    I love my nails Alison always goes above and beyond and uses nothing but the best product she so talented I highly recommend her she is the best vibe

    Always look just like the pictures I find on Pinterest!

    Mezzie is amazing! My nails are always perfect! I have something different every time, she has never failed me. Shop is super cute!

    Thanks Ashley

    I love this place. I know I swore up and down that sparkle nail bar in Elk Grove is the best and they still are. But I think this place keeps up with newer products .. I go to Ashley and she's great. I usually show her pictures of what I want and she replicates it perfectly if not better. It's in downtown Merced I believe. I don't live here so I'm not sure what's around in Merced. But I drive the hour and 20 mins to get my nails done. The building looks old. But inside it's actually very stylish. Each nail tech has their own unique style to their desk. I think there's 7. Two pedicure stations and it's also a hair salon. I recently got my nails done, and I've gotten matte nail polish before but Ashley used a powder and it's amazing. Even after a week they're still matte.

    My daughter needed her nails done for a formal and she wanted something simple but elegant. I had heard great things about this place but had never been there before. When I called the salon they explained they were booked but offered to text if an opening came up. Within a few minutes Mezzi texted me and was able to get us in. I had seen her art on here and was super excited for my daughter. She did an AMAZING JOB on her nails. Exactly what she wanted. Great people, Great environment and FANTASTIC art. I'm a former nail tech from many years ago so I know when I see someone who does good work. This place doesn't disappoint Thanks Mezzi!

    Love my nails!!!

    Went here for the first time and Bri did an AMAZING JOB!!! She's very friendly she took her time and I really enjoyed the salon.

    got my nails done for the first time here and Ashley did an amazing job, she did even better than the picture i used for inspiration 10/10 and she was super nice too!

    She gives you what you ask for.

    I started following Alison on instagram and it was love at first sight. She is the best and so down to earth. The salon is beautiful. The workers are really sweet and the atmosphere is chill. If you want the best this is the place!!!

    I walked in with a photo off Pinterest and Mezzie gave me EXACTLY what I wanted! She's adorable, my nails are adorable, and I have a new nail salon. Winning!!!

    Amazing job on my nails like always I am thankful to have the best nail tech doing my nails !! Always on top of things love you.

    Short, flared, bling... I wanted to try something new! Super pleased!

    I was meaning to try this place out for a long time after finding them on Insatgram, and I was really excited to finally go! I called on a Monday to make an appointment for my friend and me, but I couldn't get through. We decided to stop by and make an appointment in person since we were near by. When we went inside we were greated by a friendly lady who asked how she could help us. We told her we wanted to make an appointment, and she asked us what day we were looking for; we told her early Thursday morning. She tried to see if anyone was available, but they were out to lunch, so she took down our numbers and said they'd give us a call when they were back. I swear I spent all day looking at my phone waiting for their call, and I was kind of bummed because I thought they weren't going to call back! But the next day I got a call! (I'll admitt I was very happy!) So we finally went in on Thursday, and again we were greated by a friendly lady (I think she was the owner). Our appointments were at 9am, and we waited for a few minutes before the girls who were going to do our nails got there, but I mean it was ok, 9am is a little early. The atmosphere in the nails salon was great! They played music, the nail techs talked to one another, and they even included us in their conversations! It was a very comfortable experience. It was great to see that everyone got along so well and they were all super nice! My friend got gel nails and they looked super cute! I got a full set of acrylics, and I was super pleased with them! I got my nails done by Bri (I think that's how you spell it). She was so nice! I told her I usually only get one color but I wanted to try something new, maybe different colors, or glitter with a little bling. She showed me colors that would go well with the color I chose, and we went from there. She asked what shape I wanted, and I told her I wanted squared. I was afraid to get the flared shape, but she assured me they wouldn't be to flared if I wanted to try them. I thought "oh what the heck, go big or go home!" So I decided to get flared nails! She did an amazing job! My nails were short, just how I like them, and had just enough bling! I would recommend this place to anyone! But make sure you make an appointment, these ladies get booked quickly! Why wouldn't they!? They're great!

    The best nail tech in the area. Consistent, creative, clean, I always leave happy. Look at the pics, they are all of my nails and Alison comes up with something different everytime.

    I have been going to Mara for about 5 years now. Sometimes I go in there with no clue in mind of what I want on my nails & Mara never disappoints. Not only is she good at what she does but she's also very sweet. Always greeting people as they walk in. Love my time with her & I always walk out satisfied with a smile on my face.

It felt pretty clean but by far it was the most expensive and the worst acrylic fill I have ever gotten. I keep my nails totally basic. I don't even usually get color on them just nude acrylic powder and clearcoat. This is what I asked for, but somehow it ended up with polish. My nails are not shaped well and there are rough uneven edges. Lots of Dips & bumps and just don't look right. To be honest I am kind of embarrassed of them. They def don't look like I just got them freshly filled. I did have a broken nail, which would add to the cost, but I still think that a little over $70 was quite steep. The lady was nice and friendly, but I will not be returning. I don't mind paying the price if the finished result looks nice. I am very disappointed to say the least. I was really hoping that I had found a new nail salon to visit often. Unfortunately I will not be returning.

