THIS IS THE PLACE TO DO DIP POWDER. Lily is the absolute BEST - not only is she detailed and thorough, but also my nails last more than a month! As a comparison, when I've had dip nails done in the past, they always started cracking at around the two-week mark. And then I would do what every nail tech tells you NOT to do - I would start cracking and peeling them off and ruining my nails in the process. But Lily's work is so strong that it could probably last two months. The only reason I get them re-done each month is that my nails become so long they make really annoying loud clack-clack-clack sounds at work when I'm typing LOL Other things I love: - prices are very reasonable compared to how much dip powder costs elsewhere (and this can't be emphasized enough, but ESPECIALLY for the quality of Lily's work!) - very easy to make an appointment (Kyle responds within minutes when I message him through Yelp) - easy parking in the back - they offer water / soft drinks during your service - super clean - all their tools are cleaned and sanitized, and they put a plastic lining in their pedicure tubs - have had pedicures done with Helen and Annie and they're both so sweet and do a great job read more

QQ Nails Spa - Ombré nails by Lily after ONE MONTH!!!! So pretty still - Nail Salons Near Me - Arcadia, California

Great salon, great service and great people. I love that they used callous remover and files to take off all the dead skin (a lot of places don't use foot files lately). And a perfect mani / pedi for the whole family (including a kids manicure which was done with just filing and polish). But that's not why they are forever the best salon. I dropped my custom designed diamond ring into the foot spa when I was about to leave my appointment. It went straight into the drain. After much struggle trying to retrieve it, I gave up and asked Q maybe as a last ditch if she would be willing to call a plumber (and I'd pay). It's not an easy drain to just take apart. She told me she would try, but for now, closed off the chair so noone else would use it. I left really bummed out and pretty sure it was lost forever. The next morning Q called me before the salon opened and said she had gotten a plumber to open up the pipe from the back of the chair and found the ring! She would not take any money for the plumber either. You don't encounter people like the ones that are at this salon and I'd give them my business anytime. read more

I really liked it here the staff was so friendly. They greet you with a cold bottle of water and a menu of their services with the prices Lily did my nails and she is a perfectionist and very friendly. My nails came out beautiful and she sure made sure I liked them every step of the way. Anna also did my feet very nice and clean. It is a little pricey they charge for everything but i think that's how it is now at most salons in 2019. The only part I was not happy about was how long my acrylic set took. I'm always rushing and I like to be in and out in one hour or less but I was her for almost two hours but again it's because of all the detail and precision they put in. So I honestly would only come back if I wasn't in a rush. read more

I wish i can put 5 negative star. I got my nails done on Saturday (10/9/21) and that same day one of my nails broke while i was getting ready to greet friends over therefore i had no time to come back and get it fix as i live 30 mins away. Worst part was the next day 2 more nails broke off and this awful location is closed Sunday and Monday. I finally was able to call the this morning and the very unprofessional man that picked up the phone verbally assaulted me over the phone because he couldn't understand why i wanted my money back. I explained very politely what happened and his response was "well it didn't break when you were here so it's not our fault". A case is already open for this awful incident. Please avoid places like this where they don't care about their customers only money they don't deserve. read more

My first time getting acrylics was wonderful! All the ladies were so sweet, focusing on every little detail to make sure my nails were perfect. Not once did I feel uncomfortable, and it was a very calming process. I absolutely love my nails, and how much effort and time they were willing to spend on them. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone :) read more

best spot for pedicures!! the service is amazing as the staff are all very nice and friendly and the owner, Mini, always fits me in even last minute! the quality of their work is amazing. the pedicures are always done meticulously and they are very diligent. 10/10!! read more

