Linda was amazing, super sweet, and professional. Her nails are crisp and the products used are TOP quality. 100% will be back, thank you for the bomb nails

Veronica V.

Had a refill done. Nails came out cute. Staff were nice. However, a couple days later started to see a green streak under the acrylic nail. Turns out I got a bacterial fungus infection from the nail. I never get my nails done and the one time i do this happens.

Gorgeous gel nails. My favorite look by far! The shop owner Linda did my nails for the first time and they are my favorite so far! She introduced me to a new more modern look and I think I'll stick to this look. I love all the nails artists here. So friendly and they are careful in their work. I don't ever get cuts and I appreciate that. Thank you so much ladies!

Linda did my nails here and she is amazing! My nails turned out so beautiful. She took her time and was very detailed with the shape. I'm so happy I came here. I highly recommend this place. Everyone was friendly and professional

Braelyn L.

Beautiful nails and such kind, patient staff. I wanted very neutral and short acrylic nails for my wedding and they delivered exactly what I wanted! I love my nails.

I came at around 5:45 after calling and they willingly took us in. Linda was very sweet and was willing to stay past closing time to make sure I was satisfied with my nails. There was no burning during drilling and curing. She asked for my approval with every step.

This was my first set here, I really enjoy the people there I always bring my own polish because there polish collection isn't the greatest

New to the area and thought I'd try out a local shop. I am glad i went there. The owner is adorable and really nice and friendly. The staff are all nice, they recommended the gel builder and i am glad i tried it. I've been back 3 times since. My nails and toes look great after every service. Prices are reasonable, it's a fairly calming place, simple aesthetic and not once have i felt like they are rushing a service. They take their time. read more

It honestly saddens me to leave this review because the owner was very sweet. I waited two weeks before writing this to be fair but my nails did not last. Before booking, I called and specifically asked if they do "polygel" and I was told yes. However, when I arrived, I was told they use builder gel instead and that it's the same thing...which it's not. There are differences between hard gel, polygel, and builder gel. I decided to give her a chance anyway. Unfortunately, the results didn't hold up. By day 14, three nails were fully lifting, which shouldn't happen that quickly with proper application. I also have to mention the cleanliness. The shop was not very clean, and the brush used to dust off my hands had visible black buildup on it, which was concerning. Again, the owner was kind, and I really wanted to like this place, but between being misinformed and the quality not lasting, I wouldn't return. read more

Shame on you Linda Pham! I reported her to bbb for improper tool cleaning and lack of posting over charges on colors and credit card usage but I guess she should also post outside beware of dog inside! Meaning you ain't going in there to get yourself something you want but what she forces you to do. In the response to bbb she had the audacity to create a story about me accusing me of causing a scene and yelling which wasn't the case as you can follow from my previous review she was rude and was not emphatic to fix her own mistakes and own up to it. Instead she preferred to yet make me wait longer and take an eyebrow service because they were gonna pay. I was upset yes. I posted a review yes. We are entitled to this. But to make false accusations to make your "side of the story" against my claims just isn't right. I was with my two young kids and this woman is saying I started screaming and saying bad words. Please no need to make things up in order to not have to take responsibility for your lack of action when you had the opportunity to take but instead decided to talk bad about me to the clients you were tending while I was waiting and then asked me to wait longer when it was my turn for you to fix your mistakes for the 3rd time. You just didn't like that I didn't stay quiet like your other clients who are too afraid to tell you so. Get off that high horse. I know you have cameras maybe you should pull the recordings up from that day to refresh your memory Linda. And yea I did say I was going to leave you a bad yelp review and I would do it 5 times more just like you charge for your crappy service! Best of luck to you and your famous poop nails. There's a cuss word for you. Haha. And sure Linda have your customers post good reviews in exchange of offering discounts off your ridiculously high priced services that aren't worth it! If you are new and looking for the truth see all the bad reviews first before attempting to go here. I'm not a liar. You can see I'm not the only one with the same issues they have been brought up in the past. I'm just not afraid to speak up and say it. read more

She really took her time and checked in with me multiple times to make sure it was what I wanted. She was very sweet and her work is amazing. The nails were immaculate 3 weeks later when I came in for a fill. I didn't catch the name of my tech on my second visit, but wow she was fast. Multiple times through the service she paused to check in that I liked the length, shape, color, design etc. I appreciate that so much because we all know it can be hard to speak up when something isn't quite what we want. And omg she was fast. She removed my previous design, filled/shaped, and painted in just 40 mins. Such a excellent experience 10/10 The salon itself is clean and very cute.

