About

Modern Nails and Spa is a nail salon and spa in Whittier, California. The menu runs from classic and deluxe manicures and pedicures to artificial nails, including dipping powder, acrylic and Gel X extensions. There are also services for children aged 9 and under and waxing for eyebrows, lip, chin and underarms.

The manicures and pedicures are offered in tiers. The Classic Manicure covers shaping, cuticle work, buffing, a lotion massage and regular polish. The Gel Manicure adds gel polish to that base, and the Deluxe Manicure adds a hot towel, a 10-minute paraffin treatment and a massage. The Express Pedicure is the base pedicure, and the Classic, Deluxe and Royal Pedicures build on it with callus treatment, sugar scrub, cooling gel, a mask, paraffin, massage and hot stone massage, depending on the level chosen.

Add-ons include gel or regular color changes, French on natural nails, shiny buffing, extra massage time at $1 per minute, cuticle tidy up, nail repair and gel removal with foil. The salon also offers dipping powder, acrylic and Gel X services, including fills, take-offs and cuticle trimming. Prices for the short-square shape may be higher for other lengths and shapes, so clients can ask their technician about options.

The salon is open Monday to Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM, Saturday from 9 AM to 6 PM and Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM. The phone number is 562-946-1396.

Tools are sterilized and disinfected after each use, buffers and files are used once and discarded, and all pedicures are done with liner protection. Staff follow a sanitation protocol that puts client hygiene first, and the salon says its focus is client safety, needs and satisfaction.

The salon describes its atmosphere as relaxing and enjoyable.
