The service overall was ok, nice people, and my fill and pedicure were ok, it could have been better for the price I paid. I was very frustrated upon paying, I accidentally sent the Zelle payment to the wrong person due to the number not being legible on their sign, then I was basically told to send again and fix it with my bank, which I understand but please make a more legible Zelle sign with legible numbers. read more

I was disappointed with my recent experience at your salon. As a first time customer, I was looking forward to a Gel X French tip manicure. Unfortunately, my technician seemed inexperienced. Leading to uneven / crooked nails. The experience with Wendy was subpar and she needs more training. See photos for reference. Because I do not live in the area, it's inconvenient to go get them redone and I hope management takes steps to improve their services. Plus , it's cash only. What's even more cringy was that the owner of the business was also hitting on my bf that sat next to me while he was getting his pedicure ! read more

Service was 5 stars plus. Three of us came in for pedis without appointments and they took us in, no problem. Most of the nail techs were friendly and efficient. Out of three of us, two look fantastic. Sadly, mine looks crappy...much like it would if I'd done it myself. The gentleman left polish on my skin in multiple places, and shaggy clipped/filed cuticle on the side of one toe. Pretty disappointed in my messy pedicure, but my daughters' pedis look very nice, and they're super pleased. I also got a polish change on my hands. It looks great from the top. The sides are messy because the second coat doesn't go to the edge or fully cover the first coat. I did bump and mess up my thumb...she fixed it perfectly and you can't even tell. Overall, it's a very nice nail salon and I would definitely return. read more

Marilee Mattson 3 reviews·3 photos $40-60 One of the best pedicures I've had in a very long time! We were visiting Seal Beach for the weekend and my bestie and I came in for pedicures on a Sunday afternoon after shopping and lunch... we were walk-ins with no reservation. Kim and her husband were so gracious and had us in the pedicure chairs after a short 10 minute wait. After the pedi, I opted for a 10 minute neck and shoulder massage by Kim... needless to say it was pure Bliss!! read more

My pedicure was rushed and completed in less than 20 minutes. The owner was very unfriendly. I didn't have enough cash for a tip due to the price increase, so I used the ATM it ended costing an additional $5 in fees. I won't be going back. read more

The owner, Kim, is extremely rude and yells at her employees in her nail salon. Interferes with customers attempting to relax. Sadly she is not appreciative of private, professional feedback and was very rude when I spoke to her. The nail technicians are very good but I refuse to continue to support this owner's business. read more

I've been going to select nails for 6-7 years and I've never once been disappointed. Kim (The owner) takes care of her staff and customers. I love the energy and cleanliness.

Ryan is the best! Regular color stays on for a very long time. Gives great pedicures.

So amazing!!! My best friend and I met up in Seal Beach for the weekend and popped in on Sunday afternoon for pedicures. We loved it! Everyone is so sweet. My pedicure was done by Jacqueline. She did a fabulous job! My toes look beautiful! I wish they had a location in Los Angeles. Kim who owns the salon with her husband was super sweet and made sure all customers had what they needed and were happy. Prices are extremely fair. I would 100% recommend and will definitely be back again. read more

Select Nail House - Pedicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Seal Beach, California

