Yall... this place is small but looks are DECEIVING IN A GOOD WAY! THEY ARE AMAZING!!! Their nail art is fantastic. I have to say I was honestly skeptical but I noticed the reviews said to trust it and I did and now I am so happy that I did! The nail art is done by hand and having vacationed in Hawaii it has just added to the tropical experience with the Hawaiian flowers πΊ love love love and ask for Trish and Tami!!!!
Tami is not only super talented, sheβs extraordinarily sweet and a delight to chat with. Itβs a no frills salon where I received world class service. Prices are competitive and on par with what youβd expect to pay at a tourist destination. If you get a pedicure be sure to upgrade to deluxe for an extra $10. You wonβt be disappointed. My husband and I will certainly be back on our next trip to Waikiki. Thanks for everything Tami ππΎ
Absolutely LOVEE Tami-A nails!! All of the nail techs are so sweet and accommodating. I had a broken nail and before coming in i tried to fix it myself with nail glue resulting in a bulky finish, But when i came in Trish fixed it right away and made sure I was comfortable with how it looked and felt before moving onto polish! They are the best at freehand flowers and their nail art is astounding. So sad I donβt live in Hawaii because I would definitely make Tami-A my go-to place!! They do not disappoint! They said their card reader doesnβt work sometimes so be sure to have cash for payment. They can get quite busy during the day but walk-ins are always welcomed :) I am obsessed, will be coming back when i get the chance
No, is something they do not say. What ever you want if they have it they will do it.So detailed on how to clean dead skin off your toes for the perfect pedi. Dove into both sides of my big toes for the hang nails I had in there. It was so satisfying I wanted to record it but didnβt want to be rude. I wanted gold tips but I have small nails so she did an ombrΓ© to mimick the same affect and they are so lovely. Iβm in Hawaii for 5 days she knows I wonβt be back, but I will never ever forget this basic pedicure on her part, meant a lot for me to get a pedi on vacation us itβs always a bad experience but this beauty of a person made me feel so comfortable where ppl in the states get so mean if you want your own flare. Sheβs a jem, Lili, is so sweet ask for her.
Im so glad I found Tami! My feet are finally feeling and looking right, and my nails are perfect! The prices are great and not gauging tourists like other salons in the area, and theyre so nice. I highly recommend going to see Tami if you need your nails done. I got a gel mani and pedi (which had a mint scrub and warmed lotion mixture that was luxurious), all for 73+tax!
This is the best nail salon! Very professional and friendly. Prices are reasonable and great for men and women!
The service here is very good, one of the best ever! The people are all very hospitable and inviting, they make you feel really comfortable. Nails here were very good and professional. Overall a great experience!
Fantastic find in Waikiki! Super friendly, fast and quality Mani/pedi for my daughter and myself in just over an hour. Better prices than the mainland states. Highly recommend!
Do NOT let the old building fool you. You will get the best pedicure of your life at this place. Had quite a few over the years and this was by far the best. They are so kind and attentive absolutely will come back next time Iβm in town.
To be honest my nails look amazing! Pricey but what isnt in Hawaii.... also bring cash its preferred!
The place doesnβt look good, letβs get that out of the way. They also donβt have a huge selection of nail polishes. However, of all the nail salons Iβve ever been to (too many to count), this place has the best quality of manicures and pedicures. I got hard gel and let me tell you, not a single scratch or chip. I was in Hawaii at the beach everyday and doing crazy activities, I wasnβt even expecting my results to last a week but they lasted a month!! Iβve never had these types of results and Iβve paid over a $100 for manicures at some high end places. The staff really puts in a lot of work.Didnβt love that they wanted to charge me $5 extra for cuticles so I passed on that.Highly recommend if you want quality, long lasting manicure.
My services done by Lanie (hope Im spelling it right) were amazing. Greeted with a warm welcome and treated very kind. My gel deluxe pedi and my gel mani polish change turned out amazing ππ½ππΎππ½ I also really appreciate the fact that she took get time and did a great job, even though I was pressed for time. Thank you ladies πβ€
The ladies here are not only friendly, but very good at what they do. If youre looking for self care and pampering this is the place to go. They have great customer service and both my husband and I enjoyed every moment of our time here.
I got a gel manicure-pedicure here and the ladies who did it were very friendly and efficient. The pricing was very reasonable- donβt let the ambiance be a turn- off. This was one of the best quality mani-pedis Iβve had in a long time- my nails have survived a very active vacation- being dragged through sand, coral, sunscreen, dirt, etc. And they are still completely in tact without any scratches or chips!!! Highly recommend this place, and will definitely return on my next trip to Oahu.
Tami and Lena both are excellent with manicures and pedicures. They did an excellent job with a great value. It was a pleasure going to Tamis salon.
Great value and QUALITY! The ladies and gent are super nice. They did our nails beautifully! They do the best feeehanded hibiscus πΊ flower Iβve ever had done! HIGHLY recommend!
The staff is Soo good at what they do, so nice and friendly. Do not let the exterior fool you they do a great job!
