Made an appointment and waited 15 minutes past. Still didn't take me or tell me when they could. Then they sat me in some ratty chair with the massage ball poking thru- don't go here. I left. read more

Immediate response upon walking in. Attention to detail. Nice pedicure at reasonable price.

I don't think they use individual sanitized manicure tool sets anymore. I got a cuticle infection all the way up my toe a couple of days after getting a pedicure there. Hurt really bad. read more

The nail technician kept pressuring me about the tip, and the service wasn't good at all.I paid $65 and didn't even receive the hand massage. When I mentioned it, she said she didn't have time. It was one of the most unprofessional and disappointing attitudes I've ever bad manicure experienced. I regret going. read more

Happy Nails and Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

I went for 2 months. Every time a fill or a new set were put on. The nails were never the same length I would have to file them down to where I felt comfortable to work. They are also so busy chatting and not focusing on the customers that they are working on. They made me bleed to the point where I said I'm good let's be done I got the conversation back as it's ok it's ok oops it's oops I fix. Not happy sad face not ever returning. read more

I used to come here a while ago.. and didn't like the experience. Now they are under NEW OWNERSHIP and it's been AMAZING!!! TIM IS THE BEST!!!! Do yourself a favor and get your nails and feet done here. You'll be so HAPPY! read more

I am very happy with the service I receive from Tim. My nails last 5 weeks with no cracking because he puts this hardener on my nails. I cannot say enough good things about this guy. I am a 62 year old woman so I have had plenty of manicures over the years. Thank you for the excellent work Tim! read more

I was met immediately with a warm welcome for a pedicure. I did not have an appointment and was pleasantly surprised that Tina was able to help me. She helped me choose the correct "Christmas " color with sparkle! She painted several examples for me to choose She was friendly, efficient and professional. read more

I love coming to this Happy Nails, Cindy the owner is a speedy Gonzales, she is fast and does perfect gel nails, designs beautifully. Today I tried another nail tech Andy is really nice and did my gel nails with care & focus. Lisa did the best foot massage I also had my legs masked and my toes parifined, hot wax. I feel like a million bucks. read more

There is a good reason this salon' majority of reviews rated #1. Not only do they do a terrible job, they are ridiculously overpriced. I went in to have my nails taken off and a pedicure and brought my son for a manicure and pedicure. I did not have any polish put on my nails at all and neither did my son. It was $130 for both. I could've stayed at home to clip my nails and soak them off and I would've done a better job and it would've been less expensive. read more

went in to get my eyebrows waxed and the lady did the worst job she could've possibly done. She did not clean them up up at all and when she showed them to me i asked her to clean them up a little more and she was so rude and said "why didn't you tell me then" and proceeded to "fix" them and was so rough. read more

Happy Nails and Spa - you can see where she left wax on my face and did not clean them up, they don't even look the same - Nail Salons Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

I went here 2 days ago and my gel polish was already peeling. I was hoping it would last longer as gel usually does. I paid $45 for it. I hope there's a possibility to fix this. $45 is not a cheap price for gel manicure. read more

The pedicure was great! I didn't feel rushed. My appointment was on time. Friendly staff.

Thank you Tim and Mimi for a soothing and relaxing foot and hand massage!!!! I appreciate the the quality of products and services. Thank you!!!!!! read more

Ken, and Andy were amazing. Love this place. Everyone is super nice and does a great job

Great!! I love coming to Happy Nails in my neighborhood! It's very convenient and Tim and Mimi take such good care of me! It's pretty and spacious and clean! I get a gel mani pedi with a wonderful scrub and massage! Definitely recommend! read more

Terrible shaping of oval acrylic set, acrylic residue on back side of nails, no painting of nails to cuticle, very underwhelmed. Unfortunately these days it is hard to find a place that gives you your money's worth, and this place isn't it. Although nail techs are kind, sadly I went in expecting the worst, and it happened. $100 later and I hate my nails. Will not be returning. I give it two stars because at least they weren't rude. read more

