It is close to home so we decided to support our neighborhood establishments. First time my husband had a pedicure he was charged $65. Second time we both went and he had the same Spa pedicure and I did too. I also did a Gel nail polish. What we do not like is they ask as you are sitting there about removing your callous which we thought it was part of the pedicure but, they end up nickel and diming you for everything?! I asked on what they are doing as we go along because I have sensitive skin I do not like scented lotions etc., they put my feet in a hot bag of liquid which I learned it was paraffin. Ok it is fine but upon the bill total we were shocked to hear it was $180.!! My husband asked for a basic pedicure, so I had to question how the price was so high. I was told of all that was done and without our knowledge. On top of that their website states Tax Included yet they added everything up and even said, "Plus tax" so VERY DISAPPOINTED in the end. It's like their own little scam to add on services then charge you in the end. Will not recommend this place if asked nor will be ever going back again. read more

My nails fell off within a few days of my appointment. Very disappointed, poor quality and not worth the price. Won't be returning. I also called the Manager and she said she would re-do my nails for free but i feel like no point going back.. read more

Royal Nails - Monday April 27th when i get my nails done - Nail Salons Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I was on a tight timeframe with a newborn feeding every 2 hours. They took me as a walk-in for mani pedi (gel) and did them simultaneously so i was done in 1 hours. Tina was very sweet, gentle and did a beautiful chrome clear gel pedicure. Her coworker i didn't catch her name but she did a great manicure! read more

Royal Nails - Chrome Clear basic gel mani - Nail Salons Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I never leave reviews but this was needed. Me,my mom and my sister walked in planning on getting our toes done together and I planned to get my nails done. They immediately took my sister which had my mom waiting about 30 mins when she wanted to leave the same time as her. All of this is irrelevant to my experience. I asked for short French. I ended up waiting 30-45 mins while 2 nail techs were sitting on their phones. A male ended up waving me over and didn't even ask for what I wanted. I showed him a picture and he brushed me off like he knew what he was doing. HE cut the nail tip before confirming the length with me, while chatting with his other friend. He continued to file and buff (obviously rushing) and I noticed he cut me about 5 times. I didn't realize how bad it was bc I do have a high pain tolerance but when he told me to go wash my hands almost all my cuticles were BLEEDING. I should've spoke up for myself but here I am. He didn't ask me if I was alright nor did he put alcohol on any of the tools he was using or my nails to disinfect. You can see how rushed the job looks in the pictures it's been about 3 days and MY CUTICLES ARE SORE ASF. read more

I came in as a walk-in and was assigned to Tony for a gel manicure. While pushing back my cuticles he was talking loudly, laughing, and not even looking at my hand. When I felt a sting and tried to look, he grabbed my hand back before I could. At the next opportunity I pulled my hand away and saw he had cut me -- I was bleeding. Only after I pointed it out did he spray my hand with alcohol and apologize and ask if I was okay. His lack of concern and attempt to minimize it upset me, so I told him I was done, asked about a discount on the cleaning, paid, and left. If he had been paying attention and acknowledged it right away, I would have understood, since mistakes happen. I wasn't looking for amazing service, just a decent one. Will not be coming back. read more

Do not waste your money here! Took my daughter to go get a pedicure. Didn't realize they charge $30 more for gel! That's crazy. I know it's Hawai'i, but if ima pay that much I want my nails to last. We went on Tuesday- it is now Thursday and the gel nail polish has come off 5 of my toes! To pay $130 for just pedicures is unreal. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Royal Nails - Only the big toe has nail polish now. - Nail Salons Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I got my nails done just yesterday and they were very friendly and the guy who did my nails was very quick but I would definitely suggest other spots. My cuticles were tripped way too much and I have several cuts on multiple fingers, I also have gel going past my cuticle due to too much gel which I had to trim myself at home, and the sides definitely needed more filing for I'm not fan of how wide my nails looked read more

Asked for the regular pedicure but the guy said I had to do the spa deluxe which was $40, came out to be $42 and only took him less than 20 min Was painful when he clipped nails, kept rushing thru. Wouldn't recommend read more

