Top Reviews about 19 Nail Salons in Long Beach, CA

dawn wilson Very friendly and makes you feel special I go faithfully every 2 weeks for mani/ pedi My nails always look fantastic! Highly recommend going here!

alexxxmr I came across this salon while walking by and was greeted very kindly by everyone! I received a dip powder manicure and gel pedicure and loved the whole process. They were quick but efficient and everything looked clean. This salon is now my go to! Definitely coming back. Thank you for your wonderful service!

Brenda Lopez I stopped here a few days ago and was skeptical being that it’s a new salon and I am extremely picky with my nails and service. As soon as I walked in I was immediately greeted by Mary and her team. She told me not to worry and trust her. And so I did and OMG I loved my nails & the service! They served me the best Vietnamese coffee, offered me chips, water, soda you name it! And yes, the chairs for pedicures do give massages. Mary did my full set and listened to everything I asked for. This is for sure my new spot! :)

Lana M I went to Los Angeles during my vacation and came across this place. I never would have thought it would turn out this good. The lady, whose name I cannot recall was extremely nice and gentle with me. She completely understood what I wanted and how I wanted it. Definitely recommend !

mary monte This location is the Excellent choice: amicable staff, calm & collective atmosphere. I truly appreciate the attention to detail that Hellen provides. Shes a sweetheart & creative, to say the least. Was my 1st visit ever, & I dont mean to sensitive nor picky, in Fact- just more the reason 2b grateful that staff was patient with my needs. #LoveMyNails

Alma Arias I believe her name was Honey, and she did such an amazing job on my nails! I called ahead to make sure there wasn’t a wait and she told me there wasn’t at that moment but then was kind enough to call me back to let me know that the wait would be a bit longer and that I can come at a later time if I wanted. I decided to make an appointment with her and she did an amazing job and replicated the reference picture I showed her perfectly and redid it when she wasn’t satisfied. I will definitely come back!

Tracy Chock Meas My older sister recommended me this spot and I started going ever since. I loved how Tracy (nail tech) took care of me. She is the sweetest. All the workers were nice and friendly. Definitely 5 star. (make sure you set an appointment or youll be waiting for a long time)

Alex Over priced for kids. Lady did a design on my daughters nails and didnt even bother to ask first and charged me extra after. Imagine if I didnt have the complete amount. Then when I asked for the total and complained to them they gave me attitude. First and last time coming here. Only reason I came here was because we were in this area. Dont even bother coming here. Going back to our original place where they have good customer service and dont over price.

Kyndra Peterson I absolutely love this place!! All the ladies are so nice and welcoming. I want to express special appreciation for Vivian and Linda. Vivian always does my pedicures and she is gentle, thorough, and pays attention to detail. She’s also so wonderfully creative that I feel confident in letting her surprise me sometimes with the nail color and design. I trust her completely. I also recently got my first manicure done by Vivian and I am stunned! Just absolutely beautiful nails and as always, a wonderful time with Vivian! When my boyfriend comes with, he gets his pedicure done with Linda and she always does a great job! She is also very gentle, detailed oriented, and gives a perfect leg massage. Forever grateful for these ladies!

Amanda Kincaid Love everything about this place! if you want fancy detailed nails, this is the place to go. Just keep in mind they do not service manicures and pedicures at the same time. Out of cleanliness and not making technicians maneuver in weird ways. Which I totally respect.

Jackie Mountcastle Wonderful salon. Really pretty and relaxing vibe on the inside. Love the complimentary wine! All the staff are friendly and very skilled. It was my first time at Euca and my first time getting Gel-x nails. Helen did an amazing job. She was very patient with my questions and had such a great attention to detail. My nails look incredible and they looked exactly like my inspo pictures. I’ve had them for 3 weeks and they still look great! My only complaint is that the online menu of services is confusing. I didn’t clearly understand the prices of things until I was done with my appointment and paying. I knew what I had requested would be a bit more than the base price and I was happy to pay it. It just would have been nice to know upfront at the time of booking the appointment.

Her Financial Plan Relaxing, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. I made a same-day appointment for myself and grandma. I was seen right away for my pedicure, my grandma waited a few minutes for her gel-manicure. I also got full-set with design. We did not feel rushed at all, i feel like the team takes their time and i love their appointment system. My grandma felt comfortable and said the team was very nice so she wants to come back. I suggest bringing a magazine in case you end up waiting longer and dont want to drain your phone charge.

Cynthia Jones Bell Ive been going here a long time. I only get pedicures. The owner and her husband are very nice and personable. They always did a really nice job on my toes. And we got a nice little calf massage as an added bonus. Since pandemic, no more calf massage and prices have gone up. Why cut out the calf massage? I loved that part.

