The Basic Nail Shoppe - Pasadena (CA)

5 /5 Athena Garcia-Gunn: This shop is adorable! It’s brand new. Everything inside is new. The paint, the chairs, the stations, the products. It’s all chic, and simple and classic. The ladies here have been so sweet, so ready to jump in and take on a challenge. They also have a reward system that gives you a birthday discount and points. Highly recommend! It’s the kind of place that I expect will get very popular soon. I have dropped by twice, both times I was asked if I had an appointment. I think they prefer appointments! But they still took me in and helped me quickly. They also offered me water, and a beverage. They are very hospitable and talented.

5 /5 Denise McKnight: I was greeted warmly. Offered cold water. The service was fast and completed with neatness. The technician was polite and friendly. I can not wait to return. She kept the shape of my natural nail. She did not try to pressure me to get more expensive services. And the shop was not overcrowded and did not feel like a farm. The salon was so clean and smelled like a spa, similar to an experience I had in Palm Desert.

5 /5 Devon Myers: This place is fantastic! It’s clean, spacious, and well organized. More importantly, I got the best pedicure - by Chi. And Ann did a beautiful job on my nails. I don’t live close but may have to drive to come here - they are really excellent.

5 /5 Val: This is one of the best nail salons that I have ever been to. I went at 5pm on a Saturday and it wasnt crowded. The location is perfect as it is next to a lot of stores. I was sat down within 5 minutes. I went for a gel pedicure and paid $55 in total which is average for a gel pedicure. The color options they have are so beautiful. Chi did my pedicure and she was so sweet and made my day 1000% better. Will definitely recommend and will be coming back when I am in the area.

5 /5 Beth Imai: I’m so happy I found this gem of a nail salon. The location is easy with a huge parking lot, the inside is clean (looks brand new) with state of the art massage chairs and stations. My nail tech, Zen, was a real sweetheart. She is clearly loved by all the staff and she did a fantastic job on my nails. Thanks again!
