I loved how easy it was to make an appointment directly from the website, and how it allowed me to make the same day appointment with published fares with nothing hidden. As soon as I walked in a guy greeted me and confirmed my appointment and when I asked to change my service from regular pedicure to gel pedicure he accepted with no issue. My technician was Lily - the sweetest and kind lady who listened to what I wanted and ensured to fulfill my needs of not making the gel too thick. She did ask if I wanted to add on additional service but when I declined there was no pressure and she went on with the service I had initially requested for. The salon was very clean and everyone was kind. The only con I can think of during my experience was that when choosing the color for my gel, I felt a bit pressured as he was standing next to me as if waiting to hurry and pick the color. Other than that, they brought me complimentary drink and was friendly and will definitely be visiting again. read more

Compared to many other Vietnamese-owned nail salons I've been to, the staff here weren't chatting loudly with each other in Vietnamese the whole time, so the atmosphere was quiet and much more relaxing. The salon itself was clean and well maintained. I was hoping to use a massage chair, but they didn't have one. I should have asked about that when I made the appointment. I got a regular polish manicure and pedicure, a girl got a gel manicure and pedicure, and my partner had a foot care treatment. We spent around $400 in total. The work was okay. They accept tips through Venmo, so you don't have to worrying about having cash. read more

Verni Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Torrance, California

My first time here and I enjoyed my experience. Second time, not so much. Like another reviewer stated, what I asked for on my pedi was overidden by the tech doing my mani who said they'd let me know after seeing my nails. What?? I just asked for my nails to be cut short not anything fancy. This isn't my first rodeo getting a mani pedi in my life. And she wasn't even doing my pedicure. She actually ended up painting my toes though and while I didn't request three coats of polish, she took the liberty of doing so and I didn't notice until she got to the second foot when I noticed how thick the polish was. I told her that next time I only want two coats. She replied that next time I need to tell her but how would I think she'd do three coats when she did only two on my hands? I am a little surprised at her retort. I still tipped generously because I appreciate the intention but not likely to come back. read more

I've been coming to Verni for almost a year now, and honestly the only reason I even switched was because my old spots just weren't the same anymore. My nail guy's work started slipping, and the woman I used to go to for pedicures retired, so I had to find somewhere new. I decided to try this place because I saw a really strong, genuine review -- and I'm big on quality. Plus the outside and inside is super cute and clean!! I'm the type of person who finds a place I trust and sticks with them for years. I'm also very particular, (as you know with everything) Lol especially when it comes to my nails. I've been getting them done since I was 12 with my grandma, so I know exactly what I like. That being said, this place really delivers when it comes to quality -- especially Morgan and Vu. Morgan does my nails and she really listens. She pays attention to the details that matter to me, like getting the polish close to the edge, shaping them exactly how I like, and helping me choose the right colors. But, most of the time I bring my own. :) Vu does my pedicures, he is sooo nice and a sincere person, and I don't even have to say much -- he just knows what he's doing. I always leave feeling super relaxed, and honestly, he gives one of the best massages I've had. Overall, I'm really happy I found this place. Definitely one of those spots where you can tell they care about their work. Another win for me! Cheers to continued business together for the years to come!! read more

Thanks Verni Nail Spa for quite the first impression, I enjoyed my nail tech Lucy she is friendly and professional. They do services like nails, waxing and eyelashes. There was an Easter activity they had for their patrons and had some cool giveaways at the time. It seems they are a great place for nail salon. It's clean and modern looking. Note: they don't have prices up on a menu board I would suggest calling in to inquire their services if you need that info. read more

Really enjoyed the young ladies my friend and I had. They were great. Inside doesn't smell like the typical nail salon. Which is great! Pricing is very reasonable and they don't push extras on you at all. Love the pedicures that were given. Easy to book online. Seats comfyyyyyy! We will be back next month for sure. Thanks! Suggest the Scrubby Dubby! read more

Update: a few months after my initial review! I am still so pleased with the service here. The attention to detail and precision is making this salon my go-to. I have tried other nail salons in the area, even ones in the same block as this salon and find myself coming back here. Yes, the prices are more than some other places around here, but it's worth it. I switched to hard gel (builder gel) and haven't had a broken nail or lifted gel since I switched over. For hard gel fill and french tip, it was $82. Worth it! read more

The whole experience has been very wonderful for both me and my husband. If you follow my reviews, you know I got actually a super-bad cut at my last salon, and was hesitant to even get a manicure at all! Verni has helped me get over that fear. We have our "regular" techs for mani/pedi, and even brought our college-age daughter along for a pedi when she was home from school. The greeting is very warm, the waters and soda are cold, and there is NOT a lot of pressure or upsell. They techs seem to really care about your experience and not just a volume turnover. It may be a little more $$ but it is well worth it for a pampering experience! read more

If you're looking for the best manicure in town, go visit Verni Nails and ask for Vivian! She always does an incredible job my nails have never looked better. She's professional, detail-oriented, and truly takes her time to make sure everything is perfect. Vivian recently started offering Russian manicures. My nails are healthier, cleaner, and more polished than ever before. Her precision and care are unmatched. Huge thank you to Vivian and the entire staff at Verni Nails for always creating such a welcoming and relaxing experience. Highly recommend! read more

Always a pleasant experience, offering tons of color options and designs. Staff is professional, friendly and well experienced.

