    Pedi service
    Angela S.

    Nice ambience, clean and updated decor. They have wonderful prices for a meni/pedi service. First time here was for my birthday as a treat to myself. Only downfall was the manicure was done in the pedi chair as opposed to taking me to a seat.

    She lied about mine and my friend about the prices, my nails were done by the owner she was incredibly unprofessional my nails are very uneven and have bumps, nics and small hairs in them. My friend did a fill and she was charged more than I was for 1 dot design. I will absolutely be contacting the proper people to get a refund. She refused to discount me

    Smucked nail polish.. even had hands under the cooling air

    Let the attached pictures speak for themselves.. the nail polish just wouldn't dry.. she put thinner in the polish yo make it go further as it was the bottom of the bottle instead of getting a new one. And no the polish was not thick, it was just at the end of the polish. I could not communicate with this young gal. This isn't the first time.

    I love this salon. I love the employees that work there, I've been there three times now and each time just amazing, so kind, quick but well done and the owner is the sweetest person

    Disgustingly dirty

    I have been going to Happy Nails for years. I was pleased when they expanded and remodeled. It was beautiful! However, it has gone downhill very fast. My latest experience was awful! The facility is so dirty! They don't clean up between customers. You are literally placing your hands in other peoples fingernails. Their utensils are filthy. Everything is a mess! My technician spent more time answering the phone then attending to me. She didn't listen to what I wanted and cut my nails very short. It wasn't a relaxing experience at all! I like the people there. Again, I have been going there for years! I hope they get their act together!

    I recently moved to McFarland and have been trying places in Monona, the east side of Madison, and McFarland. I was looking for a no frills place to get a basic pedicure for a good price. I found it! I walked into Happy Nails without an appointment. I was greeted promptly and instructed to pick out my polish from the wall of bottles. MANY colors to choose from, probably half of it was OPI and the other half was a mix of brands like China Glaze. Now, the overall esthetic of this place is .... well, it has no esthetic. None whatsoever. But it does have five clean pedicure thrones and hardworking, friendly staff who know what they are doing. The nail technician wore gloves throughout my pedicure. She was efficient and able to convey what she wanted me to do by touch only. The basic pedicure included the standard soak, cuticle push, callus removing, orange salt scrub of feet and calves, and a great, wonderfully FIRM massage. It did not feel like she was wearing gloves. I was charged $27. I left her a "whopping" $6 tip (over 20%) and left there with happy feet. I didn't have to pay for fancy chandeliers or neon lights, but they do have a fish tank and a tv on the wall. This is a bare bones operation for a bare bones price. I will definitely go back.

    New ownership is pretty bad. I'm kept waiting for up to an hour for a scheduled appointment and often simply turned away.

    The people are friendly. The pedi is great. The mani needs work. But it's cheap. So you get what you pay for.

    Very beautiful setup and space. Unfortunately the couples massage therapists were sub par. We…read morecontinued to ask for firmer pressure as the massage was very light and not targeted towards general muscle areas. Massages were only manipulated through thumbs and pressure points, all which were light touch even when we documented our pressure level preference in the information sheet filled out at the beginning. We had to continually ask for pressure and it was not well received. The massage overall was more of a light pet, over skin. We left very unsatisfied. We do not recommend this facility. They forgot to give us our chocolates and drinks but remembered after they came to finish the foot soak. Their chocolate dipped strawberries looked like a 5 year old made them. Clumpy and not presentable.

    Love going here! Have gone here twice now. First was a couples massage with a beverage and…read morechocolate covered strawberries. WAS GREAT!! Relaxing. Then I just went to have a chocolate facial which I had never heard of. Smooth and silky and who wouldn't like the scent! She really looks at your skin and makes recommendations for what is needed in the facial. The only recommendation I have is to have different size robes or coverings and my boyfriend said next time he will know to ask for a more muscle intensive massage. I can't wait to go back for my next treatment....perhaps a wrap, or scrub or massage...she has SO many options!!

She is a sweetheart and knows how to cut hair, color, and style. I'm extremely satisfied with my service, I showed her a picture of the color I wanted and she was able to match it. I will be back in about 6 weeks for a toner. I got my haircut and styled for about $200.00, the price is right here! Style 5/5 I want to start off by saying that Savanna did my hair and it turned out great, she's very good at listening to what you ask for and matching that. I was satisfied with my style. Make-up 1/5 Savanna is a nice person, however...I do not recommend her to do anyones make-up. To sum it up it nice, she doesn't know how to apply it. I specifically showed her a photo of what I wanted and she wasn't able to deliver. I didn't want anything too crazy, just light eyeshadow and winged eyeliner. She gave me a dark eyeshadow, she had to ask someone to help her apply my eye liner, did not match my eyebrow color correctly (not all ethic people have black eyebrows), and gave me dark colored lips when I asked her for a neutral color. Very dissatisfied with how my make up turned out, sadly I didn't have enough time to fix it before my photo shoot. I will not be going to savanna for make up ever again.
