Bailey G.

I have lived walking distance from this nail salon for 2 1/2 years and have never been before today. I have gone to a lot of the very popular over priced places in Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach. I went here only because I didn't have a lot of time. I noticed they had good reviews. I was a little nervous because it looked like there were a lot of very bright, colorful acrylic type things going on in the pictures and I just wanted a simple natural gel manicure. Long story short they did an amazing job. They gave me exactly what I wanted. I didn't have to wait prices were fantastic. I will absolutely be coming here from now on .Highly recommend.

I happened to be in the area and saw Serene Nails. I looked at the YELP reviews and they were great, so I went in. May did my nails and they look amazing! Ly was helpful with the payment. Highly recommend for great service, friendly environment, and value.

Brittany C.

LOVED MY NAILS! I went in to get a fill and Ly was kind, detailed, and listened to my needs. There was no hidden fees at the end. They were so reasonably priced and I left so happy. Grateful for this business establishment! 10/10 recommend

I really like this nail salon. It's been redone since the Covid lock down. The place has a new owner and o like how friendly everyone is. Lee is very talented with painting what you want on your nails. I show her what I would like, and then she does it by hand. I always pick at my nails and the never last me longer than two or three weeks. I've had these on for three months now. This is the longest I've had acrylics. I love the selection of colors and products. My feet always look nice and my hands do too. They take walk ins, but calling ahead of time is helpful.

I always try to be nice and fair with my reviews. Including tip, I paid $91 for this. You see the work. Not much to be said. The ladies were very nice. It's just the acrylics were not great at all. Bubbles, debris is the nails, 4 were crooked. I only went back because my friend encouraged me to. The tech tried to fix two nails but it was still kind of lumpy. ::sigh:: Pros: Nice ladies, not crowded, massage chairs Cons: You see it.

I was in the area and needed to get my nails done quickly, I found this store on Yelp and decided to try it out since it had a good review. The COVID protocol made me feel safe and at ease. Before being seated they took my temperature and don't forget your mask. The store is very clean, there is hand sanitizer everywhere if you need it. I got my nails done by Ly she did an amazing job, I am a hair stylist and my hands are in water everyday. It has been two weeks my nails still look beautiful and they haven't lifted. Hanna did my pedicure I love the shape of my toes nails. Thank you so much I will definitely be back. I highly recommend this store.

I'm so angry If I could give this place 0 stars look this shit

Right and left.... this is ridiculous between 2 people did this one did it with wax and the other did it with tweezers and the whole time she kept complaining that she was old and that her back hurt. 2/8/22 I have to put one star because that's the lowest it goes they don't deserve Half a star

Seriously loved this place! Hannah did a beautiful job, all the girls are so sweet, and better prices/deals for this area!! (plus its a clean and cute environment) They do a stamp card & a gel manicure was only $20! 100% will be back!

Serene nail spa made me feel like I was a queen

Serene nail spa was just what I needed I came in feeling a little bit of stress and like my toenails needed to be cleaned up my shoulders had a lot of weight on them my face was feeling worn out. I left serene spa feeling like a new woman stress-free, beautiful nails and my face looks 10 years younger!

Toes pedicre basic $20 Hands full set $31 (she painted the white tip)

Stephanie N.

Overall my mom and I have a reservation for 3:45pm and they were quick to take us on time . We had our eye brows done , pedicures, and 2 full sets for $116. The location is good, the price is fantastic, and the quality of service was amazing I'll be coming back with my mom !

Zero starts. Apparently one of the ladies thinks it's OK to remove your nail tips by shaving them off unfortunately she took off the real fingernail.. The gel nails lasted less than 48 hours and now my daughter has several fingers with paper thin and painful nails. Stay away !!

Michele S.

