Reviews of Happy Nails & SPA
Ruby DeBellis
I wasn’t a “nail girl” until I found Happy Nails 💅 Got an ombe dip manicure with tips for my bridal shower and got so many compliments. Went back for the yellow sunflower design and switched to acrylic, which I loved, and just went back for a fill and change to the pastel colors. Never had a nail fall off or even chip. They’re also super quick—I’m always in and out in less than an hour. Prices are marginally higher than other places I’ve been, but it’s worth it for the quality and service. I’ve had a different nail tech every time and they’re all phenomenal. Love this place and couldn’t recommend them more!
Julia Jaffee
I went to Happy Nails for the first time last week and was not satisfied with my acrylic manicure as my nails began coming off within 3 days of having them done. Once the nail salon heard of my experience, they immediately reached out to ask about what happened and how they could help. They offered to redo my nails for me with gel dip as it would be the better option for my nails. I went and got my nails redone and I absolutely love them. The staff was very nice and accommodating.
Lindsey Yanchek
As someone who get my nails done regularly; I've never been more satisfied with the way they look. Trang was awesome. The entire establishment
has such a relaxed atmosphere & the professionalism - outstanding!
Makenzie Kauffman
I had a wonderful experience here today! I recently moved to the area and I will always go back to Happy Nails. Plus my nails look incredible. Great work and a fun, light-hearted environment to be in!
Rachael Jost
I just started getting gel manicures last year and had a couple bad experiences until I found Jennie Le at Happy Nails! They can always fit me in and Jennie is wonderful to work with. All of the employees are so helpful. And I can always count on Jennie to do a fantastic job!!
Savanah N Kyro
Philip did an amazing job on my nails today! He was quick, patient, friendly and had good suggestions when I was being indecisive on a color. He paid close attention to detail and my nails turned out beautifully 😍 Will definitely come back! …
Linda Ruiz
i had a dip powder set by Thuy Ho. She did very good and went really fast. whilst my nails were drying she provided a nice massage that really helped me relax. i definitely will come back and recommend to my friends.
Auriole Sieyonji
When I went there I was a little bit skeptical, though I saw the excellent reviews. But Brian did a great job. Very understanding, funny, nice and professional. He did a great job. Here’s a before and after of my nails.
Kelsey Hennessey
Thuy Ho is an artist, she always exceeds my expectations and is such a kind person. I only go to happy nails because they do such an amazing job and make sure I am happy with the services. I would highly recommend happy nails and Thuy Ho for anyone looking to step up their nail game😍 …
Hehehe xD
Nga Do was super professional and talented. She stayed way past closing time to finish the job and even asked if I wanted designs. They turned out beautiful and she even took really beautiful photos. Would highly recommend this place.
Sasha Bariffe
I like that I can book online. The service was good. They made my nails look better than the previous salon, bonus.
I don't like paying for services like this ahead of time, but did without complaints. The woman next to me paid after her service, so that was weird to me. Oh, bring cash or you're charged more.
Aidan McLoone
Jennie did my nails today and it was such a great time. We got in super quickly even though it was busy, and she made the experience super comfortable and easy! Will be back!
Elise Gryler
I got an acrylic full today and ngo Do did such an amazing job! The design is beautiful and she is so talented. My nails always last for so long when I come here, and it is overall a great experience
Rosie Gasperlin
I had such a great experience thanks to Trang Vo! :)
The day before I went to Happy Nails, I got my nails done at a different salon. I had gotten a dip manicure with white heart stamp/decals on each finger and let’s just say……I spent $90 only to have to go get them fixed elsewhere the following day. When I went to Happy Nails I showed the staff the crooked hearts, speckled/faded dip, & bubbles/warping in the top coat. Trang gave me all the books to pick out a new dip & immediately got to work removing the old dip. She did this quickly, but gently by gently buffing the top layers off with precision & soaking the last one in tinfoil. It went so quick! She was multi-tasking with other customers & was still so attentive to my nails. She even re-shaped my nails multiple times throughout the process to ensure my shape was maintained. I ended up picking out an even better shade of red dip & she applied the perfect amount of layers to make sure it was vibrant. I picked out new white chrome/holographic hearts & she placed them perfectly on 4 accent nails. She was so precise with her file down of the dip to make it a smooth surface to apply an even top coat to seal everything in. She gave me cuticle oil & a shoulder massage at the end while we waited to be sure everything was dry. Probably one of THEE best manicures I’ve ever had & it was a last minute walk in to fix a previous manicure. I’m beyond impressed by Trang’s skills & ability to execute such a difficult manicure. Thank you so much! You are very talented!
Nicole Lallier
Jennie Le did an AMAZING job with my manicure today. I cannot thank her for how professional and wonderful she is. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants beautifully done nails.
Jen Manirath
Nga Do did my nails and GURLLLLL so GOOD!! Love them and are exactly what I wanted. She was very patience with with me when I was trying to find a color and showed me them too, usually I feel anxious and regret the color later but she let me look and take my time. I really appreciate her and her work, will definitely come back. Pictures don’t do it justice, but literally got compliments right after I left, so good:)
Mariah Ranegan
I had a very pleasant experience at happy nails! I haven’t had my nails done in almost 3 years and Jennie treated me wonderfully! My nails are beautiful and I will definitely be coming back!
swati pandey
I took the powder dip service for my nails and loved the creativity by Khanh Pham! I showed her the picture from the web and she replicated that in no time. Thanks for making my first nail salon experience so well.
Jennifer Ordonez
I go here to get my nails and lash lifts. They are always super quick and the service is great. They always get the job done with amazing results. The picture is my most recent lash lift and I’ve gotten so many compliments. I always go here if I want something done right.
Katlin Quarnstrom
Love this place! I had Levin for my pedicure and Nga for my acrylic manicure and they were both lovely. They were thorough and gentle and nice. I will be going back!
Angela Farkash
This is my happy place. Need to find some pictures of my happy toes. I get gel dip. Whether ombre or solid they are the best. Only place I go for my Pedi's. The salon is clean, the people are friendly. 5 stars. 💜🌻 …
Deshann Sanchez
Did my first Coffin Style nails with Khanh (manager). She did a fantastic job and gave me tips about what shapes would work well with my nails after this! Highly recommend! 😁💅 …
Jessica Dickey
Had a great experience with Trang getting a dip full set yesterday! I was super early to my appointment and she took me right away and did a beautiful job with my nails. Thanks again!
Dev G
Nga Do made it work!!!! I came in with a picture of my inspiration and a poorly drawn idea of what I wanted. I got these acrylic fill-ins with design & colors done on May 28th and it lasted me until June 21st!
Carlee Dather
I had Trang Vo today and she did an amazing job with my nails,plus she works so quickly which was great considering the details she was able to accomplish! I always come here and do gel manicure on acrylic- best nails in Saint Paul!
Julia Hogan
I got my first mani/pedi since covid began here!
My pedicure turned out perfectly, Hang Ho did an amazing job! She is very gentle and does amazing work, she knows what she’s doing. Unfortunately I got a different tech for my manicure. My manicure turned out bubbly, clumpy, and thick. I had the gel on for about five hours before it began to peel on my thumb (pictured).
I called to see if I could get them fixed, and the manager redid my whole set.
bitaniya gebrekiristos
Every time i’ve come to happy nails I’ve had such an amazing experience. This time a sweet nice lady named Nga Do did my nails and she did such an amazing job! Im more than pleased with my nails and I would recommend going to Nga Do to get your nails done!
S h e i l a C r u z
You get what you pay for . Got acrylic nail set in a arrow shape with gel polish & matte. They know what they are doing!
Hanna Helms
A few heads up:
Masks are required which
It wasn’t shared prior to me going and I made an appointment over the phone. They charge $1 for masks. It’s prepay which I don’t have a problem with, but again wasn’t shared or posted on website.
My tech was aggressive with my hands and fingers. I got cut by the drill as well. the full set was okay I guess. I was only shown 3 gel color books but I saw probably 7 more books of colors. After the top coat was on, my tech just walked away (I paid cash and she didn’t give me change). She also started cutting her own nails while doing mine???
Jessica Wark
They always do such a great job with my nails. They take time to make it perfect. There are days where there is a wait, but they do a really good job with working fast, but also doing an amazing job. If you have to wait in line it's definitely worth the wait
Lauren Virta
Trang Vo was wonderful!! She did my nails better than I thought they’d be and was quick too! Will definitely come back in!
Greta Regan
Philip Vo did my nails and was so nice and listened really well. I LOVE how they turned out, they’re my favorite nails I e ever gotten.
Shantelle Hohnadel
I’ve always had a great experience at Happy Nails. Khanh Pham is wonderful and has given me the best service and most beautiful nails. Thank you thank you!!
Montana Macmillan
First time, extremely impressed! Great staff! Friendly and helpful. High quality! Made sure the nails were done to MY liking! And it was comfortable waiting for the end result. I dont live around the area but willing to make an appointment everytime I'm around 100% Thanks again Happy Nails Staff ♡ I reccomend everyone make at least one appointment and try out your experience here.
Valerie Huynh
Lan Do did my manicure and huyen Nguyen did my pedicure. They both did an amazing job-couldn’t be happier with my nails!
Shannon Burns
I had a great experience at happy nails! It was my first time visiting and the staff was kind , prompt and talented. Make sure to bring a mask if you visit! I will definitely be back!
ryn tin

