    Called at 1:00 on Saturday for my mom and I as an early Mother's Day present. They had availability right when I called so I said we would be there in 30 minutes. There is parking in the back you can either enter by Sherwin Williams or on Kahoaloha Ln. My mom got a mani pedi and I got a full set. Although there was a slight miscommunication at first I wanted the nails that was on the sample they had but it was not understood. But it wasn't an issue I loved my nails and how short they were. Usually nail techs don't like to make it short because they think it looks ugly when it's short. My mom loved her mani & pedi and said her legs felt soft after. My nails are still going strong after 6 weeks only my right pointer came off, everything else is going strong and barely any lifting!! Will definitely be back.

    The bottom of my feet feels like a baby's butt!

    Romping around barefoot, will make the soles of your feet cracked and callus. Every couple of years I will soak my feet in Salicylic Acid and 7 days latter my skin starts peeling and exfoliating. Then I'll go for a pedicure. I'm a manicure persons nightmare. Walked in today and asked them to make the soles of my feet feel like a baby's butt. Loved the service I receive today. * Soaked and scrubbed my feet MULTIPLE of times and removed most of the exfoliating skin. Most salons give up after two attempts and resort to more aggressive exfoliating techniques. Nani's will not do aggressive exfoliating techniques that causes pain and rawness to the skin. They will not do blading, which is illegal in Hawaii. * Most salons will try to do a upsell of paraffin hot wax, but she did not because she knew it was in effective with chemical peels like Salicylic Acid. * Gently removed three years of cuticles without being overly aggressive and left a clean edge. * Detailed oriented. This is the only salon that has ever filed the ridges of my toenails smooth. All the other nail salons only filed the tip of my nails. * Hygienic. Basin to soak feet is lined with a plastic liner and thrown away after each use. Tools are soaked in disinfectant after each use. The Drummondville file tip was thrown away after use. * Family owned and operated for 10 years- husband, wife and nephew. The three work together as a team. Wife was trained at a high-end nail salon and her technique reflects that. * Knowledgeable, honest and does not aggressively upsell. Another customer showed them a picture. The wife stated that there was two ways of achieving it. One was with sparkle nail polish, and there is no extra charge, or put the sparkles in the gel which would be five dollars more. I asked if I could add sparkles, so she added two more layers of nail polish without charging me and told me that the nail polish needed time to dry. So I spent 20 minutes relaxing in the massage chair. - Pedicure massage chairs are at an angle so it does not promote conversation/ socialization among customers. - I have had better foot, toes and leg massage but I did not purchase the spa or deluxe package. - Lots of repeat customers, so an appointment is highly recommended. * Free parking in the back of the building but no safe walkway to front of store. Metered street parking in front of store.

    We were doing our senior mani/pedi elsewhere in Honolulu until a change in ownership. Glad we found and checked out Nani Nails Salon. Jenny serviced me and she's excellent. She does nails like how I regularly get in San Francisco. Nice to find a new shop that we'll be coming back regularly. Jenny is personable, knowledgeable, careful and attentive to details. Check them out!

    Nani nails salon is such a gem! With free parking in the back of their location you can't go wrong. The owner is super good at what he does and his prices are fair. I always make sure to call ahead of time to see what the wait is or if they can squeeze me in. They normally can always accommodate. They also give 10% discount or something like that to University of Hawaii at Mānoa students if you have a student ID which is so nice. I wish I knew that when I was a student lol This has been my new nail spot since moving to this area. Mahalo for always hooking ya gorl up!

    Jelly gel manicure

    I love this salon! My tail tech absolutely perfected the shape I was wanting and gave me the best recommendations on color (I'm very indecisive). I normally leave most salons with mixed feelings but I couldn't be happier on how my nails turned out! 10/10

    Love this salon! Great staff and their work is very neat. Received lots of compliments on my nails done by them.

