This place was great. The environment was relaxing. Everything was nicely organized, they didn't have nail polish or tools all over the place. They sterilized all their tools after use. It was my first time here and I enjoyed it. They constantly asked if I was okay, we're things the way I wanted it. I had a full set and pedicure.The massage with my pedicure was one of the best I've had. Thanks Leanne And it was just the basic pedicure. I could only imagine if I had upgraded. Angela, who is the new owner did my nails. She was patient, helpful and always checked to see if what she did was too my liking. Especially since I was doing stiletto nails for the first time. I wouldn't mind coming back again. Overall good experience read more

I love Mimi nails and everyone who works here. They are kind wonderful technicians who put care and detail in all they do. I was there for another pedicure and a customer tried to start a situation. Ellen and Tony handled it with professionalism and made sure their guests were taken care of. They were completely in the right. I gained even more respect for this family run business. read more

I really liked my nails I got acrylics but I also got my eyebrows waxed and the end result looked pretty good but later in the around my eyebrows still really stung and they were extremely red and puffy and the next day there were burn marks all around them. I don't think I have a picture but I will check if my mom does so I can upload it read more

They are the sweetest people and the lady in there has done my nails twice now. They are so pretty and they don't over charge you. Their massage chairs are actually the best ones I've been on too!! read more

AMAZING!!!! The staff is so friendly and they provide the best customer service! Not many places do a good ombré but I had good faith that Mimi's would have it looking perfect! Ellen did an amazing job and she is so friendly and easy to talk to. I am so happy with how my nails came out. I would 10/10 recommend going to mimis! read more

Mimi Nails is awesome! I have been to many nail salons and although the process is usually the same, it's the little things that make a great experience. I called around 8:45 a.m. to book an appointment. The very polite person who answered the phone told me I could come in around 9:45-10:00 a.m. I arrived around 9:30 a.m. just in case there were other walk-ins. (Usually when you call these types of nail salons will tell you to "come now, someone can help you.") There were 3 technicians already working on customers. I waited about 15 minutes or so, then the young woman asked if I was ready! So on-time! She did an awesome job! And during the whole time, she kept checking on me if I was ok! Then I got my pedi, the woman took her time. (Usually they rush because there's other customers waiting) The salon is very clean and they have a sanitary practice. They also tell customers "honestly" that they are unable to provide services. (Rather than telling you to have a seat and wait unnecessarily) I finally found somewhere I will be coming back all the time! Lots of parking, all major credit cards accepted! read more

Great customer service and the workers are really nice there. I got pedicures done here at least 4x and they were ALL GREAT ! They never disappoint with my pedi's ! read more

Awesome pedicure experience, glad they were able to take my sister and I in on a Saturday afternoon. I will definitely be back!

Angela is awesome! I never feel rushed with her nor do I feel like she's taking forever. Quality work at a great price!

I really want to give this place more than one star, but I can't because of hygiene issues. The staff are always so friendly and nice. I've had my nails done 3 times there and each time they did a pretty decent job, but unfortunately each time they also used dirty nail files and dirty towels.The last time I went, I got fungus on my nail afterwards. I have never in my life had fungus on my nail, so that's pretty bad. I would highly suggest if you decide to go there, ask them to use new tools on you. But seriously just stay away. read more

The best salon I've been to so far! I went in for a pedicure and the staff was very nice and they made me and my laugh a whole lot. They were super generous and took their time when I came to massaging and doing my toes. I went to a couple of salons before I went to mimis abs by far mimis is my favorite! I would definitely recommend to a friend and I am for sure coming back read more

I have nothing but good things to say about the service at Mimi. I call in advance, but they always manage to have room for our group of three to five. They give the best and longest leg massages when we get pedicures. The only downside is that some of their nail polishes dried out, so the selection isn't as large as it initially appears to be. But in the grand scheme of things, they have a lot of other colors so it's really nbd. read more

