Tami-A Nails Salon — Local services in Honolulu

I’ve lived on island for over 6 years and my usual nail tech was too busy for my girlfriend and I to get a fill; I called and they got me an appointment within the next hour. The woman on the phone was incredibly nice even when we were running a few minutes late looking for parking (I recommend parking at the International Marketplace as it’s only $4 per 30 minutes and finding free side parking is almost always impossible). I believe John did my fill; he’s the incredibly friendly and professional man with really nice tattoos. He was absolutely amazing and did the best job I’ve ever had so far on this island! He’s been working here for 21 years and knows everything there is to know about nails. All I did was show him a photo of what I wanted for my accent nail and that I wanted thin french on the rest and he absolutely nailed it 🤩 He even recommended a better style for the flowers on the accent nail and it looks SO much better! Definitely follow his advice; with over 20 years of experience he knows exactly what he’s doing and will make your nails look the most beautiful they’ve ever been. As someone who’s lived on this island for years and seen how many salons will charge over $120 for a normal French tip fill, you will NEVER get the quality that this place gives for the price range you deserve. My nails were only $60 for a fill, french, and accent nail?!? That’s an INCREDIBLE price for Oahu. With 600+ 5 star reviews, do you even need to check what people are saying??? It may not look like a brand new salon but you will NEVER get this quality and price anywhere else. If you’re still reading, call and make the appointment already 😜

**First photo is the nails John (the man with the spiderweb elbow tattoo; I forgot to ask his name), the second photo is my reference photo where he said “these flowers look more like eggs, let’s do it this way” and didn’t let me make an unfortunate mistake and put little eggs...

Let me just start by saying Tami and Holly are absolutely incredible. And I’m not throwing that word around lightly. This isn’t just about the craftsmanship of what they do (which, by the way, is beyond flawless). It’s about the entire experience they create from the moment you walk in. From the instant my wife and I stepped through the door, they were welcoming, kind, and genuinely sweet. Their energy is nurturing in a way you don’t find everywhere anymore they take care of you like family. And I don’t mean just us they somehow manage to make everyone in the place feel like the most important person in the room. Their work? Impeccable. Clean lines, perfect details, no shortcuts. If you’re in a hurry, they move fast without sacrificing quality. If you’ve got time to relax, they’ll take you on the most calming, pampering journey possible. Either way, you’re getting nothing short of quality care and pristine admiration for their craft every single time. Honestly, why are you even still reading this? I mean it. Every second you spend on my review is a second you could already be sitting in their chairs getting the best service of your life. You’re wasting time. Go. Now. In fact, when you do go, make sure you tell them Joshua with the 12 babies sent you. And be specific—say, “The African man with 12 babies”. They’ll know exactly who you’re talking about, and you’ll probably get an extra smile out of them. I don’t trust anyone else with my nails. Not here, not back home, not anywhere. Every single time I’m in town, I’m coming straight to them no questions asked.

Final rating: 1,000,000 out of 10. Tami and Holly, you’ve got...

BEST nail salon I have been to in MY LIFE!!! I cannot say enough good things about Tami-A Nails. I spent years walking by this place but never went inside-finally last night I popped in and it was such a stellar experience from start to finish. The nail techs are gentle and were very respectful of me not wanting my cuticles touched.

The pedicures are really good and your feet will feel brand new after. Jenny did my pedicure and I would highly recommend her. She got all the dead skin off and my feet are sooooo soft now. Jenny is also super caring and friendly. Regular pedicures are only $27 but I recommend the full spa one for $39- trust me it’s worth it for scrub. You can get that with gel also I believe for $50.

I got a full set of gel acrylic nails (hands) for only $63 with hand painting !!!! This was done by Trish who is a true nail artist. She hand lined the gold on my nails (you can see in the pictures-that’s not airbrushing). Trish is super gentle and kind.

I really recommend this nail salon -my nails look like I went to a fancy salon and paid double the price to get them done as well as they came out. The workers here are also very friendly and conversational -positive vibes all around. 5 stars !!!!!! 100%...
