Bliss on Broadway

First time here for the spa mani/​pedi with the boyfriend. Ivy was awesome! Her massage was so relaxing and she added just the right amount of pressure. The warming lotion is a huge plus! Will have to rebook with her again. She got all my cuticles and made my nails look nice and pretty.
My boyfriend had Camille. He had his nails buffed instead of color for the «not so shiny» look if you’re looking for a manly mani/​pedi. Just know it’s an extra $ 12 which we were not informed of until we were checking out. Thought it would be covered for since obviously he didn’t get his nails polished. Also he said she didn’t use any pressure or warming lotion during his massage. Too bad for him…
Nonetheless Ivy is great!!!

I have been going to Bliss on Broadway for several months now, and they are nice in there and do a decent job. Though I am not there weekly, I am fairly regular with my nail services and always call to make an appointment for a spa mani-​pedi. The last two times I have been, though, the outcome was just OK at best.
While it was an OK service today and the massages on my arms and legs felt awesome, I was not happy afterward. My manicurist had kind of aggressively tried to up-​sell me on adding a paraffin treatment, which I kept saying no thank you to… My pedicurist was a sweet girl, but asked if I wanted callus removal. I said ‘no,’ just the regular scrub that comes with the spa pedicure. I guess she misunderstood (maybe doesn’t speak as good of English as other techs?) and took that to mean I wanted the orange foot scrub, which is an extra $ 6 – 8.
The mistake was realized when I went to the front to pay, but by that point the girl was on to another client and not available to come discuss. I get that misunderstandings occur, but my approach would have been: look at the appointment book, see that I had asked specifically for the ‘spa’ version of the pedicure, listen to the fact that I had ASKED during the treatment «does this scrub come with the spa pedi?» (to which she said yes!), and charge me according to my reservation. Stephanie at the front desk was really nice and apologetic, but due to this and my overall experience the last couple of times I will not be back to Bliss…

Annie is great!!! Not only did she get me in at the last minute but gave me a really nice design…

It’s unfortunate that I just came from Bliss having had a great massage and upon leaving they wouldn’t honor the credit I have on file from a left over SpaFinder Gift Certificate I had brought in a few months ago.
I was told that a card with my balance was given to me, and I HAD to have that card in order to redeem my left over $ 75 which I planned on using to pay for my massage today. As well my $ 75 was noted in their notebook– the gal pointed it out to me.
I KNOW for a fact that a card with my balance was NOT given to me but the not so friendly gal working the front desk insisted I have it. As well I pulled up my SpaFinder Gift Cert on my phone, but they weren’t having it.
So there you have it… a lost customer who was planning on buying the monthly membership package from you. Yep you’re missing out on a monthly customer who is going to give my money to one of the 50 other spas in Long Beach.
It’s a shame that you don’t put the customer first Bliss with all the competition around you. Hope you enjoyed keeping my $ 75!

Clean. Professional. Personable.
I was visiting the area to see friends and we decided to get an impromptu pedicure. We walk in and, and while they didn’t have a slot immediately open, we made a same-​day appointment for an hour later and went to a local bar while we waited. When our appointment time came, the staff was immediately attentive, friendly, and professional. They did a FANTASTIC job and were very knowledgeable about their products and services. My friends were also very happy with their manicures and they’ll definitely come back for future nail appointments.

Spent my morning here for the first time at Bliss and it was the best morning, ever. Akiko and Nikki were so sweet and friendly. They really care about their work and do so well. I will be back just for them and the beautiful atmosphere and music :)

Took my girlfriend in for a mani pedi and myself for a pedicure. When making the appointment I asked if we could bring my gf’s dog. The lady was super excited that we wanted to bring him in and said that would be great and not a problem at all. Upon our arrival the staff was friendly and all took interest in the dog, not seeming the slightest bit bothered by him being there with us. They did a good job on my pedicure I think, it’s only like my 4^th one ever. My gf was pleased with the outcome of her services. I would have liked them to communicate pricing a little clearer but that did not hamper my overall experience. We will be returning again soon, with the dog too!

Words can not describe how much I love this place. Everything is so darn good. I can’t live without their burritos. I eat here at least once a week. I would eat here every night if I could. The green salsa is so good with a wet bean and cheese burrito with red sauce! Anything here is to die for!!! Contemplating having them cater my wedding one day hahahaha

Great spot for relaxing pedicures. Everyone is very friendly and my pedicures always come out great. Nice change from other nail salons that are loud and rush you out.

