I was seated quickly, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming throughout the visit. I treated myself to a gel pedicure and a builder gel manicure. The salon hd a relaxing atmosphere, and I appreciated that I never felt rushed. Unfortunately, the quality of my manicure didn't quite meet my experience. My guilder gel wasn't as smooth was I had hoped and had a few noticeable bumps, and the gel polish started chipping after three days, which was disappointing considering the service. I spent $150 for both services. I'm willing to give them another chance because everyone was so kind and welcoming, and I'm hopeful my next visit will have a better outcome.

I've attached photos showing the condition of my nails. In addition, I felt that my pedicure was rushed. The service advertised a 10-minute massage, but it lasted only about 6 minutes. The massage and other parts of the pedicure felt very brief, and I didn't feel I received the service that I paid for. When I returned to show the chipped nails, I was told they could simply file them down. Filing chipped gel polish does not correct the problem or address why the manicure failed so quickly. I would appreciate a proper resolution.I chose this salon because I expected quality work, and unfortunately this experience did not meet those expectations. They ask customers to leave a review immediately after the service, but I believe reviews should reflect the quality of the work after you've had a chance to see how it holds up. Unfortunately, the quality did not meet my expectations. I won't be returning and cannot recommend this salon based on my experience.

Absolutely not! I decided to give this place a try because…read moreit had such high reviews and it's close to my house. Let me start off by saying that they left my hands soaking in acetone for over 12 minutes and finally once it started burning I pulled my hands out of the acetone. I will never go to another nail salon that makes you soak your fingertips in acetone for that long in order to remove your dip. The person doing it left me there because they went and waxed to somebody's eyebrows. The dip on my nail is over my cuticle and I asked her to do something about it and she just told me that was the shape of my fingernail. I get my nails done regularly and have for years so I know what the shape of my fingernail is. It was such a disappointing experience. I will say that the pedicure was actually pretty good but the packages they show you don't make a lot of sense. It was 25.00 more than what I normally pay at my regular nail place that does a way better job. I asked for 5 minutes of extra massage that I did not get. If you're not going to do the full massage time you should probably remove the clock from the wall. That's what I get for cheating on my regular nail place and I've learned my lesson. I don't know how it has all these high ratings. If you go there, only go for a pedicure. Never again!

I went super excited to get my pedicure ready to enjoy my birthday to only come out, upset, crying, and feeling insulted. The man who did my pedicure came up to me looking upset so I decided to make conversation as I always do. I'm a very cheerful person and a very social person. I even complimented his tattoos and smiled and said hello and all he said was OK. When he began on my toes he kept pushing and pulling my leg for my toes to lay down flat. (keep in mind even though I do acknowledge I have flat feet and unfortunately curved toes. I've never had a problem getting a pedicure.) now this man look frustrated with me even after I apologize multiple times. had my chair pushed up so close that I was in an uncomfortable position. He kept pushing my toes down and signing an anger and frustration. He kept pulling my toes and then getting upset with me when I would cramp up and moved because I couldn't stay in that position that he wanted. finally, after being in so much pain, I told him " I'm so sorry my toes just don't stay like that. This is really uncomfortable" with almost tears in my face, and instead of fixing his position and or hiring his chair he yelled at me, saying just look away, waving his arm at me upset. He said it's so loudly that a person sitting two chairs away from me. Tried to comfort me by saying mine tells me that all the time. I tried to stay still as possible so he wouldn't yell at me again. He only had the massage part left, and I thought to myself finally maybe a few minutes I can relax. He started my timer, then began to fix things on his cart with about two minutes left on the timer he began my massage, tapped my legs and said there. At that point I just wanted to leave. I asked him how much he pointed to the front and said pay up there and walked away. He made me feel humiliated and uncomfortable.
