    Great place to go to get your nails done Lynn or Leanne is her name. She does a great job also does wonderful designs.
    Amber B.

    Been going here for years the lady that did my nails her name is Lynn or Leanne. She does a great job. She takes her time and she does awesome design work. It's a whole vibe in there. Great music great pedicures great service.

    Full set done by Paul
    Nelly M.

    This is my second time coming to happy day nails and spa. I was helped by Paul and Tina, Tina did my pedi which she was just so polite and sweet and I enjoyed having a conversation with her. Paul did my full set and he was very kind. He likes to sing while he's doing nails, which I thought was nice because he had a nice voice. Both of them were very friendly and the vibe was just relaxing and peaceful. Great staff and great atmosphere. Will be back again.

    I got my nails done by Lin. She saved me, another shop, told me at the last minute after my pedicure that they couldn't do my full set. I was so upset because it was my only day off for a while. I came here and she got me together.

    Thank you Lynn! Love my nails

    I have been coming to Happy Day Nails & Spa 4 years and they are great! Thank you Linh for taking your time and getting me right for my bday weekend. Love my nails Linh is very nice and takes her time on you

    Love my nails! Linh did them so beautifully I will definitely be returning to her. She is so welcoming and sweet and does an amazing job at nails!

    Lee did a great job on my nails! He was very attentive and listened when I asked him to fix something for me if I thought it was off or wanted it thinner etc. I did come back a bit later noticing a few minor things and Paul did a great job fixing even those in just a few moments with no problem. I would recommend both of these nail techs! Even having a few things they were willing to understand and take attention to detail as soon as I pointed it out without making it seem like a hassle. All the staff made the experience better and were super attentive and chatty and someone offered water bottles and a nail tech even grabbed my friend a pillow to make her feel more comfortable. Note- the second is dimmer lighting so the nails look a little different but same day

    I've been going here for the past 4.5 years. Megan has always done my nails and done them well. She is by the far the sweetest and most caring nail tech I've ever met. She'll always do her best to ensure that you get the nails you want and that they look pretty before you leave her seat. She's the one and only nail tech I recommend to all my friends.

    Dip powder manicure with almond shaped natural nails
    Sarah-Lorraine K.

    WHY I WENT HERE: - on the search to be a regular at or at least have a go-to nail salon for a dip powder manicure - location was reasonable to where I lived and that stated they offer dip powder manicures THE DIP POWDER MANICURE PROCESS: - like any other manicure: your nails will be filed, cuticle care, cut, etc. - unlike any other manicure: 1) each finger is dipped into clear, finely-milled powder; 2) excess powder is brushed off; 3) each layer is set with a protective clear polish; 4) steps are repeated until the nail is fully coated and hardened; 5) each nail is sealed with a gel top coat COMPARISON NOTES: - the first salon I tried dip powder manicure at applied 3 layers of dip powder before sealing it 2x with a gel top coat; each layer was dried/cured via fan - at the second salon I tried dip powder manicure at applied 2 layers of dip before sealing it 2x with a gel top coat; each layer was just timed via the owner's/nail tech's phone - at the third salon, 3 layers of dip powder were applied before sealing it 2x with a shellac gel top coat and cured via the UV light (only the shellac top coat layers were cured via the UV light) - at the fourth salon, 4 layers of dip powder were applied before sealing it 2x with a gel top coat - at THIS salon, 1 clear powder coat and 4 color powder coats were applied before sealing it with a shellac gel top coat THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located in a small plaza that's shared with Tapatio Brothers and Western Union - the plaza the salon is located is on Howe Ave closest to El Camino Ave - the parking lot itself is pretty limited, but I came by here in the beginning of the day and easily got parking (one of the first appointments of the day) THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - dated - questionable cleanliness - the manicure station I went to definitely wasn't cleaned or sanitized prior to my sitting or being there; the nail tech (who I believe was the owner) was scraping off debris from the counter (that was there prior to me being there) DURING my appointment CUSTOMER SERVICE: - called ahead to book a last minute appointment - owner (who ended up being my nail tech) was very warm and welcoming - VERY minimal nail color choices for dip powder - I came in for a dip powder manicure and the length of my nails was long enough to try almond shaped which was nice and I feel made my fingers look more slender - able to pay for my services + tip with Venmo OVERALL: - the nails didn't last a full 2 weeks before it started cracking and deteriorating unfortunately

    Uneven and you can see my nail beds
    Danielle G.

