I love this nail salon.  It's my happy, special place each Saturday.  My nails were a wreck when I sought them out after reading about the salon for years in top beauty magazines.  I was not disappointed.    The manicures are gentle and methodical and the results look like gel and last a solid week plus, if you are careful with your hands.   I literally cannot stand to get a manicure anywhere else now as everyone other place's results are rough,  sloppy and chip within 2-3 days.  If you value quality, go see these ladies!!  I see Erica for manicures and Aliss for pedicures.   Joanna is also excellent for manicures.  No other place compares.

I am suspicious of the reviews that describe this place as relaxing. It is anything BUT relaxing. I got a gel manicure from a sweet girl called Morgan. In the 50 minutes I was with her the receptionist barged over to her three different times trying to hurry her up and asking her if she did nail art and would she take the client who wanted it - in the middle of my manicure. The receptionist does not handle pressure well. She came back two other times with more requests... I was so stressed out by the time I left I know I will never come back. These are very expensive services and there is no offer of a glass of water or a hand massage with the manicure. My nails are so-so. Paint has not chipped off but having carefully selected my color, I ended up with the wrong one. I didn't want to ask for the correct one because I was worried about the manicurist who now had someone pacing the reception area waiting for her. At $45 for the gel manicure plus tip, I expect to leave feeling happy and pampered. Instead, I was frazzled since the receptionist didn't seem to know how to process credit cards. That took an extra ten minutes and I couldn't wait to get out of there by that point. Read Less

Overpriced for what you get. Be aware if you are younger you may feel out of place here. The age of the average customer is well beyond retirement age. This is not a criticism, just describing the type of clinic this is. Read Less

I am SO not impressed.  I went there many years ago and thought they were very pricey plus the "lovely" lady doing my pedicure took one look at my feet and with a thick Eastern European accent said "What, you walk barefoot everywhere?"!   It was summer and my standard shoe is a flip flop and I walk my dogs several times a day so I'm the first to admit my feet aren't soft and pink but, after all, isn't that why I needed a pedicure???   Needless to say I wasn't in any huge rush to return.  Recently however my go-to, fabulous manicurist, left her job to have a baby.  The people in the salon she left aren't that great so I decided to give Jessica another try (mostly because they open at 8am and I had plans at 11am that day).  I won't do that again!When I made my appointment the receptionist told me that Sandy, who comes in at 10am,  is the only person that does a gel manicure but that she'd ask her if she could come in early to accommodate my request and said that she'd call me to confirm the next day.   She didn't call.  I figured that if there had been a problem, she would have so I just went on in for my 8am appointment.  The woman who did my pedicure was very pleasant but she suggested that I have the calluses on my feet burned off with acid!  I promise you I'm not an armadillo and my feet are NOT THAT BAD!  I've had many pedicures in my life and no one has ever sneered at my feet except for these women at Jessica.   I don't know if they're lazy or if they don't know what they're doing.  Or perhaps it's because I'm at least 20 years younger than their average client, obviously more active, and don't get my feet done once a week like the regulars so when they're faced with actual feet that are used they don't know what to do with them.  At least this time though the nice technician did say that I have good toenails.   So by about 830am, Sandy had not appeared and the receptionist said she'd forgotten to call her and asked me if I could wait until 10am when she normally comes in.  I wasn't very happy and when I pointedly looked at my watch she mumbled something and hurried off to call Sandy.  She scurried back a few minutes later and told me that Sandy was getting into an Uber to come in early from K-Town and could I wait a little while longer.   I had plans at 11am and by the time she showed up it was 945am.  She, unlike the other ladies in the salon, was not very pleasant and didn't hesitate to tell me that she'd been woken up to come in early for me.  I'd just like to point out that I don't care who got up early to do what, I do not care that the receptionist is new, AND Sandy only came in 15 minutes earlier than usual!  When I make an appointment I am there early and I expect to be seen on time.  I don't run my business on excuses and for heaven's sake, this is nail salon, not a doctor's office!So, she did my nails with a frown on her face and I was only running about 30 minutes behind when she finished.   I went to check out and the receptionist couldn't figure it out.   She had to run my credit card a couple of times and she couldn't get the printer to print receipts and it shaved another 10 minutes off my morning just trying to pay them.So okay, here I sit, a mere 8 days after my $52.00 manicure and $32.00 pedicure (before tipping, mind you) and my nails are shredding.  I have 5 chipped nails and 4 of those need serious filing and a complete re-do.  I don't know what kind of product they use but it is seriously B-A-D.  I have to find some place that I can get an appointment tonight because of the crappy manicure I got at Jessica.Not happy.....