I absolutely love Happy Nails! Khan is AMAZING!!!She pays attention to all of the small details, is kind, caring and very professional. She always does my nails exactly how I like them. I highly recommend this place.
Folk Ultra
My nail game needed some serious work, and Nga Do was AMAZING at the craft! It was my first time going in to get my nails done ever and I couldn't have picked a better place. Quick, precise, and delicate with my hands. I'll DEFINITELY be going back!!
San Allen
I like the nails as well as the design she went above and beyond to make sure she did a great job. Stop in and ask for Trang Vo
Shi Almont
P.C. (the nail tech who did my gel manicure) was absolutely wonderful. She not only did a lovely job on my nails, but she was so pleasant and fun to talk to. Definitely recommend!!
Sara Cook
Just got a gel mani & pedi in less than an HOUR! They did both at the same time and did amazing! Highly recommend. Clean and staff were great! Way to go happy nails! You’re doing it right!
Sarah
Nice place, friendly people, and they did a good job on my nails. Only issue is that they charged my card, didn't have me sign the receipt, and didn't give me a copy of it either. Had to go on to my cards website to make sure I was charged correctly. Also, no way to tip if I don't get the slip to sign, and I wanted to give them one. I'll probably go back again when I'm in the area.
Tiffany Dreher
I haven't gotten my nails done in many years, and with my frustration that they constantly break during the school year for me, I decided to try getting a full set. Khanh was wonderful in answering my questions, making recommendations, and explained every step as she went. My nails turned out beautifully. The space was well lit and clean, and the energy was friendly and social. I will be back to see Khanh in three weeks for my fills!
Hillary Lancaster
I started going to Happy Nails at the beginning of 2017, and with the exception of things being shut down during COVID, I went there every three weeks for almost six years. I recently moved to Boston, and have yet to find a place that does the caliber of work that the crew at Happy Nails does - especially Nga Do. You should definitely make these folks your go to in Saint Paul, I miss them so much.
Nasra I
Got my nails done a few times here (as a walk-in) and received immaculate service every time. The salon is kept in perfectly clean order and both my nail techs, Lan Do and Anh Tran, paid great attention to my detail oriented nail designs. I first went here with a simple picture and received gorgeous nails every time after, despite being a nervous novice to the nail world. What really brought me back to this place was the persistence and patience I received from Lan Do when I first came in. She educated and advised me on how it all works, so I could have a better idea of what I would like. I LOVED the turn out. My pedicure, with gel, lasted weeks and my dip manicure did not budge for an impressive amount of time as well! My nails do grow far too fast, but it is not an issue up-keeping them here when I have a moment, as the salon is beyond flexible. As a student and healthcare worker, it is difficult to keep beautifully intact nails and have time to regularly get them maintained, so it means the world to me that I am treated with great care whenever I walk in. Lan Do and Anh Tran, and as I have seen with the other nail techs here, provide a personalized awareness and service catered specifically to each client they serve with great care. They really do collaborate and work together to make sure a trip to the salon is beyond worth it! I am grateful for the wonderful talent that moves mountains to pamper and relieve us of stress. If you are considering this place, 10/10 go for it! They’ll make you a whole nail addict.
Kate Gapp
Honestly I think anyone who has been to multiple nail salons knows what you get. The service is usually good but inconsistent. Like many salons, when they get busy they will try to fit you in even if it means a long wait or rushing service. Also it’s a strange detail but I find their chairs are a little uncomfortable. Also in all, it’s about the same as I’ve been anywhere else! (I usually get a dip manicure)
Aaliyah Dumoulin
Trang Vo was really attentive to the shape and style I wanted. She asked me multiple times if everything was okay and how I wanted it, she was very respectful as well. Probably the best nails I’ve gotten!
Elizabeth Bartley
I got gel nails done on a Thursday at lunch time and by Friday evening they were chipping at the tips.
Whenever I have gotten powder dip here it's lasted well for me, but the powder nail is too thick for what I wanted this time so I went with Gel.
Anne Clark
My absolute favorite nail salon. Khan Pham is the BEST! In and out with a full dip manicure in 45 mins, and the best quality I have ever had! They’ve got 4 books of dip colors and are adding constantly. There is a discount for paying in cash.
Jesmine Rattler
Trang Vo did an amazing job with my lashes. Definitely my favorite lash tech. Nails done by Philip and he's amazing. Rhey are nice, always have tome and do phenomenal work!
Cynthia Faber
Trang Vo did an amazing job!! It was my first time here and I’ll definitely be coming back!!
Jamila Joiner
Lan Do did a PHENOMENAL job on my dip manicure. The service was excellent and they were very attentive to my nails. They were even able to do the exact design that I had chosen. My natural nails grow very long and Lan Do took very good care to not break them and gently manicure them.
Jamesha Montgomery-Murrell
Had the best experience with thuy ho she was the bet nail tech ever I was so happy my nails have never looked this good in all the years I've been getting them done . My husband was also satisfied with how he was treated while he waited for me an vey satisfied with my nails he tipped thuy for her picture perfect work
Casey McNabb
I had an amazing experience here. The higher price reflects their quality and I will definitely be back. They clearly take pride in their work and will go above and beyond to make customers happy.
Tsion Yifru
Trang VO did a great job with my nails. Love them!
Addy Tabbutt
I recently moved to Saint Paul from Boston and had the hardest time finding a nail salon that I actually liked, until I came here. Everyone is so fantastic and incredible at what they do.
Today I went in for birthday nails and a pedi. Lan Do did my pedicure and was absolutely fantastic! I got a long leg and foot massage with it, that was just what I needed! The hot rocks felt amazing after all this frigid weather we've been having. Anh Le did my dip nails and as always, they turned out absolutely fantastic! Thanks Lan Do, Anh Le and thanks Happy Nails!!

I won't go to another nail shop. I was looking for a place that could keep me instragram ready, and I found that at happy nails. They have the biggest selection of dip colors . They fix my broken nails for free and that massage always is q plus. It is usually busy but they greet you immediately and get you in quickly .
Jonelle Patton
Trang Vo did a great job on my ombré dip powder nails. I recommend her! I will be back. Thank you Trang!
Molly Wessling
I go here for a dip manicure every few weeks and I am always seated right away. I see Nga Do and she takes great care of me every time! She is fast and makes sure that she doesn’t skip any steps. She is very detailed and I love my nails from her every single time!
Kaye Lockrem
Great service by Khanh - professional, quick and well done! I did an ombre dip manicure and she was done in under an hour - including a quick neck massage. Can't wait to go back!
Aishia' C
Trang Vo was my mail tech and she was Amazing! She was very attentive and professional! This was my first time here but I’ll definitely be back!
arm1xn
nga do did an amazing job on my nails. definitely recommend this place
Samantha Hebel
Above and beyond expectations! A well-kept salon with friendly staff. Great experience booking my appointment from their website. I chose the organic dip powder manicure, which I've had done once before at a different salon: my mani here was better than my last one. My manicurist (Nga Do) was friendly, paid extra attention to filing and shaping, and threw in a shoulder massage while my nails dried at the end. I was really stuck on the chrome trend but didn't want acrylics or gel, so she tried chrome acrylic on top of the dip mani as an accent nail and it turned out great. I will be coming back!
Update: The chrome peeled off the next day, but the dip powder nail underneath it was still perfect. Just had to throw on a clear coat of polish.
Dezaria Shirley
Trang vo offered great service and is really good with doing nails and brows she made me feel comfortable and went quick but did very good
Emma Dimond
Very friendly and was able to do exactly what I asked for! Love my nails!! They have sooo many colors to choose from and also provide a bunch of other services as well
Joanne Reeck
Mai did a fantastic job on my Ice Dancer pedicure! And her calf massage was incredible. 5 Stars!!!!
Kiera Faye
I was never interested in getting my nails done until I tried dipping powder at Happy Nails! The nail techs are all so talented and nice. I always get the best quality, with great attention to detail, and with hardly any waiting (even though I usually walk in without an appointment)! The dip manicure holds up to every challenge for weeks. My nails have never been so long and looked so good!
Yadny Martins
This places can be described in two words: overbooking and disorganized.
I was recommended by my friend who apparently always come here and loves this place. I made an online appt on their website which by the way was very overwhelming with information but somehow I managed to do it. I was told by my friend that the best nail tech was Loan so I wanted to make sure i would have her when I come in, so right after making the appointment with her I contacted them on Facebook to double check that. I also was sold on their eye lash extension service which Loan also does it beautifully, so I told them I was coming in earlier to get that done before my nails. Everything was apparently fine until I walked in and got myself inside this loud, extremely busy and disorganized place. The manager Thuy Ho was at the front desk and she put me on table 10. 7 minutes later she shows up and start doing my nails. I asked about loan and why she wasn’t doing my nails and she tells me she has someone else with her and they didn’t want me to wait. I was very upset but I needed to get my nails done so I let it go. I got up to wash my hands and Loan is right behind me about to start with a new client. This was not even 5 minutes after we began. I was furious at that point but I had already started so I let it go again. The manager keeps the phone next to her and every time it rings, SHE ANSWERS. She literally stops what she is doing and get the calls. She got up 4 times to write names down on her agenda and one of those times she dropped my $1200 bag on the floor 😫!!! I mean come on!!! The floor was nasty dirty as well as the mani table, and on top of all that she is rushing off to finish my nails and she cut me!!!! The place is packed and there is a line of people waiting and I understand it’s the holidays and such, but nothing justify getting my nails poorly done. You will be able to see on the pictures. I finished my nails and asked about my lashes and they said: you will have to wait 40 minutes until Loan is done to start your lashes or in 30 minutes I can get you a different person. I was so fed up with them I left. I tip her 20% like I always do and she didn’t even said thank you. She looked at the cash, grabbed and left to the next client. To be honest I am not sure if I will come back to give this place a second chance! I wanted to maybe actually get LOAN to do my nails but idk. I definitely won’t recommend it until I can prove myself wrong
PS: an acrylic fill with no shaping, no cutting, no design, no nothing was $42.
Milena Alvarracin
Trang Vo makes a great job with my nails. I love it!!
Kelsey Roenau
YES!!! I've left a lot of nail reviews and they should all be deleted now. I have been to this salon twice and had KHANH do my nails both times (I requested her the second time.) - she is amazing so bring her a tip in CASH! Seriously, her work is the most perfect I've ever had and shes so detailed and careful. I'm super picky and do my own gel polish at home, usually because I am never happy with how salons do it. Khanh did a dip powder mani for me both times and they are stunning, I am really impressed. She is super sweet and kind and I hope I can go to her forever! The bar has been seriously raised by her work and now I finally have those nails that you see on instagram, perfectly shaped, pretty and no sloppy work!!!! I love her! The dip mani was $47 if you pay with a card, and bring cash to tip.
Molly Cashman
Trang Vo was great! Love my nails!
Anne Twohy
Jennie was amazing! She took time to help pick out colors, and was meticulous with shaping! Thanks, Happy Nails for another wonderful set!
Harlan Lee
Lan did an absolutely BEAUTIFUL job on my nails today! It's been a while since I've gotten my nails done and for my first time back she knocked it out of the park. Thank you so so much.
The new remodel is fantastic as well, cant wait to be back!
Ahlam Ebrahim
Excellent place! I was a walk-in and wanted to get a manicure and pedicure. Trang vu did my gel manicure, and she was very friendly and did very nice work. I will definitely be going back. The experience was great and the people were very nice. My nails look great!
Savanna Shoultz
I’ve been going here since elementary and it just keeps getting better and better. Everyone I know goes here and it is the best place. Tien Ly did my nails and she was so gentle and did amazing. Highly recommend this place!
Mariko Akimoto
This was by far the BEST manicure I’ve ever gotten Khanh was amazing and took wonderful care of me. I will always come here for nails now!! ❤️❤️❤️
Annalee Brown
Happy Nails is our new favorite nail salon! I like you can schedule appointments online or by calling, with great hours too. The salon is large, clean and COVID SAFE (precautions like frequent hand washing/cleaning, masking and social distancing). The staff are friendly, talented and professional. Everyone took great care of us and we will defiantly be back. I would highly recommend Happy Nails 😃
Sage Davis
Edit: I went back to Happy Nails and Spa after the business owner or manager replied to the review and told me to come back to get my nails fixed. Maeve did my nails this time, she was very precise, neat, gentle, and kind. She did them perfectly! The pink I had originally chosen is so pretty now, my nails looked like glass. I love the redo. I changed my review from 1 star to 4 only because I had to return to get them done right. When gel color is applied sloppily, they do not last as long, by the time I went back, which was 5 days later, 7 of my fingernails didn't even have any polish anymore. I am happy that I had them fixed. I feel like I received my money's worth now. Thank you.
My nails are so ugly. The polish on my nails was applied uneven and sloppy. The color was supposed to be a transparent natural pink but she applied so many thick uneven coats that is no longer transparent but a pale pink that makes my skin looked washed out and dull. There's a big clump on the corner of my thumb. It's just terrible. You can see jagged edges on the tips of my nails. They look bad. I haven't had my nails done in 9 months I thought I would treat mysel but honestly wished I'd have kept my money. Also, my toenail smudged even though I had that done first. I am sad & disappointed.
maria vidal
Nam Nguyen is very professional in what she does. I’ve been getting my lash extensions done by her for about a year now. She also does a great job doing pedicures . She makes sure you are satisfied with her work before you leave. I highly recommend her! I never knew about the salon Happy Nails until i found out Nam relocated . I like the way Happy Nails operate. Very professional and clean . I recommend this place .
Katherine Yang
I loved their service. I was looking for a lasting min wedding nail manicured and they took me and my sister. No rush or anything- They did a great job.
simone young
Trang vo did a wonderful job on my nails!! She’s extremely nice & her patience is “EVERYTHING” I will be back soon!🥰 …
KellyAna Ferreira
Lan Do did my nails so nice and she was very kind. The staff were really friendly even though I was there right before closing. It took about an hour to do the full set which is very fast compared to other places. Definitely recommend!
Jade Jones
Trang Vo and Huyen Nguyen are are wonderful! They did great work on my hands and feet!
Dontoria Ivy
Thi Nguyen did such an excellent job! They were very professional here. They treated us as equals and they took care of us very thoroughly. I refer anyone to this place if you want to have a luxurious fun loving professional experience
Kyala Cherney
Just had my nails done for the time on a long time. My nail tech Lan Nguyen was amazing she took her time she didn't rush, was cautious with the drill bits around my cuticles and she double-checked to make sure everything was the same length and shape. Will definitely recommend to my friends and others.
Kizzy Clark
Trang Vo, Love this shop.I use to pass by all the time to day I have it a try an I loved it. My nails are perfect an brows are perfect.I recommend any one to come in an give a try. You will not regret it.
Lindsey Goble
Amazing service. Got right In and my nails look AMAZING and she was quick. I don’t like sitting for hours. This was a great experience thank you!
Allison Rogers
Jennie did a great job on my nails yesterday! I had a broken nail with dip powder that hurt really badly when I came in and was worried about how sensitive it would be getting the existing polish off. She noticed right away, glued it back together and was super gentle so it was not an issue! Dip manicure always turns out great!
S.A. H
Trang Vo, Philip, and Maeve everyone is so welcoming and professional. All three did a wonderful job on my pedi, mani, and waxing. My eyebrows are perfect again thank you. I will definitely come back.
Jenny Vazquez
Trang Vo did my nails today and did and amazing job. Love them, highly recommend.
Lynn Wadsworth
I've used this nail salon for several years And although the price has gone up significantly, I think they do a very good job. It seems clean and well run.
Amy
Trang did my nails and I’m in love with them! She made sure I was completely satisfied with each color before moving on to the next! She really listened to my ideas and didn’t make me feel like I was being rushed. My experience was amazing! Can’t wait to be back!