Yes, I looked at the bad reviews and still gave this place a try. Hoping that I get a better experience. The person that greeted us was ok. I got a spa pedicure along with my daughter and my sister. I haven't done gel polish so i sticked to regular polish which I know it takes longer to dry. Right after the rushed massage and polish, I was also rushed to get out of the pedi seat and was asked to pay right away. There was no one waiting and I was still also waiting for my sister. And of course before I even hopped in my car, polish was already ruined. They were just too quick to shoo you out of the salon when no one is in line waiting. Never again going back there. I should've trusted the reviews. read more

This is THE WORST NAIL SALON EVER!!! I came here for a Acrylic fill. The price on their Website was, $30.00 for a fill. So I went there to get my nails done. However, before I got my nails done, I asked the Service woman how much for an Acrylic Refill...she told me, "$55.00." I told her that their website states, "$30.00"???. She insisted it was $55.00. I just walked out. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! read more

First of all I was glad they were able to take me and my daughter in at last minute on a Saturday morning. We just wanted a manicure very basic manicure. As we got in I asked if I could sit with my daughter to do nails together. It was sad that the nail tech weren't able to accommodate for me sitting next to my daughter. There may be a reason why but was not given a reason . Five minutes a lady sat next to her to do nails. Too bad I could not experience the first nail manicure with my daughter together. My nail tech kept asking to do gel nail instead and I said No. Then I said we are fine with GEL and lady said it's better last longer and I said I know we are okay with regular nail polish. I asked if she can do four layers and she said no. I asked if she could do two laters top coat she said just one. I was already thinking this place is a sham when the lady who did my nails insisted to do gel and and when I said HARD PASS, then she started telling that I haven't done for a while looks like I have never gone to a salon and that my nail polish will only last 3 days. I so love it when they talk about you in their language and then they all laugh! Never will go there again. The woman who did my nails is not professional and I felt so uncomfortable after she kept on pushing and then telling me I don't get my nails done then talking crap and the rest of the workers laughed. It will be my first and last time going there. Believe it or not my daughter and my nail polish lasted more than a week. We loved it! I just don't like the environment. I don't think they used cleaned instruments when doing nails on new clients. By the way I gave 1 Star just because of the service and how I felt after leaving the shop. But overall our nails came out okay and not a bad job. read more

Absolutely Awful Experience - Never Returning I had one of the most upsetting customer service experiences of my life at this pedicure salon -- all thanks to a staff member named Amy. From the moment I sat down, she was incredibly short, rushed, and visibly irritated. She didn't greet me, didn't smile, and made me feel like I was a burden for simply being there. When I asked her a question, she threw the service menu at me -- literally tossed it -- and spoke in a way I couldn't understand. When I politely asked her to repeat herself, she looked annoyed and huffed like I was wasting her time. I tried to handle it calmly and discreetly. I asked to speak to a supervisor about her behavior privately, to avoid embarrassing anyone, and she coldly claimed she was the supervisor. That alone was shocking -- this is how a supervisor treats paying customers? Feeling completely disrespected and humiliated, I stepped outside and called the company directly. After explaining everything, they said a real manager would come to speak with me. I waited outside in the hot sun for 45 minutes. Eventually, someone did come and said they'd handle it internally. But honestly, all I wanted was to understand why Amy treated me this way -- I didn't even get that. The whole experience left me feeling like I was judged -- whether for being a man, not looking wealthy, or simply choosing a basic pedicure. Whatever the reason, I've never been made to feel more unwelcome or unimportant in a customer-facing business. This place doesn't deserve your time or money, and no one deserves to be treated the way I was. Devastating and disappointing. Interesting to see other negative comments about Amy on here so that tells me it's evident that establishment hasn't dealt with Amy at all. If you're a male do not go to this location. At least totally avoid Amy. read more

I should have read the negative reviews first! The lady I had was rude, pushy and when I told her I just wanted the basic pedicure she rushed through it and was done in 20 minutes. No massage, barely a scrub and demanded I get out of the pedicure seat for someone else. My sister and daughters ladies were nice though. Just felt like they all just wanted to rush us through and get the money. Painting my daughter's toenails and my pedicure was $67 with tip. Overpriced for the service we got. read more