I received a gift certificate for this nail spa and I am happy with the service provided. My appointment was on a Sunday at 10:15 am. Recommend making an appointment as it got busy as I was being worked on. Location was clean, modern and newly renovated. My pedicurist was great . She offered additional services but wasn't pushy. Was offered some tea... good gesture. All in all I recommend, will definitely go back. Prices were reasonable, even though I had a gift certificate, I tipped. read more

I really want to like this place as it is a very convenient location, has plenty of parking, and is easy to book online/on the phone. I have been here 10 times in the last 8 months or so. The service I have received (I'm talking about mani/pedi service as well as customer service) has been all over the place - sometimes extremely friendly, sometimes mildly friendly, and other times borderline rude (almost as if my appointment is a hinderance). Overall, I have been pretty happy with the different manicures and pedicures I've received, but my most recent gel French manicure was deplorable. I successfully communicated to the nail tech that I preferred clear polish rather than pink/nude as the base, but I asked the nail tech 3 times to please cut my nails short and she would simply not cut my nails. She kept filing. I have had more manicures than I can count at various shops over the years and I have never had a manicure where my nails were not cut. I know that I should have asked someone at the front desk to come over, and it's a shame that I didn't. One of my nails is already chipping after less than 48 hours, which I truly don't believe has ever happened on a gel manicure - possibly from only having one coat of polish and one top coat? Mind you this manicure is $60. I told the woman at the front desk about the nail tech not cutting my nails and she said she would have the manager call me. I insisted it wasn't necessary - just to please let nail techs know that if a customer is asking multiple times to cut their nails, please cut their nails! read more

Gel-X was terrible! After 5 days my nails are already lifting and after paying $130 you'd expect better quality. The nail tech did not soak my nails or do proper cuticle care. Also left with a bloody nail from the nail drill. If you're going to come here only get pedicures! read more

So sad that the quality of this place changed after their remodel. I went yesterday, and now both of my big toes were swollen, sore, and even bleeding slightly when I woke up. The prices are crazy now. I spent about $150 or more on my visit for a full set and whatever pedi that came with a scrub. The same treatment I used to get now costs like $20 more. I also got the simplest flower ever on my ring finger that I could have done myself and I think I was charged super extra for it and they're not even symmetrical. My full set looks really nice, but the UV flashlight they started using to dry the glue quicker was uncomfortable. Also, I made an appt for that full set and pedi, but didn't get my pedicure for about a half hour because only 4 people were working. I unfortunately won't be coming back read more

These look terrible!! I asked for coffin and natural pink. Wanted it to look at subtle as possible! He put sooo much paint on them. And when I tried to tell him there was too much paint on the first coat. He got mad and told me to wait. That it'll look better after the second coat. It literally looks like I dipped my nails in a bucket of paint. So upset. Wouldn't recommend. They knew I wasn't happy and didn't even try to fix read more

The manager at this shop, Annie, is very courteous and accommodating. She is there to get business. She served me at the initial visit. Unfortunately, one cannot make an appointment with her and expect her to keep it. There is always a substitute without advance warning. Therefore, I was served by many others, but not Annie. The others would often call out or shout comments to each other in their native langauge, while serving me. Otherwise, they made little effort to talk to me in English, and I felt like an inanimate object. Further, in a phone discussion, their reaction was that I didn't like them, and they seemed to resent it. In my opinion, this is not acceptable customer service particularly if the goal is to establish repeat business.Hopefully, you speak their native language and should get along fine here otherwise. read more

Love Verni Nails! Their quality and atmosphere makes getting my nails done so enjoyable. My best friend and I have been going to Verni for about 3 years now. Since the remodel, they have been even better! All nail techs do a great job no matter who I get. I enjoy how personable Annie the owner is to everyone and she also does great nails and brows! I would recommend to everyone read more

Stopped by Verni Nail Spa after work for a mani-pedi. The place was clean, but the service felt rushed. My nails looked okay, but a few chipped within two days. For the price, I expected better. Probably won't be back. read more

Update... nails lasted almost two weeks. There products suck. All my nails started to lift what a horrible fill. One nail fell off last week one week after getting my nails done. I went in to get a fix and they asked me to come back another day because there wasn't someone there to fix my nail because the guy didn't know how to do acrylic or gel builder. I told him I couldn't. Someone ended up fixing my nail that day, but didn't even know how to do the design. I got so it didn't look that great then they told me that they were going to not charge me for the nail as if I should be grateful like they gave me something however, I wasn't gonna pay to get a nail fixed. That's been broken less than a week after I got them done. This shouldn't be happening to me regardless I always get my nails done and they last me at least a month especially with gel builder. They also rip you off. I paid $95 for this FILL!!!! read more

