About to go in for my second nail appointment here. Don't think I'll go to any other nail shop but here, especially when you have a very thorough nail friend like CASSANDRA. This lady is amazing! She will make your designs come to life. I came to her with an idea that I've been wanting to get for my nails. I had a bad nail experience prior to seeing her, so I've been just doing my own nails at home and letting them grow out. The last set I did was an acrylic set and I let it grow out and came to see her so she could fix me all up. She did this French/ombré chrome design and I loveeeedddd it! She texted me after telling me that my design was so popular that tons of her clients had asked for it too, which made me so happy! I've had this current set for a whole month now and due to my clumsiness I have broken 2 nails and now I have to go back so Cassandra and work her magic. Also my nails have grown out so quick! I received so many compliments at work and even had a customer go home and try to replicate my nails too I will follow Cassandra if she ever leaves! Also, because this place is vegan friendly... this spot has NO SMELL. I would get such huge migraines going to the other nail shops bc I can't stand the smell. I was able to have a 2.5 hour convo with Cassandra while she did my nails and not felt like I was dying from how strong the odors are! GO ASK FOR CASSANDRA! CASSANDRA FOR PRESIDENT! read more

I walked by Lollipop once and was very intrigued. My husband bought me a pedicure as a treat since he knew I wanted to try it out. It was incredibly overpriced for what it was. No chairs so your feet soak in a small plastic tub while sitting on a very uncomfortable sofa with no arm support. They tout handmade scrubs - it's almond oil and almond meal. I can make that at home. Their schtick is vegan and healthy; I can get 5 free nail polishes at the place I usually go to, or bring my own. Not to mention they did not have a very great selection. My 5 minutes (total, for both feet) massage was very underwhelming. The whole 30 minutes was underwhelming. Shaping was decent, one of my nails is lopsided, but the (lovely) girl who helped me left paint on the skin. I had to do additional cleanup when I got home. It just wasn't worth $35. I could have done the same job at home for free. They are catering to a very specific demographic of women who have more money than sense and buy into fads. I will be sticking to my $22 Asian place down the street, thank you. read more

I passed by Lollipop while walking through The Camp and thought the salon was cute and (most importantly) so clean. I made an appointment to try this nail salon and returned a week later. The girl who made my appointment was polite and gave me an overview of the salon. I learned that the salon sterilizes all its tools, believes in organic and non-toxic polish, and hand makes all its scrubs. The prices were average and so I was excited to return. On the day of appointment, I walked and and was greeted. I picked out a color. There were three brands of nail polishes, and all three were organic and one was even water-based. So interesting! The manicure itself was very average and actually disappointing. The manicurist went through filing, shaping, clipping, and removing of yucky cuticles. This is where we get dicey. Although she meant well, she clipped the cuticles a bit too deep and I had to pull my hand back. I usually don't have my cuticles clipped but thought there was a lot of build up with the dry weather. Afterwards the manicurist told me that I actually didn't have much cuticle at all. Yikes. I was looking forward to experiencing their homemade scrub but my manicure didn't include it at all. :( After painting, my manicurist cleaned up any excess paint. I was horrified to see that the salon was using acetone. I thought acetone was bad/not organic. Butter London uses non-acetone products so I was really surprised. I also learned that the organic polishes are a bit difficult to work with and the manicurist has to work quickly to paint. I'm not sure if it was the paint or technique, but the polish was uneven. It was thick from the middle to the tip of the nail but then thin at the base of the nail. I loved the concept of a clean and organic salon, but for reasons said above, I I don't plan on returning. Pros: clean, nice customer service Cons: painful cuticle removal, uneven paint job read more

They do great quality work. My pedicure's from here last longer than anywhere else. Everyone who works here is very friendly too. Their service's might be a little more expensive than other salons but in my experience they last longer and that makes up for the price difference. Make an appointment before you go. read more

