I will likely not return. 3 Stars

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was unacceptable…read more I booked a Gel-X manicure and pedicure the day before my birthday and spent hours in the salon only to leave without the manicure I came for and with damaged natural nails. Early in the appointment, I pointed out multiple times that red polish from my previous set was still visible underneath. My concerns were not taken seriously, and a full Gel-X set was applied anyway. The red remained visible, and the entire set ultimately had to be removed. After the first Gel-X set was removed, a second Gel-X set was applied despite not having tips that fit my nails properly. The tips had large visible gaps along the sides of multiple nails, particularly my thumbs. When I pointed this out, I was told they did not have a size that fit. Instead of stopping the service, an attempt was made to fill the gaps with builder gel. The lack of technique made the builder gel chunky and they would not file it down, leaving an uneven texture. If the salon did not have tips that fit my nails, the service should not have proceeded in the first place. I asked not to proceed with the service and have the nails to be removed. The problems did not stop there. There was visible debris under the nails, leftover glue, uneven shaping, and repeated issues that I had to point out myself. Throughout the appointment, my concerns were dismissed rather than addressed and the tech ignored my requests. The removal process was especially upsetting. The technician was very rough with my hands, soaking my fingers in pure acetone and then ripping off the nails with her fingers. I repeatedly asked for a different removal approach (filing) and eventually had to pull my hands away to prevent further damage. By the end of the appointment, my nails had been heavily over-filed, were significantly shorter than when I arrived, and one nail was filed so short that it's painful. I walked in with healthy natural nails that I had spent months growing out. I left with thin, brittle, painful nails after two failed Gel-X applications and no completed manicure. The condition of my nails when I left was worse than when I arrived. The only redeeming part of my appointment was the second technician who stepped in at the end. She listened, treated me with kindness and respect, removed glue residue, corrected some of the damage, cleaned up the shaping, and did her best to salvage the situation. I genuinely appreciated her help. I was not charged for the Gel-X manicure and was given a discount on the pedicure, which was the right thing to do. However, that does not change the fact that I lost hours of my day, lost the healthy nails I had worked hard to grow, and left without the service I came in for the day before my birthday. I will never return and I recommend you do not go to this salon

Getting cut with salon tools is not just painful, it's a major health and safety risk. I have no idea if that tool was even properly sanitized, which is incredibly alarming.

Total lack of professionalism and basic safety protocols. The owner must train their staff to prioritize client safety.

They have calm music in the background. The facility was clean. Lots of white and wood. I've never tried an organic nail salon before. This place was unique. You soak your feet in a tub of warm water. The chairs aren't the typical massage chairs you see at other salons. This wasn't a problem for me as it was still comfortable. I elected to get the gentlemen's pedicure which I was told came with a bit extra's from a scrub and extended massage. Unfortunately, it felt like they were rushing here. My pedicure was complete in ~23 minutes. While I am not an expert, that seemed like they wanted us out or were ready to start closing. It would have been better if they told us they weren't taking anymore appointments if this was the case. The service was fine. The technicians were friendly. My massage and scrub didn't feel that great and what I am used to receiving at other salons. It's a cool concept with the organic materials but I probably won't be coming back here.

I went for it since I am open to trying new things, but boy I should have stood my ground this time. She even had to add acetone in the polish so you know it was pretty old already. It started chipping the next day. During the entire process she was trying to upsell me to getting a gel manicure. All she did was make me feel pretty horrible about my nails. I don't get it why this place uses pressure tactics to make more money. Guess when I let her know I was interested in a brow and lip wax she backed off. Doubt I will ever go back here. Only if I am super desperate. I was also the only person there until one other person showed up. That is never the case on a weekend day where I normally go. Hmmm...

Overall Annie did a great job taking my damaged hair and working miracles on it! Thanks Annie!

My nails were literally destroyed because I've been camping and also I've been at the beach. I had three broken nails and my hands were just a mess..

When we arrived, one of us was taken immediately and I had to wait like 30 or so minutes for my nails to be started as the nail tech was running behind. Not a big deal, though, especially since they moved my original appointment for me. I didn't catch her name but the Afro-Latina woman sitting toward the front did a fab job on my stiletto full set with builder gel. Another woman did a fabulous job on my daughter's pedicure ($25). In total, we paid $95 for both services. Everyone here was very nice and they even offered drinks and fresh fruit as a snack. It was clean inside, and the bathroom was also clean. I would definitely return. My nails look exactly how I wanted them to, and we had a good experience.

Now thankfully she is closer and running her own operation, making everything easier (and more affordable)! The salon is based out of an extension of her home, but it's a very nice home and the experience is nothing less than any of the best organic salons. In fact it's better. I've gotten highlights done in many cities on all the major continents and Thao is by far the best skilled natural/organic dye artist I've encountered. She is also an embodiment of the calm, serene spa atmosphere that you want to be surrounded by when taking a break from the everyday world. No loud pop radio or smelly chemicals here - just beautiful calming music and the smell of pure air.

I was greeted by either the manager or owner, she immediately places me down with a lady who had no idea where anything was, I believe it was her first day. I knew I was in trouble. I went in for dip manicure, was there for 90 minutes. And left having to go home and reshape my nail. I'm not a picky person, but every single nail is a different shape. And when I went to pay, the same woman who greeted me never asked how everything was, or anything just wanted her money. I think she knew I was not happy and please with the horrible job that was done. Sad disservice for a first time client. I will never go back and hopefully some readers will save their money reading this review and stay clear of this place.
