    Update: second time here and still loving it My first time here and I love my nails. A co-worker recommended and I highly recommend as well. Great conversation and my nails look amazing. Best I have ever had and will be coming

    Gel pedi, my toenails are naturally very short but they had no issues accommodating. (Phillip)

    Great quality, fast and affordable. Made an appointment for my wedding party (4 of us, 3 were mani/pedis) and they had us in and out in about 2 hours! I couldn't believe it! Phillip is my favorite, have had him several times before and the pedicures from him always last 6 weeks or longer. Will never go anywhere else!

    Love it!

    Always quality work! I get so many compliments on my nails. Clean and great place to go a bd treat yourself.

    BEST PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN! Kathy is hilarious and so talented. Extremely reasonable prices. Definitely recommend!

    For Halloween she did pennywise nails for me and she did amazing like always!

    My sister and I have been coming here since we were 12 and Kathy has always done amazing work for us. She can be so sassy but I love it she's hilarious. She is always making jokes and smiling!

    Different lighting of same cats eye gel manicure.

    I just tried this salon for the first time today. What a pleasant experience! Kathy was delightful and not only answered all my questions but made good suggestions for me. Quality professional treatment and a lovely end result. Very pretty little space that smells of incense and Buddha vibes plus bling light fixtures. So many colors and accent options as well. Totally going back! I advise you to call ahead for an appointment as she only hires experienced and talented nail technicians.

    My horrible embarrassing nails

    My experience here was nothing more then embarrassing and horrible my nails looked a complete mess and when I told them several times I was unhappy they would not soak my nails off abs the lady with the braces act called the cops on me I never had a experience like this and I will never step foot back in that door I do not recommend this place the people are beyond rude

They were able to take appointments for quite a way out, as well as booking appointments for soonish; I booked a pedicure with Tim right before my trip abroad, giving myself maximum time to grow out the ingrowns the last place gave me. Big place, with lots of stations and lots of professionals. Clean, light and airy. The massage chair pedicure stations faced a large flatscreen tv showing the Olympic Games. Nice! Tim didn't give me much time to soak, but was very careful not to cut my nails too short, and not to file them too much in the corners. My podiatrist would approve. Didn't take off enough callus on the ends of my pinkie toes, but that's a hard area to reach. Massage of the feet and calves with lotion was relatively brief, but used a nice lotion that didn't reek of artificial scent, like the last place. Did a beautiful job painting my nails. Fast, efficient, professional, and no pain. I was happy. Afterward, relaxed by the good experience, I asked about a manicure, and ended up seeing Tim's colleague Linh, who was awesome. She told me about gel builder, to armor my weak and brittle nails without damaging them, and I signed up. We left my short nails the color the gel builder comes in -- a nice, natural pink. Maybe now I'll actually be able to grow them out past my fingertips, without them snagging and tearing! I love how strong and smooth they are now, which is helpful in making jewelry! I booked a follow up for a month from now. I look forward to trying out more of their services!

    Okay so immediately coming in and being sat down for our 11am appointment. I asked them if they…read morecould do the design I wanted and I got told yes. It was a pink and white flower French tips on my toes. They never did the pink and they didn't know how to do the flower..another employee came and redid them for me and it still wasn't like the picture, but they still look nice. Next, I had my nails done and it was rushed. A few nails are crooked and I mentioned that before acrylic was applied and I was told it would be fixed. I then asked if they could do the design and was told yes but when it came down to my nails I was told no because they didn't have time. There's air bubbles and thick layers of "goop/glue" on my nails so they don't look very clean. If they weren't so in a rush then I don't doubt my nails would look very polished. They're still cute, that's just my only complains. They were very kind and sweet to me but my mother didn't receive the same service. Her nails were also rushed and the lady who did them cut her skin like around her cuticles and under her nails and then the gel nail polish she did was goopy and just put on. Some sides were flatter than others and some nails had see through spots of her real nail bed because the gel wasn't distributed properly. My mother had kindly said something and the lady kept telling her to "wash her hands" and that's what she did. At the end of the service my moms finger was bleeding from being cut and she asked the guy who did my nails If she could have a refund and he told her he'll have to ask the lady who did her nails. He asked the lady and she came up to my mom and started SCREAMING at her for asking for it. She ended up getting her refund but terrible customer service. I also don't know why they take appointments if you're not going to be priority. They would often time stop doing my nails to go help a customer in the MIDDLE of MY appointment that we booked. Would I recommend service? No. While SOME are nice only ONE guy is skilled and that's the one who did my nails.

