Hands down this is the best salon in town! All of the nail technicians do a phenomenal job! My favorite go-to-technicians are Emily and Chris, but I trust all of them would do a great job! I look forward to many more years of being your customer. Thanks and God bless!
I’ve been coming here for over 3 months now, and it’s the best manicure place I’ve found. The prices are great, and everyone is very skilled and friendly. I always leave happy with the results. Highly recommend!
I had left another salon where the lady botched my nails. I had dip with a basic design (black base with silver vines) and it was lumpy, uneven, and overall sloppy. I came to Elegant Nails about in tears and they were able to fit me in and fix them. I can’t even describe how grateful and impressed I am. Kris has an excellent attention to detail and did an amazing job. I should’ve come here first and I’ll definitely be coming back.
Elegant Nails is hands down the best! Their meticulous attention to detail, expert technique, and ever-evolving selection of gorgeous colors and design options truly set them apart. On top of that, their customer service is consistently exceptional—friendly, professional, and welcoming—and their pricing is very reasonable. It’s rare to find this level of quality all in one place. I highly recommend them for any service—nails, pedicures, waxing etc. Come visit them—you’ll be so glad you did!
I only work with Emily and she’s fantastic. I’m someone who gets nail designs and I just show her a picture and she makes it happen. I get so many compliments on my nails ALL the time. It’s also super easy to make an appointment and I never have concerns about the service. I’d definitely recommend, ask for Emily!
