    Lovely establishment tucked away on Ocean Avenue. Nu and her team are all so kind!
    Shirley M.

    Nu and her team are so lovely. I'm so happy I stumbled upon this little gem tucked away on Ocean Avenue. I enjoyed my pedicure and really appreciated the attention to detail and care.

    Dinosaur nail art, pedicure
    Bonnirose H.

    Absolutely amazing! They are all so talented and treat you like a lovely person having a day to feel good. So many nail salons treat you like your the car at the mechanic getting maintenance, but the ladies at New Elegant Spa, treat you like one of the gurls. I have never really been a nail girlie, just not my jam and my sensory issues would never! But sometimes I want that feeling of being pampered and treated to someone else's effort. So I tried them out for the classic Mani+Pedi and they talked me into nail stickers (it wasn't a difficult upsell lol) and I walked away actually feeling refreshed and reminded of that feeling everytime I looked at my nails. They were gentle and kind with the pedicure which is amazing as my feet are really sensitive. The massage chairs are also a definite plus! Since that first time I've been back every couple months and have challenged them with nail design concepts that they have always risen to the occasion of! Most places wouldnt consider a tri-color dinosaur design for man+Pedi, but she took it on and knocked it outta the park! (She draws with her small kids alot so she has so much creativity and practice with silly designs lol) They also have a 10 day guarantee on gels! She is absolutely amazing and my last set nearly lasted me a month! Since they don't do acrylics the shop never has that overwhelming stench that the acrylic process brings. 10/10 would bring everyone I can here and praise their skills to mountain tops! Just if you want to get the time and effort, call and make the appointment, cuz while they do a great job when it's packed, it's way more fun when they can relax and hang

    Cannot recommend this salon enough! Nu is super sweet and genuinely cares about her clients and gets to know everyone so naturally. She has so many regular clients including myself now. I have had really bad experiences with gel manicures in the past and had written off the idea of ever getting it again until I met Nu and tried it with her after she listened to my experiences and hesitations. Now, I have been more than happy with her gel -- she's the best !! They last me around 3 weeks if I'm busy and can't see her with no chipping which is super impressive, I use my hands a lot. She also offers 10 day gel guarantee so if there are any issues you can go back in for a touch up but I have never needed to. Also all the ladies who work at the shop are so sweet and really great, it's been so nice to get to know them. I never write reviews but had to because I'm such a big fan! Better prices for cash too! Win win :)

    Free scented cuticle oil for new customers!

    The folks here are all so kind and friendly and I just had the best foot rub I've had in my entire life on just a regular pedicure.

    Hands down best mani/pedi in the area. I personally am impatient and do not like getting mani/pedi and am used to hack jobs. I was so impressed that the nail tech took great care of making sure my nails were filed and my cuticles done properly. Service was thorough and not rushed. They also pampered me, offered a beverage and also gave me a nice parting gift of cuticle oil. What a wonderful experience.

    Nu is the sweetest, kindest and most hardworking person I have ever met. I've been seeing her for my nails for the last 1.5 years and am so excited for her new salon! She does amazing designs and will listen to what you want for your nails and make changes if you aren't satisfied. She genuinely loves what she does and makes you feel so special while you're sitting with her. I won't go to anyone else for my nails and can't wait to see what she does w her salon space - I'll be sure to post updates as I see her for more cute designs!

    Glory B.

    Love Nu and her team! They treat all customers like family. They always do my Mani Pedi in a timely fashion and the massage chairs and hand massages are a bonus. I am always offered something to drink. The quality of their work with the simple Mani Pedi to nail designs is impeccable. Gel Mani lasts more than 15 days. No chips.

    Looks like everything is clean like new and service is friendly. Love my new nail so much. Thank you Nu

    First time here and loved it! Nu did my gel mani with a nail design, and I love how it turned out! She is also just really nice.

Trying to be supportive I kept coming back and made appointments with the people that did a good job. Very sad to leave this review.... I show my appreciation and respect when I am taken care of.... I make appointments in advance to be respectful of their time (I let THEM tell Me what works best for their schedule) I express my appreciation and I tip well. I made my appointment well in advance. My pedicure is done and the person I made my manicure appointment with has not even acknowledged me. No one said they were running late- Sara walked right by me and looked away. Intentionally ignored me. It is an hour past my appointment. She took a walk in during my appointment time and then ignored me. Out of everyone that I have dealt with Sarah is the most rude, unprofessional and disrespectful. I made my appointment with Sara- she did a decent job... but, her demeanor and personality consistently left a lot to he desired. She is not kind... or friendly-- at all. I still returned- trying to support this local business. The owner does not care - at all... they were laughing. I did not make a scene... but said I no longer had time... I do not have 2 hours for an appointment... My gratitude and appreciation to Mia who has always been vey kind and taken good care of me. I will never go back... the way they treated me was mind blowing- going back to Silk Nails. If you ever want amazing customer service - go there. It's worth the drive. I am very regretful that I tried to support DnD since they reopened. Clearly they do not need my business OR YOURS. Back to consistent quality & care. Silk Nails is voted best in the bay tear after year because of the way they treat and care for people. GO THERE! You won't regret it!
