Passion Nail Salon

I love passion nails! They’re prices reflect the quality. They can get very busy so make sure to make an appointment or come at a non prime time hour. I had Anthony for my last visit and he was very good as well as friendly.

The best. I’ve been coming here for years and only go elsewhere if I’m out of town and have no choice

This review is solely based on Evon, who was not only a wonderful technician but sweet, personable, and warm. Make an appointment with her and you won’t be sorry!

I have been coming to this place for years. It’s conveniently located and they do a decent job. Here are some pointers:
— They only accept cash tips. Yes. Annoying. If you don’t have the cash tip, they look extremely irritated and will probably talk smack about you in their language. As do all nail technicians at all nail salons.
–They will ask you to write a check out to ‘cash’. Do it if you want… But basically you’re paying them under the table.
— If you’re getting gels, you pay after the service. If you’re getting regular nail polish, you pay before so that you don’t ruin your nails getting out your wallet from your purse.
–I’ve seen them work with kids and they’re very sweet to them.
–I’ve never had a wax there. I would save that for a legitimate spa.
–Parking is usually easy.
— As far as I have seen, they are very sanitary.
I know people who have scratched this place off due to their attitude when it comes to paying them. I have just accepted that it must be a cultural thing and just don’t be surprised when they look upset when you pay them with a credit card. My nails still look great.

It makes me sad to have to give this salon a bad review. I’ve been a regular customer for 15 years. The technicians who work here are wonderful. But I have a problem with the owners, Tony and Candy.
I’m a very easy going client. Friendly. Not very picky.
I usually ask for my favorite technicians, Lynn and Paula, not because they’re better than the others, just because I’ve know them for so long. Anyway, I’ve overlooked Candy’s consistent brusqueness – bordering on rudeness – over the years, figuring it was just her way. Tony has always been welcoming. Until the other day.
I thought I had scheduled a brow wax with Lynne. I had made the appt for my usual mani/​pedi and brow wax that morning speaking to Tony himself. But I guess he didn’t hear the waxing part, because in the afternoon after my mani/​pedi, when I said I had a brow wax with Lynn. Tony said I didn’t. I wasn’t upset, just confused. Then he raised his voice to me in front of the entire salon (which was filled with people) admonishing me to «Be clear!» When I reminded him about my appt he shouted «I don’t know who you spoke to!» I replied, «I spoke to you.» I was blown away. Shocked. Humiliated. Angry. I would have walked out right then but I’d already paid for the wax and I wasn’t sure what was the most elegant response, to ask for my money back? To storm out?
I let a few a moments pass, then took Tony aside and reminded him (in a low voice) that I’d been a loyal customer for 15 years and that he should not speak to me that way (of course he shouldn’t speak to anyone that way). Instead of apologizing he started YELLING at me. I said, again, in a low voice «You’ve just lost a customer.» He said,” Fine. Lynne will be in in two minutes to do your waxing.“
I went into the waxing room to regain my composure and to have a chance to say goodbye to Lynn. She did the service while wiping tears from my eyes.
Needless to say I will never return to Passion Nails.
In summary, they do very good work here. But I can’t support abusive behavior of myself or anyone else. If Tony treated me this wrongfully, I fear for how he treats his employees.
There are several other salons in the area. Sadly, I will find another place to bring my business.

First time at this place. Called made appointment for pedicure. Friendly on time. When got there was asked if spa or regular. I said regular which I think means you don’t get to sit on massage chair (which I don’t care for). Thought the nail polish selection was poor and disorganized. Out of there in 20 minutes. Overpriced for what I got.

I’m torn between liking this place and not…
Looks pretty nice, clean, and like a relaxing environment.
I had an appointment (although walk ins are welcome) and still had to wait about 15 minutes before getting started, even though there were only about four people in the salon.
I got a gel manicure and a regular pedicure. The woman who did my pedi was very sweet, the one who did my gels was pretty quiet.
Now, I’m new to the whole «getting my nails done» routine, so take everything I say with a grain of salt. I really only have one other experience to compare this to…
When I got gels before at a different location they put sunblock on my hands because of the UV process. They did not do that here. A lot of the process seemed… uneven. Like they would soak one hand for 5 minutes and the other one for 10 seconds. They would UV one hand for 2 cycles and the other hand for only 1. The white polish has streaks in it from the brush and looks a little sloppy on the edges. I hate my pedicure color, and there are spots of polish on my feet.
That being said, I don’t get my nails done often, and despite everything said above, overall they look very nice and I’m pleased. I would have preferred to change my pedi color but I’m unsure of «salon etiquette» and if it’s appropriate for me to ask them to change it.
I paid $ 61 for gel french mani and regular pedi (tip included (cash only tips!!)) and it took about an hour and a half. I will probably explore other salons but un

I came across this place 4 years ago looking for a nail salon that is open Sunday’s (because that was my only off day) to my surprise they had top of the line polish, and I can honestly say every single nail tech is pretty good. My nails always look amazing and they are always available to take me when I arrive.

First time here. Got the spa mani/​pedi. I choose to pay the extra $ 5 to have my finger nails buffed to shine (which is ridiculous because they use the time they would have used to paint and don’t have to use any product). My pedicure was fine, not great but fine. When my nails were done I looked at my fingers and there was still dirt under all of my nails! Seriously? Not only did I pay extra to have natural nails but she couldn’t get the dirt out?!? What did I just pay for? Just imagine the women that get polish, they can’t even see the dirt left behind by this place. Definitely over priced and not worth it, waste of time. for this quality you would do better to stay home and do your own nails! They get 3 stars instead of 1 because of the pedicure.

