    I came for a gel manicure and pedicure but once I saw how my pedicure was going I let them know I wouldn't be doing the mani anymore. I hadn't done my toes for months bc it was a luxury for my finances. I finally had the time and money to go and I'm so disappointed:( this was 40$. I really wish I didn't come here, I only came because my mother is in the hospital near here. The lady was nice but I will not be going again.

    "Tony Tony," I called out to the owner while his wife worked on my dip nails. After the forth time hollaring- Tony. The wife replies -"His names Mike." I started laughing soooooo HARD, I almost fell outta my chair! The wife of the owner goes-YOU'VE BEEN GONE TOO LONG. It's true, I hadn't been at my fav nail salon in Alllllllll of L.A. in over 5+ years. So long, I forgot their names. I go-"But, I'm gonna call him Tony anyways. He looks like a Tony." Everyone's laughing by now. "Or Jackie Chan,"-I go. Lmao. The wife is cracking up now! She goes-"Do you even remember my name?" I go-"Yeah it's Jackie!" She's laughing hysterically- "No, it's Kathy, Nadia you've been gone too long." The jokes continue- " So next time I call to make an appointment, I'm gonna ask-Hey is Jackie available for Dip Nails?" Now more laughter just escaping from both us ladies. Kathy goes-"That's fine you make appt with Jackie, and you come here we make you wait...no Jackie." LmFao. I JUST CANT!!! This should sum up how AMAZING MIKE AND KATHY ARE. This hubby and wife duo are unstoppable. They are so caring, there's no bad vibes here, just stories, jokes, and laughs. They said... in all the time I was gone they missed my laugh, and remembered me by my laugh. They truly made me feel like a part of the Vina Nails family. At one point they said that laughter is good luck for them. I have brought, my friends, and family to this location. Finally, a spot where you don't have to worry about shit talking, or bad vibes. I LOVE THAT!! Everyone is made to feel important, and beautiful here. All people are welcomed. I even had a few chats with customers. If anyone wants a partner to do nails with on a girlie date. Message me, we'll make it happen. Or going solo, tell them Nadia the red haired girl who laughs a lot sent ya. Kathy and Mike will be so happy. You'll be taken care of. -Mike offered a bottled water!! Ty! -Kathy helped me choose natural colors for my nails! -There's private parking, or street parking! -Pedicure & manicure special Monday-Wednesday! -Newly remodeled looks amazing!!! -$45 for dip nails-they last a month! Longer than acrylic. They can be applied to your natural nails. It doesn't stink, like polishes or gels. Natural option. Try it if you haven't. (Next time, I'll Make a video for you guys) Kathy was also one of the first ever to get certified for SNS dip nails before they became popular. So, she's literally the OG in dip nails. I love coming here, and even after being MIA for so long, the love I received upon my return was so refreshing, and totally mind blowing. Thanks Mike, and Kathy for being so amazing and loving.

    Extremely disappointed with the service. It took over an hour and a half to get a regular gel x manicure. Lady that helped me had a terrible attitude. When I asked her to please be gentle she just giggled and continued to be rough. I asked if she was mad or if she needed to get another tech to do my nails. Since there was no one else available, I just sucked it up until the service was done. When the service was done, it looked terrible. There was cotton stuck in the nails, nail polish was all over my fingers, nails were missing polish. It was a mess. Who I think may have been the owner did offer to make it right but I had already wasted almost two hours there, and I had things to do. So she just polished off some of the polish and I left the salon. Needless to say, I will never be coming back. My cuticles had multiple cuts and were sensitive for days. Place has really lost its glamour, professionalism and good costumer service. Vibe is off now.

    I loved the ladies that are here. The only thing is that after couple days the gel on my nails started to peel. It's very unfortunate and I wished it didn't happen. I went back and got it fixed for free, but it peeled again the very next day.

    My nail ended up chipping the very same day. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else!

    Love my gel manicure!

