With three area locations (Beverly Hills, Pasadena, Santa Monica), Olive & June offers mani-pedi obsessives a slew of red-carpet-quality treatments—not only at affordable prices, but also in the comfort of sleek, modern-home surroundings. Even better, ethics are important here: owner Sarah Gibson Tuttle, a former Wall Street trader, recently transitioned her manicurists from freelancers to full-time employees to raise standards across the profession, so expect a modest 10-percent service charge per visit. For tourists, we recommend going all out with the most luxurious service, “The Olive” (manicure: $35; pedicure: $45). It includes nail shaping, cuticle care, exfoliation, and a massage, finishing with either a polish, nourishing treatment, or specialty top coat.