Was able to walk in and get service quickly. Would highly recommend!
I love this place. They have always done a fantastic job on my nails! Just call first because they do get busy rather fast.
Good deal, great service, got a deluxe Mani Pedi for 60 bucks and I didnt have to wait long. Nice people too.
Amazing! I bite my nails and had nothing to work with on one hand but they very professionally worked on them for me to give me beautiful nails again!
My absolute favorite place to get my nails done! I tried walking in at several locations and all turned me down, except for the techs here. They did such a lovely job that I ended up getting my mani/pedi done here 3 times during my 2 month stay. When I ever come back to Waikiki, I will definitely get my nails done here! They are busy, so appointments are highly recommended.
I went in for a simple nail repair and I received excellent customer service. I would recommend this location. π
Nice and kind artists! Thank you for the beautiful nail.
Did a beautiful job on my nails! A flower did warp a bit after applying top coat too quickly. So, make sure you get enough dry time but they still look super cute!!
The staff here are lovely. I got a shellac mani/pedi and eyebrow wax and was very pleased with the service. Trisha was meticulous on her work and did an amazing job on the flower designs on my finger and toes, I was blown away by her artistry! They answered all the questions I had and the prices there were super reasonable! Highly highly recommend!
Small, unassuming spot in Waikiki. Reasonable prices for excellent work. Im usually really picky about my pedicures, and they did a great job on top of being super sweet and accommodating.
Deluxe pedicure! You wont regret it. Trish does an amazing job. My toes look perfect . shes very into details. I paid 38$ for deluxe pedicure,good price for great service
As previous reviews day dont let the looks of the place scare you. Theyre at least 1/2 the price if what I normally pay and quality beyond expectations. If Im ever back in Waikiki Ill definitely wait to get my pedicure done there!!
Best pedicure ever, my feet have never looked so good. Friendly and they take their time. Great experience.
My favorite place for getting my acrylic nails done. I definitely recommend going on the afternoon, since the manicurist is the best they have β€οΈ thank you!
Got a mani and pedi. They are very careful and such sweet people
Super friendly and did a great gel pedicure & manicure. In waikiki but not crazy waikiki prices, very reasonable! My new favorite nail spot.
Wonderful! I went in for a pedicure and wanted flowers put on my big toes. They were really busy but took the time to put a lot of attention to detail on the flower artwork. The pics donβt do it justice. My sons foot in the pic. He wanted to join me for the pedicure but I got a break from him.Extra friendly to customers that came in after me and they felt the wait would be too long. So they asked them nicely to come back tomorrow and kept saying βI hope to see you tomorrow, please come backβ Next time Iβm in WaikΔ«kΔ«, I would definitely only come to this salon for my flower nail art work.
The estheticians were great! The mani pedi looks wonderful. I hadnt been in a salon since before covid, over a year. It was a wonderful experience! Relaxing with a beautiful outcome. Hand painted flowers and hot wax and an open air atmosphere. Thank you!
I recommend Tamiβs nails to all who needs their nails and feet done. Very outstanding service! My soulmate and I are very pleased. Tami & Jenny did an awesome job!Thanks again!
I love my mani pedi by Trish, especially the gorgeous hibiscus painted onto my toenails. Just gorgeous and very reasonably pricedThe salon itself needs updating, but dont keep away!Make appointment, it gets busy!
I did the span mani pedi special and it really is a great value! The staff is nice and is very detail oriented. I didnβt feel rushed at all. While it may look small and older on the outside, the service and valuable are 100% worth it.
This little hole in the wall salon was by far the best pedicure Iβve ever received. My husband and I were on a staycation and popped in. The technicians were so friendly and professional. After we left we agreed to a date night in town once every few months for pedicures and dinner. We are willing to drive from the windward side just got get pedicures here!
Awesome people! Catered to all my silly Christmas nail art requests! Theyβre amazing and two weeks later the gel is still good!
Wonderful genuine people. Excellent pedicure. Amazing manicure
This is the best mani pedi I have recieved. I really go in for a quality clean up. The massage and paint is bonus but Lilly really took the time and was amazing! The cleanup to the paint and nail design was great. The service exceptional (everyone in the salon) and the prices great. Thank you!
I got newly engaged a few days before and went there with my fiance for both of us to get pedicures and manicures and enjoyed the visit. They finished pretty quickly and the quality was good.
Not what I expected from the high reviews on line. The salon was a hole in a wall and kind of dated. They didnβt even have a nail drying station and can really use a deep cleaning. Service was hit or miss, Tami herself was friendly, my particular nail technician was on the pushy side for more add on services.
This salon is awesome! Very friendly, a bird flies in they call Peewee, very cuteπ§‘ππΊTrishs artistry on my purple, french with plumeria manicure was perfect! And, the gel polish is holding up to bodyboarding in Waikiki.MAHALO!!
Best mani Iβve had!