Great spa totally awesome and staff are very nice and friendly I would definitely come back again it is also so cheap so if you want a great manicure or pedicure than this is the place!!!! (Pictures are my 10 year old daughters toes and fingers)

I came to get my brow tint and wax with Jenny and it's inside Serene. Next time I have to get my nails done. I'm not from this area. I looked up Jenny and it happened to be in the same location. The reason why I'm writing a review is because my experience was great. While I was getting my brows tinted, the owner's little girl was very friendly and made friends with my 7 year old daughter. She was younger than my daughter and I saw them talking. She even shared her snack with Jaelyn. I thought that's super cute. When a person raise their kids right, I'm all for that. This little girl is a boss in the making. Next time we come back to visit my husbands family, we'll stop here again. :) read more

This place discriminates against MEN ! I went in just to ask for a clean up on my eyebrows and I was told they don't service men because our eyebrow shape is different . Like WTH ! I've never heard of that before in my life . I just needed to get them waxed nothing crazy just wanted them to be cleaned up . Not anything thin just natural but hey I guess men have different eyebrows in their eyes ! read more

So this my 2nd time visiting Hanna, was not disappointed at all. She takes her time and pays attention to detail. She does a great job on both the gel mani and spa pedi. She takes good care of callus removal, and does really well with ingrown toenails. This small, cute, clean nail spa has my business. Prices are just right but the difference you get quality service. I've attached pics of their prices. Try this place out, ask for Hannah, you won't be disappointed. read more

Their Covid safety protocols were not being followed both times I went to get my nails done. once in December while cases were surging and again this week. While getting a pedicure the owner had her mask down for over at least 30 minutes while she went and talked to different people in the salon. Also two patrons walked in and did not have a mask on and were talking to other people in the salon and to the owner and no one said anything to them. Another lady getting a pedicure & manicure also had her mask pulled below her nose and mouth the entire time and no staff nor the owner said anything. It was very hard to enjoy my pedi while the owner and few patrons were not caring they were possibly exposing the other staff members and patrons to Covid. The owner needs to protect her staff and patrons. I really wanted to come back but will not anymore. Don't come if you're are worried about getting Covid. Hoping this post will have them follow safety protocols and save others from exposure. read more

BOOK WITH TERESA!…read more Super new to waxing and was extremely nervous and hesitant. I wasn't even planning to book an appointment, but I get my lashes done next-door.. I was walking by and Teresa happened to be outside and I had a few minutes to kill so I decided to ask her a couple questions that I was curious about. Instantly, I could tell she was extremely knowledgeable and very professional and kind! I felt extremely comfortable and ended up booking an appointment for the same day. Crazy!

I highly highly recommend her and checking out this salon if you are new to waxing or looking for someone that can literally make you feel at ease. Cleanliness was top-notch! The space is very welcoming and kept at a super cool temperature. Just wow. Simply, thank you Teresa. See you in 4 weeks!

Plenty of parking in that shopping center. Customer service: Excellent. Front desk: I started making my appointment online and I stopped. After a while a got a text asking if they could help me. From there, until I got to the salon, Presley was so nice, helpful, and made everything in her power to make sure I had the best experience. Esthetician: The service I requested was waxing. Jenna was so nice, very professional, has an entertaining and pleasant conversation, her vibe makes you feel comfortable. Price: Fair. They have specials, promotions, and memberships available too. I highly recommend this salon, especially for the customer service.

Missed some spots on the sides but since I paid a discounted rate with the Groupon I couldn't complain much. Made me schedule my next appt before I left. When I got the reminder text I clicked the link to cancel the appt but it automatically confirmed the appt when I clicked the link. I messaged the business through the booking site since I didn't have their contact info. The girl called me and left a voicemail asking if I was still coming (I was sick and busy with my kids which is why I couldn't come) but didn't mention a no show fee. I texted her number letting her know i messaged through the booking site. No response. A few days later I got charged $25 as a no show fee. Not super impressed with the communication interface and the lack of transparency. I'll take responsibility for agreeing to scheduling the next appointment, but I won't be returning.

