I've been back to Alii Nails twice since I've been back home in Kapolei, HI. The first time I got a full set gelx , pedicure, eyebrow wax & hybrid lashes. I'm back again almost a month later and got the acrylic full set, color change & my eyebrows. The husband and wife who does acrylics are amazing they provide top notch service. Kim is amazing as well she works quick and efficient. The vibe from when u first came here when they first opened is still amazing and the service is quick. Unless you come around a holiday like I did, please expect quick service and amazing work. EYELASHES TOOK 45 MIN AND THEYRE STILL ON!! 1 MONTH. One thing I do like is their stamp card!!! I absolutely love it & definitely retains me as a customer. I'll be moving back for good and will be back for my girly maintenances!! One thing: it's easier to pay in cash. There's a bunch of fees when you do it any other way. read more

I've been to this salon before and had a great experience with Dara. She was professional, took her time, and I really loved her service, so I decided to come back. Unfortunately, my experience this time was very different. The male technician who helped me seemed to be rushing throughout my manicure and pedicure. When shaping my nails, he didn't ask what shape I wanted and just proceeded with the service. I also found it strange that I was told I needed to pay beforehand because I was getting regular polish. I'm not sure if that is the salon's normal policy, but it wasn't clearly explained to me. The manicure itself was disappointing. My cuticles were not properly cleaned up, and the polish application was messy, with nail polish left around my nails and on my skin. I accidentally touched a couple of my nails on the towel, and he made a comment to the person next to him in Vietnamese. I don't know what was said, so I don't want to make assumptions, but the way it happened made me feel uncomfortable and not professional. Overall, I felt like the service was rushed and not very professional. I came in expecting the same level of care I received from Dara previously, but unfortunately, this visit was not the same. I hope management can address this because I really liked this salon before and would have liked to continue coming back. After this incident, I do not see myself coming back to this nail salon. read more

The service was great up until I was charged over charged taxes to pay via Venmo to a personal account. When questioned about why they didn't use a business account, the poor nail techs tried their best to respond. Overall, the techs were great but the shady business practice leaves much to be desired. Edit to respond below. Taxes can and should be charged except the Venmo account people pay is a personal account. How would you be able to account for the taxes with no proper documentation? The proper way would be to charge with a business Venmo account. Otherwise, you're scamming customers. read more

Over $100 and several hours later, I walked out with a set that honestly looks like it should have been corrected before I ever left the chair. The shape is inconsistent, the nails are bulky, my cuticles were overworked, and the attention to detail simply wasn't there. I understand that everyone has off days, but this level of workmanship doesn't reflect a premium service or premium pricing. When clients are paying luxury prices, they should receive luxury quality. This experience completely missed the mark, and I won't be returning. I hope this salon takes quality and customer satisfaction more seriously moving forward. read more

Ali'i Nails & Lash Bar - Nails by Mary - Nail Salons Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Updated review. Even after all these years, THE best nail salon when it comes to QUALITY. I've tried other nail salons but this is top tier. All the staff does an amazing job, but my favorite to get my nails from is Mia. She does THE best work, is super friendly & always gives me exactly what I'm looking for! This salon is peaceful & not super chaotic like other salons. They keep conversations to a minimum so you can fully relax. The only con is that it takes longer than most salons, but they PAY ATTENTION to detail and I swear my toe & fingernails LASTT SOOO LONG. No chipping, no broken nail, etc. the details in my nail designs are always effortless and not sloppy! read more

Seriously so disappointing. Paid $170 for a gel manicure and pedicure (tip included) for my manicure to chip two days later. I got these done on Saturday 8/8 because I wanted to get them done for my birthday. These won't even last two days and my birthday is on the 15th... highly and extremely disappointed. The quality isn't there. For almost $200, this salon is extremely overpriced for the work that they do. Manicure was rushed and I felt completely invisible the entire time as my nail tech left me several times to work on other people. Please do not overbook clients as the work isn't quality! read more

Great service, reasonable prices for Hawai'i, beautiful results. I walked in today with two friends and we were taken immediately. There weren't enough available girls to start all of our pedicures at once, but Rose got us all into massage chairs so we could relax and talk story. She was quick and efficient, but friendly and engaging at the same time. Beautiful results for all of us! I'll definitely be back. Mahalo Rose! read more

Nice salon and my technician did a great job on both my manicure and spa pedicure. Everything looked beautiful and the service was good. My only issue was the price -- I nearly choked when it was time to pay! This salon is definitely a bit pricier than others in the area, so just be prepared for that. read more

