Like Kila K said, it is a very high end Japanese nail salon. I am a local here and wanted to get my nails done last minute and wanted to get it done by a Japanese manicurist since I know they are the top of their services. The salon is nice, quiet and clean. This lady did good job but like everyone says, it is very pricey. And if you want to go after 6pm, You need to make an appointment otherwise they are not open till 9pm. So keep in mind that.

High end beautiful boutique nail salon. Yuka had previously done my nails for my wedding and since then I won’t let anyone else do my nails for special events. On this occasion, I came here with my husband for his first pedicure ever! Hello callus remover circa dumb and dumber…(Kidding, not kidding) The ambiance and customer service are amazing, like being in a high end spa. I’ve had my fair share of pedis, and hands down(pun intended) the mani and pedi from this salon lasts the longest!!! No chips, streaks, or peeling even after beach days, working in the hospital(hand washing x100). I typically steer clear from manicures simply for the reason that I’m not gentle on my nails and they don’t ever last, but no joke this manicure lasted for over a month… not gel, just straight up regular manicure. the prices are steep, but you’re paying for quality. The girls do their best with English, better than other nail salons I’ve been to. At the end of the day, my hubby had the most beautiful toe nails I’ve ever seen… priceless! If you’re ever in Waikiki, if you’re getting married, or if you just want to splurge and be pampered then visit Yuka and the girls. You won’t be disappointed.

Great customer service — my girlfriend goes here a lot and she is always very happy with her nails after. She had me come down with her for a couples manicure… who knew such a thing existed?! Primarily Japanese speaking but they do try their best with English speaking customers. Parking is a bit of a problem, but that’s just Waikiki in general. From my perspective it is pretty expensive, but from what my girlfriend says, you’re paying for the genuine product(calgel) and the skill(she’s a Japanese native so I have to just take her word for it).

Very elegant high end Japanese nail salon. Nice décor, atmosphere, and people. Thorough and meticulous work. Love their taste, but sadly not very local friendly. No parking and extremely pricy. Gel service will easily exceed $ 100. Pricing is little confusing. They have prices listed right next to each sample, but it does not include the embellishments like rhinestones and studs. Be sure to ask them for the total price because they charge $ 1 and up for EACH rhinestone.
