I've been going here for a few years now and the service is always impeccable. I'm pretty picky with my nails so it definitely took me a while to find this little gem of a place. Highly recommend if you're looking for a salon that can deliver on service and quality consistently. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's also really nice to chit chat with the staff here. Everyone is always so nice and welcoming[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My first time at Bee Shine and they made a good impression. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I booked my appointment online, pretty easy process, charges were clear and reasonable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was helped by Don. He was great, gentle, and precise. I got dip powder with French Manicure. I really like it so far. The establishment is clean, hip and seems fairly new. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very friendly staff. I was offered water, and small talk[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Definitely recommend trying them. read more

I always come to Bee Shine whenever im in the area and they "nail" it every time LOL. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did a walk-in and they did their best to squeeze me in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mindy did such a great job. Super time efficient and still came out immaculate. So far all places that ive been to have filed my nails aggressively to shape it almond regardless of what i asked for (?). But Mindy looked at my nails, seeing that my nail beds grow STRAIGHT OUT, NATURALLY. So there's no point to shape file it. she agrees and follows my nail shape. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She is one of the rare ones that still do this now. Which i appreciate and def ask for her specifically if you look for a natural nail shape look.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And she also picked out THE BEST natural nail matching color. Highly recommend Mindy and Bee Shine :) read more

Bee Shine Nail Bar - Nail Technicians Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

Decent service but added an extra charge without telling me. Came for just gel-x removal but total came out to $35! Saw that they added some extra service I didn't agree to when I explicitly said I just wanted a removal! Did not have AC when I came too. Overall will not be coming back. Update: I did not get a full manicure after because I just wanted my nails removed. I did not agree because I did not want an additional charge. read more

Had my nails and toes done with my mom and the cost was outrageous! We've never paid more than 150-200 for the both of us before. We paid $ 285.00 Unbelievable [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lady was nice though at least[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] ‍ read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Not the best customer service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Felt more stressed than relaxed during mani/pedi.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to request a different nail lady because the one starting my nails made me uncomfortable with her attitude.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I wouldn't go back to Bee Shine Nails. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The technician was very aggressive with my nails, and when I asked him to be more gentle, he rolled his eyes and seemed annoyed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I also asked for dip powder, but they used clear dip and planned to put gel on top. When I said I wanted colored dip, they told me they don't offer it--something that should have been communicated before starting. read more

The quality of the nails are great, but I had a negative experience with one particular nail tech. There was a miscommunication and essentially, she gave me Gel-X on all my nails when I didn't need them (she should be able to tell looking at them because all my natural nails had grown out enough from last time). [[HIGHLIGHT]]I gently asked for a small discount but I was met with rude attitude and accusatory behavior.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She also cut me by accident a few times (this time and before) with no apologies and proceeded to do things that made the pain worse. I will not be coming back. read more

Nice, clean space and Kim did a beautiful job on my Gel-x nails! I love the pedicures here too. I will definitely be back, thank you Bee Shine! read more

I called on a Friday around Noon to schedule an appointment for two in Saturday afternoon. They were able to accommodate the request. The have six seats at the nail bar and around 10-12 massage chairs for mani/pedis. My friend and I had the pamper me manicure and royal pedicure. Both of our technicians were amazing. The service was attentive and focused on the customer. The owner greeted me when I arrived about five minutes early and had our spots ready. We were there about 2 hours. Atmosphere was intimate and relaxing. I will definitely be back in the future! read more

Clean, friendly place. I am beyond happy with my nails. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tech was knowledgeable, gentle and she answered all my questions about switching to Gel X and what to look for in the future when I go home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely recommend read more

Recently went in for a Gel X full set and pedicure and they did great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Joey did my gel x set and she was so kind and friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She got my almond shape just right! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their whole staff was great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I made an appointment via phone but their website looked easy to make an appointment on as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their color selection is great. No one tried to upsell me on any services, which is a really big deal to me. You can tell that they just want to provide what you ask for and execute it well. read more

