Happiness Nails

Went in today for a gel fill and they turned out great. I wish I would have gotten the girls name because I would ask for her again. She was very polite and worked quickly. $ 25 for a very good job I think the price is great.

Solid 3 star nail salon.
Lots of chairs and technicians. So they were able to get us in quicker. They are clean and do a solid job with regular mani/​pedis. And the combo is 30 dollars! Amazing deal.
What brought down its stars?
The prices are not posted anywhere, so it appears to be a bit of movement in the price. What I mean is, the price they gave me may have been higher than other patrons.
Two, they rush the massage and manicure portion. I can paint my own nails, I go for the experience for the cuticle care and massage. This needs to be bumped up.

I Went for a fill today with gel polish. The quality of work makes up for the lack of friendliness I have experienced. No one has ever been outwardly rude but short or rushed I guess, anyhow. When I showed up they were swamped and had a 30 – 45 min. wait I asked the front greeter girl to take my name and we decided on a time I would come back, 1 hour later. I came back and she seated me right away which made me happy I decided to come back afterall. I have never had any problems with lifting or nail splits, breaking, or uneven filing ect. I will be back again! A fill with gel polish cost 25 $ + tip… Now thats pretty reasonable!

I went with my bff to celebrate winter break and get our finger nails done up with acrylic on Saturday. We planned on going at noon so naturally I made the appointment hours before 12. The lady on the phone so okay no problem, we came at 11:50 and they were really busy. There were people waiting in the chairs and I said I had an appointment for 12 and she said okay wait till 12. So we picked out our colors and my bff wanted matte black which they said they would do. 12 o clock rolls around and were still waiting and the lady at the desks says that they’re really backed up. Overall I waited an hour until she finally said I could go have a seat in the manicure chair while my bff already got seated 30 min ago. What was the point of making a noon appointment when I don’t get seated until one!!! My nail tech seemed a little rude when asked her if she did coffin nails and if she could file down my nail a little more and she just faintly nodded. Haft way through my nails she asked if I could let her go do a wax on someone waiting. So me not being rude, said yeah sure and she came back 10 min later and finished my nails. While she was away my bff came up to me saying she was done and that it took a while because her nail tech, who was a guy, messed up on two of her nails and the manager made him fix two other nails, without her saying anything, which were not the nails he messed up on. Also, her nail tech burned her with the drill to the point of her bleeding at her cuticle to which he wiped the blood and said «oops sorry.» He also made some nails longer than the other hand. He did a very poor job and should have maybe given her a discount for making her bleed. Her matte black also came out really poorly and I honestly feel really bad for taking her there. My nails turned out okay my pinky on my left hand is crooked and the edge on my natural nail is showing which means the acrylic tip didn’t fit my nail correctly. From far away or at a glance my nails look pretty and the color is great though the bottle was old and she had to put paint thinner in it. For 25 $ this acrylic manicure was good I guess. Just hope you luck out and don’t get the nightmare nail tech my bff did.

My favorite place in Visalia. Fast and friendly service! Very clean everything.
Must come here for your nails needs.
Will come back :)

Always great service. I always call ahead of time so little to no wait very friendly and clean

I’ve been going here since high school, and I’m now 25. They are the best in town. They can get busy on weekends or in the evenings, so I’d call ahead the make sure you’re not waiting forever. It can get annoying because the my will leave you soaking your little toes for a while 20 minutes sometimes before someone goes to you. It’s ok if you’re not in a hurry, but just FYI. And they are all very nice. The best of the best though is Vi. She’s the hottest woman there, you’ll know it’s her. She is very well put together and good at her job. My guy is jimmy. He does a good job Also. I’ve had him do gel manicures as well as acrylic ‘Kylie Jenner’ type nails once for a special occasion. He does both well. Also, he does a really nice job on my French pedi. I pay 25 $ for a gel manicure and about 25 for the French pedi. Well priced. I always feel happy when I leave. Once again, they are all good. Just tell them what you want and they do it. I learned not to criticize the work until I see the final product. They know what they’re doing here. This isn’t a place for kids who are going to be running around but I have seen a ton of kids both male and female there getting pedicures with the mom. Also I’ve seen a lot of men getting groomed too. Non judgement place for sure.

Love coming here! Always welcoming and friendly! Everyone knows my name and very attentive to my needs!

Called to see how long the wait was — lady said «come right now» so we did. Walked in and every spa chair was taken. Hmmm — ok so we asked how long for a brow wax. She directed us to rooms 1 and 2 — where we sat for 8 minutes (tables and rooms are so tiny you can’t lie fully extended). Brow waxes went ok. $ 10 for service. Pedicures were mediocre — technicians were rude — yammering in Vietnamese the entire time. Only stopping to inquire as to the whereabouts of my daughter’s mother (I’m right HERE)!! Don’t think we’ll return.

I had my doubts about this place because of the tulare location. Comes to find out they are not even affiliated. The gentleman did an awesome job on my nails, and he took his time. I was seated right away, which was a surprise because I have heard they get super busy. Can’t wait to come back for a pedi!

I went in for a pedicure they let me sit in one of those chairs and waited for 30 minutes! If they are busy they could tell me and I can come back later!

