Diamond Nails Spa & Tanning

I visit this place very often, I like how they provide service. They are very professional and always remember my preferences, I’m appreciated.

Absolutely terrible.
First off, I only came here because this place is within walking distance to my house and I was in a time crunch.
I showed my nail technician a picture of the shape I wanted for my nails. When she started cutting them, I expressed to her I thought she cut them way too short (I have long fingers so I prefer longer nails) She argued with me saying they would look fine in the end.
I let her continue because I knew there was no way to fix it fast and I really had to be somewhere after my appointment.
When she was finished, she asked me if I liked them. I said «honestly, they are way too short for my liking and look nothing like the picture I showed you» she continued to disagree with me and eventually just walked away as I was talking.
On my way out, I told the lady that was doing nails at the front (assuming she was the owner or manager) about how I really wasn’t content with my nail shape at all. I showed her the picture and she went on to say that my nails could never achieve that shape because of my nail beds. Funny, because I get my nails done this shape all the time. Both of them were super aggressive and extremely rude. I tried calling and asking for the owner but the lady that answered the phone says she «wasn’t available».
I’ve never been treated so horribly at a nail salon.
Such a shame especially because they are right next to my house. Spend your money somewhere else.

Matt black gel manicure done by Eddie. He is super talented and I will definitely come back. He was gentle and did a very good job. First time I did my nails in LA and I can recommend everyone to come here.

Torn on what to rate this because Tracy is awesome, but the place is so dirty. Seriously, do they ever clean this place? There is accumulated dirt and grime on the walls and floorboards and dust everywhere. The only reason I keep coming back to this dirty dump is because Tracy does such an excellent job on my fills.

Ive been coming here for years and have always been happy with my nails. Theyre very friendly, the place is clean, and the prices are reasonable.

LOVED IT! I got recommended to to this place by my friend and I couldn’t be happier! I went in and it wasn’t busy so I got out pretty quickly. My nails look fabulous! I definitely found a place I like after a year of searching. They are extremely sweet and get the job done quickly! Will be going back each month!!!

This place is consistently the worst. And I keep coming here like an idiot when I don’t have a lot of time because it’s close to home.
They have no clue how to shape, tried to send me off with thick ass acrylics, basically just dipped my fingers in the top coat and weren’t going to clean it because it’s clear. and what’s worse. They can’t take direction. Don’t give me an attitude because I ask you to re-​do something or shape it differently. This is literally what I’m paying you for.
Rude rude rude.
The two guys are ok. Pedicures are less risky.

Quiet environment compared to most around here. Always quick wait when I walk inane doesn’t lie to me about wait time when I call. Does my fill phenomenal and never acts annoyed that I have my phone. Love it :)

This place plain sucks!!! The people are rude and it’s not very clean. So the real kicker was when first when they cut me with the cuticle clippers then my friend followed and lastly her mother.
3 people got nicked in one visit!
You think after that they would have painted our nails well but they did not and no discount. What a dump!

Very happy with the gel removal and pedicure I got today. Reasonably priced ($ 20 for pedicure, $ 3 for gel removal) and friendly staff. Was taken care of straight away plus they fixed my polish when I smudged it on my way out! Overall recommend.

Last time I was here–
Nail Tech: «ugh, you want callous remover»
Me: «yes, always»
Nail Tech: «oh no, you don’t need, and I’m so lazy»
Me:
Today: We’ve been sitting here now for 15 minutes, no one has even looked our way. I asked someone if we could at least get some water going to soak in. I’m told, «No. We don’t like when you soak too long.»
*walks off*
Last straw.
If didn’t need a mani pedi in the worst way right now, I’d leave.
Sucks because they are walking distance from home and work.
One star for location.

The only reason I went to this place was because it was walking distance from my house. I just did a walk in, in the middle of afternoon. I had to wait 5 minutes for anyone to say hello or acknowledge me. Once they did they still wouldn’t tell me how long my wait was going to be. Once I started talking to other patrons asking them how long were they waiting, they finally showed up with trays to help me. The prices in my opinion were way too expensive $ 15 for a manicure and $ 2 for a top coat. The nail polish only stay on for less than a week. There is no ambiance and décor in this place. The unfriendly staff, quality of the nail polish even with a top coat and atmosphere is not worth the price.

Quality of mani/​pedi here is good. Prices are pretty over the top, though. I guess because they figure that because they’re in central Hollywood, they can gouge the tourists and hope locals like me will wander in and pay their high fees? I got a pedi with a big toe design in regular nail polish and just a buff (no polish) manicure, and it was $ 41 before tip.
It’s on the second floor, and the ambiance is «whatever.» They were playing basketball on TV (??). I asked for a design on my big toe and they said yeah ok, $ 5. And then someone else had to do it because my lady didn’t know how, I guess.
Then they just said ok have a good one, and I was like umm, I have to pay? And then I had to wait to pay. Silly.

