Looks so much more natural than your thick fake acrylics. I paid $80 for a full set which I think is super reasonable ($70 for a full set, she did the cat eye for free!

It was a short walk from Fisherman's Whatrf. The salon is spacious with three pedi stations and one mani station. I'd take the one who cares about the person in front of you and have a pleasant conversation while doing a good, quality job than the ones in a fancy salon who don't care about you and do a half hearted job any day!

They have a large selection of colors, and I loved the red speckled shade I chose. This is a basic, no-frills salon -- no massage chairs, just a long bench with pillows -- but they took their time and did a really nice job. Amy is great. I walked home in flip flops and later changed into flats, which unfortunately ruined my big left toenail (ugh!). I went back the next day and they fixed it without any issue. I appreciated that and would come back again.

My initial return went so well, I've come in numerous times since. They demonstrate great care and attention to detail, every time. There's no haste or rushing, regardless of how busy they are. It's a peaceful experience, like it should be! I've been so happy with them that I came here for my wedding nails. My. Wedding. Nails. And they NAILED IT!!! Really, they were perfect. Maybe the most important nail appointment I've ever made, right? There's no bigger testament than that, is there? 5 stars

First time customer, and Jenny was so patient and kind! I went here with a friend and although we…read morebooked appointments, there were several walk ins at the same time, so the place was super busy. They only had two techs working, so they ended up handling multiple customers at once. It took a lot longer to get our nails done, and Jenny had to stay 2 hours past closing to accommodate us, but she did a fantastic job!! She's amazing at doing detailed designs and is clearly very experienced. I had to pivot from my original design but she was really skilled and I honestly let her have full reign of the new design, but they turned out beautiful. She put a ton of detail into making sure my nails were perfect to the very last minute. FYI a gel manicure with design and gems/pearls (self provided) was $65 pre tip, which is more than they list on the site. They prefer cash but venmo is also accepted. Very peaceful vibe inside, with a restroom and water provided. They don't rush you at all which is nice :)

Really nice salon and my nails are always gorgeous but a few downsides here…read more 1. Every time I've made an appointment and shown up, 2-3 people will work on my nails in one session. They tend to switch off a ton and it's just kind of weird having to explain to many people what I want. 2. A refill for Gel-X has consistently been a 2.5+ hour long appointment. I think it's because of all of the switching off, there's so much repetitive filing. 3. I've never had a set of Gel-X last more than a few days without at least one falling off. I once left the salon and the thumb came clean off within 20 minutes and then I had to wait for almost 45 for them to glue it back on again. Another nail popped off within a day. I really wanted to like this place but can't come back, it's very inconsistent and honestly just a waste of money if I have to keep getting my nails redone before 2 weeks.

I stopped by Paua and got a Milk & Honey pedicure. From the moment I stepped in and was greeted by the Ali, the receptionist, I felt at ease. Ali and my nail tech, Phong, helped me pick out a color for my toenails. The Milk & Honey pedicure comes with an exfoliating and moisturizing treatment followed by a hot oil foot massage. I'm a runner and have gnarly feet, but Phong went to town exfoliating. I was offered water/tea and even given control of the remote control to watch what I wanted to on TV. The space was clean, quiet, and relaxing. The chairs are really comfortable too. Ali was so warm and welcoming, and I was impressed to see her cleaning and helping set up treatments for the next customer. I later learned she was the owner. It's nice to see that attention to detail and care; it reminds me why supporting small businesses is so important. I'll be back!
