. She was conscious of my sensitive skin and even made sure I was comfortable the entire time. She even mentioned microblading.. whatever that is?! Haha. I will definitely come back. And, if you're in the El Monte area, come check this place out. read more

I come here regularly every 2-3 weeks to get a mani and pedi. Kim always does a fantastic job on my manicure. I usually get acrylic and gel both and she really takes her time to make sure your nails are even, clean and absolutely perfect! She doesn't rush through anything and double checks back and forth with me to make sure I am satisfied with the length and look of my nails. I will usually get the combination of the hot stone massage, pedicure, foot scrub, and callous remover. Kathy takes care of me and makes sure I am very comfortable. If they offer you the deluxe package with the hot stone foot massage and scrub, do it and thank me later! They also have a special space for sanitizing their tools and between 3 workers I see them cleaning their tools after every client. The last two times I've come in they've also bought new gel colors I can't wait to try for summer!! So many neutrals for the everyday look as well :) I will be back soon! TIP: This establishment is somewhat on the smaller side. But don't be fooled, they work very hard to accommodate their clients but be sure to call ahead to make an appointment so they can prepare for your exact needs. There have been times when I need a fill last minute on a weekend but they will squeeze me in because I've called in before showing up! read more

Never had a pedi in my entire life but I decided to get one because my bottoms were getting a little rough. This place is kinda old and not as decorative but it's decent for a $16 pedi. The lady who did my toes did not spoke much English but she did an okay job on my toes. Being a licensed manicurist I am very particular on the result. I'm giving this place 3 stars because, I over heard the ladies saying they should've charged this couple extra for their pedicures. Also 3 starts because when I had called for the pricing the lady on the phone had told me that it was $15 for a pedi yet their listing price on the wall was $14. Kinda sketchy on pricing but.... Overall, I spent $20 on a reg mani and I'm 50/50 about returning again. read more

I came in on a wednesday evening around 5:45/50 for a fill. I didn't make an appointment i just walked in. as i sat down i was moved around a few times because two different people were doing different things, taking off the gel, doing the fill, and the gel. they close at 7 and people were coming in and i felt so rushed. i do understand vietnamese so i did understand what they were saying and it did sound like they were trying to finish up with everyone as soon as possible. i did not tip that much and one of the workers was about to tell the other person who also helped me how much i tipped but stopped herself midway. it was in a tone as if i ONLY tipped that much. but yes i felt very rushed cause i heard them saying how they just need to finish these people and they can go home. no big deal i understand they do close at 7. so 3 days after my acrylic fill, one of my nails broke. 3 days. i did this review a little late because i have been busy. this is actually the first time ever i have experienced my acrylics break. i was putting on shoes at the time. but all the other times i have done more harsh things with my nails, having them break from putting on shoes is a first. i don't think i would go back because of the service BUT they do a really good job though considering that it as rushed. read more

First time here. I went with my mom to get a pedicure. While i was waiting for her I decided to get my eyebrows and lip waxed. Its been 10+ yrs since i got waxed because i been threading for awhile now so i was a little nervous about it. Kim waxed my eyebrows and i loved the way they came out. I still got a clean look as i would from threading but with less pain than threading. I will definitely be back. It was a nice clean and friendly environment. read more

Nails Touch - This place is a gem!!!! - Nail Salons Near Me - El Monte, California

First timer here...Kat was super friendly and did a great job with the mani and pedi!! Will be back!!

We called at 11:40am to make an appointment for 4 people at 12:15pm. They said sure, come on over. I confirmed that they had 4 nail technicians working. Within a few minutes, they called me back and ask me if it's ok to come at 1:15pm instead. So we changed our schedule, went somewhere else to kill time and returned at 1:15pm only to find that they have exactly 4 women working and all of them were busy. One of the 4 looked up, pointed to each of the other women working and said "we're almost done. She's almost done, she's almost done, and I'm almost done." Except they weren't almost done. By 1:40pm, two of the stations had opened up and I let two of my friends get started on their pedicure. At 1:55pm, a third technician finished with her client and my third friend finally got started on her nails. At 2pm another customer comes into the waiting area. At 2:10pm, the woman that addressed us when I walked in told the customer who came in at 2pm to get seated for a pedicure. I inquired why they were skipping me since I had been waiting for almost an hour now. She claimed that the woman who just came in was her 2pm appointment. I questioned back - what about our 1:15pm appointment. Then the other technicians chimed in and claimed that they had an emergency and one of their colleagues had to leave early. However, it turned out that they knew about this at 11:45am, which is why they pushed back our appointment to 1:15pm from the original time. This doesn't explain why they failed to mention to me when I walked in at 1:15pm that they were short on people and couldn't actually work on all 4 of us at once. The most vocal technician snapped back when I questioned her logic, "I'm sorry. We already apologized. What do you want?" I told her I wanted to not be treated like I was invisible, having sat in the waiting area for nearly an hour only to see a client who had just walked in with a later appointment time be served ahead of me. She said that she thought she would've been done with her prior client earlier, and could have started on me before her 2pm came in. And you know what, she could have finished earlier if she didn't step away constantly from her prior client to take walk-in waxing jobs. The other 3 technicians felt bad and tried to tell me they would start on my nails right away. The problem, though, is that this came at the expense of my friends since there were really only 3 technicians available to work on 4 of us, who all wanted both manicures and pedicures. I told them that it was unacceptable to have my manicure and pedicure lag so long that it would cause my friends to also wait forever after their services were done since we couldn't leave until all of us are done. So they decided to shuffle the 3 technicians working on us back and forth. Honestly, the job that was done was not bad but it was also lacking in attention to detail. The salon I went to a few weeks ago was so much better and even the manicurist here gave an unprompted compliment for the work of the person who did my nails before. It was rather unpleasant for a while since tensions were high. The price was fine and eventually we got out but I would NOT recommend this place if you value your time. Also, most of the nail polishes used as super cheap brands that you won't recognize. There are only a few bottles of nail brand nail polishes. read more

