I came in here at 11 o'clock to get a pedicure service and a acrylic tofu which should take no longer than an hour and 30 minutes max. I didn't leave this place until 1:20 PM. I paid for a number two pedicure never received. My massage I had to leave because my back was hurting. My legs were hurting and we weren't even to the design part yet and it had already been three hours. I had to leave with Pauline thick and bulky toes that aren't even filed properly. I requested a half of a refund or a full refund because I am so dissatisfied with this nail salon and the service that I have received. read more

Requested service from one of the employees and she told me the design was too complicated. How can you work in a nail salon and not be able to customize nails to the customers liking. The customer is paying so the customer should get the design they want. Do better 'gentle nails' 100% do not recommend! read more

I made an appointment for 9:00 a.m. with Tracy, who even asked me to spell my name. When I arrived, the only male nail tech in the shop (he sits directly behind the first seat when you walk in) wouldn't even look up or acknowledge me, which felt odd, considering he's always the one I go to to get my nails done. I even this guybut I brushed it off. When I confirmed my appointment, the woman whispered to me, "We can't do your nails." I asked why, and she said it was because I had left them a review. Honestly, I didn't even remember leaving a review, because I'm not one to hold onto things that can be resolved. Instead of addressing or correcting any past issue, she told me they would never do my nails again just because of that review. This is not how good business works. Professional businesses resolve issues with customers -- they don't retaliate or discriminate. Please be mindful of where you spend your money. We should not continue supporting businesses that treat customers this way. read more

I called yesterday at 1030 for two fills and a pedicure for my daughter. Nail appointment at 4. We didn't start until 415 and they didn't start on my daughter until 430 and they finished at 450. Let me not start on NINI. HER CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE WORST AND I MEAN THE WORST. I WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE. Let's not forget how they rushed through our nails. Nini needs to go back to school for customer service training. read more

They are fast, clean and nice which I love, and usually fully staffed, only thing is sometimes, even with an appointment, you might have to wait. Which can be annoying to some so don't bother if you're in a rush or impatient. In my opinion it's worth it, I always get compliments on my nails. My pedi & nails always look good, no matter who does them. read more

Booooo. This place sucks. Prices are clearly printed on the menu sheet - $35 for a full set & they charged DOUBLE for a plain, NO POLISH, clear acrylic set. Yes $70 for a full set, no design. My friend wanted a fill, they said $35. Not as bad considering pricing on menu depicts $25+ but still. Overall service was just okay - nothing special, I would definitely expect better for the prices we were charged. Just know that if you're coming to this salon the prices that they're charging are NOT the same prices that are on the menu or anything even close for that matter. We won't be coming back. read more

pricing is not transparent here, you call and ask how much so you have and idea, but when you get there they will ask what you like and not even gonna say the price until your done and you will be surprised its a lot.. if they suggest something dont just say yes ask how much. I'm a regular here but after my recent trip with a rude lady who did a horrible job, coz not even know the difference of coffin and square not coming back! they overcharge you with a simple nail without any design. read more

My mother and I received good service here and were helped right away as we made an appointment two days ahead. The staff were nice for the most part besides my nail tech who was laughing randomly and getting nervous. I'm not sure why, but it was uncomfortable. Our pedicure service was great, however, our manicure did not turn out how we wanted it to. My mother asked her nail tech to keep her almond nail shape and apply acrylic powder only with no fake nail extensions, but she got neither. She ended up with shorter, round nails and only gel polish. I wanted a full set (square shaped) with marble designs similar to the first pic (edit: it's not showing now and it's not my picture), but the black lines on my nails turned out thicker then the first picture and looked more like water color so I asked the nail tech to add glittery gold lines between the black polish to define the black water colored lines and make it more sharp. My nails are a little too thick and it was filed at a slant so at side angles it looks diagonal. My nails are nice, but it wasn't what I asked for. I showed the nail tech the picture of the nail design I wanted, she took a picture on her phone, and she never looked back at the picture for reference. read more

