I got my nails done here 3 months ago and she must've used concrete because they STILL will not…read morecome off without damaging my nails. I came twice to get my acrylics done and while I liked the way the end product looked, the lack of care for the nails and random upcharging ultimately made me stop coming. This last time I came, I had one of the ladies take my old set off since the nail tech laid acrylic over two lifting nails on my first visit and they ended up creating a worse problem. Great, I needed a refresh anyway. She proceeds to put SUPER tiny tips on my nails, which makes them look thin on the sides like I like but it created terrible ingrown nails because it squeezed the sides of the nails. Ultimately I picked a solid red color and she charged me $25 more than the listed price. No reason for it since it's a simple acrylic set with one color. This happened last time and I assumed it was the glitter color was more but it seems she decides on the fly what to charge. Now, three months later, my nails are so thin and have 5 huge pieces of acrylic still stuck to them. I've since moved away and found a new nail tech who refuses to pull them off entirely because they are causing tearing and bleeding on my natural nail. I have religiously done my nails my whole life so three months of this is upsetting and ridiculous. Lastly, they were playing a movie with full blown sex scenes in the salon one of the times when I went and it was so uncomfortable. She apologized after a few minutes of it but continued being standoffish and awkward to me, which was another part of the bad experience. I came back one last time to give them a chance since I liked the end result and color selection, but I made a huge mistake returning.

I was recommended by Vivian, the owner, to see Lisa for a builder gel set. Unfortunately, I'm very…read moredisappointed with the results. The day after my appointment, one of my nails broke, so I went back to have it repaired. Now, less than one week after the original appointment, two additional nails have broken. That makes three broken nails within one week. I paid $70 (plus tip) for this set, so I expected the builder gel to be durable and last significantly longer than a few days. Having multiple nails break this quickly is extremely frustrating, especially after already returning once for a repair. I understand that nails can occasionally break, but three broken nails in less than a week is unacceptable. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend paying $70 for a builder gel set if it's not going to hold up for even a week.

She has the most advanced equipment (drills, vent, pin cure etc.) out of any salon I've been to and does a great job at nail care and nail art. The only irk I had was the french: it wasn't as even and nicely shaped as I would have liked and it felt like the extra charge was a bit much. (Price for nail art is arbitrary) Still, she was very attentive to my needs and I was happy to have all the checkboxes ticked. It may be on the pricier side, but you will get your money's worth!

The workers here are communicative with their clients. I recommend getting your nails done here on a weekday because like many other places, weekends are packed. Note that it's a cash only establishment so be prepared to bring some bills!