    Today was my first time at this nail shop the customer service experience was great, I had a scheduled appointment and they sat me as soon as I walked in. I honestly had a good experience until after my pedi I went back to the person that did my nails (Paul) to politely tell him that there were a few imperfections with my nails and I wanted him to fix them. The first thing that came out of his mouth was " I fixed your nails twice already and now you want to fix again" with a light weight attitude. I immediately stood up and said ewww never mind I don't want you to fix anything! One that was an unprofessional response and two it doesn't matter how many times you've fixed a mistake that YOU made he should've apologized and fix the sloppy mistake that was done. Needless to say I paid for my services and tipped the person that did my pedicure and walked out just to go to another nail shop to have my nails redone...... I will NEVER spend any dime nor step foot in that place again! I paid an additional 30 dollars to have them fixed. They will take our money with no questions and don't care about NOTHING ELSE I feel so disrespected. BE CAREFUL WHO YOU SPEND YOUR MONEY WITH PPL!

    Honestly, really disappointed. What I asked for was extremely simple. Remove my old acrylics and a gel manicure. my acrylics were filed, then soaked, 8x over. The woman started using a nail tip? To try and remove the remaining acrylics. The space was dirty. Just all over dirty. She had my start soaking from a bowl that was covered in foil. Now I can only assume that it was used before me for someone else. AUTOCLAVE is advertised on the door however as someone who daily uses an autoclave. I can tell you that they are not actually using it per person as the bag they brought my tools out in NOT ONLY didn't have a proper mark that it had been heat treated but SHE TOOK A CLIP OFF THE BAG. Those bags are a 1x use that should be SEALED. $40 and I walked out looking like I painted my own nails. They aren't even filed even. SMH.

    Just left and let me tell you Lana did NOT disappoint honey! I absolutely love my nails! She took her time and made sure throughout the process that I liked my nails. I let her do her thing on how the hearts are placed but she did let me pick multiple colors without breaking my pockets! Parking is hard to find since they are in a busy strip mall. But totally worth it. I made an appointment just in case and while they weren't packed they had a steady rush. I will definitely be back, I think I'll stick with Lana though! Hope this helps

    Nails done by Meagan
    Frances G.

    First time visit. Called and got a same day appointment today. Meagan and Lee were very friendly and attentive. We were there for 2 nail fills one dip and one gel. Both were completed to our liking/satisfaction in a very timely manner. We're both very happy with our service. Prices were very competitive, plenty of parking and I noticed they accepted various types of payment including venmo and cash app. The only thing that we were surprised with was the $20 charge just to change color on our toenails (which we decided to pass on) and that Lee didn't get close enough to the cuticle and so the nails look like they've grown out a bit already .

    A quick google search will show you that MMA monomer is illegal to use on nails
    Maria C.

