Save your money and do not come here! The lady quoted me $35 for a pedicure and $55 for my nails when it's time to pay my total was $178!!!! When I asked her that doesn't add up 2 pedicures and 1 gel manicure doesn't come out to almost $200 She said oh yes the pedicure is $35 but I charge $25 EXTRA for gel color. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wow how about letting a customer know before hand.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She also kept adding charges throughout my service. For my color I said French tip and she said that's an extra $10 At this point find another place with people who won't price gouge. They're also extremely dirty. Did not have any liner on the pedicure tub and seems like they don't disinfect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Whoever is the owner needs to do some serious changes and be honest to customers[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Crystal Nail Salon - They did a great job for a classic gel, short nail and painted toes. I loved the massages too! - Nail Salons Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I asked for regular nail polish and she added jell for $25.00 after I told her I wanted regular. When the check came it was $75.00 as opposed to the 45 I agreed to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I paid it cause I don't want to argue but it definitely feels like I just got scammed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would choose another spot if I were you. read more

Called ahead to ask "is anyone available for a wax" was told yes come now, I told them I was on my way and would be there in 10min.. I arrived 10min later and was told to "sit there and wait a while.." [[HIGHLIGHT]]better communication would be nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After waiting 10min I finally asked if I needed to come back later and they said someone's on their way another 10min. I would have waited to come if I knew there wasn't anyone available. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Time is valuable and as a new mom small windows of opportunity to step out is all I have, Super frustrating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And a waste of my time. I won't be back. read more

Just not a good nail salon sadly. I did the deluxe pedicure with regular polish for $60. She put the hot wax on my feet before she started the 15 min timer for the massage so she was only able to (lightly) rub my calves and shins and didn't touch my feet. At one point she put her hands on my shins and leaned her full body weight on me to get closer and hear what I was saying because the music was so loud. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to say "sorry that hurts can you not do that".[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She also fully painted my cuticles and made no attempt to clean them up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once she finished and I paid they basically pushed me out the door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I said that I didn't think the polish was dry and there was no one waiting for my seat so I didn't understand. Of course 5 min later they got screwed up and are basically ruined. They also have such a limited selection of colors. I asked for a dark red that didn't have sparkle and that was too exotic apparently. She kept showing me magentas and fire truck reds. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Becoming here for years, and the new honors are great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, they have radically raised their prices, so be sure you ask ahead of time with the prices for the service. And save your money when it comes to not getting anything "gel!" Gel is overrated. read more

Service and product are terrible. If you're not getting gel nails a foot long they don't know what to do or how to do it. For a standard $60 manicure/pedicure they're using old, dried up polish and take forever AND they're unfriendly. It's centrally located which is how they scam people into going in but this place is NOT worth your money for a standard manicure/pedicure. Save your valuable vacation time and money and SKIP this place altogether. read more

Got my nails done for a wedding and the person who did my nails here (Jasmine) was so good! She was thorough, detailed, and very supportive of my vision/design I wanted. I got the acrylic nails with small pearls. Love how these turned out! I was initially worried that it would fall off quick after a few weeks but let me tell you that these actually lasted 3 MONTHS! The pearl never even came off like I thought. Such a classy and cute look. Def worth it Also location is pretty safe considering that it is in Waikiki. I was able to grab a meal right after. read more

Would not recommended the builder gel service. The nail has no apex and is bumpy which can be seen in the final product. They got polish on my skin and didn't wipe it off. Also buffed down the topcoat on my nail so part of it is dull. Nails are all different shapes and lengths. When I cured the gel it burned so bad that I had to take breaks every 3 seconds. Cost of this procedure was $70 not including tax. $10 extra if you want cateye polish. read more

Horrible experience. I went to get a manicure. My fingers and nails were so bruised by the time that she finished I was mortified. I ended up going to another salon to get the nails removed and ended up realizing how bad the bruising was. I am still sore. The salon that helped fix this advised to not put nails back on and let them heal due to how severe this was. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even after noting the drill was hurting and clearly hitting my skin constantly she just continued to tell me to relax.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The manicure was horrible. The nails were uneven, excessively thick, and overall poor. My nails are now bruised (didn't even know that could happen). Concerned I actually have an infection now. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If I could leave a zero I would.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Great service! We did a walk in, my mom, sister and I. They were able to take in all of us. I got a massage and so did my sister. My mom got a pedicure, and massage. The staff is super friendly and made us feel completely comfortable. The place is small with 4 chairs and three nail stations but service is excellent. Totally recommend this place after long walks for a foot massage. If you are in the area come try it out! read more

Crystal Nail Salon - Foot massage - Nail Salons Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

We are first time visitors to Honolulu ,my friend decided to drop in for a pedicure and to get a little pampering for a special event. Immediately after leaving this shop she mentioned pain on her right toes. The next day she was still describing how her toes hurt ever since she received that pedicure. Today she treated her toes with an antibacterial ointment. She plans to see her medical doctor when we return back home. Be careful out here!! read more

Upcharges galore! Need existing polish taken off? That's an extra $10 for toes and $10 for fingers. Want gel? That's an extra $25 each, too! Total to check out was 4x-5x what I normally pay and my heals were still very rough/dry like sandpaper. If you don't use cash, that's another upcharge. "Deluxe" pedicure which includes 15 min massage should be $60, but by the time you pay for polish removal ($10) and gel ($25) you're at $95 plus tax and tip. Massage chair is very old and not comfortable...Left my back feeling tender to touch (like I had a sunburn under the skin). Skin on legs and feet still looked and felt extremely dry (see photo). Fill in is $35 plus another $35 in up charges so $70 plus tax and tip for basic, one color service. They did fit me in quickly and did both toes and fingers at the same time. Location and hours were convenient to where I was staying. There are other places recommended to me by locals in the Al Moana Mall about a mile away. Perhaps this location takes advantage of tourists? read more