It took close to an hour and 45mins for a service that usually takes 45-50mins max. The person servicing my mom was extremely slow to do her nails because she didn't know what she was doing and this was even confirmed by the owner. Because it took so long, no massage or lotion was included like other customers. The owner and another staff member coming to work in pajamas with extra long acrylic eagle talons for nails was definitely a red flag & I should of seen this coming. The owner was forcing my mom to basically pay $100 for a very sloppy, lumpy & time-consuming manicure. After some time of arguing, she decided to lower it to $75 (still an overcharge) because of miscommunication, and didn't even apologize. The owner was extremely reluctant to see the problem from another person's point of view & stood firm on her pricing with a sense of entitlement. Apparently, she's very proud of the mediocre work that comes out of her shop & demands full payment, even if that means ripping off customers. And never once were we expecting a free or discounted service. We just wanted to pay what was fair for the low-quality that was given. I found them to be very unprofessional, unreasonable, hostile and overall a huge lack of customer service skills. Continuously talking over people in a louder voice doesn't make your claim any stronger or correct. Instead of turning a negative to positive experience to create a repeat customer, the owner opted to give major attitude to a senior customer with broken English, knowing there was a lack of communication on your businesses behalf and that was disappointing. Very ghetto, to say the least. If you're going to charge premium pricing, a premium service needs to follow. No one in their right mind can look at these sad nails & genuinely feel they got their money's worth.

    Based on the ample positive reviews on Google and Yelp, I decided to walk-in on a rainy Saturday. I…read moreexpressed it was my first visit and asked if they took walk-ins. I was told there would be a 15-min wait, which was fine by me, and he told me to have a seat. He didn't ask which service I would like, but he approached me after checking a few other people in to clarify. The waiting area is comfortable and there's a couple of fish tanks if you don't feel like staring at your phone. While I waited, I used their restroom which was clean. Always a good sign. They also have a water dispenser in the waiting area if you'd like to hydrate before or after your massage (they'll ask and fetch you water post-massage.) I opted for their standard massage (foot and body) for $40 (+tip.) I was shown into a room with two massage tables after my 15 minute wait and a gentleman came in with a lukewarm tub of water to soak my feet. I took off my shoes and socks and placed them aside, and put my pocketbook in a plastic basket that they provide so I didn't need to leave my things on the floor. This is standard at a lot of places. ATTIRE: I've been to these sorts of places while wearing jeans and a T-shirt, or shorts and a sports bra, it really doesn't matter. They will work around your clothes. For the most part, there is a towel between their hands and your clothing with some exceptions. They are massaging your back and butt with the towel. If your legs are bare, they will use their hands. They also will reach down the back of your shirt with some lotion to massage your neck. NOT at this place, but other places, I have had them lift the back of my shirt, unhook my bra, and massage my back. Or, push the top of my pants down a bit to get to my lower back, if they are athletic wear. And no, they don't ask permission, but it has all felt fairly routine and professional to me. There was one or two spots. I was extra sensitive and grunted, he was very polite and paused and asked "softer?" and when I said yes, he said, "ok, sorry" with a smile. In short, don't be afraid to ask them to be less rough if you're not enjoying it. They just want you to enjoy it and come back! I'll also mention that every masseuse is different. I've returned to places only to have a different experience with a different individual. In short, I will be back! They were very polite, the place was clean, I liked the vibe, their estimated wait time was accurate, the massage was very good, and I like the price. As for tipping, 20% ($8) can feel a little low when someone is spending an hour rubbing your body. I tipped $15 atop the $40 flat rate, but that is up to you.

However, this time, the lady nicked both of my heels while providing a pedicure. It stung but didn't bleed. She applied something from a nail polish bottle. It's clear but I have no idea what it was. Fortunately, (I think) I wasn't allergic to it. They also had a sneaky price increase. Last year, a percentage discount was given for paying in cash. This year, the cash price is unchanged but there's a 2.5% upcharge for paying with credit. They're a small business so they do have to pay for credit card usage. But, now, the customer doesn't receive the discount for cash but avoids the penalty as the cost is passed to the customer. I'll probably go back but it'll be some time. My heels really sting and I wasn't offered any compensation or discounts. --------------- Removed a star. I had a * gel * manicure and a normal pedicure on Sunday. It's -- Monday -- and colors are already flaking off the nails. ------------- It's barely been two days!