New management. it's the second time I called for two pedicures with certain people and when I arrive they give me someone else because they're not available. The first time, i let it slide. The second I CLEARLY asked for Annie AND Tina when I made the appointment the day before. When I arrived there were two completely different people. So again, I asked for Annie and Tina and they said yes they're coming. Someone else was going to get started on my mom and so I said, no she wants Tina. And they said they don't have a Tina. SO why didn't they mention that when I asked for her when I called? I asked them why we weren't getting any girl we asked for and they said I never scheduled an appointment when I know for a fact we were set for 6pm on 02/08. The woman there said she was waiting for me yesterday 02/07. How is that possible? I used to be a consistent client but I most likely won't go back. What's the point of an appointment with certain people if it's not going to happen? read more

Will keep coming here for any thing I need, when I can. Don't even bother reading reviews just go here and be satisfied. I been to many nails salons in my time.... Never had this kind of quality. Ever. And like I said b4 pics can only show you so much. read more

I went in today because I had my nails done elsewhere and they did not have the Pearl chrome powder. This place took me in right away, but this review is for the pricing. Like I said, I just came from another nail salon and had a full set on I just wanted powder. I called and asked how much for dip manicure and the chrome powder. Lady said "chrome powder is 10 dalla extra" That's fine That's all I needed. Went in She charged me $20!!!!!!! She rubbed powder on my nails and put 2 thick top coats that actually wound up leaving bubbles all over my new dip manicure I have never been to this location to get my nails done but I will not be returning to get ripped off and have to run to my car so that I don't get run over (parking is horrid) (ie: go down a narrow ally to park in back) or bombarded by the homeless who kick it outside this business. Sorry dude (homeless guy) I have no change or dollar to give you because QQ take all my $$. This place is a RIP OFF A 20 DALLA RIP OFF!!!!! read more

Review long overdue. I've been coming here for months now and absolutely love the service, cleanliness of the place. Easy to make appointments on Yelp, Kyle answers quick and always makes sure I'm taken care of. For my dipping powder I always go with Lina, she's amazing, never disappoints, and she's also super sweet. So glad that I found this place when I was going to Dr. appointments in Pasadena! read more

These are new owners. They are NOT the same owners from 1 yr ago. Dont be fooled by reviews below. I've been going to who are now the new owners (MIMI) for over 15 yrs. Followed her from San Dimas to Bellflower... driving over 50 miles to and from. Had been totally pleased until she transferred to QQ Nails. Now, the lack of professionalism is disturbing and unsettling. Simple requests such as designs or fixing bubbled polish should not be an issue. However, her (MIMI) attitude is the worst. After 15 years, I'm done. I pay too much money only to be DISRESPECTED!!! DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. Very unprofessional. read more

I love the ambiance of this place and they have amazing service. But their nails don't last... I got dip nails and they started falling off after 10 days. I let them know so I went back to get it fixed. She said my nails were too oily and that's why they fell off? So she recommended doing gel. So I paid for a new gel set which I've gotten may times other places. I've never had my gel peel off like this. I want to support this local spot because they're so nice but the work doesn't live up to my expectations. read more

Beautiful!!! Today Jean (Acrylic-master-extraordinaire) did my acrylic fill and then Lily (owner-and-awesome-at-everything) did my gel polish. It came out beautiful and perfect as always!!! I've been coming here for about 6 months now and I love the people and the amazing service! I also love how you can spur-of-the moment make an appointment through the Yelp message, and they always reply within about 5-10 minutes and find a time to squeeze me in that day. I'll be coming here for a long time!! read more

I have being going to this salon every two weeks for four months now and I am so happy with their work. I don't make appointments but when I walk in on Friday afternoons, they have always helped me right away and when I walked in on a Saturday morning, they were able to tell me to come back in 1.5 hrs and I went to the mall to walk and then came back. All the ladies that have done my nails- manicures and pedicures - have done a great job! This time I asked for a holiday design and I think they came out so cute! Thank you, Lily! read more

Wonderful service!! I'm a DIY kinda girl when it comes to my nails because the overall experience at nail salons haven't been so good. I must say, so far-so good! As soon as I walked in, the lady standing behind the front counter was welcoming. Still here & waiting for my nails to be completed and still I feel extremely relaxed. So happy to have found this salon read more