DO NOT COME HERE!! Horrible place!!!! Holy crap. Please save your money and time. No wonder they have NO BUSINESS!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am Vietnamese and they were talking about bad about me because I didn't want to get a 30 minute foot massage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I literally just wanted 15 minutes because I was waiting for Marugame Udon to open.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And good thing that I didn't get the 30 minute massage because the massage was so bad! I am a nail technician out of Austin, TX. She literally massaged my leg up and down. No pressure at all. No foot massage. I watched someone next to me get a pedicure. They don't use spa liners. They don't put their tools in sterilized bags. They were reusing their nail files and buffers and I can tell because they were not the single use ones. Horrible place. Please save your time and money. I wished that I read reviews before I came. read more

Got a gel mani in a pinch from here and it's lasted me two weeks so far. The guy was a bit rough with the filing but overall happy I was able to walk in and get my nails done a day before a wedding I went to. read more

worst nail experience of my life! the technician clearly didn't know how to file nails/ do her job! I've gotten MANY manicures in my life and this by far was the worse!! read more

Mary did a wonderful job on my nails, fills and gel polish Nice clean atmosphere. Fair price for Hawaii read more

I really never write reviews but this place really called for it: * I went in to get my gels removed, first they started drilling without filing, when I told her it hurt the lady said "fine then I'll soak your nails in for an hour how about that" * I had a phone call that I took (keep in mind the salon was empty except me and her) she told me "you talk so loud" and I was speaking at a normal volume * I asked her if she could cut my nails and she said it'd be $10 extra-- I've been getting my nails done for years and never told getting my nails cut was extra * Overall just genuinely terrible service-- I don't expect a lot but this salon was truly so passive aggressive and nothing like what I expected * The pictures are what I left the salon looking like and paid for read more

I had a very mid experience here for a pedicure. They accepted me as a walk in which was nice, and the staff was also welcoming. The salon does have some health safety concerns though. I was thrown off that they didn't automatically line the foot tub with the plastic, and I was actually charged for it. The exfoliating gloves, exfoliating sponge, and heel scraper seemed to be shared among all clients which I found kind of gross. The actual pedicure itself was also not impressive. The paint went out of the lines and my lady spent more time cleaning it up than actually doing it. The finished product still has messy lines. To top it off, this was one of the most expensive pedicures I've ever gotten, and I'm from SF Bay Area. I don't think the service or the result is worth the price. The cheapest option for a pedicure that they offered me was $45, then adding in the tax and plastic liner came out to $49. Needless to say I'll try and find a better place in Waikiki read more

Finding a FRIENDLY nail shop where it appeared that your business was desired was surprisingly harder than I thought here in Waikiki. I visited one shop that didn't even acknowledge my presence for over 15 minutes! Happened to be walking by Crystal Nail Salon one evening on the way to an eatery and I saw workers cleaning up. Since it was toward closing time, I wasn't expecting to be serviced nor was I expecting the great customer service I received when I walked in! My pedicures are a little "extra" lol if I do say so myself, as I have acrylic on my toes so I always expect to pay more and for it to take time. The manager Melissa not only acknowledged that but also offered me an appointment at a time where she'd be able to service me with the time needed to give me excellent results. I appreciated that! And I did just that. Scheduled an appointment for two days later and the time spent was very detail oriented. Needless to say, the pic shown is my SECOND visit to this establishment and once again great time and attention has been shown Total BB referral!! read more

This place is conveniently located across from the International Market Place in Waikiki and my friend and I already had an appointment at the dry bar an hour out so we thought we would try to get our nails done if possible before checking into our dry bar appointment. The ladies were kind enough to fit us in, in fact, they accommodated us and told us if they don't finish we can go back after our other appointment! They knew how much of a rush we were in but they worked together to try their best to service our mani and pedis all at the same time! They did not let quality get past them though even when we were pressed for time so that truly spoke volumes of the pride they take in the work they did for us. We didn't finish but we did return to complete the service and they did so professionally. We appreciated the work and the accommodation! We would definitely visit again next time we decide to play tourist! Thank you Crystal Nail staff, for making our visit a pleasant experience! I'm reading the other reviews and I'm surprised by the negative ones. Perhaps those "rude" people are no longer there or they learn to change their ways. Perhaps too they were disrespected first and sensed bad vibes from the negative tellers. But what I saw today, and how they treated us and the quality of work they provided was pleasant! Check them out!! Everyone has their own story, but you should be your own judge to the kind of service you get. read more

Started with my niece and I wanting a pedicure. We walked away, seems she wasn't open quite yet. The elderly lady came outside and starting sweeping so hard towards us. The dirt was hitting us. I said to her' "that's rude of you". She said back to us, "it's my job bitch". Extremely unprofessional and uncalled for. The elderly woman was name calling my niece and I fat pigs. Then wobbling like we were two tons mocking someone with a disability. Shot us the middle finger and Kept saying F-*# you over and over to us. She came outside and started taking pictures of me. Ok! That's doesn't hurt me at all. I'm not the one with an open business. The people sitting outside subway, couldn't believe it either. The jaws were just left wide open. What a great representation of your business. read more
