If I could give zero stars, I would only because I called in advanced. I called at around 6:45 to ask what time they would close and how much it would be to fix one single acrylic. They told me they closed at 7:30 and that fixing an acrylic would be $10 plus which was not an issue. I let them know. I was on my way. I got there at 7:05 and I was seated immediately And the nail tech started to pull out gel, X equipment. I let her know that I wanted my acrylic fixed with acrylic not gel x. She told me well all she could do was gel X because look at the time they're closing so I got up and left and she didn't care. She said that she was only gonna do gel X because she's closed. How are they gonna make you pay for something that you don't even want on top of I just got this full set done here on the first and one full nail popped off. read more

I used to like this place. But recently I had a horrible experience, mistakes back to back and when I asked kindly if she can fix it, she rudely asked me to be quiet sit back and let her do her job. Coming from the owner herself., very unprofessional, horrible customer service. I got gel X she put a blob of gel and let it dry lifting up, I asked her to fix it because my nail look like it was lifted up off my nail, she rudely fixed it, but continued to do the same, when I told her she was burning my nail, she told me beauty is pain.not going back. Payed $95 for per and full set read more

if i had the chance to put a 0 i will let me tell you why i would put a 0 i went got a pedicure they didn't tell me the price they told me to sit down i was waiting for a hr second of all they cut my nails really ugly and they hurt both of my big toes they used use tools and i didn't see them clean after they used it and when they was gonna exfoliate my foot they use a chesse grinder that was dirty and next day i got a blister on my foot because they don't clean the tools that they used read more

I stop going there because you don't get what you pay for, I payed for Callus removal with the gel and all I got was a wash and after telling them all they said was I didn't need it but still charged, on top of that they cut me so bad my finger was dripping blood on to my jean. Let alone their attitude if you don't get what they want. Personally I do not recommend this place . read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. It's starts off with their rude attitudes when you walk in and not wanting to help you. Not to mention the fungus they've gave to multiple people and sores that don't heal. They don't properly clean their tools they use daily, just a quick wipe down. I would suggest to find a better place. read more

Omg where do i start...... Came in to get my nails done like you see in the first picture..... Than long story short.... i wanted butterfly's lady did butterfly's but she decided to do a ombre on my nails which i thought was a good idea.... but omg that was not a ombre .. idk why these ladies agree to a design they can't do I was mad but wasnt trying to be rude so i asked one of the ladies there when can i come back to get it fixed she didnt tell me when.... she just told the owner and owner was so rude about it... she tried to half ass my nails.. Long story short I've always liked to come here to get my nails and toe nails done but after this experience and after how the owner was acting hell no i ain't going back i rather just wait a hour or two at kathys nails... read more

this place is a joke! she started doing my nails, had me go to the pedicure chair for a pedicure where I asked this ignorant man to put acrylic on my toes. he ignores me all 3 times and continued to try to put paint on my toes then when I asked him why he was doing something I didn't want he said because my toes are nice and dont need acrylic so I had to get loud with him. now because I yelled at him I'm in the chair just sitting here waiting because they stopped tp do other peoples. I've been waiting for over an hour With half done nails and toes I'm beyond pissed read more

WARNING!!!! This place is horrible!!!!! My suggestion is Don't come here !!! There's other places around that will offer better service and better quality!!!!! Jenny/Jennifer the "manager" was laying down and took like 10 minutes to get up to help my sister in law she kept yawning in her face and mad, did her nails really bad like pointy not the way she had said, and when we told her she responded she won't help her again wow very rude!!! At least we deserved an apology or a way to fix the problem and she had such a bad, bad attitude smh!!! read more

Got super short gel nail full set - $25 (when i say super short bihh i mean SUPER short, i was so mad.) One nail was even wayyy shorter than the rest. Went back 2 weeks later for a much needed FILL and they charged me $23. This place always charges different prices. They are a rip off. Always ASK BEFORE u get ur service done or they WILL charge more. Ive come here a few times to see if i was just trippin, bt nope. They are scamming people. They DO NOT operate during the posted business hours, they open later and close earlier than what the sign says. They DO NOT use sanitized tools per customer. The shop is low budget af to be honest. Some of the employees are really friendly. They give free bottles of lotion during christmas. They are just unsanitary af. They wont even post their health inspection letter grade so yea. Currently looking for a new nail spot! read more

I came here April 9th, 2021 and I was in love with my nails! I loved how they came out and the woman on the end chair did a great job with my nails & pedicure. April 10th I notice some lifting on a few nails but I'm like.. okay whatever. April 11th 2 nails popped off.. I knew she didn't prep them well because she only ran 1 machine over my nails instead of the other correct ones. So i work a lot and I'm usually very busy but I decided to call April 13th finally to go in..(hasn't even been 5 days) and no one answers. April 14th I went in today and she wasn't there. The owner was. I explained to her in a room full of customers that my nails all came off and it hasn't even been a week. She said I had 2 days to come in and explain that my nails were falling off and that she won't be able to help me that she'll charge me 1/2 off...half off?? Mind you I tipped my nail girl $40 because I was happy with the job in total I paid over $100. They didn't even last me 2 weeks! what a complete joke this place is. If you want your nails to fall off within the few days and FUNGUS to grow on your natural nails please come here never going back.. read more

It was my first time here with my friend and didn't like the experience at all. I wanted to get a fill on my real nails with dip powdered but didn't offer what I wanted. So the nail lady used acrylic with powder. I felt like I was rushed to get my nails done. She was very tough on my nails. It was painful to have my nails on and the nails are cheap. My nail broke a couple days after. I felt over charged for what I received. I don't recommend going here at all. read more

