    I've visited this place a couple of times and usually had a good experience, the service has generally been great. However, this recent visit was disappointing. Some of my nails were curved and not painted properly, and unfortunately, two have already broken--and it's barely going to be two weeks this Wednesday I did mention to the nail tech that my nails were curved, but they weren't able to fix it, and by then I was already over the time spent. That said, I do want to thank the technician who worked on my daughter's nails for her promotion she did a great job, I hope this review is taken as constructive feedback, but consistency is key, and I hope improvements are made to avoid losing loyal customers

    Mia at Sparkling Nails did her thang as she did not disappoint as usual! She did this completely free hand!

    I  short beautiful dip nails!

    Typically on my day off I'm trail running, hiking or climbing... but with wet trails from unexpected rain, I thought I'd focus on self care with a little pampering... I've been to many, many nail salons throughout Orange County and even out of state... I have to honestly say that Sparkling Nails is hands down the BEST salon I've ever been to. It's the people and the consistent quality service. It doesn't hurt that it sits right next to DK Donuts so if you have a hankering for iced coconut coffee, you're all set. I'd recommend calling to make an appt (typically they can accommodate same day). Highly recommend the spa pedicure with the 10 min leg/foot massage (my favorite part). Recommend the dip for manicure. Lasts longer and looks great. It's tough enough even if I'm crack climbing at the gym.

    Best nail salon in Orange! Great prices and Donna did my dip set for my nails. She helped me choose the most natural color since I'm in school and stopped getting acrylic nails. She recommended the dip powder which help strengthen my nails and to top it off she ended my manicure with a full arm massage! The best! Truly recommend and I'll be back for my next manicure set!

    This is after almost three weeks!!

    I went almost three weeks ago with my mom for mani pedis. I ended up getting the nail dip. Donna did it and she is amazing! She did such a great job! My nails are still intact and perfect!! I ended up with a French and it's so pretty! Kimmy did my toes and also look great! My mom had a regular mani pedi and was so happy. I highly recommend this salon. Everyone is so friendly and they do great work! I'm now a loyal customer! Thank you!!! Photo of my nails is after almost three weeks!!

    SNS Dip Powder

    My go-to nail place ! I've been here so many times and I have yet to be disappointed. I've also been helped by different nail techs here and they've all done my nails fantastically. If you come here, just do yourself a favor and get an SNS manicure! It's what they're known for AND it's such a reasonable price at $30. My nails always come out looking beautifully. The service here is amazing. You're greeted right when you walk in and they even ask you if you want any water! I always have great conversations with all the employees whenever I get my nails done. They are also very nice when it comes to addressing any concerns you have or any changes you want made. Also, they get so crowded with customers sometimes, but they always make sure to execute their jobs correctly and also serve everyone in a timely manner. I definitely recommend making an appointment, as they tend to be very busy. An appointment is a definite MUST for weekends (especially Friday and Saturday).

    Ask for their new designs and rhinestones! Just simply perfect, and Hawaii-bound!
    Maria C.

    Call ahead for appointments and be patient but these nails will always turn out amazing with anyone at Sparkling Nails! I've gotten my nails done here for my wedding, for vacations to Hawaii, and of course for the holiday season. The kindest staff and great ambiance with always something to watch on TV or listen on the radio. Very clean salon, thank you Donna and cheers to a new year, this place works so hard even with less help given everything that's happened.

    See the simple but cute nail design!
    Hellen T.

    Came here with my girls as a cute manicure girls date. Had no exception when I came but walked out with extremely satisfied experience. I got SNS nail which I think is dip powder one. The staff is super nice and patient. They won't show any impatient even if the style you want might take a while. At first I just want a simple design. But I improvised to add some sticker. Without any reference picture on hand. The lady put up a simple (what I want) and cute design for me. I super love it!! The ladies there are detail oriented. They will make sure they clean your nails and make sure your design is perfect. And the best part is, they are in a really reasonable price! Will definitely come back !

    Gel nails
    Erica E.

    They ALL do a great job here! Make an appointment on anticipated busy times (note I have seen a rare few occasions where they are empty so I do just walk in). Heidi and Uyen did my gel mani and gel pedi this last time and I LOVE it!

    SNS dipping powder french tip !
    Christine T.

    I usually don't get my nails done but this place did not disappoint! I was initially going to do gel but saw all the great reviews of the sns dip powder here so decided to do a french tip sns and it came out so beautifully!! Donna is very sweet, kind, and detail-oriented. She made sure there were no rough or missed spots and I even got a nice hand massage w lotion after! After the pandemic many nail salons have suffered a decline in business and it truly saddens me to see the talent and dedication of these wonderful ladies go to waste. I highly recommend this place and support local businesses

    SNS dip powder on my own nails
    June A.

    This now location is a must stop. Extremely friendly staff amazingly clean facility. If you like SNS dipping nails they must have over 100 colors. You will never use all the combinations! They are the only location that I have been to that after you do the dipping powder manicure they actually give you a warm hand lotion massage Cost was $30 $5 for remove a. Worth every penny! They most definitely have won my business.

    I've been coming to sparkling nails for over a year and it does not disappoint! I live in the inland empire and go to school in New Jersey, but I always take the hour drive to see Donna and/or Heidi whenever I am home. They're professionalism and attention to detail is astounding! I always come in with my Pinterest nail idea and they make sure the idea comes to life! I always get the dip powder and absolutely love the work they do to transform my nails. They really take their time to make sure I love my nails in the end. Can't go wrong with Donna or Heidi!

