    Been going to Tropical Nails for years! I love the whole team. They make sure I always walk out loving my nails ‍

    Yesterday(12/29/24)my friend and I went to get our nails done, and it turned out to be a terrible experience. We had both booked appointments a day in advance, and when we arrived at 11:30 a.m. (their opening time), we were the only customers there. The pedicure was okay, but everything went downhill when they started working on our nails. I showed them a picture and clearly requested French nails with black tips. However, they used white nail color instead of the nude pink base I expected. When I pointed out the mistake, the technician applied nude pink nail polish instead of dip powder, which wasn't what I wanted. The nail shape was also poorly done. She didn't listen to my concerns and rushed through the process as more customers arrived, clearly prioritizing walk-ins over my service. To make matters worse, my nails have already started peeling today. As for my friend, they completely misunderstood her request. Her nails ended up super short, far from what she wanted, and the shape was terrible too. Also the worst part is they are forcing us to convince that the nails are looking good. The service felt rushed and unprofessional, as they were more focused on accommodating walk-ins than providing quality work. We both paid $260 (including tips) for this awful experience. On top of that, they made inappropriate comments about us, which was disrespectful and rude. I'll never return to this salon again.

    From start to finish my experience was poor. The staff fight with each other loudly in the salon. The salon is very old . The guy that did my nails suggested doing acrylic because I have thin nails so I said ok. He didn't use a new cuticle cutter and I said him to sanitize it. Next day 2 nails popped off. Definitely won't be coming here again. $50 for such poor work and poor experience

    Those are my nails!

    This has been the best nail service I have received hands-down! Highly recommended. Do not waste your money anywhere else. Everyone is super friendly, including the owner. I recommend Tammy for design. A very relaxing environment.

    Purple ombré

    I found my new nail salon!! I came in after work today requesting purple ombré. I showed Tammy a picture and she had Linda do my nails. She did an amazing job!! She made it look so easy, which I know it wasn't. They really cared about getting it right and making sure I was happy. I am definitely coming back and bringing my two daughters with me!

    So happy I found this place! Tammy does a great job and the prices are reasonable. Loved my gel nails and design. I showed her a picture and she exceeded my expectations in recreating the look! Chairs are also super comfortable and I liked being able to watch TV while getting this all done. Maybe the new regular spot for me! :)

    My go to nail spot. I discovered this spot when I was desperate for a mani pedi before an event. I was is happy they had an opening in their schedule for me. Ever since then I keep coming back. Sundays they're schedule is pretty open for walk ins but always better to call ahead and schedule if you can. But overall they welcome walk ins and will do best to accommodate you. Hope to see you there!

    I drive from San Clemente for Aileen! I'm super picky and have tried so many local lash artists to…read morethe point of ending up in Lake Forest for new options! She does them exactly how I like them and both eyes always look exactly the same. I've had previous experiences where my eyes don't match at all and they have told me "our eyes are sisters not twins". True, but not an excuse to look like each eye was done by a different person on a different day lol. Also I'd like to add that small details matter to me, I like that they wear masks when working so close to your face (I've also left some artists that did exceptional work but had awful breath) and, they put a towel over your forehead so that they're hands/wrists aren't resting on your skin the whole time which I'm sure can cause break-outs for some people. She spends the entire amount of time on my eyes and sometimes I go for a 1 week fill knowing I don't need much but she still works on them for them entire hour. Not to keep bashing others, but I've also paid $100+ for 1 week fills that they say are one hour appointments and then they only work on them for 10 minutes and charge the full amount. I like the integrity here and it's a clean comfortable space on top of all that!

    Eileen is so professional and meticulous She was extremely…read morethorough to give me the lash look I requested. She was very gentle and considerate about my comfort during the procedure. I highly recommend Aileen at shine lash salon.
