Christanne C.

Went in on a Wednesday at 5:36pm. Waited until 6:23pm for someone. Everyone was busy. That's usually a good sign. I've been here before a long time ago and 7 months ago to get nails done the day before my birthday. When I got my nails done the day before my birthday (which was also a week before my due date), my nails looked good inside the salon, but when I got to my car to send pics and videos, they looked bad. I went back in and they fixed them. Only issue was a few nails were filed so thinly because she had to redo them. Otherwise, they looked much better. I got my nails done 2 days ago, and I was pressed on time. I have a 6 month old, and my timeline was to get my mani/pedi done before my husband came home with a hungry baby since I'm breastfeeding. Well, the wait was too long, so I switch it to just getting my mani/have them fix 2 broken nails. Everything turned out decent in the amount of time I was there. It was $25 plus tip to do my cuticles, cut and shape my nails and "fix" the 2 nails. One day later, my broken nail was still jacked up on the side but had some protection on the rest of the nail. I don't really have time to go back before we leave on a trip, so that's why I'm rating them a 2 star. If it was as done correctly the first time (both times), I wouldn't need to go back. It's fine though because I have everything I need to fix it myself at home. I just didn't want to have to do it at home. This place is fine since it's cheap, but it's a reminder that you get what you pay for.

Sage Cateye
Jocelyn I.

Had a botched job done elsewhere that was supposably "cateye" but was just a straight line of glitter. So I kept searching on yelp for a good nail place and stumbled across Leah's salon. I went in and Leah saved the day! She did such an amazing job from shortening the length to making them slimmer and doing an amazing job with the Cateye! 10/10 for sure, I am absolutely happy with her work definitely returning

In love! thankfully Leah came to the rescue, reshaped and redid the design.

In love! I had some botched job somewhere else and thankfully Leah came to the rescue, reshaped and redid the design. Super patient and gentle when doing your nails! 100% will come here again even.

White tip manicure
Vee M.

I recommend Leah's salon, I don't get my nails done as often. But when I have, I always come here. I call ahead of time to double check if they are taking walk ins and they always take me as soon as I get there. I don't get anything fancy just a manicure and always satisfied with the outcome. The simplest things can also turn out ugly but not for me. I went today in the morning and it was a full house and the lady that helped me was really nice and cleaned up my nails beautifully.

Polygel with uneven layers
Brenda S.

Don't come here if you're looking to get Polygel, because they don't know how to correctly apply it. This is the 2nd time I have come in where the nail tech got upset that I brought up concerns about how the Polygel application looked like and told me to wait until the end. I've gotten Polygel before and know how the process goes, so each time it gets to the end she can no longer fix what I had asked for in the beginning :( I gave the same nail tech another chance thinking it'd be better, but it turned out even worse than the first time I got Polygel with her. The layers are uneven and my fingers got burned with the machine she was using. But what was truly disappointing was how they treat their customers.

Cat eye gel nails

Leah is very sweet and funny; she has a great vibe. I love my nails I got Cat eye gel and they're so cute.

Entrance
Jonnita W.

Very very small location. But I was happy to be able to walk in and get taken care of right away. The staff was very friendly. I think there were about maybe five staff members working this day. I want to say there about four pedicure chairs and I think three desks For nail tech, and then the little counter that you paid when finished. I really liked how my nails were done through the whole process, especially having shellac over my own. I did not feel as though my nail bed was being destroyed from taking off the previous color. at the end, there was a quick but nice hand and arm massage after. But if you're looking for someplace not as crowded and friendly and you're not too far from the area, try them out see what you think overall, my service, for my gel manicure was $35.

Almond shaped, acrylics
Savannah B.

This shop is awesome, Leah is amazing, and they have a great atmosphere. You can tell the community loves them. I went in as a walk in and they sat me fast, I didn't catch the lady's name who did my pedicure, but she was really sweet and did a great job, and then I was also really lucky to get Leah as my nail tech that day and of course she did my nails so bomb!! Great community nail shop.

Nails on point!!!

Obsessed with my nails! Leah was so sweet and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. She took her time and really made sure everything was perfect. Can't stop looking at them!! Highly recommend

Perfect for a gala!

She's friendly and professional. Brandon and the front desk staff have been welcoming and helpful. I didn't catch my manicurist's name but he was able to address my initial concerns. I then noticed spots of uneven polish application after leaving the chair. Today's visit showed me that they really do care about the quality of their work and customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay longer this visit for my manicure correction, but they reassured me that I can come back and they can fix it with no problem, which I greatly appreciate!

Cue NaiLAX - modern, spacious, clean, and inviting interior. I called in yesterday to schedule a mani/pedi for today and they fit me in right when they opened. I was offered a beverage when I walked in and quickly got me situated in a chair. Vinny did my manicure and I wish I got the name of the tech doing my pedicure, but both were really meticulous when it came to shaping and cleaning! I always fear getting cut on my toes, but not a single cut today! Walked out of there feeling like a new person. Super friendly staff and can't wait to come back. Bonus points for whoever curated the playlist because it definitely gave me mid 2000's MySpace music (think Stevie Hoang & George Nozuka) vibes. Wish I had my hands free to Shazam a few tracks.

Mind you, they already had me waiting until 215 when my appointment was at 2. She scraped off my entire nail bed and drowned my nails in acetone, so now they're super weak and painful. Never going back. EDIT based on response: It is not the customer's responsibility to notify the salon of hard gel removal because I assumed everyone at the salon is capable of doing so. If only certain techs are able to do it, then it should be the salon's responsibility to ask the customer when booking the appointment - since it's such a big issue. Been about 1 week and nails are peeling and not healing. Great.