The BEST nail salon I have EVER visited! Iβm from the eastern coastal area of the continental US, have lived in major cities all throughout, frequent Southeast Asia often, always have my acrylic nails and gel pedicure and let me tell you - Tami-A Nails KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING!!!! I almost regret leaving this review because I donβt want this spot to blow up.
I waited 10 to 15 minutes because they were a little busy. However when Tami got to me she was super fast. Knocked out my shellac mani, nail repair, soak off gel, and spa pedicure in 90 mins tops. And they look beautiful. Plus she has matching shellac polish for your hands, to regular nail polish for your feet! Thanks Tami I love my pink glitter nails!
Great work and friendly staff.
Cant recommend enough! Had the best experience with Tami. She was so lovely and thorough with my nails. Iβm on holiday and so did some research before and found this was the most reasonably priced by far! Very transparent with prices and just great service and wonderful result!
Super nice people, great job!
Best nail salon Iβve ever been too! I wish I lived in Oahu just to come see these wonderful people! They explained everything they were doing and were very clear about prices. They asked my opinion to confirm any service before beginning. Made sure I was happy with the shape and color/design. I understood them perfectly and they were all great conversationalists. Made me laugh constantly. Beautiful work and gentle hands. Were perfectionists and skilled artist. Their prices were moderate as well. Gel pedi is $50 and acrylic fill-in with gel is $45. Designs are $8 per two nails. But they donβt have parking so walk instead. Would recommend to the world! See my gorgeous designs on yelp! πππ
My mom and I went here to get a pedicure, and they were great! Very accommodating and professional. It is a very small place, so if you have a large group Id recommend calling ahead to see if they can accommodate you. Also they only accept cash.
Me and my husband paid almost $200 for two deluxe pedicures and a full set gel nails for me and two days later my pinky nail broke off and two days after that my middle finger broke off .. 70$ gel nails are supposed to be strong and sturdy their gel is really weak and a low grade the gel is soft on my nails and they put the acrylic on very thin very low grade I would not waste my time going here ever again ....
Wow!!!! I really was Skeptical about getting my nails done any where since Iβm not from here but I have to say Iβm glad I did. Itβs a little hidden gem. The attention and service was amazing and I have to say my pedi was one in a lifetime experience. I really recommend them and they have the cutest doggy ever
I refuse to go anywhere else. Everyone is so nice, they all do amazing work and have great customer service!
Great nail salon in Waikiki. Easy to find and took us early for our appointment. Great color selection.
They do a great job! Get the delux mani
The technician I had did an awesome job.
$40 gel manicure, no frills. Service, results were all great, exactly what I wanted. But this is not a fancy place. Gets the job done, and the manicurists are very nice. Interior, equipment should be updated. Although I didnt get a design, they do many beautiful designs.
I went here to get my eyebrows done! They do an amazing job :)
Anna did a wonderful gel nail polish. Chose just the right color, with attention to detail. Iβm sure it will last 2 weeks. I wished Iβd realized the salon opens on Kuhio street. Not on the street of their official address. Highly recommend this salon.
They were a little pricey but the guy did a great job.
Wonderful service, fitted me in for a gel polish removal and redo. Good price too. Im really happy with the result. They prefer cash.
Tami did an excellent job on my nails! Im avoiding Shellac atm because of the acetone required to remove it. Despite her warning that it might not last as well, the regular pedicure (with base, color, then top coat) is still intact weeks later β yes, time for another one... She actually asked me if I wanted my toe nails short, and cut them really short. She also painted them low down to the cuticle, so they havent grown out as fast as usual.Tami cleaned up and buffed my fingernails because I didnt want polish, and they are still shiny! This is the best nail salon Ive visited in Waikiki, with surprisingly competitive prices.
Tami did my toes and a full set of nails for me and they turned out perfect! Everyone was so nice and I got helped right away! My feet havent looked or felt so good in such a long time!! Will definitely be coming back!! Prices were really reasonable too!
I had been walking by the salon a few times since staying in Waikiki and after checking out the prices and online reviews I came to give it a try and I dont regret it! They were busy but everyone was so nice and I never felt like they were rushing. The price is normal, not tourist prices so thats always a plus. Its not the prettiest shop Ive ever been too but its one of the best pedicures Ive received! Staff is great my nails/feet are perfect. I got a flower design on my nails and its the prettiest design ever! So much detail was put into it, I just love it!
Tami was wonderful! The service is great and the nail art is beautiful. Google Maps brings you to the wrong side of the building, so make sure to look at street signs to find the place.
Tami squeezed me in today for a acrylic fill & color. She even painted flowers and I love it. Excellent service, highly recommended.
Went in for a fill and color change. Asked for ombre and the male nail Tech did a terrible job blending and polish was very very thick in some spots and so thin and others that I can see my nail underneath. Left with my nails all different shapes even after asking him to fix the shape. He was also very rude to me about it. I thought this place would be awesome due to all the good reviews maybe I just got a bad Tech.
Amazing talent and service!
Wife liked it inexpensive, WALK Ins welcome. She did not like the roughness of the guy that did her nails. Causing bleeding and she said was very very sore for days after..
