L A Nails

I’ve gone here 2 times now, once for gel and once for manicure. These ladies are so nice and detailed! Each time my nails came out perfect :) no infections or whatnot that other people reported. They used sanitized tools and rubbing alcohol when they did my nails. I’m also very thankful that they let me come in right before they closed and stayed a bit extra to wait for my nails to dry. I can’t wait to go again!

It is my second time here after I moved to this community. The polish last long! My first nail polish lasted for at least a week before I removed it. And staff here are nice. I will come back again.

They’re awesome! They take their time and do your nails perfectly. I got a pedicure and shellac manicure done. My manicure actually lasted through my extensive cooking over the weekend (usually if i end up cooking, it starts peeling off). They took that little extra effort to make sure there is no polish on the skin, and everything looks great.
They also throw in a small shoulder massage with your manicure. There is enough staff that 3 – 4 people can be serviced simultaneously which is great considering that the place is small.
Don’t get fooled by its appearance though — its a small shop on Pike St. and doesn’t look much from the outside.
They are reasonably priced as well. I will definitely be going here again — possibly my regular nail salon.

I’m picky when it comes to nail salons. Cleanliness is extremely important to me and attention to detail. I came in for shellac. I was watching a pedi while getting my nails done and it just looked so luxurious it lured me in. I got a deluxe pedi with the paraffin instead of the mask. It was fantastic. I could’ve fallen asleep. The shop is very clean and I didn’t feel like I was dropping my feet into a bacteria ridden bowl. I will return. The girls are extremely friendly and actually don’t look like they hate where they work. So glad I checked this place out.

The best. So friendly. Welcoming. The do the best pedis. Totally worth the money. My feet are soft for days. They really take care of you. They remember your face after a few times.

This is easily my favorite nail salon on the hill. My manicure always lasts, it’s cute, and I like that they have several levels of service. Oh – and they ALWAYS fit me in, no matter how busy they are, unlike other nail places in the area.

GO FOR: MANI & PEDI
No frills salon that gets the job done. New staff members are pleasant and personable. Mani/​Pedi is $ 40…possibly the only thing more expensive in Seattle than in NYC. Who knew?
Last trip, I decided to add some glam and went for stiletto nails (yes, yes I took it back to the days of acrylics). Not my normal speed but great way to change it up and allows for lots of cute nail design.

I’m sad to write this review, as I’d been coming here for quite some time now. It seems that the stand-​by manicurists still do a great job but the newer ones don’t take as much care. Being such, I got knicked a few times. Big deal right?
Well, I got a pretty bad infection on both my middle finger and thumb. I’ve been dealing with it for multiple months now, and its still pretty gross. Pus, black spots and peeling of the skin to say no more… and is nauseating to look at for me, I’m sure for anyone else if they saw. Needing to wear band-​aids while recovering from treatments, which may now result in a surgical procedure if this last treatment does not work. As anyone else, I enjoy having my fingers look nice because I’m client facing daily, this has made things tough as well as embarrassing.
After this experience, I decided I would do my nails on my own after my fingers heal, as I do not want to risk it any longer. This was pretty horrific. If you go here, take care if you get knicked/​cut. The place it self is quite pleasant, maybe bring your own tools+polish?
Anyway. This is a PSA.

I had a great experience here!
I came in with two of my co workers who are regulars here. I was instantly impressed with the customer service and warm smiles from all the employees.
Entire shop is clean and organized. They uses new sanitized tools that they opened in front of me.
I got a full set and polish change for my toes. All of the polishes were color and brand coded. They use top quality product (opi & china glaze mostly) and have a huge selection of colors.
Lina did an amazing job on my nails! 5 stars! I highly recommend her!

I’ve come here a few times but today is my last visit to LA nails. You should never leave a nail salon bleeding. And the manicure is a mess.

I am a semi-​regular customer at LA Nails on Pike Street. It’s a great place for a quality, low priced mani/​pedi. They are nice, friendly, and the shop is clean. I’m almost always satisfied with my nails when I leave. I think the only time I wasn’t was because the polish was old and didn’t dry right. They recently remodeled and updated the shop, which I think means business is good!

I walked in without an appointment on a Saturday afternoon and they got me right in and out when I said I was in a hurry! My nails looked fantastic! and I’ll definitely be back!

I have been in 5 times for a full almond nail set, and each time it has been absolutely fabulous. There are no bubbles in the acrylic, it has been perfectly smooth, and the nail tech took really great care of my cuticles at the same time. I have been to too many shops in Seattle to have now just found this shop, but I am so glad I finally found LA Nails!

I work right down the street and I stopped by on my lunch break. They got me right in and did a fantastic job! I will definitely be going back!

Staff is friendly. They always take there time. I’m not too picky at all by any means. It’s simple quick to get in and my nails always look nice.

DO NOT GO HERE THEYRE VERY DIRTY AND RUDE!!!
I have never written a review in my life for anything no matter how bad it was, but I feel inclined to now because of my terrible service I had here.
I’ve been coming for a few months since I work up the street at a salon. Usually it wasn’t too bad, but this was terrible…
I went in for my normal fill, which is more expensive than any place I’ve ever been. First of all it either takes forever to get my nails done, or its done way too fast. Second they aren’t careful at all and I’ve been burned with the drill, or my cuticles cut too short or pulled on (which is now illegal to do in washington in the first place!!!). This time I left and they looked pretty good for a $ 25 fill. But about a day later my fingers were sore, and I noticed that they were red, swollen and warm to the touch! I lightly pushed on one and liquid came out… I actually ended up at the ER with an infection under my cuticles from dirty tools after cutting them. And I’m now on an anti biotic that has to be taken 3 times a day for a month because they’re so bad.
And I am a hairstylist, so I’m constantly washing my hands, so it’s not like my hands are that dirty.
I went in a few days later to show the lady that did my nails, and she laughed at me and refused to refund me. I was being very nice and she laughed in my face.
DO NOT GO HERE.
I’m in the process of reporting them to the department of health and getting them shut down for good.

The ladies here are super nice and do a wonderful job with both nails and waxing. Hands down one of my favorite nail places I’ve been to in Seattle!

Vivian did a wonderful job! She fixed the horrid mess another nail shop did on me. I will be with her from now on! Plus she is right by my job… SUPER BONUS!!!

Great customer service. Vivienne and the rest of the ladies are reallt good. I always feel welcomed and pampered.

I went there for a fill about a month ago, the fill was thick looking and the grow out was not gradual, so there was a ridge of acrylic and new nail, which I never had visiting 8^th day spa. So I couldn’t stand looking at them anymore so I had to get them off, so I did that and went in for shaping and polish. The manicure Polish was sloppy and my nail tech could hardly communicate with me (which is fine, unless there’s an issue) still I left and went on with my normal activities. The next day half my polish is gone and chipping off because of several reason that could have been addressed on Monday. It is now Wednesday and I have time to have them fix it, and they’re trying to tell me that’s it’s my fault because I had acrylics on, or the Polish is too bright, or what ever.
So they offer to fix it but I don’t think the skill in the shop is worth it so I ask for a refund of just the nail service so refused. I call a friend of mine who is from Vietnam to explain my side and my suggestion for the service and the women who speaks the most English tells her not to speak to her in Vietnamese.
So $ 33 wasted, I will never get my nails done anywhere other than 8^th day spa. Every time you walk in to a salon or nail shop in Seattle it’s a gamble. I can’t! So that means I’m driving out to federal way for a f@*king manicure!!!