The picture of my finger nails is from last year and that's the color I wanted again but the technician I had this time said she couldn't find that shade. Ohh well. I am still satisfied. I only get my nails done once a year so I am not picky. I went at 10am on a Monday as a walk in and was helped in the first 10 minutes of walking in. I liked the leg massage with the leg mask. Very relaxing. read more

I just retuned home after five weeks on the mainland helping to move my mom in 110° weather. My feet were ruined. The photo probably seems like a pretty basic pedicure but I went in for callus removal only, no paint. Nina asked me why I didn't want paint and I replied, "because I don't have toenails on four toes". Nina said, "I'll make you some". And then I watched her use some powder to build me four new toenails that are so strong, she used a dremel to shape them. Then she painted them and then I cried. More than 25 years after a botched toenail removal, I have pretty feet again. I had no idea this was possible. As long as Nina is doing nails, I'm her customer. read more

Run don't walk as far away from here as you can.

Rude and unprofessional.. do not ever go here- it's a health hazard! Amy was horrible!! read more

Stopped by on Sunday afternoon for a pedicure. I walked in, signed in, no acknowledgement. Sat for 10 min and even though they were busy with other customers, still nothing from any worker when I walked in as a customer. I called another nail place in the area who could take me right away. I left Royal Nails. I would recommend going elsewhere if customer service is important to you. read more

Went in for a pedicure, chose the upgraded hot stone $40 package. Was told callus removal was an extra $7 dollars! I declined the removal and the lady's attitude completely changed. She rushed through the sugar scrub and paraffin wax, she rubbed the hot stones for a whole 10 seconds. The polish applied came out chunky and she just continued applying it! read more

Walked-in for a gel mani and it was a full house today! The nail tech who took care of me was pleasant, quick and friendly. She gave me some design options that would make the Mani last longer. When she got started, she was gentle while trimming my nails and she took her time when she massaged my hand and forearms I almost fell asleep! She offered to do my pedi but I didn't have enough time, however, I plan to return again soon! The facility was decent and spacious but it seems their clientele is expanding and it's probably time for a bigger facility! They seem to be popular in the area. Location is adjacent to the Buffalo Wild Wings and across from Safeway. They offer quite a list of services that I would like to try at some point. I wish I remembered my nail tech's name, but I won't forget her face when I go back. read more

Before coming to this nail salon, I read the negative reviews but I still came here to give the salon business. I was very disappointed. I came here to do a simple powder dip manicure. The nail technician was the owner which makes it even more upsetting that she did a very messy job. She would just continue performing the routine of brushing the clear protective polish on my nails brushing against my skin then dipping my fingers in the finely milled powder to my nails. I washed my hands over four days before posting this picture and it's still there, dried powder dip on my cuticles. I've been to many nail salons for manicure and this is by far very much a messy job. After paying and giving 20 % tip I took the mail file and started cleaning the mess around my nails across the register. The owner said I could take the file with me but what I wanted her to know is that she did an unsatisfactory job. I'm so embarrassed because I'm here for vacation to be with friends and family and my nails are just so sloppy looking. Am I coming here again? I do not think so. read more

Came for an eyebrow wax, left with a burn mark. During the wax it was very sore but didn't question it. She didn't even offer to show me what it looked like after and didn't notify me of the burn. It kept throbbing for the rest of the night until I seen the mark for myself in the mirror at home. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!! read more

I tried this place because of a friend's recommendation. I'm glad she enjoys this place but I did not like the quality. I paid $70 for a gel pedi (that includes the 20% tip), I think I'm just used to my salon in town being $100 with tip included for a gel mani pedi combo. Also, they spent maybeeee 15 minutes on cuticle care and there wasn't even cuticle oil after all the UV lights. I did appreciate that they constantly asked questions on if the color was correct. I wish I had asked them to wrap the tip on my nail, that's something I'm just used to from my previous place that I think made the end result look bad. read more

I called a day before to make an appointment just in case it gets busy. I scheduled an appointment for a gel pedicure on a Monday and it was a little busy. I still had to sign in and waited about 20min because I got here early. The lady that did my pedicure did a good job but when she was massaging my feet, it was a little too rough. I believe I paid almost $60 because I did add a $5 fee for a scrub and it felt amazing on my legs. I got basic white pedicure and I liked the service but I wouldn't come back here again just because i was already in that area I decided to get my nails done. read more

