I came to this place today after not being in a nail salon in over 3 years and I love how they came out! My nail artist was Eric, and he was such a vibe, very nice & funny with me. Definitely recommend!

Eric's my favorite nail tech! Ive been a client of his for almost 8 years. I'm picky (his favorite picky client ) he always gives me what I ask for, great with reference photos! He's fast and his work is great.

Diamonds fell off

I am not one to write bad reviews but today I really felt the need to do so. I came in to get my nails done with Eric & I am truly truly disappointed & upset. So I came in to get almond French tips (gel x) with little diamonds on each nail. The nails didn't last me 3 days before they started to chip, the diamonds fell off & then I realized that they were see through. I sent Eric a text with proof & wanted a refund & he said that they don't do refunds but he offered to "re do" them. I sent him that text on Saturday but he said that he wasn't available till Monday. Monday comes & he sends me a message that he will only re add the diamonds the fell off. Like what ? I was a little disappointed that the nails didn't come out right but I was trying to be understanding because we all have our days and it happens, but I am more so upset that even with proof he didn't offer to give me a refund or even re do the nails completely for that matter ! I've been coming here for a long time too so it took me by surprise that they did this to me. I will not be returning here anymore.

Best place to get your nails Done & Amady did my nails

Best place to get your acrylic nails Got my nails done by Amady. He took his time with great details. Did not hurt my nails and very clean

Best nail salon in OC!

Love it here!!! This salon has a wide selection of quality nail colors for regular polish, gel & dip! Everyone is so talented, friendly & kind, they treat you like family :) Great service & prices! They are accommodating to your schedule, and even can make those last minute appointments work! Thank you T&K for always keeping my nails healthy & so pretty! Highly recommend! :) I'm going on 9 YEARS! *I've added a few photos of some of my fav nails! Perfection!

I've been coming here for 5 years on & off. I used to come & Tracy used to always do my acrylics & I would get crazy colors & designs. I loved. I recommended everyone here. I stopped coming for a while - took a break from acrylics. 2019 I start coming again but just regular gel manicure & pedicure... & I hate to say it but every time I come I stare at my nails because SOMETHING about them isn't perfect. Now I know perfect is hard - but I'm paying for a service so I expect them to be as close to perfect as possible. They're all nice. For the most part they all know me because I come so often & I hate being the complainer or telling them how to do their job so I don't. I know I should if I don't like something but it's embarrassing to tell someone how to do their job. You're suppose to trust them. So the past three times: 1. I got baby blue & in the sun you could literally see my real nail under 2. I got red nails & he did three cotes on all of them except 3 nails on my right hand because he stepped away & forgot which hand he was on. I told him but he insisted he went over them... I left & could tell the difference in shades 3. Third time was the charm... This is the last time I come back.. I made an appt & the new girl who did my toes, Lo, was amazing, detail oriented & gentle - but the guy doing my hands who I believe is also new cause I've never seen him, didn't even take the red polish I had from before fully off - soaked my gel nails for one minute & buzzed the rest off. He did two cotes & I mentioned why my nails look lumpy & i could see some red spots -- he decided to get a new bottle (should've done it to begin with) & put three cotes on my left hand only because my right hand looked ok after the new bottle....... i could see some red on the side of my nails. I got white nails. So you could see it. So I love the manager Tracy which is why I come back but obvi the past three times were not pleasant. This is my left hand dude.... sorry but I won't be coming back.

Crooked French tip (zoom in)

I got my nails done here for a wedding I was going to. I wanted a simple French tip manicure that was almond or round shape like the one in the picture. The guy who did my nails didn't even know what I meant by French tip, first red flag. He didn't even do my cuticles or remove any dead skin. All he did was buff and file and even then they were very crooked. When he finished the nails, I saw that the white tip was very crooked and jagged. I was too nice to say something as I usually hate complaining or even asking for them to fix it. I hardly ever go to nail salons so this experience was especially disappointing. Also, if you zoom in to my "finished" nails, you'll see the skin and cuticles that weren't even removed during the manicure.

Getting my Glitter Gel on before my Vegas trip!! I was in the area running errands and I happened to find this nail shop on yelp. I was surprised at how CHEAP it was for a gel manicure here, only $20... In Upland it is usually $25 and in Irvine it is about $30. Unfortunately the price I paid really reflected on the service I received. First off their selection of gel colors here were very limited. I wasn't really in love with anything they had to offer. I felt like I ended up settling on my color since I ran out of time before my Vegas trip. The lady suggested that I layered my glitter color with a different color so that it would come out better, but the results weren't that great. My nails looked more like a champagne glitter when I was actually trying to go for a gold glitter. The thing that bothered me the most was how rough the lady was with my cuticles. She was roughly putting on my delicate skin and sure enough my cuticles are all jacked up and peeling now. I also felt like she rushed through the process since halfway through one of her usual clients did a walk in. She painted my nails so quickly some of the gel seeped over on the edge... This is so annoying with gel nails since it dries hard. So cheap, I really wanted to like this place... but I don't... It really isn't worth it for me to come back since I'm not happy with any aspects of the service. Even the hand massage just felt like someone was just lifelessly rubbing lotion on my hands. Obviously I won't be coming back.