I come here all the time with my mom and sisters. Usually I get regular pedi and gel mani and I always feel like they do such an amazing job while also being super reasonable. Today I asked Angela to do a special Girls' Day themed gel manicure and it turned out so nice! I brought some pictures so she could help me customize what I wanted and it turned out amazing. I have tricolored little dango and lovely plum blossoms perfect for the occasion. The whole set was $50 for custom gel mani + tip. So worth it. Happy Girls Day! read more

Called for an appointment kind of the last minute and they accommodated. A nice young man did my pedicure today. He was thorough and did great job. Massage was a bit hard but I can't handle shiatsu. He adjusted as I grimaced. Lol. My toes look clean. I like the squared off toe. Love the paraffin treatment and all the lotion. read more

I seriously love this place . 2 months ago, i was at pearlridge shopping around the mall as usual. I decided I wanted to get my nails done but all the salons inside the mall were extremely overpriced. I hoped onto yelp and found MiMi Nails. Many other people listed there prices on here & for a full acrylic set for $30? you cant beat that. The first time I went I was super pleased with the customer service, so when my mom asked me if I knew any good nail salons I knew where to recommend her too. Yesterday I had gotten my nails done ( the pink set ) by Angela. She was super careful with my nails. My mom also asked one of the ladies about the lash extensions and only go by appointments because Angela only does them ( just a fyi ) . Anyways , after my great experiences here I'll definitely be returning! Love the staff here so welcoming read more

Been a loyal customer for many many years! I live in Kailua and drive all the way to Pearl city to get my nails done. I am rough on my nails but the owner Mimi always takes the extra time to make sure I'm happy and that things are right. The employees act like a family and it's wonderful to walk in and see everyone smiling, happy, and joking with each other. Five stars for everything, quality, environment, experience, and customer service! read more

My Gelish nails were peeling and I needed a manicure... STAT! Called for a walk in and they said they could take me. There were only two other customers when we arrived. I should have known to go somewhere else. The tech took a drill to my nails! Why?? Usually they're soaked and scraped off. When I protested, he mumbled something and kept going. He also used his fingernail to scrape off my old gel. I asked him to use a tool but I think you can guess how that went. It was really difficult to communicate. The mani looked okay and the price was decent. Not worth risking infection or having brittle nails though. read more

Found a new place i like to get my nails done. Good price for good service and good job. Its been one week and my gel nails are still on my fingers. I know thet are supposed to last long but last time at a different place it came off in a few days. Also my feet are happy. The girl did a wonderful job with the massage and cleaning and scrubbing my feet ans legs. For gel finger nails, and toes with art and all the massage and cleaning = $65. read more

Mimi Nails Salon - Pretty design. - Nail Salons Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Let me start by saying that this place is completely filthy from top to bottom. Totally unsanitary! The lady next to me was getting her feet callus skin removed with what looked like a giant food grater and her skin was all over the floor. I had to sit next to that while cringing at how disgusting it all looked. The walls are filthy and the sliding door to the bathroom is almost falling apart. People are eating in the back and just oblivious to the dirty floors and dust. I am sorry but I will NEVER come here again. I have to run home and get a tetanus shot bc I am sure something was on that filthy bowl. Yes it may sound like a harsh review but look at my pictures and its all accurate. I didn't see no sanitation of the instruments used on the lady with the cheese grater. Gross! read more

Mimi Nails Salon - White, powder, coffin shaped full set. - Nail Salons Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Walked in at 9:45am wanting a full set w/Gelish Polish and a design. I was told there were only 2 techs who were able to do acrylics and the wait was 30 minutes. I decided to wait and was finally taken at 11:00am. My nails took an hour and 20 minutes from start to finish. Many walk-Ins came in and she continued to take her time which I appreciated. Most salons try to get you out as soon as possible and do a horrible job. I have really tiny nails and the tech who worked on me did an AMAZING job! The wait was well worth it and I would definitely refer friends to this salon. I do recommend making an appointment before coming in. read more

I've been coming to this salon for years, even when it was previously known as T&D Nails. This place is great - cheap, fast, friendly! Manicures from $15 and Pedicures from $25. They even have a point card too, so the more you come you're one pedicure (or manicure) closer to anything 50% off! read more