Great service. Clean, professional, and the nail polish lasts! Everyone is nice and attentive. Easy, free parking across the street. Cash or check paid directly to the technicans (no credit cards).The only draw back is the hours. For those of us that work traditional hours, it's impossible to get in after work because I was told last appointment is 5pm. Read Less

Alice has been doing my manicures for over 2 years.  When I first walked in my nails and cuticles were unsightly.  With a lot of patience and understanding, Alice worked her magic and in no time I saw results.  She is warm, friendly,  gifted and gives THE BEST manicure in town. Read Less

This is hands down the best nail salon in Los Angeles for a manicure. It's so good I almost don't want to write this review, because if you've lived in LA long enough and you're a woman you've probably already been here at some point over the years...or your mom's chic friend who always looked impeccable had a standing appointment every week at Jessica. It's that kind of place, it's old school and these woman know what they are doing. I'm going to leave it at that. I have a woman here I go to who is top notch in my book but I'm going to keep her to myself! sorry... Read Less

I heard good things about this place and the fact that people keep standing appointments for decades was a good sign. The women all wear white lab coats and seem highly trained! They are very professional and slightly more than what I'm used to paying in NYC which would be fine if they did a spectacular job but the real bummer is that it was on the average to bad side. The technician painted "outside the lines" on my pedicure which was super weird. Glad other people seem to like it but the work seemed pretty sloppy at best. Read Less

Love. This. Place. I'm from New York and just happened to fall into this place during a visit. The women here are true professionals. One of the best mani/pedis of my life. Anne for the mani, Koca (Katerina) for the pedi. Simple, relaxed, friendly, efficient (mani/pedi at same time). I can't say enough about this place. Thank you Jessica's!! Read Less

Been to many nail salons but Jessica's is at a different level. I highly recommend Aida for a manicure as you will get First class service. The manicure she did lasted almost 3 weeks and her friendly and welcoming attitude is amazing. Definitely my new go to place. Read Less

Joanna and Micky are the best. Always get great service and the mani's last at least a full week!  I love that they do naturalnails and they are skilled at their craft. I've been a regular for about a year, my nails are healthy and strong and I get regular compliments. Highly recommend this establishment. Free parking is a bonus! Read Less

My 1st visit today. Goodbye - old nail salons. Jessica's rules. The ladies are wonderful there and they listen to you! The ladies who worked on my mani-pedi had been there 40 years and were true professionals. Fabulous mani-pedi in a relaxed environment and fabulous locale that just happens to be 2 mins. from my home - not to mention free parking!!!  My new place!!!! Thank you, Jessica's Nail Clinic! Read Less

This is a world class mani pedi in a relaxed environment. It's not Mars, but it's a step up from Planet Nails and 10 steps up from your average walk-in place. It's immaculate clean and the technicians are highly trained and are real nail experts. Jessica is a true entrepreneur and it's the best mani pedi I've ever had, outside of Mars and I'd say it's equal as far as quality of the job. Mars is a little nicer atmosphere-wise, but I think I prefer the Jessica technicians. An appointment is almost always needed so call ahead.Bravo. A+! Read Less

If Steel Magnolias was set in a nail salon off the Sunset Strip, it would be Jessica's. This salon has a cozy, house-like atmosphere and caters to a monied, older women who have probably been regulars for the past 20-something years. (Sitting next to me was a 60-something, blonde, British woman decked out in some serious bling.) Jessica's only uses their own eponymous polishes + tool line, and the woman who did my nails was super-sweet and spent a full 60 minutes on my manicure. They definitely don't rush through their work here, and the manicure lasted much longer (over a week and a half) without any major chipping.Also, all of the nail technicians here are independent contractors who rent out their chairs from the salon's owner, so that's why it's cash or check only. Read Less

THE BEST THE BEST THE BESTReally truly what more can I say? I have my regular 2wk app here now, I am totally addicted, please don't worry about the high price tag, its worth every penny, no chipping, their polish is amazing, and the older ladies are a hoot. I am always made feel super special every time I come here. Its old hollywood at its finest! Read Less

One of those places you want to keep a secret because it's hard enough to get in there at the time you want (unless you book in advance).  This isn't the pedicure you get from the Asian nail place.  These ladies take their time and take good care of your feet.  Also, no nail art here!  Definitely a more upscale, pleasant experience. For $32 for a pedicure, I'll take it.Oh, and it definitely makes me happy when I see "Jessica" all over the place.  Oh, the little things in life that excite you... ;) Read Less