I tried and tried to stay with this place, but no more! Ever since the change in ownership it's been a mess. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I find someone I like, they are not there anymore. I have seen so many people come and go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I make my appointment online and I get there I'm told the person is not there, is sick or has an emergency, no advance notice and I have to wait for whoever is available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]SUPER RUDE. NO ENGLISH. NO EYE CONTACT. NO ACKNOWLEDGMENT WHEN I ARRIVE OR WHEN I GET UP TO PAY EVEN.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a trickle down effect from the lady manager, don't know her name but she has a very bad attitude![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I always tip very well so that is not the problem! But the last time I went-I didn't tip at all! I've had it- never going back. They don't deserve my business! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]One star for friendly service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went in to have my powder dip manicure (done by a different salon) removed and opted for a regular manicure. The manicurist shaved my nails down so much they were thin as paper and painful. I also didn't pay attention to it at the time, but when she went to file my nails before painting them, the emery board was not new and had been used. My nails, 3 months later, are still not back to normal and some are discolored. Looks almost like a fungal infection so I'm seeing a doctor to confirm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I feel bad because I loved the atmosphere and staff, but this is unacceptable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll probably never let anyone do my nails again. read more

Cute little spot! Decor is simple and they are very clean. The manicure stands add a nice touch of elegance. The ladies were courteous and confirmed treatment services and took their time ensuring we were comfortable. My nails were a wreck and uneven and my manicurist did a good job of filing them even and giving them a nice shape so as to help protect them from further damage. Total was $122 between a gel pedicure and a gel manicure. About standard nowadays, unfortunately read more

Bee Shine Nail Bar - Nail Technicians Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

This was the worst manicure I've ever had. Chi left excess nail polish on my skin and under my nails, did not file my nails evenly--leaving many frayed hang-nails and jagged edges, and rubbed my skin raw when filing--leaving multiple cuts on my skin. Throughout the manicure, Chi made multiple comments about how lucky I was to have external and internal beauty--at first I thought she was being kind.. but the more this was repeated, it felt disingenuous and made me feel very uncomfortable. My manicure was also supposed to come with a massage, which turned out to be a 10-15 second lotion application. Throughout the manicure, I asked Chi multiple times to be more careful when filing, but she continued to roughly file across my skin. I also asked her to correct multiple areas of jagged & frayed nails, but she had difficulty seeing and correcting these. Thankfully when I was checking out, Ryan noticed how poorly my nails were filed and quickly did a filing touch-up for me at the register. Aside from Ryan's help at the end, I am very unsatisfied with this service. read more

I love Ryan with Bee Shine however the pedicures were lacking. Additionally my nails would often break off. Not sure if this was due to me not getting "long" nails (I prefer short) or the product however it didn't work out for me. Everyone there was amazing and I really wanted things to work out but it didn't for the reasons stated above. read more

The place is really clean and their guard dog is absolutely the cutest! Although this wasn't my favorite set and both the ladies cut me a little lol they were the sweetest people. I'll be back to give 'em another try! I'm goin with someone else for sure but if it doesn't work out next time I might not be back even if they're so nice read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Showed up - no appt. Yelp app showed biz as open.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Walked in front door and boxes all over floor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A guy was standing there. I asked if open and he shook his head no. Odd interaction and experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Beyond disappointed with the lack of communication, time management and professionalism.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had an appointment with a tight schedule to adhere to for the day, I came two hours earlier than my far advanced scheduled appointment to communicate this.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I waited for 25 minutes into my appointment time, they said nothing didn't acknowledge us at all. I finally left to my event with no services fine. So unprofessional. I have been coming here for some time and have never felt more unappreciated as a client ever. Bee Better.. read more

Truly appalled by my experience today. My best friend offered to treat me to mani/pedis as a belated birthday present. She recently moved to the area and didn't have a usual nail spot - so I hopped on Yelp and chose Bee Shine for its positive reviews and photos. My friend called ahead to book our appts and received a confirmation text message. When we got to the salon, my friend checked in on the tablet at the front desk and communicated to the staff that we had arrived for our 3 pm appointment. We spent a few minutes browsing polish and catching up, only to realize it had been almost 20 minutes since we arrived. My friend checked in again with the staff, who initially seemed to recognize that we had been waiting, and said to give them 2 minutes. Needless to say, 2 minutes never came. At 3:45 we decided to call it. As we walked out, I said something to the effect of "bye, thanks" and the staff didn't say a word. No apology, acknowledgement of the situation, or even a goodbye / have a nice day. I honestly don't think they wanted or cared to earn our business. I truly hope the staff takes this and other critical reviews to heart in order to improve the experience of future patrons. read more