We called ahead of time to see how much it was to take off acrylic nails. We were told $5 so I came in to do so. Lady started taking it off and it was hurting so I would pull away. Another lady came n started taking off on my other hand. She was a lot more gentle then the original lady but it was uncomfortable. Coming to my last nail on my pinky the original lady was trying to pry it off and I could tell she went under my nail so I pulled away again and said it hurts! So the other lady finished it. After all that i washed my hands and sure enough she went under my nail. I was so over it I went and payed $5. Then the lady comes to me and says so sorry I'm new but was supposed to charge you $10. Not sorry I made your nail bleed but sorry can you pay more. I was like NO you made me bleed I'm not paying anymore. She tried to explain that's how we take off nails but no you could've soaked them to remove also. I told her that and she said you should've told me. I said I don't work here you do and you should've known better of how to take off my nails. She says we do it this way all the time so I said and you make peoples nails bleed all the time? I have never been to a nail place like this with this kind of service! I would not recommend this place to anyone!!! She said she's new that's even more worse they have amateurs doing services. They should tell the customers that I'm new and let us decide if we want a newbie to work on us. The service was the worst ever! I wish I got her name. I don't even want to give a star cause it doesn't deserve one! read more

At the last minute I called to see if they were able to a full lash set. They close at 7. But this owner was so accommodating she stayed pass 8 to do my lashes and a set of nails. She was fantastic. This is my new to go to salon. Thanks mimi! read more

I made a reservation 3 weeks in advanced because they said they were so booked when I asked for an appointment that week. I got there and they put me on a massage chair that didnt work. The lady said it worked "sometimes". There were other chairs open, but maybe they didn't work too? There were people coming in to see if they could get a pedicure but they kept getting rejected and leaving very angry. I would be too because I was the only one in the salon at the time with all the chairs empty. The lady was slow and kept talking in Vietnamese. Normally at other salons they talk and work, but she had to stop and talk. The massage was just her rubbing the lotion in to my skin. The paraffin wax she put on got left on too long and got cold. She did a great job at painting my nails though. Normally they get it all over and have to clean it up but she did it good on the first paint. No, snobbish attitudes here, but very slow work and broken massage chairs. I felt bad for all those walk ups that got rejected from a pretty empty salon. read more

I came as a walk-in, they were so busy but got to me really quick. I got a pedicure first then they did my nails. I LOVE IT! I believe his name was Andy or something along those lines, i have such bad memory :/ but when I wanna do my nails again I'll definitely come back here & ask for him. He did exactly what I asked for and he was so nice! LOVE LOVE LOVE ITTTTTT! read more

Best manicure I've ever had! Thank you Tony for being gentle with my hands, I've had many bad experiences so this was refreshing. I will definitely be coming back! read more

So good and bad. This was my first time visiting this salon, I chose it based on reviews and location since it's less than 10 minutes from my house. The good: I called as soon as they opened and made an appointment. When I walked in it was less than 5 minutes before I was in a chair. My technician took her time, she was sweet and made sure I got what I wanted as far as nail color, style and massage. The bad: she cut me! she trimmed the cuticles so low on most fingers that they burned when putting on the gel polish and every time she sprayed acetone/alcohol on me. She cut my pointer finger so bad it was bleeding and then she put some sealant thing on it that stung so bad I nearly screamed. Now the polish, I love the color but she painted my fingers as well. She did not clean the edges so I have gel polish where it shouldn't be. All in all, I would go back, price was great. I think next time I visit I'll request a different technician. read more

NEVER GOING BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I made an appointment to get a pedicure at Mimis. I get there about 3:55 since my appointment is a 4:00 and they put me in a chair right away. Only problem is they're doing pedicures on 2 walk-ins so all the technicians are taken. I figured they'd be wrapping up soon so I just sit in my massage chair with my feet soaking and wait. 5 minutes goes by. Then 10. Then 20. They finally get to me 30 minutes later. My feet are like prunes by now. They were very polite AFTER they finally got to me but I would have liked a little notice that the people before me were going to take a while and not just left to soak in cold water. I've never known a salon to make the clients with appointments wait while they service walk-ins. The rest of my appointment was uneventful. The pedicure was decent but the manicure they gave me was awful. The polish chipped after 2 days. They also took so long to get to me that by the time they were finishing my nails, they were also closing and I definitely felt like they were trying to shove me out the door. Suffice to say I won't be visiting them again. read more