Thuyh Ho* I think I spell her name wrong* is the best nails technician ever. She was so sweet, nice and friendly. She did an amazing job. I went to many nails salons but none of them did me good like what Ho did to my nails. When I got to the place I found out that I can’t tip the technician through my debit card/ credit card and I felt so bad because I couldn’t tip her. She was so cool about it and she said “ it’s okay, next time “. I felt so guilty for not having cash on me, I’m very sorry Ho.I will definitely go back to Happy Nail again and only do it with Ho. Thank you so much Ho for making my nails looks alive again.

Philip Vo did amazing on my customized nails! He was super fast and did a clean job.
Christina Petsoulis
I have been going to Happy Nails for over a year now and have never been disappointed. All the nail techs work hard to please you and get you exactly what you're looking for. I especially love seeing Trang, Nga and Phillip; they have great attention to detail and always get me the most perfect, beautiful, and long-lasting nails :). Nga did the ones pictured
Mikaile Hurley
Trang Vo did an fantastic job!! It was my first time here so I am officially a regular customer! Would definitely recommend this nail salon to anyone looking for great quality !
Kristine Volz
I have been going here for years and it is the best! Lan Nguyen did an ombré dip powder manicure for my wedding and they are perfect! Always great service and friendly technicians! Be sure to bring cash to tip as you can’t via credit card!
Kayla
Expensive for a pedicure. I got regular polish and they layered it on so thick with no light to dry that it was smudged an hour later.
Angie Grissom
As always Trang is the best nail tech ever!! Five star for her!!
Daniel Fink
Great pedicure and calf massage. Highly recommend. Mai did a wonderful job :-D
Breeanna Young
Thuoy is amazing!!!! I get my lashes & nails done w/ her. Highly recommend happy nails & her specifically. Place is clean, they make you wash your hands upon entering. Masks required. Friendly staff. I love that I can book my appt online & I always get taken care of ON TIME!!!!!! Happy nails has my business.
Korra Ringgenberg
I went in with a friend yesterday to get a full set, the process was quick and easy. They make you wash your hands before you do anything, which is very nice especially nowadays. I left yesterday with the color that didn't quite match what I picked and there were some minor mistakes (there was a brush hair stick in our of the polished nails that I didn't catch until I got home), I decided to call the up and Nga Do remembered me and warmly welcomed me to go back in for a fix.
I went back in today and initially wasn't going to raise the concern that the color I picked didn't quite match because it's translucent, so what's shown on the color chart isn't reflective of what it would look like on your nails unless you do a base solid color. I decided to speak up anyway (which I should've done the day before), and they redid all the colors on my nails for FREE, no extra charge. I was very appreciative of that because I was expecting to have to pay because I didn't speak up the day before so it was sorta my fault. They were really busy too but still squeezed me in last minute.
To me, it shows that this place is professional and cares about their customers. I would highly recommend this place! If you find something you don't like, just speak up and they'll address it for you, ideally that same day unlike me hahaha. Thank you Happy Nails! I'm now perfectly happy with my nails for sure.
Daisy Ruano
I had such a great experience because of Phil! I had not gotten my nails in a very long time and was very satisfied of the job that Phil did. He can do it all, designs, long acrylic or short. My new go to nail salon.
Thank you Phil :)
Emi J
This place is a machine! They get so busy, but worth it. Forgive my gnarly bartender hands, but it's worth a pic. If you want dip powder done, Loan is the best! Never too thick, the edges are clean, and they always look PERFECT ❤ She is magical
Tessa Nowlan
Been coming here since 2019 for pedicures and I’ve always left satisfied!
Taryn Watson
I love happy nails! All the staff is wonderful- especially Thuy! She always does a wonderful job on my nails. Salon is very clean and they have a great selection of colors and designs!
Davonne Cottrell
I love Happy Nails!!! The did a wonderful job on my nails! Trang Vo is wonderful!!
TLS TLS
I have to amend my review. They do a great job on nails. However, every time I come I make an appointment before hand and it never matters. People that don't have appointments get seen before me and/or I have to wait 25 mins minimum. I've had to leave before because they made me wait too long and I had something to get to. My advice is make sure you have a lot of time if you come here.
Rachel E
Had a great experience with Trang Vo!
Selah Hennesy
Lots of options for dip powder nails! They are a lot thinner than traditional acrylics but just as strong! My nails looked exactly the same as i got them two weeks later.
Victor Cole
Got in without an appointment. Friendly, efficient, and affordable. Clean, aesthetically detailed nicely. Titi was super welcoming to everyone. Next time I'll make a plan for a more deluxe experience... real spa day!
Brittney Van Risseghem
Wow ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I can not thank Philip enough for doing an amazing job on my nails! He was so patient and thorough. My nails look better than the picture I showed him. Highly recommend!
Jamie Johnson
Amazing design!! Trang Vo did an awesome job!!
Dinky G
Jennie did an Amazing job on my pedicure, I'm a big guy and hadn't been to get a pedicure in a while, I left feeling great she took her time and made sure I was very relaxed and satisfied. I will definitely be back soon !!!
Kristin Ingram
Trang did my nails and she was so efficient and gave me exactly what I was looking for and more!! I am never disappointed anytime I come here! Very professional and the quality exceeds any nails salon in Saint Paul!! Come check this place out! Ask for Trang!! She will not disappoint!!
Kemry Gett
Thuy Ho always does a phenomenal job with my nails. I typically get acrylic nails and every time they have stayed on for at least 4 weeks no problem and I have received numerous compliments on design and details. I will definitely continue coming back!
Trisha Johnson
T.H. Is amazing! She gets my shape perfect every time, and is super quick for such amazing quality. 10/10 would recommend her every time!
megan cardenas
Pretty expensive and customer service can be iffy, but they do nails and pedicures better than anywhere else I’ve been.
Amy Barrett
Hong did a beautiful job on my nails. She took her time shaping them and applying the gel polish. I love the way they look! I think the polish number was i108 - bagota blackberry
Kyla Sharp
Trang Vo did an awesome job!!! Very good customer service great atmosphere 👍 …
Hong
Have been here a lot of times! Definitely the best nail place in the city. Highly recommend! Anh and Jennie are wonderful and very professional!!
Markie Mitchell
I made an appointment at 2pm and they didn’t start until 2:35pm. So I was pretty annoyed but she did a good job on my nails.
Lindsay Munro
Experience was fine, the person who did my pedicure cut my toenail in a way that caused me to have an ingrown nail which still hurts several days later. So that's great. Otherwise it was fine. Don't waste your money on the higher priced services though, I paid $12 more for almost the exact same service my friend got. Definitely just go for the SPA pedicure.
Lilly Soderberg
Trang Yo did an amazing job! I will definitely be coming back. So nice and always checked in with me.
Kadarah Jackson
I went in to get a gel manicure and a facial on my birthday. This was my first experience at happy nails and I was absolutely impressed with their cleanliness of the place and how they valued the health and safety of their clients. Trang Vo did an AMAZING job on my gel powder manicure, helped me with recommendations and really made sure I was taken care of!! I could tell that they really cared about their clients! The facial was absolutely fantastic. I did a 60 min one. They also offer 25 min ones at a great price! They do it all, mani, pedi, gel, waxing, facials, eyelashes, you name it! I will definitely be back!!!
Anna Flowers
Great service by Thuy Ho. If it wasn't for her, the rating wouldn't be as high. She helped me with my gift card issue then provided friendly and great work. Buying a gift card online may be an issue as it was for me. I waited for around 20-30min before someone was able to address the issue. I totally recommend Thuy Ho since she was the only one who tried to help me when I was ready to give up.
Anogh Zaman
UPDATE: They contacted me ASAP and were so sweet and understanding. I am completely blown away by the hospitatlity and the willingness to co operate. I will be posting more updates as it foes on
I went there cause the reviews seemed great. It's slightly more expensive than other nearby places but I am more than happy to pay extra for a place that treats its employees and customers well.
Sadly the experience was not great. I tried to clarify on several occasions that I wanted glitter ombre tips. When discussing, the nail artist dismissed the receptionist trying to tell me the price and said he "got it". Spoilers he don't got it. He told me a price that was 30$ less than what it actually was. But you know these things happen so I brushes it off and continued.
He clearly wasn't listening to me either because instead of giving me glitter tips, he did a white ombre. When I pointed it out, he panicked and another nail artist joined him in filing off the white tips and putting on the correct glitter tips. Precision and care were not top of their list at the moment as they opted for speed and I've never felt my nails heat up so much. They were near closing and just needed me gone. Which is understandable. I still left the guy a tip cause I'm weak and can't do confrontation.
After getting home and looking at my nails, I found an inch gap between the tips and my natural nails. He didn't even properly glue them down. Even my non confrontational self had enough and I emailed them to describe the situation. They said to call and I've tried to do so many times with no response. Just save your money and go somewhere else.
Jasmine Branum
I've been going to Happy Nails on and off for over 5 years. Great staff and love how friendly everyone is. I have never had a problem with my nails lifting, chipping, or breaking. The only reason why I took off a star is that they don't take Discover and even when you have an appointment scheduled you will be waiting an additional 20 minutes, at minimum. Truly, it's a great experience and Happy Nails is worth having your business!
Mandi Schroeder
They renovated the whole inside. Every single nail tech is AWESOME. they hand paint stuff for me all the time. My nails LITERALLY look like photos you Google search
Marin Ryan
Levin did a great job and suggested a nice complement color for my pedicure!
doma who?
first time coming here and Nga Do did amazing!! I love my nails a lot 🖤 …
Sonja Anderson
It was my first time there and my first time getting a gel manicure done. The technician explained the different types of manicures and what the benefits were. I walked in just planning to get a regular manicure, but am so glad I went with gel. They are durable and beautiful! I feel like it’s a fun place to go once or twice a month to treat myself to something fun. Thanks, Happy Nails! I’ll definitely be back!!
chinjeezy
Thuy Ho did a perfect job on my nails! I came in with white out nails from another salon and she perfected my dipped nail request. She was quick, efficient, and detailed. For dipped nails, the price is super reasonable.
I left so happy, I wanted to give Thuy Ho a hug. Thank you!
Alethea W
They do great precise work and are friendly. Discount if you pay in cash. Lots of options. Trang is an excellent nail tech!
Sydney Warch
Khanh Pham was absolutely amazing! Showed her a design and she did it wonderfully for my graduation nails. I have been going here for years and they are always very punctual, kind, and do amazing nails.
Gwen Paguyo
Trang Vo was amazing my nails look so good!! Definitely coming back here💗 …
Layla McCall
Khanh Pham is a phenomenal Nail tech! I have been here a few times now & will continue to come back. Wether it's a relaxing spa day or days where I am in a rush...Khanh is still able to get me in & out very quickly! & My nails always come out great! 💛 …
Jo San
A simple but beautiful gel set; I certainly left with happy nails. Levin Tong did amazing work!
Audra Brandt
Happy Nails always does a great job for my gel nails. I LOVE my comfortable, well done pedicure as NOW is the time to show the toes!🙏❤️ …
Molly Tschida
I stumbled across this nail salon by accident. I was spending so much money previously on gel polish which kept peeling within a few days. They discussed getting “dip” nail and now I’ll never go back to gel. It’s been over 2 weeks and my nails haven’t chipped at all! Ngo Do did an awesome job. Very professional and efficient. They even give you a shoulder massage at the end just because...! Very impressed by this salon. They were crazy busy too so they must be doing something right!! I’ll definitely be back soon!!!
Kayla Staples
By far the best pedicure I’ve gotten done. Khanh did an amazing job. She really took her time and did an amazing job on my nails. They were all ready for me at the time of my appointment and were very professional. Definitely going back!
Fam Fam
The manager definitely did an amazing job on my dipped nails but my friend’s nails weren’t great. Her French tips were quite sloppy and the lines weren’t clean. For the price, which a pedicure and manicure can easily cost over $110 without tips, we expected the experience to be better. The gel pedicure itself was $69.00 and it felt rushed (30mins for the massage AND painting). They’re fast but if you came for the experience, it’s not here.
Ricale Woods
My nails & toes are amazing but should be laced with diamonds as much as they charge. Very expensive $42 for a fill with regular polish gee🤑. …
Maddy Overby
Trang Vo did an AMAZING job and made my nails absolutely perfect, the most beautiful manicure I’ve ever had (French dipping powder on natural nails). Thank you, Happy Nails!!!
Diana M.
It was my first time there and it was the first salon where they had great customer service and actually do good on your nails. Other places I’ve been to before either cut me when drilling or the shape didn’t look what I specifically asked for. One thing I don’t like is the pricing. I got a really simple acrylic set, purple, tapered square, with some diamonds on my ring fingers and that costed basically $60 so it wasn’t worth it for the price but very great customer service. Either way I’m happy with my nails just not the price.
Mom To 5
Fabulous experience!!!! Best pedicure ever.!! Total princess treatment.
Then my dip manicure ended up to be the most beautiful manicure I have ever received. Definitely will be back!! Top notch. Number one. A ++++++ ‼️
Fawn Zinter
They were professional and fast. Both my daughter and I were in and out in about an hour. I was pleased at first but was disappointed when I looked closer because he put a lot of acrylic on and in about 1.5 weeks my nails began to lift (in the back) and even though I requested my Nails to be thinner, the acrylic ended up being pretty thick. I would however consider giving them another chance.
Monique Baker
Very nice and attentive. My nail technician Lan Do did a great job with my gel pedicure. I really appreciated her making sure I liked the color on me before she continued. Overall great experience and awesome massages.
Kayla Seymour
Went about a month ago to Happy Nails and loved it! The website let you book a specific appointment which ensures they are maintaining and aware of their capacity and only able to accommodate walk-ins if it works but also nice they consider appointments as a priority. The receptionist was super nice, and I was impressed with their health and safety routine and diligence presented right away. Payment was easy and the prices are clear and upfront. I was able to Venmo a tip to my nail technician (Hong Nguyen-I recommend!) which was very convenient! The space is clean, they have stations spaced out and the atmosphere is calm and inviting. I chose a gel pedicure and I still don’t have any chip on the color from my 1-5-21 appointment! Will definitely be using this place again and look forward to trying their other services!
Marie Smith
