Happy Nails & Spa — Local services in Irvine

Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else!! If I could give no stars I would. I came here to change the gel color on my toes and gel x nails that’s all. I repeat just to change the color on my hands that had a fresh set from a lovely nail shop in Tustin (I’ll post their information below). The reason why I didn’t go back to the place I originally had my nails done was because they were closed and I was in a hurry and couldn’t wait for them to be open, but that was a huge mistake.

Anyway, I chose a neon yellow color because I am getting ready to leave for a trip to Hawaii. Not only did my nails look horrible after they re-polish them, but I was charged $67 just to change the color! I was blown away when the gentleman told me $67. I had called prior to coming in and I asked them how much it would be to change the gel color and they told me anywhere between $15-$20. I paid nearly $100 for thick, clumpy gel polished nails. They’re thieves plain and simple.

Anyway, it wouldn’t bother me so much if the nails looked beautiful and professional, but they don’t, they look thick and uneven, so sad. I didn’t complain because I like to be polite and I don’t like the nail techs to feel bad about their work. Now I got to go to Hawaii with these clumpy mash potatoes looking nails. SMH. Below is the information to the nail salon that I highly recommend you all going. It’s a Tustin not too far away from Irvine.

I finally found a place I can call my nail salon home! When I first walked in I was greeted with a smile and a warm welcome! I came in for a mani and pedi and I left feeling so relaxed and rejuvenated! Pink was my manicurist and she was impeccable, thorough and very precise. I was very pleased with her work and my nails beds have never looked so good before! Mymy did my pedicure and she was so sweet and very pleasant to be around. She really took her time and her massage was awesome. It was not painful and neither one of them cut me so that's bonus points right there. The salon is relaxing with soft music! There are a lot of places in Irvine for nails spas but Happy Nails in Alton Square is the best! Thank you to the wonderful staff for making my experience here very...

I was there with my daughter to get manicures - I had someone different , great experience ( nail tech named Lee ). My young 10 year old daughter had an older women with glasses and pearl clip in her hair . Firstly she didn’t look like she wanted to be there , cut too much of her cuticle , never said hi looked at my daughter or asked if she liked it , and my sweet daughter said I didn’t get a even get massage at end. Also, she wasn’t paying attention to simple flower design my daughter showed her . I had to ask my nail tech to remind her. She was super impersonal. This sort of behavior is unacceptable, in especially because she’s a child. I’m very disappointed , I will rethink going there . Just to clarify I did not leave a tip for her however I did tip my...