I am very disappointed in this nail spa. I had dip nails done, and the results were horrible. My nails were long and before I knew it, I looked down and my nails were super short they looked uneven and the polish was not smooth . I went in to show the owner and she stated she could correct them right then ,however, I did not have time. Seriously, she seem to care less. She didn't even ask me which technician it was . I do not recommend. The worst job I've ever had done. I'll never use the salon again. read more

You're better off letting a toddler do your nails than coming here unless you like uneven polish and every nail shaped differently- who knew you could have 10 different nail shapes in one sitting. Poor service, poor quality and over priced. Definitely go somewhere else. read more

This is such an amazing shop. Cindy and her brother Steven are the best. The attention to detail is great. Tony did my pedicure and was so gentle and I appreciate that's so much. It makes me sad to see these bad reviews since it is such a great place. read more

Thank you Hannah, Steve and the rest of the crew for the pleasant experience with my boyfriend today. Their service and attention to detail is unbeatable in my opinion! Definitely my favorite salon by far read more

It's a no for me. First and last time I go. I came in for a dip removal and regular mani pedi. Even with appointment they make you wait. I was cut so many times by the tech. They didn't even put anti bacterial solution on them. They did a horrible job cleaning my cuticles, filing and painting my nails. I should've listened to the previous reviews, they're not lying! Find another place people! read more

I made a reservation 2 weeks in advance for myself and another to get their nails and toes done at the same time. I even double checked the week before to make sure there were no issues, as these nails were for a wedding of a close family member. To our surprise, when we showed up, no one was available to do pedicures on either of us, and only one person was available to do nails. Despite seeing our names on the list for the time we arrived, those who did not have reservations were accommodated before us. When we were seen, the job done by the mail technician was so bad, and so rushed. I felt like I was an inconvenience to even be there and got a horrible job done. The two of us for a regular mani pedi took over 3 hours, and I ended up having to come back for another hour later that evening to fix the rushed janky job done. Luckily I lived near by or this would have been even more of an inconvenience. If they do not honor reservations, there is no reason to even go here. And, to top it off, you are paying for a rushed horrible job, that needs to be done twice and doesn't last. My manicure, even with the touch up, lasted only 3 days. Do your self a favor and do not go here. read more

I would not recommend this place , the pedicure took way to long. The paint was really patchy and the lady left paint on my skin and when I mentioned it she was upset at me. Super sloppy work and didn't even square off my nails. I have pain on my big toes for some reason. What a waste of $50 dollars. I also got the scrub for the dead skin and I still have some on the bottom of my foot. read more

I won't recommend this saloon to anybody I went there to do my manicure and have a gel polish.first it takes like two hours to do my nails and It is done in a very bad way it doesn't have a good look and I lost my polish after three or four days and I for 10 days as it has not done in a right way they removed easily. Before that I saved my gel polish for like three weeks not 10 days.I didn't get any professional service in the salon so I won't recommend this to anyone. read more

Horribly sloppy job! They had to redo my pedicure! I was shocked when they actually asked me to pay for this service! My four year old grandson could have done a better paint job! read more

Since the owner changed, their service has been terrible and rush every thing. Would not recommend.

There is nothing I can't stand more than scams or people trying to trick you. I've never been here and walked in. I get the prices before beginning and I put my chair massage on. An employee stops my massage lowers back my chair and rubs my shoulders. I specifically ask when she began "does your service come with massage?" And she says yes. She stood after 10 minutes and asks if I want to pay for 10 minutes more. I say no thank you. When my nails are done she says I owed her $20 for the massage tgat I didn't ask for. Then after going back and forth with the woman her manager says she will not charge me but next time don't expect it with a service. Next time? Is she crazy? read more

