    I absolutely love this family-owned nail salon in the North Shore! Amanda and Tim made me and my daughter (8 years old) feel so welcome and cared for--they're incredibly kind and professional. Our nails are perfect and we picked matching colors :) Mahalo Amanda and Tim!!

    Sadly I moved but had to sing the praised of this dynamic duo! They have become an extended family to me! This is THE BEST NAIL SALON ON OAHU!!! Very affordable... takes venmo, cash, and credit! Amanda and Tim have never caused pain, knocked me with a drill, or rush the service they give their clients! Be prepared to feel pampered during your deluxe spa pedicure. No more ingrowns... always silky smooth soles, and wonderful conversation! Amanda will do everything in her power to make sure that your inspo nail design pic comes to life! She KNOWS her regulars color choices down to the glitter or matte finish. Tim is the most gentle soul... and uses his drill with the whisper of touches! Waxing services simple, nearly painless, and on par with any other wax shop. I only hope i can find someone in Kansas like this team.. because there are even higher standards and big shoes to fill.

    Thank you, Amanda and Tim for always providing excellent customer service!!!! I am never disappointed with the level of excellence you provide.

    NAILS MAX IS #1 IN OUR BOOK!!!!

    I'll say it again. This is, hands down, THE BEST NAIL SALON ON OAHU!! I'm a professional entertainer. When people see my nails, not only do they see my flare for the exquisite, but they see the care and expertise that went into the look. I get comments all the time!! Bonus: They know their clients by name and if you are new, they get to know you. Service is my thing if you read my reviews. Amanda and Tim do personalized service because they care about who you are and what you want. In my book, that is what makes any establishment worthy of repeat customers! They are husband and wife and work tirelessly everyday at Nails Max, just upstairs from Jack In The Box. Honest... They deserve a medal for being kind and considerate of people from all walks of life. I've seen it. In my years of reviewing businesses, this level of customer care is rare. All who I've seen walk through their doors is welcomed with a smile and a keen desire to serve. They bless everyone who comes up those stairs and in their doors. This is what makes them unique in the marketplace! Absolutely! Come on in and see for yourself!! Call and make your appointment soon. Walk-ins are welcomed too!

    I got an incredible pedicure from Nail Max. I feel bad I did not get to know the woman's name who did my toes, but she did an excellent job! I got a fun festive 40th bday bling!!! It's so epic. These are some of the best, most beautiful toe nails I've ever had done. The leg massage and care was phenomenal too. Will definitely be going back!

    New favorite!! My little sister and I came in last minute today, Amanda and her husband got us in right away and were so accommodating of us being on a time crunch. The attention to detail, Amanda picked out the cutest color for me and did my sister's just like the photo!! SO clean and comfortable in there, chill vibes and good conversation they even let my sister pick what to watch which I thought was so sweet. I'm obsessed with the results and will be back!! 10/10 recommend

    What I requested...

    Always a treat with Amanda & Tam! Clean, efficient, and talented. What I asked for & what I got. Love it! Happy Christmas!

    After almost 3 years off the island, I couldn't wait to return to my favorite nail salon and I was NOT disappointed!!! The salon was updated and had a plethora of new nail colors.. just about any color you could want under the sun. Tim and Amanda were their cheerful and awesome selves and in great spirits! Tim is always my go-to for my nail needs and Amanda for ANYTHING pedicure!!! I never feel rushed and have always been satisfied. This salon is immaculate!!! I NEVER have to worry about unsanitary conditions as Tim and Amanda are always cleaning and sterilizing. Bigger salons are not always better and definately in this case, great things come in small packages!! Highly recommend! Would give 1000 stars if I could!

    The best nail salon on the island that we have found. Also excellent waxing too. Amanda is wonderful and her attention to good quality can't be beat.

    Love my nails done by Mrs. Amanda.
    Donecia L.

    I am a regular customer here and have been for several years. I receive excellent service EVERYTIME I come in. Mr. Tim and Mrs. Amanda is very welcoming, polite, and professional. They make excellent and creative suggestions when I can't choose my colors. I feel like they know me very well, and I will continue referring my friends, family, and clients to THIS salon. I would also like to say that they keep the shop very clean. Thank you for the great customer service you provide for my family and I.

    Brianna B.

    Called last minute to get a fill & got an appointment right away. It was also done quickly & just how I wanted it. I told them not to touch the length or shape since I'm trying to grow my natural nails out, & they are the first place who actually listened. Will definitely be coming here!

    Chona T.

    Love their works every time. Amanda is simply amazing! Love how she shapes my nails it looked so chic. I have tried several nail salons in Wahiawa but Nails Max is by far the best area for me. Clean, professional and friendly owners.

