5 stars for quality of service and high attention to cleanliness / hygiene! When I first walked in,…read moreI thought WOW this place is beautiful and *spotless.* I also felt safe coming here because they had their Covid procedures posted and clearly visible in the reception area. My sister and I booked appointments the night before the scheduled date. They were able to accomodate us on short notice, so we felt really lucky! Laura worked on both our pedicures (our appointments were one after another, if we booked more in advance they would have been able to schedule us at the same time). She was incredibly caring and checked in to ask if the temperature of the water was ok, if ever I felt uncomfortable to let her know, if the color was OK after she put a drop on the first toe. I could really tell that they are very attentive to their customers and care about helping them feel as comfortable as possible! I'm so happy with how pretty my toes looked at the end of the service (light cotton-candy pink). It was such a relaxing and pleasant experience! It was the perfect way to check something off my list of things to enjoy during my vacation.

I just booked regular polish for both of us since I didn't want to do gel with COVID uncertainty. There was no pressure at all to upgrade on the call or when we arrived the day of. (You know how it can be...) First impressions walking in: Very clean and bright. Hand sanitizer was right by the door and they asked us to wash our hands at the sink. Because my friend and I were in the same bubble, we could sit side by side for both pedis and manis. There was plexi glass separating us from the staff and each other when we were getting the manis. They opened up new tools in front of us. Again, important during a pandemic or not!! No one needs a nail infection... Parking: SO MUCH street parking all over. And free! Overall, it was wonderful. The owner is so fun to chat to too!! I would definitely return again the next time I'm in the area.

I came here for a pedicure and unfortunately wasn't very impressed with my first experience…read more The first thing I noticed was that the arm of the pedicure chair was pretty dirty. The pedicure started off fine with soaking and exfoliating, but when the technician was cutting my nails, she accidentally cut the corner of my left big toe and it started bleeding. She noticed right away and took care of it, and the bleeding stopped quickly. I've had many pedicures before and this was the first time I've ever been cut to the point of bleeding, so I didn't feel comfortable having her continue. I asked her to just colour my nails. Another technician ended up taking over and she was much better and seemed more experienced. My biggest issue was really the cleanliness. Besides the chair, the UV/LED nail lamp was visibly dirty with a lot of old stains and residue on it. Overall, the service was okay, especially after the second nail technician took over, but between getting cut and the cleanliness of the place, I wouldn't come back. I'm very surprised with the good reviews on Google.

I called on a weekday and with short notice was able to get an appointment for a pedicure($35). Upon arrival I changed my mind to get both a mani and pedi ($55) which they were happy to accommodate. It's a nicely laid out salon, airy and clean with plenty of room to accommodate customers and was fairly quiet during my visit. I took a seat in one of their massage chairs and was offered a drink as the pedi service began. I enjoyed the experience and left thoroughly relaxed. They did a good job with my nails though some areas could use improvement (better shaping for instance). Overall, a good experience here and I would definitely recommend for a nice ambiance, friendly service and good value for money.

How is this helpful for this time? I won't be back.

I went on their website and saw they have 1 hour foot massage with head and shoulder massage, so I called to make a same day booking. The receptionist was very helpful and made the booking for me. She also informed me that there was free parking across the street. The location is great too, it's just 5 mins walk away from the Gilmore sky train station. As soon as I walked in the receptionist, her little white poodle, my therapist Huma came out to greet me and asked what I need and why I needed to come in. I was seated on a comfy lazy boy chair. The rooms are clean and with dim lighting and spa music. Huma prepared a bowl of warm water to soak my feet to start. The massage was great to the point that I almost fell asleep. Huma was very knowledgeable on which area to press on the foot to release body stress. After massaging my feet, she targeted on my leg cramps area. She was able to relief my leg cramps and wrapped a hot towel after the massage. Overall, I would recommend this place if you are looking for a quick massage.

No hands were washed before touching our faces and oil and lotion was applied over our makeup without warning. I'm pretty sure we got scammed lol. Save your time and money.