    QUARANTINE NAIL CHECK! I'm a regular at Sparkling Nails and I cannot wait until they are open once again! My last visit was March 11th and my nails are still going strong!!!! Sandy does an amazing job. She takes her time and makes sure you are content with the shape/length. With the current situation the world is in I also think it is important to highlight the cleanliness of their salon, and they always use sterilized tools on each client. They are a busy small salon so MAKE AN APPOINTMENT & you'll be good to go. I hope to see all of these ladies soon!

    WOW! My nails look so amazing. This picture doesn't do it justice. But trust me, they truly are SPARKLING NAILS!! Thank you Donna!

    Skilled technicians, friendly staff, and great prices--honestly, that's all you really need to…read moreknow. This is an excellent nail spa. If I had to mention a couple of downsides, the first would be the parking. The parking lot is fairly small, so during busy hours you may have to park a little farther away. (I've been lucky enough to find a spot every time I've visited, though!) The second is that walk-ins can be difficult if you don't make an appointment in advance. Mondays through Wednesdays are usually fine, but once the weekend gets closer, it's hard to get in without a reservation. That's probably the only thing I wish were different. The salon itself isn't very large, but everything else more than makes up for it. The technicians are talented, everyone is welcoming, and the service is consistently excellent. One thing I really enjoy is the atmosphere. Even though we're all strangers, there's something fun about sitting side by side, chatting or relaxing, while everyone leaves feeling a little more beautiful. It always makes me happy, and it's one of the reasons I keep coming back.

    My friends and I come here a lot to get our nails done. Unfortunately this last experience here was…read morenot a good one. While the price is affordable, I will not come back due to sanitary issues & incorrect methods they use. We made appts for 12 pm and my nails were not started until 12:45 pm. My nail tech (Michelle) was very nice and she does nails well, however, she used the nail grinder tool to clean my cuticles. My cuticles HURT for hours after my nails were done and weeks after the appt, I still have cut up cuticles and scabbing from the blood (pictures attached). I wish I had known in the moment that this method is not okay; it should have been a cuticle cutter. Once I got to my car and quickly googled that I found: Grinders are made for shaping hard artificial or natural nail surfaces, not living skin. Using a high-speed rotating bit on the delicate cuticle and the nail bed can easily cause painful skin tears, deep friction burns, and severe infections. These aren't correct practices used by this salon; they are taking the easy route to get it done quickly. Would not recommend. I would give them 1 star but Yelp removes those reviews easily so that's why I'm putting 2-stars.

These aren't even square and she kept cutting the side of my toe nails and filing them back when they were too short and hurt. I've been coming. Here for a long time this is probably the worst shaping I've ever gotten here. I could have done my own shaping better than that at home. Just ridiculous *** it was around 5-7 weeks since my last pedicure so my toes were not "really short" besides the big toe that broke. I added another picture to show that she was filing into my toe nails after cutting them super short as short as she could get them and made half of them round and tiny. She also cut the sides of the nails which you aren't supposed to do due to infection and hang nails. I asked her not to do this. there was no reason for her to cut the sides of my nails on one foot and not the other leaving with me with uneven toes. I appreciate the response but I feel that there should be an attempt to fix the situation instead of making excuses or insinuating that I'm making this up.

    There aren't enough words to express how grateful I am for Michelle and her incredible team…read more Like many moms, I love getting my nails done, and my daughter has always looked up to me. She wanted to feel beautiful and feminine just like her mommy. When she was 4 years old before she was diagnosed with severe ADHD I tried taking her to several nail salons. Unfortunately, instead of patience and kindness, we were met with judgment. Because she had a hard time sitting still, people would make faces, seem frustrated, and treat her like she was a burden. As a mom, that was heartbreaking to watch, and I could see it affecting her confidence. Then I found Michelle's salon completely by chance through work, and it truly felt like a blessing from God. From the very first visit, Michelle and the entire team welcomed my daughter with open arms. They were patient, gentle, encouraging, and made the experience fun instead of stressful. They never made her feel like she was "too much." Instead, they made her feel seen, accepted, and beautiful. Today my daughter is 5 years old, has since been diagnosed with severe ADHD, and she still gets excited every time I tell her we're going to see Michelle. She feels comfortable there, confident there, and genuinely loved. As a mother, there is nothing more meaningful than seeing your child embraced for who they are. Michelle and her team don't just do beautiful nails they create a safe, welcoming space where everyone is treated with kindness and dignity. Their compassion has made a lasting impact on both my daughter and me. I will forever be a loyal customer because of the way they've treated my family. Thank you, Michelle, for reminding us that kindness is just as beautiful as the work you create.

    I can't guarantee every nail salon lives up to the hype--but Luv Nails truly does…read more I've been coming here consistently, and Michelle and her team never miss. No matter what inspo photos I bring in, they recreate my nails exactly how I envision them--every detail is on point. They work quickly without sacrificing quality, which is rare. The results are always beautiful, clean, and long-lasting. What really sets this place apart is the experience. Michelle goes out of her way to make my daughter feel welcome whenever she comes with me. She'll play with her, let her join in during my spa pedicure, and make her feel just as pampered. My daughter actually looks forward to coming with me--that says everything. And you can genuinely tell Michelle wants every single client to leave happy--because it makes her happy. That level of care and customer service is hard to find and makes all the difference. Also, she fully indulges my C-drama obsession I once asked for pheasant feather details inspired by a Marquis' headpiece, and she made it happen flawlessly. Who does that?! She's the best. The entire team is hardworking, kind, and truly dedicated to what they do. I always leave feeling taken care of and loving my nails. I love coming here--and honestly, you will too.
