    I've tried about 7 different nail salons around OC, some good some not so good, but Z nails definitely made it to the top of my list. I had Michael do my full set of acrylics and he was friendly and precise. He made sure I was happy with the shape and length of the nails and was extremely patient while I tried to pick out multiple different shades of colors for each nail (I was going for an easter/spring vibe). The prices are incredible as well, as I had been paying about $85+ average at other salons & that was before tip. I will absolutely be returning and recommend others try this spot out as well!

    I hate leaving a poor review for this place as I know the owners are great at what they do but my nails were done with someone else who apparently had no idea how to put gel manicure. First off when I was there I wanted to do a French manicure with blue tops but when she painted the first one, it was so bad that I asked her to leave my nails without any colors. After just 10 days my nails peeled off ( starting at day 5) I am going to post the photo of my nails and you can judge by yourself. You can tell from my photo that my nails are very new as a couple of them are showing how much my nails have grown. I won't be going back to that lady.

    I absolutely LOVE Z Nails!! I frequently use Heather, as my technician, but truly everyone is incredible and so talented. The staff does an excellent job--taking their time, paying attention to your request and putting 100% effort into the services asked for. The quality of service is impeccable, and I recommend all family/friends to this business!

    Acrylic with gel - transparent light pink

    Returning client. Michael did an amazing job on my acrylic fill with gel polish. Highly recommend any of their technicians for acrylic nails.

    The nail design I wanted , including a color match.

    I shall list below the reasons they are given one star, based on my first time experience. I made an appointment the day of, I was looking to get dip powder with extensions done and the designs based off of either of the two photo options I chose. They both were simple. I sat with Mike, who was kind and somewhat communicative. My issue is the fact that with the design I asked for, i needed assistance on choosing the right dip powder color to match because - I'm not a nail tech nor do I know how the colors come out on my nails after being applied. None of the staff I spoke with, including Mike, helped me choose the right color even after I explained I needed help on picking the closest color he said, "you can pick any of them" - ahhh, no I can't because I'm looking for a copy of the picture I had not some random color to go with dark brown tips. I was looking for a nude base. During the process of removal, my nail extensions were removed yet not done correctly. I still had old product under my nails . There was no cuticle cutting or even cleaning up of my nails before applying the new dip. And most places at the least cut the cuticle to clean up the area for a new application and to also make it look better overall. I continued to allow Mike to work and finish the dip application, however when he began to apply the dark brown tip he didn't use a fine nail brush, he just used the brush from the bottle- which made the application of the French tips look TERRIBLE. Not only that, it didn't match well with the color I tried to replicate from the photo I had. Again, I don't know what to choose and the whole reason for showing a design picture is for the nail tech to copy what they see. I had him remove the brown tips because they didn't look Good nor did the colors go well together. I always tip and tip 20%, but that doesn't mean I'm satisfied with the service. Mike didn't offer to help decide on a different color for the tip or offer any insight on what might go well, so I was at that point over the lack of care within the service provided and just wanted to go home. Mind you, the service took nearly two hours. The nail shaping was not up to par, there are bumps on some of the nails where it hasn't been filed down smoothly. Overall, the experience I had at this nail salon was poor. If someone comes in wanting a design and is willing to pay for it, why are they subjected to make decisions on the colors when they're uneducated in the nail business. The whole point of showing a design to a nail tech is to get a replicated style. I won't be return to this location sadly. Side note: they don't use fans to suck up the dust from the nails and you're breathing all of that in, and that is also why the stars are low.

    Dipping Powder French Manicure by Heather and French Pedicure by Kristine.

    I've been coming to ZNails since 2018, and I would say it's always been a good experience every time. French Dipping Powder by Heather and French Pedicure by Kristine. Top notch quality as always. Check out the photo!

    I love this place! Kimberly is amazing and always does a great job on my nails. I would highly recommend this nail studio. Prices are reasonable and the quality of their work is worthy of a 5-star rating.

    I was recommended to this place by my 2 coworkers and am glad that I went! Heather was amazing!!! I like to keep my nails extra short; she shaped them beautifully and took her time with each nail. I don't often get my nails done but I will definitely be coming back!

My first appointment went well they were treating me nicely I got mani&pedi and gel for both. My second appointment I had to take my daughter with me she's 4 years old and I gave her a tablet and she was just sitting next to me , so it also went ok but what I didn't like they started to speaking in their own language made me feel uncomfortable. Anyways My third time I took my daughter with me again and as soon as I entered she asked me ' Don't you have anyone to watch her?' I said no , I was surprised with this question , she showed me the seat and we sat down. I should've left immediately but since the language barrier I thought she didn't want to be rude it was just how it came out. I was wrong. She wanted to be rude. My daughter sits next to me , she didn't even get up once, she was just in her tablet and sometimes would watch my nails. She doesn't jump around or scream or anything. While she was trying to make herself comfortable in the chair the lady started to telling her don't get up don't do it like that. And I told her hey it's okey she's not doing anything. She said oh because last time a child fell from that chair that's why I'm saying. I didn't like her attitude, obviously if you're seen me with my child it means I didn't have anyone to be watching her. If I would , why would I bring her with me ? This is not how you should be handling the situation. And just speaking your own language in front of a client not professional. I don't understand you I don't know what you're talking about. Anyways this was a lesson to me , I did go back to my old nail salon , they are more professional , they have a smiley face for their client and they don't ask questions that they shouldn't ask. I rather drive 5min more than getting this type of attitude. Good luck.

I've messaged the owner directly and there wasn't accountability taken with the tech or further communication on the situation which was a little disappointing but I understand it's just business after all. However, I haven't let my bad experience deter me from Wendy or Jay. I've had great experiences with both and will continue to see Wendy for my builder gel.
