    My first time here and I think I've found my forever spot!! I rarely get my nails done and wanted to try Gel X for the first time and I'm so glad I came here. I did a walk in on a Monday and told me the wait would be 45 minutes because they had an appointment scheduled and there was only one nail tech. Turns out the wait was actually an hour and 15 minutes but they made up for it with the service + $5 off for the inconvenience at the end. Sandy was my nail tech and she took her time with my nails making sure I liked the shape, (I'm very picky) the color, design, etc. I ended up staying after closing and didn't feel like she was trying to rush or anything. I've had them on for more than a week now and they are still in perfect condition. It cost about $100 so def on the pricier side but I don't mind paying for great nail care and plus you get a cute goodie bag at the end!

    Messy nails, not well trimmed cuticles, not almond shaped

    Scheduled a mani and pedi for myself and Keiki mani and Keiki pedi for a fun mothers daughter date night. My nails did not come out well at all. For $68 before tip for my mani/pedi I would have expected a cleaner better job. My nails were not filed in an almond shape as requested, they were rough, and the paint job was quite messy. Maybe Yoona was tired when she got time to do my nails. My daughters looked really neat and clean and only took 10 minutes. We were there for two hours and I will not be going back.

    Esther ate!! She is so meticulous, I really appreciated her attention to detail. I am graduating on Friday and wanted black and pearls to match my outfit. It came out perfect!! I highly recommend this place! She didn't speak English but another staff helped translate whenever necessary. Also the parking lot is tiny so limited parking depending on what time you go. I will be back for sure ^^

    Stopped in today for the first time. Lucy helped me. A basic pedicure is $34 which is pretty average. The deluxe was $46 which I found a little pricey. Lucy did an amazing job. I didn't like the color I chose so she changed it. The salon was clean and everyone was very nice. The Hawaiian decor is fun. I'll definitely be back.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Had the best experience at Aloha Nail Spa! They're new and don't have many stations yet, but I'm sure they'll be busy very soon because everything was wonderful. The space is cozy and comfortable, the manicure stations are set up perfectly, and Sandy is such a perfectionist -- which I really appreciate! I also got a cute Appreciation Gift' with cuticle oil and hand lotion, that little touch was so nice! Thank you so much for the amazing experience!

    Aloha Nail Spa is a new studio, across the street from Cafe Rio (near Aldi). There's some easy parking available in the plaza or on the street within a 1 minute walk. I booked a same-day gel pedi on Vagaro. They have a great polish selection, super clean space, & they use bowl liners (a huge plus for me). The staff were welcoming & my tech was quick, careful & did a beautiful cat-eye color. Very fair & reasonable prices, especially for the quality. Plus, they provided me w/ a mini nail care kit + stamp card at the end. Definitely my new go-to spot for pedis!

    I booked a last minute appointment and they were still able to accommodate me without any issues. The service was prompt, professional, and exactly what I needed. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and I really appreciated how efficiently they handled my request on such short notice. Thank you for delivering great service. I would definitely recommend them to others! Love the vibes of the nail salon too

    Regular polish manicure
    Melody L.

    Best new nail salon in Tustin! The salon is very clean and well organized. I received a regular polish manicure and was pleased with the results. The technician was highly skilled and did my nails quickly. I would highly recommend for anyone willing to pay a little extra for excellent service and beautiful nails. They even gifted a complimentary nail kit for their store opening. I will definitely be back.

    Price cost... ridiculous, for gems on one finger 25 dollars.

    I had the opportunity to speak with the owner, Sarah, following my initial Yelp review, and I want to acknowledge that she approached the situation with professionalism and a genuine effort to resolve it. She took the time to listen, began correcting misleading pricing online, and addressed how services and add-ons should be more clearly communicated moving forward. That level of accountability was appreciated. Unfortunately, my follow-up experience did not reflect the same standard. When I returned to collect my refund, I was assisted by Camille, who initially offered an apology--which I appreciated. However, it was quickly followed by explanations that minimized the behavior rather than simply taking accountability. An apology tends to lose its value when it is immediately reframed. For context, I came in after working a 17.5-hour shift while fasting, hoping for a straightforward and efficient service so I could break my fast. I understand that everyone has long days, but professionalism--especially in customer-facing roles--is not situational. What became more concerning was the repeated pressure to update my Yelp review after receiving a refund. I was contacted multiple times, including during Eid and New Year's. Respectfully, most people are not checking their phones or writing reviews during their holidays--just as I would not expect anyone here to be updating Yelp on Christmas or New Year's. At that point, the follow-ups felt less like customer care and more like an attempt to manage optics. Additionally, I later noticed a comment from a private or anonymous account referencing details about my refund--information that was only known to a very limited number of staff present at the time. While I will not speculate, it does raise reasonable questions about professionalism and discretion behind the scenes. To Camille and Sandy: I ain't stupid--I am a bitch and you messed with the wrong one. Which is why I am calling you out by name. To be clear, I recognize and appreciate the owner's effort to address the issue. However, consistency across all staff is what ultimately defines a business. Professionalism cannot exist only at the management level--it has to carry through every interaction. I hope this feedback is taken constructively. There is clear potential here, but also a clear need for stronger alignment in communication, accountability, and respect for customers' time and boundaries.

    So happy I came back! Quality and service from both the owners and the technicians was amazing

    I got my nails done today, and I love it! A friend recommended this place to me; they did a very meticulous job. It's definitely worth a try

While the price is affordable, I will not come back due to sanitary issues & incorrect methods they use. We made appts for 12 pm and my nails were not started until 12:45 pm. My nail tech (Michelle) was very nice and she does nails well, however, she used the nail grinder tool to clean my cuticles. My cuticles HURT for hours after my nails were done and weeks after the appt, I still have cut up cuticles and scabbing from the blood (pictures attached). I wish I had known in the moment that this method is not okay; it should have been a cuticle cutter. Once I got to my car and quickly googled that I found: Grinders are made for shaping hard artificial or natural nail surfaces, not living skin. Using a high-speed rotating bit on the delicate cuticle and the nail bed can easily cause painful skin tears, deep friction burns, and severe infections. These aren't correct practices used by this salon; they are taking the easy route to get it done quickly. Would not recommend. I would give them 1 star but Yelp removes those reviews easily so that's why I'm putting 2-stars.

Here for a long time this is probably the worst shaping I've ever gotten here. I could have done my own shaping better than that at home. Just ridiculous *** it was around 5-7 weeks since my last pedicure so my toes were not "really short" besides the big toe that broke. I added another picture to show that she was filing into my toe nails after cutting them super short as short as she could get them and made half of them round and tiny. She also cut the sides of the nails which you aren't supposed to do due to infection and hang nails. I asked her not to do this. there was no reason for her to cut the sides of my nails on one foot and not the other leaving with me with uneven toes. I appreciate the response but I feel that there should be an attempt to fix the situation instead of making excuses or insinuating that I'm making this up.