I have had many facials over the years all over the country due to being a military family and pcs'ing. So I feel like I have truly had every type of facial out there. However, I will say hands down Lola provided the most amazing experience I have ever had. I enjoyed a microdermabrasion facial with derma-planing and every bit of it was heaven. From all the aromatherapy, soothing sounds, service itself, dreamy head/neck/shoulders massage, warm towels and skincare with discussion was all exactly what I would ever want in a facial and then some. I will most certainly be back!!

    If I can give sissy a 1000 stars I would! She's very kind hearted and overall an amazing person…read more You can see how much passion she has in what she does and for her to be able to share her knowledge with others is awesome! I recently took her course 1 day work shop and beginners course. She explains how a typical appointment would be like from the time the client walks in until they walk out the door. She went in depth about the anatomy of the skin, technique, color theory, different needles and depth, and different pressures, different ways of shading/outlining, how to take before & after and the entire process of mapping etc) Coming from someone who has no experience with a machine, never had any background in beauty, I walked out the first class feeling confident in myself that it is possible for me to do this. Before I left she had me practice on latex which I gave her a full set of eyebrows which surprised myself and sissy. Shortly after I left I practiced and practiced day in and day out & let me tell you my first sheet of latex was not that great (but as expected as someone who has no experience) I texted sissy a photo and asked for her advice and within minutes she's replies with tips for me on how to better my work. It was too saturated, you can tell my pressure in some areas was heavy & the pixels was not there. After following her tips, the next set I did was much better than before. Moral of the story for this is that there is infinite support with sissy. She wants to see every student succeed in this industry. I had a demo day we're sissy shows me exactly what goes on. I'm a visual learner, so seeing how it's done from start to finish really put things in perspective of what to expect during an appointment. 7/16/21 I had my model day and I was beyond nervous, but she calmed me down and was encouraging me that I can do this and I believed her. I felt at ease knowing she was there supervising me. I'm gonna post photos of my two models below and this will show you that will the right instructor and the amount of time you put in yourself to get better every day, this is the outcome! Sissy is a great mentor and I am so happy I went with her. She believes in you as a person and upcoming artist even when you don't. Please head over to pretty in ink on IG and either text or dm her if you would like to be a client of hers or do training with her!!! She does much more than just powder ombré brows!!!

Marley is such an amazing teacher, she answers all of your questions with ease, and gives you all the knowledge you need to succeed. I feel so confident after taking her class. It was not only super informative, it was FUN! You also get a cute starter kit with supplies! It was very clean, I felt extremely comfortable in her class even though right now we're dealing with Covid-19 restrictions. I also decided to get .5 infusion done on my lips and she's seriously a pro. My lips came out so nice! Would recommend 10/10

Walked in and was immediately welcomed and taken care of by such kind people. My brow artist Ilihia was incredibly sweet, professional, attentive, and really listened to what I wanted. I was pretty indecisive at a point and asked for her professional opinion and my brows came out absolutely perfect! They're beautifully shaped, clean, and natural-looking! You can truly tell they care about their work and their clients. They have impeccable attention to detail and work is outstanding, and I left feeling so confident and happy with my brows.

Ilihia never rushed the process & took the time to really listen to what my daughter wanted, thoughtfully translating her vision into beautiful brow artistry. The result? Perfectly balanced, beautifully shaped brows with a soft, lifted arch that flatters her face & adds just the right amount of definition. The tint is a warm, soft brown that gently deepens her natural brow color without looking harsh or "fake." Her brows now look fuller, more defined, & very natural. And those previously sparse areas have come back to life! The color is also beautifully matched to her hair & skin tone, which is so important when you're going for that effortless, natural beauty look. The transformation is subtle but absolutely beautiful. Her brows bring a glow to her features, making her entire face look brighter & more polished. And her beautiful silver-hazel eyes...definitely enhanced with a POP & just the right touch of mermaid shimmer! It's like she's lit from within, & we are absolutely here for it! This was my daughter's first time getting a brow service, & the beautiful ladies at Taesthetics made the entire experience exceptionally welcoming & comfortable from beginning to end. From check-in to check-out, it was all love. Everyone was genuinely interested in getting to know both my daughter & me, & throughout the appointment, we were checked in on by all the gals, including owner Taylin. There is such a positive, genuinely caring atmosphere here--it was an absolute delight to experience. One thing that really stood out was the individualized attention. There was never a feeling of being "stacked" with other clients or rushed through the appointment. My daughter received one-on-one attention & truly felt like a VIP. That level of care makes such a difference, especially when it's someone's very first brow service. For a first brow experience, I truly couldn't have asked for a better one for my daughter. The combination of artistry, attention to detail, genuine care, & the warm atmosphere at Taesthetics is something truly special. We are so happy with the experience &, of course, those gorgeous brows!