Mirian Amaya I took my self and my girls ,honestly I felt ok in the beginning then just felt awkward,just cause I didnt want extra stuff ,they were pushy about everything, overpriced,and I think they tipped themselves ...wont be coming back here sorry not sorry

charlaine bevans I let Rose do my gel mani & pedi, keep in mind no acrylic nails my natural nails she nicked my feet several times, my polish chipped tdy i just got them done yesterday, im sick of these nail shops taking my money using old polish & do BS services!! So now i have to go back & inconvenience myself to have them fix their raggedy work!! Theres no pride in work anymore, people only out for the $$$$$ no pride no quality!!!

Tiffany Allegretti Love my new powder manicure from Tracy! My nails are growing and so strong. I have been coming to Go Go Nails for years and just switched over to powder from gel. They are durable and look great for weeks. Thank you Tracy!

Sophie Epenesa Love my girls @ Gogo nails Tracy gets it done very loving great conversation great vibe friendly and gets it done even my husband gets his pedicure and manicure done!

Cristina Suarez Moon did an amazing job on my pedicure. She is very gentle and sweet. The massages are the best. They always do any amazing job every time I come.

Bree Acosta This nail salon has a place near and dear to my heart. It is family owned and all of the technicians call all customers by their first name. I have stuck with Christine for full set and fills. You can also make appointments. You will not be disappointed in any service you receive! Absolutely adore this gem of a place in LB!

Dodo First time to try this salon to do hard/builder gel nails and my experience was very bad. The girl who did my nails kept cutting my cuticle to the degree that my fingers looked red, inflammed, and bleeded a lot. Also at the end, my nails looked chunky and not natural at all. It would look better if I do them at home. Waste of money. Will not try this place again. Do not recommend.

CeCe Teneal I called last week to make an appointment because I knew I’d only be in port for a few hours. They accommodated me by letting me come early - even before they opened. When I take a trip to the nail salon, THIS is the treatment that I love… I was immediately greeted upon entry and asked if I wanted water, wine, or snacks. Christine massaged my arms after completing my nails and my forehead after the eyebrow wax. She was so patient with me and very careful. My pedicure was fantastic and I upgraded to the top package that they offered. Will definitely return when I am in time. ❤️ They nailed it! P.S. I will tell you to make sure you know what you’re being charged for as they add services.

Erik Magana My girlfriend loves her nails, the guy who did them is named Lee. Great price will be coming back

Arnetta Harvell Im happy with my full set and pedicure. 1st time going service was good. The Ladies who did my feet and nails .( I forgot theyre names) I think Mylee and Susan Good job! I will be back.

Jocelyn Kay I like this place! I came here and got my nails done and was probably 9/10 satisfied. The only reason I won’t say 10/10 was because I didn’t exactly get the shape I asked for but I also didn’t exactly make her fix it (I’m shy). The shape I got was still cute just more square then coffin. But the nails held up really nice for two weeks. Came back for a fill today and had her adjust the shape and got some new color. They look great :)

Claudia Lopez Please book with Yvonne! She’s the absolute best! 11/10 experience! Definitely coming back! So meticulous with her work!

Marcie Ramos My husband brought me here looks beautiful modern clean neat loved it the first time Jennifer took care of us amazing Then I went on a Tuesday for my fills and a Younger girl came to do my fills well started too .. she was rough with my nails hurt my finger as she’s file ing to remove my gel. I see no more gel and she’s continuing I said ok she’s going to redo and put more gel my nails were oval NOT pointy as she’s file ing them so she’s done and I said I like my nails thick and u filed this nail more than what u we’re supposed too it looked thinner than the other nail and really pointy looks really different from my other hand right away she started talking in her language which I feel that is so rude speak English so I can understand what u are saying . I’m telling her my nail wasn’t like that she’s going over what I’m saying and walked away so I’m showing the nice owner and he put Lana omg she did a beautiful job wasn’t uptight or rude very humble and fixed the error the younger girl with the over sized hot pink shoes made that’s what stood out I had never in my 45 years experienced someone so unprofessional while doing my nails then she lied to the owner about what she did to my nail I’ve done my nails many!!!!!! Many years I know what removing gel and file ing is…. I was very pleased with LANA”s knowledge very impressive thank u Lana loved my nails

Rita VG López Each time I have had services - 3 times, done here, the receptionist (owner?) and nail tech attempt to upsell services I dont want; specifically pedicures and gel nails. Also, when I have expressed that the company I work for has certain standards for nail looks, Ive had to show pictures for my request to be respected. Finally, the last time I went the nail tech was quite rude. As she was struggling to remove a couple of the acrylic nails, I suggested that soaking my nails in acetone would ease the task. She furrowed her brow and stated you dont need to tell me, I have been doing this a long time. She then stated something to the receptionist (owner?) in their home language.

