So, I’m getting my nails filled with a pedicure at this place, sitting in spa chair. The massage function works too well. It is pounding on my back… which feels great, but its making my boobs giggle. Highly inappropriate because I am wearing a tank top with my boobs hanging out. the men working here are staring, and the women are giggling. I’d youtube this, but I think I’m going to avoid causing more attention coming my way.

Besides the massage spa chair… this place is kinda cute. Matching decor – definitely not ghetto like some of the other nail salons in Long Beach…

This was my second visit to King Nails, and this time, as well as last, there was a crazy white woman complaining about her acrylics. This obviously leaves me very hesistant to get the fill… but I did. Anyhow, I got a pink-and-white fill with a solid color pedicure. The fill, I was not too thrilled with. I asked if they had pink glitter powder, and they said yes. I even showed them the set I had on and asked specifically if the powder was the same… it wasn’t. In a dyer need of a fill, I took what they had to offer. The guy who did my fill didn’t do a fantastic job either. It’s been 3 days, and I already see a sign of lifting. Brighter note, my nails are at the length that I like: SHORT. The pedicure was mediocre. The massage wasn’t that great… and they only offer spa pedicures… not worth the extra $ if you ask me.

Plus side:
1) Easy street parking (& the meter maids never come by – so no sense in feeding it)
2) Employees are friendly.
3) Walk-ins welcome, and it’s never busy.

Down side:
1) Employees understanding of English is very limited.
2) There’s always one crazy white woman complaining and causing a scene.
3) The work is okay. It’s not bad, but if I had a choice of going somewhere better, I would.
