LA Nails Too

This place sucks got my nails done full set on Wednesday last week and already 4felloff!!!

Horrible place !!! Not worth going too they give you attitude and don’t know how to do nails.

My go to nail salon whenever I am in West Covina. Today, Evelyn did my gel manicure which I must say has been my favorite ever done. She rocked it. I love how she took her time, asked me if throughout my manicure what I wanted and delivered. The gel manicure was 25 but I tipped her 10 for the awesome job. I also had my eyebrows and upper lip waxed by Tina. She did a great job, very friendly and remember me last time I went. I tipped her 5, and the wax job was 13. A total of 53. For the service I obtained I think it was well worth it. I usually come in as a walk in, but will make sure to make an appointment next time with Evelyn so I can have my nails done by her again.

I had a full set that was grown out about a month she told me she could not add an extension on my nail. I had two broken nails from my old set and so with ANOTHER ACRYLIC nail she «removed» ripped off my broken nail along with my real nail! Wow I was in so much pain! I was embarrassed because I took a friend with me, and I told her their great. Her nails came out good but mine didn’t. it’s all on who u get here.

Just got my nails done here and I am super impressed!
I’m in town visiting and had time to kill so I got a full set. I called in and requested her because she had multiple other 5 star reviews and I’m glad I did.
I sat down with Debbie and told her exactly what I wanted, coffin narrow width and not to thick of an acrylic overlay. She killed it! She knew exactly what I wanted but made sure to ask me if I liked them each step of the way
What I didn’t tell her was that I ordinarily do my own acrylic nails, so I really appreciate that she took her time and made sure everything was even, symmetrical and perfect
I’ll definitely go back to get the next time I visit

So I’ve been coming here for a few years now cause it’s very convenient. If they’re busy. I just walk around for a while. They do a good job. I’ve also had eye lash extensions done there too.

I came back for a pedicure the next week and was even more impressed!!! Great, quality service!!! There’s lots of people who work here too, so you’re likely to get immediate service. If you can, have Kelly do your nails. She did my mani and pedi and really went beyond expectations.

I went in for a new full set today and a pedicure. They offered to do both services at the same time. Helen did my pedicure and she did a nice job. She was very sweet and did a decent job on my pedicure. She missed a few areas on my actual toe nail but the customer experience she provided made up for it. Nancy on the other hand was extremely unprofessional. She began removing my old set and she answered a phone call during that process. She was busy laughing away at the conversation she was having that she wasn’t providing the attention to my nails. What I had came in for and paying for. She was extremely rough with my nails and my nail bed were in extreme pain because she wasnt gentle with them. She made my short set extremely thick and I asked her to file them down even more. Every single nail was uneven and thick in different areas. I asked her to file them more politely. She was upset and she began violently and roughly filing my nails with a drill so rough that I felt instant heat from underneath my acrylic nail within a matter of seconds. Extremely unprofessional. There is no need to take out your aggression on my nails because you just simply do not know how to make them even. She painted them and she painted all over my cuticle. She didn’t even bother to clean it up afterwards until I had asked her to. My nails are all different lengths, Uneven shapes and crooked. I will never return to this nail shop again and I’ll make sure none of my family and friends come here as well. Extremely unprofessional staff.

Let me start off by saying the place was dirty they don’t sanity any of the tools they use. Also I asked for gel French and Ivy didn’t know how to polish or use gel but that’s beyond the point I asked her to just polish my nails all white to make her life easier and she applied the new polish ontop of the messy French Tips so I told her to «just take all of it off I want to pay and just leave» she then started
To take the polish off but as she was doing that she cut me on almost every nail. I did get a pedicure and it was good for the most part besides the spa being extremely dirty.

It was my first time coming here so I didn’t know what to expect. I was in the area and needed a place open late and came across this place. They were helpful
over the phone when I called & asked them were they were located and when I walked in. I asked for a full set and was seated right away. The employee that was helping me even asked me what shape I wanted and seem pleased to help. (Some place seem bothered when you ask
For something diff) I was happy with my nails and that she knew what she was
Doing and didn’t take forever. Yes, they might not be super cheerful and they might seem more direct but knowing a place that’s open till 9pm and does a good job. I was happy!