Would rate this 5 stars, but took off a star for nail polish that still scraped off despite a very long process of air drying, not anything more than what it would usually take for polish to dry. I love that they use polish that avoids harsh chemicals. I love that they are easy to communicate with since English is their first language. They are also very friendly, upbeat and easy going and accomodating. I brought my tween daughter in for a standard mani pedi. They did excellent filing and shaping and applying of polish and offered a single nail design for each hand/foot, which is nice and included in standard pricing ($14/15 per mani pedi). I will be returning due to the customer service, safe polish/products and quality of worksmanship but they should maybe offer a quick dry spray or perhaps a drying fan like most places do to really set the nail polish before they say that you're good to go. read more

Lollipop Nail Studio - Hmpf. Like others, although we allowed the polish to dry for a very long period of time, it still rubbed off very easily. : ( - Nail Salons Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Love the concept of this place and the girls do a great job, but the lack of 5 stars is because the place needs a good cleaning. The furniture needs to be cleaned or replaced. The cabinet doors around the shop are quite dirty as well (a little stainless steel cleaner would do the trick). These little things make it a less enjoyable experience as it feels dirty. It won't keep me from coming back as I am a long time customer, but it has prevented me from referring friends to check it out. read more

Ya sorry really wanted to love this place but when I made the appointment over the phone I said I wanted their basic pedicure and then whoever booked my appointment even repeated it at the end to confirm. I got my pedicure which lasted a little over 20 mins and she did not touch my cuticles hardly did anything really but I figured okay this is for sure what I asked for "basic." The nail technician goes to ring me up and charged me $40 then on top of it adds an extra $3 charge for covid-19 she says?! Why wasn't I informed about this on the phone?? I got a 20 min pedicure and spent over $50 with tip. No thanks. read more

I'm impressed! The new location is bright and spacious. I went for a mani/pedi. The woman at the front desk was very warm and friendly. I liked that she continued to walk around to check on us. I also like that they are making their own products now. Denise did a great job! I will be back! read more

Lollipop Nail Studio is located inside The Camp in Costa Mesa in between the Active Ride Shop and the Blackmarket Bakery. The nail color selection here is fantastic. There are so many beautiful colors and shades and there are Vegan nail polish options. Also this store carries a nice selection of colors from Hopscotch Kids which is a brand of nail polish that is safe for children because it is non-toxic and water-based. The children's manicures are 15$ with complimentary nail designs! Everything that is used here is a lot more mild than what is used in most nail salons. You know that pungent smell at some nail salons that make you worry about how many brain cells you're losing each minute? Yeah, you won't find that here! They don't use pure acetone in their nail polish remover even when removing gel nail polish. Everything that they used for me had a much lighter smell and was usually paired with a pleasant scent. The woman who did my nails did an amazing job. She was very gentle and her hand massage was amazing! There's nothing I hate more than getting a manicure and getting skimped on my hand massage. Also, the treatment that is used on your skin during the manicures and pedicures is all organic and feels amazing. She was so meticulous during my manicure and the end result was indicative of that. I was very impressed with the job she did and she was a delight to talk to. I will definitely become a regular at this store! read more

First, let me say. I'm VERY picky. We came here last year because we were in the area. A friend of mine who lives in Costa Mesa referred this salon to us. This is by far the best nail salon I have ever been to. We walked in and it smelled amazing. We didn't have appointments, but the owner, Jackie who sweeter than pecan pie, was accommodating and took us anyways. This salon has NO FLAWS. She creates her own scrubs, everything is sanitary and the technicians all speak english.They have some great polish selections and was very organized. Everyone was sweet and made our visit even more enjoyable. Jackie even bought us cookies because we were celebrating our anniversary. everything was perfect. Yes, this place was a little more expensive than your "typical" salon. However, you get what you pay for. So, for anyone who is complaining or just nagging, you're entitled and go to the nail salon across the street. Don't ruin this for anyone else. Everyone must go and check this amazing salon out. My feet were happy and nails looked great. Thank you Jackie & Lollipop. read more

I just received a gel manicure today from the very talented Natasha! She was diligent and my nails look PERFECT. The owner, Jackie, is as sweet as pie and made sure that my organic lemonade was filled the entire time. Not to mention, the space is so aesthetically pleasing and the mood is very calm. You can tell these ladies really love what they do and I will definitely be back! read more

Handmade nail polish and organic products! Loved it! The pricing was a little higher but worth it for an all natural experience.