    I live down the street and decided to try this salon, I was very impressed! Great gel manicure, fantastic service and selection of colors. All the polishes are well-organized, very clean salon and friendly staff. It was a very hot day, so the owner offered me a water to cool down. Was very cool inside the salon, air conditioned. Covid safe space, both customers and staff were wearing masks. 2 weeks later and the gel manicure has not really lasted, but I still enjoyed the experience

    I've been coming since i was 7 years old and brought my daughter to do her nails for the first time. Let me just say Mike and the whole crew are amazing, I don't trust anyone else to do my daughter nails like mike. They were sweet and gentle with her she keeps showing her hands because she's so happy. Love them give them a chance you won't be disappointed.

    Really clean nail salon w nice nail techs, Cathy did a nice job w my nails. I'll come back if I'm ever in the area again.

    What I asked for vs what I got
    Ciara G.

    I wish I could give zero stars. DO NOT go here. My nails turned out a completely different color than advertised. I couldn't stop them in advance because dip nail doesn't show its real color until the end. I always assume it'll be a shade or two off but not two totally different colors. They would not give me a refund or let me change out the color without being charge. UPDATE: I wrote this while waiting to get my nails redone... AFTER they argued with me multiple times that it wasn't there fault and that I had to pay for a new set or leave. They also said that the color I saw on their display nail had faded and hadn't been updated in 5 years... how is that my fault?? Update your display and this wouldn't be an issue...They were willing to let me leave with my nails like that... and didn't change their mind about me paying for it until I was at the checkout counter. Mind you, they just did gel on top of the dip nail and it's already chipped on two fingers after 2 days because it wasn't properly placed. Review photos.

    I wanted to like this place. They were kind enough to take me and my cousin as walk ins on Mother's Day for a fill and pedi for myself and a polish change and nail fix for her. We arrived around 1:45-2pm or so. We were told that it would be about a 30 minute wait. We agreed. We waited patiently for what seemed like more than 30 minutes. It was actually an hour. No one checked in to say they were running later than expected. We assumed they were still ok to take us. From this moment, I can only speak on my experience. When it was finally our turn to sit in the chair, the gentleman who did my nails repeatedly implied (nicely) that we should have called before coming and that it's better to make an appointment and on and on. His comments made me feel uncomfortable, only because they agreed to take us on a walk in basis. If it was an imposition to accommodate us, it would have been ok to say they could not take walk ins at the moment. I would have happily made an appointment or gone elsewhere at another time. Anyway, The manicurist basically rushed me through. My nails looked thick and lumpy, the polish was not cleaned up around my cuticles. When I pointed out the imperfections, he tried to correct a couple of them but left the others as they were. He just kept repeating that we should have made an appointment, he needed to get home and that they closed soon (it was about 3:45-4:00pm at this time). I was then informed that time did not permit for the pedicure they agreed to see me for. I didn't make a fuss--clearly they were understaffed (something they already knew when they agreed to see us). Sadly, I will not visit this salon again. I'll post pics below (excuse my dry hands at the time of the pics ). Good luck to anyone who visits this salon. I will say that the staff was friendly if nothing else. Just disorganized. Hopefully, you'll have a better experience than I.

    Nails , these are horrible!!!

    Kathy is amazing! And so is Mike! Unfortunately I went another time and had an issue with my nails (see pictures). Kathy and Mike were on vacation and when they found out her and Mike redid my nails for free! The girl who wrecked my nails seemed to be new and cut them so short my fingers bled! On top of that when she applied polish, it bubbled and peeled right off before even exiting the salon. She said it looked beautiful and I knew it didn't there was nothing amazing about them. The girl next to her was in such shock seeing my fingers the look on her face was priceless! Not only were my nails messed up they told me I would have to come back the following day to fix them. I wore gloves the rest of the evening I was truly embarrassed to be seen. Kathy and Mike came back and redid my entire set of nails with such an amazing job. Where they don't lack is customer service and this is why I gave 4 Stars. At the end of the day the owners customer service is quality, their manicurists just need more training.

