Happiness Nails & Spa 2669 Gateway Road, Carlsbad, CA 92009

"My friend and I just had 12 minute spa pedicures. To exfoliate the bottoms of our feet, they just used a dry towel, that’s a new technique. It was towards the end of their day, and they started mopping the floors with Fabuloso (yuck) during our pedicure. Would never go back."

"I think I know why this nail salon is only a 3.6 review. Unfortunately, this salon is so busy, their focus primarily on churning through clients quickly. Their customer service is lacking and most of their employees do not speak English not that that matters but it’s hard when you’re trying to explain some thing and they do not understand what you are requesting. I paid $70 for a manicure that should’ve cost $35. Buyer bewareThumbs way down!"

"Called to have a pedicure done. No appointment necessary, but I do recommend it especially Friday to Sunday. They are usually very busy during these days. Anyway, walked in greeted by an associate, technician was notified we were there, came out, greeted us, pointed to our seats, introduced herself, Jenine (sorry, if misspelled) very nice, friendly, courteous, and helpful. I had a really bad ingrown nail and she took it out, although it was a little painful, she took the constant pain I was having away. Anyhow she was very attentive and she took her time and did a nice job."

"I tried this salon right before Christmas and this is how my nails looked over the holidays. All the gel is peeling off, of course they were closed for the holiday and I had family over, so I paid $98.00 to have my nails look like trash. Will NEVER go back, ridiculous."

"I always have the best experience. Ruby is a rock star. She puts up with my crazy ideas and my nails always look amazing! Her massage is bar none the best!!!! Warning, she's hard to get into. Always book your appointment ahead of time to get her."