So impressed and happy with the outcome of my nails! The lady who did my nails was so nice and didn't even hesitate when I asked her to do a different color on each! Everyone who worked on my moms and I's fingers and toes were so sweet and made us feel special! Love love LOVE this place!!! read more

Highly recommend Lollipop Nail Salon. I loved the fact that you make an appointment and they give you their undivided attention and pay attention to small details. You have peace of mind that all the instruments are sterilized properly and the feet basins are lined with a clean removable liner. My daughter who is very picky, had the manicurist do some nail art that she loved. She took the time to apply it so that it was perfect and to my daughters liking. The customer service is unmatched. This place is a bit pricier than others, but you get what you pay for. I have been looking for so long for the right nail place and I am so happy that I have finally found it. read more

Greeted by the owner who's really sweet. Service friendly and efficient. Nails perfect. Pedicure $35. Organic materials and sterile. Was offered their lemonade and water. Yummy! My favorite part is the foot/leg massage with their homemade almond oil. I encourage places like these to pay for quality materials and to support a local business. I'm definitely coming back. read more

Lollipop Nail Studio - I liiiike it. - Nail Salons Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

What I love... The staff are probably the friendliest people I have ever come across in the industry, they go out of their way to make you comfortable.. The salon is really nice and they have a variety of colors to choose from. The salon is very clean and organic. And the manicure I received lasted a full 7 days which is unheard of with my nails.. What I'm not a fan of.. Parking on the weekends is impossible unless you valet which is fine the place is just so busy on the weekends My pedicure was just ok.. The sofas and chairs are a little awkward especially if you are tall.. My feet were still rough after the pedicure and I spent $50 on the pedicure.. So I probably wouldn't go back for a pedicure but I would go back for a manicure... read more

This place is great. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxing. Smells of roses rather than chemicals. A combination of natural and gentle artificial lighting - rather than bright overhead fluorescents. Good music - not blaring pop hits. A set menu with a handful of options rather than 50 things that have to be added on to give you the perfect experience. If this is your cup of tea or a delicious mocha from the Black Market Bakery right next door - try it. read more

Fantastic! Its on the pricier side but there's a reason....the products and service are phenomenal. You really cant compare. When I get my nails done here they take their time, treat their clients like friends, do a professional job every time, and the polish lasts forever for me. Winner! read more

Perfect! Took my wife here for Valentine's and they squeezed in a small pedi for our 2 year old daughter, served us organic lemonade, and treated my girls like the princesses that they are. read more

First, you can't compare this salon to any other salon. Go in with an open mind or as if you have never gotten a pedi/mani. Appointments are necessary which is great because you will not waste time waiting. The salon is clean, with a floral aroma and a trendy vibe. All soaks, scrubs and oils are homemade and organic. No harsh chemicals, no harsh smells super friendly to anyone who may have allergies. Polishes are 5 free and work extremely well and last. Technicians and staff are warm, friendly and inviting. You will not be bombarded with invasive questions. You set the tone so if you want to relax, they will respect you and if you want to chat it up they will engage with you. Every time I come in I have a wonderful and peaceful experience. I look forward to continue receiving services from Lollipop. read more

Love this place! Ive been checking out a few of these "organic" salons and this is a nice one . Nice staff, great color selections and the tea they offer is really good! And they give you the nail files they use on you, I like that because i can maintain my nails between visits with it. ** 10% off on your services Tuesdays and Wednesdays read more

I was touched by an angel today. Today was my first time in here, I was a little hesitant because the gel manicure was $40 + art but my god was it worth it. They are all ORGANIC. They hand make all of there scrubs oils etc. Melissa is my new go to girl so personable and did an AMAZING job on my nails. I am only going to be coming here. Love it and the nicest most genuine people work here especially the front desk girl, offers you a beverage as soon as you have a seat, comes back a little later on seeing if you need anything else more of your drink, etc. I LOVE it here. read more

