Way too expensive for a gel pedicure ($55 + $20 for the deluxe supreme which included callus remover and 10 minutes extra massage ), was getting chewed up by mosquitoes the entire time, no AC (hence leaving the door open allowing flies to come in) and the "massage" portion which I paid extra for as part of the package was just rubbing lotion on my legs for a 10 min. Unfortunately this is the only nail place on this side of the island that I know of, but I will now be driving into Kaneohe for all future appointments. I also don't think they care about bad reviews so this is more for future customers, not the business owners. read more

Amazing. My nail was about to rip off and he saved it perfectly. Also did gel to the rest with very good shape. If I lived in the area I would be here as often as I could. read more

I would leave a negative review if possible. i knew from looking at reviews that I was taking a chance and it was a huge mistake to come here. Terrible! Cut my nails so short they bled. I told them not short just even out with file but the lady just cut away until I had to actually stop her from cutting. Now I will have 10 ingrown toenails. Also they told me to come right away and then had me wait 30 minutes. also the salon had flies everywhere. Don't go! read more

I went in to wax my EYEBROWS ONLY. THAT ASIAN LADY WAXED DIFFERENT PARTS OF MY FOREHEAD WHICH LEFT PATCHES ON MY HEAD which I didn't ask or pay for. AND PROCEEDS TO TELL ME THAT " usually I charge people for extra work but for u give it for free. I looked in the mirror , I liked my brows but my forehead area I didn't notice the patches of the parts that were waxed and that parts that weren't. I went outside to get a better lighting I saw how terrible it looked on my face. I came back to ask her. "HEY AUNTY, CAN U FIX WHAT U DID TO MY FOREHEAD, BC I DIDNT ASK YOU TO WAX MY FOREHEAD SINCE I DIDNT PAY FOR IT. she started saying, oh u need to pay me extra for that. I told her " why did you give extra service then, I didn't ask or pay for extra work. She started getting so defensive and didn't want to own up or be accountable for what she did to my forehead. On my forehead now there's parts that are waxed and some patches that wasn't so it looks very weird. I recommend that you don't go to this place. EVEN WHEN YOURE DESPERATE! Avoid it! I give this place a NEGATIVE ONE MILLION read more

My nails are still trying to recover from a set from months ago. They cracked off almost immediately. Too expensive. Acrylics

This is the 2nd time I've visited this nail salon and both experiences were terrible. The 1st visit, they convinced me to use an off-brand that stained my nails red for 3-4 months after until it grew out. Deciding to give it another try out of convenience, I went today. The older lady was extremely rude. After she again tried to convince me that the OPI polishes weren't good, I told her what happened in Vietnamese since she didn't understand English. She ignored me and poured water into the OPI until it spilled out everywhere. One nail looked awful and when I asked her to redo it, she said the clear coat would take care of it (it did not). $80 later and could've done a better job myself at home. I won't be back. Very unprofessional! read more

I just had a simple mani pedi with Tiffany at US Nails, and she was wonderful! Detail oriented, efficient but patient at the same time. I was hesitant to make my appointment based on the low stars on Yelp, but I had a completely different experience with no complaints. These customers must have seen a different employee? There were only 2 people working, but thankfully I called and she was free to help me right away. The massage chair was AMAZE. I will definitely go back for a simple mani pedi. I just can't comment for more detailed services like acrylic, nail art, or waxing. read more

US Nails - Simple regular mani, no complaints she was great! - Nail Salons Near Me - Laie, Hawaii

The lady I had doing my nails was not nice at all, she also did a really bad job. I got Gel nails on Friday and less than 2 days later they were already peeling off. I also had to tell her several times to put the polish to the end of my nail. I did a french tip and they are all crooked and different sizes, as well as white streaks being left. The lady (who was probably the owner) did a great job on my daughtes nails, but if you don't get her you will not be happy. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. She was doing a horrible job, cutting into the middle of my nails too, so I asked for her to stop and I'll pay for what she did so far. Then she proceeds to attempt to over charge me more than the price of a FULL job, when the full job price was posted on the door. I showed her the price that is LITERALLY POSTED on the door, so she went down to that price, BUT I ONLY GOT PART OF THE JOB DONE. So I gave up and just paid. My nails look like a mess now. Avoid this business, go anywhere else. Never experienced this lack of care in my life for my nails. Essentially tried to scam me. read more

I go here when I'm lazy to drive to Kaneohe lol Tiffany is the sweetest person ever. It's usually just her and the owner so I would call and make an appointment. I really don't do anything drastic or hard for her I'm pretty simple. Prices are reasonable for the quality you get. Just make an appointment and call first. read more

