Cute little nail spot! I typically get gel manicures when I get my nails done, but opted for a regular manicure at this spot. Unfortunately, my manicure only really lasted about 4 days before severely chipping (but I guess that's what you get with non-gel) but my pedicure has been PERFECT for 3 weeks now. Not a single chip on any of my nails. And I've been wearing mostly close-toed shoes. Probably won't get a manicure there again unless it's gel, but I will 100% be back for a pedicure! As far as the services, everyone was very friendly and the manicure and pedicure were both fantastic! Very relaxing, clean nail salon! read more

Two thumbs up!! read more

To update my last post the owner messaged me and said that it was my fault for them filing my nails too low because I cut them too short but they were cut to a pretty normal if not slightly long length. She also made it sound like because I didn't have to pay for my pedicure I shouldn't have written a poor review. Overall it was a very unprofessional experience and I personally will never be returning. read more

I came here for my first mani pedi after moving to the area from Napa, and I was not disappointed! The manicure was perfection and my pedicure was so nice! It's quite a bit more expensive than I am used to paying but I got the 85$ mani pedi treatment, and the girls who did it were the sweetest, and so accommodating! Best customer service at a nail salon that I have ever received!! The salon is clean and calm, I don't have a single complaint! read more

I went and got my nails done last week at Paradise Nails. I have never been so disappointed. I had to ask them to fix it multiple times & they were going to charge me $70 for them and I was soo shocked. I spoke to a manager there and told her I was very upset and have been here way too long and don't have time to get them fixed, after asking them to fix them multiple times. When I asked them to fix them, they rolled their eyes and were very rude. Glue was showing through my nails & turned white around my nail beds. Terrible. I was going on a trip a few day later. They ended up charging me less than they told me but still made me pay more than I should have. Ridiculous. My left hand was also darker pink than my right. I also told the lady that I could see the glue through my nail & then she just ripped off mg nail, which hurt sooo bad. DO NOT GO HERE!!! read more

I'm puzzled how this spot can be so busy for the quality of work that's provided. Worst customer service, quality and service I've ever received. Almost to the point of being laughable. The manager seems to be the only person who speaks English or responds when being spoken too. She literally had to show the 2 employees how to dab sparkle on a top coat. I mean it's not rocket science guys. I actually bled and had pain walking after lol like wtf happened lol The managers husband came in and literally 2 employees came over to me while the 2 people were working on me and huddled facing me and their backs to the manager and talked shit about her and the husband. Like wtf. So awkward. I'll be sure to not recommend or visit again. Not to mention I got my nails done on Friday and it's only Monday! I need my nails done already !!!!!! I noticed when I left they didn't even meet the paint anywhere near the cuticle or the edges of nail lol. The only good thing was the rocks but they were too hot to even enjoy Could only enjoy this if maybe I was drunk and not aware lol Holy train wreck of a business. read more

The nail technician who did my nails was VERY rough when filings my nails. I told her twice to please be more gentle but she ignored what I said. My fingers were red and still hurt from that. I'm addition, I got a nail dip and chose a light blue color for my nails but for some strange reason my nails are NOT light blue at all, they are yellow. I asked the lady why there were yellow and all she said was "I'm not finished yet". They made a problem out of me biting my nails, and I didn't appreciate that because of my impulsive disorder. In fact, if I'm getting my nails done is FOR A REASON. They definitely made feel insecure and their customer service was poor. I ended up paying 80 dollars for this service and I come home to realize the my nails on my left hand are longer than my right hand (although she had told me she fixed the length). I am very disappointed. read more

Worst manicure ever. Let me say that I went to see Mimi with a 4 week gel manicure done during my trip in Italy back in July, that still looked perfect beside one thing: my nails were too long. So I went there for the first time, showed my nails to Mimi, and told her to make sure that the gel lasted more than 2 weeks since I don't have that much time to waist on my nails. When she started filing down my nails, I immediately realized I was in the wrong chair. She kept looking up to see who was coming in and out, paying little attention to what she was filing and leaving me wonder if I would get my skin filed as well. She applied few coats of the base and just one of the color causing the tip of my nails to show the base, and not the actual color. Worse than anything, before applying the one coat of color, she did a manicure. I have never seen anybody do a manicure after the gel. It's usually the other way around. The purpose should be to remove the cuticles, so the gel sits on the nail and not on the skin, and it won't lift. Anyway, she never pushed my cuticles back, she just cut the surface causing them to peel a couple of days later. One of my nail peeled right away and I had to have it fix it the next day. I payed $55 plus tip for the lousiest job ever. A week later I am in need of a new manicure. read more

I was looking for a new nail spot but I'm so disappointed. I've been waiting 30 minutes and I have an appointment. After waiting I even told the front desk lady I would go with anyone but she still ignored me. 30 minutes! Does our time not matter? Still waiting... still nothing. This Review IS 100% for the front desk who is by the way busy getting her nails done. She is getting her nails done before me. Sorry to the person who actually did my nails and did a good job. read more

