    I'm so obsessed and happy with my acrylic nails Kathy is the best her work talk for itself and her customer service is the best

    No response after I was told over the phone to send pictures and description so they can get back to me.

    I went in for something very simple. Just a gel pedicure and clear gel manicure. I have never been so disappointed by a service before. I have one injured nail, it's on my pinky. A new nail is growing underneath. I told who was doing my manicure to leave it alone and she proceeded to cut the old nail off. This caused me so much pain. I repeated for her to just leave it alone as it is still healing and I don't want to risk infection and she continued to chip away at it. This caused me so much discomfort for the next few days. Causing it to bleed at work. The clear gel manicure over all looked horrible. Nails were cut and filed differently and she only did what seemed like one coat and the top coat. She then just DOUSED my hands in oil. And left them like that? I am so confused. The pedicure was OK however I just wasnt feeling the most relaxed. They keep chipping away at an insane amount of skin around the nail. Then she said I cut my own nails too short, but they look okay to me. And I still have enough nails even on my pinky for the gel to show. I don't understand the commentary. I reached out, followed the instructions to send pics through text and haven't hear back since. When someone comes in saying to leave a finger alone, I think it's important to listen. This should have been very easy and simple. Just something to make me feel put together as my nail is still healing. I couldn't even relax in my chair. All of this for 75 dollars. Not worth it, especially when given the opportunity to correct this or talk outside of a review. Lack of accountability. After an experience like this, now I know to expect way less from this business. Goes to show a lot about how your business is ran. Money hungry and quality is low.

    DONT COME HERE!!!!!! FUNGUS AND HORRIBLE SERVICE.

    DONT COME HERE!!!!!! made an appt for two people and the dumb receptionist didn't read right and thought it was for one so they took walk ins before my appt. got french toes done and all were uneven lengths. DONT COME HERE UNLESS YOU WANT FUNGUS AND HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!!!!! don't be fooled just because its fancy inside doesn't mean they're not dirty asf.

    I'm honestly obsessed with my nails!! They came out sooo cute, exactly what I wanted. The attention to detail is amazing and you can tell they really care about their work. The service is always the best everyone is so friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel comfortable the entire time. They take their time to make sure everything is perfect, which I really appreciate. On top of that, the salon itself is super clean and well kept, which makes the whole experience even better. You can tell they prioritize hygiene and professionalism. Overall, I always leave happy and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend!!

    Terrible quality!

    I'm extremely disappointed with our experience. My daughter and I went in together, and when we met back at the front desk, I immediately noticed her nails were crooked and bulky. The shape was uneven and clearly not symmetrical. I calmly brought it to the receptionist's attention, who then called over the manager. I explained the issue and showed him exactly where the nails were crooked and thick. By this point, I was becoming uncomfortable because people in the salon were staring, and what should have been a simple correction turned into an embarrassing situation. The manager said the nail tech could fix them, but his tone was dismissive and unpleasant, which made my daughter feel embarrassed. When the nail technician came up, she questioned the issue again and began making excuses -- saying it was due to three layers of polish and that she didn't see them as crooked. Instead of acknowledging the problem, they were focused on defending the work. At that point, I told them not to fix it because if they genuinely couldn't see the issue, I didn't trust the correction would be done properly. What upset me even more was that no discount, partial refund, or apology was offered despite the obvious poor quality and the uncomfortable experience we were put through. We paid full price and left feeling frustrated, embarrassed, and unheard. I will not be returning.

    I came in for a refill and walked away so happy with my new fruit nails. I love the TV that shows the nails they've done in the past. And I always remember to have a cup of their fruit water.

    Toe is irritated, slightly swollen and there is dried blood in the crevices.

    I came here for a gel x set and while the nails themselves came out really nice -- the design is clean and exactly what I asked for -- I can't help but feel the price was steep. $105 for medium gel x felt overpriced compared to other places I've been. Service was quick, which I appreciated, but the overall experience could have been better. At another salon I visited in Houston, the receptionist greeted every guest warmly and made sure to offer drinks, which added a thoughtful and welcoming touch. Here, I didn't notice that same level of attentiveness or hospitality, and it made a difference in how the visit felt. If you're looking for fast service and quality design, this place delivers. But if you value the extra touches and a more inviting atmosphere for the price point, there are definitely salons out there that do it better. By the way they don't give you an estimate of price. So make sure to ask before. And for kids if you wouldn't want gel on them make sure to ask for regular polish.

    0 stars if I could this WAS my go to spot until they kept messing up my nails! First it was my hands they lifted DAYS after and they denied fixing them for me.. I gave it a second try with my feet and that was the breaking point thick as hell to the point where it was painful not just that they took forever, I'm guessing they had no idea what they were doing... STAY AWAY Not to mention the lady doing my husbands feet turns to me and says out loud she seen my husband there before with another woman with a smile on her face? Idk if she thought it was funny but I felt uncomfortable so didn't say anything the she proceeded to paint his nails with clear polish without his consent.. shed greet him every time with a flirty look without even looking my way... unprofessional asf They clearly brush off the real issue.. hire professionals lady!

    I came in as a walk in with my daughter at noon. The receptionist was welcoming & took us right away. Establishment was clean and bright with classic colors. The floral corner has a queen back chair and swing, for picture taking. We both wanted a mani/pedi which took about an hour. Average cost for Gel mani and regular pedi was about $60...they were very nice and efficient. Excellent quality service. I enjoyed the pampering.

    Extremely, extremely horrible experience -- genuinely one of the worst nail salon experiences I've ever had. The most basic set of nails that were asked to be done (an almond French tip Gel-X) came out SO bad it was honestly embarrassing. The shape was uneven, the nails were all going in completely different directions, the polish was messy and crooked, and the entire set looked extremely rushed and sloppy. It looked like zero care or attention was put into the work. When we brought it up to the front desk, a young girl who clearly cannot handle any type of situation on her own had to go get the salon manager. Instead of taking responsibility and fixing what was very clearly wrong, he immediately started making every excuse in the world. What makes this even more ridiculous is that the staff themselves literally admitted that the nails did not look good -- yet they still continued to defend the work and make excuse after excuse. It turned into an uncomfortable and unnecessary back-and-forth instead of the staff simply being professional and fixing their own mistake. There was absolutely no accountability, no urgency to make things right, and no real attempt to provide decent customer service. And don't be fooled by the "complimentary drinks" they advertise. The young girls working there offer you drinks, ask what you would like, and then never bring them out at all. It feels disorganized, careless, and completely unprofessional. This place is extremely unorganized and unprofessional. The staff are defensive, unwelcoming, and clearly not trained to handle even the simplest customer concern. There is absolutely no accountability, no customer service, and no pride in their work. Save your money, your time, and your patience. I would never come back here and would strongly warn anyone thinking about booking an appointment to go literally anywhere else.

Lately though, the quality has really gone downhill. The products they're using now feel cheap, and my nails don't last nearly as long as they used to. What really pushed me to leave this review was my experience today with Vivian. I walked in since they accept walk-ins, and she immediately told me they were completely booked for the next hour. I asked if I could schedule something for later, and she said no because they were booked. When I tried clarifying what she meant, she got extremely rude and argumentative. We literally went back and forth over something so simple. This isn't the first bad interaction with her either. She's consistently rude, talks badly about customers, and creates an uncomfortable environment whenever the manager isn't there. I eventually matched her energy because of how disrespectful she was being, and suddenly her attitude changed. I've supported this salon for years, but customer service matters. Being told to "make an appointment next time" and then immediately being told they "don't do appointments" made absolutely no sense. I'm disappointed because this place used to be worth coming to.