My 3 year old daughter and I came here for Mommy n Me pedicures and it didn't disappoint. My daughter felt pampered and taken care of by Valerie who did the cutest polka dots nail art. Colleen gave me the most delicious pedicure with their homemade scrub that made my feet feel soft as a baby's bottom. The overall feel of his nail studio is very clean, relaxed and professional. As a mom, my favorite part is how the use Natural products! read more

Love this place. My granddaughter and I had a special morning , both having manicures. Both Priscilla and Cassandra were so sweet and did beautiful jobs on our nails. I particularly like that they only use non-toxic products. We are both very happy. Thank you. read more

I have been coming to Lollipop about 1 year, absolutely love it! It's such a warm, friendly environment and the decor is super cute. All the artists are super talented, kind, and a joy to spend time with! I love the selection of colors, especially gel (which I average 3weeks and they still look as fab as the day I got them!). Love their commitment to non-toxic products and always feel confident in their cleanliness and sterilization (love the medical grade sterilizer, I work in dentistry so of course I'm nosy about it). And my review wouldn't be complete without a shout out to Michele and her fantastic nail art and overall fab attention to detail. I just adore her! I won't go anywhere else. read more

Not your typical nail salon, and that's what makes it special! Organic products, friendly but professional team and the cutest decor.

Best pedicure I've had in ages. Everything about this darling place is spot on. Clean, friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere and a lovely owner. You get the attention you need, the services are nicely outlined without the mid-way "upsell" you get at most salons. I will be going back! This a great find!!! Value: great Service: great Staff: professional Cleanliness: great - medical grade Make an appointment and enjoy getting pampered. read more

I think my nails might actually be ruined. I did not even stay for the polish because the gel removal was so disturbing. She literally scraped off my nail and rubbed the nail down to the skin- my fingers are raw. I was there for over an hour and they only got to clipping and filing my nails for my manicure, and they were so jagged, uneven, and messy I ultimately decided I could not stay for the full manicure. My finger tips are literally in pain. I had super high hopes for this place but will not be returning and honestly need to go probably get a strengthening treatment or something because my nails are ruined. read more

I enjoy coming here because the products are "clean" and the manicurists are friendly and skilled. I typically only get pedicures. I usually request Cassandra (awesome), but have had other manicurists as well. They are always gentle and I don't cringe when they work around my toes. In my opinion, the slightly higher prices are worth the non-toxic environment and friendly staff. Also, their polish stays on my toes just as long as OPI and other similar brands. read more

I have very mixed reviews about this place. I love the concept and the environment, however the service was horrible for the price point that Lollipop is asking for. My mom and I spent $130, and you can't even ask us how our day is going? You're better off going somewhere where there's actually some personality. read more

This place is adorable and they take great care of you - even when you have a big party (which we did - a bunch of bridesmaids). Mimosas, water, rose petal and milk foot soaks. Love the vibe - very clean, modern and fun. The pedicure was nothing amazing and a little pricey in my opinion, but I have to say the gel manicure was amazing. Great color section and I'm almost a week in and they look brand new. Will definitely be back for that. read more

Lollipop Nail Studio - I mean, so. cute. - Nail Salons Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The ladies here are terrific! I've gone twice now and both times they were accommodating and super friendly. The materials they use for their oils and scrubs smell amazing and the polish is all organic and 5 free. The location is great too, there are quite a few places to visit in The Camp - and free valet before 3:00! It's a little pricey, but worth it if you want a quality experience. read more

I hosted a work event here for some clients and it was perfect! I was able to reserve the salon for a private party which was exactly what I wanted. The manager made sure we had plenty of staff so that everyone felt very attended to. The decor is super cute as is but they provided balloons, set up the food I had catered, tubs for champagne and wine I brought in and made everyone feel comfortable. The set up was perfect for a mixer. Everyone was able to chat and was relaxed. The staff is talented, friendly and super attentive. There are also really cute accessories, books and cards for purchase too which I loved. This would be a perfect place to host a birthday or other events! Everyone was very happy with their services and commented that they will be back! read more
