    I've been hitting this place during covid lockdown opened. It's a nice spot to get a manicure and pedicure without any drama. Yes, I said the drama word. Here, there are two ladies working and gentle music playing while they do their thing. It's a no fuss or games kind of place. Prior to covid, they used to offer drinks now they just do the job at hand, taking care of the nails. I'm a minimal type guy. Just trim, clean and buff. I was told some guys like nail polish and once I told them no thank you they never asked again. Like I said, no drama. I keep a running reservation for every three weeks. I would suggest making a reservation since there are only a couple of workers. You can't go wrong here.

    Mai is amazing! She is a true nail artist. I've never had one nail break since she started doing my nails 6 months ago and she is just a lovely person. The other staff members are awesome too. I've had a few pedicures and they do a great job. Great massage and relaxing atmosphere.

    Mai is fantastic! I go to her every time and my nails always turn out stunning. Totally recommend this place !

    One week after my gel appointment and they still look brand new.

    Mai is fantastic! I recently switched salons and am quite particular and everything has been perfect! She does my gel nails and has started doing acrylics for my daughter. Every time they're perfect and my gel manicure lasts 4 weeks with no chipping. I only come every 4 weeks because they grow out enough that they look silly. For my teen she has nailed the shape and the requested nail art every time. Would highly recommend!

    "MY NAILS ARE BUSSIN BUSSIN. You won't forget about that." But seriously, I could not love this place anymore. The owner is amazing and does such a thorough job. Close attention to detail and I am thrilled every time I leave this place. I won't go anywhere else at this point. My most recent set is by far my favorite design yet. Make sure to book an appointment because it's a small shop and usually they only have a 2-3 people working.

    Perfect milk bath nails!

    I asked for some milky nails and boy did they deliver! Looks just like the photo request. I love it! Can't recommend them enough. My pedicure was wonderful too.

    Took an hour and forty five minutes but they are soo good. She was clean, precise and must have a lot of experience because I got exactly what I asked for. They are beautiful!

    Absolutely stunned by how beautiful the color is on this gel manicure! I had an old gel manicure and removal + new mani took less than an hour in total. I called that morning for a 3pm appt, Mani started at 3:15 and was wrapped up before 4 pm.

    Omg Mai is the best and on point every time so detailed and a perfectionist I am so glad my daughter in law referred me to her Mai is a must try u will not be disappointed

    Short white square acrylics.

    I was referred by my mothers nurse, and even though it was 25 minutes away....it was WORTH it. The absolute care put into my acrylics, they're not chunky or thick. They're thin, evened out and perfect with no rough edges. So grateful. I will be coming back for a pedicure soon. $52 total, and that was with the $2 file kit since I forgot mine.

    Beautiful Pink Chrome nails by Mai! I have been getting my nails done here for 3 years, and Mai has quite the talent with artificial nails.

    I have been getting perfect manicures here and they last. I get gel. It's great to have a good nail salon close to home.

    Does anybody know how much they charge for full set acrylics? Also, are they good quality?

    I came here for a pedicure. It's been so long since I've gotten one and I was really excited!…read more I had an appointment on a Sunday afternoon and when I came they had me choose my color and take a seat. They were fairly busy at the time. They got to me really quick and I got a deluxe pedi. It was SO nice and relaxing. The aesthetician was very nice. My toes look great too! I would absolutely visit again (and will be soon!)

    I walked in and i was immediately greeted and attended to. The woman did a fine job on my pedicure…read more(other places include scrub this one does not for standard). When it was time for my manicure I was rushed over to the manicure station having to walk barefoot on the dirty floor. The manicure was fine (no soaking of nails). She asked for money before finishing up and then an issue arose with the money I gave them and it ended up being a disaster. I spent 45 minutes going over how much I paid verses what they thought I owed- regardless it was a waste of time, I felt like a thief, the woman kept insisting I never gave her money I thought I did- regardless no one could be proven right or wrong - but what I didn't care for was her disregard for letting my nails dry properly before hounding me for money she thought she was owed- it was really rude even when I told her when I'm done drying I'd work it all out. She was more concerned about her money than her service. I won't be going back here again based on customer service issues- sad because I was willing to give a new place a shot. Plus when I got home my foot started itching and now I seem to have a rash going on.

    I don't know about you all, but I am getting SO sick of by paying to be treated poorly!…read more Husband and I were visiting Portland, so I couldn't get my regular mani pedi back home. Made an appointment for 2 and we weren't seen until after 240 pushing back our dinner plans with our family. Strike one. They barely acknowledged that they were late. Strike two. Normally I wear my earbuds because I hate overhearing conversations, but I was with my husband. I don't care if you're speaking another language in front of me. I do, however, object to being ridiculed right in front of my face. And then paying for it. I will go on the record saying I am not a gargoyle nor do I need a sandblaster to get a proper pedicure. A cheese grater does just fine. Sadly, it should go without saying, that even if I were the mysterious Sasquatch from these parts out for her first mani-pedi in *ever*, these women had no business making fun of anyone. I believe we should uplift each other so I'm not going to mention what they looked like. But because I can, I will say they have a lot of chutzpah saying anything about anyone. I've never been a big fan of businesses pointing out their clients' flaws, or just as annoying, asking about their routine and no matter what they say, immediately saying, "oh no, that's all wrong, here buy this " That said, they're My cuticles. I religiously get my nails done so my hands don't look like bricklayer's. I know they're dry, but to have one say "cuticles" (their language) then one say to me, "you know you have thick cuticles!" And in a sneery way. Had I been another sort of person (and my husband wasn't there) there might have been words, or had I been terribly sensitive, I might've left and humiliated. Completely unprofessional. I could go on and say more about the entire pathetic experience, but this is the worst part of it. And of course, I didn't like my nails (neither did my husband) but forgot to take a pictures.

    I believe they have changed ownership. There has been a remodel and change of staff. Like most…read moreplaces, the prices have gone up too. I took my daughter to get a pedicure. I called ahead for the appointment. When I arrived the woman barely understood me. They need one person who fully understands English. She assumed it was for 2 people when I kept saying one person. Then I payed by card and she said you pay tip? Even before the service. This turned me off. Then she asked my daughter if she knew me? She said ; yes, that's my Mom. So I guess I will be looking around for a new nail spa. I will say the finished pedicure was nice and my daughter tipped them. Thus a 4 star review.