Horrible experience! The employees were very rude, they ignored me when I tried asking a question and just continue with their own conversation as if I wasn't there. Won't return. read more

So I came in for a manicure they asked if I can wait I'm waiting for about 30 mins and another lady comes in for a manicure they tell her 30 min wait so I'm sitting waiting, another 30 mins pass and I'm still waiting she finishes one girls nails and then goes straight to doing someone's toes and I waited another 20 mins and still nothing I was so mad i just wasted so much time if she would've at least sat me down or told me when I would be next I would've waited a little longer. I used to love this place but after that Im never coming back here again read more

Decided to try this place even though the reviews were questionable. Should have listened to my gut feeling! First of all the place is filthy! They take cash only now because the card reader is out of order. Tried to make an appointment and called ahead of time. I asked for Jenny and she says come in now it's not busy. I get there in 5 minutes and she is starting on a new full set! I tell her I'll come back just to give me a time, she says she doesn't make appointments, I tell her why didn't she tell me that to start instead of wasting my time! Place is not worth my time or MONEY! They lost a customer and I will make it a point to spread the word!! read more

ZERO STARS! I've been here a couple of times now. First time, the older guy cut my skin and I was bleeding. The second time was better and that's why I came back. The don't follow the rules and aren't that clean. I am a cosmetologist and I know how it should be, only two people here do a good job. The other workers are so damn slow! I come here as a last resort since it's across the street from my house. I would recommend going anywhere else but here. They don't talk to you, they only talk to themselves in their language all damn day. The young guy and young girl with glasses are EXTREMELY slow. I got the young guy before and it took him forever to do my pedicure, I didn't have time do my finger nails since I had work. I asked to make an appointment the next day and they said 10:30 tomorrow. I came the next day and I had waiting for 48 mins. (I was timing it) so much for an 'appointment'. The girl I wanted AND made the appointment with JENNY (the owner), was then too busy to do me and they wanted the turtle do my nails. All the times I've been here are horrible. I gave them one last try! And the girl didn't just cut me, SHE BUSTED MY SKIN OPEN! From filing! Yes that is possible, and she did it TWICE. It took her an hour to file my nails. She didn't know how to do coffin. She filed them at the wrong degree, again I'm a cosmetologist so I know. And she didn't do the right ratio for the monomer and polymer. Even after all the filing my nails were still thick and bumpy. DON'T EVER COME HERE! They don't follow their prices either. Me and a girl next to each other and got the same thing but they charged me more than her. Shady ass place. State board needs to check them out! Go to the place next door in the other plaza. read more

YOU MUST ASK FOR SANITARY TOOLS every time you get a pedi and mani. You could be exposed to bacteria, fungus, hepatitis You want to make sure that that they properly licensed, having taken the steps to insure proper health and safety and sanitation issues that could arise if they're not following those state requirements. Unsanitary Condition are a violations of Dept of Consumer affairs and pose a health risk to the community. read more

Not the cleanest place. The guy did a sloppy job and gave me a couple of cuts along the way. I guess it was a good thing he burned me with the alcohol maybe it killed any bacteria left behind. Paid $25 for a gel fill which is about average so can't complain there but the quality of the work was not worth it. I'd rather pay a little more if it means they pay more attention to the details. And I'm not even that picky when it comes to my nails. I'll stick to my regular shop. read more

Very inconsistent with their prices. Took my wife and daughter there in the past they have charged 23 for a fill. This time around price increased by 4 dollars. And my daughter was charged 55 for a mani pedi, which seems a bit steep. This was a place my wife was happy with but after this experience it is on to look for another shop. They also are very rude at times. read more

Jenny is the best, I've been coming to her for about 10years now and Tina does my eyebrows bomb. I like coming here thanks girls

The owner did my nails. She was rushing to finish and did it in 15 minutes. I got matte black coffin nails and they ended up charging me $35 dollars which wouldn't be a problem if she had done them properly, the matte top coat peeled off my index finger two hours after getting them done. She didn't push back my cuticles or file the nails gently, she used a drill for everything causing the skin around my nails to bleed a little bit after my nails were finished and the shape of the nails wasn't consistent, they were crooked. The glue she used got all over my fingers causing two of them to stick together which she then proceeded to rip apart and look at me with an annoyed look. She would talk but her accent was hard to understand so I didn't understand most of the things she was telling me. I wouldn't recommend this place either because like other reviews said, they don't have very good ventilation and their tools don't look clean read more

First of all i don't get my nails done! My experience is based on my lady's visit (i always go with her) This place is terrible. They do not greet you. They do not make you feel comfortable. They do not cater to the customer at all. It's almost as if you walked into someone's house and demanded them to service you. Some guy that didn't know what he was doing (i say this because he looked confused and one of the ladies was looking over his shoulder) we did not come to a beauty school. The end product was a disaster crooked nails and very inconsistent. Avoid avoid save your money. read more

Honestly, This place is only good for pedicures. I did my nails with Jenny and her service is horrible. My nails are all uneven!!! I ask for coffin nails, not too coffin and she made them regular. I told her multiple times to make them slimmer and she would hold my hand tighter and said she did. I showed her a picture of how I wanted my nails and she did nothing of what I asked. I'm NOT satisfied with my nails AT ALL, she basically did what she needed to do to leave work. She should of paid my damn nails if she was going to do whatever she wanted. Never again doing my nails here again! Ladies go somewhere else. Now i know why they're never busy.. read more