    Uneven

    Here's literally me crying from this set. I had to ask to get the paint redone twice, as whoever did my nails cannot do a French tip to save their life. I have graduation tomorrow and these nails are painful. This set took more than three hours to put on, he drilled away my entire cuticles, and when the total came out to very different than what they originally said, they could not justify or give me an itemized receipt. The prices on their board ARE NOT TRUE. Tell me if these nails look $90 worth. NOT. Will not be coming back.

    Blue nails

    Made an appointment with them for Birthday acrylics and I couldn't be more happy. I had an idea in mind, and my technician was more than accommodating. The edges of the nails were cleaned straight.

    Marble inspired, butterfly stickers, and this is my fill!

    This is my favorite nail salon! This is my 4th visit and everything is cleaned before your sat down and precautions are very well done, not once felt uncomfortable..they know how to use the tools properly and will not hurt at all this is something I always had issues with other salons but never Nani Nails. Also, the massage for a deluxe pedicure was unbelievably great! I'm so happy with the end outcome

    Hardened acrylic stuck to the underside of my nail.

I initially asked for natural looking thicker brows, but she seemed hesitant to do them thick the first time, so I asked for thicker ones during my touch up. She disagreed with what I wanted. That's fine, but the way she responded was rude and made me feel bad for asking. I also had been told the touch-up was free (the website says this too), but they tried to charge me an extra few hundred. It only got corrected after I spoke up twice (they doubled down on the price the first two times I asked , which felt sneaky). The experience was so bad I won't be going back there.

Guest parking is straight ahead to the end, turn right. Or they have several stalls on other floors which they let you know when you receive confirmation on your appointment.

I come here to see Hideko for my eyebrows. My friend had recommended her after I admired her work, and she didn't disappoint. The previous person I used at another place retired so I was happy to find Hideko who took her time asking me questions on what I wanted, liked, didn't like, and offered good suggestions to make some changes. Relaxing to lay down and she has clean, pleasant smelling hands- don't laugh- some people do not- and has a very gentle touch so I'm never nervous. The anesthesia is applied and takes about 20 min to kick in. Hideko then explains what she's going to do- and she does this every time- no matter how many times I've been back for touch ups. I love that. The procedure took about 45 minutes for me. Loved the way it turned out and she then explained what would happen to my brows and not to worry, it was normal. She gives a little packet with pictures of what brows will look like over the next couple weeks along with some bacitracin to apply each day to prevent infections. The touch ups may be scheduled for the following year and they are very good about sending reminders for the annual. I believe the touch ups about $200 but it may have increased due to the way things are nowadays. I'm seeing her next week so can update this review. Mahalo Hideko and Salon Island Beauty!

    I'd been curious about getting my eyebrows done for a long time but was hesitant because I use…read moretretinoin and had seen so many regret/removal videos. A friend of mine had hers done a few years ago and said it was one of the best things she's ever done, which finally convinced me to go for it. I found Beauty Babe by Michele on Yelp, and her all five-star reviews immediately stood out. Even so, it still took me a few months to make the appointment (it's hard to pause tretinoin!), but I'm SO glad I did. Michele is exactly as everyone says--sweet, humble, and incredibly talented. She took her time during both the initial procedure and the follow-up, listened carefully, and made adjustments until everything was perfect. I honestly couldn't be happier with my brows. I still use tretinoin, and even if my brows fade a bit faster, I'm totally fine coming back for touch-ups. Her pricing is very reasonable for the quality of her work. Highly recommend Michele--you won't regret it!