I just went in to get a pedicure and came out with an overlay, a massage, and clarity. So as I said I went in to get a pedicure. The receptionist was very inviting and laid back. She had other people behind me but she focused her attention on the current customer and made sure they were fully aware of the procedures they wanted. Now far as my nail technician Khanh Pham she was very detailed and informative on how I wanted to execute my vision on how I wanted my toes and nails done. I also was just telling her about my day and how I wasn't have much luck on finding a massage place on short notice. So she again was very informative on the different type of pedicures. So she recommended the hot stone treatment. First time but it was amazing. I could feel the toxic energy being released. Far as my nails. As she recommended a more subtle color for the natural look I was trying to achieve. I noticed someone else receiving a shoulder back massage. So I politely inquired about the cost difference on that service and she said I picked out the package I felt you needed to match what you were looking for today. So long story short. I ended up getting a shoulder massage as well. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Tami Smith
Today was my first time going to Happy Nails! It was an amazing experience. Hanh did my pedicure and she did an amazing job, was very attentive to detail. I had Diem to my manicure and she did an amazing job, was also very attentive to detail. I will definitely be going back. The staff was very friendly. I also loved the colors they had to choose from for gel.
Kami Haider
My nail technician was Khanh and she did an absolutely wonderful job on my nails. I am not one to get manicures very often as I work in the fitness industry, but she took the time to educate me on the various types of dips, powders, and acrylics that are offered. I have always guessed on what I should get and she was the first one to inform me on the difference between each. Furthermore, her work was beautiful. I will be going back!
Angie Muue
Each time I come to Happy Nails it’s always a great experience. Lan Do recently did my manicure and it was perfect! She took her time to ensure my nails were exactly how I wanted and was very nice. I would highly recommend!
Syril McNally
I am in LOVE with my nails! Thuy did such a fantastic job. She was super speedy and professional. Thank you Thuy and Happy Nails!
Betsy Ryan
I made my first appointment online for Happy Nails: a standard Gel Pedi & regular polish Mani. While the salon was already bustling very early in the morning (a very good sign), I was so happy to not even have just a little wait. Khanh was so nice, extremely professional, and made good recommendations to make my Gel Pedi really sparkle. She also worked very quickly AND did a beautiful job.
She was kind enough to make sure I didn't smudge my nails by helping me get my shoes back on at the end. I will not be going anywhere else in the Twin Cities for my nails and have already booked another appointment in a few weeks with the talented Khanh!
I also highly recommend to plan to bring cash for your service as well as your tip.
Meg Blood
I got a dip manicure from Lan Nguyen and it was incredible! Her attention to detail is unmatched and she takes time to ensure your nails are healthy, well shaped, and symmetrical. She’s also very kind and personable. I’ve been going to Happy Nails for the past three months and I’ve had consistently good experiences. Quality nails that last up to four weeks!
Ann Peckskamp
Hands down, the best nail salon ever. I’ve been coming here for nearly 10 years for monthly manicures and will be a lifelong customer! I’ve occasionally had to go to other salons when traveling or something like that, and it’s almost comical how different the quality is. Every other nail salon feels like amateurs compared to the professional quality at Happy Nails. The attention to detail is outstanding, the range of color options is unmatched, and they’re always on the cutting edge of new services. They had dipping powder months before any other salon in town. Also, the technicians are really friendly! My sister and I normally go together to get manicures, and they always notice if one of us comes alone and asks to make sure everything is okay. The reviews are true, finding this salon was like finding buried treasure.
Bella Benson
Such a great place!! Philip got me in after I was 15min late and stayed late to finish my nails for my vacation. Showed him a pic of what I wanted and he did exactly that!
Erin O'Connor
I originally had an appointment scheduled somewhere else, but after seeing some bad reviews I was scared off and came to Happy Nails on a whim. I am so glad I did!!! I had my acrylic nails removed and got my first ever dip manicure by Khanh Pham; she did amazing!! She helped me select a natural-looking shape for my nails and I'm thrilled with how they came out. Also, I had a cut on my cuticle from earlier that day and she was so gentle and worked around it so it wouldn't hurt!
I walked in on a busy night but the wait was not bad at all. Also, the salon felt very clean and you can tell they're taking COVID precautions seriously. I will definitely be coming back!
Emilia Fredrickson
I came in today and had my nails done by Thuy Ho. She did an amazing job on my nails. The shaping is so nice it almost is unreal. I got an acrylic full set and asked for a bit thicker acrylic than normal (due to my job) and she did a nice job making them strong but not clunky. The salon is also being very careful with their COVID precautions, which I appreciated. This salon is a bit more expensive than others I have visited, but the quality of the service is worth it if you’d like to pamper yourself a little.
Sa'rai Meechell
My technicians were Trang Vo and Anh Tran... both done an amazing job!!! I've not had a self care day in a while... and this was the perfect way to start. Thanks Souci ladies for the great products and services you provided today... I truly do appreciate it!!!
Emily Lawrence
I have been coming to Happy Nails for almost 10 years. Even after I moved away from St. Paul, I still drive over 20 miles to keep coming to Happy Nails because it is literally the best nail salon in the Twin Cities. The quality is amazing, and all of the nail artists know the best techniques and have excellent attention to detail. I’ve been to other salons, and no place even comes close to comparing. They have so many more colors to choose from than anywhere else and always have the newest and best services available. Definitely try the dipping powder. Happy Nails does the best dipping powder manicure of any salon ever. You will not be disappointed if you try Happy Nails!
Jessica Fotso
Customer service 100/10, they are really kind sweet and know what they are doing. Their services are great kind of pricy but super great, you won’t regret it. I even received a gift!!
Angela Vasquez
Khanh is so amazing! She is friendly, does amazing work and pays attention to detail. My nails always come out looking amazing and I enjoy chatting with her!
Update: Came back to say that I still love Khanh’s work! I am always pleased with my nails. I get lots of compliments on them and I always recommend that people visit Happy Nails!
Mary Barsness
I am constantly impressed with the employees here. They do my nails and my daughter’s. We go together and they always make sure we’re sitting together and that we love our manicures. They help us find fun ideas and pamper us! My dip nails last at least three weeks. At other salons I would find the best tech there and book with them. At Happy Nails they’re all the best techs! Thank you for creating such a fun space for me and my daughter. 💜
Ebony Keenan
Trang Vo was so fast and she gave me perfect shape! Love this place.
Tayler
Had the most amazing experience at Happy Nails today! It was my first visit, Trang Vo and Thanh La made me feel very comfortable and gave me an incredible gel pedicure and manicure! They both made sure to ask if everything looked okay along the way. Very happy with my visit today, I will be back! 100% recommend this nail salon!
Madison W
My experience at Happy Nails was incredible. The technician was efficient, great attention to detail ( she compared each nail to it's counterpart for a perfect match), and her advice on the length of the nail shape was great. My nails looks phenomenal and I am very happy. The service is very quick and pleasant.
Courtney Backen
I got a full set with a custom design and the staff at Happy Nails were amazing! Philip was so detail oriented and kind. He made sure everything from start to finish was perfect and I will definitely be coming back in the future!
Michelle Tillman
Philip Vo did an hombre pink and white dipped in powder on my nails - new full set. He did an excellent job working with precision, creativity and perfection!! I loved the result and I love the customer service at Happy Nails. They are very professional and extremely attentive in the midst of a very busy shop. As busy as it is, never have I had to just sit around aimlessly waiting to be serviced. I love this shop. Great pedicures too.I'll be back again and again!
Emma Venerus
Really cute nails and was very quick for acrylics and design. They had great colors and excellent application.
Faith Kanneh
Lan Do did an AMAZING JOB! She did both my manicure and pedicure. She was very polite and asked me if I was pleased through every step. She was attentive to my nails and recommended colors that would look nice on them. It was my first time doing dip and would highly recommend anyone to try with Lan Do! Overall very EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!
Isabella Rosa
I have been a regular here for almost a year now! If you are like me than in the past you have been to dozens of nail shops without returning, but honestly I can't think of going anywhere else at this point. Happy nails is always a professional and very welcoming environment with excellent quality and service. I have never and I mean never gotten a bad set of nails from this place, and a few different people have done my nails. Although each tech is great I have truly found my personal favorite in Thuy Ho. My nails and brows have never been better and unfortunately all I can do is say thank you and keep returning. For those of you that are reading this all I can do is ask that you don't steal Thuy Ho away from me, lol. Thank you again and I will see you next time!! Dont forget to follow them on Instagram!
Jenny Strunge
I booked online for my first time at this salon and was able to get in right away, short notice, on a Sunday. I appreciate that they are open on Sunday’s as many nail salons are not. I received fantastic service. I got a dip manicure and Thuy was my technician. She was efficient and knowledgeable. My nails are beautiful. The salon is very busy so I suspect there will be a bit of a wait if I don’t make an appointment in the future but that shows that they’re a great salon. I’ll definitely be returning! Five stars!
Lily Rogers-Grant
TV does an amazing job with my eyebrow wax. I have been back several times and am always happy. Will continue to come to Happy Nails!
Kiera Carter
I came with my husband today his first time actually, he was pretty nervous. Lan do was our nail technician she made him feel so comfortable and he loved every minute of his pedicure! And his facial!
I come here all the time they do an excellent job and are very patient with customers. I love the new remodels its so beautifullll and clean we will be back in 2 weeks! Thank you happy nails❤
Cheryl Buzicky
Happy nails does an excellent job on my nails every time. The staff are friendly and helpful and always make me feel welcome. In fact, the dipping powder lasts me nearly a month, and my nails never chip. Their pedicures are also amazing and super relaxing, and they have a lot of choices. Their services are a little pricey, but I really think they are worth every penny!
Essence Blakemore
This is now the best shop in Minnesota. They were open until 7:30p and went beyond the time they were open! They treated everyone well. I wasn’t rushed Thuy Ho did an amazing job! My nails were so beautiful she made my money totally worth it. The environment was very peaceful. She corrected any error and even pointed out errors on the nails I didn’t notice, like when I bumped my polish. I was getting complements before I was even done! I will be back! I was so HAPPY with my nails.
Cristina Jorgenson
Happy Nails is the best! Every time I have gone to Happy Nails the service is excellent. My nails always end up looking fantastic. It is my favorite place to go, and I don’t get my nails done anywhere else. Thank you so much for your high quality great work Happy Nails staff! :)
Emily Reichard
TV is one of the best nail techs I've had! She did my dip acrylics beautifully. Highly recommend!
Dawn LaCoursiere
Love going to Happy Nails. Just talented warm people. They always do such a great job! Ngo is the best ever! ❤️❤️
Khalila Carlton-Burnett
Hahn Do did my pedicure and Lan Do did my manicure and they were both great!
My feet and fingernails were trimmed perfectly, the massages were extremely relaxing and the painting was on point.
Lan Do also helped me with picking out decorative stickers for my nails which I appreciated quite a bit!
Definitely going here again 😊
Maggie Klinger
Philip Vo is the best nail tech to go to! Always shapes my nails perfectly which is hard to find! He is also great at line work/designs :)
Joi Abundance
My first time experience was amazing, especially after a really bad nail visit with a previous nail salon. The lady took her time perfecting my nails. She made sure my nails were even and to my desired liking. Very accommodating. If you want quality nails this salon would be it.
Katherine Johnson
I just recently started coming to Johnny at Happy Nails after leaving a place I had gone to for 8 years. I was reluctant to have someone else do my nails but I have been beyond happy with Johnny's work.
I came in the first time after breaking all of my acrylic nails dropping a box. My fingers had been bleeding as a result but I didn't want to leave them bare. Another nail salon refused me as they were not comfortable doing it. I decided to try Happy Nails and Johnny right away told me he could help me. He was so kind and careful with me and my nails looked the best they had ever been when he finished!
Ever since then I have exclusively gone to him because of his expertise with long nails and also his kindness. I typically break at least 3 nails in between manicures and since I have seen Johnny I have only broken one which he fixed for me right away.
I will not go to anyone else! He is truly an artist and expert in his industry. I cannot say enough good things about him!!
Mackenzie
I’ve been coming to Happy Nails for a few years now and have never left feeling disappointed or less than satisfied. I’ve been seeing ND specifically for all these years as she is kind, amazingly skilled, and doesn’t give me a hard time for having (insanely) short, biten nails. The new renovation of the salon is absolutely gorgeous and you can tell they are completely committed to the safety of their customers as their cleaning procedures are thorough and followed to a T. I would absolutely recommend checking this salon out (ND in particular!) for some amazing nails.
Winonah Owen-Reese
Amazing service! The wait is usually not long, and someone always greets you when you walk in. I’ve always gotten my nails done by Thuy Ho and she’s absolutely amazing, but my friends have gotten they’re nails done by other people and they’re just as good. They make sure you like what you’re getting and help with ideas if you’re a little stumped about what to get. My favorite thing about Happy Nails is how excellent they do the shaping and painting. Other places I’ve gone too don’t put that much thought into those things, but they always do an amazing job with the small details. I know that I’m gonna keep going to Happy Nails for as long as I have my acrylics on. Don’t forget to bring cash or check to tip them because they deserve it!
pam sullivan
Philip did an amazing job with my nails. Love my Peep.
Josie Flesvig
I love my nails! They did an awesome job
Brittany Yang
I got my nails done by Loan Nyugen and I am extremely happy and satisfied with her patience and professionalism. She took her time with each nail to make sure that they all match and look nice. Loan if you’re reading this, you are my go to Nail technician♥️♥️ I will be booking with you from here on out. Thank you so much!
If anyone is looking for a good nail salon and nail technician. This is the place! ♥️♥️♥️