I’ve been getting my nails done at Passion Nail Salon for a little over 15 years, from the time I was in the 6^th grade and living in Woodland Hills (I use to walk there from my house a couple blocks away), until now and I live and work in Westlake Village. Genuinely, Tony and Candy are the best. They’re friendly, hardworking people who always provided such amazing customer service. They know their frequent customers by first name, and the salon is really nice, clean, and spacious. 15 years and counting, and I’ve never left unhappy. The first five years as a customer, Candy did my acrylics (she does the best job in my opinion, always so natural looking). Then I switched to getting just regular manicures with Tony, and for the last few years he’s done my gel manicures. He’s the BEST at gel manicures! When it comes to my nails, I’m definitely probably one of the pickiest out there. I wouldn’t commute from Westlake Village straight after work during rush-​hour for nothing.

The best! I’ve been going here for nails for many years and it is the best. Always happy with my nails.

Talk about excellent customer service. Amazing.
I googled salons in my area. I knew exactly where this one was. I called them at 4:45, and asked what time they close. I asked if I could come in and get a set of acrylic nails. Come in 15 minutes she said.
Great parking.
Beautiful Salon. Clean and classy. Anthony took me right away. He was very polite, said very little, did not sit on the phone or do 10 other things while doing my nails.
He sat there diligently and did a super job.
I was out in about 45 minutes.
This will be my salon. I will bring my mother and grandpa here from now on.
Thank you Passion Nail Salon.
Excellent

Passion Nails has changed their Business from taking time to thinking of the mighty dollar! The passion has affected the Quality of their work, I was a customer for many years and felt the owners Candy and Tony were very nice to work with, until they decided to walk around with a chip on their shoulder, not appreciating the customers giving them their business, They came to this country to make a better life maybe they need to realize there are a lot more nail places that do a better job!

Love love love this place. Been coming here for years. So nice to be greeted by name! Thanks, Tony and Candy!

I had little expectation when I arrived. I’ve been attending another nail salon where I have a technician I’ve used for many years because of her attention to detail & meticulous work. I came here on a whim as my girl wasn’t available and this location was close to my home. I called right before I came in informing them that I couldn’t wait if I did arrive immediately so I asked if they had someone to accommodate me which they said they did.
When I arrives and first walked in I was a bit apprehensive and it felt chaotic and when I sat down it took a few minutes till someone attended to me despite my call ahead of told explaining the situation.
Regardless I waited and was expecting the worse but was more than pleasantly surprised at how perfect my nails turned out! I had a gel manicure & pedicure done by Candy & Tina– I highly recommend either of them for their attention to detail & quick/​efficient work!
I will definitely return to this salon! There were a lot of people waiting so I highly suggest making an appointment prior although I called 5 minutes before arriving on a Saturday and it worked out.

Had my acrylics taken off by Karen today and she did an amazing job saving my natural nails! «Thu» did my pedicure and I’m super happy with that too! I’ll be back!

I always get my toes done here, and get the whole treatment (callus removal, exfoliating mask, paraffin, and extra massage). I love this place! They are very professional, create a quiet and relaxing environment (except when customers are inconsiderate and talk on their phones), and offer quality services. I am kind of weird and usually don’t go to the same place twice (commitment issues I guess), but I have now loyally gone to passion nails for the last 8 or more months. I definitely recommend it!
But, they are very busy on the weekends, so I would recommend calling for an appointment rather then just showing up.

I’ve been going to Passion Nails for about 2 years now and I am definitely a fan. I tried so many local places before finally trying Passions and I just love their plush chairs that are so comfy. I know many nail salons have the massaging chairs (and they have them here also) but I find them more annoying than relaxing so it’s nice to get a great pedicure while nestled in an oversized plush recliner. I usually only get manicures but recently tried gel nails and I’m kinda addicted. I’ve tried a lot of the techs there, but Christy is by far my favorite. I’ve even started just making appointments with her. If you’re looking for a low key place to get a good mani/​pedi, check out Passion Nails!
One tip! Be sure to take cash to tip!

On my quest to find a new nail salon in my neighborhood I headed into Passion Nail Salon. They are friendly and the place is clean, but they are still fairly expensive boasting Pedicures @ $ 17 and manicures @ $ 16 with a small break if you get both. Of course spa pedicures are more. Their gel manicures seemed reasonable @ $ 35.

I went to Passion Nail this weekend because my girlfriend was treating me for my bday. I picked it because it was close to where I was staying.
The people there seemed nice and they were able to fit us in right away which was great because I was due into work in about an hr and a half. Their message chairs for Pedi’s were clean and nice and did the job, but I have to say, the people who do the pedi and mani’s either don’t know what they are doing or they just don’t do a good job. I have been to many salons and I have to say this place is my second to least favorite place ever. I know better than trying new places, but I needed to find something close and somewhere that could take us in right away.
So again, either they don’t know what they are doing or their nail polish is old and need to be replaced. But its more than the fact that my nails were not fully coated. I told them that I thought I could see through the polish but they insisted that it was the lighting. It was the bad job she did and the terrible nail polish she used. She also clipped and filed my nail completely crooked. I had to make her do it over and she just could not see it. It was frustrating…
The person who did my nails didn’t do a very good job either. My nails were a bit crooked and there are cuticles that should have been taken off better and my nails could have been filed evenly and in the right places. But she did give me a killer arm/​hand massage, but no foot/​leg message at all? Everywhere I go at least does that for a little bit… I know for sure I will never be back here, but I guess people who don’t normally pamper themselves will not know the difference. That’s too bad because this place is in a convenient location for a lot of people in that area.
