Nina did my nails and did the BEST job of my dream nails! There was no wait and she spent a lot of time with the intricate details! All of the staff offer warm hospitality and I would definitely come back!
I have been coming to this salon for over a year now and is my go to spot for manis and pedis. I even got my wedding nails here too & loved them! Thi is an amazing nail tech, she has immense attention to detail. Really recommend this place!
Thi did my nails & did the best job ever! Love my nails & will definitely be back :) I got the builder gel set, love them.
Repeat Customer: I’ve been coming here for a while now and the service and quality of the nails are always amazing. The staff are all super nice and the owner Ken always remembers me. Super clean and great studio with good music and cooking shows playing in the background I love it. I usually get a full acrylic set and a basic pedi with gel. Especially love when they are done at the same time to save time. I always have random nail requests I see on Pinterest or Instagram but they always “nail” the designs and get it right everytime 🫶🎀🙏 Thi and Ken are especially great!
It was my second time coming to this establishment and I don't know that I'll be coming back if there's not an attempt to fix this experience. I went in asking for a gel manicure and a gel polish change on my feet. I was quoted 35 for the manicure and 25 for my feet. Let's start with the pedicure. I told him I wanted my nails longer and square. At the end of the service I looked down and my toes are two different shapes and sizes to which his initial response was ok I'll file the other one. Um. No. So they had to do a layer of acrylic to make them match. Not thrilled about it because it took time growing out my natural nails but whatever. On to the majority of my issues, the gel manicure. I want to note my last gel manicure was at this same establishment. First he attempted to drill off all the gel. After nail number two I told him I wasn't comfortable with that much drilling of my natural nail. He says ok and proceeds to paint something on my nails and try to scrape the gel off which wasn't working. So he then took out a file and started trying to aggressively use the file to get the gel off and after breaking my nail I told him I was done with that type of service and questioned why my nails were foiled for a gel soak off like normal. Someone else comes over and confirms thats what should be happening and I request a different person. About 15 minutes later a girl comes out and starts doing my nails. She tells me my nail is broken and I told her he broke my nail and she said ok I'll fix it with dip. I said ok and after he was done with my gel polish on my toes I asked to be moved to a desk. So she proceeds with my manicure and once she painted one coat of the color I see this huge bump on the nail she fixed with dip. I told her it looked terrible and I wasn't leaving it like that and she said well I needed to fix it I said that's fine but do a thin layer not just some mound. So she fixes that paints my nails and its done. I paid $62.53 total and I left because regardless of the lack of service I received I'm not the type of person who won't pay. But now I'm going to post photos of this "manicure" I received. It looks liked a toddler ripped at my skin. It looks terrible, my nails are uneven and the polish looks terrible. I'm so utterly disappointed and I truly hope the store owner will make this situation right.