What a treat!! My nails look amazing and the customer service was top notch. I have never been happier with my nails!!!!

Loved my first visit to Happy Nails! Very quick seating for my appointment and excellent results. Never have I ever had someone take that much time to do such a fabulous job. Lan was a wonderful technician and I plan to visit her again. My friend had TH and she was equally wonderful. Loved the banner while they worked as well. Overall great place that I plan to visit again in December when I need a fill.

While everything was on time and everyone was friendly, it is missing a star because I was the last one to get seated out of our group and finished before others. The nail tech who colored my nail and did a manicure for one of my niece did not take his time at all. It was very rushed and not performed with care. My niece's nail color was so transparent and it looks like her 6 years old daughter color it for her. Although I gave it four stars for timely, being able to accommodate a big group and friendly staff, I would not go again.

I don't get my nail done very often, but when I do, I always choose Happy nails. Recently went for my birthday and got a pedicure and dip. Very relaxing, very clean, very professional. Lan Do was my technician and did an amazing job. Matched my requests exactly. I've been to plenty of other nails shops over the years, but none really compare to the quality experience given at Happy Nails.

I went and got a dip manicure and a pedicure and I absolutely loved it! Their procedures they have set in place made me feel very comfortable! Not to mention my toes and fingers look amazing! Awesome customer service and good prices for what you receive! I will definitely be going back!

Previous nail salons would not shape my nails right, I had to always ask for no gel polish and to just shape them square so I could shape them at home but this time I got clear polish ontop and oval shape and they shaped them right and had a lot of attention to detail so I no longer feel I have to shape them myself. I went with Lan Do and she did fantastic and was very nice and my nails came out great, she also gave me a back massage which I was surprised about. If you are in Saint Paul or near and can parallel park then do come here.
Amani M
Trang Vo is the best nail technician, she always does a fantastic job on my nails and she's the reason why I keep coming back. I've had my current nails for 6 weeks, and they look perfect.
Holly Abel
Love Happy Nails! I am always so happy with my results when I come to get gel manicures. I have been here three times now and plan to keep coming back. Hong N did my nails last time and Anh did them today and they were both so thorough and friendly. I really enjoy getting my nails done here.
Remember to bring cash for a tip!!

