She took her time with me and explained why my nails were the way they were, which I really appreciated. She also helped me pick the perfect color for my skin tone. She was very knowledgeable about warm and cool tones. As someone who already pays attention to what colors complement my skin, I was impressed that she picked up on that so quickly and guided me toward shades that truly worked for me. The inside was super busy, which tells me this place gets a lot of attention, especially being so close to the school. Despite that, I never felt rushed. I definitely plan to keep coming back every few weeks to maintain my nails. It is exciting to finally feel excited again about getting my nails done by someone who clearly knows what they are doing.

Rude awakening for me a few weeks ago when I tried this at another Squirrel Hill establishment. But - when I called this salon, the super nice woman who answered told me to come right in. Turns out she is the owner with her husband - and they both really work their tails off! She did me and 2 other women inside of an hour, and my pedicure was quite good! She gives a mean massage, too, and really pays attention to detail when she's painting. The shop is below ground off Forbes - well marked - and very clean. I'll definitely be a regular. Hurrah!

Whatever you do, please do not go here. I thoroughly read the reviews online and looked at all the…read morepictures that were posted, and I was confident Nivy could handle what I was asking for -- unfortunately, I was wrong. At the beginning of my appointment, I showed Nivy a picture of multicolor nails with a French tip -- very basic. Instead of multicolor, I asked for green and blue and specified that I wanted one finger green, then one finger blue. That was not what I got. Let me walk you through the appointment. After Nivy put down a coat of green on all my nails (which I was happy with), she said, "You want me to do something, or you want what's in the picture?" I said, "As long as they look good, you can do what you'd like with the blue." I didn't like what she did with the blue, so she removed it and started over to do what I had originally asked for. At this point, I asked her again -- one nail green, then the next blue -- which she did as a base, and it looked great. Then she used the opposite color for my French tips, mixing blue and green on the same nail. At this point, I just sat there in silence, trying to process the confusion I was feeling. At no point during my appointment did I ever ask for blue and green to be on the same nail. Not once. To make things worse, my cuticles bled because she cut them too short. Throughout the appointment, Nivy made multiple unprofessional comments, including crude remarks about a president (whom I also dislike, but it was just vulgar and unnecessary). There were also several open bottles of alcohol around the salon. While there was a beverage cart with hard liquor -- which I didn't mind -- there were also opened bottles on the floor in a bag, an open container behind the sink, and used shot glasses sitting out on a shelf in plain sight. At that point, I just asked to pay and leave. I'm writing this review sitting on my couch crying. I had such an unpleasant experience and will not be returning -- nor will I recommend anyone go here.

Nivy takes so much time and care with my nails from the manicure to the design. I've never had nails stay on as long as they have been since being a client here. Her shaping and design skills are ON POINT. She's great for communicating with concerns and questions before and after the appointment as well. Honestly have nothing bad to say. I'm a client for life. LOVE LOVE LOVE! You won't be disappointed.

Three weeks later, my nails have not chipped at all, and they still look as good as they did the first day I got them done.

And, I had the absolute driest feet I've had in my life, and the tech was so thorough with using the drill to get rid of my dry skin. I also received an amazing leg & foot massage. The entire gel pedi service was 90 min, which goes to show the attention to detail, and lack of "rush". Can't wait to come back for the manicure!