Bee Shine Nail Bar - Gel mani - Nail Technicians Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

Details.. .. I've been searching for a new nail place/tech for months since my previous person/friend moved to TX & guys, I think I finally found it/them! prOs.. .. Elaine & Vivian DELIVERED! .. It was easy to schedule my appointment & they were able to fit me in same day (ish). I dm'd them on IG since I found them later at night & felt it was rude to message outside of business hours, but they also have a number you can text. .. Elaine greeted me when I got there & asked me if I had a color in mind. I did for my mani, but not for my pedi. She gave me plenty of time to choose my color while she set up the spa chair. .. She was really thorough & a perfectionist with my manicure & checked in often to ensure everything was to my liking. She was also super easy to chat with. .. Vivian did my pedicure & was just as detailed with her work. .. Neither ladies made me feel rushed even though they seemed a little short staffed & had 1-2 people waiting at times. cOns.. .. It's a small plaza & there was only one spot left when I arrived for my 5pm Thursday appointment. Might be an issue depending on what time/day you visit. .. The polish wall was a bit disorganized. final thOughts.. .. I'll definitely be coming back because their work is the best I've found after months of searching! read more

Bee Shine Nail Bar - Pink pearly/iridescent mani by Elaine. - Nail Technicians Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

There are hidden charges every time I have gone to this salon. They used to charge $5 to remove prior dip nails even though the last set was done with them as well. Today I was charged an additional $5 for "cuticle care" which I never asked for, and was never told about as an additional service. They also charge 3% service fee for credit card. When bringing this to their attention, that it is wrong to add hidden fees to clients when they check out, they responded very rudely and unprofessionally. Added the photos to show this. I strongly suggest going to a nail salon who values their clients, and is transparent about charges. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I've been coming here since they opened and I had a great experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I loved my nail tech, Ryan.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] everything was going great, and then [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had made an appointment July 1 and my nail tech Ryan was no longer there I was informed, and there were a bunch of new technicians and staff[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and I had started with a lady then after removing my gel, this gentleman who was now working on my fill. He did not ask me any questions about shape or anything. He was really aggressive and filed my acrylics down very thin and flat, I like a high Apex I've never had to inform any nail tech about the style because this was already an existing set. [[HIGHLIGHT]]So, I tried my best to communicate that to him, but it was not heard.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My gel did not cure fully so I had a lot of chipping. I definitely overpaid and they looked awful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did not and will not rebook and since have found another neighboring salon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you are a client with a specific nail style do not book here. They now have ruined what used to be a great nail salon. Sorry, but it's the truth. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]i went to get my pedicure done last month and my toenails turned this color, i went back to the salon and the owner said it was my unwashed shoes that ruined my nails, which made me very angry because i had no problems with my toenails before i came here![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] i think it was because they had poor hygiene with the cuticle tools or the water jet massage was not sterilized that i got it from them! my toenails got fungus! Never come back!! read more

I have found my new go to nail salon! I recently just moved to Southern California and am a person who avidly gets her nails done every 3-4 weeks. I've been going to the same person for several years where I used to live and was getting discouraged that I wouldn't find a place that I would really like and a nail artist who I would mesh with and do a great job. I found this at bee shine nail bar. I found them via Yelp and IG and they did not disappoint. I scheduled an appointment same day via their online scheduling system (which is super user friendly) and was confirmed right away. I was paired with Ryan and he forever has a customer in me. He did such a great job and I enjoyed how meticulous he was. He made me feel relaxed and comfortable and I walked out with amazing nails. If you're looking for a place to go. Please go see Ryan and Bee shine! read more

In July 2024, I made an appointment that the owner canceled on me last minute and they marked me as a no show. I thought I'd give the business some time to establish itself and system before trying again. Again in 2025, I made an appointment for TWO people and they only had it marked as 1. I was unable to do my nails today and staff made no effort for retention. No one offered another appointment slot, a discount for next time, or not even an apology. How disappointing that a place so conveniently close to home cannot honor their commitments. read more
