    I love this nail salon! I am so glad I found it! The service and people working in the salon are always top tier and very hospitable. The quality of their nail jobs always looks so fresh and professional. My nails the first time I got them done here lasted OVER three weeks!

    I had a pedicure. Very through! Staff friendly, pleasant, helpful, sweet. Beautiful location. Would definitely recommend!

    Amazing Aden serving us drinks was top notch and he helped pick out my nail color. I will for sure be back for the bubbles!!!!!

    Nails less than 48 hours later. Has for a wedding where I was a bridesmaid, aka everyone saw these in photos.

    The employees could not have been nicer. However, I spent a long time explaining I did not want gel polish, as I didn't have time to sit for it and especially don't have time to get it removed later. My nails were chipped within hours from seemingly nothing. I now realize that it was gel, as I cannot get it off. This is how my nails looked for a wedding only 48 hours after coming in. It looked terrible, and because it was gel, I could not remove it and fix it myself. Again, could not have been nicer, but this was a total waste of money and time.

    Massage chairs, natural ingredients for the spa pedicure and a clean and comfortable vibe.

    What a gem. I went in for a pedicure (only) and was pleasantly surprised at how nice the shop was, and how pleasant the people were. Alayna, the owner, and her son, Aden, could not be more welcoming. Alayna gave me my pedicure and was gentle, exacting and very professional. No joke - my polish lasted for over a month! These people have earned my business and I will return whenever I'm in town.

    Elena is the owner and amazing creative tech. She has all the things for fancy nails. They don't do acrylics so the salon doesn't smell like chemicals . They offer you a beverage included in your service from tea,coffee,champagne,wine,margaritas and leechee martinis. Very polite staff and they take walk-ins as well as appointments

    My mom and I traveled an hour to get our nails done here because we wanted to try something new and we would do it AGAIN! Aiden was the best host and made us feel very comfortable and welcomed with the complimentary drinks. Elenor and the rest of the staff did an amazing job on our manicures & pedicures. My nails and toes have never looked better! They were extremely gentle with our pedicures as I am very sensitive and I only trust them now! I HIGHLY recommend coming here if you want a luxury experience for a great price. Thank you to all the staff who did an amazing jo

    I have had so many pedicures all over newport and this was BY FAR the absolute best! The spa is immaculate and everyone is so warm and friendly! They offer you drinks, use your name, make you feel at home. It's so clean and the design is so tasteful. Tweedy did an AMAZING job on my toes and gave me the best massage ever. Will be back as often as I can!

    Look at these darling toe spacers

    My daughter and I had a last minute appointment. Aiden accommodated us immediately. We each had a pedicure and were treated to wine and organic fruit scrubs. The staff is amazing and if I lived here I'd come monthly!!! Thank you so much Aiden and staff. We loved our pedicures and wine!

I was late to my appointment, which I called prior to coming in to make sure it was still okay for me to come. They assured me that it was okay and that they are ready for me. When I came in, I immediately knew the energy was off. Since I sat down, they were saying things like "oh yeah, she was late so she can wait for us". One of the other nail techs even say "oh feel free to charge her whatever you want" to what my nail tech said "yeah I'm gonna charge her $7 extra". They didn't know I was fluent in Vietnamese. I didn't say anything because I wanted to continue to hear what they had to say about me. They also asked me where I was from and if I lived in the area. I am assuming that they're asking this to gauge what my ethnicity is. Also, they kept bringing up the fact that I was late. If me being late was such an issue, why say that it was okay for me to come and that they are ready for me? At the end of the conversation, I asked what the charges for and they said the $7 was for callous remover. I just took it as that and didn't call them out on it. Right before I left, I told them in Vietnamese that if they were going to talk shit, make sure I wasn't Vietnamese and that people don't understand them. Their shocked faces made the whole experience worth it tbh. In short, these people are probably going to talk shit about you the whole time.
