Ava Nails

Its an ok place

I gave this place 2 stars only because the employees were friendly. But thats the only reason. I got a full set. And I hate the shape of them. They dont fit my nails. Much larger then they are suppost to be. I told her and she said she would file them down to right size. As she was applying the acrylic. It was just dripping of my fingers. I have never seen that ever happen. And as she finished with all the filing. I told her not to paint them. Because I knew I was gonna have to shape them myself. When I left I realized how terrible they were done. Not only do they look way to big. They arent even on my nails correctly. The tips are not even on the tips. They are glued on the mid point of the nail. And glue upwards were you can see my nail up to that point. Which is BAD BAD BAD. Eveything will get trapped under them. I WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. I SPENT OVER AN HOUR TODAY TRYING TO FIX THEM. LOOKS LIKE IM GONNA HAVE TO TAKE THEM OFF. SO THATS $ 30 OUT THE WINDOW

I used to go to Ava’s a lot (4−5yrs ago) and can’t say I ever recall a problem. I moved and started going to Exotic Nail in La Mirada, but today since I was in the area, I cheated and went to Ava. Long story short, I went against my better judgement. My sister told me the last couple times she’d gone that they were really rough on her nails. I should have listened. My big toe is still very tender from my pedicure today and I should have spoken up when I felt the woman really digging in. I took it as she was being very thorough, and maybe she saw something that needed to be removed and clipped away. I’m regretting it, and will never stray again from Exotic Nail. Ava is nice inside, the color selection is GREAT, but just too tough on my tootsies. Sorry Ava.

I really enjoy this place! I have been to Nanci twice already and has done a great job both times. She takes her time doing my manicure and makes sure the color looks great.
I have always been skeptical about gel color because of previous experiences, she convinced me to try it again and I did and was not disappointed! And for $ 25 for French tip gel, not bad at all! I’m overdue for another visit so I will be seeing her again soon.

This place is OK. Been here twice and didn’t have to wait long. The price is right, and it’s close to my office, so no complaints here.

I have to say, I was a it disappointment. $ 25 is not the most expensive, but I expected more than I got. Their selection of polish is not great… meaning only a couple OPI colors, the Color selection is small, and the quality was thin. I had to ask for a base coat. I was expecting more massage on my full lower leg, and arm… NOPE. I had to ask for the massage chair to be turned on. She used plenty of oil but after she sprayed the alcohol on my hands and feet she wiped them off with the oily towel… Every time I go by there, they have no business. WARNING SIGN. So, it is no surprise when I tell you that after she painted and did not clean up the over paint on my fingers, though minimal, and the top coat BUBBLED. I pointed that out and neither one of them cared enough to say «sorry, I will redo, discount, You are right, we will throw it out…» NOTHING. THEY REALLY DON’T CARE HERE!!!

I’ve been going here for two + years. The place is clean and since I am somewhat of a regular i’m treated like a queen.
i’ve had some toe surgeries and being diabetic, i have to be really careful about what is done to me. I have shared my concerns and my needs and they really look out for me. they take their time and give me and my friend (a guy) a really great service.
prices are reasonable too.

I have not had my nails done here, but I have had them do a nail design for me. I think the lady who did my nails has a steady hand and the lines all look nice and clean. She also had many different colors besides the standard white, black, gold and silver. I will return to try a fill and to get my nails designed :)