After researching reviews on nail shops, I landed on Vernie decided I wanted to see a particular person named Morgan because of reviews that she had. Their online appointment system wouldn't let me make an appointment with Morgan so when I went in on Wednesday 21 May, they asked if I had made an appointment with someone in particular I said yes, but it wouldn't let me pick that person. They said it was an error and they'll get it fixed. At that moment, Morgan was busy so I said I'll come back tomorrow if she has an appointment available tomorrow so I made an appointment for 130 with Morgan. That was for today the 22nd. I walked in at 1:24 PM and there was somebody sitting in front of her being taken care of and they said don't worry she's just finishing up a polish so I thought nothing of it. 15 minutes later I look over and she is filing this woman's nails. So I got up. I went to the front desk and I told the lady there I don't do this. When I have an appointment, I expect the person to be on time even if it's not to the minute, but they need to be on time. I said I'll come back tomorrow if she has a time tomorrow, what is her first available And she said her first available's already taken. I said OK she goes. Let me check Friday I said no I'm getting my nails done for Friday. I don't have time to come in on Friday. So I had to walk out for the second time in a row without getting my nails done. I don't know the job these people do as far as how well they do Nails because I didn't get to find out. But I will not and cannot go to a shop that can't be on time better than 30 to 45 minutes from a scheduled appointment. So my search continues to find another shop. Update: I have no issues waiting a few minutes, the salon only had 1 customer at the time I walked in. I was told she was finishing up polish, that was not true. No one files after polish so thank you for trying to make sense of the situation but it was as I stated. read more

I got natural set of gel-x from here around june 21st and they're still holding so strong. This is my second time trying gel-x and this salon surprisingly did them so well that they still feel and look as good as new. I can't remember my nail techs name but i'll definitely be back! read more

Zero if possible. I had gel x done at another salon. I only did the gels once. Before that my nails were super thick and healthy. I went to Verni to have the gel c removed and my nails buffed out. The nail tech seemed annoyed right away probably because I wasn't having a new set out on. Well... she grinned my nails down to the point that nail bed is protruding through, and this is on every nail. I'm in so much pain and I had to go to urgent care. I literally had to stop the nail tech and tell her no more. The nail tech kept saying that the previous nail lady did my gel x too thick, which I agree, but I don't understand how grinding my nails until the bleed and those nail bed is showing is helpful. DONT GO HERE. This place will cause you more harm than good and will cost you a big urgent care bill read more

Ask for Tina and Alyssa! They did amazing job for my mani pedi. The host at the desk very politely helped me understand their options over the phone and booked me immediately (last appointment of the day w/ no stress or pressure or problems!) when I walked in I was kindly welcomed and helped even more with choosing my color. The salon is very clean and soft feeling. I'm very happy I came here. read more

It pains me to write this review. My favorite salon that I have come to for 8 years is officially now awful and shady. I got a full set yesterday, I wanted French. The guy didn't speak or understand any English and just couldn't understand what I wanted, he did coffin when I wanted square, wouldn't do the length I wanted, picked a sheer pink when I wanted matte and painted the white tip so messy and smeared. I showed him a picture of what I wanted several times!! I was there for 2 hours. My appointment was at 3 and I left at 5. I was so frustrated that I said forget it and just paint my nails one color that's how bad he did the French. He literally did the worst job just painting them. I paid 60.00 plus 10.00 tip. The owner told me I could come back today and someone else could fix them. So I did come back, they literally tried to charge me another 10.00 for getting French when that's what I originally wanted! They are lying about prices, a full set is 50.00, another worker told me bc I wanted them long they charge an extra 5.00 but I was charged an extra 10.00. No apology for wasting my time, coming back to get them fixed etc, instead it was MORE money! When I told her I was shocked she said nevermind and I didn't have to pay. I still tipped the new guy who fixed them 10.00 so I spent 80.00 for this mess. These ppl are insane bc they want your money but don't want to do a basic decent job! If you're going to change a premium price the work must also be premium. These ppl are lying and price gouging and that's the thanks I get for being a loyal customer for 8 years. NEVER AGAIN and I know I'm not the only one bc this place is always empty now. read more

Awful service and communication skills. I called this morning to make a reservation for 4 people. Me and my girls to celebrate my birthday. We booked the appointment to 6pm. We were all there on time. There was nobody available to do our pedicure and manicure until 6:25pm. A friend started before because everyone else was busy with other clients, even though we scheduled the appointment prior. They didn't have a manicure to do my nails. I wanted acrylic/ powder. After waiting for 45 minutes they told me they could not do my nails because they closed at 7pm. Thank you very much for your consideration on my time. And that is fluent sarcasm. read more

The worst nail experience I've ever had. I use to frequent here. Kelly was always nice and accommodating but today was the opposite experience. I walked in just to get my dip powder removed.

I asked the man at the front desk if I could switch nail techs and he dismissed my concerns and I later overheard him talking about our interaction to another tech; so unprofessional. Will not return. read more