Service horrible . Tried to make me pay more by saying a certain service could not be done . I asked if they could just cut and polish toe nails, nail tech said they cannot and a pedicure for 35 is all they could give me and it's so ugly and messy , then they proceeded to change me $10 more , My nails were the worst , asked for dipped powder which is $55 they charged me $65 and say " next time ready the sign" my nail immediately fell apart and chipped the next day . I highly recommend driving into the city to get quality work done ! I will be returning to see if they fix the problem, I did tell the nail technician to fix it that day , she turns and called the other technician who told me they won't fix it ! read more

US Nails is the bomb. I looked them up on my way to Foodland in Laie. The shop is quaint and has a new owner. The young lady who preformed my pedicure was amazing. I just sat back and enjoyed the massage chair. My feet are as smooth as a babies butt. Toe color on fleek. Purple is Passion The prices are a little expensive especially since it's the only shop in Laie. $35 Pedicure only +5 for extra callus remover +15 for Deluxe Pedicure with Mint Scrub +25 for Super Deluxe Scrub w/ Orange Mango Scrub Note: My Tan lines are real read more

Had no idea how to do a dip manicure. Was there for 4 hours for a dip manicure & regular pedicure. Only had 2 ppl working & kept telling customers to come back. Hot mess. And my dip manicure is already chipping away & I just got it done 3 days ago. read more

they did an amazing job and managed to squeeze me in and I'm so grateful!!! so kind and I love my nails yay xoxo

Very rude and unwelcoming. I went there today, and awkwardly stood there for over 5 minutes without an acknowledgment whatsoever as the workers were right there only a few feet away. It got cringeworthy, so I simply walked away. Ewww This place is hit or miss. More miss than hit. I have previously been able to receive service, but other times not. Because it's so frustrating and unreliable if you'll receive service or not , I rate this one star. It's so incredibly unwelcoming. I wish there was another nail shop in our area, but there's not. read more

Came here to get my acrylics filled, it's closer than other salons so I thought I would try it out. Big mistake. When I walked in there was nobody inside, after a minute someone finally came in. I told her I wanted a fill for my acrylics and she motioned for me to sit down. While she was doing my nails I was trying to trust the process, but she never actually filled my nails. She sanded them down and then started applying polish. I was so confused so I asked her if she was going to fill them with the dip powder but she said her English wasn't good and she couldn't understand me. I gave up and just let her go on, I should have left right then but I'm a people pleaser of course and let her finish. My nails look grown out already because she didn't paint to the cuticle, also they're totally uneven not to mention I didn't even get the fill that I was in there for! By the way that is a listed service they offer. I'm not surprised the place was empty. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE read more

I just got the worse pedicure of my life! I honestly hate leaving these kinds of reviews, she she was very rough , cut my foot very badly , answered the phone 4 times while giving me a "massage" , didn't clean around the nail polish , left bubble and overcharged me. I've given this place several tries and never been super impressed but have gone back for lack of options but I honestly will never go there again, be warned ! read more

To say this is the worst nail salon I have been to would be an understatement. I had to take the nail brush from the "technician" because she could not make a V design on my sisters nail. I REPEAT - I had to take the nail brush from the technicians hand and paint a "V" design on my sisters nail. Meanwhile the whole time the technician scoffing that my sister wanted a design. I'm still in disbelief. Not to mention we went there to get our nails done before my sisters wedding. When we told them that (and we told her that so she would be a little nicer) the technician said "brides always come back and complain I don't want to hear you complaining about your nails." Not as a joke, quite seriously and multiple times. I have never been to a nail salon, which should be a relaxing atmosphere, and felt so heated with anger. I am empathetic for small business but this place was absolute trash. Garbage. A mistake. I still left a tip and I regret every part of it. To be so unprofessional and rude to your customers was an appalling experience. If you are in the north shore it is worth is to make the drive south to get your nails done. Oh she also cut my sisters thumb and made her bleed and my gel nails were chipping by the next week. read more

Popped in for pedicures without an appointment after mailing a coconut home at the nearby post office. They had two clients finishing up but let us come in and wait only a few moments before setting up chairs for us. I opted to get the "super deluxe pedicure extra" which according to the sign is: callus removal, smooth orange scrub, firming mask and a 10 minute massage. This is $20 (in addition to the $35 base price of a pedicure). She removed my old polish with one of those electric things instead of acetone and buffed the nail and trimmed around, but not overly so, which I appreciate. She added some oil and let it sit before using the cheese grater on some of my rough spots. She massaged in an orange scrub then put a lotion-like goop on and hot towel on my feet and set a timer for the massage. The massage was really pleasant and she even went a bit longer than the timer. She grabbed my chosen color and asked if I wanted regular or gel, and I opted for regular polish. I'm not sure what the price difference is. As a side note, it's neat they have the same color in both kinds! She painted my toes and didn't rush and sprayed an oil she massaged into my legs then helped me get my flip flops on without messing up the polish then applied the top coat. My total was 104.71 (my $55 pedicure, plus my friends $45 pedicure, and I'm not sure what the 4.71 was, maybe a credit card fee) and she only wanted the tip in cash. All in all I'm really impressed. It says they can only accept tips in cash and I only have $3 on me so that's really embarrassing. Thankfully my friend had cash to tip. read more