    Please be warned! I thought twice before sharing my experience at Happy Day Nails & Spa because I was concerned about how my review could potentially harm their business... but after some research I decided that my review is worth a mention and could potentially save YOU from having the same unsatisfactory experience. I think my photos are self explanatory. But these are 4 of my main complaints. What I asked for: French tips (green on one hand and black on the other) Price: $65 + tip 1.) MMA (illegal) monomer is not allowed to be used in nail shops in California. EMA (legal) monomer turns flaky when removed properly. MMA turns goey and sticky, it's messy to remove and harmful. Most shop shops use force or the corner of nail tips to yank off an old set. This can lead to infection and it's very painful and harmful to the nail bed. When I came in to Happy Day Nails, I did ask if they used MMA and they said "No only EMA". I believed them and Unfortunately I made a bad call with this nail shop and will not be returning again. 2.) My nail tech applied MMA monomer on my natural nail (assuming as a primer?) before adding the kids glue and attaching the tip. This caused some reaction because my finger tips were burning. (Similar burn to when you get gel on your skin and put it under a UV lamp). Except this reaction did not need a lamp. YES, I did speak up and complained about the pain. His response "it's the nail tips, they are different". Whatever that means... I have never seen this done at any nail shop and I've never felt that burning sensation during nail tip application. My guess is he filed my nails to much and the monomer caused the burning sensation. 3.) As you can see, my French tips were all different sizes, they were uneven and the nail shape was not even close to the ones in my inspo picture (which I did show them). I asked them if they had experience in French tips, specifically if they knew how to do an acrylic moon cut and acrylic colored tip.. I specifically said I did not want gel for the tip. I even showed him a video from tik tok (me thinking it would be easier if I just showed him rather than tried explaining.. there was already a language barrier, I simply thought a video would make more sense). He took a quick look and went back to business while reassuring me he knew what he was doing. I told him it was ok if he did not know how to do what I was asking for.. I would have simply asked for a basic single color set. 4.) I've been to this location at least 4 times (mainly for pedis) but every time I come by it is a whole experience... i understand the location is in a rough neighborhood with homeless popping in n out. That's to say, if you're coming here for a peaceful and relaxing experience... please find somewhere else to go. I have witnessed prejudice and discrimination towards black women. Refusing service or talking back to clients for no specific reason. On one occasion I was sitting next to a woman who was visibly upset at the service she was receiving (in hindsight, she did what most of us would never do and that's speak up) but her nail tech blatantly ignored her request to start over and went as far as to refuse to continue his service and kicked her out. To say the least, I left my nail appointment more anxious than when I got there.

    I've been going to April for a while now and I must say....she's just gotten better and better!…read more April is still a super sweet individual who is able to make you feel better no matter how your day...or even week is going. She has done wonders for the hair growth on my legs! I came to her with hair growth so messed up (from a not so great wax from another individual) that it was a wonder how she was able to wax my legs in the first place. There were short, but wax able hair, medium hair and oh my long kinda hair. After the first two sessions she was able to help the hair growth so that my hairs grow around the same time. Her technique has been so amazing that you really don't feel the hairs being pulled out. She's also done wonders on my ingrown hairs. True, I'll still get them every now and then, but April has been wonderful about helping with those too! She's also the only I can trust with my brazillians! I've been to a lot of different people and after about two years searching I found April and not willing to let her go (I truly hope I don't sound like some crazed stalking fan girl, but she's that good!)! She's helped me with all the ingrown and hair growth problems there too (yeah, a bit TMI, but meh....my hair just doesn't like me some times....probably from all the torment I've put it through). If you've ever wanted to try waxing or even getting a facial, I highly recommend going to April. She's a sweet and knowledable person. She's one who'll talk with you so it gets your mind off the process that's happening with a wax. She's also really good with hard wax! Highly recommend that to those still having the strips being ripped from you. She's helped me with some of my acne problems and again isn't one to push products and is willing to let you sample some of her higher end stuff. If you can't afford that she'll think of some of the over the counter products that you can get at a local Walmart or Target. She's also one that works with anyone's budget. Look through her services and ask her about anything you're not sure about. It's easy to book with her too!

The Facial room was very spacious and decorated with modern decor which made me feel relaxed and queen like feeling. I was instructed to change and get in the hot seat. My facial was very soothing and relaxing she notified me of what she was doing and using on my face and also suggesting on how we can fix the problem areas. She did a great job and I will definitely see her again. Please take care of your skin and yourself. You need to find someone educated and who knows skin types. At Bella lounge she's awesome.