This month I had a wedding on April 11 and I went to do a manicure two days before at the 8th , they did a manicure (jelly) and pedicure jelly too and removed my mustache total $95.00 plus $10 as a tip. The first time I went they did a bad job at jelly French manicure within two days one of my nails got chipped and I went back two days later and they told me to come to the next day and the lady was not nice, I decided don't come back but I made a big mistake and I went again because I wanted to give them another chance and I shouldn't. My nails started chipping in about two days, I was very busy I couldn't go back sooner, but when you do the check in they send you a message, so I messaged them let them know about the lausy job they did but they didn't reply, I got really busy I couldn't go right away but the finger nail polish was falling like she just did a basic manicure but I asked her ( the owner) I wanted a jelly manicure and I paid for it $45.00 I have couple years doing jelly manicure I used to go with a lady that do a good job and last me untill I decided to have new color sometimes last a month and the polish never come out, this time come out very easy, so either she didn't do jelly stuff as I asked her or the owner didn't prepare the finger nail right or something happened because I'm about two days stared peeling off so I went to talk to her and she was just stared to do a manicure for a client and I explained to her when she sent the lady to wash her hands I was nice at that time but the owner had and actitud and told me to wait for her I thought ok I think she is understanding what is going on, when finally she finished after about 40 minutes she told me she couldn't do anything, really lady! You told me you couldn't do anything after I waited 40 minutes why she didn't say it before when I just came in and I explained to her. I felt insulted no body does that and I don't understand how they do a bad job and I saw people coming in all the time, made me believe that because I'm Latina it's why they treated me like that and they don't care the quality of service latinos get. I just saw another bad review but in that case the lady is Afroamericano. Anyways I feel sorry for people to get bad treatment from them they don't deserve our business, when I was living I told the owner written a review and never came back and she told me she won't appreciate my business too and I didn't look back but I heard a loud noise I think she shouted the door as soon as a leave because we were standing close to the door, she is rude she doesn't deserve any business. They should be permanently closed to her salon , I'll scale this case because this is not how you treat people in America maybe from where she is but no here. Do yourself a favor and don't go there if you don't want a lousy job and bad treatment because they are not friendly they look like you have two heads just disgusting!

When my mom got there, the front desk informed her that the masseuse did not show up. They even tried calling the masseuse and weren't able to make no contact. Very disappointing. The front desk was apologetic, rescheduled her, and told her she would get 20 percent off for her next appt, which I already paid for online. Our experience with this salon was that it's very unorganized and a total waste of time. I definitely would not recommend as I found my experience with them to be very unprofessional and their online booking system and phone seems to not work properly!

I showed up on time. But from the minute I arrived they started by shouting to me from the other end of the room. They wouldn't listen to me and just kept shouting sit, sit. When I sat down for pedicure, even though 4 of them were not busy, they made me wait. Ok, I assumed may be they need a break and patiently waited. Then the lady that was doing my pedicure made my nails bleed because she was being aggressive. I had never have that happen. But the worst came when it was time for the manicure to start, they asked if I would like to have it done at the same time as the pedicure. I reminded them again that I want to do gel x. They kept talking to me, multiple of them at the same time from across the whole place, whether I want just to paint my nails gel or get acrylic filling. I said again gelX. They spent several minutes going back and forth asking paint with just gel nail polish or acrylic. Saying I don't know what she wants, talking about me as if I wasn't in front of them. They took close to 5 minutes of odd talking about me with each other and awkward silence before saying they don't do gelX. It didn't matter that they told me and took reservation for gelX. By this time; the pedicure was almost done. I gave up and said I will do acrylic. They proceeded to tell me that i should wait my turn for acrylic now because I didn't tell them that is what I needed to do. The worst part came when one of the ladies who was shouting at me from across the room sat to do my acrylic manicure. The whole time she was acting as if i was her enemy, would not listen my questions if she can make the nails shorter and that they matched, which they didn't. She kept telling me my nails are too big, can't match the size or shape in the different fingers. Then while trying to fix a mistake she made with one of nails, she glued her skin to mine in my ring finger tip. She kept pulling it even though I kept telling her it is taking off my skin. After multiple attempts to pull it apart when it was clear that it was not happening and that it hurt as hell. She finally brought acetone to separate our fingers and even then wouldn't let the chemical do its job, she snatched her fingers and peeled my skin This was by a mile the worst nail service I have ever received. And the end product is the worst, uneven and lumpy manicure that is not even cleaned up under the nails. The whole time they were clearly gossiping about me and mocking me loudly in a language I don't know. It was terrible customer service. I was the only black person in the store. I hope this had nothing to do with that. But after reading experience of another black person here; I have to wonder. Either way; I will never step foot in this place ever again

All of these ladies schedules on are time, like a well-oiled machine. But instead I found something even better, a home that can take care of all of my "I deserve this" needs. The salons owner Melissa who takes care of my nails is an absolutely fabulous conversationalist but you won't hurt her feelings if you say you just rather sit and listen to your music or surf the web on your phone. Sage who does my hair. She can do any kind of hair, color, highlights extensions. If you're a guy you need a haircut or a little kid you need a haircut then Sage is your person. You've got Denise who does waxes, eyebrows, facials and a whole host of other things. There are additional Hair & Nail estheticians in the salon but I just can't remember their names at this time. All I can say is as soon as they get it a masseuse in I will be spending my entire Fridays in there. Thank goodness they are all young, well young based on my age. This means they won't be retiring soon and I will have Melissa and the whole crew for a long long time. If you are time oriented and need an appointment they are perfect if you just need to drop in they are perfect but I do suggest you call ahead if you want to drop in because they are just that busy. And one more thing you get what you pay for. You go to a cheap salon where they push people through like animals to a slaughterhouse, you get sloppy jobs. You come here and you get a super professional job and well worth every penny to look as beautiful as you can be. I dare you to be as beautiful on the outside with the help of these ladies as you are on the inside. This was written from my experience and my heart.
