They do a fantastic job here! My friend and I called and did a walk in on a Thursday afternoon and there were a few others already there but we didn't wait long at all as they called in another lady to come help us. I felt like I got the princess treatment, someone was doing my acrylic set while someone else did my pedicure. I normally don't like getting my nails done as I've had bad experiences with getting burned or knicked but my tech was very gentle and thorough! They did such a great job! It's a small spot but they're incredibly nice and are very welcoming. Customer service and the finishing product was amazing. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I always come here for my gel mani and a single (not gel) pedi but they always have charged me $72, where it should've been $57 I just came to realized that the price that they have been charging me was if I get a gel pedi and gel mani then it would've been $72 anyway I always come here for my mani(gel) and single pedi I always have paid $72 but since it got too expensive I started going somewhere else...now that I know the price I should be letting them know next time... I always come here because it's close to my home and the staff are also nice... the place is clean too... read more

It was suppose to be a nice birthday pedicure. We were the first customers . Once two other customers came in the nail tech rushed my daughter's pedicure. The nail tech doing my pedicure moved to the new customers and had someone else finish my nails . I choose the salon from a yelp score . Not sure how they have a 4.6 rating . Quality of both our pedicures was average . Very disappointing. read more

Such a great experience @ v nails. Small shop but took me in asap for a pedi & full set. Will definitely come here again read more

My mom and I wanted to find a salon to meet in the middle (mission viejo and san diego) and found this gem! This shop has amazing service and the staff are beyond talented as well as friendly! Hannah did my nails and she exceeded my expectations! Listened to what my requests are and poof! delivered beautiful set of nails. Yen did my mom's nails and it turned out fantastic. Kim worked on my mom's toes while Yen did mine. They take payments through venmo or zelle, and tips are cash! Definitely will come here next time (and forever)! read more

I stopped in today at V Nails and was greeted by smiling faces who gave me a lovely gel pedicure and perfect French tip gel manicure. I didn't have a appt but I seated right away. Their prices are very fair and they didn't try to upsell me, in-fact she made sure I knew the callus remover was a bit extra. I love this little shop right on ECR in San Clemente. read more

i asked for just polish and they gave me gel which led me to pay 48 dollar, instead of the original price she told me 27. after that she acting mad about me not giving a tip. But my pedicure came out fine. read more

Great mani ped! Quick service was great! Only 5 chair, small in a strip center. Unfortunately, the regular polish start chipping after 2 days, but looked awesome for my event. read more

Professional Kind and Caring Excellent at what they do Relaxing vibe music I travel from NC and always look forward to my nails being pampered! read more

Amazing quality, everytime!! Hot stone, long massages, great quality polish and very beautiful shaping. 10/10 would recommend!!

Kim always does a wonderful job and my nails look great. Excellent work and very reasonable prices. I am a happy regular here.

Loan was amazing! She was so nice and did a great job for me! I will definitely come back and see her soon, Thank you !

Found this place on a whim and boy am I glad I did! Great price point and great work. I do wish that they had a more thorough list of services (what is included in pedicure) versus them being written on a chalkboard but for the price (especially in SC) and work, you can't beat it. Shop is small but I lucked out and walked in at the perfect time.. no wait! Will be back soon read more

Although in the end I am ok with how my nails turned out, the process was very rough. I wanted two different colors on my nails, but the lady doing my nails kept messing up the colors. First she did white, which I did not want, then she did a peach color that was totally off from the light pink I had wanted. When I tried correcting her, she told me I was wrong and that was the right color even though it obviously was not. I also asked for my nails to be the same length but she filed them down to the tip of my nail when they were well above before. They are also all different lengths now. During the painting process I fet very rushed and they wouldnt even let my nails fully dry. They also kept missing steps like the stars I wanted on my nails to try to get me out quicker. I now have smeared paint on the side of my nails. At the end, I got charged almost 20 bucks more then I expected to pay, because their menu says 33 dollars for gel manicure and 10 dollars for designs so I was expecting to pay around 43 dollars. I got charged 64 dollars, which was more then my friend who came with me who got french acrylics. I feel bad for leaving this review but overall a pretty negative expirience I don't think I will be going here again read more

This place is fantastic. All the nail salons near Talega are quick and sloppy. This place really took their time and did an amazing job. And the price was cheaper than what I thought. First time for gel nails and they came out PERFECTLY. read more

I have been getting pedicures every few months for years and it seems like I always leave with some kind of pain or soreness from the nail tech. NOT this time! Kim did an awesome job, was gentle, and took good care of my pretty neglected toes. They look great and I'll definitely be requesting her again for my next pedicure. read more