Needed my nails done last second so I came on Unilocal and looked at my options. I chose this place and read the reviews about Lisa. I made an appointment with her and was not disappointed! She did an amazing job, she earned herself a new customer!

This shop is great. Very friendly and affordable. They are a close group of co workers so it feels like a family shop. I have been going here 3 years now and I try other places when I’m in a hurry or not around the area and I always wish I had just waited to go here. It does get busy so try to make an appointment. They do except walk ins too though.

This place is AWESOME there work is GOOD QUALITY they are VERY FRIENDLY!!!
I have been getting my nails done at Happiness Nails for over 3 years and I drive from Kingsburg it’s worth the drive. There salon is VERY CLEAN!
Van the owner is very courtesy. Tina and V that do my nails and toes know what they are doing.
I always walk out HAPPY! :)

I’ve been coming here for a couple of months and usually have pretty good service. Tonight was a nightmare!!! My daughter and I were left for 40 minutes in chairs with ever cooling water as our feet turned to prunes!!! Finally I got my pedi started but my daughter sat there another 15 minutes before someone came over. They were very, very busy and I do understand but I’ve never had a salon person put my shoes on, then paint my toes. I not only have nail polish on my sandal but I was ushered out of the chair the second the top coat was applied. I was very disappointed

They do a great job here.
I just heard a lady complaining about making an appointment and they’re not on time. She could go somewhere that is prompt and pay 2 or 3 times the price and it take twice as long to do the same thing. #firstworldproblems

Worst experience ever!!!
I just want to start out by saying this was first experience here with waxing, I’ve been to this salon before and had gotten my nails done and that was ok, and saw that they offered Brazilian waxing and the girls at work were talking about us going and getting it done so I had suggested this place! My first big mistake was suggesting it because of how cheap it was, bad idea, I should have known then. But me and 2 other girls went to our appt and there were two rooms, one big nicer one and one small shitty one so obviously when it was my turn I got stuck with the smaller shitty room, and it wasn’t one lady doing the waxing we each had a different girl which was weird to me, so keep in mind I’m a cosmetology student so I’ve had proper training in sanitation and know what’s up, but anyway the lady I got was very very sweet and kind of timid but she had ABSOLUTELY no idea what she was doing she was fumbling through the entire process, didn’t know where anything was and started inspecting my downstairs with NO gloves on! Not until the end did I notice she never put any on either!!! So she starts with the top and it hurt (obviously) and proceeds and after she would remove the strip she would put pressure on the spot to relive pain, which is normal but all a while with NO GLOVES ON! And to top it all off I was bleeding a little too and still she was using skin to skin contact the entire time touching my skin where I was bleeding AND I noticed she double dipped the wax stick too! So as she starts getting further down the wax is dripping and she was missing spots, so it became stuck to the hair. So then she takes the baby oil on a cotton ball and starts digging into the skin at the spot with the wax and is tugging at it trying to remove it and that HURT! Then when she was done with that she adds more wax to the same oily spot and tries to wax the hair off but couldn’t get the wax to stick to the paper (duh!) and is going back at it with the baby oil and cotton ball so I’m like «ok I’m going to do it» so I’m rubbing the area covered in wax to try to remove it and she’s rubbing the upper area (with bare hands) with Neosporin and we’re both doing this on my downstairs at the same time and at this point I’m like ok, I’m done, I can’t do this anymore. So I tell her it just hurts too much I can’t finish! So I’m half way waxed And I get dressed and walk out and tell the lady I didn’t get the full treatment so she charged me less, thankfully or I would have had a fit! And as soon as I walked out the lady who waxed me went straight over to a lady at a pedi station and started working on her feet and NOT ONCE did I see her wash her hands!!! After touching my privates and my blood she went to work on this poor lady like nothing! Such a terrible, terrible experience that I will never be going back too! The other girls I was with said they didn’t have those problems and the ladies wore gloves, so I don’t know how I just got so freakin unlucky but it was bad and I hope to God I don’t get some type of infection!

Best pedi I’ve had in years! Im pick bevause i teach at a beaty school. I dont teach nsils but kniw about them and how most people dont do that goid. She took her time and was thorough. People have gotten so rushed and lazy. I had Rosy. I bought a 36 dollar spa pedi plus paid extra for nail art. I’ve tried a lot of places in visalia, tulare, la abd san diego. Rosy gave a relaxing massage and scrub and was careful and thoughtful. I usually try a lot of places due to not being satisfied but I will go back as long as I get this service again.

Vi does my nails… Great job, reasonable price… Fast work. Vi and Lisa both paint really pretty nail designs… Love the gel coat!!! Lily does excellent pedicures…
Sometimes there’s a wait because they are popular and get a lot if business. Just call in 30 mnutes in advance and they will be rest for you
They just got all new spa chairs… Comfy!

I should have read the reviews before coming here. Worst pedicure I have ever gotten. The guy had no clue what he was doing with regards to the treatment package I wanted. Come to find out it was his first day… I will never go back.
ADVICE FOR MANAGEMENT: Understandably, everyone has their first day on the job. As a manager, you should have been with him making sure he knew what he was doing BEFORE putting him on the floor to take customers. The only part done right was the toe nail polish.
