The owner, Hanna, is amazing. She welcomes guests with a friendly smile and she inspires the nail technicians to be observant to the needs of the clients. I've had pedicures and gel manicures here for years. My husband loves their services as well. This shop is tastefully decorated with many cute seasonal decorations. The management always offers bottled water upon our arrival. One of the first things I noticed about this Studio is the quality of service and the cleanliness. Although I live in Irvine, I still continue to patronize Revo Nail Studio in Corona Del Mar due to the fantastic experiences I've had in previous visits.

I always get compliments on them at least twice a month. I have NEVER experienced my nails popping off and I go to the gym 4-5x a week. They last 4-5 weeks and I always get the same color style (except for the one time I did French tip haha). My go-to is Bubble Bath with chrome! Such a pretty color that lasts weeks. Highly recommend anyone at the salon bc they all do a great job. No one has failed me. Price is reasonable - for a mani pedi, it's about $120. Everyone is friendly and always welcomes me with a smile. They have waters and drinks at the ready if you ask as well and the salon is clean. Overall a great experience for anyone looking to pamper themselves with a fresh set. 2 of my friends have been converted into loyal customers after I raved about them! Totally recommend giving them a shot

I was late to my appointment, which I called prior to coming in to make sure it was still okay for me to come. They assured me that it was okay and that they are ready for me. When I came in, I immediately knew the energy was off. Since I sat down, they were saying things like "oh yeah, she was late so she can wait for us". One of the other nail techs even say "oh feel free to charge her whatever you want" to what my nail tech said "yeah I'm gonna charge her $7 extra". They didn't know I was fluent in Vietnamese. I didn't say anything because I wanted to continue to hear what they had to say about me. They also asked me where I was from and if I lived in the area. I am assuming that they're asking this to gauge what my ethnicity is. Also, they kept bringing up the fact that I was late. If me being late was such an issue, why say that it was okay for me to come and that they are ready for me? At the end of the conversation, I asked what the charges for and they said the $7 was for callous remover. I just took it as that and didn't call them out on it. Right before I left, I told them in Vietnamese that if they were going to talk shit, make sure I wasn't Vietnamese and that people don't understand them. Their shocked faces made the whole experience worth it tbh. In short, these people are probably going to talk shit about you the whole time.