We sat and got served a complimentary drink. Then it sort of all went down hill. I was so excited to finally do a legit almond shape because I had my natural nails long enough. Well the tech didn't make it pointed and didn't check to ensure both hands were the same. In the photo, you can easily see difference in the lengths and the lack of a single point! This was after she tried to fix it after botching it initially. That's why they're so short. Then I got a new technical and she saw how off they were and "fixed" it. She didn't re-compare the nails and when it was all said and done...you can see they are still not similar in length. Also? The paint job was done poorly! There are bubbles and bumps in several nails. I went back in and showed the woman at the front desk and we scheduled to fix this come Monday as I'm heading out of town. This was gel! Overall - $55, $25 simple mani + $15 gel + $15 chrome effect Moving onto my pedicure, that technical was so rough. When she was pushing my cuticles back, she was doing too much. I flinched a few times but that didn't course correct. She didn't ask how I wanted my toes. I finally told her before the polish went on that I wanted them rounder. I got the signature pedicure, which was $50. It included a callus scrub. She scrubbed my feet pretty hard that I sustained a cut. So the only silver lining is they're willing to fix it. I would NOT come back after this trip.

I've been coming here for 6 years now, since the pandemic, and I've always praised this place for…read moretheir pedicure service. However, after my recent experience, I will no longer be returning. Making the appointment was easy, and we were seated within minutes, which I appreciated. When asked what package we wanted, I requested the deluxe pedicure for myself and my sister, and the basic pedicure for my daughter. The total came out to about $150. My issue is with the quality and time spent on the services. For a deluxe pedicure, which costs $45+, I expect the full service and attention that comes with that price. In the past, the deluxe service usually lasted 45+ minutes, while the basic service was around 30 minutes. My sister and I both received the deluxe service, yet she was completely done within 25-30 minutes. It felt rushed, with corners being cut by trying to do multiple things at once. Unfortunately, the callus remover was not done properly for either of us, which was very disappointing. After years of loyal business, I expected better quality and consistency.

I really don't like leaving negative reviews, but I feel like I have to share my experience. I came…read morein for a gel set and immediately noticed some of the nails looked bubbly after curing. The nail tech kept telling me to cure the gel over and over, which felt unusual. After applying the top coat, she started filing the edges, and gel polish actually began seeping out from the sides. When I asked if that was normal, she insisted that it was. They offered me a discount, so I paid $30 for the set. However, when I got to work -- literally 10 minutes later -- and started typing, gel polish began oozing out of my nails. The gel started chipping almost instantly. For anyone who doesn't know, uncured gel polish can lead to contact dermatitis, which is dangerous and not something to take lightly. Out of concern, I went back to the salon at 6 PM. When I walked in, the owner (I assume) was extremely dismissive. I asked her to please look at my nails because the polish was all over my hands. She refused to get up because she was with a client. When I asked if someone could just remove the polish, she said, "I am not going to stop halfway with my client who has an appointment. Can you wait 30 minutes?" I ended up waiting 45 minutes. When I was finally taken back, the owner removed the polish using a drill bit, cutting me multiple times and burning my nails by holding the drill in one spot for too long. Overall, it was an unsafe and stressful experience. Save yourself the headache -- and the potential health issues.

There is an entire wall of well-organized polish colors to choose from. Offered water, tea, or bubbles once settled in ... can't beat that! Received a wonderful pedi with plenty of shaping, massage, and perfect polish. Next, needing a change from lifelong acrylics - the owner educated me about Gel-x and helped me make the informed decision to try it out .. I am so glad I did as they are very light and feels extremely natural. The application is less invasive and the end-product looks great. I also appreciated using the soak-off method to remove existing nails rather than ripping / tearing it off (ouch!). Highly recommend this salon!

The owners are genuinely kind, always welcoming, and they somehow manage to squeeze me in even when I walk in last minute, which I really appreciate. Pedicures are consistently good, chairs are comfortable, and the overall vibe is relaxed. It's not overly flashy, but it's dependable which honestly matters more when you're a regular. I'm giving 4 stars because while the service is solid and the people are great, there are small moments where the experience could feel a bit more polished. That said, for convenience, friendliness, and consistency, this place has earned my loyalty.
