    Actual flip flops over the paper thin ones most places give.
    Mindy B.

    If I could give more stars I would. Kim and her assistant went above and beyond. Not only is today a Friday but they were able to accommodate the last minute appointment. I had a full with gel as well as a pedicure. The over all experience was relaxing and quite. I forgot appropriate sandals which they gave me a pair of actual fill flops and placed my heels in a bag for me. I am 100% about that tiny detail and the effort that went into making my experience that much better. I would recommend Kim Ma Nails to anyone and everyone!

    My nails are beautiful! Kim did an amazing job, she is so pleasant and professional. I have been to bigger nail salons in the area that are part of a chain and did not like the service I received so I thought I would try Kim. I am so glad I did, I will be back! I had gel removal and more put on for only $25!!

    I had such a great experience at Pandora Nail Bar!…read more I came in last minute just before 6pm, knowing they closed at 7 and honestly thought I'd only have time to get my acrylics removed. When I called, they told me to come in anyway, which I really appreciated. Once I got there, everyone was so kind and accommodating. I asked about getting a fill and changing my nail shape from coffin to something new and they immediately said they could do it. They were so patient with me and even didn't charge extra for the shape change since it was my first time there, which meant a lot. They stayed open past closing to finish my nails and I didn't feel rushed at all. Via did an amazing job and I absolutely love how my nails turned out! Overall, such a great experience. I'm really grateful for their kindness, flexibility and attention to detail. I'll definitely be coming back!

Instead of helping resolve the issue professionally, I felt harassed during the interaction and was even threatened with the police. I ended up paying cash just to avoid further problems. The customer service and overall business practices were unacceptable. I will not be returning and would not recommend this place based on how this situation was handled.

Taylor was incredibly patient, gentle, and engaging with my daughter the entire appointment. She took the time to explain each step in a fun way, asked about her favorite colors, and made sure she was comfortable--no rushing, no discomfort. The salon itself is clean, bright, and welcoming, with a nice vibe that didn't feel overwhelming. Taylor did a beautiful job on the nails--perfect shape, smooth application, and cute designs that my daughter is still showing off days later. They held up really well too! If you're looking for a nail tech who's great with kids (or just someone skilled and kind in general), Taylor at Cosmo Nail Salon is the one to book. We'll definitely be back--thank you, Taylor, for making it such a special outing for my girl!

My nail design was quoted at an additional $60 dollars so I simplified to the same design did the same thing on 6 nails. The pricing is expensive but I was expecting it to be good. The design was to look like a shell but the 3D lines clear lines ran together and the nail tech cured it and was happy with the way it looks... I'm not sure I paid an additional $30 for a really poorly executed design. I'm overall just super unhappy with the look and my experience. I was pressured into up charges for colors and designs which I finally spoke up for myself and changed but I'm super unhappy with what was to be celebration nails.. they just do not look good- and now I'm fixing my own feet which was the whole reason I went for a pedicure.

    Pro Nails is by far my favorite nail salon in OC!!! I've lived in quite a few different areas…read moremeaning I've been to many salons. Since moving to Costa Mesa, my boyfriend actually found this place for us both to go for a mani/pedi! I've been back myself multiple times because their staff is amazing, and the quality of their services is unmatched. Today- Henry did the BEST set I have EVER had! I was nervous at first because the set I picked was pretty complicated, but he didn't even hesitate to tell me he could do it and helped me pick out all the colors. He worked so quickly and seamlessly. I'm still in shock at how much I love them and how AMAZING his skill set is!!! I'm going to Coachella this weekend and Henry gave me the set of my DREAMS! Highly highly recommend this salon over others in the area! Henry- I will be back and THANK YOU so much! You are so talented

My gel manis and pedis last for a good month (I work an admin/office job). Now, there are customers who are rude. The other day I was there and this customer told one of the techs that she didn't understand her english. She left complaining for a service that was costing $15 (of course, she was wearing a LV bag). So when you read bad reviews for these hard working ladies take the bad reviews with a grain of salt or go somewhere else.

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.
