    Very clean and quiet
    Alicia C.

    I call make my appointment and always on time getting me in and out. I appreciate their dedication to detail and customer service. I definitely recommend this place,as it's clean,affordable and reliable. I get the#5 pedicure which includes a 12min. Foot massage,and paraffin wax and lavender scented foot detox. I must share this place is unisex,so bring your hubbies and significant others because they do great work. Thanks to Leslie,Katie,and Anna my dream team!

    My husband and I were in the area for a party and afterwards wanted to get a pedicure. (Well I wanted to and he was driving ) We drove by this nail salon and decided to give it a try. It was a Sunday afternoon and luckily there was no wait. The salon looks fairly clean and they have massage chairs for the pedicures. Two must haves for me! They have a sign posted on the wall with prices, which is helpful for baseline decisions. But when you sit down they give you a menu for the different packages. A basic pedicure is $25, but if you want a callous removal it's $36. They do the upsell you often while you are seated, after you've chosen your package. Which I don't love, but I get why they ask. We were in and out in about 35-40 min. It was a nice time. Relaxing to a certain extent. And the staff is really nice. If you pay via Zelle you don't have to pay the $1 credit card fee.

    My go-to spot for gel-x! They're always super nice when I go! And my nails are always looking really pretty when they're done! Don't miss out on the pedicures! I've just been broke as a joke, but I do love my pedicures here when I can get them! I have had lovely experiences with everyone! Thomas does take extra care when I do my gel-x nails! Overall for the price and the service, this place is a cute spot for sure!

    I had an amazing experience at rainbow nails. The staff are attentive and they take good care of me. The shop is cleaned and organized. I love the designs. I get pink cat eye with red bows and pink polka dots. I also have pink pedicure. They offer $60 for gel mani pedi. If you add designs and cat eye like me then there are extra charges. Otherwise just stick with one color gel mani and pedi for $60. Their promo will end at the end of Feb 2026 so stop by before then. Stop by for an amazing and relaxing experience.

    Stumbled across this hidden gem when I was in the area. I just needed a simple and clean pedicure. Their pricing is great in this economy. It's hard to find spots where it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I love that they also do gel combos. I decided to treat myself to a Volcano Luxury Pedi which includes sea salt soak, classic pedicure, callus treatment, sugar scrub exfoliation, mud mask, hot stone massage with candle oil service, and paraffin. I decided to upgrade to gel for only $10. It was a very relaxing experience especially with the candle experience. The staff was super sweet and friendly. Would definitely come back!

    Anna is simply the best! Takes her time, and makes sure it's perfect before leaving! Highly recommend this place!!

    Been going here since pre-covid and I'll probably go here forever! So I come here pretty regularly, approximately every 3 weeks. I usually make an appt but sometimes have been a walk in. Nobody knows my sensitive hands better than Rainbow Nails! Or how I like to get my old nails soaked off and then cut them down myself. Or that I like my almond shape pointy-er because mine go blunt pretty quickly. I love glitter, I love the magnetic cat eye, and sometimes I like a little bit of chrome. And they kill it everytime! I dont have any photos but in June of 2024 I got a different color on each nail and it took a while but they did so great! My nails are sensitive bc I tend to self-remove them sometimes, and my hands/skin is also sensitive (eczema unfortunately) but they are really good at being careful, and reading me if I'm getting uneasy. I dont like a ton of cuticle work done (I have a drill at home so I like to do it myself) and its never been an issue. Tons of colors to pick from. They have gel and regular polish. Acrylics, dip, and gel-x available, and I believe builder gel but I'm not even sure what that is. I dont get pedicures (I'm always in flip flops so a pedicure wont last on me), but the pedi-chairs are always bumpin so I'm sure the pedicures are bomb too. It's not a fancy boujiee place, like youre not getting complimentary champagne. But they do a great job and the pricing is so good. - Walk ins okay but highly recommend calling and making an appointment l. - Zelle, card, or cash. They have a stamp card where if you pay cash you will earn a discount on a future visit.

    I got a gel manicure with a design here at Rainbow Nail in Buena Park, and it was amazing! The total was $70, and it was totally worth it. The most impressive part was how kind and sweet the nail artists and the owner were. When I showed them the design I wanted, they gave me helpful feedback and made sure I loved it every step of the way. I really appreciated how attentive and caring they were throughout the whole session! Super chill and sweet vibe! I'll definitely be coming back. Thank you so much, Rainbow Nail! If you're looking for a good and kind nail salon in the Buena Park area, I highly recommend visiting here!

