    Mani and color change on the toes were just ok ‍
    Carres D.

    So, I came from out of town for a wedding. After working 6 days of 12h shifts in the days immediately before my trip, I didn't have time to get a manicure needed for the bridal party. I wanted a basic mani with french tips and a color change on my toes. I just needed quick and basic. Calling in, I got pricing from a nice gentleman but when I arrived, my nail tech had a hard time understanding what I was looking for. We sorted it out in the end but she did a mediocre job. It was just ok. Again, I wanted basic but I expected basic done well. Also, the tech spent a lot of the time trying to upsell me with gel polish. I kept declining and then she basically said that if I leave and mess up the color they can't fix it because I didn't get gel. I was annoyed by this and wanted to leave but in my need to get this one thing taken care of and off my plate, I stayed. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. I would still recommend this place because in observing the work they did with other customers getting more complex services, they really do a good job. If I were to get a full manicure and pedicure or gel, I wouldn't hesitate to visit here. The decor is nice and the space is very clean and organized. They did a great job setting up a serene space in a small plaza. I, personally, just wasn't impressed in this instance.

    I will never patronize this business again. I asked for the Deluxe Manicure ($27 on menu, includes paraffin, massage, etc.) and Deluxe Pedicure ($50 on the menu, includes massage, paraffin, and hot stones). First off, they started doing my nails while I'm in the pedicure chair. I can't relax and drink my mini bottle of wine. But no big deal. Instead I peruse the salon, noticing the disgusting Saran Wrap on the massage controls. Ewww... My nails were short because I had an issue with the gel last time, so the lady asks if I want to add tips to make them longer. I said yes (knowing it would be an upcharge). Pedicure is complete and I am so eager to get out of the awful chair that felt like I was sitting on a metal bar that I forget I didn't get hot stones. I move to finish the manicure. The woman originally doing my pedicure begins the next step on my nails but abruptly leaves after I point out one of my nails is filed lopsided. Another younger girl comes over and she is nice, so fine. The white gel nails are turning yellow in the UV light, so she does them over and was super nice about it. They still turn but it's not as bad. I was going to get waxing done but couldn't decide on exact services until I determined how my brow wax went, so I went ahead and paid for my manicure and pedicure when asked...$116 rather than $77. Fine, I expected that I would pay more for gel and the tips. Then I'm told my mani is over...no lotion, no massage, no paraffin...nothing. I reminded them that I asked for a Deluxe Manicure. Another woman interjected and said that I didn't pay for it. I explained that I had paid $50 for my manicure, which was more than the deluxe. She said no, I got a full set and gel and that's it. I said I requested both Deluxe Mani/Pedi and that I understood there were up charges, which was fine, but I wanted the deluxe services...and mentioned I didn't get the hot stones either. At this point, the manager starts yelling across the salon at me. That was it for me. I don't mind paying for excellent services but I want to get what I request and will not tolerate being treated like a POS. What an a-hole.

    I went for a full set manicure with ombré color. Ivy was my nail tech- highly recommend her. She brought over the original color I selected- I just kind of looked at it...then she politely made a suggestion to get me to where I wanted to be! She doesn't know this but the color she recommended matches the color of my toes :) Moving forward she talked me through the steps she was taking to ensure I understood the ombré procedure. She did two fingers, asked what I thought and I told her I wanted the ombré to start further down. That was no issue for ivy, she filed it off and executed my expectation. My favorite part of her service was that she took into account the size of my fingers as well as my natural nail, telling me she did not want the acrylic too thick on my hands. I loved that. She made sure that I understood I'd need to be more mindful due to the fact they are a bit thinner than your typical set. My only criticism is the filing could be a little more exact however it isn't anything I can't buff out with the file they send you home with after your service! The atmosphere was calm and peaceful, I am pleased with my experience.

    When you get a pedicure you get this baggie that you're suppose to bring with you each time.

    Vibe is good products are cheap and cause skin damage. Charging extra for a shape that wasn't achieved.

    I just recently found this salon but I've been looking for one ever since my regular salon moved…read moreout of town. When I called they told me to come right in and I was really happy they were able to take me last minute. This has continued to be the case, as they seem to always have availability. I THINK I may have found a few salon to go to! It's super clean inside, as well as the bathrooms and they have beautiful artwork! They also have portable charges, cup holders and everything to make you feel comfortable so you can really really relax. Also, the first time I went there my daughter came with me and she was happy with everything as well. She was in need of a whole charger and one of the techs let them use hers which I thought was very sweet and so not expected but I did appreciate it and so did she! Also, the first day I went in there a woman was sleep so I know she was feeling too good! They have a wide variety of colors, I'm not sure of how intricate they are with being able to do designs though. Now onto my nails, they do pretty good, I think the prices are just about what you will find in other places. The last time before last however I went and I wanted to get a French manicure but the guy said he couldn't do it without the top of my nail showing, but I wasn't using tips so I wasn't sure why that was, also my nail broke that same day but I went back a few days later and they fixed it for nothing! That is why I think this might be my new salon because they took care of me quickly with no issues and everyone in there seems nice, they start up conversation and I don't feel out of place there. There set up is also quite beautiful so I love going in there because of that as well and they have free wifi! One issue that I could see happenings is they have a small parking lot that's shared with other businesses, but I've never had a problem, so it hasn't bothered me. All in all I've had good experiences there, just need to find a solid tech that can take care of me regularly, but overall very happy with their services & hospitality and the prices don't bother me!

    First time coming here and I got a pedicure and my first ever manicure. The pedicure was pretty…read moregood and the lady did a great job, I do wish the towels and hot stones were a bit hotter. They do give you a complimentary wine, just one though, and only if you get a certain package and above. Their chairs were nice and they had MagSafe/wireless chargers built in for your phone which I thought was really neat. There are nice paintings in there and it was very clean.