This is my second visit here and this time I decided to get a mani, a pedi and some waxing done and this place did not disappoint once again!! This time I had Kathy. She's such a sweet girl. She did a really good job on my gel mani and fortunately I also got her for my pedi!! Love love her work!! Not only was she quick but also really careful with her work. My gel mani and pedi was perfect . I had my brows, upper lips and underarms waxed by her also. Loved the shape she gave me for my brows and I had no redness or skin irritation afterwards at all. She's my new go-to nail and wax girl!! I would definitely recommend Kathy for all your services. read more

If I could write a review without adding any stars I would. I approched this business needing my eyebrows wax for my daughter and I and Kim Ky was so rude. She has poor customer service. Her assistant who performed the waxing was so sweet and gentle. We washed our hands and Kim told us she only accepts cash and Zelle. It was fine but she wouldn't start anything until she recieved the money. The whole time we were trying to set up the zelle account, she was speaking in a foreign language to her assistant making us feel uncomfortable. We told her we wanted to test the Zelle account with $1 first to make sure it was her right number and she mocked us with her voice, her response, amd her facial expression. I will never spend my money again with such a rude human being. Especially this business. I'll make sure to let all my friends and family know not to go there. read more

Been coming here for years and now sense it under new ownership im even more pleased everytime I come in. Kim the owner is great, she always makes sure her customers are happy when they leave.

Decided to come here because my old nail salon was under new management and I wasn't impressed with the quality of nail work they did anymore. I was greeted by very lovely ladies and was helped by Kathy and Emily who both did my Mani/pedi. Kathy was extra careful with my new grown out nail since I jammed it in the beginning of the year. I am really happy with the final result and I'm ready to go back here to do a facial :) read more

I forgot her name but the owner was the one who did my manicure. She was very thorough and meticulous and tried her best to save my dying nail bed. I'm very pleased with the result and in my opinion the price point is very very economic. I would've given them 5/5 but the wait time was really long. There's only around 3 workers in store. Call ahead to make sure you don't have to wait. Definitely would go again if I have the time. read more

I don't know why my experience had to be what it was. This was my first time here and I was so excited after reading the reviews. I came early at 9:30 on a Saturday when they first opened. I didn't know if the workers needed more time to set up so I asked them. The owner Karen said "No come in". I came in picked my color --because that's always the first thing they want you to do. Sigh. And older lady who was Karen's mom did my pedicure. Another older lady did my nails. I had a few specifics regarding my pedicure because I wanted to make sure my skin wasn't cut and that I bled (it's happened before). They were attentive and honored my requests. When Karen's mom was done with my toenails ... Karen actually did them again. Shrug. I don't know why but she said she wanted to make sure they weren't too sharp on the nail (I appreciate that!). But then the lady who did my nails messed up my thumb nail. She filed it too much at an angle and the shape was messed up. I asked her to fix it and Karen said another lady May was going to fix it. Fine! Maybe this is their way of ensuring that nails are done right. Again thanks, I guess. When it was time to pay ... I never felt more like a presumed thief as I did this time. They were so fearful that they wouldn't get paid. I mean c'mon!!! What about me made you think that?!?! Couldn't have been my black skin that was "so pretty" according to one of the workers could it have been??? Earlier in my service I was told, "your skin is so pretty. Are you mixed?" (Smh because all lighter complexion black people are mixed and were only pretty when our complexion is lighter??? I just do not understand). Anyway I digress. I was told that there was a $1 charge for using my credit card. I declined credit card payment and said I'd walk to my bank Chase to get cash. Chase bank is LITERALLY in the same parking lot as the nail salon. May held my card and said something similar to "I don't know. We need to hold something of yours. Maybe your phone." Sigh. What in the world!!! "You can see me though. The bank is RIGHT there. I'm just walking to the ATM. I mean if you don't trust me, there's my car *me pointing to my car* take my license plate number if you want. But the bank is right there!!!" I go to the bank. Get their cash PLUS tip. As I'm walking back, the older woman who did my nails initially was standing by my car watching it and waiting to see if i was going to leave without paying them I'm assuming. I go into the nail salon and Tell them, "I know this is my first time here. But I'm not a person to steal or take service without payment" It's so sad that this even happened to me. And I have strong belief it's because I'm a BLACK woman in an area where there aren't many of us here. It's so infuriating. Overall my nails are decent. But the assumption that I'm a thief and especially when comments were made about my race initially just makes me too apprehensive about receiving service from a place that sees my race first, makes assumptions and then grants service on such ludicrous and unfortunate prejudice views. read more

