Lucien nail spa 2

Nail salon

Nestled in the Baseline Road shopping corridor of Rialto, Lucien Nail & Spa has been quietly carving out a reputation since at least 2018 (based on local listings) as a destination for polished nail care and more intricate artistry. What began as a standard mani-pedicure stop has expanded into a full-service salon, drawing local families, young professionals and trend-savvy clients from nearby Fontana and beyond.

Lucien Nail & Spa offers the full manicure and pedicure menu—classic polish, gel overlays and acrylic enhancements—but it’s their elevated spa treatments that make them stand out. Their Instagram reels show steam and collagen pedicures, 3-D nail art (gold accents, tiger print) and premium brands like OPI and CND Plexus being used. They also offer waxing and kid-friendly services, reflecting a broader family-friendly appeal. One reviewer on Yelp flagged “over 1,100 photos” of client finishes, which suggests a high volume of creative work.

The salon projects a clean, modern yet approachable vibe—bright lighting, comfortable chairs and a booking system that allows both walk-ins and online reservations (via Instagram prompts). Recent customer feedback emphasizes that the team “actually listens to what clients want”—for example, when switching shapes from square to almond or incorporating micro-marble trends for 2024-25. Sanitation seems well attended: liners in pedicure basins, disposable files, and visible licensing posted behind the reception. The busiest window tends to be Saturday late mornings and early afternoons, while mid-week afternoons appear quieter and more relaxed.

Lucien Nail & Spa keeps its local edge by engaging on social media (its Instagram @lucien_nailspa shows giveaways, seasonal colour launches and a “Labubu Raffle” event). Customers in Rialto neighbourhood Facebook groups highlight staff like “Ashley” for high-detail custom art. The salon has also embraced post-pandemic improvements—touchless payments, UV sterilised shelving and online booking added in 2024. One practical note: while the artistic side is strong, some reviews mention waiting times when large design projects are underway—so clients with complex art should specify “design set” at booking.
