Happy Nails and Lashes-Redmond

I'm visiting from out of town and needed a fill in and I'm so happy I found Happy Nails! Van was so gentle with all the filing and was extremely patient with me when I was deciding on my nail art and she even helped make useful suggestions when I was unsure myself. She was admiring her work at the end and I thought that was so sweet. Highly recommend Van and Happy Nails! 💅🏼

I wanted to give a better review as they did get me in to remove gel nail polish very last minute close to closing. However, this unfortunately was the worst nail experience I've ever had. They didn't soak my nails in acetone at all, they used some kind of "gel remover" which they brushed on and then it clearly didn't seem to work because they proceeded to manually scrape off the gel mechanically with a metal tool damaging my nails severely (pictures shown). Every nail has splintered blood blisters, my nail bed is miserably thin, you can see divots where the metal tool scraped my natural nail off, and my ruined nails keep catching and ripping down to the quick. All my fingers have become increasingly painful over the last few days and I will probably have to wait a month+ to recover from this.

I wanted to like this place so badly. they were super sweet at first. I made an appointment yesterday morning for today at 2pm. I come in 10 minutes early and think i’m getting started. within those 10 minutes, i was switched off to 3 different people. i asked for full set of acrylic with pink french tips and a coffin shape. super simple, not difficult at all. the shape seemed promising at first but it all went downhill from there. the third lady doing my nails rudely told me “can you relax..” i have tremors and severe anxiety. i can’t control my shaking. i let her continue and tried my best to calm down. they switched me off to a fourth person to paint my nails. she didn’t even really fix my nails into that coffin shape. they’re chunky and square. the paint was rushed and the french tips are uneven. i paid $75 for a simple french and couldn’t even get the time or the care to make them into what i truly asked for. i felt rushed and still paid full price, tip included. i was hoping they’d do a good job since they’re so close to my house, but it was an awful experience. they look like cheap dollar store press ons and i’m gonna have to pay even more to get them removed and fixed elsewhere.

Van did my nails and it was so relaxing, I almost fell asleep. There are lots of color options for various options (mani, shellac, dip, etc). I went with shellac and it came out great! I wish there were a little more glitter on the glittery nails, but still pretty nonetheless.

I highly recommend this nail salon in Redmond for everyone. I have been a loyal customer of this salon and observing their services since my first day I came there. This nail salon has been changed to a new owner. The services and products have been greatly impproved. They offer all type of nail and eye lashes services: regular, shellac, powder, fill, dip, etc. The staff is super friendly, thoughful, and professional. You will find a relaxing and peaceful vibe in here, which differentiates between the salon from most of the others in the local area and the ones that I have been too. All of the equipments are sanatized carefully. The staff is highly concentrate on their works to make sure their customers satisfied and happy. If you are living in the Redmond or nearby areas, I highly suggest to go visit the place.