I truly wanted to be able to write a great review. After yesterday I'm pretty upset and I spent close to $300 so that alone is horrifying considering the results. Firstly my mother and I called early at 9:30am asking to book two pedis ,1 dip powder mani & mani gelx with tips plus design at 3:30, the man said 3 was better so they could do everything and have plenty time so I agreed; I even got there early! I walked in and it was as if I had never bothered to make an appt. I sat there while they worked on my feet for an hour and a half before my nails were ever started. I came with my mother so she was done with both services and then had to wait as they had only just began having gotten the tips attatched to my nails. The man did come over and apologize of course when she had gone to use the restroom to avoid hearing her since she was the one stuck waiting. My mother's nails I heard her repeatedly yelp out in pain and even say something to be careful she's fragile. I am horrified at the bloody razor sliced up mess of her nail beds. I literally carry a natural medical grade antimicrobial cuticle balm in my purse and thank god I do she applied It once we were on our way home and it was burning. She would be full on infectious if I hadn't acted fast post our trip. She told the girl to file and next thing she knows the girl took and clipped her pinky asking this okay? Umm no but now what I can't just have one short. But that sadly was not the worst of the horrors. Not one of her once perfectly natural medium length almond shaped nails now is the same shape at all I don't even know what the fuck the shape some of those are! The dip is not even and the top gel coat is bubbled! i seriously have never seen my mother near tears over her nails this truly is a first and it really upsets me we never get to have time together and this was not the happy ending I deserved with her on our outing together! Her toes are really nice. The guy did an amazing job and even got an ingrown nail no one has been able to that was hurting her for months. So I guess small win ;I wish I had been so lucky. My pedicure how was it that it finished before her and mine was started after?riddle me that one. We both paid for the detox pedi aka the highest service one!! My feet needed serious attention why I opted for the works and should have taken longer then hers easily if starting at the same time. I should not be able to still grip and full on pull on my calluses. I shouldn't visibly be able to fuckin see them and my heels shouldn't be skin semi bubbled in some spaces. Heck the end of my toes even have calluses still! But god that's not even the kicker I was looking trying to figure out why the polish is darker and light on some areas on the same nail. The woman painted on my cuticles she never bothered to push back! The polish is coming off because she painted mostly skin covering my damn nails!!! Nails are cut at diagonals some. Cuticles underneath. Layers on sides everywhere. And that's visible not even counting what she painted over of skin.This is not acceptable at all especially when I paid top service for my feet to be covered in thick visible calluses and cuticles in various thickness layers still overtop my nail surface that she covered in paint. Maybe some people wouldn't notice but I got flexiblity i can see the bottoms of my feet up close and nails. So she picked the worst person to think I would not notice the shit job. Let alone feel the calluses like hello they are so thick they are still islands of different skin tones on my feet!!! My nails the woman Vicky was really sweet and detail oriented. My only complaint is when I showed them My design and they toured it around the entire salon mind you a half hour before I ever met Vicky so not her fault, said they can do no problem but then while in the process after she has began painting I find out that they don't have colored rhinestones which was the main feature of that design! Never have I ever been to a place that doesn't have multiple colors but to only have silver that's a first. It was too late to change designs and so I just went with the silver. Not at all in patterns like the picture but not much I could do. It is pretty but had I known at the beginning they did not have color rhinestones I would have picked a totally different design had I been told honestly at the beginning they did not have the materials to do it like the picture and then could have decided before paint was even applied to do an altered version of it or chose something else. Also paint on the ends and some sides of my nails is visibly missing and truly I felt she was feeling rushed since my mom was just there chilling and didn't do two layers the yellow really needed to not show brush strokes some paint is missing on sides of nails and the edges are not smoothed down and keep catching onto clothing being sharp. The artwork is beautiful I have more to say but I hit the Yelp word limit. . read more

My favorite nail salon by a landslide (and I've been to so many nail salons in my life). I've been close to a dozen times before writing this review so believe me when I tell you- the service and quality is consistent on EVERY single visit! Inside is clean and airy. My nails have never been stronger and healthier. Kim the owner is hilarious and I always look forward to seeing her. All the staff are friendly and good at what they do. You can tell there is pride in their work. I can't say enough great things about this place, honestly. read more

A Very disappointing experience!! I waited 35 minutes for a technician, as my feet were soaking in water for a pedicure. They were busy and short of personal. A woman came in, sat next to me and didn't wait at all!!! I even had an appointment. I was so upset! Left and will not be returning!!!! Management needs to pay attention to ALL their clients. read more

Wow let me tell you I cannot recommend this nail salon enough! A family friend referred me and I am so happy with the service. It all starts with Kim she is so funny and creates an amazing atmosphere. I got my new gel x set done by Wendy and they are by far the best set I have gotten done. Every single nail is straight and the polish had no bubbles! I will drive down from LA now to get my nails done here. Also they have a large selection of gel polish colors and ONLY use apres gel x system. read more

Great service for the price. I've always had an excellent experience here. It's my favorite nail salon.

OKay so for the record: I am not a big fan of manicures and pedicures. That's not going to change at this point in my life. However this place is filled with kind, decent people who - whether they're painting toes to be Green and Gold for the start of a Green Bay Packers season or - as just recently happened - I needed someone to come to the house and take care of things (was recovering from back surgery)... they kill it. Can I borrow a star from some other review and give them six? read more

1st time here - Paid $50 for a gel pedi & when I left all my toes were not covered/painted properly. The gal said my toes were too small. (IVE BEEN GETTIN PEDIs SINCE 6...what kind of excuse is that? Lol) So now its been less than a week and all my GEL polish isnt adhereing properly... I think it was her first time doing Chrome. She didn't put the layer on soon enough/or well enough because it all came off imiidiately. And ever since has been fading - so I dont think she set it properly either. Such a Bummer. I pay for a service & service stinks these days. Places only worry about thier higher costs...but what about the customers? We all are experiencing inflation. So if you cant provide proper service...its time to shut down. Im all for supoorting local, small business - as I own one myself. But the high prices for less than avg service has got to stop. read more

