Japanese gel salon that is worth going since it's high quality and less damaging to the nails! I had an appointment with Rumi on Saturday, she got the job done in a timely manner and similar to the picture I showed her. Her salon is located in a small plaza with cute pink detailed decor. Was very satisfied with my nails after the appointment Would highly recommend for those looking for a Japanese gel nail experience. read more

I requested a Japanese gel manicure and my appointment was with Ellen. She took the time to explain the procedure for taking off my existing gel nails and applying the soft Japanese soft gel base and gel polish. She was meticulous in all aspects of service. She was knowledgeable kind and passionate about her job. My nails have never looked better. It is now 4 weeks later and they are still perfect in color, shape and don't have any chipping at all. I strongly recommend Hime and Ellen for Japanese Gel nails or anything else you wish for . read more

Hime nail always does a great and fast job with me. I can't go to any other place now because I am too spoiled by this place. My nails are particular and have to be filed perfectly in sync with the gels or else they hurt. This is the only place that can file them correctly. The art is always beautiful if I bring in a picture or just let her make up a design. Beautiful pink salon and very comfortable read more

I can tell that they are very thorough in their work, however they are not careful or considerate of you at all. The nail artist cut my cuticles with the metal drill bit twice, and then cut my cuticles with the cuticle clipper once. This was extremely painful during the acetone soak as well. She then proceeded to overfile my nails and the skin around it which caused my skin to break and bleed. She did apologize everytime I brought up how my skin was bleeding but what's the point of apologizing if you're going to do it again?? I understand mistakes happen but if it happens 4 times then it's just a habit at that point. No discount was offered either - I would not pay $120 for this set again. I love going to Japanese nail salons but clearly my nail artist, at least, was not trained well at all. Before the owner brings up I was 7 minutes late to my appointment, I would like to note that I was seated 15 minutes after my appointment time due to them helping another customer with payment. Update: The owner called me herself to offer an apology and full refund. I appreciate the time she took to apologize and she noted that she would do my nails herself if I ever chose to come back to the salon. I understand that being fully booked can cause a nail artist to rush, but I really hope this experience doesn't occur to other customers. The nails themselves were very pretty and well done. If I ever come back to this salon I will post a follow-up review. read more

admittedly I arrived 20 minutes late due to my extremely slow uber driver. I hesitated whether or not to write this because I thought I'd give this place another chance, but I don't think I'll be back. I tried to be really nice and friendly.. I didn't even get angry when she ripped off my cuticles or filed aggressively at my broken skin. But the amount of blood was something I've never experienced before at a nail salon, so I don't think I'll be back. I was then ushered out 10 minutes before my appt would've been an hour so that a more familiar client of hers can come in. I think she may have said sorry once about my bleeding cuticles, but I could literally see the flesh under and I had a wedding to go to, and it's just now started healing - 2 weeks after the appointment. I'm a little suprised at the reviews here. The nails were expensive for what I had which was quite simple design. (total was about $130-150 including the tip). My circle shape wasn't even perfectly circle. Just an all around strange experience. I'll go back to my regular salon in Rowland Heights even if it's far, who also does Japanese/Korean style+quality nails with products from those countries as well. ------ response to the owner: Compared to the design I originally wanted when making the appointment, yes, this design is way simpler. Maybe this is subjective, but I've gotten extremely complex Japanese designs with all the works: 3d decals, pearl french tips, cat eye, ombre, etc. The design I asked for barely had color on my nails, so I'm sorry if I don't consider a few lines and circles on bare nails complicated. Note: I added another layer of beige transparent polish over the marbling you did, and also the purple polish since what you gave me was just transparent powder - no color. The photo I took outside was what I actually walked out of the salon with. It's not matter of if you caused me discomfort - you did. You quite literally ripped my cuticles off and mangled them, and it hurt - a lot. No matter the time, that shouldn't have happened at all. End of story. I didn't even complain nor asked for any discounts because of it, but I don't appreciate your half baked apology. read more

I never get my nails done but wanted to for my wedding. A friend recommended me to Hime Nails and I am so glad that she did. Ellen did an amazing job with my nails and was very fun to talk to. She helped me figure out a cute design based on my Kauai wedding plans and I love it!! read more