Tiny little nail salon in La'ie Shopping Center. It was my first time coming here as a last resort to get my nails done due to the fact that I didn't want to drive to another town to go to the nail salon that I usually go to. They accept walk ins and appointments. When I got there it was packed. They only have 4 pedicure chairs and 4 tables for manicures. The pedicure chairs looked and felt fairly new and felt great with the massage going. They have a very small variety of regular nail polish and a huge variety of gel nail polish. My pedicure seemed a little rushed, but the leg massage made up for that. I didn't like how my manicure came out though. She cut my nails too short and I don't like how she shaped my nails. The arm massage was also lame. Overall, the staff were extremely friendly and call you "honey" just how Angela Johnson jokes about. That was a first for me at a nail salon and I couldn't help but laugh to myself. I would suggest this place as a 2nd resort or if your desperate to get your nails done in Laie. Unfortunately this place will not be a first resort for me. read more

These ladies always do such an awesome job! Never rush the process, always laughing & hood vibes. Today I came in with a complicated and time consuming request for my nail design and the nail technician named Trish was so patient and kind the whole time ! 10/10 would recommend!! Super stoked with the results. read more

To start, if you're thinking about going here - don't. I live close to this salon and my sister and I wanted to get manicures. We made an appointment, came at the time but they didn't start until an hour later because all technicians were helping other customers. This place is 100% about quantity over quality. When she sat me down and I showed her the design I wanted, she laughed and asked if I wanted it like that on every finger. Me being nice, I said you can just put the design on 2 fingers. The rest can be plain French tip. Let's talk about my French tips. She didn't even ask what shape I wanted so that was a bust. She made my nails look like little claws. The French tip is basically a straight line across. They are all so uneven. It's such a shame that they even call this place a salon. I blame myself a lot for not telling her to stop. But I don't like being that person. But now that I think about it, it wasn't worth this jump-scare nails on my fingers. I'm not usually one to write reviews either but if I just hope this saves someone else. read more

The worst place ever. They don't really clean; and they are extremely expensive; not friendly. Avoid at all costs ! 1 star for the parking ! read more

Horrible customer service since the first step in the salon. Nail tech insisted on a certain fill, when I came in for something entirely different. She proceeded to argue with me that I should do it her way, and after saying I want it the same way I've done for years, she has an attitude and I walked out. No wonder their ratings are so bad! read more

I thought I would give them another chance after having a pleasant pedicure done by Jay. I showed up to my appointment on time despite the many other errands I had to run and there were only 2 workers and all pedicure seats occupied. I was told to come back in 40 minutes but I won't be returning. Time is money. I don't appreciate that they make appointments but don't follow through with the respectful time. I would not recommend going here. read more

Since the owner has changed They start using machine to remove soak off gel nails without wrapping aluminum foils with acetone. Scraped off my own nails with machine :( using machine is way faster so they can take more customers. Quantity than quantity. My own nails became super thin and sensitive . They just told me to wait to heal and come back ! Im too afraid to go back Lol . Careful when you ask for removing gel nails ! read more

Located in the Lāie shopping center it's the only nail salon I could find in the area. They had a really great special for a mani + pedi w/ gel polish for only $50.00. As soon as I stepped in the door I was immediately greeted and although they were busy within five minutes I was serviced. The funny part was seeing how many guys were there getting a pedicure. It's a very small salon so you'll be able to see and hear everyone and everything that's happening. The nail technician I had was very experienced, she didn't rush the mani or pedi and I felt so relaxed and comfortable. For my nails I requested a design but I could tell by her expression it wasn't a design or maybe technique she was familiar with using so I found a simpler design which she made and I was so happy with the outcome. Don't waste time driving to Kāneohe or Turtle Bay get your nails done in Lāie if you're on the North Shore. read more

They don't pay attention to detail. I got a pedicure and the colors didn't match their pallet so I opted for white and they missed spots and left it even after I pointed it out. My friend was with me and got acrylic nails and they even go down to her nail bud and had a huge gap in between and were extremely thick. Unappealing and unprofessional. read more

