I just got my nails done by Fiona and she did an amazing job! She got the exact design I wanted and paid great attention to detail. She was also very patient, welcoming, and made the whole experience really comfortable. I’ll definitely be coming back and would recommend her.
I had a complimentary nail service with Nancy, and I was genuinely impressed. She was incredibly detail-oriented and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment. You can really tell she cares about both her work and her clients. The final result was absolutely beautiful — clean, elegant, and exactly what I wanted. The shaping, cuticle work, and finish were all done so carefully. If you’re looking for someone who is proㅣㅣpatient, and truly skilled, I highly recommend Nancy. I would definitely come back and trust her with my nails again.
I have generally had great service from this salon, but my recent visit left me with a fairly lower quality manicure than my visit earlier this year in April. I got the same service both times - a shellac cat eye manicure, and on my first visit the retention was fantastic (no chipping for at least 2 weeks). After my recent visit, however, I experienced some slight chipping off of a nail 5 days after my Dec 26th appointment, which was a bit concerning given that I haven't changed any habits in my usual nail care/haven't been rough on my nails after my manicure in any way. Additionally, I have noticed that the colour on my nails isn't as solid or opaque as it was from my visit earlier this year. Photos are of the April manicure and the more recent one - the difference in consistency is notable.
I absolutely loved the service! I’m so happy with the results the work is beautiful and very detailed. The French manicure turned out perfect, clean, and elegant. A huge thank you to Nora for such a gorgeous manicure. She was professional, careful, and made sure everything looked amazing. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!!!
✨ Such an amazing experience! ✨ My friends and i came in for an acrylic extension with nail design, and my nail technician went above and beyond. They were so detail-oriented, making sure every step looked perfect, and really listened to what I wanted. The whole team is warm and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about their clients and take the time to make sure you leave happy with your nails. I absolutely love the results and couldn’t be happier. Definitely my go-to spot from now on!