Worst experience I've ever had. I got who I think was the owner and the only male. To start he made me wait so he could eat even though I had an appointment. He was very impatient and was working really fast. He cut my nails unevenly. This is where it gets bad, he became very frustrated and rude when I didn't like the shape of my nails. I asked for an Oval and he got mad and flailed his arms because he said it was oval, but it wasn't. It was flat at the top. I showed him a picture of oval and he got even more aggravated saying that it was almond. I was so uncomfortable and tense. I almost cried. After he shaped it to what he says was almond, a woman came over because she could tell I was upset and asked what shape I wanted. When I said oval she looked at my nails and said that was oval. He crossed his legs and continued to show frustration. I literally googled OVAL French tip so I'm not sure how this is my fault. The worst part is they charged me $105. It was regular acrylic. I'm sure they charged me extra for his "almond" and I know French tip is extra but I can't seem to figure out how it comes out to $105 before tip, just a mani. The bride whose wedding I was getting my nails done for got gel X, chrome, and pearls. Hers was $105. How does that make sense? The first picture is the brides who did get almond. The second is of my nails, which he "says" is "almond". Sorry for the lady who is really nice. But, I won't be going back. Terrible. read more

Loved it here, very comfortable space. Workers were very kind and really the best people to talk to. For my Pedi I had Cindy I believe and she was the sweetest, always constantly checking if I liked the process or if I was okay. Love her. For my mani I believe I had rose, I'm sure I gave her a tough design, and instead of looking challenged or flustered she smiled warmly and gave me a thumbs up. The picture of the nails I wanted were really ideal and I did not expect my nails to look like the inspo pic, but really it looked better! I didn't get to express how I felt about them at the shop because I was a bit shy but I am truly impressed and obsessed with them, and my service overall ! I HIGHLY recommend coming here if your looking for nice nails, pretty lashes, or even down to a great conversation. Love, love, love this spot ! read more

Stopped in to have manicure redone and my pedicure done. I was holding off for my normal technician but she's on vacation who knew how long that will be for. So I was referred here by a friend, I didn't get the ladies name who helped me but they were welcoming and service was quick! I did a gel manicure and pedicure. All in all the nails came out good. I wish I got photos .... Aside from the Knick on my cuticle on my hands and my feet my nails came out good. Service good! Nail jobs good! Ambience good! read more

Went in for a walk in, went back and was pampered! Thank you Kim for being so kind and understanding. I appreciate you and will be back for more pampering soon! read more

went here about 2 weeks ago and noticed that they used dirty sanding bands on the e-file on my nails, and also a dirty nail file to shape nails. I also noticed while taking my nails off, that she drilled too deep into my natural nail leaving rings of fire! sadly i won't be back! read more

I called to set up an appointment, which was easy and quick. The place had a clean vibe. When I arrived, I asked for a pamper me pedicure with regular nail polish, no gel. The woman helping me told me gel is better, but I said no thanks. She brought it up again later and even asked if I wanted to upgrade to the fancy pedicure with hot stones for circulation since I was pregnant. I said no again. Somehow, she still ended up putting gel on my nails, which I didn't notice at first because I don't get my nails done often. When I went to pay, I saw the price was much higher than expected. I asked why, and they said I got gel. I told them I clearly said I didn't want gel, and they don't even give you an itemized receipt, which all nail salons should do. read more

I've been coming here for a few years now, and always have a pleasant experience. I've always called ahead to make an appt because it does get busy, especially on the weekends. But I've also done walk ins a few times and they were still able to take me. Service is good, always friendly and nice. I've never left there unhappy, and will continue to come here for my Nails. read more

I was hesitant to leave a review because the woman that did my pedicure was really old and I feel bad for people her age that are still having to work, but I drew the line when my pedicure started to crack... I went to this shop on 06/11/25 and today is 06/14/25... first of all my toenails were cut super crooked (I had asked to keep them square). And I felt bad because she was old and I would just take it as a lesson learned not to go back. I left a decent tip and went on about my day. Yesterday I noticed my gel pedicure was already chipped and that's with me just using slippers and being at home. Definitely wasn't worth the price I paid (68 for a gel pedicure with removal from my previous pedi, tipped her 10). read more

Dara was simply awesome creating beautiful nails for my aging hands and a pedicure that was relaxing and thorough.

Gigi rushed my cat eye nails, and within 2 days the polish already started peeling off my nails.

Pedicure date with my daughter. It was a long time since I treated myself to a pedicure. We went as walk-ins, but they do accept appointments. We selected the Spa Pedicure with gel polish. I originally chose regular polish for us because it was the less expensive option but my tech persuaded me to give it a try and I'm glad I did. Service is welcoming and friendly and yes like most nail salons the techs talk to each other in their native language whille they work on you which never bothered me. To be honest, I rather prefer it because I can just sit back and relax especially after a long day at work. My tech did a great job and was not overly aggressive with cutting and filing phases which was much appreciated. The space and equipment are clean. Prices are competitive. read more

Always a good job. Dara is the best!!!! She always takes her time and makes your nails perfect.