I got a gel manicure and it was great. They were gentle, had a variety of colors, and were very quick. We just happened to be in the area and it was exactly what we needed and affordable ($33)! read more

This nail salon is it! Their availability is superb, the place is spotless, and they work with lightning speed. Plus, their polish lasts longer than most. And their prices are amazing. Couldn't ask for more. read more

I think this is a "get what you paid for" salon for sure. I got a gel manicure and the gentleman did not go anywhere near my cuticle so it looked overgrown already. I was in a rush and didn't feel that I had to bring it to his attention because I figured it would be cheaper work. I also got my eyebrows waxed, that was alright too. I didn't want to be too picky especially because even when I thread them, I have to pluck them after anyways. I do wish the place was much cleaner, even though it is a small space there isn't any reason why it looks very cluttered, dirty and dusty. The gentleman who did both my services was very sweet. It has amazing potential! I will for sure be back if need be. I love how close it is to my home. read more

Best nail spa I've ever been to, They never fail to impress me!!! Positive energy, good atmosphere and AMAZING massage chairs! They're great at lashes hand massages and great people to be around! They always are able to conquer my request exactly how I want it, I personally like gel x but their normal acrylic set always come out perfectly. This is my ride or die nail salon, 100% recommend!!! read more

This is a hidden gem on El Camino Real. Everyone is friendly and the service is excellent! I had Yen do my nails and they turned out great! She is a perfectionist and very sweet! I highly recommend this salon and everyone there does a great job! read more

Awesome awesome awesome !!!! This is your one stop shop salon and Yen is so damn good at what she does. Whether it's nails, lashes, eyebrows she has your back and makes you feel so comfortable along the way! After I had a few horror story lash experiences ... she hit it out of the park! And, I now have the confidence I wanted with my lashes! Thanks girl! read more

The guy nail tech that I went to was very nice but he filed my nails so thin that they hurt. I got acrylics and gel on my nails and all of my finger nails are hurting right now. If I press on my nails at all they hurt and they feel like they have a heart beat. I asked for a specific design and my nail tech said that he couldn't do it, so I asked for a different design (which was french tip with different colors on the nails) and he said that that would require powder and he made it sound like they didn't have what I wanted. I just told him that since he can't do any of the designs I was hoping to get, then I will just get french tip. The french tip he gave me was ok but when he was filing my nails before hand I had to pull away 2 separate times because the file thinned my nails so much. I am also cut underneath my nail from the file. A couple of my nails are lopsided, but I know that not everything can be perfect when doing nails. When I was driving home, it hurts to hold the steering wheel. I feel bad for leaving this review because my nail tech was so nice but overall the process was not worth it. I now have to wait for my nails to fully grow back because they are so thin under the acrylics. read more

I'm honestly so disappointed. I went on yelp to find a good nail salon, and this one has the best ratings. . They were very aggressive when they wanted things from you and selling you and the way they moved you and things around you. I felt like an inconvenience being there and I honestly felt terrible spending any money there at all. I couldn't wait to get out of there. It's also in the smallest space you'll ever find in San Clemente super crowded no room no respect. My nails don't look bad that's why I'm giving two stars instead of one. read more

Great prices. Have gone here a bunch. Just not sure what's up with my recent manicure. It is all bubbly and not great :/ they didn't rush. Will go back today and see if they can fix it. Not sure what's causing the bubbling. read more

I am so appreciative for how amazing my nails turned out. It took about an hour and they took me right away. She did exactly as I asked and even corrected the little bumps I saw that she did not see. They charged $10 extra due to Covid, but it was totally worth it! read more

Today my mom and I visited V nails for the first and last time. I requested a gel polish change on both my hands and feet. I was quoted 20 for my hands and 25 for my feet. My mom had her hands and feet done with just a polish change. I told the lady we did not want manicures just the polish change and upon payment the younger girl went to change my mom and I for 2 manicures! I told her that is not what I wanted and she stated "I saw with my own eyes the lady give your a massage!" I explained that's not what I requested and she continued to argue with me. My advice is do not come here and make sure to check you are not charged for bogus services. Update: owner decided to message me, so here is my response. Grimy bussiness. My response: Ok that would be great! I would love to see the camera footage along with the audio. read more

Very happy with the service and prices! Will definitely start coming here feom now on. Thank you Kim and the girls.

Yen did an outstanding job on my nails, and she was incredibly fast. It was my first visit here, recommended by my mother-in-law, and I'm definitely planning to come back. read more