Where do I even begin!
Lauren’s Lashes — It was my first time getting lash extensions after contemplating them for years! Lauren made sure to keep me calm and reassured how much I’d love them… Boy was she right!!! I am obsessed with my lashes now! If you’re like me and would rather not wear makeup, these are a life saver! An extra bonus is when you do put on some extra makeup the lashes look amazing! The process takes about 1.5−2hrs and its absolutely painless /​pretty relaxing! You just lay down and relax :) — trust me, give them a try!!! & ask for Lauren! Oh, and she does my brows :)
Healthy Nail Dip — I’ve had acrylics for years. And then I was told about this cool new technique called healthy nail dip. It’s basically the same strength of acrylics without the damage! It’s also a lot faster and odor free. I’d suggest trying it out! I’ve had a few ladies do my nails and all of them did a great job.
Nail Design — Sometimes I like getting my nails bedazzled, it’s such a fun and collaborative process with these ladies! They make you feel like your an artist, give it a try — Add some sparkle: P
Overall — Customer service is spectacular, you’re not just a client here your part of the «Bliss family» + it’s always sparkly clean and the ambiance is beautiful!

Lauren did an amazing job with my lash extensions! Sooooo happy with the service, and this super clean /​pretty spa.

I am very disappointed to read a post from Jennifer. I have been a client of Bliss, since they opened. Nothing but amazing service and care. Camlyn has grown the business. With the exception of a couple bad apples, who are no longer employed, the staff is awesome. The atmosphere is perfect, and I trust them to treat me and all other clients with the utmost of care and respect. Never have I had a problem with any kind of fungus or unhealthy practices. The previous post, infuriates me. Please see for yourself. It’s a lovely little local spa

Beautifully decorated. Friendly staff. Great service. Very clean. Punctual.
VIP pedicure with reservation.

I REALLY want to like this place, I really do. However, I’m writing this from sitting in a chair at the spa with all the customers thinking I’m a jerk, because I’ve been waiting for 15 minutes for a new gel manicure, and keep getting told ‘five more minutes’. My gel color is uneven, parts are chipping and you can see my bare nail on most of my fingers. Also, I came here in February with an appointment, and it took them 30 minutes before I was acknowledged. I ended up walking out, and I’m about to do the same. I gave it another shot because they have a gel special on select days, and need my fingers done for an event tomorrow. (now I’m at 20 minutes, and still waiting. if I hadn’t already paid, I would of been out the door.) the employees are completely ignoring me as well, and haven’t offered any water, or the option to pick a new color.
I won’t be returning, and I’m still waiting, 25 minutes later. The perpetual hunt continues for a good nail salon.

I had a wonderful spa day on short notice recently at Bliss. I emailed in the morning with a list of services I wanted for my day of beauty and relaxation the spa coordinator Camlynn provided an excellent customer service experience start to finish. She reached out to me promptly and was able to accommodate my short notice request for spa services. The spa is beautifully appointed inside and all the staff was kind and professional. Here’s a summary of my services and experience:
Hot stone massage by Ali — One of the best massages I’ve ever had. Ali was able to find all the areas that needed attention without my telling her, very intuitive and understands muscular structure well. She was attentive to pressure and overall great experience.
Facial and eyebrow waxing by Lauren — Lots of great skin care tips and she really got my pores clean. Very personable but not too talkative so as to allow me to enjoy the facial.
Gel Mani by Jen — 2 weeks in and the nails and there are still no chips on the ends of my nails. It’s definitely time to get them done again because of growth but the polish sealed well and has lasted.
Pedi by Ivy — Again I am 2 weeks in, I’ve worn all kinds of shoes that would normally chip my polish but there is only one small chip and it has lasted well. Ivy also gave a wonderful foot massage and was very careful to ensure that cleaning up my cuticles was not painful.

Few weeks ago I visited this place with my wife and it was our first spa treatment as a couple. I had no particular problems with the service and the only reason I am writing this review is because of a very stressful experience me and my wife had due to the owner’s (or the manager’s) unprofessionalism.
My wife expressed that she was not happy with the service and the owner responded to that very rudely saying that she doesn’t see the issue even though it was evident. The argument went back and forth and you could tell that the owner was behaving very unprofessionally. At that point I knew we won’t be coming back and I just wanted to leave the place, so I told my wife that 50% off is fine and that we should just leave. so we did.
The owner made very inappropriate remarks regarding my wife on our way out and it was quite uncomfortable for both of us.
P. S. The owner’s Unilocal response to my wife included a sentence about her hitting me. My wife wasn’t hitting anyone, she just waved her hand and smacked my elbow as I was behind her. She quickly apologized and continued to talk to the owner. There was not anything awkward about that and I am surprised that owner would write such a thing, but that speaks of how unprofessional she is. I guess attacking her customers on personal level and making up stories is just an example of the owner’s unprofessionalism.