Update. The manager reached out, I advised him I'm traveling. He was agreeable to fix the situation when I return I 3-4 weeks. Normally I'm very pleased. Less than 18 hours later and its chipped. My gel nails normally last 2 - 3 weeks and have never chipped at the top of the nail read more

Got the Deluxe pedicure, was HORRIBLE! The person who did my feet rushed the entire process & wasn't even worth the cost! I asked for hot stones instead of paraffin because it burns my feet, she realized that i asked for hot stones & didn't choose to fix her mistake. After the hot paraffin, she had another client who was waiting for her while she was servicing me, then RUSHED the remaining process. Along with the massage, that was painful as she had long fingernails that would dig into my feet & massaged my SHIN! Never going back again, i choose to spend my money on a pedicure somewhere else where it's worth my money. Horrible experience read more

I requested for service on a busy Friday evening, in the midst of graduations I wanted to get my nails done. I was accommodated and had GIGI as my nail tech. I absolutely loved the service I received, not only was it quick but after almost 3 weeks everything is still intact. I look forward to going back to her again. read more

The pedicure chairs are so comfortable and they recline pretty far back. The massage settings are light for my taste but the reclining chair makes up for it. The Ali'i Signature Package was a treat. I appreciated my nail tech fitting in a cuticle treatment and file for my nails and letting me stay in the massage chair since I was waiting for my friend. Will definitely be back to get my vacation nails done! read more

I am very satisfied with my time here!! I called on a Thursday to make a next day appointment for 3 people. At first, the person helping me told me they could only fit us in at 4PM, but I was looking for 5 or later. Thankfully, she was able to accommodate us at 5 for three pedicures. Their location is easy to find. It's in the shopping center next to Walmart Kapolei where Jersey Mike's and Sports Clips is. We came in 15 minutes earlier than our appointment and they were nice enough to seat us in. We checked in, wrote down our information, and washed our hands. But they didn't take our temperature. The salon is fairly clean and I noticed that they just spray and wipe down the seats after someone's been in it. Their pedicures are pretty standard. Once we've got our toes soaked in, they gave us the menu to choose what pedicure service we wanted. The basic pedicure is $27 and the spa pedicure is $37. The difference is that you get one or two more scrub services and an 8 minute massage. I was a bit taken aback by the prices because I thought it was a bit expensive for the services. But during these times I guess I can understand. However, I know there are other salons that offer cheaper prices. I will be back again because of the staff. They were so nice and took their time will they were doing the pedicure. read more

The lady Ivy was doing my nails for months. One day she rescheduled my appointment without asking me and when I told her rescheduling my appointment without asking wasn't reasonable, she said I was being angry and I always "did that".. even though I always agreed to switch the times of my appointment whenever she asked. And sometimes when I'd ask her to fix up a design, she'd never really do it. I liked the place at first, but my last experience was disappointing. read more

I don't think I have ever been to a nail salon I've loved so much! When it comes to a mani/pedi, I'm pretty minimalistic. I enjoy a long-lasting gel mani & regular polish pedi. Both my mani/pedis at this shop lasts forever (3 weeks, no chips or peeling) & I love that! The last few times I've went, I had the pleasure of getting my nails did by (Hoang). Definitely went above and beyond for me each time. Always making sure I'm happy with everything. She is also really great to talk to. Highly recommend this nail salon. Very professional, highly skilled, and great artists. read more

First time coming here and I was very happy with my service! My girl and I treated ourselves to a full set and deluxe pedi. My nail Technician was Jess, and I definitely recommend her!! I showed her a pic of what I wanted, and she did her own little touch to make it A LOT nicer than the picture I showed her. Service was awesome, the conversation was hilarious, and the overall atmosphere is really calm and chill. Go to Jess! She will crack you up and make your nails poppin! read more

Ali'i Nails & Lash Bar - Spa pedicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Monday - September 19, 2022 I was long over due for a pedicure and the location I'd normally go to wasn't open until 10AM but I didn't feel like waiting. I was checking Yelp for the nearest Nail Salons near me & that was open now. This location popped up so I figured let's give them a call & see if they can take me. I called & asked if they had availability for today (9/19/22) & the lady said "yes, what time would you like to come in?" It was already 9:45AM so I just said "can I come in at 10AM?" She proceeded to say "Yes, we can take you." Location: If you know where Walmart Kapolei is, then it's going to be the small shopping area that has the Pandas Drive Thru. It's in between Locations & Sports Clip(?) I believe a haircut shop. As I walked into the salon I then recognized the lady who used to work at the other location I had been going too for several years. It made me feel more confident in this place since I seen a familiar face. I'm so bad at remembering names but I'm happy she was the one who was going to be doing my pedicure. She's very detailed and really makes me money worth it & allows me to enjoy my self care day. The package deal that I opted for was called 'The Ali'i Special' which was basically all of the services that included in the first 2 packages they offered, which costed around $65 but if you're doing gel it was an additional $20. (Wish I got a photo of their diff packages/prices) Which is fine because for me gel can last up to a month. I always ask to have my nails cut really short so when it's really time for me to get my new pedicure my toe nails are long & at that point I know it's needed. Overall, this location was a great experience I'm glad I went early because only 2-people were in the salon already getting pedicures & it didn't seem as busy. I've learned that going to a Nail salon at the beginning of the week is always the best because it's not too crowded or busy which allows the busy to take last minute appointments or walk ins. It's always recommended to make an appointment but if they aren't busy they'd take walk ins as long as someone is available. Definitely a location to recommend if you're looking to get your nails done & I believe they offer other services but just check the website or contact them. read more