If I can give 0 stars I would I really liked this place until now came in to get a Gel pedicure done the lady did a good job until the paint it was sloppy with paint all over my toes I told her what I didn't like that it looked unclean and chunky she stated she would fix it but didn't she kept plucking away the paint instead of wiping it away I don't recommend this place customer service was very POOR she then continued to say there's nothing wrong and Kept looking at my feet like she doesn't see the problem she then called her coworker over I'm done fuck this place!!!

I just moved to the area, wanted a new nail salon to go too and this isn't it! I walked in early, wasn't welcomed and when I was I asked for a wait time they said 5 minutes. 5 minutes quickly became 30 & finally someone was free. Once I explained what I wanted the left became hesitant, like she couldn't fulfill what I asked, which she couldn't. I paid a little over $80 for a SHORT gel set and a reg pedi. I didn't really want to leave a big tip because my request for long nails wasn't considered, she gave me what she saw fit & the designs on my nails looked terrible, so I said $2 tip per person and the lady charged my card $5 extra per person. I won't ever be going back. read more

I came here on a Saturday around noontime and was able to get help with a gel manicure and regular pedicure. I was seated at the spa chair and two ladies got started on me right away, Cam and another, older lady. As Cam helped with my manicure she made small talk that helped pass the time. She cut the skin around my nails and buffed my nails in a very half assed manner. I still have a lot of skin pieces hanging off my nails. She didn't cut or file my nails down properly. She did do a hand massage for about 1minute before she informed me that another lady would be applying my gel polish. The person who applied my gel polish was not detail oriented and left my nails looking bumpy and uneven. Also, my nails have ridges in them from how uneven the polish is. She did not cover my entire nail and she got polish on my skin, didn't bother to clean it up. The other lady did a better job on my toes. She took the time to actually clean my nails and apply the polish correctly. At the end she hit my big toe nail with her arm and it smeared the polish. She tried to fix it by applying more polish. I asked her apply a completely new coat however she refused and only applied an additional coat. It made my nail look lumpy and uneven. I've gotten gel nails before and it is a meticulous process so I didn't expect to be out of there quickly however, I spent almost 2 hours there for them to give me a subpar manicure and pedicure. The prices were a joke compared to the salon I usually go to. I should not have strayed from the place I go to regularly. I took a chance in coming here, as a friend recommended this place but, I will not be coming back again. Add: It's been about a week since I had my nails done and the gel polish is already chipping and coming off. read more

Took my gf here for the first time and she loved it.They were so busy for a weekday, this place is nice, clean, good customer service, they charge $1 for using credit card but I didnt mind cuz that dollar WONT MAKE ME RICH lol....kathy the owner is very nice and kind AND she speaks english which helps alot with what we want in service. The reason why they asked us at the end do we want to add tip is because their credit card machine doesnt have a space for us to leave tips once transaction is made and its toatally understandable cuz not lots of ppl carry cash on them. Well, I will definetly recommend this place to all my friends and families, once again thank you kathy and your team read more

I went to get my nails done here on a Thursday, and the ladies were super kind and made sure I was comfortable! I absolutely love that the woman doing my manicure suggested I got gel instead of acrylic on my nails, I will definitely be getting gel on my natural length more often. I'm absolutely in love with the shape and polish application! Most other places I have been had hurt me with a file, but the ladies here were very gentle and attentive! I saw on their sign that they do lash perms (you have to make an appointment and put a 50% down payment) so a made an appointment for the following Tuesday I got my lash perm done by a super kind woman named Kathy! She was very sweet and made sure I was comfortable during the process. The lash perming was very simple, but took a long time to complete. I ended up taking a nap for the hour I was there! My eyelashes are very uncooperative and curl in every direction except for up... But Kathy was able to get them all perfectly curled! My lashes have never looked this great! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a decently priced nail salon or a really great lash lift for a great price! read more