Very nice, quiet and relaxed. They're accommodating and provide excellent service. Highly recommend!

let me just say that I had the BEST nail salon experience of my life today. I'm going to break everything down by category (get ready for a long but thorough review! I promise it is worth reading): AMBIANCE & SAFETY: SUPER. CUTE. PLACE. everything is pink. and i mean everything; from their gloves (yes they are very sanitary - more on that in a bit), their mini pink heart cushions for your feet to rest on, their tools, their nail machines, pillows, crystal mini chandelier lamps, etc. I LOVE pink and girly things, so even just being inside Hime Nails was like heaven. I told Chihiro (my nail artist; not tech!) that their salon felt like if I went to a nail salon heaven. I had so much fun just admiring everything inside! Candy and hello kitty peek out in places too! They are covid conscious too; which I appreciate :) pink masks! COMMUNICATION & ETIQUETTE: I don't know about you, but if you've been to the average nail salon, there are sometimes technicians who may appear to be speaking in their native language or talking about you in a way that doesn't feel comfortable. not here. no way! Chihiro and Ellen (who did my wonderful pedicure) are SUPER sweet, polite, knowledgeable, and wonderful timely communicators. I texted them a few times before my appointment and each time, they answered my questions quickly and kindly! So appreciated! Even though they had masks on, you can tell they are so genuine and sweet. They laughed with me when I expressed my love for pink and hello kitty! I've never come across such sweet and polite nail artists before. Just their etiquette itself is 5 stars! SKILLS, AESTHETIC, & MANICURE (Gel-extensions): Ellen and Chihiro are clearly super talented, precise, and artistic. Chihiro gave me suggestions when I was stuck deciding between nail colors, which art to place on which fingers, the colors of stones, etc. I like that she gave her opinions, but didn't make you feel pressured to do a certain way. I saw in a previous reply that Chihiro is an artist and I completely agree. Please see photos of my beautiful nails (and toes). Beyond the extreme cuteness of all my artwork, if you look closely, you can see different sized stones, pearls, and beads that are placed very intricately. This requires an artist's vision and very precise dexterity. Each stone/gem is placed strategically but also beautifully artistic at the same time. If you look closely again, you can see that on my index finger, there is exactly one white heart that is slightly bigger than the other hearts. There is a lot of consideration for contrast and selection of art. I told Chihiro I wanted something with bling, hearts, roses, and pink and the vision became a dream come true. Chihiro was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what kinds of trends were in, all about the nail shapes, and exactly what kind of artwork I desired. Chihiro was very gentle! Ellen was also VERY precise with my pedicure. Everything looks WONDERFUL. The whole experience was like watching art in the making. literally! so interesting! THE PEDICURE: I have NEVER had such a pain free, comfortable, and relaxing pedicure in my 30 something (won't reveal) years of life. Every time I have had a pedicure, there is at least ONE or a few ouches such as when my cuticles are being pushed back or there's some intense filing of some edge of my toenail. I also hate the rough scrubbing. Overall, i really don't like the typical pedicure because there are a lot of minor discomforts. Not at Hime. Wow, not a single ow moment or discomfort. Ellen was gentle, precise, took her time and was very very careful, and graceful. Even when switching my feet in between the UV machine and alternating my painting of toenails, she was super gentle and always made sure my foot was resting on the cute pink heart cushion. I also have a split nail on my pinky toe , and Ellen was really gentle about taking care of it. She talked to me about it and told me how she would file it towards the shape of the gel to make sure it wouldn't grow out and hurt. SO appreciated! I didn't feel a thing either when she was doing so. I no longer dread pedicures after discovering Hime. I told Ellen I really never had such a nice pedicure; hopefully she reads this and knows exactly why I enjoyed it so much. Thank you, Ellen for not making me scared of pedicures anymore! It is a waterless pedicure, so there is not a tub of water and a bunch of lotions and creams to massage your feet/legs, but I actually appreciate the sanitary consciousness of this process. Ellen was also very precise when applying the high quality gel on my toes. Definitely not rushed or rough like some places would be. Keep up the excellent work, Ellen! THANK YOU, HIME NAILS! I will be back for my hello kitty artwork next time!! I have beautiful nails for my birthday and my sister's wedding!! You ladies are really amazing! I hadn't gotten my nails done since the pandemic started, and this was def worth the wait!! What a birthday treat! read more