I really love the cleanliness of their service! Right when you get there before doing anything they ask you to wash your hands great idea!! Then they ask what kind of service you would like and charge you right away so if you want any additional designs or rhinestones added let them know ahead of time less hectic and less interaction due to COVID! The staffs are super nice and friendly! I love their attention to details to every nails they attend to. And would go extra to make your nails clean and neat! I had Thuy Ho as my nail technician and she’s one of the managers there. She’s very sweet and did awesome with my nails! I got a pedicure and a ombré full set on my natural nails and it was a great service I received there. My nails are very short but the ombré still came through and looks awesome. Waiting for my natural nail to grow longer in time and come back for more dipping!! Also what I like is that they have a timer set to know when your nails are dry on your pedicure if you decide not to get gel. Most other places I’ve gone to doesn’t and it’s a guessing game if it’s dry or not. Thanks Happy Nails!
Melisa Maciel
Very clean and they are super friendly and Philip did an amazing job on my nails that I got done for my wedding ❤️❤️
Lena L
I come here for my manicures and also when I get pedicures or eyebrow wax too. I have come here for 10 + years since I was a teenager! It is the most welcoming, relaxing, and kindest environment. Philip is who I personally love to have my manicures done by, but any one of them are amazing at what they do! I won’t go anywhere else for my mani pedis!!
Melissa Dehne
I absolutely love going to Happy Nails for my pedicures! All the stylists are excellent but my favorite is Ahn Tran! I’ve been coming here for over 5 years and will keep coming. Today, Lan Do was my stylist and she was excellent!Her leg massage was amazing and relaxing. I was very happy with my experience!
Tim Bovenizer
They do a great job and dont take long. Very pretty and no wait usually.
Yeng Vang
My first time at Happy Nails and I’m very satisfied of the results of my nails. Thank you to Lan do, I’m in love with my nails. Definitely am returning❤️ And totally recommend to anyone!
Gabrielle G
There is no where as good as Happy Nails! I have been getting my nails done for over ten years now and I have been searching for years to find somewhere that can do a top notch job like the quality of service that I get done at Happy Nails! You must try a service here. You will not regret it!
N B
I hardly ever get my nails done, but when I found Happy Nails I fell in love with the environment, the technicians, and the wonderful job the nail techs do on my nails. The space is so clean and the guidelines are followed as closely as possible. The technicians take their time to ensure that you get exactly what you're asking for-- I never feel shamed for bringing in reference photos. I will deifnitely be coming back in the future!
Queenie B
Extremely rude. Made an appointment walked in the door and was over seen. Two other ladies walked in after me for the same time and was seen before me. I was left just standing there. No one said nothing to me. I got fustrated and was about to walk out but the manager stopped me and told me she'd help me next. Nails came out cute so 3 stars but the employees need to take a customer service class.
Ali R
Had my first experience at Happy Nails with Philip the salon manager and it was phenomenal. I was a walk-in and did not feel like I was a burden. I did a dip color and the precision that Philip took with the dip was great. I am very pleased with my nails and I will be back to book with Philip when I need a fill!
Brianna Olson Carr
I had a lovely experience getting a regular pedicure from Happy Nails. They are usually busy so I highly recommend making an appointment, even same-day. They do great work!
Camille Hawkins
Khahn (the manager) actually did my nails. I'm not gonna lie it was the best nail shop I've been to. Busy, but effective, efficient and structured. I recommend making an appointment. And bringing a mask. But literally loved my dip powder set and I got a little shoulder massager after. I was like ohh 😯 is this just for me lol. No I think everyone gets it. Overall 11/10 would recommend. I'll probably be back in a few weeks for my birthday nails
Andrea Kyle
Love this place! Make sure you wash your hands when you first come in and wear a mask. It always seems to be busy but they do a great job. I get gel pedicures for $44. They ask you to pay beforehand and if you want to tip you can do it over Venmo or cash. My favorite part is that they give you a little bit of a shoulder massage which I haven’t seen anywhere else.
Julia Odima
Wow! My experience at Happy Nails was so wonderful. The staff at this nail salon made you feel so welcome, which is so important to me. Khanh Pham was so kind, considerate, and made me feel as comfortable as possible. It hands down was the best pedicure I’ve ever had, and the customer service is excellent. I 100% recommend!
Cassandra Combs
I decided to give this nail salon a try after hearing good reviews about them. I was greeted with smiles and hellos followed by an offer for a snack and water. I got a deluxe pedicure, which was AMAZING! The lady(I didn’t catch her name) took her time and I was actually able to relax. I then got a full ombré set from Johnny and he also took this time and nearly perfected my nails! I highly recommend trying this place out. You won’t be disappointed.
Susannah Garland
Khanh Pham did a fabulous job with my gel pedicure and additonal wax on my feet. My mom and I had a fabulous time - we will definitely come again!
xia yang
Hang gave me a pedicure and went above and beyond and took very good care of me. I am 37weeks pregnant and she made sure I was comfortable. I thought my toes looked great but after she was done , she went back and checked her work and redid 4 of them because they didn't look perfect enough for her. I really appreciate her taking her time to ensure my toes were on point.
Gabrielle Rasmussen
Shoulder massage while nails drying was so thoughtful! Great place.
Anne Campbell
My favorite place in St Paul to get my nails done! They're always extremely friendly, professional and efficient. Their color selection is absolutely fabulous for powder dip. Each nail service includes a mini massage too. Shout out to Lan Nguyen and Cam Le for staying late to help my sister and I!
Holly R.
Had a great time with my friends at Happy Nails!!! They were accommodating, friendly, and best yet they did some great acrylic sets. I had Thuy Ho as my artist and she is phenomenal!! Would recommend this place to anyone who wants to do something fun for any occasion!!
A. H.
Just had my nails done for the first time here. I was very impressed with the service and friendliness. Nice quiet atmosphere. Hong did my nails and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy and helped me pick the right color. Thank you Happy Nails!
Febee Vang
Happy Nails is my go to nail salon. They never disappoint! I did a pedi, mani and facial and was taken care of very well. Lan Do did an amazing job on my pedicure! Make sure to check them out if you haven't.
Mallory Skott
Customer service needs alot of work. My ice dancer pedicure (I think I paid $80 for) was very basic, very little attention paid to my actual feet and more so focused on massaging my legs. My feet were literally scrubbed for maybe 30sec each so they still have dead skin. The only good thing was my actual nails themselves
R. E.
Jacob did a wonderful job. He created nicely shaped, clean painted acrylic nails. They have reasonable pricing and are clean as well.
Deb Sherrer
Lovely experience. I appreciate that they still require masks, since you have to be close to other people, and the place looks very clean and well cared for. Staff was friendly. Prices are pretty fair.
ashley adams
Hong did a wonderful job on my pedicure and ahn, the manager also did a great job on my full set. The pedi was so relaxing and every sanitation step was followed which I really appreciate. I have really short finger nails so a good acrylic set is hard to come by- and i am SO impressed! They’re so pretty. I’ll definitely be back!
Kaitlyn Denten
Have been going here for a couple months now and have loved the services and staff. Arcylics were set quick and well-done, and fills are quick as well. Pedicure was also lovely.
Mai Bry
I went to happy nails very upset about my nails I had done the day before somewhere else. They said they could and Diem I believe her name was took very good care of me!! I will definitely be back i am highly satisfied she fixed my chunky gross nails!!! Saved me.
Amy Lemus
Nga and Lan Do did myself and my daughters nails today. They were so nice and professional and my nails look the best they ever have! Will be recommending and coming back again and again! Thank you Happy Nails! And thank you ladies!
Ella Ramirez
i got my nails done from Nga Do , she did amazing, no flaws with my nails. and the service was overall amazing compared to a lot of salons around st. paul.
Zakeitheia Mearidy
I love the service of Thuy. Everytime I get my lashes done they are full and perfectly placed. I receive compliments all the time about how flattering they appear on my face. I only work with her. 😍😍😍😍✌️✅ …
Paulina Ponce
Thuy was able to help me today and provided a very relaxing and clean experience. All employees are very nice and understanding. Their work was amazing as well loved how mani and pedi turned out! Thanks again!
Sarah Cazares
This was my second time at this nail salon. Definitely a great experience! Johnny did my nails, I’m new to dip nails, they are definitely worth paying the extra money for. I decided to also get my brows waxed and tinted, Morgan was great and was super nice! This is now my new nail place, thank you!
Nan Watts
This place is consistently five stars, but today my experience was above and beyond. Ask for Philip Vo if you want the best dip powder nails ever!! I showed him a photo and he recreated it even better than the picture. 10/10 recommend Happy Nails but 11/10 recommend Philip!
Cate Eliason
My first experience at this salon was nothing less than spectacular! I received a dipping powder set of nails and a pedicure. Both services were top of the line and provided by some seriously sweet ladies :) I can’t wait to go back! The salon was clean and I felt safe being in there during our Covid-19 situation.
Missy MissD
They got me in last minute did everything I asked for I’ll be coming back I love it every thing
Grace Chiakowski
Thuy does a wonderful job on my nails. I get the dip powder manicure with added tips for extra length, and they look amazing. I really recommend her because you will leave the salon very happy with your service.
Natalie Turkowski
First time coming here after being referred by a friend. Made an appointment and walked away very happy. Got dipped nails and my mom got a pedicure. We were both very satisfied. All staff was very nice, welcoming and good at the services done. Clean and relaxing nail salon. Just made another appointment to go back!
Diana Nguyen
Happy Nails is my new go-to spot for manicures and pedicures. They are not the cheapest in the area but it’s worth paying a little extra for everything they offer. The nail techs are always on time and professional and do an excellent job (bonus massages with your service too!). The atmosphere is very relaxing and the salon complied with COVID-19 cleanliness protocols. I always go to Hong for my pedicures and today Nga did an amazing job on my dip powder nails!
Clare Schleichert
I have been going to Happy Nails now for over 5 years and have always been impressed with their service and attention to detail even when they are extremely busy (which is a lot of the time). The salon is always clean, organized and now with a receptionist — runs even smoother.
I recently moved far away from this salon and had tried going elsewhere due to the long drive, but ultimately keep coming back here. My nails last longer, are more even, appropriately shaped and have less lifting than anywhere else I have gone.
If you tend to be a picky person about your nails like I am, ask for a Nga. She is meticulous in her work and a true professional. Her family owns the salon and does additional training with all of their new employees. They actually test their employees on a service before being allowed to take a client requesting say, a dip service. I feel this is the reason why you can go to almost any tech in their salon and receive a high quality manicure/pedicure/set/etc.
Happy nails has made the extra effort to be a top salon in the Twin Cities and it shows in their work.
Queen Brown
The shop is clean and a warm welcome when me and my sister arrived to the nail salon. But what I didn’t like was the fact that they had us pay before getting our feet done which every other salon I went to never did that ever. But I also noticed that when another female arrived that was white, me and my sister noticed that they didn’t ask her to pay early until they noticed that we were watching and than asked her. I’m not sure if it had something to do with the color of our skin but I felt uncomfortable after that situation.
Morgan Rohling
Today Philip did my dip powder nails and I couldn't be more happy about them 🥰 He did a more than thorough job on my ombré french nails with a dash of sparkle! I've gotten my nails done by other nail techs as well and they're all fabulous. 💅🏼 I highly reccomend anyone at Happy Nails! You won't be disappointed!! ❤❤❤ …
Sarah Carranza
Trang did a wonderful job on my manicure, shape is perfect and the polish is clean. Very happy with my service!
Sheila Ryker
Very rarely do I do reviews but I feel the need to share. Today was the first time I went to happy nails.. I have spent the last two years trying to find a salon that actually does what I want rather than what they want. I went in this morning and it was extremely busy but everyone was so friendly and did their best to make me feel welcomed.
. Philip Vo, the manager did an amazing job. He really listened to exactly what I wanted in the exact shape I requested. They turned out incredible. I will definitely recommend this place as well as go back again and again. Thank you so much for the above average service and the attention to detail.