Select Nail House - Nail Salons Near Me - Seal Beach, California

My first appointment, a little over a year ago, was for a basic pedicure. I was impressed from the moment I spoke to the owner on the phone. I could tell she was busy by all the background noise; Yet, she remained responsive, detailed and professional. I arrived on time and every chair was full. This is such a pleasant sight to see when paying for these type of self-care/hygienic services. Most people seemed to be patrons and well taken care of. I have returned repeatedly, sometimes accompanied by my husband and almost two year old son. It's our little weekend date every now and then when we walk Seal Beach. Everyone is so sweet and accommodating. The owner has even helped keep my son entertained while my technician finished up our massages so we could fully relax! The entire facility is very clean! I love the big windows and the ergonomics of the layout. It is bright and open and still very soothing. Though we have at least 10 nail salons within a mile radius of our house, we make the 15 min drive to enjoy this little gem! Thank you for all the wonderful services and experiences! read more

Finally found the best place for nails in Long Beach. Kim and her team are talented and kind. Very happy with the service and quality!!

I used to consider this place my go-to nail spot but ever since they went cash only the quality has diminished. It is way too overpriced and not worth it anymore. Every time I've gone I get a cut or a scrape from the aggressive nature and speediness of the technicians. I have overlooked it because I've been going there for years but with the outrageous prices and it happening multiple times it's really not worth it anymore. Also, I requested a manicure just without polish because I wanted my nails to be crisp and clean but $20 just to have her clean the cuticles was definitely not worth it. There was no buffing, no smoothing of the nail bed, and she left the nails jagged and sharp. And on my pedicure the technician was not listening to me when I asked her to only focus on the callus and not scrape off healthy skin. Which she ended up scraping off healthy skin that left me with cuts once again and she didn't even fully get the callus. Again, this used to be my go-to spot but I feel the technicians are not as good as they used to be because they know they will get paid well regardless. Bummed but will take my business elsewhere read more

It has been ages since I've been to the salon and I was glad to see the technicians were still wearing masks. As I walked in I also immediately noticed something different --the lack of chemical smells that you find hit you at other salons. The owner Kim said she installed an air purification system. Love the open space and everything was clean. I made an appointment and my mani and pedi were done by two technicians and I was in and out within the hour. Four days later, my nails still look fresh!

They underwent a major renovation (for the better!) during COVID shutdowns. Select Nail House is now a modern salon with a marble "nail bar", light and airy feel, and very friendly technicians. Prices are in line with other higher end nail bars. 4 stars instead of 5 because my dip manicure started to peel after a week. read more

I am SO grateful to this nail salon. I called Sunday evening THIRTY minutes before closing time and asked if they would be willing to take me in. Luckily for me the owner said yes- I was so relieved and rushed there. On to the salon itself- it is extremely clean, (super important) organized, modern, and relaxing. This salon provided a service and experience like no other! They were playing soothing music, provided me with water (where else would you get that) and my technician Lily was wonderful! She was kind, attentive, and detailed in her work even despite the fact that they were about to close. If you ask me that is extremely unheard of. I would definitely come back to this salon if I'm ever in the area. There is parking in front but it is hit or miss as there are other stores next to the salon. However, if you drive a little further up the street there is a lot with metered parking. read more

Best nail salon in Orange County. My wife and I drive up there from Costa Mesa all the time. I get a pedicure while my wife gets that plus a manicure. But the best part is the neck massages you can get by request. The lady named Van is the best massager. Lilly also does a good massage. The owner Kim is hilarious and awesome! read more

I got dip nails done here and they started cracking right away and I paid $50 and then when I called and told the boss he pretty much hung up on me and said he had to see my nails so I personally wouldn't recommend this place but they gave me some green tea, and that was sweet of them. read more

UPDATE: I was offered a full refund, so I'm happy! I've been here twice before and I had been really happy with them in the past. This has nothing to do with the owners, who always super sweet and make sure to greet everyone and check in. I'm more upset with my nail technician. I asked to get a pattern done, and showed him what I wanted; he seemed a bit nervous about the design, so I told him I had simpler idea in mind and we could do that one instead. But he insisted that he could do the pattern, so we went ahead with it. Unfortunately, it doesn't look great at all, it's very clumsy and messy, and doesn't look professionally done at all, and I made another appointment with a different salon to get this taken off. I just wish the nail technician would have been more honest with me, because I would have rather gotten something simpler that looked great then something that looks like I could have done it myself. I don't make a lot of money, so getting a manicure is not something I do regularly, so I just feel like I didn't really get my money's worth. But if you want something simple like a French manicure or a solid color, then this place is great! read more

Their service and quality made me glad I went back to getting my nails done. My mistake was not asking what the up charge was for a strengthening treatment. I would have gotten it anyway but I didn't have sufficient cash on hand (who would think a hundred dollar bill wasn't enough) and had an awkward moment at the atm when it turns out you need a PIN number to get cash from credit card. Who knew. But lesson learned. The other great part is the Main Street people watching. The window chair on a Sunday afternoon is sublime. read more