Go here for beautiful nail art that everyone will compliment your nails for the next weeks. Chihiro is not a nail tech; she is a nail artist, maybe even guru. It is easy to tell she is advanced level in this nail game, just look at the pics of the pink princess theme nails WOW. She is very skilled with replicating a design that you show and doing her own design too if you give her freedom. My nails have lasted 5-6 weeks without any defects, I've already been to this salon 3 times this year cus I love it so much. I used to not do my nails at all but now I'm afraid that I can't stop. It is a fun treat and the process is very relaxing in the little, 2-clients max, pink themed shop. I'm glad to have found this gem and would recommend to anyone who is looking for specialized or complicated designs for your big events. read more

I love my nails by Chihiro! Base bio gel is 65 plus you have to pay for all the add ons. I showed her a photo of what I was thinking of, and the result exceeded my expectations. It's definitely a splurge but so worth it. It's not the normal manicure experience - it's more about the art/design and quality of the Japanese bio gel. She did an amazing job and can't wait to go back. read more

Hime Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Tustin, California

Appointment only! At times it can take them a week to get you in. So make sure to book in advance. It's located in a small strip of businesses. They have enough parking for their customers. This salon is small and quite private. It's either Rumi alone, who btw is the owner, or her and another nail technician. She has been in business for a long time and is always up to date on rhinestones and designs. Prices are based on the design and or rhinestones you want. They use a Japanese gel called bio-sculpture, which feels natural and looks amazing. They take their time, you won't feel rushed. Keep in mind this isn't a salon where you will pay $20 or $40 bucks for long lasting gel. Want the basic gel polish that's $40 - one color and $60 for Bio-gel. It's a high-end gel or better said quality gel, that can last up to 6 weeks without chipping. I found this salon 8 years ago after becoming highly allergic to acrylic nails. That was the last time, I used acrylics or low quality gel for my nails. This is the cutest kawaii salon I've been to. Everything is super girly and it makes you feel like a princess. Rumi has a large collection of high-end rhinestones to chose from. Name it, she has it! She gets down and is very artistic as well as anyone she hires. For a fabulous set of nails you'll pay a good amount $90 and up. Keep in mind it can last from 4-6 weeks. My nails usually take about an hour and a half and that's if I get 2 designs. read more

I went to Hime Nails for the first time when I was still in college and I loved getting acrylic extensions that were sparkly and extravagant. After I got a real job and long nails were impractical, I stopped getting my nails done. But for my wedding I ALWAYS knew I wanted Rumi from Hime Nail to make my nails pretty! So I visited her for the first time in 10 years and she amazingly still remembered me. Still remembered bits and fragments of things we chatted about 10 years ago! She is truly amazing not only because she's a talented nail artist but because she really cares for her clients and genuinely is a very sweet person. I was so happy to get gel extensions that matched my dress for my wedding. read more

I have seen Chihiro three times now for gel nails and each time her work has turned out beautiful and flawless. It is worth the extra dollars because of the quality of her work and the materials she uses. Their place is also very clean and well maintained. Scheduling online was a very easy and straightforward process, and Chihiro even reached out to me directly one time via text to assist in the details. I don't get my nails done often but when I have special occasions, I will always go back to Hime nails. read more

Chihiro did such an amazing job on my bridesmaid nails. I had high expectations when I entered here, and Hime Nails really delivered. The facility is small, but designed to feel cozy, clean, and super adorable. The experience is much more personal, since there are only two appointments at a time. This means that they can pay special attention to their clients, and take their time to create exactly what is desired. I ended up getting gel nails, with a healthy dose of bling. I had fun chatting with the ladies, and really appreciate the patience and care I recieved from Chihiro. tl;dr 10/10, will return. read more

