Call and a person answers, or start below and we will come to you.

01 · Start here

Five boxes and we call you back.

Real numbers on your actual list. No account to create, no minimum order.

A quote is open to everyone

A seller's permit is what unlocks tax free buying. Pricing is available to anyone ordering in quantity.

Priced on your lines

The specific brands you name, not a tier chart you have to decode.

English, Tiếng Việt, Español

Talk to us in the language you actually do business in.

Get wholesale pricing

A name and a number is genuinely enough. We will ask the rest when we speak.

A permit, a completed CDTFA-230 or multistate resale certificate, or a photo of the list on your counter. If you attach a completed certificate you can leave the certificate boxes blank.

Would rather just talk? Call 714-868-7088, 9 to 7, and ask for wholesale. You can bring your list to the counter any day.

02 · What you get

More than a better price.

These are the things our accounts actually call us about.

01

Pricing on your actual list

Tell us the lines you carry and we come back with your numbers on those specific items.

02

One person who knows your account

The same name and number every time, who already knows what you ordered last month.

03

Priority processing

Wholesale orders get picked and out the door ahead of the queue, which counts for most in the weeks before a busy season.

04

A standing reorder, if you want one

Tell us what you go through and how often, and we can set one up so reordering is not something you have to keep track of.

05

A straight answer on what is moving

We watch hundreds of salons buy every week. Ask what is actually selling before you commit a budget to it.

06

First look at new arrivals

You hear about a launch before it reaches the floor, so you can be the salon in your area offering it first.

07

Full manufacturer warranty

We are an authorized distributor, so every item carries the maker's own warranty. If something is defective we point you to the right claim, help you put it together and stay across it until it is settled.

08

Shipping priced to your order

Small or pallet sized, we work the freight out with you when we quote so you can budget the whole number up front.

03 · What we sell

A whole wall of color, one line on your invoice.

Every set below is on the shelf in Garden Grove. These are catalog prices, and wholesale is quoted on your actual list.

The biggest wall we sell

04 · Ways to buy

Three ways to buy, and you are welcome in all three.

Shop at shelf price. Ask for bulk pricing on a large order. Set up wholesale when you resell. Move between them as your business grows. We serve every stage.

Shopping

Open to everyone

  • Walk in or order online
  • No license, no account, no minimum
  • The full wall, 140+ brands
  • Nothing to set up

Bulk pricing

Earned by what you order

  • Priced on how much you order
  • Salons, schools, resellers and distributors all qualify
  • Cases, pallets and truckloads
  • Open to everyone, permit or not

Wholesale

For buying to resell

  • You hold a valid seller's permit
  • A signed resale certificate on file
  • We set your account up, usually in a day
  • Tax free buying, and we handle the paperwork

Better pricing and tax free buying are two separate benefits. A large order earns better pricing whoever places it. Whether that same order is also tax free depends on what you do with the product afterwards.

How it works for your kind of business

Everyone is welcome here. The paperwork is just a little different depending on what you do with the product.

Salons and spas

Better pricing is open to you on quantity, same as anyone. On tax, the products you resell to clients off your retail shelf are what a resale certificate covers.

Supplies you use during a service are treated differently under California law. Call and ask for a manager and we will walk through where that line sits for your business.

Beauty and nail schools

Kits you sell on to students and supplies consumed in training are treated differently from each other, and schools often have their own exemption route separate from resale.

We handle schools through a quote your purchasing office can raise a PO against. Details on the tax exempt and educational page.

Resellers and distributors

The straightforward case. You buy to resell, so a resale certificate covers your inventory and there is no line to draw.

Send it once as a blanket and it covers your future orders. We still confirm the permit is current.

Shipping and payment

Shipping built around your order

A case of files and a pallet of pedicure kits fall into different shipping categories, so we work the shipping out with you when we quote and you get the whole number up front, whatever the size.

  • Small reorders go standard parcel
  • Extra large or overweight items get their own shipping quote
  • Pickup in Garden Grove is always free, 7 days, usually same day
  • Gallons and display racks ship ground, never air, so hazmat and size set the price
  • International ships Delivery Duty Unpaid, so your own country bills the duties

Payment that keeps orders moving

Several ways to pay:

  • Credit card by secure payment link. Your card rewards are yours to keep
  • Business check, made out to C8 Nail Supply
  • Wire transfer, the fastest way to clear a large order

Larger orders are paid by check or wire, and we release them for pickup or shipment once the payment clears. Your sales rep will confirm what applies when we quote your order.

Planning something large? Call ahead and we will set up payment in advance, so your order is ready the day it clears.

Sending us your resale certificate

Send it before the order

Sales tax comes off once a valid certificate is on file, so getting it to us early means your first order is priced right from the start.

Use the form at the top of this page, which collects everything California asks for and lets you sign by typing your name. Or use the state form and attach it instead.

Buying from outside California?

Welcome. Wholesale is open to businesses anywhere in the US. What we need depends on where your order goes.

We ship it to you. No California sales tax. If we collect tax in your state (list below), send a resale certificate your state accepts and we will apply it to your account. Most of these states accept the multistate certificate. Arkansas and Indiana accept the Streamlined Sales Tax certificate, and Louisiana and Virginia use their own forms.

You pick it up here in Garden Grove. California tax applies unless we have a California resale certificate. You do not need a California permit. Fill in the CDTFA-230 or the multistate certificate with your home state permit number and "no sales in California," and the tax comes off.

States we collect in: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia and Washington.

Correct as of August 2026. This grows as we do, so checkout is always the accurate answer for your order.

05 · Before you order

Buying well, from people who watch it every day.

Buy the wall, not the bottle

A full set lands cheaper per color than building the same wall over eight months, and your techs always have the shade a client asks for.

Bulk the staples, not the trends

Base coats, top coats, files and pedicure kits move every week and never go out of style. Seasonal shades work better in smaller runs you can rotate.

Order busy seasons three weeks early

Valentine's pinks, summer brights, holiday reds. Ordering ahead is what keeps the shelf full when the bookings land.

"I visited a bunch of other nail supply stores in the area and C8 is definitely still my go to and favorite! If you're overwhelmed by the options for shops, come here first!!"

Chloe L. Yelp Elite, Oct 2025

Shopping needs no cosmetology license. Buying without sales tax needs a seller's permit. Two separate facts, worth keeping apart. Anyone can walk in and buy at shelf price, and better pricing is earned by the size of the order, not by paperwork. The permit is what unlocks tax free purchasing.

The permit and the certificate are also two different things. The permit is your registration with the state and it carries a number. The certificate is the document you give us, quoting that number and declaring what you are buying for resale.

We verify every permit with the state. California asks a seller to take a resale certificate in good faith, so we check the permit, record the check, and then set your account up tax free. It usually takes a day.

A blanket certificate covers your future orders, so you send it once. We confirm the permit is current, and you let us know if it expires or your business name or address changes.

We are a supplier rather than a tax advisor. We can tell you exactly what we need on file to sell to you without tax. What your own business owes on what it buys is a question for your accountant, since it turns on details we do not have.

Product warranties belong to the manufacturer. Everything comes from the brand or an authorized distributor, in original manufacturer packaging, so the maker's own warranty applies and defects, performance and safety substantiation sit with them. Where something is faulty we point you to the right claim, help you assemble it and follow it through, and whether a replacement comes from us or direct from the maker depends on the item and their process. See warranty support. Full terms of sale are on the wholesale terms and conditions page.
