Karen always does an amazing job. She's very thorough and detail-oriented. Anytime I've done gel at other salons, the polish starts chipping within a week. Karen's work can last 5+ weeks. Make sure to book your appointment in advance.

If you're looking for the best service look no further than Polished. The booking process was fast and easy and finding the place was fast and easy. Karen did an excellent job with my pedicure that left my feet soft and clean. She even used a scrub to exfoliate my legs. The place itself has a perfect & chill vibe with great amenities such as coffee, soft drinks, free street parking, great music and much more. I will definitely be recommending this place to everyone I know.

Loved meeting Karen and her lovely place. She accommodated me last minute, did a wonderful job removing my old gel manicure and cleaning my nails and loved her recommendations and my new nails!The place is lovely, quaint, cosy and a perfect location to go with your girlfriend to have your nails done. Thank you so much!!

I've been coming here for over a year now. I was looking for a local spot that does Russian manicures. There are 2 girls here. I always see Karen, who is the sweetest and very attentive. I can tell her exactly what I want (like if I want to go shorter or file more in a certain spot), and she listens and does just that. She's also able to help me decide when I don't know what color or style I'm going for. The place is also cute and there are coffee, sodas, water, and sweets available for clients.

So clean, so welcoming, so professional! Polished offers everything you need for a perfect mani/pedi. So happy to have found Karen. She takes her time and goes above and beyoI won't go anywhere else.

This place is such a vibe. You walk in to a very intimate space. It feels so personal, like the space is just for you. Karen is so sweet and takes so much pride in her work. It shows in her art and her attention to detail. Such a hidden gem.

Freshly cleaned natural nails with structured gel.

Pasadena! Your boutique nail salon experience has arrived. After months of searching for a place to give me an attentive, quality experience, I found Karen and her beautiful new nail studio. The perk- it's very close to home! I went in with tragic nails and no appointment, which I was graciously greeted with service and an offer for something to drink and a chair. Karen spent quality time explaining what may be best for me, how the product works and how long each option would take. Her studio is not a quick in and out kind of place, which I prefer considering other places I have found seem to rush me to get more clients in the door. Everything is extremely clean, she has a beautiful variety of colors and services available. I can't wait to see her business grow and look forward to being a long time client.

Still absolutely fab! Loving the progress of growing my nails out over the past two months and the chrome nails I got today

Ok soooo... I think I have officially found my forever nail salon/ nail girl!! I originally found Karen/Polished Nail Studio on Instagram and messaged her for an appointment and was happy to get a quick response with the exact date and time I was requesting. I went in for my appointment and was greeted by Karen who was ready to get me going. She had great music playing, candles lit everywhere which made the place smell amazing. The service she provided was amazing. Very detailed and took her time. You can tell she is an actual license professional. Definitely it your ordinary chop shop salon. Overall the place is a vibe. With only 2 pedi stations and 2 mani stations you literally feel like you are getting a customized and personalized experience just . I was glad to spend 2+ hours there and am looking forward to my next appointment already!

Lily G.

I've been searching for THE nail tech for my nails and Karen is it! She was very attentive from the minute I walked in until the second I left. She made me feel welcomed since I messaged her to book an appointment. I was looking for someone to executive a fall look for my birthday nails and she nailed it. She took her time prepping my nails and doing the design I had requested. She was very pleasing to be around not like those nail salons that rush you while you're getting your nails done. All the refreshments are delicious as well. This is not a place you want to sleep on! Book now and you'll see what I'm raving about. I cannot recommend Karen more to all my fellow ladies looking for their forever nail girl.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a Russian structured gel manicure with Renata. You can tell that Renata is very passionate about her craft. I left with miniature works of art on my nails that I couldn't stop looking at. I did wait a few weeks before writing this review because I wanted to see how my nails held up with all the typing and frequent hand washing I do. Well it's safe to say that I'm very impressed. My nails still look flawless, so I'm very happy. The nail studio was very clean, which was the first thing I noticed and I had no issues finding parking which is always a plus!