My experience was okay, I feel like my last visit was a bit more pleasing, but I felt slightly annoyed. I know some things are meant to be brought to attention, but it felt a bit too annoying. The quality of what I received was not bad. After a long day at work, I want to unwind. Maybe in a month, I'll have a better experience, or I could always seek another place to make it easier. Be aware, you might be questioned repeatedly. read more

The guy who serviced me cut me to the point I went "Ow!" and it kept bleeding. This has never happened to me at any of the salons I've been to. But I still continued the service thinking it was going to be ok after. Turns out it was NOT ok!! My toe is infected and has pus coming out of it. It's super swollen and painful to walk on. I do not recommend going to the guy for a pedicure. Super rough and bad experience. He kept clipping the sides of my toes and pulling it off. Didn't wear gloves either. Very painful. 0/10 big no no. read more

Mimi has been doing my nails for 10 years now. I followed her to QQ nails Arcadia from Paramount. She never disappoints EVER!!! she is totally worth the drive to see her. Check out the Valentine's Nails she did for me. She did a light pink with chrome and added some hearts and bling to jazz up my nails. My nails are long coffin gelx. Mimi is the best, Kai is the bomb for pedicures! I love the shape of my nails and the wide selection of colors. read more

I missed QQ Nails! I returned when the governor gave the OK for salons to open. They are doing an AMAZING job keeping everything clean. They have the required protocols down. Appointments only- and they only allow a certain amount of people for each appointment block. When I was there for my appointment there was only one other customer there for most of it, towards the end there were two- so maximum about three customers at a time. Everyone wears masks of course, and when you walk in they take your temperature. Then you sanitize your hands, sign in, sanitize again, then wash your hands in their sink at the back. read more

So this is my second time getting the dip powder here and it looks amazing! The first time looked good and did not chip at all for a month, so I was sold on that. But It was a tad thick on my nail for my liking. I have big nail beds so It made my nails look fat. But this time she was willing to accommodate me and did it a little thinner and I'm in love with the results . I also really appreciate the precautions they take here to keep people distanced and safe. Honestly I feel safer here then going to the store. If you are looking for a place that will make you feel safe and do a great job, come here! read more

Made a last minute appointment for regular mani pedis for my daughter (4 yr old ) and myself. Staff was very easy going and we enjoyed our experience. I definitely would recommend making an appointment as opposed to walking in because while we were there we saw 2 people be turned away because they didn't have an appointment or anyone to service them. There were not many side conversations going on with all the nail techs which I found refreshing because it felt like they were all just focused on their clients. The lady who worked on my daughter was very patient and took very good care of my daughter. After she was finished, another nail tech offered to paint some flowers and designs on her and she was very shy about it in the salon but has been showing them off everyday since so out of the kindness of her heart she made my daughter so happy. The tech helping me was very calming and made suggestions for me to help my nails with what they needed. Very nice and considerate people working here. We will definitely be back. read more

The nicest workers out of all the nail salons I've visited. They remember you and care about their customers.

Love this place! They are efficient perfectionists! Lina is my go-to manicurist and she amazes me every single time! Her work is as close to flawless as humanly possible! Best part is their prices are not outrageous! I used to go to places in Glendora and Pasadena and the work was mediocre and wayyyyy more expensive! I highly recommend this place, I finally found a solid go-to! read more

My heart pains to write this and been contemplating. Until I also read some recent reviews about new management and now I understand why my experience must have been so negative. I use to come here every couple weeks to pamper myself until I had to move for a job. I came back to visit family and wanted to pamper myself at my old go to. Well it wasn't the same experience at all and the place looked a little run down. They were nice at first until they seemed to get a little busier and then you could tell they started to get stressed and rushed every part of my service. The quality of service ended up being so terrible I debated if tipping was even worth it but I still did because I believe in karma. I hope they can get a grip and hire more staff so the quality of service improves. read more