Egypt Hemby Always a fantastic experience at Star Nails!! The staff is always so welcoming, kind, up to date with techniques and very thorough with their creative processes. I’ve been coming here for years with my mum to see Helen; the owner, and her incredible staff shine! You won’t be disappointed! Definitely check them out! :) They’re open Monday-Saturday!

Andrea Suarez Great Customer Service! I took my mother whom is in a nearby rehab to get a pedicure, the staff helped me transfer her to the spa machine and back into her wheelchair! They made sure my mother was comfortable and wish her a speedy recovery! I cannot recommend this place enough! Friendly staff, clean tools, exceptional hospitality! Will definitely be going back!

Betty Guzman One of my favorite nails salons in Long Beach! All the nail technicians are great! I love chrome and they have a large selection of chrome products. Highly recommend!

Nhi Got my nails and lashes done here by Delilah and she did an amazing job! She is truly an artist and all I had to do was show her a photo of what I wanted and she did the rest. The final result came out better than the picture I showed her. I can’t keep staring at my nails and have gotten so many compliments. Will surely be back!

Andrea Casella I hadn’t been back to Nails by Vicky in a long time. I was just so happy to see they reopened and that I will be seeing some familiar faces Vicky, Delilah, and of course, Vincent. I had a special experience getting a pedicure. Great detail given to the pedicure plus wonderful conversation and a lively warm feeling just being in the presence of these people. I will continue to always go back to Nails by Vicky. Everyone should try them and Vicky herself does amazing creative manicures. Just check out her pictures. Love the atmosphere and appreciate that they offer many other services, which will I will continue to try. Check out the website.

HD Beauty Bar I love this place so much! Their service and work is exceptional!! They are so into their beautiful work that I can feel really safe when I do any service here, especially when it comes to nail design, lashes and brows Lamination as well as facial! The vibe is relaxing and calm, I feel like a VIP here because they only book with appointment! Highly recommended

Brown Jenny First time getting my nails done here! Thought I would give them a shot!seeing that its a hole in the wall? I kind of already knew... when I got there woman was by herself did it okay job then next thing you know a week later my nails start lifting. went in to ask them can you fix for free? give you nothing but attitude not very friendly I advise you not to go there.

Jasmin Waiting forever, took other people before me, lost me as client

Rebecca Bradley I love my nails! They were friendly, fast and I wish they were back in mh home town! (Im on a work trip).

Anita Natalia I had such great experience with Bryan and Helen! Bryan did all my nail design with patience and he is very detail oriented. Would definitely come back :)

Kathy Nguyen Tina is AMAZING!! I’ve been going to her for over 10 years now and I have yet to find someone with such mastery in the craft. I love getting manicures with her since my nails always come out so clean and perfect after. I also get my eyebrows waxed as she makes the process so smooth and painless. I always leave the salon with my nails and eyebrows on fleek! Love the atmosphere as well, it’s a very lively, spacious, and friendly atmosphere.

Bimbola Omisile I’ve been coming here for over 10 years and they always do a great job. They have free soda and snacks and even give you 10% off if you pay cash. I get the deluxe spa pedicure from Tina every time and it never disappoints and lasts very long.

Kim Ngo Fantastic nail salon! Not only will your nails be perfectly manicured, massaged and cleaned but I have made friends with the customers and have had the best conversations with the nail techs. The owner provides a great customer service, offering water, Vietnamese iced coffee and charm. They also have the cutest kids’ spa chairs for a special occasion. Come here for your biweekly spa day!

Paola Lazcano This is my second time going back, love the service and how cute my nails come out. Very hospitable environment.

