Kailua Nail Care

I have been a client of Lani’s for awhile now. I REFUSE to go to anyone else. She is very creative and always stays up-​to-​date with new trends and nail art. She makes compelling recommendations when it comes to color and design choice of my nails and I am always happy with the quality of her work. I usually ask her what she thinks would look nice on my nails, whether it be the nail polish color, shape, or other embellishments and I trust her so I always go with her suggestions. For example, today she surprised me with this new sticker art she wanted to try out on my nails and a new nail polish she bought which changes color with the changes in temperature. She is also very nice and fun to talk to.
I am leaving for a trip next week and will be gone for a few weeks. Today she did my nails and told me she was going to make my nails a little thicker this time around to accomodate for the fact that I will be travelling and toting my luggage around and might hit my nails against my luggage or might hit my nails whilst on my trip since I will be a lot more active than normal, which I really appreciated because I want my nails to last awhile.
She does eyelash extensions, too!!!

Lani is an amazing nail tech. She always does a phenomenal job on my nails. Go Broncos go!!!

Horrible job came i for a pedicure was there for like 15 minutes the paint job was horrible and the lady rushed through it all she cut my fongers and when i said something she said that is the way ot is horrible horrible never again and when i was telling a friend she started mumbling under her breath in another language. Just horrible service.

Clean and well located in Kailua town lots of parking throughout the area. I’ve been coming here for over 10 years and have recommended it friends and family. Walk ins are welcomed and the staff is very professional.

Really enjoyed my experience. They were able to get me right in. And did my nails exactly how I wanted from a picture I showed from Pinterest!

I’ve been going here for over a year now and have not found a place better than Kailua Nail Care! Kailua may be a bit out of the way for me, but driving there to have my nails done by Drake is definitely worth it!!! He is the sweetest, truly cares about his clients and their happiness, takes his time-​does not rush, and can make the best designs! Definitely a great place to go, make sure to ask for Drake if you have any difficult designs you’d like to try!!!

Got my nails done at another shop and they were the WORST NAILS IVE EVER HAD!!! it was 6:30pm and I called this shop to see if they could fix my nails and make them presentable! They allowed me to come in and were very kind and welcoming. Drake was my technician, he was personable, great to work with and made my experience wonderful! I will be coming here from now on and having Drake do my nails going forward! I would recommend this salon to everyone! Don’t go anywhere else!

I just have Full set and gel polish over
OMG ! The lady did my nails very horrible
Never coming back here again

I kinda feel like this place is hit and miss– sometimes I have an OK time and others it’s like I’ve annoyed them somehow by showing up and asking for a service– this time I have to speak up– I know I may not «look» like I have money or I’m not all dolled up but I would expect the same treatment as anyone else– and this time it was just plain and simple — I don’t care about you service– my nails really look horrible and I could go back but why would i ?! She cut my nails and was almost going to make them flat even though I have pointed tips natural nails– if I wanted them flat would I ask for them? I just came in for a color change and a fix (I tore 3 nails) and they said they could do it no problem– but when I say down she didn’t even talk to me– and then kept talking to everyone around her but me and then was about to clip my nails off– and I was like –no I want them points tip– then she asked if I wanted them trimmed and I was ok maybe alittle and she cut my thumbs down and didn’t even shape them back to the way they were before– I asked for them to be more shaped and she ran her file over my nails like 2 times and was this good? It was already and hour on my nails so I was ok I’m done– I’ll get them fixed someone else– my toes were good — so thankfully that was worth the money spent but everything else — not good and she kept yanking my hair– I have wrist issues! So maybe before you pull on someone’s hands you should ask them! I will ever go back– they probably won’t care because they have tons of customers but either way– I’ve said my piece– thank you for the service I just will find somewhere else to spend my money

I was really pleased with this place because I didn’t make an appointment and they got me in a chair right when I got there! They were very busy and worked fast! I didn’t give 5 stars only because I would’ve liked a longer scrubbing on my feet for those annoying caleses ! It seemed like you had to get the deluxe pedicure just to get a good scrubbing. But other than that I had a mani with gel and a pedi with regular paint and it looks great! They were very nice and it was clean which is always nice! Would definitely go back again! Now my nails are looking beautiful for my 21^st birthday :)

Gel polish! I love that they talked me out of acrylic so that I can grow my nails nice and long!!! I always get great service here and I am never disappointed with my mani or pedi, and mind you I am picky when it comes to nails because I own all the stuff to do gel polish on my nails and I usually maintain my own nails. I went here because two of my natural nails broke and I wasn’t sure how to repair them. I was going to have all my natural nails cut off and acrylic put on but my nail lady was able to save my two cracked and broken nails and use the hell polish after all! She did a lovely job I can not complain! I think her name was Ann! I have gone to many different people however and they all have done a good job!

