Real Nails & Spa

I live up the street so I always walk here to get pedicures. A basic pedicure is $ 15, not bad at all and the ladies are nice. I’ve always been able to just walk in but an appointment wouldn’t be a bad idea considering Ive never seen more than 3 women working at a time here, it’s a small salon. And the massage chairs are ah-​mazing!

I love this place — it’s small so being a walk in can be difficult — but they are amazing!

First off Anna is. Truly talented when it comes to nails … She amazing I got a full set medium length with 2 3d designs for 30 which is a great price she takes her time and makes sure that everything is perfect and Kim was really great with my pedicure she was really quick and made me feel very relaxed

Small nail salon located in a little strip mall but I was very surprised with their service. They did a great job and the prices are very reasonable. I got a pedicure and was very happy with the results. This will be my go to place in Long Beach. They also have a great selection of nail polishes such as China Glaze, Essie, and O.P.I.

Disappointed

I usually come here all the time. She did such a sloppy job because someone else walked in, so of course she was in a hurry to get to the next person. Such a waste of my time and money! You lost a customer.

Dude needs to work on his customer service skills. There must be a more polite way to say you’re busy. That’s twice now. Won’t get me 3 times

Unless you have an appointment or a lot of time on your hands this is not the place for you. I went to take my 96 yr old grandma there because she like the $ 19.99 price.
The first time we went there were 3 customers and only 2 workers. They said it would take a long time ans we should come back it was a friday close to 5.
The second I went there to take my grandmother again it was a Wednesday at like 1130. There was one lady that the same two people were working one and no one else in the shop. I asked how long the wait would be and the lady said 20 min. I said ok my grandmother is going to wait here. Then the man working on the same girl said oh its going to take to long come back another time.
Honestly im not one to even write any reviews but this place just made me so mad. If you don’t want business don’t open your door. Just remember u get what u pay for.

Since my nail shop closed down a couple months ago, I’ve been looking for a place that I’ll love like I loved my old one. And this place was the one. I love this place and it’s atmosphere! I don’t know why their rating is low and what most people are talking about. The owner takes such good care of my boyfriend and my mom when I bring them with me. Their prices are pretty decent for a good job. Definitely coming here more often!

Got the mani and pedi package. Thought it was $ 23 but turned out to be $ 33 (not including tip) because I asked for a design. The quality of the job was really cheap. Looked like I painted my nails myself.
I hate bashing on them bc they were so nice, but that was a lot of money for crap.

Went in for a mani-​pedi and left happy. The girls who worked on me were both sweet and accomodating. Prices are reasonable. Mani-​pedi $ 23.

I came in and was greeted by a nasty looking lady who had mustard spilled on her chest and on the corner of her mouth. Which was gross and gave me a very bad impression. Anyways… I came in to get eyelashes and and a gel manicure. She did my eyelashes and didn’t even wash her hands! I had to remind her to. The eyelashes came out ok. After my lashes I got my manicure and I have to say it was a really excellent job I was impressed. They have 200 colors to choose from, and all colors were true to their display. Their UV light was dirty on the inside where you place your hands. They are just tacky. After the manicure I paid with a card and asked for change for $ 10 to tip (my manicure was $ 20 fyi). I set my money & phone on the counter to get my keys out of my bag and next thing I know, THE GIRL SWIPED MY MONEY OFF THE COUNTER! ALL $ 10! I’m like, excuse me that was not for you! She didn’t even apologize she just set it down, & I was going to give her $ 5 but I gave her $ 2 because that was beyond rude & unprofessional.
I’m giving 2 stars because the place is a dump! Especially for the neighborhood, compared to the other nail salons in the area, this one is a hole in the wall and the employees look a mess they don’t care about hygiene, appearance or customer service.

Love this place. Prices are affordable & the nail techs are always on point! Never had an issue here. I keep coming back!

The friend who rated it a 3.5 at the time ended up getting hangnails shortly afterward, and now votes for a 0!

Wonderful staff, great prices and excellent service. I had the Deluxe Pedicure with the Paraffin wax treatment, HEAVEN. And my daughter couldn’t believe how nice the bottoms of my feet looked, smooth and no roughness or cracks. My feet are 50+ yrs old.
I always go on the weekends and if you arrive early in the day, you can always get in without a wait. Seems around noon they get crowded so you may have to wait.

Love this place! Everyone does an amazing job especially Jayden. Super friendly staff, clean environment and amazing color selection, both gel and regular polish colors. After going here I will never get my nails done anywhere else.

I went after getting the LivingSocial deal for $ 17. I chose gel and was seated right away because the shop wasn’t busy. I asked if I could get a french tip and was told I’d pay $ 8 more. I was okay with it since I was there but I didn’t think it was a deal since thats what I normally pay at my local nail salon. The job was nice and atmosphere wasn’t terrible. I wish I remembered the guy who did my nails but he did try to make sure I left happy with the nails so I appreciated that.

I decided to try this place because I saw a Living Social deal for $ 17 for a Gel Manicure. It is seriously a hole-​in-​the-​wall with 1970’s colors (yellows and golds). The TV was playing some midday Soap Opera.. . I wished there was some music or something to relax my mood. The nail tech was super sweet and good at her job (Lynn). The chair I sat in at the regular manicure station was not comfortable at all, and I was pointed into a corner, so not much to look at except for the girl working on my nails. The owner/​manager came by several times to check on me. The two ladies were very nice. While I was there (for 1.25 hrs) there weren’t any other customers. Maybe this is why they are reaching out through Living Social? On my way out, when I was tipping my Nail Tech, they said it would cost $ 3 more for taking my old Gel off before my manicure. So basically, I paid $ 20 with my Living Social voucher. They said a normal Gel Manicure is $ 35, which is $ 10 more that I usually pay. Not a bargain, especially for a hole-​in-​the-​wall. Nice job though, and I liked the end result. Just no frills.

This place is perfect for girl who want to have a beautiful full set of nail service like me. I went there with my boy friend last weekend, and I totally happy with the service, the price is right, the cleanness is good, chair is nice, and comfortable. The owner and employee are nice, good, and treat us very good. Definitely recommended.
