Y2K Nails - Marble design - Nail Technicians Near Me - Pasadena, California

5 Stars! The first impression was they called an establishment or when we walk in is really important professionally-From the time we called, Jocelyn was warm and knowledgeable about the services and throughout the appointment she was helpful in navigating color/styles etc. Myna, Ruby, and Vicky were kind as well. Really appreciate the warmth and kindness and nails look great looking forward to the next visit. Thanks much! read more

The experience was really disappointing. I picked a chrome color for my pedicure, but after they applied the chrome base coat, the nail tech suddenly told me the chrome powder jar was empty. Honestly, I didn't really like any of the other options, but since the base was already done, I felt pressured to just pick something. I ended up leaving the salon with a color I don't even like, which felt awful. Chrome is already an extra $20 service, yet they still charged me full price despite not being able to provide the color I originally chose. The whole experience left me feeling really frustrated and disappointed. read more

I made an appointment two days before my requested date for builder gel and a pedicure. My original appointment time was 1:45. They texted me the day before to push it to 1:30. The day OF less than an hour before my new appt time and pushed it an hour. Ok fine whatever Lisa is (I'm assuming) the owner and the receptionist interrupted three times to ask what they should tell customers throughout my appointment. She immediately told me we couldn't do builder gel because my nails were too short. Okay, I'll keep being flexible. I had chosen a design and showed.explained it to Lisa. She expressed that one of the colors I chose might be too sheer for the intended purpose, which was correct. I asked her to help me find an alternative that was lighter than the example picture. She brought me a few colors that were continuously darker. I decided to go with a solid color instead of the design I came in wanting. One of the other employees made a comment in Vietnamese that I was being difficult with my color selections. I did not engage. This did put me off vibewise though that they were busy enough to push peoples appointments, but that I couldn't ask for what I wanted to pay for. I then canceled my pedicure. Overall, the gel-x nails we did instead look nice and the price ($70) is pretty fair for the surrounding areas. I was just disappointed in the way I kept feeling put off as a paying customer. I fully recognize this is a first world problem, but it was frustrating nonetheless. read more

Unfortunately the consistency of gel builder at the salon is hit or miss depending on who you get. My nails are uneven in shape, thickness and length. I'm really disappointed and had pointed out they were not consistent during the process. My right ring finger has such a hump on it as well and doesn't match the thickness of the other nails. Two nails were filed down way too much and don't match at all. Sad to say I won't be back. read more

I discovered Y2K Nails about a year ago. It's a lovely, comfortable salon. I go for a basic pedicure most of the time. Myna is my current specialist. She is WONDERFUL. Very careful and precise, and so friendly. Also, you even get that massage chair with a basic pedicure. When I'm treating myself, I do the detox pedicure. It's super relaxing and gets all those calluses off the feet! I recommend this place highly. read more

Made an appointment and was taken within the hour. Great service and even better nails

5 stars for Jasmine the owner. She is a pro but hard to get an appointment with. 0 stars for Ruby the nail hacker who ruined my toe nails causing a split down the middle that is still healing after 6 months. That never happened in the 5 years prior that I was going to this salon. She also then proceeded to shave down my finger nails sides and top to where they became paper thin vampire looking nails. The gel-X that she applied also started peeling on 3 of my nails within a couple of days of my this disaster manicure. Once again this never happened in the 5 years I'd been going to this salon as a regular customer. I will not be returning. I didn't want to say anything because I really like the owner but it's been a few weeks and I am still so angry about what Ruby did to my nails. read more

I believe ownership has changed- as this place used to be called Emoji nails. I made an appt today and was on time. They were very over booked. All the chairs were taken, and all the employees were just starting to work on someone. There was an employee with orange/ pink hair that just kept rolling her eyes when I asked how long the wait would be since I had made an appt. And i was on time. Everyone was really rude . The vibe was terrible. read more

Omgosh... Let me start off by saying I'm so excited with this new set of nails done by Jasmine at Y2K nails today. Not only is the salon clean and fresh everyone was very very polite. I had a specific look in mind and I described it to Jasmine and she put that look on my nails. Thank you Jasmine read more

I stumbled upon Y2K while eating Thai next-door and I'm so glad that I did. My first visit I went in for a gel overlay with a simple design, and I was pleasantly surprised. My second visit I got a gel overlay and a pedicure. It was the best pedicure that I have ever had!! Mai did my pedicure and she did not disappoint -- she was so thorough. Jasmine did my nails and she is definitely an expert at what she does. The salon is welcoming, and I appreciate that it's nice and clean and organized. It has a girly theme which is cute. I can't wait for my next appointment in two weeks! read more

