    Acrylic manicure
    Darianne M.

    The owners response to my original post is EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL "we knew you were going to be trouble" lmfao what kind of response is that? People are paying for a service and want what they ask for. It was indeed my first time to the salon and the people were rude and snarky. I did go back to have them redone and was given a lot of attitude about it. Ridiculous. Own that it was a horrible job done and take some responsibility for bad service.

    Wow this place is super busy! Make sure you make an appointment else you'll be waiting a long time. Located right off the main road in a tiny shopping center with lots of parking. Everyone is super friendly, massage chairs are all new or appear to be new. Would def. Come back

    Regular pedicure

    Very nice family run business. They were accommodating to squeezing me in same day for a pedicure. Packed salon and everyone was taken care of. I particularly love how the moms working were able to have their little ones nearby. The kids were cute and sweet trying to help. My regular pedicure was just what I needed - a nice clean up.

    Almost every nail is crooked. The lady wasn't paying attention at all, was watching a show the whole time while doing my nails. I look back and saw another girl watching a show on her phone too. When I left I realized how crooked they were. I called and they told me "well you should have looked at them before you left". I went back and the owner was very rude and told me that's how my nails are, which they have never been like that and that they were suppose to charge me more but they didn't ..... not my fault and still doesn't mean anything about my crooked nails.. very rude and unprofessional.

    The only saving grace was that my manicure + design was only $15. Not only did I have to wait 35 minutes (which is fine - it was busy) but when I did finally get in the chair, the man was more concerned with texting rather than finishing my manicure. I THEN made the horrible decision to ask for a design. It is supposed to be eyelashes. If he wasn't able to do the design, then he should have said no. AND THEN I made the awful mistake of smudging my nails. The fix was worse than the manicure itself. Aside from that, the fans to dry don't work. After my aunt and mother said that it didn't work, the woman came over and stepped on my aunt's foot and smudged her nail and then was annoyed that it had to be fixed. Nice place, but the people who work there are NOT worth paying for someone to paint my nails. I would have done it myself and it would have looked better. Lesson learned. ****edit: please see below for my case in point. The response and tone from the owner say it all. Talk about "professionalism"!!

    gel nail extensions with ghost design
    Emily S.

    I came here looking for drawn nail designs and I wasn't disappointed! The shape and design came out amazing and I'm so happy with the experience here. I was in and out in under and hour, and was seated immediately with an appointment. The salon was really nice as well, super nice pedicure stations that I need to come back and try soon. I've tried 3 other nail salons in the area and I wasn't pleased with the shape, they were bulky so they didn't grow out comfortably and they were already lifting within a week. My advice: go for the gel instead of acrylic and give this place a try instead. All their tools are sterilized and I saw those practices taking place. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and the price was extremely reasonable. (Nail extensions don't cost $20 when they're gel and done well, so please don't expect that anymore...) Can't ask for anything more, I'll definitely be back!

    Maria did EXACTLY what I wanted and she was so fast! I got there at 3pm for a fill, fix, and…read morepedicure- I was out by 4:15! Not only was she quick but she pays attention to detail. I'm only knocking a star off the review because the other staff (Not Maria, she was the only one to smile and greet me) was so rude. I walked in and was stared at by staff and not greeted once! Mind you I called and asked if I could come in at that time and they happily said "of course see you then." When I walked in Not one person said hello, not one person asked me what I wanted, and there was at least 5 workers by the door on their phones looking at me side ways. After I sat down lady came after me was walking to her pedicure chair when a work said "ma'am sit down" with attitude. It was just an off feeling in there, however Maria made it all better! She was so sweet and welcoming! Will be back for her forsure

    I made an appointment online for a one hour service for a pedicure. I haven't gotten one in a few…read moremonths so I knew I needed the extra time, especially as I've been running a lot lately and need extra attention on my heels. When I walked in, the salon was packed and decorated very nicely. I was immediately greeted at the door and was asked what I needed, I told the man up front I made an appointment for a pedicure and he sat me down right away. I waited in the chair about 10 minutes before my technician came to start working, that wasn't a problem. However, once she started, I could tell she wasn't really trying. Everything felt very rushed and like not much thought was put into it. The foot scrub lasted a total of 10 seconds, and I left with my feet in the same condition I came in with. My technician was talking to another technician who sat in the chair next to me the whole time, and my tech was pointing to my heels and talking about me to her. I felt very uncomfortable. After about 25 minutes she was already painting my toes. I asked for white, (i think the easiest request) and walked out with this terrible streaky light gray color, that makes my nails look dingy. I'm very upset because the salon had good vibes, but these two technicians ruined it completely for me. I'm also confused by the price, because I got the basic pedicure (given the service I received, not requested) which the sign next to the chair says $35, +$2 for gel, but was charged $45.
