Ok, I was here to see Quang for my nails, yes a manicure dear readers. As someone who has lived here in Rochester for two years I've only gone to two other places one place it was one time & I never went back & the other place I've been going to for the two years I've been here. I'm very particular about my nails. But...I think things have changed. Here is the deal you cannot just walk in, it's like a secret society in a sense. Someone needs to tell you about him they give you his card or information you can call or text him for an appointment. His time like your time is valuable so be prompt it's good for you and good for him. Also it is CASH ONLY... now when you go to this location to give you an idea where he is it's the strip mall area that has Thai Mii Up. Plenty of parking so no qualms. When you get into the salon, it's a big airy place, they have places to sit and etc. I was greeted by the staff and told them I was here to see Quang. He has his own space, he does manicures and pedicures. You can do gel manicures, a regular one, get acrylics and etc. He uses Gelish for the gel manicures along with another companies polishes. He's tidy and precise with his work. His space is tidy as well. It's obvious he enjoys what he does and has loyalty from his clients. (Cause I had to wait for an appointment no joke!) So, here's the deal.. I have my own natural nails, with that; with nails being done, abuse of them and medication give you weak nails. My issue also I have acrylic over one nail due to an accident awhile back and the nail either grows back on its own or when it splits it splits. Now he was honest with me no hard core push or anything but in his professional opinion it was time to do something for a bit to give my nails some strength (yes I take vitamins and etc) so I have a acrylic on my thumbnail I now have them on all my nails. Listen I've never done it before.. to be completely honest; from what I know from other people it is not a inexpensive undertaking. Well... it was very reasonable and anyone who gets gel manicure's you know how much that is between $25-40 on natural nails.. now I got the acrylics and a gel manicure, if I got a regular old school manicure w: acrylics it would have been less. So for this visit it was $20 more than I would pay for my just gel manicure, in this case I got everything done and when I come in next time it's priced accordingly. Now dear reader I can't give you a "price list" since it would depend on what you get but to give you an example price wise between $25-50+ depending on what you are doing. He is seriously precise and does something different when he takes off the gel manicure that I think is easier on your nails. Now he does your nails beautifully, gives you cuticle oil, rubs it in.. checks over it all. Tells you gently not to pick at your nails, use hand cream & etc. Than when your done you can make another appointment while you are there than you go on with your day. While he was finishing his next client was waiting. So, in closing I made another appointment, I now have new nails!! So to be honest go to him if you have acrylic or natural nails. He has a relaxed demeanor and he's an absolute master in his field. He's worth it! Bravo. Go! read more

TL;DR in advance: Go here. I cannot recommend it enough (especially my girls Melissa and Kelly!). They genuinely care and will have you leaving feeling and looking like a superstar! If you go to salons often- check them out and be converted. If you've never been to a salon- see above. 15/10! The long story: To begin, I'm not very familiar with glitz and glam. So trying to book a salon appointment literally felt like a horse and buggy driver trying to ring up an auto shop. A friend recommended this salon to me, and after some trepidation, I called. I was fortunate enough to get in contact with Melissa, and within minutes, I was beyond confident I was in not just 'good hands', but the BEST hands. Melissa was friendly, open, willing to walk me through both the haircut, highlights, and the mani-pedi I was looking into. Can we talk about active listening and engagement? Melissa is the definition of it! She set me up with EXACTLY what I needed and helped me every step of the way. There are not many people able or willing to do that these days. Fast forward to the appointment. Driving up to the salon, well, I've driven past it a million and two times and never knew it was there. It's like a hidden gem! Walking into the salon, it was large, beautiful, warm, and welcoming! The reception area is full of plush chairs, coffee and treats. I didn't get to stay there long though as I was instantly greeted and directed to Kelly. I don't know how one place has managed to snag so many amazing people, but once again, I was completely at ease. We went over what I wanted, and then she flew into action. Kelly put so much energy and passion into my cut and highlights, and it shows. I don't think my hair has ever looked this good!! As a cherry on top, I had a blast chatting with her the whole time! Directly after, I was reunited with Melissa for a gel mani-pedi. My feet were a mess, my fingers hadn't been painted in years... and somehow she managed to make me feel like a hand model. I could go on and on, but this is a review, not a novel. I went there nervous in preparation for a special occasion and left feeling like a million bucks. I couldn't recommend them more highly! read more

I used Kelly and Karen as my hair and make up artists for a July 2018 wedding and was so thrilled with the results. Kelly did two trials for me after I changed my mind regarding updo versus down, and was super patient and helpful. During the time leading up to a wedding, you want someone like her who is down-to-earth, calming, and thoughtful about what she does. You will definitely feel well taken care of! On the day of the wedding, both Kelly and Karen were on time and fully prepared with everything we needed. The bridal party looked gorgeous, and Karen did a great job of providing natural looking make up for everyone! Kelly's hair styling looked amazing on each of my friends, and mine turned out just as we had planned and as I had hoped. It was a great experience and I highly recommend them for events!​ read more