Believe the reviews! I came here wanting to give them a chance but nope never coming back. I just wanted a regular deluxe pedi with polish (tech asked real quick if I wanted gel and I just felt inclined to say yes). I thought, since I'm only doing a pedi, it shouldn't be too bad. For a regular pedicure with gel I ended up paying $70 when their price says $55. On top of this I added a 15% tip because I didn't realize till after the fact that I was overcharged! 2 stars because the service was not bad (pedi was ok), but the environment is just not very comfortable. Techs speaking very loudly in their language, no music on so you're just sitting there listening to them. I just don't appreciate dishonest people and unfortunately I came across one today. read more

May 2024, While visiting Hawaii, I took my mom to get a pedi. Royal Nails is close to her home and they always do a great job. The staff are friendly and thorough. I had an overgrown ingrown that they carefully took off and my feet felt instantly better. Parking is limited so be prepared to look around for parking. read more

They still don't have functioning Wi-Fi so if you're printing something off your phone, you have to stand by the door and catch the public Wi-Fi. Something that would be a 5 to 7 minute task took almost 45 minutes. I've had trouble with this before at this store, so I should've known better, but I tried to give them a second chance. There will not be a third. They need to have Wi-Fi for this to be an efficient operation. But if you want to mail a package or make some copies, I suppose you could go there. read more

I usually don't come here except it's near my house and they do waxing. They don't spend much time on the massage like other places. Then came the nail art. I was watching her do it but didn't really see how it turned out until it was sealed in. Looks like a pre-schooler drew the heart unfortunately. I have no complaints on the waxing, first time waxing my eyebrows. read more

I would give it a zero if it was an option! Horrible place! Old man with glasses, don't let him do your nails. He messed up my nails and I hate everything about it. I told him I don't like it and he had the audacity to get mad. I had him remove the color and he drilled my nails it was painful so I said I prefer someone to do it. The girls were arguing and had the nerve to be yelling and get so mad! I would not recommend this place. The only one that's nice is the owner, and I expected her too. I told her, her staff are rude and needs to watch their mouth. Anyway, I would not waste my time in this place. Low rating to begin with. Never again!

Every 2-3 weeks, I get a fill and a pedicure. Ken is the best! He always fits me in and can get both done in less than an hour. He keeps my nails short, as requested. I have had another artist who just would not cut my nails down as they grew. Ken aims to please. The shop employees work well together. I came in late right before traveling: they tag teamed my pedicure and eyebrows until Ken could get to my nails. The only downside is that they don't do appointments but there are always enough people available to compete your service. read more

A nail tech named Amy did my plastic white tip acrylic set. No manicure, or anything additional was requested. Their listed price is 40 dollars for an acrylic full set. She told me if I wanted "skinny square" I'll have to go to the doctor to get my nail bed cut. I told her I used to get my nails filed this way all the time but if she didn't understand, then it was okay. Then she laughed, and dropped her nail file on the towel my hands were sitting on and told me I can file my own nails. I told her I'm not going to do my own nails at a nail salon, and that it was fine. She almost applied a gel clear coat without my consent. I said I'm not consenting to, or paying for gel. She said my set was $70. I told her that's incorrect and that I want a regular clear coat. She said it's still going to be 60 because the white plastic tips cost more than the clear plastic tips, and there's an additional charge for "shaping" or in other words using a nail file on my nails- which, not only is part of any full set, but I literally paid and walked out without a clear coat at all because I still need to shape / file them on my own........ Leaving feeling scammed, abused, and publicly embarrassed by this angry little woman. I will never return and just thought I should do the public a favor by issuing a warning. read more

Please be careful with how they charge you here, they will add on services and won't let you know *** I did a last minute decision to get my nails done and royal nails was the closest one and they were able to get me in quick. I like the lady that did my nails and feet, but I went there asking for a basic pedi and mani, I didn't ask for gel. At the end she charged me $94 for something I didn't ask for. The lady put the gel polish on, I didn't tell her to do it, I just wanted basic polish one coat would've been fine, I went back on their website to see how much the mani is and it was $20 and pedi was $30. I didn't wanna argue with the lady since she was nice but I probably won't be coming here again, they overcharge you for something that you didn't even ask for. read more