I arrived an hour and a half early for a meeting in West Hollywood last week when I realized that I needed an urgent manicure.  I normally get my nails done close to home so this was the first time walking into Jessica's Nail Clinic on Sunset.  I got myself a mani/pedi, and I must say that it was hands down... the best mani/pedi of my life!  My heels can get quite rough, especially in summer because of wearing sandals and flip-flops but after this thorough pedicure my heels were as smooth and as soft as a baby's bottom!I am in Hollywood at least once a month for business and so I am making Jessica's Nail Clinic my regular nail salon.  If you are in the area, do yourself a favor and get a mani/pedi from Jessica's.  Your fingers and toes will thank you.  Remember to bring cash or check because they don't take credit cards. Read Less

I did not know what I was getting myself into when I called Jessica's to see if there was a last minute cancellation. My normal spot was full and I didn't feel like waiting so I remembered Jessica's was nearby and appointment only and gave them a rang. This is not your run of the mill mani/pedi place. These women are professionals and have been working at Jessica's for 30 years. I was wearing gels when I went in... Big mistake. They looked at my fingers like there was poison on them. They don't do gels there and it doesn't seem like they need to with their manicures lasting for 7-10 days. The place was full of women that I know were "regulars." They all new the ladies by name. I will say they did a great job and really took their time. It was not as expensive as I thought it was going to be. The manicure was $30 and the pedicure was $32. So now I'll just have to see how well they last! They only take cash or checks, (thank god I had my checkbook on me) which was a bit of a throwback. If this mani lasts me a whole week, I'll definitely be back. Read Less

I have been going to Jessica's for the last 15 years and never had a bad manicure or pedicure. It is clean, the staff is friendly, and parking is convenient (and free). For everyone that has a problem with a $30 manicure, I say, what kind of service did you get at one of those ""discount"" nail salons? soozyB Read Less

I have been getting manicures since I was about 15 (now 44) and I have literally been to some of the best spas in the world. Paris, London, Italy and my FAVORITE is Jessica Nail Salon. Not only is the salon clean (has anyone been to Kim's Nails lately) but the staff is marvelous! Maria, Stephanie, Helen, Tanya...the list goes on and on of wonderful people that I look forward to seeing every time I go there, which is every two weeks. I have NEVER had a bad experience there and I have turned many people on to this lovely spa. For anyone that likes a truly wonderful, high-quality manicure/pedicure and is willing to spend $30/$32, this is your spa! Hopefully you won't mind sitting next to Demi, Nancy Reagan, Jody Foster or any of the other dozens of celebs that call Jessica's their favorite salon too. Read Less

I have tried many nail salons and nothing even comes close to Jessica Nail Clinic. Helen is my favorite for a manicure and Maria for a pedicure. They are not only professional, but so nice. They always make you feel like you are family and the manicures last for at least a week and pedicures for three. These women are the best! Read Less

I have been going to Jessica Nail Clinic for over 10 years and am never disappointed. Helen, Maria and Aura are wonderful at what they do. Its a comfortable salon and parking is easy -- which is a plus. Its clean, professional and the manicures and pedicures actually LAST. Read Less

I decided to check out Jessica's Nail Clinic one day because I was short on time and it was really close to my house. I didn't have an appointment, and when I told the receptionist she was really snooty. After waiting fifteen minutes, I finally sat down in an uncomfortable chair in a busy room. The manicurist told me that I had really bad cuticles and weak nails, and that she would ""see what she could do."" The pedicurist refused to use my favorite Chanel nail polish that I always use and said that it was ""bad quality."" The closest color she had was an awul pinky-orange color, and she didn't even ask for my approval before putting it on. When it was time to pay, they told me that it would be $30 for the manicure and $32 for the pedicure, and then asked if I was paying with cash or check. I told them I only had a credit card, at which point I had to run to the nearest ATM a block away. My nails turned out okay, definitely not great. I will never go to Jessica's Nail Clinic again, no matter how close it is. Read Less

$30 mani; $32 pedi. seriously obnoxious staff. no UV or other sterilizing facilites anywhere in sight. no drying capability and no invitation to wait a bit since i hadn't thought to bring open-toed shoes. they literally threw me out. business hours are completely useless for anyone who works. i was criticized for the length i prefer my nails. the woman who did my pedicure painted more of my toes than the nails. my mani-pedi was more of an arm-leg massage than the service i wanted; i'd prefer to make other arrangements for both my massages and my nail care. so should you. Read Less

this was the best and most relaxing manicure and pedicure i have ever had. the technicians were very knowledgeable and kind. they were actually a few minutes early. i really enjoyed both my services. i highly reccommend this salon, and its sister salon, Jessica from Sunset in the Larchmont Village. the prices were very fair and i have been a regular ever since. very sanitary.
