I am new in the area and was looking for a nail technician who specializes in ingrown toenails…read more Those of us who deal with that have a "special" growth curve to our toenails and to avoid pain as it grows a knowledgeable nail tech is essential. Unfortunately they are far and few. With the good ratings and the appeal of the spaciousness of the salon I decided to make the call and see if I could find what I was looking for. Ivy, I believe the owner (or the manager?) immediately said ask for TT when I came in. TT gave me one of the best pedis I've had. She had a small tool which helps get to the edges of the nail where pain happens over time and did a gentle and very thorough job on all my nails. She was easy to talk to and understanding as well. I have found my salon and tech. I'm thrilled!

This has been my go-to place for dip manicures and gel pedicures, but my last few visits have been…read moredisappointing. I went in on Sunday, Jan 26 for a fresh set. I had a feeling my partner might propose that night, and I wanted my nails to look nice. I decided to try gelx for the first time, and I guess this was a huge mistake. It BURNED like no other under the lamp, omg. They looked nice enough though, and the tech warned me it would burn, so I figured it had to be normal. As soon as I got home, I lost my pinky nail. It just fell right off. By the end of the night, I had lost two more nails. Turns out I was right and he DID propose that night lol which is of course wonderful, but I wasn't able to show off my hands for pictures like I wanted (photo included). By Wednesday, even more had fallen off. I called and explained what was going on and they had me in by the end of the week for a redo, this time with dip powder. It was much better overall--my manicurist was sweet and really took her time, even though this was a complimentary service. However, I was a bit disappointed in the general shaping. She applied tips but didn't follow the natural curve of my nail--a few of them curved up quite noticeably, which can cause separation between the real nail and the false nail. As for today, I came in with the inspiration picture included below--sort of a muted pink/neutral French mani with chrome or some sort of high gloss finish. I showed the tech, and she said she's got it. Well, she looks at my toes and asks if she should use those same colors (French with stark white tips and a chrome finish). I say the main color is good for the fingernails, but the tip should be more pink. She nods like she understands. She starts painting my nails and goes in with the same white polish. I figure I should trust the process, but I ask if she's planning to go over the white with something pink. She says no. I'm confused, but I decide it isn't the end of the world if my tips are white. I notice the white tip on my thumb isn't symmetrical. I try to be straightforward and ask for "more white" on the left side. She looks at the nails side by side and brings out a file to adjust the shape. I think maybe she just couldn't understand me very well. She's about to finish it them off with the same silvery chrome I have on my toes, and I make one last attempt to get something close to the picture. I ask if they have a light pink instead. She runs off, comes back, and does a test nail. It looks a bit pinker, so I say we can use it on the rest. By the time I see them all done, I realize it has a pink-GREEN duo chrome shift. Kind of fun, would be good for a Wicked themed set, but sooooo not what I wanted and not what I asked for. I didn't feel like I could say anything because the tech was already rushing off to complete a waxing service. They were busy and I think my appointment put them a bit behind. Another manicurist I'd worked with previously comes over to take a look, and I think she could tell I wasn't happy. She says I should request her next time. She's always done a great job, so I think I'll have to stick with her from now on. Shout-out to Lee! Or maybe it's Lilo, I'm not 100% sure. I used to feel like I could count on this place to always deliver, but now it seems like you have to stick with your regular artists or risk getting a disappointing result. I wish I could turn back time and request dip powder nails from Lilo on the day of my engagement :( it still bugs me that I had such a manicure fail on the one day I really wanted my nails to look their best. Oh well.

Offered me the drink and color menus, didn't force an upsell on my gel pedi. He also didn't leave my toes looking professionally done. After an hour and 45 minutes in the chair, I left with concave (yea, dipping down in the middle, the opposite of natural) instead of straight nails, multiple areas where gel had cured onto my skin, and a swath of nail glue on my toe for some reason. I'll redo them at home, I don't want to spend another $56. But man, what a disappointment. I can't reshape them because they're so short.

I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the work for both the pedicure and manicure. I felt like the application had been rushed at the other place I had initially gotten the gel x applied, so I decided to try out Kim's instead. And I'm very happy I did. Annie did my nails and took great care in looking at my detailed design idea, asking me what colors I wanted and checking in multiple times to ask if I liked it. My manicure and pedicure are still perfectly intact 3 weeks later. I will say, I would probably give 4.5 stars if I could, just because the pedicure took a long time as the girl doing it was on phone calls/FaceTimes the whole time and kept texting on her phone. That was strange to me, but the gel pedicure has lasted much longer than at the previous place I went to so I'm happy about that. I also did have to wait 20ish minutes after my scheduled reservation time which wasn't ideal. Overall a good experience and will definitely consider going back for my nails again!
