    I've been here a couple of times and keep coming back. Just share your ideas or preferences--she never disappoints. Appointments are easy to book, and they even take walk-ins with just a short wait, which I really appreciate. If you love nail art, this place is a must-visit.

    One of my favorite nail salons in OC! Designs are beautiful, there's quick & efficient service, & I leave with stunning nails each time I come! They also allow you to choose a Netflix show or movie to watch while you get your nails done, which I love. I would come here again!

    Such a 'gem' of a nail salon! They're always clean, efficient, and so welcoming from the moment you walk in. They work fast but never rush your design -- they really take their time to make sure it's perfect. They consistently execute the best designs, and my nails never break or lift even after weeks. Definitely the best nail salon in OC with great prices too Plenty of parking too, which is a huge plus!

    I am late to review but I really wanted to say these girls were amazing! I called them for an appointment while I was in California visiting and they took us in last minute and the experience was amazing and so relaxing. They were sweet and let us choose a movie. I loved the vibe, when I visit my mom again, I will definitely be stopping by! They gave me everything I asked for and I loved how she cleaned up my nails after. Some nail salons leave you with the stuff and ugly but she cleaned up my nails after which I love!

    I cannot say enough good things about this nail salon. The staff communicates if they are running behind and takes the time to really do a good job on your nails. There isn't anything they can't do. My pedicure was so relaxing and the massage was amazing. My nails came out so cute and so did my daughters. It is very quant nails salon which makes it very relaxing. All the nail techs do a great job so it doesn't matter who you get!!

    Everyone here is amazing! We did a walk in today and had no wait time. Everyone was very sweet and welcoming. The place looks very clean and is very beautiful. Will definitely be coming back.

    if you were thinking about trying cat eye polishes i 100% recommend!

    Came back for several more visits and I continue to be impressed with Gemies Nails Salon!! This place is truly a gem in OC. The space is always welcoming, and adorable, and it feels just as great every time I walk in. Ava, the manager, is consistently warm and attentive, making sure everything runs smoothly and that clients are well taken care of. Jade and Mia are amazing as always. They are detailed, patient, and dedicated to making sure my nails and pedicure turn out perfect every single time. You can genuinely feel how much pride they take in their work. :)

    Love the girls here! They always do such a great job and never over-file my nails. Their prices are very reasonable and their schedules are flexible.

    This place is a hidden gem. After looking for years for a nail shop that actually wants to do the art you provide them is very awesome. I've been coming here for less than a year and have gotten service from most of the young ladies here and all of them do amazing work. If you have a chance give the a chance you won't regret it.

    Gaby G.

    Jade and Ava were amazing! Very happy with my nails and my pedicure. They have a promotion and enjoy the service and atmosphere.

    I asked for short square french tip and got exactly what I wanted. I love it! Ava did great! She added white chrome on top which was such a cute idea. Ava, Mia, and Jade are super sweet! They let me and my friends choose what to watch and offered drinks. I recommend this nail salon!

    Ava absolutely killed this set. I messaged on instagram the night before and was able to book with her ASAP. Ava was very detailed oriented and so accommodating. She was quick with this set but also very meticulous with her work. I will definitely be booking with her again.

Trying out a brand new…read moresalon right before my big day made me a little nervous, but looking back at the results, I'm so glad I did! Getting to the salon wasn't too difficult, some street parking wasn't too difficult. The salon had a cute and modern vibe to it! I was instantly seated by Tammy and she got to work. They had an iPad at each station, which really made my experience here relaxing. I had a hard gel set on, and Tammy did mention how they'd have to start clean and remove this set. I was charged for removal, which I wasn't the greatest fan of. I asked Tammy for a classic nude, white ombré with a bit of glitter on top, and she delivered! This is probably the best set of ombré nails I've ever had done!!! I've had many nail techs say how ombré nails look better on longer nails, but Tammy made things work with the nail length I was comfortable with! I was a bit skeptical of the longevity since it wasn't the hard gel I'm used to, but this set legit lasted me over FOUR WEEKS (with the exception of one nail that had gel-ex on because of some previous nail damage)! If I were in the area more often, I'd go back to Buttercup in a heartbeat!!!! They are on the pricier side, but you'll be paying for quality IMO.

They also put you in these super comfortable reclining chairs with blankets. It's perfect to take a nap. Only downside is that there is no parking, just 3 parking spots. And the pedicure was pretty pricey. I think my pedicure was about $55.. and my nail tech did a good job at taking ingrown nail but they did not follow the shape of the nail that I asked for.

Unfortunately, the service I received did not meet the standards of a true Russian manicure. The technique and attention to detail were lacking, and it felt more like a basic manicure than the premium service I expected. I've been getting Russian Manicure for years and I don't mind paying a premium for high-quality work, but in this case, it felt like a misrepresentation. The staff were polite, and the salon was clean, but I think it's important for salons to be transparent about the services they offer--especially when using specific terms like "Russian manicure" that come with certain expectations. I hope they either improve the technique or adjust the pricing and labeling of the service to reflect what's actually being delivered.

I chose a white that had a sheer look to it so I understood it's not a solid color but a little more effort in having it be at least consistent would have been nice. The lady was a little rough with cleaning my cuticles and the whole service felt very rushed. I was trying to show in the pictures the inconsistency with the shape and part of the nail actually not being covered with paint. She overextended onto my skin and still ended up leaving the cuticles very choppy. In addition, I don't know what it is, but something was left on the polish before it was cured so now it's stuck in the nail. If I was from the area I definitely would not be returning here

It was painful getting my gel off, getting my cuticles pulled, and the scrub on my legs was too much. Then a corner was taken off one of my toenails, half of them are uneven, parts of the nails don't have enough glitter flakes, and my large toenail didn't get filed or taken off properly and looks like I have stuff under it. I paid for a deluxe but there was absolutely nothing done that was in addition to a regular pedicure....no paraffin wax, callous removal, etc. When we were finishing up, I asked Lisa if I could use the restroom. She said yes but when I asked the Bosslady where it was she said they didn't have a working bathroom. Interesting. I will not be returning.