I ended up waiting about an hour while staff kept going back and forth, clearly frustrated about who was going to deal with my nail. It was very uncomfortable and unprofessional. Eventually, a different technician took over, and the service was rough and painful. She was pulling my hand, filing aggressively on the sides, and it actually hurt. The nail was done carelessly and didn't even match the rest of my set. On top of that, the attitude was obvious. Between the tone, looks, and the way they were going back and forth in their language, it was clear I was being treated like an inconvenience instead of a paying customer. Don't assume customers don't notice just because you're speaking another language. After years of loyalty, this was extremely disappointing. I felt disrespected and unwelcome. They lost a long-time customer.

My niece was sat immediately, and I waited only about 5 minutes.

I really appreciated that they were careful and did not hurt any of us while pushing back or trimming our cuticles (so many salons rush this and it hurts!). My gel nails came out really nicely. No bubbles, overlap on my skin, or weird edges, and I could tell that they prepped my nail beds really well so the gel will definitely be staying on for a while. My friend got acrylics with cat-eye polish and they look FANTASTIC. I will note that the color books are labeled with the same numbers for different colors in different books, so be sure to show your nail tech the exact book/color to prevent mix ups! Overall, would def recommend this to a friend and will be back next time I want my nails done!

I never have to worry about them hurting or cutting me, or leaving rough edges. And now, they are REALLY stepping it up in their designs. I found this design on Pinterest, showed ANA, and gave her artistic freedom. Best set I've ever had! I love the 3D feel. It appeals to my adhd. There are flowers, a snake, and water droplets. Pearl in the flower center. Snake and flowers have soft touches of pink. No eyes on the snake though, in case it looked creepy lol but the head is actually shaped, not just a noodle

I'm genuinely so happy with the results, and I'm so happy to have found a nail salon that makes me feel heard and comfortable.

She really took her time and checked in with me multiple times to make sure it was what I wanted. She was very sweet and her work is amazing. The nails were immaculate 3 weeks later when I came in for a fill. I didn't catch the name of my tech on my second visit, but wow she was fast. Multiple times through the service she paused to check in that I liked the length, shape, color, design etc. I appreciate that so much because we all know it can be hard to speak up when something isn't quite what we want. And omg she was fast. She removed my previous design, filled/shaped, and painted in just 40 mins. Such a excellent experience 10/10 The salon itself is clean and very cute. The pedicure chairs look new still. I recommend calling and making an appointment if you intend to try them out, they can get pretty booked.

My only complaint is that they didn't really clean up my cuticles but next time I'll request that. You would think that's a given but a lot of places don't do cuticles anymore. I also added callous removal to my pedicure and felt like she barely scrubbed my feet, I had to go home and do it. The pedicure was not great but I like the manicure.

I showed a picture of round in case she didn't understand and, she said it was too short to make round, how is that even possible? Also, they grind your nails so far down they thin out...

Just let all my customers know I usually don't write the response back to my customers on here, because I don't pay for yelp and I don't need to waste my time to go up here to argue with someone not normal and not a nice person at all. I had people not happy and yeld me bad too but not like a person down below. Read her the reviews that she wrote about me and talk bad about me because she lie a lot on there. Yes i did her nails at first she love the nails I usually ask my customers all the time do you like your nails through the service. She love it and happy till the end . When she finished and pay the fee to credit card I told her go get cash at stater for free but she got mad at me and 30 mins after she came back when I was working on my client she told me very rude in front of my customers fixed her nails right the way. Just want to let you know my nails wasn't like that. I been do nails for long time the ombré nails look very nice but 30mins after look different. I was upset with the way she acted very rude then she told me she working in banking bussiness. I know as the business owner or customers service no matter how nice you are sometimes you run into someone not nice like the one I had too bad. Look at her reviews she not a nice person at all. Not only me a victim a lot of bad yeld that she did. My English is second language but look at her toxic person not nice at all. She also reported me but I wrote the truth about her . I did not a lie person at all I know I'm not perfect but not a bad person like she wrote about me thank you read more

I had gone to idol nails and spa about 2 weeks ago and needed a fill but I decided to try famous nails since it was closer to home. I am so thankful that I came to get my fill here because Linda was so honest about the job idol nails had done. She really opened my eyes on what the coffin nail shape should be. I'm also so thankful that she fixed them up for me. She didn't have to take her time to do that but she did. Linda also suggested some colors and encouraged me to be extra on my nail color. I will definitely be going there to get my mani and pedi. I am also so mad at myself because I didn't give her a tip, I totally forgot to tell her to put it into the payment since I paid with my card and I didn't have cash. She really deserved it though! read more

I recently visited Famous Nails and was thoroughly impressed by their exceptional customer service and creative abilities. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was attentive and took the time to understand exactly what I wanted. Their creative skills are truly outstanding - my nails turned out even better than I had imagined! The attention to detail and artistic flair they put into their work is simply amazing. I highly recommend this salon and particularly Linda, to anyone looking for top-notch service and beautifully crafted nails. I'll definitely be returning! read more
