One detail I love is how their TVs actually face the chairs--it makes the experience more enjoyable and relaxing. My nails have always turned out flawless, and I've never had any issues with their work. Last time JC was the one who helped me out and it was very easy to work with her. It's also convenient that they have a parking lot, which makes it easy to visit without worrying about finding a spot. I'll definitely be coming back!

My…read moreusual salon didn't have any availability, so I searched "nails near me" and found The Basic Nail Shop. I called, and Trish was incredibly helpful. She managed to fit me in and was so kind about it. From the moment I walked in, the salon felt clean, spacious, and welcoming. Chi did my pedicure, and she was amazing. Super friendly, funny, and very detail-oriented. She took her time, especially with the corners of my toes (which are always tricky for me), and finished with a relaxing massage. Ann did my Gel-X set, and she was just as wonderful. She really listened to the shape I wanted and took her time to make sure everything looked perfect. While checking out, I met one of the owners, Alex. He was so genuine and truly cared about my experience. He shared that they built the business from the ground up and are celebrating their third anniversary in August. You can really feel the pride he has in the shop. I rarely write reviews, but this place is a hidden gem in Pasadena. I wasn't planning on switching salons, but they definitely gained a new customer!

My pedicure was really poorly done - it seemed like it was her first time ever doing nails. The nails were cut unevenly, she didn't do any sort of cuticle care, barely even took all the previous paint off that I had, then painted sooooo poorly... it looked like I could've done better. My manicure was ok... but felt really upcharged for a gel builder ($60???!) The ladies were super sweet but I think they need some more skilled technicians in here. It also was really cold and chairs were not very comfortable. It got the job done but I won't be returning!

This was my second time at this nail shop. The first time, I walked in hoping to get a gel…read moremanicure. The lady who noticed me asked me to pick a color. Her tone was kind of rough and rude. I find their gel color selection to be limited. There were only two sheets of colors. Maybe the other color samples were given to other customers or somewhere else???? I even asked her if there were more colors to choose from and she pointed to the same two samples she had. I was told to pick a color and wait. After waiting for 15 minutes I left. There are three other nail shops in this Sierra Madre Foothills shopping area. This nail shop is relatively new so I decided to give it a try. But there are plenty of options within a 1/2 mile radius and other shops have more color selection. I was in the area again three weeks later, and decided to given them another try. I walked in and a different lady greeted me and informed me there is only a short wait and asked me to pick a color. I was there to remove my gel manicure and I wanted to do a regular manicure to give my nails a break from all the chemicals from gel. After I picked a color, she told me to sit next to her and wait. I waited for about 5 minutes and she asked me to move to a different station. I didn't know why she didn't have me sit there in the first place. Regardless, I moved. If the moving around and waiting were the only issues, that would have been fine with me. The lady started cutting my nails. She was cutting so close to the skin underneath my nail, I started pulling my finger away. She yelled at me for doing that. I asked her not to cut too short. She said she's trying to make all the nails even. I had a really short one that broke off. I said it's ok to not make them even and if you are going to cut them so short and so close to the flesh underneath the nail, you need to push down the flesh, so I don't feel like you are going to cut my skin. I even gave her a suggestion on how to mitigate the situation.. I was coaching her on how to cut nails close to the skin so the client wouldn't feel like their flesh is gonna get cut. She didn't listen. I pulled away again, afraid. She yelled at me again. She said if I pull away, she can't do her job and she may end up hurting me. I said you are already hurting me and you are doing it over and over. After all the back and forth, I paid for the gel manicure removal and left. I didn't want her to file or do the coloring anymore. I didn't trust her. I never had any manicurist yelled at me or argued with me like this. I was not expecting of being fearful of getting cut and getting yelled at multiple times. The interior was spacious and new. But the service was unprofessional and the work unskilled to say the least.