I adore Tracy! I’ve been coming here for years, but every once in awhile I have to go somewhere else due to traveling. It’s during those times, when my nails fall apart and break… That I TRULY miss this place.
I recently had to go to NYC for work, and while I was there I had to get a fill. It’s been less then two weeks and I have 2 broken nails. About 4 days ago, the nails were beginning to lift. I bought some nail glue hoping to salvage my nails till I could get back here… But as fate would have it… Two broken nails and three chipped.
This NEVER happens when Tracy does my nails! NEVER.
Seriously give this place a try, it’s 9:15am and I’m counting the minutes till they open their doors.
Best Nail Place ever.
Lynn and Andy are also amazing, but Tracy’s who I use on the regular! Love her! Plus she’s hilarious, warm, genuine, honest about color choice, and fast!

Me: please don’t use that, it really irritates my skin.
Her: no, you’re fine. Trust me.
Me: no, please don’t!
She puts it on. I try to pull away but the damage had been done. My skin is bright red and burning.
Thanks a lot.

LOVE Tracy! She’s my go to girl for my one of a kind «duck» nails! This is the only place I’ve found that has the dark pink powder for my lovely pink and whites! Grrrr… the staff is usually quick and efficient. I will say this place gets pretty busy so make sure to make an appointment ahead of time, especially if booking on a Saturday. My only complaint is the pedicures. They are super quick! They don’t spend much time massaging your feet which is a bummer! The parking lot is usually super busy so keep in mind there’s also metered parking on the residential streets beside it and there’s a parking garage on El Cerritos (right across the street).

Before I decided to write a review I had visited this place for almost 6 months. I have finally found THE place to go. I have selected the girl (Hong)that I used for both medi and pedi. I only go to her because she is super good and speaks English :)
This place is very clean and nicely designed. Also I like the fact that they do so many services and for reasonable prices. To make the story short this is a nice place and Unilocalers can go there for sure

Let me start off by saying this place ended up doing my nails TERRIBLY the first time, BUT they manager was nice enough to have a different lady re-​do my nails for free.
I went in to get a gel mani and pedi since I was going out of town for a wedding. The lady doing my toes did a great job, but the lady doing my French gel mani was painting the white tip on so thick. It was super crooked and she tried painting on the tip in a way where she wouldn’t have to shape it/​clean it up with a brush like they normally do. When the gel dried it was bubbly and looked chunky — so the manager said to come back and she’d fix it.
When I came back a lady named Sam did my nails and I got a glitter ombré gel done instead. It looked great! My initial trip was a headache, but I appreciated the fact that they re-​did my nails for free.

Well, disappointed as I am. I HATE to resort to writing negative feedback about a service I paid for.
Diamond Nails is HIT or MISS.
Unfortunately.
My earlier review was 5-​Stars, but I have to take that back based on how today went.
If I have to re-​file MY OWN NAILS — even after tipping my manicurist $ 4 for a shitty job, this is a problem because clearly I am being TOO generous to even rate them a «3.» Don’t get me wrong, my pedicurest was AH-​MAZING. If I ever come back, I will ONLY request her (if only I would have got her name!) :(
Honestly, I wanted to snatch back my entire $ 8 tip for both girls and give it ALL to the pedicurest. Bad work doesn’t deserve generosity. The manicurist was so disappointing. Nice lady, don’t get me wrong but maybe she is a bit blind or something because I am not sure how someone can completely change the original shape of my nails (which looked perfect when I came in today) and change them to an awkward round and uneven shape that doesn’t suit me at all. She just did what she wanted and that’s not cool. She filed my natural nails down super short (when I came in they were long and looked like acrylics) I am just so irritated to have had to deal with that. I don’t think anyone should to be honest.
I will attach a photo of my crappy manicure so you can see you can see how bad it actually looks to know I am not exaggerating. And YES, I had to reshape my own nails MYSELF, after she was finished, and prior to polishing them. Also, I did express my dissatisfaction with how poor of a job she did shaping them. Then she went on to paint them horribly. And got polish all over the top of my hands and underneath in the palms of my hands and I had to ask her twice to remove it.
Sorry Diamond Nails, but I will have to take my business elsewhere. Manicurists need to pay closer attention to detail and make sure you do a perfect job in the future. This shit is IMPORTANT to a paying customer. We work super hard for our money and don’t like to feel like we wasted it on a crappy service that is supposed to make us leave feeling HAPPY.

$ 33 for a mani & pedi. Wheelchair accessible. I called a few other places which said they were wheelchair accessible online, and over the phone they stated thet were not wheelchair accessible. Some places did not understand the word «wheelchair». Diamond Nail spoke great English compared to others. Across several salon chairs we all spoke like a group of friends, even though none of us had ever met. I not only got a great mani/​pedi at a great price… I also had a great time!!!
Note: elevator is small. I have a small Colours brand manual chair. I barely fit in the bathroom, so most chairs probably won’t fit. Otherwise inside is quite spacious. When they do a pedi at the manicure station, the hall is blocked, but you can go around the other way to get through.
