kitty halloween nails

I've come here 3 times and have never left unsatisfied, a better word amazed The staff is always so welcoming and good vibes everytime i go in. My nails always eat as you can see and stay strong. I'm a very hands on person and they have never chipped. In the 2nd picture, that's after 4 weeks. After two sets, i'm able to simply get gel polish on due to the growth on my kitty nails. Perks are free drinks, good music, and nail techs that know what they're doing and kind! Nevaeh and another nail tech i forgot her name eat! Price is a little pricey but doesn't stop me bc i love getting designs and everything else about this salon make up for it!

Jae was amazing!! She took her time and did everything exactly how I wanted. She was patient with me when I picked colors and I could tell she was very meticulous which I appreciated. The only negative I have was the price. I got builder gel manicure (with nothing they had to take off) and price was $85.. maybe that's normal I've never had builder gel before but just felt like it was a little on the high end. BUT I will be returning because of how well Jae did in my nails! I'm in LOVE!!

A whole month later and my nails STILL look pretty damn good!! scheduling my next appointment soon

The staff are very sweet unfortunately the pedicure was really bad so I stopped the manicure because I knew it was going to be bad too. I really should not have paid for it but I wanted to get out of there. The pedicure took 2 hours and there was polish on my skin and a bunch of cuticle/dry skin left behind. Very disappointing

This was my first visit here and I can confidently say it was the best experience ever..Veronica is an amazing nail technician so talented and professional. She did exactly what I wanted and even exceeded my expectations. She took the time to make sure every detail was perfect. Highly recommend Veronica if you're looking for perfection with kindness. Love my nails

Pictures should tell the story waiting for them to open to take off these horrible nails filled with glue.

Waiting for doors to open on Tuesday to have these glue filled fakes removed. Way overcharged, confirmed with another blinded customer.

French toast and pancakes not pictured

Wonderful restaurant very clean and service was outstanding. Before leaving the Island we stopped here everything else was too crowded and glad we stopped here . My family and I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere! We shall return again !!

Foot pedicures French tip nail

Her lines could've of been a little more crisp but that's my fault for not paying attention before they went under the heat lamp. But she worked on these feet for damn near 2 hrs and really gave a real good leg and foot massage . Attention to detail was top tier! The pedicure was amazing. There were roses petals in my water and complimentary drinks . 12/10 highly recommend. They stay booked and busy so I recommend you get an appointment they aren't open on Mondays because they don't have enough staff and that's because they hire for quality not quantity.

Abel always gets my hair cut right. He takes his time and has years of experience. Staff is always courteous.

I had a…read morehorrible experience with fake eyelashes at the Little Indian salon where the older lady stated she knew how to put on lashes and clearly she didn't! She first used lash glue then brushed wig glue on my eyelashes to keep them in place! My lashes looked horrible, I now wish I would have taken a picture of them. It was late at night when she finished and I spent the next 3 hours trying to take them off after she refused to do so as the acetone she was using was burning my eyes. I had no luck and the next morning I called the brow bar and Morgan agreed to come in early to remove the lashes as I was in so much pain. Morgan patiently took 2 hours to save as many of my lashes as she could! I am sincerely thankful for Morgan, she knows her stuff and I got to see pictures of her work, she is TALENTED and God sent! When I'm ready for lashes, I will be going to Morgan "The Lash Loca" Thank you for your big heart, your patience and for your dedication to great service!

My husband had his nose waxed. When we left his nose was bleeding a little and my face was very red and hot. I applied Benadryl cream when I got home. 24 hours later on Monday I went back in and showed them my face. They gave me some cream. I wanted to speak to the manager. I was told she would be notified and get call me asap. Tuesday I left a message and no one contacted me. Wednesday I called and left another message. I did finally get a call back on Wed from Denise. She was apologetic and immediately gave us a refund. She advised the girl who did this would receive more training and we thought everything was fine. About 2 hours later I get a call and text for me to contact her. I called and Denise says ," I notice on your file YOU HAVE CANCER! I am trying to get to the bottom of this." It really irritated me. I have been going for about 2 years. She tried to say you can have negative skin reactions from Chemo and Radiation. I interpreted her and advised it's none of her business but with the Cancer I have NEVER had chemo or radiation. Then she was very defensive and said again, I am trying to get the bottom of this but I don't see on your file that we have ever waxed your face, just your brows. I have never had my brows waxed by them. I get my brows threaded. We argued and DENISE HUNG UP ON ME. I sent her a text the next day since she had texted me asking for clarity if they will not wax someone who has Cancer? I told her I wanted closure on the conversation since she hung up on me. She never responded. 1. Extremely unprofessional. 2. Unable to keep staff 3. Unable to train staff properly This is not my problem. The waxologist did not wax my face properly. Kept pulling up and then putting same strip down and pulling up again. She waxed my husband's nostrils 3 times. I wish I could give them Zero stars.

Recently, I decided to try some new products on my own and completely destroyed my skin barrier.

After two months of using the recommended products and two visits post-bad skin barrier, my skin is looking amazing again! It's all thanks to Desiree. If you're in the area and looking for an esthetician, I highly recommend booking an appointment with her! Thank you, Desiree, for the care you put into your work. :)

I truly do believe she is a miracle worker because my skin has drastically improved with her advice and it has only been a few weeks.