So far, every person I got was great, but my top 3 are nancy, stacy, and evelyn. Evelyn is very quick. Nancy is very delicate. Stacy is all around good. They are all personable, and thus place is decently priced for the type of work they provide.
Tip: ALWAYS BOOK AN APPOINTMENT. They are very busy

Oh man… What a disappointment.
Really wanted to like this place. Decided to try it out base on the great pics and reviews.
I booked an appointment with LEYNA because most of the stilleto nail photos and reviews mentioned her name.
So I came in today on time for my 12:00 appointment. The receptionist was very nice and told me to sit at the first station.
I wasn’t sure if she was my nail tech or not because she hadn’t even acknowledged me since she was so busy on her phone and iPad.
Finally she put her stuff away and starts clipping my nails then buffed them with the electric file. She was doing it so fast and aggressive it hurt actually because my nails are thin from years and years of acrylics.
She asked me how I wanted my nails and I showed her a picture from Unilocal which is actually her work. (stilleto nails)
She glued on the tips but so carelessly they didn’t even fit my nails correctly. MEANWHILE COUGHING ON MY HANDS. Half of the tips were way too small so my real nail beds were just hanging off the sides!
She clipped the length and I told her that some were shorter than others and she told me no they were all the same.
Then she clipped the sides and filed them but did them so fast she wasn’t even paying attention to the shape! Idk why she was rushing and being so careless! I told her the shape was very off (part of the reason being that all the lengths were uneven to begin with). But she told me after she applied the acrylic and reshape do it then they would all match. Wrong! They looked completely botched! I told her that they didn’t blend and she said I just have wide nail beds. I small long nail beds actually. She tried to blend the unfit tips by glopping on more acrylic which dripped all onto my skin under the tip.
I turned around and ask the receptionist if someone else could fix it. She knew they didn’t look right either. She set me up with Evalynn (I think that’s her name. Cute little preggers lady). She tried to fix my nail by adding acrylics with free form stickers then reshaping them. By then they were way too pointy like witch nails! She tried I convince me to keep them and just come back for a fill in 2 weeks and then they would fix them! Hell no was I going to pay for and walk around with that ratchet set of nails! She had the exact shaped wanted and tried to convince me they were similar. I’m like fuck no they look nothing like yours and I put them beside her nails. She told me it’s because hers are a month old. Girlll quit playin! I’m no rookie at this. I’ve been getting acrylic nails for 10 years! I had her take them all off so I could gtfo of that place!
3.5 HOURS LATER. I finally pay the receptionist the $ 10 they charged for me for the removal. Just to walk out with no set of nails and acrylic all over my hands. Whatever better than paying for the horrid full set I had. Then sat in rush hour traffic back to dbar. Waste of time, gas, and money. Never ever returning!
I DO NOT RECOMMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

I really love the convenience of this place. It’s in the mall so it stays open longer than other nail salons which works out perfect for me when I get off work or school late. The prices are affordable and they do a pretty good job!
But it’s always so so so busy! ^ probably for all of those reasons. I’ve been here four times now and after waiting forty minutes the first time, I make appointments every time. But I’ve never been seated at my appointment time which sucks. I’ve waiting twenty minutes after my appointment time when I’ve come five minutes early! Today I showed up ten minutes early and got seated ten minutes after my appointment time and then they didn’t actual start until ten minutes after that!
They do a good job of the actual services. I just really wish they would better plan for their appointments!

Another Full Set Done! Called the day of for an appointment with Michelle — very happy I got one for 8:00pm — so happy they are open until 9! Michelle was very precise — taking each finger and measuring again others so they are all even. I’m glad she pays attention to detail. She is definitely a good person to ask for for a full set.
Located inside the mall — I see alot of people walk-​in, put in their names, go shopping, and then come back. What a great way to use your time wisely!

Unilocal 2015 Review #49
I’m looking through the reviews and I don’t think there’s a guy who has written a review of this place. Oh shoot well MAYBE I’M THE FIRST: P (Anyone who wants to go scroll through all (57) reviews to check can be my guest: P)
My friend and I were out celebrating, oh you know, some random thing, and I was looking for the coffee place inside Westfield West Co. During out search, we passed by LA Nails Too and my friend was like «ooh let’s do this later!» xD
After getting our coffee fix, we stood outside here.
Her:“Do you want to do this? I’m down if you’re down“
Me: «I’m down if you’re down»
That went on for a lengthy time before I realized that it was gonna be back and forth. I usually do a lot of random things so I said yes to it. YES to everything. :P
This place is kinda pricey (It was $ 12 for a manicure) — See it even has man in there xD, but for a guy, to make it shinier (I think) there was an extra charge. ._​. I was like nooo. It’s already $ 12 for the manicure, and charges would easily go up. We told the person in the front what we wanted, and she told us to go to a table.
At the table, we sat next to each other and two workers came to do our nails. Hmmm. If I remember correctly I put my fingers into this… water thingy to soak my fingers, one for each hand. She clipped the nails and then fined them. After that she took over and demolished the skin in between the nail and the finger. No clue what that’s called. That part took the longest: P And then after that came the sanding of the fingernail and then lo and behold, twas finished. Washed everything away at the end and gave a tip: D. During this… makeover?, we talked about school, life, and whatnot, so they are really engaging and open about their lives as well. It’s not the awkward oh hey let me just do your nails in awkward silence. :P
Oh yeah mention that this is my first time here at a nail salon.
My friend and I were satisfied with what we got: P But why didn’t I get a coat of… clear nail polish? Actually I think it was both an undercoat and a clear nail polish haha. They should ask that! :P
tl;dr:
THIS REVIEW IS ONLY FOR THE MANICURE. SO ONLY BASE IT OFF THE MANICURE, rather than pedicure and other things that you can do in nail salons haha. Prices do add up, but fun experience.