I had such a pleasant experience at Mimi's this past week on my visit to Hawaii. I was in search of a place that had spa mani/pedi service and could do Shellac, so I hopped on over to the local mani/pedi spot close to where I was staying for the week. I have to say, I have never had my nails done by men before, and was a little skeptical when two men seated me in my massage chair and began my services. But let me tell you, it ended up being one of the best mani/pedi jobs I have EVER gotten! They treated my nails with care, precision, and love. I got the cutest sparkly dipped shellac nails on my hands and a lovely standard coat of red on my toes. Their tools were clean, although I didn't feel like the rest of the shop reflected their cleanliness and attentiveness to detail. That was the one thing that could be improved upon and I think would greatly help with their client retention. I thought the prices were very reasonable, the chat with the men was enjoyable, and it didn't take long at all. i would definitely recommend this spot for a quick mani/pedi, no appointment required. You won't regret it! read more

Mimi Nails Salon - So pretty! shellac'ed nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

New owners!!! Where'd Angela go??!! Leanne who I've always gone to do my pedicures with is still there. Although I guess with the new owners, the basic pedi now doesn't include callus removal. Wtf?! And no more of that tiger balm that makes your legs feel cool and tingly. Girl that did my nails wasn't very friendly. Tried to talk story but only got one word answers. She charged me $45 for a fill, Angela used to charge me much less at only $30. She did a sloppy job, didn't apply much color, can see streaks in nails, my real nail is separating from one of the acrylics, asked for coffin got more of a square. I'm so disappointed. Someone tell me where Angela went!!! Only improvement is new owner has waaaaay more employees so your chance of getting seen with a walk in is high. read more

Today I went Mimi nails for the first time. And Emily did my nails. And this was very first time in Hawaii since moved here.salon is quiet and clean which I was really comfortable being there for a while to get my nails done. And I carried my daughters since they wanted to come with me. And no problem! The guy works there offer them a water and let them being Comfortable which really make me feel this is really good customer service for moms. Sometimes I carry my kids and they don't really want to sit there. Anyways, I had my acrylic on and took them off that took a little time because it was thick. And she did good to take it off. Then I chose color and design. They have big price sign on the walls but when I asked about the designs she clearly told me how much this or that will be which is great since I'm very picky. They have some new type of colors also. And charms they have full case. So you can chose whatever you like:) And she really did good job and I normally go random places and never asked their names. But I wanted to come back here so I got a card and her name!my nails are not think and looks very smooth! And Shine like I wanted to!! Thank you Emily and see you soon!!! And other ladies who works there was very friendly and nice!!! I would def go back and this is my salon! read more

Okay, just got back from seeing my favorite operator, Leeann, but a much different vibe in the salon with new owners. I was used to Angela, her adorable baby girl, her husband, and the other ladies (I do worship Leeann!), but new owners are a little unfriendly and stiff. If Leeann leaves, I'm totally gone...and I want to see Angela! My love affair with Mimi Mails continues! I called on a Saturday afternoon to see if I could get a pedi because I couldn't stand my ugly outgrown toenails. I was told to come in and true to their word, I was seated immediately. As always, my pedicure was amazing! I feel so pampered every single time I go there! Btw - I travel a lot and have had pedicures on the mainland, but Hawai'i has the best!

I found my new go-to nail place ^_^ After searching on yelp for a new nail place ( the one i have been going to for the last year and a half was beginning to get a lil pricey for me) I found MiMi's and decided to try it out after reading all the great reviews. Well long story short i only paid 85.00 for nail soak off ($5.00) luxury MiMi nail pedi ($40.00) and gelish gradation ($30.00) needless to say I walked out of there one SATISFIED mama ^_^ I'm sssssooooo going back to this place read more