I live near Bliss but have never been here until today. I’m so glad I stopped in, it turned out to be exactly the quick 1 hour getaway/​rest I needed! I called 1 hour before closing and asked if they could squeeze me in for a pedicure to which I was told, «Sure, come on in!» Excited, I hurried down the alley and made my way there. The place is clean and nicely decorated. The employees are friendly and attentive.
A huge pet peeve of mine is going into a nail salon and, while trying to relax, hearing nothing but loud voices in another language. Although the women here were speaking another language on occasion, it was at a level barely louder than a whisper. I didn’t get the feeling they were talking about me or any other customers.
Uyen (pronounced Wen) did a wonderful job on my pedicure! I also got the callus remover and paraffin wax for a total of $ 40. She spent a good amount of time massaging my legs and feet and really putting a nice amount of pressure against my muscles. I couldn’t have asked for more. She even let me hang out an extra 5 – 10 minutes after my nails were done to enjoy the massage chair a little longer ;)
I will definitely be a repeat customer!

Bliss is my new favorite nail salon! I’m pretty new to Long Beach and have visited at least 6 nail salons in the last five months trying to find one that provide great service. Unfortunately, none of them were up to par. Then, I found Bliss!
Bliss is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also exudes a warm and friendly feel from the moment you walk in the door.
I was in need of a manicure and pedicure. I scheduled my services with Annie by phone. SHE’S WONDERFUL!!! Annie was very attentive. She asked me my name before she began my pedicure and addressed me by name throughout my services. When I told her that this was my first visit to Bliss, she smiled, welcomed me and said she hoped I would be a regular client. She noticed that I was trying to relax and enjoy my pedicure and asked if she could recline my chair for me. When the chair massager turned off, she promptly turned it back on. My biggest pet peeve with nail artists is that they assume. Annie did not do that. She looked at my poorly filed nails and said, «oh, you like them round.» Finally, someone who didn’t just go to town shaping them into a squared off shape (which I HATE)!
The entire experience was absolutely BLISSful. My nails looked amazing and were shaped to perfection! I was so relaxed that I almost didn’t want to leave. As I prepared to leave, Annie thanked me, presented me with her business card (that had the days and hours she’s available and her cell phone number). Now, that’s quality service!
On the way out I noticed jewelry displayed near the cash wrap. I fell in love with a few of the pieces but decided on a rose gold bracelet. :)
Definitely give Bliss a try. Ask for Annie! You will not be disappointed!

I recently moved to the area and have been looking for a nail salon and spa that is clean and fairly priced. This is it!
Lauren took care of my Brazilian wax, she was excellent. She makes sure you’re very comfortable. It’s also not awkward at all, she’ll talk to you throughout. She takes her time and does a great job.
Akiko took care of my gel manicure. She was also excellent. My nails look great.
I also got a pedicure, not sure of the girls name, but she took her time and did a great job as well. The spa pedicure comes with the massage and hot towel.
The place is very clean and everything was sanitized. I even noticed during my wax, she threw out the stick and used a new one each time she applied wax. The entire staff was very friendly and I didn’t feel rushed at all. Can’t wait to try more of their services!
On Tuesdays & Wednesdays they have a gel manicure special for $ 28. Be sure to call about their summer specials, there were quite a few!

This is my most favorite spa to get a massage or a mani/​pedi.
Whenever I get a pedicure here, I feel as though I’m being transported to an alternate universe of pure relaxation. I swear all of the ladies there give magnificent pedicures. All. Of. Them. They take their time and are extremely thorough.
For gel manis + designs, Sammy is the truth.
I would recommend an appointment because this isn’t a typical nail salon and is more like a mini day spa, so there aren’t a ton of chairs; it can get pretty busy.
The décor is super cute + chic and they have a ton of polish colors to chose from. I’ve been coming here regularly for the last 3 years and I’ve found my one stop shop for relaxation and pampering.
