    Finally got the name of the female who does my pedicure! Her name is Diane! She always makes my pedicures look great. I have always left satisfied and for a gel pedicure it was only $30. Love coming to this nail salon it is so relaxing as well.

    I'm a loyal customer to Friendly Nails. Vicky is meticulous with my gel nails and everyone does a great pedicure. They really are so sweet and friendly. Their prices are also reasonable, which is hard to find in the area!

    I have been going to Friendly Nails for about four years. I go religiously every 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. Vicky and her team do a fabulous job and I've never had any issues with my nails. I've never had a chip or broken nail. Friendly nails is very clean. She always replies to my text messages in a timely fashion, and I always feel so welcomed when I come through the door.

    Great hole in the wall nail salon! I just stumbled into this place and happy I did. Amazing customer service and prices for pedicure/ manicure. This will be my future spot now.

    Started the season with a new look - cat eye polish. Ask for Cherry and Diane. They are detailed and take care of you.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND SOFIA!! SHE IS AMAZING! I am not one to be easy going when it comes to beauty. sofia is patient and detail oriented. She is professional! She tries her best to get you out of the nail salon satisfied. She is a sweetheart and very friendly. I am not one to go a nail salon since I personally have good nails and know how to design, but I have loved working with Sofia. She definitely got me addicted to a routine nail session. I uploaded her beautiful work below. I THINK THE OWNER SHOULD CONSIDER GIVING SOFIA A GOOD RAISE! SHE IS AMAZING!!

    Snow falling gel mani by Vicki

    Vickie is so great. My nails last for 3 weeks every time I get dip. She is very talented. Friendly also does a good pedicure. Get the callus remover, you will leave with smooth feet.

    1 month post mani, still shiny and intact. And LONG

    These are probably the best Gel nails I have ever gotten done in my entire life. I don't say that lightly. These have lasted AN ENTIRE MONTH. Of course they're looking a little worn, but I have never had gel builder nails last this long, make my nails this thick, and not chip until literally yesterday. I came in on a Sunday and was about 10 minutes late for my appointment, so i'm thinking my wait time was affected by that, but even so, I did have to wait about an hour and and half to finally get seen by someone and even then, they left me unattended for way longer than necessary while soaking my nails. Their shop was BUSY, which is a good sign, even if annoying lol. I had complained to the tech that the last shop I went to charged me to cut my cuticle and didn't tell me til the end; this shop did the exact same thing to me, plus charged to take off my last polish, so that is what resulted in a 4/5 stars. Since having to find a new shop in the past 6 months, i've noticed most places in this part of Costa Mesa do this, so I might have to find a place outside of here where I won't get charged for my cuticle, which is literally part of a manicure... Paid around $55 including tip for the most durable gel builder manicure i've ever gotten. The extra $10 dollars miiiight just be worth it. Will definitely come back in the future.

    Highly recommend Sofia for nails, she's super professional, sweet, If you show her a picture of what you want, she will do all she can to copy it the best she can. She was so detailed and friendly. She told me what would work best so that my nails last longer. She did an amazing job. I got a pedicure, and it was so relaxing.

    Gel manicure

    Enjoyed my day off by getting a gel manicure by Connie. She was so sweet and we had a great conversation. I will definitely be back soon to see her! Hard to find a place that does a good job and has great conversation. Linda did my cousins nails. She did a great job as well. Everyone here is so nice. They followed Covid procedures and made us feel safe. Can't wait to come back and chat.

    Formerly OC Waxing, Bare is still the same business. The Costa Mesa location is on a Main Street so…read morethere's not always front parking but they have a small lot in the back. Decent prices and clean facility. I have gone here for my lady parts a handful of times and it's been a great experience. I have been waxing for awhile so I can't speak to newbies who want feedback on pain. Just so you know the first few times are uncomfortable. If you have a high pain tolerance you're good. If you're more sensitive, ask if they have a numbing agent and pop some Motrin ample time before your appointment. My tech, Kiley was outstanding. Personable, professional and took care of the area well. I will definitely go back to her when I make another appointment.

But the 2nd and 3rd time I came here Linda wasn't there so I was seen by someone else and both times , I asked for a playboy yet I didn't get what I wanted. One waxed everything off forgetting I was getting a play boy, and the other time the girl doing my playboy didn't do it correctly. I assumed she didn't know what a triangle playboy looked like because when she was done , it didn't look like a triangle at all. And staff gets rude when you tell them how you wanted it after not going it correctly. Not coming back to this locations again. Staff needs to be trained more. Staff also needs to confirm what kind of wax the client is getting before waxing everything off .

Manicure - I ended up getting a pink jelly gel nail and am really happy with the results! I showed a reference photo and the nail tech was able to help me pick out a color. Pedicure - For my pedicure I had a mixed experience. I wanted to go with a pink polish on my toes, however, I was asked if I wanted gel instead of polish 3 separate times because "polish will chip in 2 days". She also asked me which color I wanted on my toes 3 separate times even though I had picked my color already, and then ended up selecting a color for me. I'm happy with the overall results of the pedicure but the process itself was a bit stressful. Payment - I paid with card and tipped cash and was told "next time pay with cash". Overall, I was happy with the end results and the speed and availability, but there are some things service-wise that could be improved upon.