    I have never had a better pedicure experience than the one I just received at Rainbow Nails, everything was perfect! The lemon scrub has my skin and feet feeling baby soft, the massage was the perfect pressure and for a lengthy amount of time, and they paid extra attention to detail when painting my toes. I could have fallen asleep during the pedicure I was so happy and relaxed. Everyone who worked there was sweet and genuine, especially the owner! She and I had great conversation and she made sure I was happy through every step. Prices are unbeatable for this level of service! It's located across from the downtown Buena Park mall, and just down the street from knotted berry farm. I will definitely be back to support this wonderful woman owned business!

    Tina T.

    Love my nails here! They really did a great job making my nails look so good! I was so happy with my results. There's so many different colors to choose from and the staff are all so friendly. The prices here are very reasonable as well. I'll definitely be coming back. Love the vibes here.

    I loved itttsoooo pretty and best service I loved the nails tooooooooooooo loved the experience

    This spot just opened. They have affordable price for mani and pedi. Since it just open this month, they also offer 15% discount for this month. They sterilize their instruments and the nail filers are single use, and you can take them home. The staff is nice. Overall, it was a great experience. They also have a lot of colors to chose from as well as nail designs. My toes definitely appreciated this! It was so relaxing. I took my mom here as well and she loved it! Come treat yourself and your mom for Mother's Day!

    UPDATE!!! The owner called my mobile number and checked on me. I appreciate their customer support…read more I've been to Luxe Nail Salon before and generally like the salon, but unfortunately, my experience with Megan this time was just average. During my gel pedicure, the massage felt very repetitive, as she kept massaging the same area of my feet, as if rubbing it raw. She also repeatedly looked at the timer and her watch and was yawning throughout the service, which made me feel like she was tired and ready to finish. At one point, another client was talking loudly on her phone. Megan seemed annoyed by it and tried to engage me in the annoyance, but I chose to just brush it off and enjoy my service. My manicure with clear polish also felt rushed. Unfortunately, the gel polish on my right pinky toe has already come off, and I don't have the time to go back to have it fixed. Despite the experience, I still left a good tip because I appreciate the effort and wanted to be fair. I do like Luxe Nail Salon and would consider returning, but I hope the quality and attention to detail are more consistent. Perhaps Megan just needed a little more sleep or maybe she does a better job when she has more time to chat/gossip and connect with her clients.

    The owner is insanely rude. Not on just one instance, but every time I have been there. I've…read morewatched her treat her employees very poorly. I stopped coming here for a few months because of how behind they run and they constantly call me to ask me to come later than my appointment and still make me wait. I decided to come back because I missed my pedicures with Rosa, who is the best and amazing at her job. At 9:42AM, the owner calls me asking to come at 5:30 instead of 5, so I said ok. I show up at 5:30 and she told me it's gonna be another 15 minutes or so, which already was annoying. She came up to me again after to tell me Rosa is running behind so I told her that I feel their system is overbooking her techs because this happens every single time, and she disagreed and said Rosa is slow and its her fault and that she sucks. I told her she should not be talking about her employees like that because its extremely disrespectful & unprofessional because Rosa makes her money. She responded "Rosa doesn't make me money, she's too slow". I could not believe how rude she was being. Without her techs, she would have no business. She is always rushing everyone, and you can read multiple reviews how various people felt their services were rushed. She's just greedy & money hungry. Most of the time I come in, someone's getting into it with the owner. She takes zero accountability. She also got upset and was yelling in the middle of the salon about me, which if you ask me is quite unprofessional. She was yelling at Rosa the whole time, and Rosa approached me to apologize, but I let her know its not her fault at all and how amazing she is. The owner then stormed by yelling at Rosa to tell her "tell her its your fault not mine". She also kept screaming in the salon how they close at 6, and I'm lucky, but SHE called me to move my appointment to later. She also told me I couldn't make appointments there anymore, but that doesn't offend me, I don't want my money going to her pockets. I already stopped going there for a long time because of how she runs her salon. I highly encourage not coming here, but if you do, go to Rosa and let the owner know how amazing she does at her job.

Nia was fantastic. She took so much care and effort in her attention to detail was incredible. It was very easy to make an appointment online through their website where you could see which nail tech are available being that this was my first time here I just picked any and ended up getting Nia. The salon itself was very peaceful with very calming music with the front desk worker offering everyone something to drink. The color selection was very good and a lot better than most salons in the area which tend to have the same colors. These were different from anything I've ever seen. I asked Nia for a short almond shape and just a regular color and it looks like exactly what I wanted without even specifying. I told her I have to type at work and without hesitation or pressure to get them a little longer she did exactly what I wanted. She took time with my cuticles and gave me lotion at the end and to top it off. I got a free cuticle oil from the front desk person. I will be coming back and booking with Nia.