I went to Hime Nails for about 9 months straight last year and loved Rumi's kindness, skill, and creativity. I like to grow my nails really long, and Cal Gel helped make them stronger and isn't as harsh as acrylics. My fabulous nails got so much attention. On top of looking great, they were super durable, I never had so much as a rhinestone fall off. After taking a break from Cal Gel nails for a year, I wanted them on again and decided to try another place that will remain nameless. Total mistake! The place didn't have nearly the charm of the entirely pink Hime Nails, the 3D art wasn't as good, and my nails started to lift at the cuticle after only a week, which never ever happened when Rumi did them! Needless to say I have an appt. tomorrow at Hime Nails to get my nails redone and I will never stray again. read more

went in the other day for a full set of gel with designs on 4 nails. my total was $113 with tip. rumi took a lot of care with my nails. she fixed things when it wasnt perfect and took time to make sure it was the right design for me. i got goldish/pink glitter with pink heart confetti, rhinestones, and 3d hearts. i really loved my nails and was glad i didnt have to seat through the smell of acrylic. it was all gel done. i love it. i hope it lasts for a good 3 weeks =). overall, pricey. since there are many of these nail places opening that are cheaper, i do think it would be reasonable to drop the price just a little. her price is the highest of all these salons. althought it is pricey though, i just like rumi because i know she would not make them tacky look and will put a lot of care into them. i love her one on one experience. so yes, it is a little expensive comparatively to other places but they will turn out beautiful. read more

Finally...I have found a really good Japanese nail salon near me! This place is so cute... you definitely feel like a princess getting your nails did! The salon is tiny and intimate, but I felt very comfortable. Rumi is very personable and sweet. She's also super talented... just go to her website to see her work! It's truly art! I usually get acrylics, with gradation, gel coat, & some 3D art... which usually comes out to $75-95(not including tip) depending on how extravagant the nail art is. I've only gotten my nails done a few times and LOVED it! But I haven't been back lately because her pricing is a little more than I can afford every couple of weeks! A girl's gotta eat =) I'd highly recommend this place if you don't mind spending the money... and if you don't mind random people asking about your nails! I've never gotten so many compliments on a manicure before! read more

It's $40 for a fill, but it's worth it if you want high quality work, it doesn't start lifting. 2/15/10 I'm going to update my review because over the last six months I've really gotten attached to Rumi's salon.

I wanted to write a review so I can share my experience with Ellen. Let me start by mentioning that I never get my nails done due to risk of infections and UV light exposure. Ellen and Hime Nails have changed that ! Not one thing made me doubt their sanitary precautions, and they use LED light. Ellen is very nice to chat with, made sure I got exactly what I wanted and is a really nice and patient artist, not to mention very talented. You can tell that they really care about their customers and not just in it for the money. As for price I asked upfront how much the design I had in mind was gonna cost, and price she gave me was exactly what I paid before tip. And please understand that while you can get regular gel, I opted for the gel overlay which is available at only a few salons in the US, uses Japanese products and require a certification and training of the artists. Hence the higher price tag than other salons and regular gel. My nails looked as good as new for 3 weeks and I went back for a fill for the growing portion. So the price of gel overlay is so worth it ! I found the prices to be reasonable for the service and very clear and upfront, No hidden fees ! The owner is very responsive when contacted by texts and very accommodating. I really feel valued and appreciated as a customer, and I will continue to return ! read more

It is pricy place, but I loved the interior design she had for this nail shop. I felt like, I just entered a room that I always dreamed of; princess-like, sweet lolita feeling like room. The lady was from Japan, she was very friendly and polite. I enjoyed a conversation with her while she was doing my nails. It is expensive but I really do like their atmosphere and the decorative room. I told what I like to be done for a nail, also had told her that I'm a student. She gave me discount because I am a student, and their nails are a bit pricey for me to pay; maybe she had sympathy on me..haha. I was happy, loved the service overall. They had little snack jar next to the sofa I was sat to wait her to finish the customer came earlier than me. The time I visited here was a dinner time so I was bit hungry, she let me eat some chocolate they had in the snack jar. My favorite white chocolate kitkat. The nail she had done is very pretty. I asked her for a Gel-type nail polish, gradation design of ice white color-to-blue glitter combination. Also, treat my nail tips as rounded shape and she did well job on this! I really do satisfied with it when it was done. I would love to visit here again when I get paid for a job and save enough to come here for the expensive designed nail that I originally planned for. My nail at the first time visiting were 60 dollars, but the one I originally wanted were around 160 USD. I would love to come back with saved budget to have the one I desired. read more

She does beautifully detailed work that you will be amazed. My favorite are the 3D she place ever so delicately on your finger tips.