Like any other day, a girl has gotta have "me time." This is where mani pedis kick in. It's been over a year since my last mani pedi before this one. About a month ago, i decided to go get a mani pedi because I was starting a new job and I had been tired of my gross boring nails from my previous job... which didn't allow nails at all. When I had the chance, I jumped on it and pampered myself for a few hours. First things first, I never know what to do or say when I walk in because they're all talking to each other... which I've noticed is a pattern in most nail salons. They helped me as soon as they looked at me and I looked at them confused. I had no idea what color I wanted.... just winging it. I ended up picking a nail color I never would expect myself using, a grayish green color. For my nails actually... I wanted acrylics, so I went for it. I got simple kind of like a tan brown colored coffin styled nail, which I was always use to getting and it came our great. I kinda wished I had gotten a simple design or something. But whatevs. At some point, weeks passed and I became irritated with my nails. So I decided to take them off and let them breathe and grow again. I would come back here again... only if I could decide whether or not I wanted to get nails done again or not since i just had my nails ripped off. Came in today and got seated right away. Wasn't too busy and I didn't get the name of lady who did my nails but she did a great job!

Did my Christmas my set and loved it

I would really recommend this nail salon Eric does the best nails! Amazing customer service!!

Are you planning on opening on an appointment only basis soon like so many others are already doing? I just miss my nails and you guys so much! I don't want to go get them done elsewhere so I was HOPING 😅

Hi Mara, Thank you for your questions! We miss our customers dearly too. At this point we do not… 

Is this place open again now from being closed for vivid?

Hi Mara, We are still closed due to the Governor’s executive order. We expect to be able to reopen soon, and we will update our Yelp page when that happen.… 

To get eyelashes do you have to make an appointment or can you do walk in?

I'm pretty sure you can do a walk-in, they're usually not too busy on weekdays.

This was my first time visiting Polished Nail Salon, and I'm beyond impressed--especially since I…read moremade a very last-minute appointment. Steven did an absolutely amazing job on my nails; his attention to detail was spot-on, and they came out exactly how I wanted. I showed a photo for inspiration, and he truly mirrored it perfectly. Susan pedicure was next level--relaxing, detailed, and so well done. The whole experience was top-tier, and the staff was accommodating and welcoming. I will most definitely be back!

This nail salon is now under new management for those familiar with the previous owners (Cindy and…read moreher family) - myself included. I used to be a semi-regular customer but took a six-month break from getting my nails done, so I hadn't been back until recently. I only found out about the management change after seeing the updates on Yelp. While they've kept the same name, Polished Nails, the business is completely independent from the previous management. I visited the other day for a gel-x soak-off after my three-week trip to Asia - I was long overdue for a clean-girl manicure and pedicure. I initially walked in without an appointment (rookie mistake!), so I definitely recommend making an appointment if you plan to visit. Steven was working on another customer when I arrived, but he kindly scheduled me to come back later that day - totally fair, given I hadn't called ahead. Steven and Hannah (new couple) completely remodeled the space, giving it a fresh, modern look. They've also expanded their selection with new polish colors and trendy design options, including textured effects like velvet (cat-eye), intricate 3D art, minimalist styles like micro French and nude diagonals, and bold finishes such as liquid-metal chrome and aura gradients. Steven and Hannah are offering 20% off for all services since they just had their grand re-opening. I requested a basic gel manicure ($35.00), organic basic gel pedicure ($42.00) and my gel-x soak-off ($10.00) - the total was $90.00 and with the 20% off, everything came out to be $72.00 (tipped separately). Though I only got a regular manicure without any designs, I was honestly so impressed by how meticulous and detailed Steven was. I change my nail color pretty often, and I've always wanted that perfect deep burgundy but for some reason, other salons/nail techs could never quite get the tone right. When I showed Steven the shade I had in mind, he did something unexpected: he mixed two different burgundy colors to create the exact tone I wanted. I've never had anyone do that before, and the result was spot on! Even with shaping, I usually have to "inspect" my nails afterward and request small fixes but not this time. Steven got it right on the first try, both in color and shape. It was practically perfect from the start, which says a lot! Regarding this specific Yelp page, it's important to note that it has been acquired by the new owners, Steven and Hannah. I recommend filtering the photos by "newest first" so you can see the updated nail designs and work done by them from August 2025 onward. Any older photos (prior to August) reflect the previous management - Cindy and her family, who no longer operate the salon. By doing this, you'll be able to see the difference in results and style between the previous management and the new one. Lastly, if you're someone who prefers a quiet, relaxing environment and wants to escape the loud, crowded nail salons in the area - while still getting quality nail art and care - I highly recommend coming here. It's peaceful, not overcrowded, and you can actually hear your own thoughts without feeling rushed.

Don't get me wrong, the place is pristine (not to mention the layout is great, well-designed and thoughtfully decorated), but I felt right at home.

Take note : what I only availed of was the basic mani pedi because I was pressed for time. I can't wait to head back to get really worked on. I'm already imagining my first set... yummmmm...

My mom came with me to get a basic mani-pedi, because she doesn't need the works because she had awesome nails, and the ladies ensures that we had water, when my mom got a little too hot they turned the air on more and even brought over a little fan for her Donna did an amazing job on my pedicure!!! It has been at least 5 years since I've gotten my last "me" day, that this was sssooo needed. I felt bad that she had to duck from my calluses but she toughed it out like a champ and made my feet baby soft again!!! And if you're looking for CLEANLINESS, HERES WHERE YOU SHOULD GO! Everything is sterile and has its own packaging that gets opened right in front of your no need to worry about catching someone's funk. I decided last minute about a waxing, but unfortunately it was already occupied. But they are right around the corner, so I can always schedule another appointment for just that. I'm sure they will be amazing at waxing!!! Needless to say ladies and gentlemen, you will want to make this your new go to salon!! OH!!! Make sure that you check their websites for their monthly deals!!!

I'm so glad I found this place on yelp and I gave them a call to see if they could fit me in at a late notice and they asked if I come come right away. Say less!!! I sped here and made it a bit before 7pm and they were so nice. I had a dress on from earlier and the lady doing my pedicure put a blanket on my lap so I wouldn't flash the entire store hahah.

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.