This wasn't my first time going here and it's pretty hit or miss. I called ahead to make an appointment and they sat me right away. I got the regular pedicure which I always do for $35. The person doing it was pleasant enough however she didn't even take out any tools. No base or topcoat was applied. Twenty minutes later and shortest pedicure of my life, she asked if I could go sit in one of their manicure chairs while she accommodated another client to take my chair. The pedicure and experience were bad and embarrassing. The chair she moved me to was very uncomfortable so I put on my shoes, paid (no tip) and left. I will not be going back there; too many other options here. read more

I was a guest at the Ritz Carlton and they couldn't accommodate my 2 girls and I for a mother daughter day- that was the 1 yr anniversary of their fathers passing - hence - I found this place, since only the girls were taken. Don't get me wrong - Susan and Nancy are great- but this place- IS putting on the ritz!!! Truly the BEST mani pedi EVER-- and I'm a world traveler. They rolled out the red carpet. They are all very polite and happy - this comes through in their work as well. I had the works done. I look and feel incredible. It was probably better than my kids services, so I'm feeling bad they didn't get to experience. Very clean, and just incredibly professional. This is THE BEST for nails and other services they offer. Thank you!!!!! read more

I have been coming to this salon for almost a year and the only regret is not having found this place sooner. I had to leave my previous nail salons due sanitary reasons (my friends got fungus) and I didnt want to risk my chances. When in search for a new place, paradise nails was the only place that 1. autoclave their tools ( working in the medical field I can really appreciate autoclaving) 2. manicurist used a new nail filer each time this place is clean, relaxing, accommodating and rite next to a starbucks! okay, now let's talk manicurist! Mimi is one talented stylist that I have worked with. I am going to admit I am a perfectionist, sometimes to a fault , the reason for saying this is because Mimi provides and has never disappointed, her work is darn near perfect. First time going to her I wanted ombre white tips but didnt want it with acrylic, all previous manicurist always told me the only way to do ombre styling is with acrylic. But Mimi did ombre with dip powder and my golly what a difference between dip powder and acrylic! natrual and not so bulky looking. And the best part of doing dip powder I have yet to have a broken nail and my nails are the longest and strongest they have ever ever been . I havent had to use tips since going to Mimi. She applies dip powder so perfectly, and applies more powder in just the rite areas giving the finishing look natural and making my nails sturdy and strong. Mimi's is the best! read more

While the ladies here are very nice - it was a little frustrating when you book an appt for two and they confirm then when you come back they are just winging it. We were really early for our appt so they said come back no problem - a cute shop down the way. We came back 10 min early and watched people being seated before us and people came in after us. They put us in the non comfy chairs and said they'll move us in awhile. So the moral of the story - don't bother with the appt. also my mani is really easy. I like my nails super short (learning to play guitar)and just buffed. Takes them 1/2 the time and no polish. They said that will be $5 extra. Really? Is $5 a big deal? No just the principle. Cuticles not that great either. read more

I'm updating my review from about a year ago. I just don't understand the negative comments. Why? Because I must be one of the pickiest people when it comes to salons. I have tried so many from Fountain Valley, Orange, Mission Viejo and South Orange County for SNS. For me it doesn't chip, peel, or lift. I have posted today's SNS Dip #AC24. Done by Tina. My pedi is normal gel and while everyone who has done my pedi and they are ALL great, my team in Tina for SNS, Linda for pedi, Mimi for waxing and eyelashes. But several people do good SNS - Christine, Stacey, Mimi and maybe more. All have done my SNS and all were good To me this is THE BEST place for SNS dipping powder mani. And pedicures are fabulous and hygiene standards are high. Recommend 100% read more

I came here for my first gel set! Christine was amazing ! She took extra special care of me. She removed my acrylics (without charge) and then gave me a great first gel set (OPI) definitely coming again in a couple of weeks! NOTE: a lady came in with her two barking dogs (small) and let them sit there by the door for 20 min while they were barking. I wish the someone on staff would have made her take her dogs somewhere else. As you can imagine, the relaxation component of this experience ended when this happened:/ read more

Nails nails nails ! Its a necessity! Even though it was late, on a Monday 6:45 closing @7:00 ...

We, my daughter & her bff were treated like Royalty. They actually took the time to change color nail choices & took their time to do a great job. So! The location... beautiful. So clean. Lighting chairs music on pointe. Not one moment of awkward 'chit chat ' that is so unfair sometimes because we do not speak Vietnamese, not to profile but that is a common language.

They are so over priced. They did a terrible sloppy job on my dip manicure. Over charged me and didn't even finish my manicure. Through some oil on my nails and so ok your all done.

They also charged me $12 to pain my daughters nails??!! Horrible. So disappointed read more
