Jody makes great designs. This is reasonably priced and good work. I recommend an appointment.

Jus went in here for a fill after going elsewhere and my nails lifting within a week. This place was close by and it looked clean. They were busy however they got me in for next day at 11 am. They were prompt and respected their scheduled appointments. I didn't catch the nail techs name but she was patient and thorough. My nails were only $35 and I left a $5 tip. There was no charge to use a credit card. Over all very satisfied with the service. Will report back on retention in a few.

Dodger Nails!

Tammy and Tina are the best! I've been coming here since 2022. They are friendly, personable, and excellent at doing my nails. I never have a complaint!

Tammy always does a great job with my nails!! I love going here! Her retention lasts so long, my nails would last me a month and a half!

Tammy and the team are always so accommodating and wonderful!! The place is clean and their service is great.

I've been coming to Tropical Nails in La Habra for over 15 years, and they never disappoint! The service is always friendly, professional, and consistent, no matter who you see. I recently got a set done with a mix of frenzy tips, flowers, and strawberries--and I'm obsessed! Whether you're looking for something classic or fun and trendy, this place always delivers. Highly recommend!

Beautiful designs as always. And the ladies here are always so welcoming and care about their customers.

Thank you Lynn for doing my nails and making them shimmer! The first time I've ever had my nails done and they are perfect!

I've been coming to Tropical Nails for months and I'm always happy with my gel manicure. Tammy is amazing--she truly cares about her work, never rushes, and will redo designs until they're perfect. The salon is clean, the staff is friendly, and the quality is outstanding. My gel lasts 3-4 weeks with no lifting. Highly recommend for beautiful, long-lasting nails!

Infected nail!

I'm so disappointed that I paid a visit to this salon. It's everything that makes a bad or mediocre salon, absolutely terrible. This place is the worst for these reasons: 1) During my visit my nail tech probably answered six phone calls. She didn't have an ear piece so she stopped what she was doing to write down new appointments in a huge planner book. I don't think she truly picked up where she left off on my feet and all I could see were that my toe nails were different shapes and lengths. 2) I didn't appreciate the constant laughter and taunting. I felt instinctively that they were laughing at their customers (and probably at me) and not necessarily at a joke. What could be so funny for 45 minutes straight? Unprofessional to say the least. If they were not in fact laughing at me, at any rate, it made for an uncomfortable experience. 3) Because the nail tech was taking phone calls, the services took forever! Not a good use of my time. 4) Unsanitary! At every salon I've visited since the pandemic (or maybe earlier than that), the tech takes out sterilized equipment from a blue sealed bag. This establishment DOES NOT. The equipment used is just lying around from a previous customer. I was mortified. Aren't they in health violation? 4) Super rough technique! The tech sanded down my foot and practically burned me with the abrasion. She also clipped my nail bed so bad it got infected. Now I have to pay a visit to Urgent Care to get this taken care of! 5) Value - not even worth it. Not close. Over priced and unsanitary tools with rude service to boot. I paid $85 for a gel mani pedi without any add-ons. What a rip off. 6) Vibe - dated and dingy. I am kicking myself for coming here. Do yourself a favor and run as far as you can from this place!

I've been here 3 times now and have been helped almost instantly when arriving (usually right after work 5/530pm) Tammy does a great job! I went almost 4 weeks without needing a fill, her application is amazing! ( I'll have to take photos next time) My most recent set came out perfect! (Should've taken a photo right after but they are still giving

My nails were not strong like other nail places, so they broke way to easy. It was very hot inside.

Ask the Community - Tropical Nails Spa

How much is a pedicure? What different pedicures do they have?

Do they have gel x?

Yes, they do!

Do they do great designs? I have been to most reputable places in the La Habra, Brea, Fullerton area but seen to have a tough time getting decent nail art.

Ask for Jody. You'll need a 2 hour appointment depending on how intricate the design is. And you can get around the appointment, she's usually booked.

Is this salon well-ventilated? Asking because I'm pregnant but I need a pedicure!

I went here recently and they kept their front door open so there was a breeze. It didn't feel warm in there however I am not sure if they use AC.

How much is a manicure and pedicure?

I've been going to LT Nails for about 3 years now, and Nelson is by far the best nail technician…read moreI've ever had! I always get powder and gel on my nails, and he consistently does an amazing job. He's quick, precise, and always leaves my nails looking flawless. Not only is his work beautiful, but he's also professional and reliable every single time. I've recommended LT Nails and Nelson to so many of my friends and coworkers, and I'll continue recommending them to everyone I know. If you're looking for quality nails and great service, definitely book with Nelson!

They accept credit card but do request tips are done via cash/zelle. I had called ahead and was told we could be seen immediately which was nice, but I ended up having to wait in my chair for over 15 minutes before I was actually seen, while my wife was seen immediately. Because of this I opted for a faster service so that we could be done at the same time. I really wish they were more transparent about the wait times so people could plan accordingly. The service itself was definitely on the pricier side considering what was received, and honestly the quality of work was pretty mediocre. The callus removal was half done (I could only see this after I got up), and everything just felt rushed with little attention to detail (cuticles not cleaned, nails not clipped short enough, etc.). The foot massage at the end was lovely, definitely the highlight of the whole experience. While it wasn't the worst service I've had, I wouldn't go out of my way to come back because of how much it costs vs the level of service I received.

The first time, I…read morewasn't sure exactly what I wanted--I just told Tiffany I liked pink and glitter, and she worked her magic. Tina did my pedicure and was incredibly kind and gentle. Nearly three weeks later, my nails still looked amazing with no lifting at all, which is impressive. On my second visit, Tiffany did my fill, and Lily took care of my pedicure. Lily also waxed my eyebrows and upper lip, which turned out great. The salon itself is beautiful and has such a calm, relaxing atmosphere. Tiffany is not only talented but also takes the time to ask what you like to help bring your vision to life. I really appreciate that she can do a variety of designs and add rhinestones too. Highly recommend! La Habra is truly lucky to have Tiffany and her amazing team. Ladies, do yourselves a favor--go see for yourself what all the buzz is about. You won't be disappointed!

My oldest's nails looked better, but I didn't notice anything at first. Then my sister stepped in and immediately started complaining, asking where I took them. I paused to look, realizing they'd had their nails done before and that girls usually get excited about it. The gel on their toes chipped off, revealing their nails and areas where the technician missed spots, except for the designs, which they did poorly. It looked like they painted each other's nails instead of a professional doing a proper job. For that price, I expected better work, and it's a good idea to check the results before leaving.