It makes me really sad to see the negative reviews on this salon. IT'S SO GOOD!!! The managers are so very kind, I've only been three or four times and each time the woman at the front knows exactly what I need! It's very clean, they use liners in the tubs, and the oils/lotions they use are not heavily fragranced which I SO APPRECIATE! Also, I love that they have spa like music and beach scenes on the tv, rather than news or tv with commercials. Total spa feel! Also the neck massages are AMAZING, highly recommend. As for the polish job, I'll let the picture speak for itself GREAT JOB!! read more

Hate to write this review but I went yesterday to get my dip nails redone, as they were chipped and way too thick. Today another nail is already chipped off! Super disappointing read more

I started going here during Covid and brought a TON of friends over to help keep them open. They were great. I continued to go there and loved supporting a brother/sister business. As time went on, I would sit there while he would do my nails and constantly takes breaks to be on his phone, have to wait up to an hour for my appointment time, everything just taking forever to be done. I finally walked out because I had waited too long it was unacceptable. If you're in a hurry or want to be out in a reasonable time do not go here. Steven did great (did not like Cindy's nail job at all so always asked for Steven) but the respect for client was lost. In the end, sadly they lost a very loyal customer and her family. read more

I went back in today to have the gel removed and speak with the owner regarding the situation of my last experience there. He did agree to remove the gel free of charge as I want to monitor the health of my nails for the next few weeks due to the exposure during the pedicure. He asked if i wanted any sort of polish on it but I declined. They were very quick to address it and ask what could be done to fix the situation and the yelp review as it could hurt their business which I understand. He did mention that I is best to talk directly to them so that they can relay that to their employees and resolve the issue which I respect. As per the conditions of the last pedicure I mentioned that the things that I could not take back were the facts of the appointment and what happened. He said they use different pumice stones per every client and I have been there before and know that this is true but the hand held pumice stone/brush combo with a handle is not anything any of the other technicians had in their carts or had used before the other times I've been here. We spoke about the tools situation and he said he'd review it with his employees. Overall this experience of going to get the gel removed was quick and a lot more pleasant than the last appointment. They even fixed the shape of the nails and cuticles for me without me even bringing it up which was very nice of them. read more

Wonderful spa always takes great care of me! Clean, professional, nice and attentive. Great pedicure spot

I moved to Laguna Niguel over the summer of 2020 and started going to this nail salon for my monthly pedicures because it's so close to my new home here. I feel very lucky because I have had nothing but wonderful experiences at this salon every time I've been there. The operators who work there are all polite and very thorough at their jobs (the foot & calf massage is my favorite part of the experience and they all do it so good!!) I've never left there feeling unsatisfied by my pedicure. The place is spotlessly clean and they usually can accommodate me within minutes even when I don't have an appointment. The owners are always very welcoming, pleasant and do their very best to accommodate everyone even when they are extremely busy. I highly recommend this salon to everyone in the area. read more

I started going here for my acrylics with French manicure. I went to Cindy who could give me the shape I liked and did a good job on the tips. She gave me her cell and said to let her know when I was coming. The first few times it went fine. But then I'd ask if she had anything in the morning and she would suggest another time later in the day or another day altogether. She could be really rude. They take walk-ins! They don't even write down appointments. You're always a walk-in so this seemed really odd to me. I wondered if I wasn't tipping enough so double checked with Google and apparently I tipped on the high end so that didn't seem to be the issue. I found out later that they prefer cash tips. Maybe that was it. But I totally had it. I found somewhere else where I actually feel like the customer. Would never recommend this place. One last thing... don't EVER let them take off your old acrylics for a new set. I don't think I've been through many things as painful as that appointment. Don't go. read more

I love my nails every time Cindy does them!!! And her brother wows me every time with his talent of making my design exactly like the picture I show him!!! I'm a server/bartender and I get so many compliments on my nails :) read more

Love the place. Great service! Fair pricing! Always accommodates us without an appointment.

I am very upset. I had my acrylic nails removed here on Saturday night. I kept flinching because she was filing too deep into my nail. EVERY single one of my nails HURTS. It hurts to do anything at work. They are all tender and sore. She over filed the crap out of them, they are red and thin as paper. 10/10 do not recommend read more
