About Contempo Nails & Spa
Contempo Nails & Spa is a nail salon on Imperial Hwy. in Inglewood, taking walk-ins rather than scheduled appointments. Gel manicures and gel pedicures are offered alongside nail fill services with nail art, and tools used on feet are sanitized between clients. The salon also provides facial threading, extending its services beyond nails for those seeking both in one visit. It opens daily, giving walk-in customers a consistent window to stop in throughout the week without needing to plan around limited days.

Customer Review Summary
Gel manicures and pedicures form the throughline of feedback here, with several reviewers praising the quality and calling the pricing great, and long-time patrons describing the shop as clean, odor-free, and consistent over the years. One reviewer highlights a "cat eye" manicure attempt that instead left a cut on the cuticle, and another describes gel polish peeling within a week and a pedicure that bubbled just days after service. A few reviews raise sharper complaints: one describes being overcharged by a manicurist who took a larger cash payment than the service required, another reports aggressive filing that injured the skin around the nails, and one felt rushed through "like cattle" and dismissed after voicing dissatisfaction. Against that, other visitors note the tools are sanitized before pedicures and single out favorite technicians by role, praising freestyle nail art and facial threading. The pattern splits between loyal regulars who return repeatedly and newer visitors reporting inconsistent technique or unresolved complaints on the same visit.

“I had a very concerning experience with Contempo Nail shop. I gave the manicurist Peter $100 for a $57 service which was supposed to be for a gel manicure and pedicure, after handing the money to Peter the manicurist I sat in the chair …”

“This place is horrible. They move you through like cattle, trying to get you done as quickly as possible. I paid too much money to walk out as unsatisfied as I did. When I mentioned it they dismissed me. Will never return.”

“Was impressed the first time I went and got a gel pedicure but now after getting a gel manicure and pedicure, it only lasted 1 full week. My nails are ruined (started peeling Monday) and I got them done on Jul 5th. This is ridiculous. My gel pedicure had bubbles almost two days later. SMH. Very great pricing but unfortunately the work is inconsistent.”

“Henry does my nails & his mother Mimi does my feet. I leave out very satisfied every time. I pick a color or colors & let him freestyle whatever he feels to do. I love his work.”

“I been coming here since I moved to this city a few months ago looking for a new place is difficult to find a good spot I noticed they do sanitize the tools they use for your feet which is good. New …”
