Yes, you can walk in. Nail Garden welcomes walk-ins at our Studio City and Sherman Oaks salons whenever a nail technician is free. Booking ahead is still the best way to get the time and technician you want, especially on evenings and weekends.

Walk in or book ahead?
| What you want | Our advice |
|---|---|
| Polish change or a simple manicure | Walking in usually works |
| Spa manicure or pedicure | Walk in if you're flexible on time, or book to be sure |
| Gel-X, builder gel, acrylic or a Russian manicure | Book ahead. These take longer and need a technician for the full appointment |
| Friday or Saturday evening, or anytime Sunday | Book ahead. These are our busiest times |
| A group, a party or a special occasion | Book ahead through our group bookings page |
How to avoid a wait
- Call from the car. A quick call to the salon tells you whether a technician is free right now.
- Come on a weekday. Weekday mornings and early afternoons are usually quieter than evenings and weekends.
- Book online for the time you want. Online booking takes you straight to the salon you choose and lets you pick your time.
- Tell us what you want when you arrive. If you're after a set with nail art or extensions, let the front desk know so they can give you an honest wait time.
