    Eyebrows waxing
    Stephanie L.

    Went in for waxing and they messed up my eyebrows. I feel like she pulled out alot of my hairs! And they're not even

    Cat eye Valentine's Day nails

    I have been coming here monthly to get my nails done and absolutely love everything about this place. The staff is extremely nice and incredible. The service is impeccable. Paula did my cat eye Valentine's Day nails on top my my natural nails. She went out of her way to create a cat eye test nail to show how it would looked. She also noticed that one of my nails had chipped and decided to add a gel x coat to keep my nails from chipping any more. I absolutely love the final design!! Love this place and I highly recommend.

    Dude foot troubles accepted!

    Open for the first half of the day on holidays. At least three staff members speak English. Your nails will be happy here in sleepy El Monte. If not, you better see a nail psychologist. That's okay, we all need support.

    Lots of color selections

    Best eyebrow shaping (waxing) in town is by Paula! Her prices are amazing and I trust no one else with my crazy eyebrows. Her and her team also do beautiful nails

    Pedicures

    The owner is so freaking sweet!!! Made the whole experience a nice chill vibe. I did have to wait a little bit for my pedi but she started with my hubby for their birthday and the conversation was super nice. If you're looking for a mom and pop shop that gives that more intimate vibe, come here! You will not be disappointed:)

    Gel x with marble design

    I walked in with an intricate vision in mind and Paula absolutely NAILED it!!! (pun intended) I am usually extremely picky with my nails but she listened to me when I was explaining what I wanted. These are my birthday nails so thank you Paula for leaving me so satisfied and excited to show off this beautiful set!

    I got nails for Valentine's Day and I love them so much I have to share it with everyone. Shoutout to Paula, she always gets down with the designs and takes her time with customers.

    Wonderful staff! Kid friendly. Looking to get your young daughters nails painted paulas perfect nails is the place to go! Gel polish with hello kitty.

    I'm honestly the pickiest person, especially when it comes down to my nails! I actually stumbled upon this place on accident. Paula stunned me! She is the absolute best "a perfectionist", she caters to your needs with a great attitude. I saw all the reviews after my first experience and was so confused. I just came out of my second session, I got a refill (shown in the pic) I love everything about my nails! The shape, color, design, everything. Everything is also priced reasonably. I also got a pedicure, they do an awesome job and really get in there unlike many places that just wet your feet and paint your nails. The actual location can use cleaning up but hey you win some you loose some. Overall great place, great people, great work.

    I paid 22 dollars for this?! I clearly asked for a manicure with cuticle cut, NEVER AGAIN will I be back. She didn't even bother to clean my under nails. Just horrible. So glad I'm never coming UPDATE : you guys are going to be sued if my husband gets paronychia. You people didn't realize how short you cut his nail. DEEPLY UPSET!

    1 week later. Doesn't even look like they trimmed the cuticles or pushed it back. Hang nails everywhere.

    I'd skip this and go else where for better quality work and an cleaner place. Friends wanted to go here because the price was reasonable but the work space was cringe worthy and dirty. At one point I saw a woman who had been filing down acrylics used the filter to scrape off the powder dust from the table and into the trash bin. She kept the file to be reused. Same with the buffers and everything else. Had a manicure gel and there was clear top coat all over my fingers on the skin. Super sloppy work. Then I did a regular pedicure... aside from not having the first two colors I wanted.... For my toes this girl went at it and started cutting the side of my nails and pulling it up.... obviously painful and she was rough. My toe is still sensitive and hurting from the treatment. The paint was all sloppy and also on my skin that I had to check if it was my nail cut unevenly or not. The cost was $34 for both mani and pedi. I would have rather paid extra for better service, even nail polish, and clean tools and now I am praying I don't get a foot infection where it's currently hurting. Ugh.

    As you can see in the picture nails already lifting and looks ugly at the cuticle
    S G.

    I went here and the guy did my nails and they weren't properly filed and the polished was bubbly and now 3 days later my nails are already lifting. They woman that did my toes refused to put toe separators so when I left my baby toe and toe next to it was all messed up. She attempted to fix it I was just ready to get the heck out of there

My massage therapist, Nancy, did an amazing job finding every tight spot and working them all out. She was thorough, attentive, and made sure the pressure was just right throughout the session. If you're looking for a place to relieve stress and muscle tension, I highly recommend Ace Massage. I'll definitely be coming back and requesting Nancy again!

    Reply to the shop owner's response. I want to clarify that…read moremy review was not mainly about the tip or the cost. I actually mentioned that I had a good massage. My concern was about privacy and safety. While I was almost undressed, there was only a curtain divider, and men walked in without appointments. This made me feel very uncomfortable. I hope the shop can consider improving privacy measures so all customers, especially women, can feel more comfortable. Thank you. This massage place had great reviews on Google and Yelp, which caught my attention and made me want to try it. I would highly recommend this place for men. I would not recommend it for women who care about privacy and safety. While I was there, I was almost naked with only a curtain divider, and some men walked in without appointments. It made me feel very uncomfortable. I paid $90 for the massage plus a $30 tip, bringing the total to $120. The shop owner recommended a $30 tip for the service. (30 minutes for $10 tip) I will pay extra and go to a real spa next time, where they usually only ask for a 15-20% tip. Other than that, I had a good massage. The massage table had fresh, clean covers, and the bathroom was clean.

I have been coming to Master Tian for over 25 years. This man is a healer and truly amazing. I was introduced to him when I worked across the street at Howard's.

    Was planning to remove the review until I read the response from the owner and trying to say I was…read moremaking false accusations. I wanted to provide an update on what happened after I called the police. While the police were interviewing the workers at the business, they requested access to the security camera footage. During this time, the masseuse was acting very strange and repeatedly kept touching her pocket, which immediately raised concerns. The police gave her one final opportunity to conduct another search. The officer also asked me if I wanted to search the premises myself, and I told him that I wanted the entire place searched, including the masseuse, her pockets, and everywhere else thoroughly. Shortly after, the owner arrived and began speaking with the police. Then, unbelievably, the masseuse walked back into the same room (room 008) we had previously been in, came back out, and suddenly claimed she had found the missing item. She told the police it was supposedly under the pillow. What makes this highly suspicious is that she had already searched under the pillow and through the NEW sheets while I was present and stated that nothing was there. Now we're expected to believe that it was somehow hidden in the crack of the massage table (according to the owner stated on my friend's review) the entire time. That explanation sounds very sketchy and raises serious concerns about the credibility of what actually happened. STILL never coming back. The masseuse got caught.
