LV Nails & Spa

i used to come here all the time until my friends nails kept breaking in the same spot. i noticed the owner sands the tip down in the middle of the nail & thats where they kept breaking at. sucks because we really liked this place & it is close to our house.

This place does not even deserve one star! To say the least he has his niece and nephew or son working for him under age and the little boy is not licensed prepping his clients putting nails on hella crooked he does not deserve to be in business! I will be going forward on reporting him for having the young kids working not licensed here! Save your money I should of went to my regular girl she is cheaper and way better!!! So my nails came out all wrong and I just couldn’t wait to leave to write this Unilocal on how horrible they are!

They did a pretty good job

I been going to this place for awhile now. I used to love it, but the service has downgraded. If I get a gel manicure it should last at least 2 weeks not a week or less. The lady was really rude to me just because I requested a different person. The owner is nice but I won’t be going back.

, I went to get my arm pits waxed I done this before so I went in asked I went to the back with the lady all she say was sit, I asked her if the hair was long enough she just looked at me, then she waxed once an started to pluck the hair, if I wanted that I would of just did that myself, I kept saying to her that hurts, she didn’t listen I then just started to get up she say I’m done but kept plucking, I told her that I didn’t want that, I came for a wax not the be tortured, she like OK OK sorry, I said again so the hair not long enough, she say yeah yeah its fine, umm? She say she was gonna wax the other side I say OK only wax she like OK, well she waxed like 6 times its so red and painful, I couldn’t believe she just kept going I will never go back, its not hard to just say the hair wasn’t long enough but no she just wanted to make money so she put me in pain and didn’t even get all the hair it looks like it did before I went in, now I can’t shave or even go somewhere else to wax till this heals, I should of just walked out but I didn’t want them making a seen since I had my child with me, but these people should at least talk to the people not just going for it,

Do NOT go here! I used to go here all the time until one day Lynn cut my cuticle back too far and I got an infection! My toe began to hurt and 4 days after my pedicure I went to the ER, thinking it was an ingrown toe nail. They said it was an infection from my cuticle being cut too far back, which made way for bacteria to get inside my toe! Stayed in the ER for 5 hours and was on antibiotics for 2 weeks.
The doctor said the tools being unclean may have also contributed to the bacterial infection! :(
Protect yourself & your loved ones by making sure you don’t go here!

Not happy at all with the service this time! I be got a pedicure by Lynn and it has been the worse by far I ever had. She hardly cut the cuticles didn’t ask me if I wanted to cut down didn’t even file the nails! Won’t return

Arrived at 11:30ish, with no customers in sight. One nail tech and she didn’t move when I walked in.
I said «good morning».
«What do you need?»
«I would like a mani/​pedi, please.»
She yells to the back multiple times to ask for someone. Finally a response after the 3^rd time. Ok, whatever. The tech didn’t really speak to me at all. Didn’t ask my name, made/​took 3 – 4 calls. And she spends just over an hour on both services, seems kind of short to me since I had 2 extra services on the pedi. The leg massage was ok. She doesn’t put anything between my toes for the polish (and I have a few toe nails that touch the next toe). They take three customers in and all of the sudden, she’s in a big rush, because they told those three that there was no wait. Ask for no polish on the fingers. She does a half-​ass job on the mani and MAYBE a 20 – 30 second rub on each arm. Why should I suffer because you didn’t manage your time properly? Not happy with the customer service or the end result.

LOVE this place! They remember me every time and never disappoint with their service!

Very clean first of all! Some places in this area are so dirty. I had given up on nail places here in El Cajon, until I tried LV nails. They are professional and not pushy. The owners and workers there have a nice welcoming attitude, you can tell they care about keeping the place spotless. The prices are very reasonable and they are fast. Also, they have good quality products.

This place is great. I was just ordering some food next door. I saw that they were having a special 10% off on tues-​thurs and i fugure i try it. this place is clean and great workers. customer service is number one key and they have it. I enjoyed my pedi was very relaxing. thanks tracy you were great! i will be back.