I have always loved Happy Nails, and tonight made me love it even more! Khuyen Nguyen was my nail specialist this evening & did a fantastic job. She was very friendly while also being very professional in her work. She made me feel very comfortable and made my nails look fresh & and feel fresh. She took her time and made sure I was happy with the results! If you’re looking for good conversation, incredibly customer service & beautiful nails, Khuyen is your nail specialist!
emily montgomery
I just went here for the first time and my nails have never looked better! I got a full set with gel polish and they look so amazing, I’ve never been happier with my nail service. One of the managers did my nails and not only did she do a great job, but she was so fast! My only complaint is that I made an appointment and I still waited for 30 min, but honestly it was okay because my nails were done so quickly.
Vanessa Werner
Full Acrylic Set For Christmas 🎄 ABSOLUTELY beautiful 😍 🤩 …
Hannah Gandrud
Diem Nguyen did my gel manicure with a beautiful design and I am very happy with it! When I came in the people at the front asked if I had a photo for reference because they said they could do anything I wanted. The place was super welcoming, clean, and had tons of chairs and techs— even near close on Sunday. My nail tech, Diem was super nice and careful with removing my old manicure. Couldn’t be happier! Will be coming back to fill out my punch card :)
Rachael Meisel
I love Hannah she always takes her time with her pedicures and gives the best massages. So relaxing if you are looking to get pampered go see her! Also see Hang Ho for nail dipping she does a great job with the shaping and making them not too thick. Great experience.
Orianalogan
Amazing attention to detail! So many dip powder colors and glitters to choose from! They were super busy when I arrived but they got me right in the second I walked in! $47 for my all black dip nails with one accent glitter nail on each hand, plus a back massage while my polish dried! 10/10 recommend, plus they have a card when you come 15 times your 16th time is free!(: be sure to bring cash to tip!!!
Nina Ciresi
Just went to happy nails and it was awesome! Jennie was my nail tech and did little cherries which turned out amazing 🤩 …
Abby Dahl
Trang Vo did an amazing job on an acrylic refill!
Amy Pavelka
I’ve been here quite a few times. I don’t get my nails done often (mostly pedicures in the summer and sometimes manicures all year). I don’t typically do acrylic or gel because I like natural nails and don’t want the upkeep of those. Anyways, I’m just always left a little disappointed. It’s always chaotic in there, the are rude when you walk in (almost yelling at you to wash your hands, sign in, etc). Both times I’ve been in there in the past couple months their credit machine wasn’t working. Some people they mention they can use venmo, others not. It’s very inconsistent and they have made people go and get cash without being clear and offering venmo. I don’t understand. They need to have a sign on the door or something.
To the mani/pedi, they are never bad, but never great. Always so/so. Always have polish left on my skin. Today they didn’t get all of my old color off at the sides of my nails so I have hot pink nails with blue green poking out on the sides. (Gross). My feet aren’t that bad but always feel rough when I am done. I miss the days of having smooth feet after a pedicure.
You definitely should not come here if you are looking for a relaxing pampering experience. I may be back but I’m going to try a new place on Grand and see if there is a better experience out there.
Olivia Brandt
I had gotten acrylic nails done elsewhere (only once), and got them filled and color at Happy Nail. They look so much better than they did before. The previous salon didn’t even touch my cuticles! They were very busy but it was so worth the wait. The service was nice and friendly as well.
Ruth Nk
Everyone was very kind and hospitable. The store is beautiful and clean. Everyone is wearing masks and washing hands often. This is my first pedicure, and I thought my nails would be a little hard to do because they are thin and short but Khanh Pham did a wonderful job making them look beautiful! I will definitely be coming back here again in the future.
sarah vanzee
Happy Nails is absolutely the best! I have been to many different Nail Salons and they are clean, friendly, professional and on time! I did a ombre dip nail and it is beautiful!! Lan Do was very sweet and did a amazing job!
Natasha Ricketts
Trang Vo and Huyen they did an awesome job on nails it’s a most check if your in town thank me later
Margaret Oliver
Brian did a wonderful job and listened to exactly what I wanted!! Thank you!
Margaret Olson
I have been going to Happy Nails for a couple of years and have always been very happy with their service and expertise. Of late I have been seeing Hong Nygn, by appointment, who always gives me the most wonderful pedicures. The salon is close to my home and has a lovely warm and unpretentious atmosphere. I recommend it highly.
Monica Fossati
Had our first mommy daughter date night with my 8 year old and we had a great experience. Did not have to wait long... and had good conversation with the nail techs. The 'Refreshing' pedi was exactly what I needed after a long day on my feet! Will be coming back for next date night! Thank you Happy Nails!
Kelsey Nelson
I got in right on schedule. Got a gel manicure from Hong and I have never liked a manicure more! From start to finish she was WONDERFUL! She is very particular and I also came in with a nail ripping off and she fixed it and it looks perfect! Also the finishing shoulder and arm massage is a perfect touch! Anyone that leaves a bad review must have just had one bad experience because I don't see how this place can get a bad review. Highly recommend!! Thanks Hong! I'll be back for sure!
Taylor Dahl
New to St. Paul and decided to try Happy Nails after reading the good reviews. I was not disappointed! Very friendly staff and nice environment. Thuy Ho did my nails and she did an amazing job. I will for sure be going back.
Chia Mee Yang
Loving my new set of gel nails done by Thanh La. She cut my cuticles perfectly like how I wanted! The shape is spot on as well as the polishing. Can't wait to go back!
Alesha Berger
I hadn’t been here in a couple years so today was my first time back and it’s just as amazing as I remember! The manager Phil did my acrylics with the dip powder and they came out perfect! I will never go anywhere else. Happy Nails has my service for life!
Comfort Amah
Lan Nguyen did an amazing job on my manicure and pedicure. I had a special request for a dip red and gold ombré set and she did an PERFECT JOB at bringing my vision to life. I HIGHLY recommend her for any nail service, she will take care of you!!
Tabitha Fischer
KP was amazing! Will make the drive across the river for this great business!
Sarah Militello
Happy Nails is the only salon I trust to do my nails in the Twin Cities. They turned me on to dip manicures and I am never looking back. They last 4 weeks minimum and hardly ever chip. Thank you Happy Nails for always giving me a great manicure!
Cody Marks
My first time getting acrylic nails and powder dip. The manager did my manicure and I've never had service quite like this. She was kind and respectful and listened to what I wanted. I felt very welcomed and like my time was valuable. The overall finished product was beyond what I could have hoped for. Ahhhhh! 🥰 …
Alec Austin
Very friendly and attentive staff. They make sure you are satisfied with your nails and do a fantastic job. Bring cash to tip. You cannot tip on card.
Eleanor Powell
I love this place! I've been coming here now for several years. I used to get acrylics and now I just get the organic dipping powder which I love! For me it lasts 3-4 weeks! My natural nails are so long. The staff here are so friendly and attentive. I've been to a couple other places and always return back because they're not as good. They offer so many services here and they do take appointments if you call ahead.
aly b
OMG!!!!!! This is my first time at Happy Nails and I can tell you I’ll ALWAYS come back. Setting up the appointment was so easy. I was offered a beverage and the woman who did my nail (manager) did a phenomenal job!! I’m sooo happy with how they turned out! I’ve never been this happy after getting my nails done. I have ZERO complaints. NONE!!
Alexandra Taylor
I cross the border from Minneapolis to come to Happy Nails because they’re consistent and high quality and have the best selection of polish colors - the best nail experience I’ve had.
I see Hong for my gel manicures. She is diligent and thorough and so cute!
Hang did little sister’s nails and they literally were unchipped and perfect for three weeks.
Five stars!
Cherie Trinka
I came here on tuesday the 2nd of May. The staff was very friendly. They we're absolutely booked. Even though I was a half an hour late they made sure to get us and for our appointment right away. The salon is a very clean enjoyable atmosphere I absolutely loved getting my nails done by Philip he is a great conversationalist and made me laugh although a couple nails did Chip a week later when I called they were more than willing to fix the problem for me and Philip did an excellent job and I appreciated the excellent art. Nga also did my nieces nails. Wonderful job. We will be returning in just a couple weeks to get our fills
Thank you Happy Nails .." this is not fighting Nails, this is HAPPY NAILS" PHILIP VO.
Valerie Buvat de Virginy
Khanh Pham was great! i got acrylic nails and the service was quick, clean, and fantastic. best place in the twin cities
Elise Cole
I’ve been going to Happy Nails on Snelling for years. They offer regular polish, dip, gel, and acrylic at competitive prices. They also offer waxing and lash services. I got an excellent gel manicure by Hong Nguyen last week and will definitely be back to see her!
Nia Ford
Nga do did an amazing job on my pedicure! I go to Happy Nail often to get pedicures and they are definitely worth it. It is also very clean and Covid regulations are used.
Alicia Cermak
Heidi did my nails today and she is absolutely beautiful inside and out! She seriously made my day. Amazing service, Gorgeous nails and she ended with a hand massage that felt incredible. I will be coming back, thank you so much Heidi you are amazing!!!!! I am so HAPPY with happy nails:)

Melissa Singleton
Great nail salon! They always accommodate to get you in when needed, they are clean and have a very friendly staff. Thuy Ho is amazing and swift, pays attention to detail too! Also, they have warm towels for drying hands :) I will definitely recommend Happy Nails to everyone.
Eve
I love getting my nails done here. Even before Covid hit, their hygiene was impeccable. I always feel safe here. Not to mention, they are SO skilled at whatever kind of nail style or design you want. I'll never go anywhere else❤️
Olivia Meadows
Johnny did an amazing job on my nails! I’d call him a ‘coffinologist’ for doing such clean coffin shape. He was quick and meticulous, paid attention to detail, shape was perfect, no lumps or thickness - I love my nails! Went on a Sunday morning at noon, busy but a lot of staff. Will definitely be going back to him! Love leaving the nail shop satisfied. Next time will bring cash as it’s $2 cheaper.
Victoria C
I've visited several nail shops in the twin cities, and Happy Nails is amazing. I'm very particular about my nails, and they get it. The best dip manicure I've ever had. I highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed!
Ashley Herrera
Trang is amazing, she gave me the look I needed fory vacation, highly recommend her !!!!!!
Joanna McNellis
Very nice staff. My daughter loves this place and on this trip for acrylic nails. My Tieu was very helpful in determining the right color, shape and design to meet her dream nails. Nga Do did my pedicure and was very nice. Definitely will come back and visit them again.
Basia Burke
Trang Vo and Phuong are amazing! I keep going back because they do such an amazing job

I had a wonderful experience here at happy nails. They are very accommodating and exceeded my expectations. I love my nails and toes. Will definitely be going back!
Francoise Corser
Very professional, safe and great quality experience, I loved my full set and absolutely loved the result. I would highly recommend this nail salon. My artist was NGA DO and she was absolutely amazing with doing the exact design picture I showed her.
Meg Meg
Found my new nail salon! Khanh did my dip nails and they look perfect. The salon was clean and all the workers were friendly and nice. They were very festive for Xmas and gave a cuticle oil as a gift!
Will come back after my dip needs to be redone.
Thank you happy nails 😊
Lola93
Probably the best place to get dip powder manicures in Saint Paul. Even though it is 52 dollars it is wellll worth it. I’m very happy with how my nails turn out. I got my nails done with Lan Do and she was very good. I’m sure everyone in the salon is very good as well
Chrystal Robinson
Hong Ngyuen did my pedicure and did an excellent job! Took her time and made sure my nails were done to perfection. I also got my eye lashes done by Anh Le and she did an amazing job! I will come again for more services!
Javal Dant
I have tried MANY places and I am in love with this place! I absolutely love my nail tech! Every one does a great job! KP is the person I go to but from the looks of it they all do good work. Sometimes busy and may have to wait but well WORTH the wait!
Jean Marie
This was my 1st time at Happy Nails and Lan Do was my nail gal! Out of all the nail spas I’ve even been to in my life...THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST! Lan was so attention to detail and took the time to make sure that they were perfect. I’m so happy with my nails and will definitely come again!
Anna Lyon
Trang did an excellent job!
Jennifer S
Pros: did a great job with my dip manicure and girlfriend massaged my shoulders, which never happens when I get my nails done. They also have a bigger selection of dip colors than any other place I’ve been. The staff member was very good at her job but basically didn’t speak to me.
Cons: it’s time for a makeover. The shop is just rundown. Everything is dingy, the walls holes and sitting in that first spot next to the front desk - terrible. I was surrounded by garbage and staff squeezing in and out, bumping into me every few minutes. This place could be amazing with a fresh coat of paint and some new decor.
Price seems reasonable for the area. If i go to the suburbs it’s $5-7 cheaper. I’m not quite a 4 star...But close.
Let’s HangOut
2/9/17. Today was my very first time getting my nails done at a salon. A 1-10, I would give this salon a 8 for nail perfection and 6 or 7 for customer service. Like I said, it was my first time, and my first time was uncomfortable. They didn't really LEAD me to where I needed to go which made me look like a dumb person. Something I would like for them to do is tell me more on my nail choices and lead me to where I need to go. Besides these two things, I LOVE it a lot! The people are nice. I got my nails done by Philip Vo; the only men in the shop, and surprisingly he was good at it. I recommend this place, but might just be a little uncomfortable for beginners.
Megan Mulrooney
Nga Do did my nails and she did amazing!! I did acrylic/gel and I was in an out in a little less than an hour and I had a design done! She did sooo good!
CHRISTINE ANTONELLI
THUY HO at Happy Nails in Saint Paul is the best! I have lived in 4 states ( NY, NJ, CA & MN) and HAPPY NAILS is the best nail salon I have ever been too. THUY's dip manicures are always perfect and last a long time ! She is the best of the best!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I had a pedicure with Hanna. She did a fantastic job and was very patient and friendly. Make sure to bring cash for a tip!!! The staff was all nice and welcoming. The salon is very clean and calming. Make sure to go and check out this great business.

