I will always be ten toes down for kk nails Kim does the…read morebest gel builder nails. My natural nails last so long. At first I didn't love the gap that made it look like my nails had grown out a little. BUT, it has a purpose and my nails last me over 6 weeks. I usually have to get them done because how much they grew out, never had any chipping or lifting. Lin knows how to shape my toenails just how I love them. If you prefer a gentle massage she's your gal. Cash only Parking is limited but next building over has parking. Not the Chinese food place. I'm simple so $90 will get my gel pedi and gel builder nails. You can't beat the price especially for the quality. Make an appointment because they stay booked and busy.

My friends and I come here a lot to get our nails done. Unfortunately this last experience here was…read morenot a good one. While the price is affordable, I will not come back due to sanitary issues & incorrect methods they use. We made appts for 12 pm and my nails were not started until 12:45 pm. My nail tech (Michelle) was very nice and she does nails well, however, she used the nail grinder tool to clean my cuticles. My cuticles HURT for hours after my nails were done and weeks after the appt, I still have cut up cuticles and scabbing from the blood (pictures attached). I wish I had known in the moment that this method is not okay; it should have been a cuticle cutter. Once I got to my car and quickly googled that I found: Grinders are made for shaping hard artificial or natural nail surfaces, not living skin. Using a high-speed rotating bit on the delicate cuticle and the nail bed can easily cause painful skin tears, deep friction burns, and severe infections. These aren't correct practices used by this salon; they are taking the easy route to get it done quickly. Would not recommend. I would give them 1 star but Yelp removes those reviews easily so that's why I'm putting 2-stars.

The lady cut my toe nails so short that it was hurting when she filed it. I asked 3 times if she…read morecould do acrylic on my big toe to make it square since the side of it broke so it could match the other foot and she didn't do it. These aren't even square and she kept cutting the side of my toe nails and filing them back when they were too short and hurt. I've been coming. Here for a long time this is probably the worst shaping I've ever gotten here. I could have done my own shaping better than that at home. Just ridiculous *** it was around 5-7 weeks since my last pedicure so my toes were not "really short" besides the big toe that broke. I added another picture to show that she was filing into my toe nails after cutting them super short as short as she could get them and made half of them round and tiny. She also cut the sides of the nails which you aren't supposed to do due to infection and hang nails. I asked her not to do this. there was no reason for her to cut the sides of my nails on one foot and not the other leaving with me with uneven toes. I appreciate the response but I feel that there should be an attempt to fix the situation instead of making excuses or insinuating that I'm making this up.

A good time! Closing…read moreis at 7, but I called ahead and they let me book a mani/pedi for two people at 6:15. I ended up having Tiffany and Kelly. They were both super nice and did a great job on my nails! Even though it was near closing, they took their time and did great work. The salon itself it quite spacious and nice. There was a ton of space. They even offered me water. I appreciate the little touches from them giving me pillows to them helping me put my shoes on. Overall, I had a good experience and I'd come back!

Finally had them stay on for two weeks only to come in For a fill and discover I've developed greenies due to lifting and water being trapped under my nails. I decided to just take my nails off and do a gel polish only for her to say I need to leave them off for two months to allow my nails to grow out full due to "nail damage" mind you, I had my nails off from June to august and the initial set I had put on was right after my break! Anyways. Paid $50 for this manicure and will be the last $ I spend here.

This is my go-to nail spot. I always get really great quality nails for a reasonable price. I…read morecouldn't recommend them enough! Lucky did a great job on my nails, meticulously cleaning up the cuticles and shaping the builder shape. They also somehow keep the salon incredibly clean and free from odors. All of the tools are very hygienic, coming from the sterilized wrapping. And the nail stations are all very clean. Anyways, I had to leave another review because I'm just so impressed by this nail spa.

10/18/26 I came here because it was close by and unfortunately, the experience was not good…read more When I first walked in, I specifically asked for a builder gel removal and a gel manicure. They nodded and seemed to understand, but I was only able to get the removal because I was told they didn't have time to do the gel manicure. In hindsight, I'm actually glad they didn't, because the removal itself was concerning. The first person working on my nails was about to let me leave with noticeable clumps of builder gel still left on my nails. The photos attached are after she had "fixed" it. I had to point it out and ask her to "fix it" There was also no soak-off process whatsoever. After she said she was finished, I reminded them that I had also asked for a gel manicure, only to be told that they didn't have time. I then asked if they could at least buff and smooth out the remaining product. Just SOMETHING to make my nails look better and smoother but, they seemed frustrated because she had a pedicure waiting. I believe the owner or someone in charge eventually took over. Everyone spoke Chinese and only few words was spoken to me. She clearly saw that the nails needed additional filing and went over them again herself but it was still terrible. Another thing that made me uncomfortable was seeing an already opened pouch of tools being used right in front of me. The station I was seating in clearly was not cleaned up before they seated me. There was an open blue pouch of tools and powder every where. I'm sharing pictures so people can see the condition of my nails afterward. Unfortunately, I would not recommend coming here. There are plenty of other nail salons within 5-10 minutes please go there instead.