This was my first time here.
I was surprised to find out it was inside the mall… and with Christmas around the corner, parking was difficult to find. That being said, I was late for my appointment but they graciously took me and my friend in with no delay even though it was super crowded.
Sonny did my acrylic fill and gel polish really well and made sure everything was to my liking. Helen did my pedicure and was really personable and funny. They were both really nice.
The only thing I would say is that the price that the person quoted me on the phone was slightly lower than what they actually charged me in person. Since it’s the holiday season I didn’t really mind. I would’ve given this place 5 stars but it’s not as tranquil or clean as it could be. But other than those things, they themselves did a really good job! I would come back.
I paid $ 25 for my fill and gel & $ 17 for my pedicure. $ 42 + tip in total
Kelly #1 did my friend’s mani pedi and did a good job too!
I would advise you to make an appointment if you’re coming on a weekend.
— – UPDATE — –
Unilocal wouldn’t let me update my review so I’m writing it here:
My friend and I realized that they didn’t use new/​sterilized tools for our pedicures and now we’re both in pain and have infections on our toes…
As good as a job as they did, when you use unsterile tools it ruins the whole experience and puts your customer’s health at risk.
Sterilize your tools!

I am in love with this place!!! Been the the WCM so many times and never bothered to check this place. First time here, about 3 weeks ago I came in completely clueless. All I knew is that I wanted nails. I had Debbie do my nails. The communication with her was hard but she understood well and by the time I was done; I was more than pleased. Beautiful job! She was very patient and making sure they were done well. She wasn’t sitting there gossiping in another language. I had requested short nails since I have to constantly interact with patients and wash my hands. They were going strong after 3 weeks and still looked great despite my constant hand washing.
I went again on Wednesday (¹²⁄₁₀) and requested the same girl; Debbie. This time to get a new set. And yet again she did a great job!!!
This place is small and not much space. It’s very busy! But they never turn down a customer and they are friendly when greeting you.
However I do recommend that you make an «appointment» just in case.

You guys, I don’t even know where to begin!
I had the WORST experience at a nail salon, and I came here to get them fixed. Sunny helped me immediately and let me know up front what it was going to cost. I was assisted immediately.
He cleaned his tools, got new ones… Whatever it took to get my nails perfect. Want to know the best thing about this? I didn’t even have to ask, he just understood what I wanted and liked.
I have never had someone work on my nails so carefully. He filed them and then inspected in every direction.
I am definitely coming back and recommending some people! I couldn’t be happier :-D thanks, Sunny!

Most nail salon closes at 7pm and I get off work at 6pm. I hate it when manicurists rush because that just causes accidental cuts and poor polishing. Since LA Nail Too is located inside The Westfield Mall they are open during mall hours.
They were busier than the other nail shops in the mall so my niece and I decided to give them try and I’m glad we did.
My nail technician Tony was very nice and really patient. I had a difficult request because of an upcoming kpop event. I wanted each finger to be different. He was such a perfectionist and I appreciate that he still took his time even though the mall was already closed.
Overall the customer service was excellent. They have a huge selection of gel color. From my observation all the customers seemed to be happy and satisfied.
cam on nhiu! đep lam :)

I’ve been to a lot of nail salons in the area and I’ve found my new go to place.
I admit I’ve walked past this place a million times before (I always assumed it was extremely overpriced because its located inside the mall) but randomly wanting to get my nails done at 7:30pm on a Saturday I decided to try this place out.
I’m definitely glad I did! Michelle did great on my acrylic full set ((it’s perfect. The acrylic isn’t too thin nor too thick and she did awesome on the almond shape I spontaneously decided upon)) and Helen did amazing on my toes. I’ve been to 2 other nail salons in the past month and I wasn’t satisfied with the pedicures I received. Helen on the other hand didn’t need any instructions from me. she just went to work on my cuticles etc. She scrubbed my feet where I needed it the most (around the heels).
$ 27 for my full set $ 15 for my spa pedi. Worth the $ 42. SO happy with my new nails.
I really appreciated how I didn’t feel rushed or like I was burdening them since they closed at 9 and I got there a little after 8pm. Michelle took her time with my nails and it’s the first time since I’ve been getting my nails (12 yrs and counting) that I didn’t ruin the nail polish in some way before they dried.
Thanks LA Nails Too. I really enjoyed my 1^st visit.
Btw they sat me down right away when I got there. I called and let them know I’d be there in 10mins. No wait time! Yay! Lol