At Y2K Nails located on South Arroyo Parkway my friend and I got a detailed, careful nail trim, cuticle and callus pedicure with classic polish by nail technician Myna after a foot soak in a tub of warm water. Nail technicians Vicky & Jasmine removed our old polish, trimmed our finger nails, filed edges smooth, rubbed lotion on our hands/wrist ls. and finished with a basic polish color of our choice. The salon's interior is a clean white & pink with background music playing giving it a young, pop modern vibe . While waiting for the the polish to dry you can set the massage chair to work. The massage chairs are comfortable and have many settings for the user to select based on height, back area to massage, massage type action. At our 11 AM appointment time on a Tuesday, the small parking lot had only two spaces open and none when we left at 1 PM. The salon accepts payment by credit card or Venmo. read more

The woman who did my pedicure was very nice and it seemed like it was going to be a great pedicure as she did the trimming, filing, etc. Unfortunately, they accepted an appointment from me a little over an hour before closing, and so it felt very rushed. She didn't apply the polish all the way to the edges of my nails, and the layers were also pretty thick. My big toe also has a spot where the polish must've bubbled. I hate to leave a subpar review, but that was my experience unfortunately. read more

I'm sad to write this review because I actually wanted to like them. I might give them another try in the future but today's experience was frustrating. I made an appointment to come in at 2. I arrived at the shop around 1:50 and was seated immediately. The lady starts on my nails and within a few minutes, another client comes in. This new client requested for a dip manicure. Another nail tech took this client and got started. After a few minutes, my nail lady said she has to swap with the other nail lady because the other one doesn't know how to do dip mani. Okay, sure! This new nail lady starts on my nails. Meanwhile, another client walks in, and they told her to come back at 2:30. ANOTHER client comes in and says she also has a 2pm appointment for a pedi and gel mani. They ask her to sit down at the spa chair. At this point, it is very obvious that they are overbooked. 3 nail techs with 5 clients. The second lady who was doing my gel removal was so rough and was in such a rush. She also grabbed my stuff and asked to move me to a massage chair because they need more time. I'm now sitting on this chair and watched them start and finish other clients after me even though I got there before them. I was at the salon from 1:50 til about 3:40? My whole experience should have only been an hour.. 1.5 hours max. My nails came out okay. I couldn't ask for any more modifications because I needed to leave. The nail tech also cut my skin and I was bleeding. Anyway, please don't over book or please hire more experienced nail techs. read more

Love this place staff is so kind and welcoming always their nail services and pedicures are the best

Amazing nice neat and clean salon! Very friendly staff. :) loved my experience. They were very professional.

I showed Vicky a picture of a lavender cloud type of design and she really delivered. I got gel with design on bare nails, so no removal needed. What I really appreciated was the nail prep. I had really dry nails and some skin peeling on the side of my nail beds. It was looking a bit rough but she carefully cut the rough parts out and really smoothed it out. read more

Vicky is amazing!! Every single time. I'm very picky about my nails and she nails it (pun intended) consistently. I won't go anywhere else.

Absolutely in love!! This is my second time going to Y2K Nails, and after the first visit I knew I had found my "local nail place" and the second visit just reaffirmed it. I got my nails done by Jasmine, who is so kind, friendly, and really listens and executes your vision beautifully. These nails were for my baby shower, and she did such a wonderful job, including adding a bumblebee (completely her idea) to add to my garden theme! The business is clean, welcoming, replies quickly, and everyone is so polite. Positive experiences all around :) read more

I visited Y2K Nails hoping for a nice gel mani before vacation. Nina was friendly, but the experience wasn't ideal. I chose the salon based on sample images that showed attention to detail and clean design work, but that wasn't the case for me. I asked for a short almond shape, but was told my nails were too short, so we went with round. The shaping ended up rough and uneven, with little effort to match both hands. The nail prep also wasn't great. My cuticles look very dry, there's polish on my skin, and the edges aren't clean. The polka dots aren't consistent -- they vary in size, spacing, and some are even missing. I know nail art can be challenging, but she was doing them so quickly and immediately after asking me to check, she was already talking under her breath, so I felt uncomfortable after asking her to fix a few. Overall, it was an okay experience. But, I won't be returning or recommending the salon. read more