Bee did a very good job doing my sisters nails but charged her extra because she brought her baby in. They had two appointments and were checked in for it at 3:30, my sister got inside the building @ 3:33 & although, the other individual checked in for them both & LET THEM KNOW SHE WAS GETTING HER CHILD they said it was ok & checked the both of them in!!! Not very good customer service for charging her having her baby with her!! Work is very good but if you are going to charge extra for kids then that should be known before starting any services! What's good service when the customer service isn't as great! read more

PLEASE READ! Absolutely horrendous. Honestly this place deserves 0 stars. I got my nails done yesterday and I even called before going in because I had seen an ad saying $18 for a full set. Wow! That's so cheap it's too good to be true, right? It was. Let me start off by saying, I got married almost a month and a half ago and I still had my wedding set on. They were white and pink ombre and didn't look that bad but they were getting too long and starting to lift and I wanted a fresh set for an upcoming trip. I didn't get the $18 set that I wanted. I kept asking questions just to make sure that's what I was getting and none of them were answered due to the language barrier. Halfway through of her drilling my nails she informed me that my set would be $29. I should've left right then because the rest of my experience was a nightmare. She didn't even take the lifting acrylic nails off! She drilled them down to be flesh with my nail bed, cut me three times during the process (left index, right index and right ring finger) and proceeded to put a clear powder ON TOP of my month and a half old nails! Take note that the worst cut she gave me she was drilling along my cuticle (left index) and KEPT DRILLING as she looked up -away from my hand- and started talking to the person who had just walked in. I also told her multiple times that I did not want gel, I wanted colored powder. After she basically filled my nails and shaped them, she then used gel paint on the top!! I walked out paying $15 more than expected for my set, and extremely disappointed. I didn't have a new set at all! I felt like I had gotten a fill and paid full set price for it!! I attached pictures of my cuts, the gel paint coming off only a few hours later, the crack in the side of my nail and what my nails look like underneath due to her not giving me a new set but rather drilling, shaping and painting my old set. Bottom line... they were anything BUT "Gentle". read more

My mom and I came here on a fling. We couldn't find any nail shop that was open. They took us right in. I'm so glad we came here. Service was friendly, we both got deluxe pedicures an my mom added a full acrylic set an waxing. I wish I would've got their names. We will be back. read more

HORRIBLE! Never come here. Cut off my actual nails and skin really deep. repeatedly told her to stop and kept going making it worse. Didn't even fully take off my acrylic powder. read more

Absolutely horrible place! I went in for a $16.99 full set. They pressured me into a pedicure and tried to sell me gel after I said no several times. My nails are completely botched and I have to have them redone. I was charged $18 for the set, which I didn't even care, even though this was not advertised. And $41 in total. They are thieves and judging by their work, I willing to bet Unlicensed. When I asked for a refund, I was told NO! Do not support shady business and bad work. My pedicure was not even finished with a top coat. STAY AWAY!!!!! read more

Stay away! Went here yesterday and had a bad experience. Wanted acrylic nails, short and natural looking. I requested my nail shape to be round and not box shape. The lady or should I say ladies. Did not - cut my cuticles -massage my hands -did not follow my request for round shape nails. When I told her I don't like box shape, they obviously were taking shit about me in their native tongue. -over priced -poor quality -did add cuticle oil like other salons -did not greet me just told me to sit down Worst nail salon ever!!! I hope the owners read this! read more

I'm pregnant and wanted to have a relax enjoyable day alone. Today I decided to cater myself to a pedicure and the old woman working on my feet straight up had the nerve to ask me if I was fat or pregnant in front of other customer!? I mean really, I'm 8 months pregnant and about to go into labor next month and this woman had the nerve to ask me that so irritating! I had to respond back with no I don't enjoy waddling and I wouldn't be rubbing the fat on my srecommend staying away from here it's obvious these people that run the place are rude and ignorant. Get it together and get some damn manners! read more

never will come here again. i went today to get nails and feet done. i had acrylic on my toes and wanted a soak off but instead the lady who did my nail had ripped them off instead. She ripped my real nail off my toes and then wanted to put new acrylic on them i said no because i didn't want to risk an infection she then proceeded to ask if i wanted them painted and i still said no like what's there to paint if you ripped off my real nail. read more