I was a walk in and didn't have time to wait. I instead got Saline, who was AMAZING. She truly listened to everything I told her, made her presence known throughout the massage but not too much, so I was able to fully relax. I cannot say enough good things about this massage. The space itself was cramped and no frills and some of the pressure is on fellow GUESTS to keep their voices down (please keep this in mind!) but it has everything. The space felt clean and cozy. I went for a 1.5 hour massage which felt like a splurge because it was longer than I normally do, but their prices were so reasonable and I had just come off a very long work week that it felt needed. The massage was so incredibly relaxing and left me in a little bit of pain in a good way. I knew Saline had found a lot of my deep knots, so there was no way for it to be without pain, but every fit of it was so worth it. It was so relaxing and I left feeling 100x better than when I came in. It was a little hard to find because it's on a small strip mall, but now that I know where it is I won't miss it.

I specifically paid for a Swedish massage because I prefer a gentler massage with more oil and less deep pressure. Before the massage started, the therapist suggested I switch to a combination massage because she said I was very tense. I initially declined, but trusted her recommendation and agreed. One of the reasons I normally avoid combination massages is because I don't like therapists standing on my back. During the massage, she put her full weight on my lower back. It was so painful that I immediately told her it hurt and asked her to be gentler. While the rest of the massage was okay, I was already in pain and couldn't relax. I came in to unwind--not because I had any back pain or injury. On my way home, my lower back was throbbing. The next morning, I could barely get out of bed. I still went to work, but the pain was severe. It's now been about two weeks, and my lower back is still hurting. I've had many massages over the years and have never experienced anything like this. I was also concerned about the cleanliness. They no longer use the disposable face cradle covers they used to provide, and the I had my face on had an unpleasant odor. I can't say whether the linens were changed, but based on what I experienced, I left feeling uncomfortable about the cleanliness. Overall, this was not a relaxing experience. Instead, I left with an injury that I'm still dealing with. I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this place based on my experience.

The very friendly girl at the Moxy front desk recommended Silver Lake Spa and casually dropped the words "mid-week special." $55 for one hour. Sign. Me. Up. No questions asked. Just one boundary: if I get poked, I'm out. The place is modest and unassuming. JJ was my therapist. Between my moaning, grunting, and aggressively pointing at my neck and shoulders (note to self: don't lift weights the day before a six-hour flight), we agreed on a relaxing Thai/Swedish combo. Friends... JJ knew exactly what she was doing. She found knots in my skull. My actual skull. Then proceeded to perform some kind of kung-fu Thai magic where I felt what used to be my brain turn back into mush--in the best way. She moved to my shoulders and back, mixing deep Thai stretches with light kneading, locating muscle kinks like five-carat diamonds and polishing them until they no longer existed. At one point I'm fairly certain I was purring. HR would not approve. Then came the oil and relaxation portion. Pure bliss. She was gentle, focused, and so intentional that I may or may not have teared up slightly. One hour was simply not enough. I could've moved in. If you live in LA--go see JJ. If you're visiting--go see JJ. It was a glorious hour, and I'm still wiping the drool off my face. This girl is going straight to bed. But I will find JJ again. Just don't tell HR.

Although they don't say anything to you, at the end of the massage, the masseuse is waiting there with your water/tea. If for some reason you didn't want to tip, I could see it being a very awkward exit. Or if you simply can't afford the tip amounts they're recommending, it could be an awkward exit. The bed was clean and if you're a little chilly ask them to turn on the warmer. I was excited to learn this was an option. Overall great spot. I plan to go on the regular.

    Weird vibe. I used to come here all the time before it changed locations--it used to be in the…read morecorner of the mini-mall. It seems to have downsized --probably an effect of the pandemic, but also the overall feel of the business has changed drastically. There is no receptionist to greet you when you come in. They ask for payment up front. An electronic voice greeting goes off TWICE every time the door is opened, which you can hear from the massage room EVERY TIME. The same four minutes of music playing on repeat was honestly a little distracting/annoying. Weird fluorescent lighting in the massage room doesn't help. Overall, I really wanted to overlook all this stuff and just enjoy the massage, but it was not a relaxing experience. My masseuse seemed nice but spent most of the time on my back when I specifically asked her to focus on my legs. I realize how whiny and privileged this sounds, but it was so disappointing and felt like a waste of money. Do yourself a favor and just go to Yolo instead.
