“I am visiting from NC and kinda got turned around looking for this salon. However, when I finally found it, I was very happy with my technician Jessie. She was very attentive and did a great job repairing one of my toenails, also she gave me a great leg massage. The salon was clean and spacious, also the bathroom was clean. Thank you, if I’m ever in Pasadena again I will come back to get my nails done.

Cleanliness: The salon was clean and bathroom was clean!“

L Beauty Nail Salons

“I have had my nails done by most of the nail techs and they are all wonderful - very kind, attentive, and accommodating. They always make sure my nails look perfect; even if I’m ready to pay and walk out the door, if they notice something is a tiny bit off, they will offer to keep going to make sure it’s perfect. It’s a small place, no frills, but very calming and clean, and it doesn’t smell like chemicals like some other salons.

Specialties: Airbrush ombré“

Polished Nail Studio Nail Salons

“A little GEM that I have been searching for for over a decade!! All other nail salons in the San Gabriel Valley/Pasadena area noisy, unprofessional, dirty, and the technicians are abrasive. There is no sense of calmness or relaxation that one expects when having your nails done. Polished Nails is quaint, super clean, charming and it has a pleasant atmosphere. Karen does my nails and like never before, they are strong and healthy because of the care and products she uses. Attention to detail is a non-negotiable, she is so knowledgeable and takes her time. I finally have found my little piece of “nail” heaven.“

Atelierludan Nail Salons

“A small boutique that's clean, friendly, and professional. My nail tech Angy is amazing and I highly recommend her for gel removal and design. She is incredibly detail oriented and honestly one of the few I trust with my nails. I have had bad experiences at other salons that damaged my nails from removals but Angy was so gentle and careful. I didn't feel any discomfort and she checked in every once in a while to make sure I was good and comfortable. The gel quality is something else because it's been four weeks and it looks the exact same minus the nail growth. Absolutely fell in love with this design and quality. I'll definitely be coming back.“

ROYALTY SALON PASADENA Nail Salons

“I've been here 3 times now and each time I'm pretty satisfied with the service. I think there are distinct pros and cons for all their nail techs that did my nail but in general, I think this is a reliable spot. I do want to note that it is on the pricier side but I never leave the place hating my nails. 1st visit (GelX Purple French tip w/ extra white line) - Forgot to ask for Nail Tech's name - Cost: ~ $120 (I don't remember the exact amount) - This was probably the BEST nail set I've ever had. I opted for GelX because my nails, at the time, were very brittle and short. The nail tech did an amazing job as this set lasted more than a month and still looks really good. The application was so detailed that everything stayed in tack with no chipping even after 2 months later (although at this point they were very grown out. I just didn't have time to take them off while traveling). I really wish I got her name (I'm hoping they see this so they can let me know their name and I can book them again). Every french tip double line was hand drawn. The only down side to this set was that it took 4 hours because she was so detailed on the prep for the Gel X. 2nd visit (GelX French tip with pink/ red hearts) - Nail Tech: Elena - Cost: $130 + tip - My experience with Elena is also so good. She was more talkative and would even ask me which korean drama I wanted to watch in case I got bored. I think her prep was not as good as the first tech, but the nails also lasted a reasonable amount of time. I also loved how knowledgeable she was about nails and was able to advise me to make the best choice when choosing Gelx/hard gel/ soft gel for my next visit. 3rd visit (Regular Gel Neutral nail + 2 finger w/ glitter) - Nail Tech: Leah - Cost: $60 + tip - I called the day of and Leah was able to squeeze me in last minute. I think the way she shapes my nail is perfect and makes my nails look so flattering. I do want to note that I also don't think she is great at design. She's not as talkative (which I don't mind at all) but there are sometimes when I have a hard time understanding what she is asking. I originally called asking for a gel only manicure but when I arrived, I did ask if she was able to do a simple design. She initially said no, (which I was okay with) but towards the end she attempted to do this simple zigzag design on my index finger. After a couple of tries she let me know she couldn't do it. I would have been find with having no design but the only thing is, she already painted a "design" with glitter on my ring finger so I had to commit to something on the index finger or else it would look odd. I kind of just let it go and ended up having glitter on 2 fingers. I kind of wish she just said she couldn't do it from the beginning. She was talking to the other tech in Chinese saying "The customer thinks the design is simple, but it's hard. They don't understand. I just told her we don't have this glitter". Lastly, I think she also had a bit of a heavy hand. During nail prep, she is a bit more rough. The side of my nails do feel a bit inflamed, not enough where I got cut, but enough for you to kind of see it being red on camera. The service was also on the faster side. This whole set took about an hr.“

“I want to gatekeep this place so badly because it's next to my house and I never have an issue getting in. I've visited twice already and ask for Christina. SHE IS SOOOO GOOD. I don't think I could stop raving about her work. She's super detail oriented and her designs are so adorable. I came in and requested an unknowingly detailed design and she took 2.5 hrs to work on my hands and never got lazy. She's also really gentle when handling my cuticles. I've been cut by so many others but she was always cautious to check if she's hurting me. Her work ethic is amazing. I felt so bad for making her draw for so long but she was so kind about it. I hope Sun Nail realizes what a gem she is!!

I will continue to return and tell all my family and friends about this place. Small businesses with amazing staff is always rare!

PS i love christina. ?“

Uni Nail Innovation Nail Salons

“Always a spectacular success coming to uni nail, and having Cassie at the helm, in particular. If your idea is to be chatty with your nail artist, this definitely won't be your nail salon as the vibe here is tranquil relaxation, and I recommend not engaging in louder social communications with techs or friends, that some salons even encourage. Whether that's your choice or not, the end result is what really matters, is it not? With Cassie's gel mani, 3-4 week scheduling until next visit is normal. This makes the higher end price worth while, and especially because the Japanese nail line here at Uni Nail is organic and much safer for your nails overall.“

“OMG the best nail salon I've ever been to! Gina and Joyce are both wonderful. This cozy salon is tucked into a charming shopping area where you can forget the chaos of the world and get on with the glorious pampering. This is the opposite of the ubiquitous mani pedi assembly line salons on every block. You will feel like the only client in the world. I got a sorely needed mani pedi and went with Dazzle Dry polish which is non toxic and lasts soooooo long. Worth every penny. Thanks for a lovely afternoon gals!!“