I called in to make an appointment. I was told to come in at 11– thought it was wierd that he scheduled an appointment and didn’t ask my name. Turns out they had their young teenage son answering the phone. Before leaving I chatted with the woman next to me– apparently she also had an 11 appointment (even though there were 5 seats full and 2 people ahead of us waiting). Bad business practice. I guess I’ll never find out if they do good nails or not.

I am as picky as they come about my nails and eyebrows, seriously i am OCD. I could care less if the nail tech is friendly as long as my nails look perfect. I dont care if i feel at home blah blah… I want perfect, flattering nails and eyebrows! I tried this place 2 weeks ago, told them 1 time (the owners) and not only did they do it exactly, they remembered and did it again today without a word! I haven’t been so happy with my nails in forever! Now as a bonus they are some of the nicest people! I actually wanted to talk to them instead of drone on my phone while there!!! Nothing but good things to say for this shop!

After 5 years of disatisfaction with nail spas, I went with the reviews on this nail spa and glad I did. The place is clean, the people are friendly (speak english) and reasonable prices… no, great prices. The owner Kevin did my gel nails and I couldn’t be more satisfied. He was gentle, DIDN’T use the dremel tool (I have thin nail beds) and does a nice arm and hand massage with lotion when he’s done.
I had the same service 1.5 weeks ago at a salon next to Walmert off Los Coches Rd. The polish peeled off right away and they were rude and nasty. Needless to say I’ll be going back to LV!!!

I had a great experience here. My nails look fabulous. The amount of effort and time that went into my pedicure was well worth the 45 dollars I spent for gel manicure and spa pedicure with callus removal. I will definitely be back!

My first time here and my first time getting a shellac manicure, love how they turned out. The ladies were really nice and new what they were doing and weren’t to rough or to gun ho with the cuticle cutter… lol. for my french tip shellac mani and spa french tip pedi it was $ 55

I go there for Kevin the owner. I had my nails done by another lady once and he had to redo them 48 hours later. He is GREAT. It’s true that the way they write their price could be confusing. Double check with them first to make sure you got it right. The whole gel thing threw me off too. But over all, I like it. The price are indeed very competitive.

This place is great. The employees are friendly, and extremely helpful. Cindy did my nails today, It only cost $ 22 for a Shellac Manicure. Cindy was more that helpful, I picked out a light color and after she did my first nail she was more than happy to change the color darker because she could tell I didn’t like it. The price is great, my nails look great, and I walked out of there happy. If you want to try a new place to get your nails done, you should definitely stop in.

I don’t know what the previous reviewer is talking about. I LOVE this place. The workers are always friendly, especially the owners. They keep you talking and entertained but they aren’t the usual gossipers. I come here once a week to get my nails done and I love it! I think Hannah was mistaken because yes, the Shellac Gel is $ 14.99 but that’s without the manicure. So if you just wanted your nails painted you would have paid that price. They are still very decently priced compared to many other places. I get my Shellac MANICURES done for $ 22 whereas in my neighborhood they charge upwards of $ 45. I don’t live close to here but I ALWAYS make the drive down for the people and the wonderful job they always deliver. They also have a weekday special where you get 30% off between Tuesday and Thursday with an appointment.

We were stopping for dinner next door when we saw the banner outside that said GRAND OPENING. There were special prices for all services & they were great 13.99 spa pedi, 12.99 mani, 15.99 full set, 14.99 shellac GEL and more. We went in & they took us right away.
They do not have a large color selection, the lady that was doing my mani got half way done & the man working in the salon came over to look & realized she was using regular nail polish. They had to take it all off & start all over & then he started to tell the lady doing my nails how to do a shellac mani.
To top all of that off they charged us 48.00 for a 13.99 pedi with 2 designs which were 5 $ extra & charged me $ 23.00 for my mani because they used gel. The banner says GEL SHELLAC 14.99, and they never told me anything about that before they started. They ripped us off & will the same to anyone who walks through the door.