Phi Lanina Got my nails almost four weeks ago- gel french tips- and they are still in tact throughout a multi country trip in Asia! The owner also gave me sweet lunar new year treats while i was there and the girl who did my nails was meticulous and checked with me to make sure the french tip was a length i liked

Amy Conway I wanted to love this place as much as everyone else. The woman that gave me my pedi did an excellent job. However, the woman who did my nails rushed, didnt you cuticle cream, my nail corners were not filed smoothy and did a very poor job of applying the gel, it was uneven, had some bubbles, abd was on my cuticles. I complained only to have it "fixed" to the same status. Then my I went for my bikini wax! The curtains had gaps open to the salon, employees were walking in and out for supplies being exposed to customers. Then then a wax was applied abd the woman was pulling it off bit by bit. It was extremely painful. I kept telling her to STOP and pushing her hands away. She then pushed my hands away telling me to let her finish. She was not using the proper wax. I had to tell her what to do. I had to tell her to use powder, and to change thr wax and use strips. The then said "oh easier". Im burnt and missing some skin. Oh, by the end of the day my gel nails are flaking off. A waste of $155.00

Darrell Rodriquez Mindy is a very good nail technician with gel-x services. She always pays attention to every detail and enthusiastically advises me on suitable nail designs. The salon always offers water when customers enter, creating a feeling of care and comfort.

Lark Masluk Lovely mani-pedi experience, and I chose the most simple option for both. Needed a natural look to go with my Galadriel costume for a Halloween party, and very happy with the outcome. Same color for toes and fingers - I believe it looks like a warmer pink on my toes because the skin is more pale, but I did get gel for the fingers and regular for the toes so maybe that made a difference? I think the color was 058, in case that helps anyone :)

Sonja Nichols This place was awesome! We had 6 of us for a mix of Manis and pedicures and all the ladies were amazing! Everyone left happy and relaxed! Kim did my nails and she did a wonderful job at giving me cute nails for my vacation. Wish this place was in Utah so I could be a regular.

Melissa Ramirez Ive now been going to Lavender Nails for quite some time now and the customer service and quality of the mail work has always been consistent. Im always happy to come here, as you feel like its your neighborhood friendly bar/pub where everyone knows your name and you can just relax & unwind. I love that Kim always helps me select the right colors for my hands and feet, she knows exactly what I am in the mood for that day. I see that there have been recent reviews of folks complaining about the pricing. Well, you get what you pay for and if you want quality nail work , it will cost more to have your nails done with expertise precision, skill and care. Please do your yourself a favor and swing by Lavender Nails for all of your manicure/pedicure needs!

Dorothy Generous Wow! Just amazing!! They are absolutely the sweetest women I have ever met! The service was phenomenal. The level of detail and care, didn’t feel rushed. Prices are average to what I pay back home. Thank you Nani and Hana for a great experience!

Qiana Brown I got my nails done here for the first time and was very disappointed. My nails were shaped wrong and were falling off by the next day. I came back that week to get them fixed and they asked me who did my nails and when I told them they proceeded to laugh. The manager was rude and also upset but she fixed my nails and they did look way better than when the First Lady did them which I did appreciate. I also saw the manager did steps that the First Lady did not do. The energy was very off and they made me wait a long time even though I made an appointment. I don’t plan to ever go back and I don’t recommend this place for black people either because I do believe they are racist.

kristi robbins Always friendly and professional. All of the gals are so sweet and listen to what you want. Great prices and always satisfied when I leave . Highly recommend. Kathy and Lynn 5 STARS!

N RACIST! DO BUSINESS ELSEWHERE! I got into a car accident at the Ximeno/Atherton intersection and the person that hit me was a white woman in a Tesla. The women of the nail salon inserted themselves into my business while I was CALMLY and POLITELY asking the white woman for her license and insurance (all on video) and hid her from me inside of their salon because she refused to give me her information. They did this because shes white and Im a brown person of color. They were pointing and laughing while doing it as well.

Corinne Ingalla Christine is great! Her attention to detail is wonderful. My nails can go 3–4 weeks without any breakage. She just called work! I got these nails done for a wedding I’m in. She’s a sweetest! Got my toes does by LeeLee. Great work! She gives an awesome leg and foot massage.

Katie Hafkenscheid I have been coming for a few years. Mai & Lily are my go to’s. Instead of weekly fills or fix, i can go 2-3 weeks before needing a fill. Very happy with the service. Friendly employees as well.

Lindsay Guillon Several generations of women in my family have gone to this nail salon. Always friendly faces working and great value for the price paid. I usually get a gel mani and paraffin wax pedicure, but they have many other options available, and waxing too. Highly recommend making an appointment for multiple people visiting together.

Patrice Sandhu Did a brilliant job! Was finally able to get the right shape and length that I wanted. Tina did my nails; did not get the name of the lady who did my pedicure but they both look great! Also the massage was very nice - I am a tense/stiff person and felt super relaxed afterwards.

Tham Lang They are great work all nails technic, take good care customers.they’re friendly

Rachael Graham Tina did my nails and they look amazing!!! The prices are unbeat. Especially in Cali. She did them so fast AND with high quality. Will be back!