I stumbled upon Hime Nails by searching on Yelp for a salon that offers Japanese style nail art in the Anaheim area. I used to live in Tokyo so I am very familiar with this trend and I know what to look for. Unfortunately, no salon offers this service where I go to school. Luckily I found a great salon to go to while I was on vacation. At Hime Nails, Rumi will do your service. She is a very talented artist and she is really nice. The salon is very cute and is decorated in a girly style- lots of pink and lace! There are lots of Japanese nail art magazines to look through for inspiration. Or take a look at her photo albums of nail art. I got 3D art plus stones placed on top of my sculpted nails (pink glitter gradation)! Totally adorable. My nails look so glamorous and are holding up well. Some people are complaining about the price but I think her prices are reasonable. I paid a little over $100 for handcrafted nails that will last a month (or more if I get a fill). That is a good deal to me. Also, I am used to paying almost $200 in Tokyo where I got my nails done. I think that this is an appropriate price to pay for looking good and not having to worry about your nails for a while. Rumi speaks fluent English, so no worries about communication. Give her a call to make an appointment! I spoke with her in Japanese the whole time-- good practice for me & I got lovely nails~ Definitely check out this salon! I will be going back whenever I am in the area again. read more

So before I begin this review, I have to say that I am honestly not a girly girl. I really don't ever get my nails done. But, I had this fantastic idea in my head for my last sorority formals - a purple glitter gradient. I was trying to figure out how it was possible and I remember my best friend got "crazy nails" aka Japanese Nail Art done in high school. So, Yelp to the rescue! I called Rumi on Friday morning when I had formals on Saturday (yes, it was a really last minute idea that I HAD to follow through with). I am SO grateful that she was so flexible and was able to fit me in at 5 after I got off work. The place itself is adorable! It's so pink and floral almost like a girly getaway. Rumi was very friendly and helpful since this was the first time getting Japanese nail art. I was expecting it to be pricey from reviews. So, I paid $100 including tip for the glitter gradient and 2 cherry blossoms. But honestly the quality is AMAZING. Nails obviously grow out but I had them for 2 weeks+ AND they went with me through Coachella and they still look perfect. Enough said! If ever I have a crazy nail idea to be carried out, this will be my go-to nail salon! read more

I love going here! I've tried other Japanese nail studios and other places just are not as attentive to detail, creative, or friendly. It's a perfect mix here! I usually bring pictures of designs I found online and Chihiro does such a great job matching them. Rumi also does a really wonderful job as well. This is a really small, 2 person staff studio and they work by appointment only but they have all the colors and embellishments that you'll need. Japanese nail art can really add up monetarily but I usually keep my designs for at least 3 weeks and then get a fill. I love looking at my nails and I get so many positive compliments. read more

Loved it!! My nails look brand new and my cuticles look amazing. I will definitely go back :-)

Wow, this was my second experience at Hime nail and I just had to make a Yelp account and write a review. Hime Nail has two nail technicians and it's ONLY by appointment! They are usually booked one or two weeks, so plan accordingly. My BIGGEST recommendation is to book an appointment with knowing what you want. They will ask you questions like, how long is your nail currently ? Do you have any gel on your nails? Will you be getting designs on your nails? What kind of designs will you be getting? These questions are asked to plan your appointment accordingly so they have enough time to work on your nails. With that being said.. Their nail work is literally a masterpiece! A work of art! Hime nail is NOT A PLACE for you to just walk in to do SOLID NAIL COLORS!! I go to cheap $20 gel mani places if I want to just do my simple solid colors. Therefore, yes.. It is on the pricy end, but it's worth every penny when you come wth exactly what you want. Be specific and don't be afraid to speak up to them to tell them what you really want. I usually do my research on Pinterest and Instagram to get inspired. I screen shot of save what I want and show it to them. My nail technician, Chihiro, is so sweet and she never failed me. My nails came out exactly like the picture I showed her. She takes her time, one finger at a time.. SO please plan on being there for a decent amount of time. Plus, the nail place is small but cutely decorated. They play classical music and have a little water fountain to make your whole experience very relaxing. **update** Chihiro is unfortunately not there anymore, but the owner of the store Rumi and nail technician Kay are AMAZING! I posted more photos of my previous nails. Hope it helps! ~~ read more