I went here for the first time for a pedicure. I get pedicures at least once a month, not for the paint as much as for the leg massage. I was VERY pleasantly pleased when I told the nail tech at Happy Nails that this is what I was looking for, she suggested a package with the longest and best leg massage option. Then proceeded to provided the best lengthy leg massage... with hot stones!!! (I’ve never seen that in a nail salon before, only at a massage studio). I am very pleased and I will be back!

Lan Nguyen did a wonderful job on my nails! I felt a little guilty for having to ask for a few extra things (like fixing the butterfly placement), but other than that, quite happy. Plan to come again!
Rachel Anderson
I had a pedicure and full set acrylic with Thuy Ho earlier this week. Both turned out amazing, and Thuy got the perfect shape for my acrylics. They are some of the best I’ve ever had! A week later and Im still in love. Strongly recommended!
Gabriella Stumpf
Nga Do & Ahn Tran are the BEST nail techs in the twin cities! They always do such an excellent job with my dipping powder manicures, ice dancer pedicures and gorgeous eyelash extensions! I will not go anywhere else for these services! Everyone at Happy Nails is wonderful, like a big happy family! I love going there and spending time with all of them while getting pampered.
Casandra Pieri Wurscher
They are the best! Got a horrific manicure right before a vacation and Happy Nails came to the rescue. By far exceeded my expectations. Fantastic job, speedy service and pleasant conversation. Definitely recommend!

Thang Vo is a very good nail artist!! I came in and showed her a picture of what I wanted and she delivered that and more!! Definitely 5 STARS!

I love my nails! Philip did a fantastic job and he even helped me pick out a great light purple shade for my dip manicure. They turned out smooth and have a great shape. Pretty sure I’ve found my regular salon.
*Edit: I’ve definitely found my regular salon. I absolutely love Happy Nails. It’s the only place I go now. I got an ombré dip today and it’s fantastic. Lan Nguyen is excellent, as well. I wish I could give them more stars :)
*Further Edit: Happy Nails is the only place I’ll go for dip manicures. Today, Diem Nguyen gave me an ultra sparkly mani and Johnny painted some really cute holly berries on top of it. I feel a lot more festive than I did before I went in. Thanks you guys!!

I’ve been coming to Happy Nails for years, however today was the first time I have been since the pandemic began and since their remodel. The place looks stunning and they are practicing excellent cleaning/Covid protocols. When we first arrived in, they had us wash and then sanitize our hands before checking in. Anh Tran and Ngo Do took care of my partner and I. Anh Tran, like always, took very good care of me! We had the Firewalker Pedi and she was amazing at every part of it. Ngo Do worked on my partner, who worked wonders for him. This was his second time ever receiving one (his first one was also from Happy Nails over two years ago) and he was very relaxed and happy with his pedi. Happy Nails has been my spot and will continue to be my spot! Thank you Anh Tran and Ngo Do for everything and for taking care of us!
Lori Sorensen
LOVE Happy Nails. I always have Ahn Le do my dipping powder manicure, she's very efficient and gentle. It's so nice to be greeted by name when I come in. See you in a few weeks my Happy Nails friends. :)

Amazing amazing! I got my nails done by Johnny - highly recommend! He did a great job making sure my nails were exactly how I wanted them and was so pleasant the entire time. Great service and staff!
Kristine Tran
I went here to get my nails done for my upcoming 30th birthday. Thuy ho did my nails and she was so nice and talkative. She also made sure i was comfortable and asked me if my nails were the right length I wanted. I love my nails, it turned out so beautiful.
Lexi Mendez
Khanh did such an amazing job on my nails!!! They made me feel very welcomed. Very clean and the service was excellent. She’s so talented and even helped me pick a better color for my nails.
Lindsay Hill
I came to Happy Nails for my wedding manicure, and I could not be more blown away by the amazing experience I had! The team took great care of our wedding party, and even gifted us with a bottle of champagne to help kick off the wedding celebrations!
My manicurist, Thuy, was so friendly, helpful, and thorough, I left feeling so relaxed and beautiful! Not to mention, I showed her one photo of my nail art inspiration and she completely went above and beyond to make it look even more spectacular than the photo, complete with gold flecks and hand drawn marble detail. THANK YOU Thuy and the whole happy nails team, you made our wedding prep experience one to remember and we will definitely be back!!! 💕💕💕
Nicki Quinn
Brian did an amazing job on my nails! I was a little worried with the design being so tedious but he did a great job!
Shayla Remkus
I loved this place. Nice environment but I got hit with a big bill. 120$ never had my nails professionally done and I don’t know if this is normal or not.
queenalicia2010
Always, professional, nice, and attentive! I love this place! They treat me very well! Always very welcoming! Hang Ho does dipping powder and pedicure for me so professional & precise! Excellent eyebrow work & care by Thuy Ho at all times! Nice atmosphere! Everyone is friendly & cares! I refer, family, friends and strangers all the time! 👍🏾👩🏾💞💅🏿👏🏾💯
Megan Rothstein
Best nail salon! I Have tried so many different nail places and no one has done dipped nails like this one. Have been twice and will continue to go back. Hang is the best spends so much time making my nails look perfect! Highly recommend!
Lauren Mitchell
Every time I’ve gone in and shown a picture of what I want they get it done perfectly! Nga was so nice and professional and checked in with me to make sure the design was exactly what I wanted. Would definitely recommend her if you want a unique design!
Chel W
Visited for my first time the other day and loved my experience! My nail tech was Anh (she's also the manager) and she did a fabulous job! I got a dip powder mani and a gel pedi. The mani I chose included a shoulder rub and, for an extra $5, a hand and arm rub. Totally worth it! And these are some of the best dips I've had! Occasionally dips can be too thick on the nail, but these were perfect. The pedi was very relaxing. My friend and I loved the massage chairs. I'd highly recommend this place and will be back!
Obsine Feyisa
I loved that they were able to take me in not only last minute but near their closing time. Johnny did an impeccable job on my nails. I appreciate that he stayed over time to take time on my nails. My new nail spot for sure!

This was my 3rd visit and everytime was wonderful. I like that the nail technician informs and request payment prior to service. Nail designs are to perfection service is very professional and welcoming especially during the pandemic. Highly recommend!
Hannah Jacky
I have been here several times- every female technician I’ve had has done an excellent job. Today a younger guy did my nails. I’ve had him once before, and it was fine. I could tell he didn’t like my color choice today, and he proceeded to do a really quick and fairly sloppy job. I told him I’d like to keep the length and he filed them down pretty aggressively, at least three of my nails were filed at a slant, and the shaping was inconsistent. It took me only like 30 seconds per nail to fix them at home with a file. It’s not okay to give lower quality service just because you don’t like someone’s choice! I felt very irritated by the time I left. 4 Stars because it’s a great place in general. Just pissed about my experience today.
Donna Ivey
I enjoy coming to this salon. I’m A regular at this salon. I’ve been to many salons over the cities and I always seem to return here. My favorite place! My regular nail tech is Nga Do she’s always helpful and very accommodating. Not to mention my nails, pedicure and lashes are ALWAYS amazing! I highly recommend this salon. There many services available
Stephanie Choe
My first visit with Happy Nails was amazing! I booked online with Lan Nguyen (their booking process is really easy btw) and she really is an amazing nail tech. She took her time with my nails and really paid attention to the small details.
Linnea Anderson
Jennie did a great job on my nails! Never got dip before and i will definitely be getting again
Jacquelyn M
I get manicures here religiously. Best manicures ever, but they tend to rush through them and are pretty aggressive. Their shellac lasts a VERY long time, and if you have any chipping or anything within the first week, they will typically repair at no cost.
I did, however, get my eyebrows done there one time (for convenience sake) and she took off more than a full centimeter of my outer left eyebrow. And when I asked what happened there (in tears), she said it looked better that way............ I've been growing it out for 3 months now.... :(
cherry harris
trang vo did beautiful nails!!!! love them so much !!
Patrick Paye
It was my first time doing a pedicure, and Diem Nguyen, took great care of me!! I would definitely recommend their service to anyone! Check them out and experience what happy nail has to offer!!
Georgia Cousineau
Had a manicure and a pedicure done so happy with what they did, but was told it would be $127.00 and when I looked on what they charged me they charged me $20 dollars more? I gave an $80.00 tip for service, so upset that they uncharged me more! My daughter was charge $40 dollars more for her and her daughtet.
Latona Simms
Absolutely amazing service! I'm so happy with my gel full set that Philip did, and almost fell asleep while Ms.Hong worked her magic on my feet. They treat you with respect, and make sure you are comfortable. I'll never go anywhere else!
La Cacciatrice
Excellent nail salon! Easy to book online and with their app. On street parking. Friendly and fast service. Knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Serena Anderson
I have been going here for years and always have a good experience. Jennie has done my last couple manicures and they have all been gorgeous
Autumn McKinney
Love this place! Very clean and professional and very efficient. I got my nails done by Thuy Ho and i love them so much, exactly what I wanted and she was very precise and amazing. Definitely my go to nail salon from now on!!
Cathy B
I got French dip manicure and Khanh Pham is talented. She did beautiful job . Absolutely love them
Kelvin Tong
I love Happy Nails! They do such a good job and offer many options and services! Not only are they good at nails, they’re good at facials and waxing too! I highly recommend Happy Nails! (:
Ny'Eela Nixon
Great service! I showed the manager Thuy Ho a reference picture of the nails I wanted and she executed the look perfectly. I will be back again !
Hannah Hills
Khanh is amazing I see every time I get my nails done. She does them exactly how I want every time she’s the best.
Alana Mosley
I’ve gone to Happy Nails 3 times now, and each time has been positive. They offer a good color selection for dip and gel, and Anh Tran and Khanh Pham do quality work that lasts. Plus, they end each manicure with a shoulder massage and it’s open on Sundays.
Sabrina Spörk Woodling
I am a little biased because this was my first time ever getting my nails done but this place was fantastic. Fast service, lots of options (we got dipped nails) delicate yet accurate service, and everyone was very nice. I will definitely return!
Carolynne Sandbakken
I love this salon! They are kind and do a great job doing my dip polish! They even did an ombre dip for me today! They have a ton of seating for both mani's and pedi's and I have not had a problem getting in without an appointment!
Stef Omana
Every time I’ve been here my nails have always been amazing. I made the mistake of going to another nail shop and my nails were crooked and thick and Ahn Le at Happy Nails fixed them and did my nails so good! Only shop I’ll go to.
Amberlee Aguilar
I have been going to different salons trying to find the best spot and have been disappointed every time. I was desperate for a good manicure! Walked into Happy Nails and had no wait time. I said I wanted my nails shorter and shaped differently and my nail tech Nga Do listened. I showed the design I wanted and she said she could do it. I was nervous because the other places also said they could do the design I wanted and definitely could not. As Nga Do started to work on my nails, all my fears disappeared. I was so impressed with her speed, attention to detail, and her skill. I will easily be going back for my next fill and hope them Nga can do my nails again! This has been the best experience at a salon I’ve ever had! Thank you so much!!!
Sara Kerr
An inviting and fun place to visit. The staff is friendly and chatty even when their accents are heavy. My nails are gorgeous and they stand behind their work.
Beenayee Lee
Philip was very patient, always taking his time on my nails, and was always reassuring if I like the shape and the colors! The process through out getting my nails done was a success! Book with him!
Jazzmyne Wages
Definitely appreciate a place that accepts same day appointments that I can book online and get me in and out within an hour. Thank you for your services.