    Thank goodness for the Yelp app, which helped me find this stellar business listing, Beauty Babe. I…read morewas impressed with the owner's (Michele Malek) experience, photo gallery, response time, service offerings, and convenient location. Since leaving the workforce over ten years ago, I imagined waking up, rolling out of bed, not doing my make-up (although I minimally used eye and lip cosmetics due to the nature of my job), and looking decent. However, about seven years ago, I decided to try microblading my thinning and shortening eyebrows, and my husband lovingly teased me about having Rottweiler eyebrows. The painless semi-permanent microbladed eyebrows usually lasted two to three years, with proper annual to no maintenance. I was set for a maintenance appointment when I suddenly discovered that my usual artist had retired. I was left in a lurch because I planned to get the maintenance done before traveling domestically and abroad from late last year. I contacted Beauty Babe to inquire about her microblading and ombré powder tattooing services, appointment availability, and cost. Michele's friendliness and reassurance for assistance came through her voice. She also described the difference between microblading and ombré powder eyebrows, and I quickly agreed to book an appointment to see for myself. On the appointment day, Michele sent me a message regarding directions, parking lot availability, and security in her salon. I didn't take any interior photos for privacy because there were other clients and artists, even though the salon had privacy partitions and separate rooms for tattooing. After measuring my eyebrows, Michele applied makeup to my faded eyebrows to show me the difference between the microblading and ombré powder techniques. My only concern was having my eyebrows look natural and not dramatic. She did a few tweaks, which enhanced the shape, applied the topical anesthetic, and then did her magic. Within a couple of hours, I emerged from the salon with perfect and natural-looking eyebrows or, as they say, "eyebrows on fleek." She gave me an After Care package with instructions, mild liquid soap, tissues, a small tube of Vitamin A&D ointment, and yummy Ferrero Rocher candies. I look forward to an initial touch-up appointment within the next six to eight weeks, just before I'll be "on the road" again. Michele's excellent artistry has saved me time and made looking decent after waking up in the mornings even more enjoyable.

I normally have strong, healthy hair, but the owner left the perming solution on too long while she went to finish other things. Now, more than two weeks later, my lashes are still damaged beyond styling, rough to the touch, and my brows feel like brittle horse hair. What shocked me most is that the owner never even apologized. Instead, she suggested putting more chemicals on my already destroyed lashes and brows, which would only make the damage worse. On top of that, she constantly pushes products and treatments--even ones unsuitable for sensitive skin--making the whole experience feel more like a sales pitch than a professional service. To make matters worse, many of the positive reviews you see here are incentivized with discounts, which makes them misleading. The only credit I can give is to the esthetician who does facials--she actually knows her craft and recommended a product that worked wonders on my skin. Unfortunately, because of the owner's lack of responsibility, skill, and professionalism, I will not be returning. If you care about the health of your lashes, brows, or skin, please be cautious before booking here. Answer for the CARELESS owner: It's honestly mind-boggling how you refuse to admit the terrible work you did on my lashes and eyebrows. They're not just "over-curled" -- they are burned in spots, and I am now missing many lashes thanks to your careless work. Yes, you offered for another technician to do them another day, but I had scheduled my appointment for that day. I'm a busy woman, I don't have time to sit around in a salon every other day because you can't manage your schedule or use proper products. You should be ashamed for trying to justify what you did. There is no excuse. The truth is simple: you are a terrible technician, and clients should know the risk they're taking by trusting you with their lashes or brows.

I chose Yuriko and would not go to anyone else because: Artistry 1. She is an artist. Her work shown in photos is even, smooth, enhancing, and natural. Her color choices are good. I'm cautious about anything permanent, I trust her. I get compliments on my brows and eyeliner. So far, 5 people have asked me for her contact info. 2. She individualizes each person's procedure and listens to what end effect is desired. She noticed that I raise my eyebrows a lot in conversation, so adjusted my eyebrow design to work with it (so I wouldn't look shocked/crazy). 3. I'm not a stunner, but Yuriko has helped my face look like a put together version - AND I don't have to do my brows or eyeliner daily. Experience 1. Yuriko has years of experience and training from both Japan and the US. 2. She continues to keep up with industry standards and products. She goes out of state for training, product shows. Professionalism 1. Yuriko measures, consults w you, explains, and we agree on what's going to be done before she starts. 2. She's warm and approachable. e.g., I am comfortable telling her I need more numbing cream during the process. 3. She provides pre-and post-instructions before the procedure. 4. Her prices are reasonable. Facilities 1. Free parking 2. Clean and cozy 3. Nearby bathroom available I'm glad I found Yuriko. She is sweet, caring, artistic, and approachable.