Exceptional Service by Karen!!! Quality is great. Super clean!! I finally found a place where I can have a conversation with my nail lady. She doesn't care if I'm only doing mani pedi on all appointments now. I would get judged in other places when I don't buy all the bells and whistles. No judgement here. Very quiet two stations place so you need reservations for sure. Don't walk in. read more

I LOVED....LOVED how Karen did my nails! I have had acrylic nails for the last 35+ years. The last few years I have been putting gel on top of my acrylics, so I do not have to wait for my nails to dry. What Karen used for nails is similar to the acrylic and gel combination: it is called "builder gel". It is as strong as acrylic, but without the sharp smell and dust. It is similar to putting the gel polish, but stronger. I was skeptical about not doing acrylic after 35 years, but I was pleasantly surprised. My nails looked cleaner and polish was very shiny. I'm very happy with the results. I drove 30 miles each way from the valley to Pasadena to get my nails done and given how many nails turned out, I have no problem going to there every few weeks. The salon is very chic, cute , clean and trendy. I would highly recommend it! read more

The owner and Renata go above and beyond to ensure that you are comfortable and have a lovely experience. This is my new go-to nail salon. Appointments are highly recommended since it's a small woman-owned shop. I loved my nails and had a wonderful time there, Highly recommend Renata (she is amazing). read more

After a couple sessions, my nails are stronger than ever and they always come out so freaking cute. She's amazing in both talent and a human.

There is nothing more refreshing than a brand new nail salon. From the second I walked in, it felt comfortable and so zen. Karen is a mail goddess and she took such good care of my gel mani and regular pedi. I also appreciated that for a new spot she had such a wide variety of options for color. She takes her time and makes sure you get exactly what you want. Also, the cleanliness is fantastic. I'm super picky and this place felt like they had it all. Definitely going back. read more

This review is difficult to write because I gave this salon multiple chances and truly wanted to support them as a Pasadena local, but what started as disappointment over birthday nails turned into concerns about sanitation, professionalism, pricing, and customer treatment. Please consider looking at the photos of my nails an hour after they were done. I initially overlooked things because there was one employee in particular who was very kind and I kept hoping my experience would improve. Unfortunately, after several visits, I began noticing issues that became impossible to ignore. I observed sanitation and maintenance concerns that made me uncomfortable, including openings in walls with exposed plumbing, tools appearing to be reused between clients without proper visible sanitization, and a communal nail brush in the bathroom that was later used during service. This raised hygiene concerns for me personally. My birthday appointment was the turning point. I specifically requested Serena. During removal, my nails chipped significantly and I felt the service was rushed. I requested nail strengthening treatment and a simple French tip, but the final result was thick and not what I had asked for. When I politely said I was unhappy with the outcome, the response immediately became uncomfortable. Cameras were repeatedly referenced even though I was simply discussing the result of my nails and not disputing what happened. I was told that whatever I chose next "better be right" because they did not want me returning unhappy later. The repeated references to surveillance felt unnecessary and unrelated to the issue I was trying to address. There were also concerns about pricing. The posted pricing showed removal and regular polish charges, however I was charged more than expected and left confused about the final total. The polish reportedly applied "free of charge" did not feel free when the overall bill had already increased. After payment there was little acknowledgment, no effort to resolve concerns, and the interaction felt abrupt. When my husband later tried to discuss the pricing and service concerns, the conversation escalated further. Cameras were referenced again, we were directed to contact the owner, a phone number provided was unreachable, and the situation became increasingly hostile rather than solution focused. At that point it stopped being about the money and became about customer treatment. I gave this place multiple chances because there were staff members I genuinely liked and wanted to support. Unfortunately, I left feeling dismissed, uncomfortable, and disappointed. I would encourage management to focus on professionalism, sanitation transparency, customer communication, and handling feedback without escalation. For those looking in Pasadena, I would personally recommend seeking a salon with clearer pricing, stronger customer service, and a cleaner environment.

Parking-wise, there are a few curb spots right in front, but if those are taken, there's plenty of parking in the plaza next to Domino's, which makes it easy. I love the ambience, the professionalism, and the overall welcoming vibe here. Truly grateful to be one of their customers. Safe to say I'll be coming here for a long time.

Polished Nail Studio is the cutest, coziest, and most chic nail salon I've ever been to! I love the variety of polish colors and styles they have. The prices are very reasonable and their work is very clean and beautiful. Karen(the owner), has been doing my nails for 2 years now, and I can not get my nails done anywhere else after her! She is the best and always executes my crazy design ideas perfectly. Their customer service is amazing and you never have to wait to be seated. I definitely recommend this salon! read more

I always love my nail visits to Polished Nail Studio with Renata. I initially came with another design in mind and after doing it, I did not end up liking it. Renata was willing to remove it and suggested a different take on the design which came out to be these beautiful ribbons! She has a variety of rhinestone options but I opted for red. Renata also offered me a refreshment drink. Come in here ready to get pampered and receive the best service. 10/10 recommend! read more