I used to come here on the regular, but after having moved to town, I have to plan my nail treatments. So I called to make an appointment with a specific technician, I got there and the technician was suddenly booked. Then they tried to stick me with a lady who I’ve had before and I did not want. They said «well you can get a pedi today, and just come back tomorrow for the manicure» — seriously?! No I can’t «just come back tomorrow», I don’t live down the street! Apparently half the staff doesn’t work on Wednesdays?! And the pedi water is cold!

I like coming here but I went Saturday and no I had a bad experience my nails are aching so bad. Plus it seems like I got them weeks ago I’m not happy at all
47 dollars and some change I got charge
For almond shape nails.
When i got the receipt, I didn’t put a tip because I was not happy with my nails. And the lady that didn’t even do my nails ringed me up and was like okay «you giving tip in cash» and I said no «okay put tip in card»
…,
Like no I was so embarrassed cus she kept asking. So I said im not giving a tip and She started speaking in her native language like she was talking shit and Then she said in English OMG NO TIP.
Los no I didn’t leave a tip because I was not happy with my nails they look horrible.
Updating my review because I went today and even though the original lady that did my nails the first time was like hesitant to what I had to say. Annie was very nice and she fixed my nails

I love coming to Kailua Nail Care! Specifically Rosey, who was recommended to me by a friend! I’ve had awful experiences at other places so I was hesitant to change up my usual nail game… but so glad I did.
Rosey is fast, but efficient and I have not had one chip! She is also the queen of designs so when I’m feeling adventurous I can be rest assured she’ll do a good job!
they are busy so I recommend calling ahead and getting an appt if you can! It’s in a good location parking isn’t too bad!

Really happy I ended up trying this salon, I was skeptical of it and didn’t know what to expect, but I really didn’t know you could get this kind of high quality nail service at such a reasonable price! 100% recommend this nail salon.

I always see Diana. She is amazing and I NEVER have any issues lifting or paint peeling. I have been coming here for 3 years and no matter how busy they are I am always seated within 10 minutes. The whole staff is super nice and friendly. 5 stars from me :)

Jill is amazing! I absolutely love this place! The people are friendly, the place is clean, perfect location! Tons of fabulous gel colors! LED light to dry gel so no UV issues! Great wax as well! Prices are very reasonable! Great deluxe pedicure with hot stone massage! If you are in Kailua and need your nails done this is the place!

The best nail salon in Hawaii. I leave in town but drove here just to get my nail done by Drake he the best and supper nice. I also get my eyes brown done by Martha she amazing, fast you can’t even feel the pain.

Bottom line: Ask for Rosanna. I’ve also heard Jill is good. Clean, professional, quality work. This review is based on my experiences mainly with Rosanna.
I’ve been getting my nails done in salons for years. I travel a lot so I’ve had my share of terrific & terrifying experiences with nail salons in Hawai’i as well as ones on the «mainland».
I recently started getting acrylic nails with gel color and have been addicted ever since! Now if only my choice in color would last as long as my nails! Damn you Pinterest!
I’ve come to Kailua Nail Care a few times in the past and had ok experiences. I’ve had the infamous «guy with the tattoo» you might have read about in other reviews. I had been to other nail salons that I liked better like Pearl Nails in Pearl City or T and T nails in Kaneohe with Daniel. But now I’ve found my spot! Rosanna is awesome! I almost don’t want you to know about her because you may be taking my next appt. But after seeing their lack of stars on Unilocal I needed to write about my great experience here.
I like the way she does my acrylics much better than anyone else I’ve been to. She doesn’t apply it too thick so it looks and feels more like my actual nails. My gel color is always smooth WITHOUT bubbles AND the girl knows how to bling! If you’re into that. I get compliments all the time on my nails. I will definitely be coming here from now on but hopefully I can hold off for a couple weeks.

Kailua nail care us located inside if a shopping center so there is alot of parking and a lot of nail specialist so you can get a pedicure nails and waxing all in one place which I like been going there for several years however I go to one person all the time so the quality of the workmanship I get us always great and I am very pleased get name is Rosanne I suggest her or also Jill or Kellie you won’t be disappointed with either of these professional nail specialist to help with your hands or feet
The place is very clean and the pedicure chair are up to date so you can relax and enjoy getting your pedicure!
So if you visit this place remember to ask for one of those I mention to get great service every time
