So, instead of picking at random, we’ve asked our nearest and dearest to share their favorite mani/pedi depots to get a perfect ten all over L.A. From the ultimate Calgel resource to radical nail art, to the most luxe treatment for your hands and feet, we’ve singled out the top ten nail salons a SoCal girl can book now.