I have gone here 3 times because my technician of many years on Kauka Blvd. has been unavailable due to a family illness. She does my gel nails beautifully for 26 dollars. Ask for Than. I think she will be back on Wednesday. Meanwhile this shop owner has so over charged me. My last visit was 89.99 That's 90 bucks friends for a pedi/mani. I am a good tipper but the ATM machine was out of order. She has a sign on her register "tips cash only". I gasped when I saw my bill. And twice before service and after explained the ATM situation. When I got my outrages bill she took her finger and pointed at the tip part on the receipt. Are you kidding me lady? She speaks very little English and talks constantly in Vietnamese to a co-worker. Fast and unpleasant than I have ever experienced! I never heard a response so I assumed she must have a cell phone ear bud and was talking to someone. The other lady said, no she's talking to me. I just let it go in one ear and out the other. Oh and she quit. My last recent visit the 90 bucks one was SO rushed. The gel polish was put on SO thick it lifted and peeled within days. Looked horrible right after she finished and hit me on the back with her fist three times to make out like this is a special bonus. I had ask for only two coats of gel. She also over drilled my natural nails to thin and brittle. She gave me the fastest pedicure I ever had. I explained my ingrown toenail and she said, "you no worry I fix it." My toe was throbbing when I left. Also before arriving she was doing 3 pedicures back and forth on 3 visitors from the mainland. They had gel fingernails done also. I heard her charge them 60 dollars each. The salon itself is a dirty hole in the wall with no bathroom except outside in a long narrow alley between stores in this strip mall. Please think really carefully before going here. And if you do ask for firm prices up front. Her prices on the wall are very confusing and she says at checkout "but I had to do this and that". I live on the North Shore and went for travel convenience. Never again! And that finger tapping on my enormous bill was so greedy. She'll take your tip anyway she can. So why the cash only sign? I had explained the FHB atm was out of order before she ever started. Greedy, annoying voice that never stops and unsanitary conditions. 1st visit she actually used the pink polish on her work station and never ask me to pick a color. Good luck. I returned 2 times more because most technicians can fix an ingrown toe nail. read more

Today I got a manicure. Two of the employees did not have masks on. She put a mask on when she sat down. The tools were wiped down and did not look as if they are sanitized and the towel did not look clean. She failed to ask nail length and I ended up with stumpy nails. :( :( I wasn't happy. She left sharp edges that I did not notice until I got home. I would not return to this establishment. read more

This place did a bait and switch. I'm under the impression.my pedicure which I might add was nothing out of the ordinary a 10 minute massage some product, but the whole thing was an hour. I look at the signs and it says 20.00 next to it is another that says 10.00, the girl asks if I want that, I said ok. Should be 30.00 on the way out she tells me I owe her 47.12. My jaw dropped, I couldn't believe it. Paid the 47.12 no tip and told her I would not be back. No gel polish, no frills, no designs, no stones. Rotten way to do business. On top of that I was the only client in there and there were three other pedicurists, they continued to laugh and chat in Vietnamese and little or no chat with me. Very rude. read more

I'd put half a star if I could. My group had a horrible experience at this location. 1. My cousin got a pedicure and within 30 minutes of us leaving, we noticed her nail polish PEELING off. Not chipping - peeling. We returned to the location to ask for some sort of reimbursement. She wanted to pay for the pedicure portion without polish... from there, she got yelled at and the employee inappropriately and rudely addressed the issue inadequately. The employee denied any potential reimbursement. She yelled and offered to repaint, but at this point we had already spent 2 hours in the nail salon. 2. My pedicure was scolding hot and after asking to make it cooler several times, it was still scolding. They also didn't soak my gel polish off, they used an electric filer and burned the paint off because they were in a rush. Both of the pedicures received were painful and unenjoyable. 3. Our third group member waited over an hour for a nail tech to become available and still didn't get her nails done. Overall we are very unpleased with the attitude of the employees and the entire experience. It was also awkward and inappropriate because the nail technician asked who I voted for .... read more

While the people doing the nails seemed pleasant, somewhat... They did not take note of what was requested when my future daughter in law called to make the appointment - there will be six persons getting mannys and pedis. Something got lost in the translation. There were only two people working - one doing manicures the other doing pedicures. However one of the people did switch off from time to time but it just didn't work out because there were all of us .... and then a couple other customers... It just got to be confusing and not efficient as far as time usage. In the end some of us were not able to get the services that we had hoped for and it was just disappointing. They knew what was expected before we arrived and they didn't prepare for what was wanted... and it was not the fake nails one of the technicians continually pushed. I am confused as to why someone told my future daughter in law to come in at a specific time and not be able to provide the services that are requested. In the end two of our party got nothing because there was no time! The shop didn't have enough techs for the job - and their rates while competitive were still a tad over the top because they charged for the littlest thing as being extra like $10 more for this or $10 more for that.... That's not right...that's not good business practice. This would have been my very first manicure at almost 60 years old and I still didn't get it so I am a little disappointed... and for such a wonderful occasion as my son's wedding... read more
