    Kimberly E.

    I found this Nail Salon here on Yelp when searching for affordable places to get my nails done. Rather than reading reviews, I just came here as a Walk-In. The ladies greeted me instantly with smiles, barely waited 5 minutes and met Kathy. She is very sweet. I had found a specific design I wanted to try and she was more than happy to do it for me. She was very particular and attentive doing my acrylics before doing the design. Her attention to detail is truly amazing. The price was very affordable and she got her well deserved tip as well I will be back soon for a fill and new design to try out. Thank you Kathy and can't wait to come back

    Different sizes, fat

    The worst nails i've ever gotten. All of my nails are different lengths. They leave them fat and use really cheap nail polish. Trying to charge 50 dollars for a set to get them the shape I want. Save your money!! Overall terrible job.

    Vy never disappoints.. Always leave satisfied with my gorgeous nails

    Vy never disappoints, she's always precise to the T and makes sure she takes her time. And everyone else is always so sweet when I go in to get my nails done. Always laughs and smiles every time I'm here.. they really make you feel at home. Ask for Vy

    Pink acrylic nails
    Irene V.

    I got pink acrylic nails and a pedicure. The lady that did the acrylics was very quiet but did a pretty good job. It just seemed like she was in a hurry & left right after so I didn't even get to tip her. The lady that did my pedicure was really sweet & I would definitely come back to her again. Just not the other lady, I would go somewhere else to get my acrylics done. I just wish their customer service was a little better. Another thing, they have a sign outside that says "Full set for $14.99 if you're a new customer or a student" I showed her my student ID & she says it was $18? I mean its still not expensive but I just don't like being told a price when at the end it's not even true.

    Haven't had my nails done in years, and I took my chances here because it was a good price. Kathy is the best! She did such a great job.

    I waited until I'd visited this salon a few times before writing a review because I wanted to give…read moreit a fair chance. The last issue happened last week, but I waited until today to write about it. I wanted to sit with my emotions and see if it still bothered me. It does. The salon is nice, and I can see they've tried to renovate it, but I wouldn't call it 100% accommodating. The bathroom and baseboards still look old, and the chairs don't have a massage feature. I notice details that other people might not, but none of that was a reason for me to stop coming. I told them from the beginning that I'm picky. I'm polite, but I know what I want and always tell nail salons upfront. I've been getting my nails done since I was 15, and I'm 45 now. My nails are thin and brittle, and psoriasis affects how they look. Sometimes they can look like they might have fungus, but that's what psoriasis does to my nails. I need a technician who understands that. My first appointment went well. I really liked my pedicure and the woman who did it. She's a sweetheart. The nail technician is nice and does a good job, though she has a strong personality that can come across as a little rude. I have a strong personality too, so I gave it a chance. Both technicians are fast, which I love because I travel a lot for work and don't want to spend hours in a nail salon. A full set and pedicure took about an hour and 15 minutes. Both looked cute, and I got what I wanted. About a month later, I called and asked for a fill. When I arrived, the nail technician started removing my nails. She then told me that next time we should do a fill because my nails are so brittle. I told her I had asked for a fill when I called, and that she'd said she would decide whether to remove them once she saw them. She told me that regardless of what I say on the phone, I should discuss what we agreed on directly with her when I come in. I said okay, but I also wondered why my request hadn't been communicated to her. That's part of having a receptionist. I was irritated, but my second full set and pedicure looked good, so I decided to come back. At my next visit, she removed the polish, saw that the nails underneath didn't look good, and decided to take the set off. I also switched from an oval shape to a shorter, simpler coffin shape. The next day, the color started chipping. My sister said that can happen with a solid color using gelx, but I was about to leave the country for work and wanted my nails to look professional. I called the salon, explained the chipping, and asked to come in to fix it. I offered to pay. The person on the phone insisted there would be no charge and booked me. I even asked if she was sure, and she said yes. I want to emphasize that I offered to pay because I value people's work. When I came in, they saw me fairly quickly. Nobody mentioned a charge before or during the appointment. At the end, the nail technician told me it would be $35. I paid and gave her a $7 tip. I wasn't going to change my character over it, but I was irritated. I don't know whether the receptionist failed to tell the technician what she'd promised. My issue isn't paying, I offered to do that from the beginning. My issue is being told repeatedly that I wouldn't be charged, then being charged without an explanation or apology. My nails had been done less than 9 days earlier, and she changed the color and reshaped them. Even if they wanted to charge me, they could have told me beforehand or acknowledged the miscommunication. Nobody did. I've run businesses for years, and transparency matters to me. If a client explains what they need to the receptionist, that information should reach the technician. This was the second time something I'd discussed on the phone didn't seem to be communicated. In my experience, the front desk came across as disengaged, and the communication was mediocre. I'm not naming anyone because I don't want to put anyone on blast. I hope the salon takes this as a lesson. The nails looked nice, the woman who does my pedicures is lovely, and the nail technician is quick and does good work. My biggest issue is the salon's internal communication, which shouldn't be the client's responsibility. Thank you for the services, but I won't be back.
