    Off White Chrome

    Miss Julie never misses! This would be my second time with her and she did an amazing job. Julie would often ask me for my level of comfort and satisfaction throughout the process. The vibe of the nail salon is very clean and they offer plenty of the current trends (cat eye, chrome, etc).

    French tip oval

    The service was great what I mean by great is they were nice and the place was cozy. I wanted a oval French tip, I know that the only place we're you can get a really nice French tip is a personal nail tech but I wanted to try a salon again since I needed my nails done asap. The French tips are nice don't get me wrong but they're are imperfections and when I pointed them out they said it looked fine, I still stated it was clearly not even and she let out a breath and mumbled to herself. I didn't mind this tho of course I was trying to get my nails even and I was pointing out the imperfections, now I should have said this before but when the nail tech was shaping my nails I noticed it was clearly leaning when I asked her if she could fix it she politely agreed but didn't fix it because there was no fixing my nails since my finger was crooked. Still pretty nice job.

    Be careful

    I have been to this place a few times and this will be my last. I went in for a mani/pedi and to start off she starts cutting my nails without even asking what I wanted ! Also the lady who did my daughters nails kept cutting her As for my pedi the lady cut my cuticle too much making me bleed and even made my toe infected! Had to go to the er and wait four hours to drain the pus, worst pain ever!! Never again will I go back Should've went and got a refund Don't waste your money here!

    came here for a dip manicure, but was disappointed for several reasons. i was cut with the drill several times on various fingers and the color came out different on different nails (some were more translucent than others since it was dip powder), nail shaping and sizing was also uneven

    Definitely recommend this place to anyone! I specifically asked for Julie and she nailed what I asked for! Not only did she do exactly what I wanted, she is fast and super sweet! I will be going to this place regularly as I left very impressed!

    I came into this nail salon not too long ago, & have to say I really enjoy the atmosphere. I give this place five stars because of a specific experience I have in mind. I called ahead to make an appointment & was apologetic about being in a hurry. The woman doing my nails actually ended up doing a full set for me in under 40 minutes. No pain, very quick & super cute!

    Left with three bloody fingers and a sliced toe. Paint job not great.

    First and last time coming here, unfortunately. Got a mani/pedi and paid for extra foot massage. Left with three bloody fingers, one bloody big toe, a mediocre manicure, and half a massage. Service: Three fingers got cut. Things happen, this is definitely not the first time my skin has been nicked while getting a manicure but please Acknowledge when you mess up and express concern when someone's bleeding. Not a single time did they acknowledge when they messed up. Not once did they ask if I was ok. On hygiene: the lady doing my manicure was using her own fairly dirty fingernail to correct the paint job (a lot), on fingers with the open wounds. Also (sorry) but they didn't sterilize the wound/ask me to wash my hands/clean the blood before continuing with painting. My toe: it's full on punctured and I can't put pressure on it the next day. While cutting my nail along the side, she sliced my skin about 1/2inch long. Then after slicing the skin, she drove the tool down HARD (maybe to scoop/remove remaining nail?). Omg the pain. Anyways, if someone has an ingrown nail (I'm guessing that's what it was? I didn't have discomfort before) please ask customers if they WANT it removed. No need to be a surgeon. A quick google search shows that the best thing for an ingrown nail is to cut the nail straight and not dig it out. It bled, it's swollen, I can't stand on it, the stinging pain kept waking me up last night. The massage: paid for 10 minute foot massage. Half the time she spent touching up my nails and avoiding the service. Not worth it. The tip: maybe because they knew their service was subpar, she literally stood over me watching me add tip. Super uncomfortable. Felt bullied. $96 down the drain. Would have made a world of difference if either of them asked if I was ok. Adding a star for the salon being clean and organized looking.

    I don't get a pedicure or manicure often but when I do it's always relaxing here. Ask for Tina, she is the best.

They are always very friendly and accommodating for a walk-in appointment. The salon is hygienic and clean. They also have a very nice selection of gel polish colors, especially cateye colors. I recently had an ingrown toenail (my first ever in 33 years) after my latest visit but the owner was quick to help communicate this with the nail tech doing my pedicure so it doesn't happen again. This made me feel very understood and respected as a regular customer here. The owner also tries to remember the regulars at the salon and always offer a warm welcoming, which is very nice of her. They offer a discount for cash payments, but also accept Venmo (even for tips) while credit card has a small charge. I think their prices are very reasonable and definitely cheaper than the last salon I went to before switching to Pedi Nail Lounge. There is a large shared parking lot in front so plenty of parking nearby. I also like that there is a coffee shop (Blvd coffee), food spot (Chispiro's) and Lucky Grocery store right next door that makes the location extremely convenient for me. 5/5 , definitely recommend if you're looking for a new nail salon

The nail tech was super sweet (i think) and the place is immaculate! Super clean!!! As for the nail lady: overall she did an ok job. (I guess) let's get into it. -- sooo during the process I saw that she made two of my nails extremely crooked. The first nail, I noticed was my ring finger. I asked her if she could please file it more because it looked like it was going to too much to the right. Immediately, she said something in her own language to her friend sitting next to her I did not want to assume they were talking about me, but I had a feeling. She did file it and she asked me if it was better and I told her " almost" I requested she file it just a little bit more so it looks more straighter and she started saying something to her friend again. I went from assuming they were talking shit to they most likely were because they were talking in their own language and all of a sudden her friend said in English " she does a good job" and then continue to talk to themselves in their own language so it was very obvious, they said something about me in my request to make my nails straight. This already made me feel uncomfortable to tell her about my thumb, which was ridiculously crooked and very noticeable but I did ask that she would fix that one also and she got my thumb and filed it quickly and was like "is that better?" I just told her yeah, even though it was not better. I didn't want to make a big deal about it but inside I was super annoyed. Nails are expensive and when you go for a service you want it done correctly you don't want to come out with crooked nails. I also asked if she could do a small gel design and I showed her a picture of what I wanted and it was absolutely nothing like I showed her. The design she gave me look like she spilled glue on my nail and was like whatever about it looks nothing like the picture I showed her. I was upset. I just didn't say anything. I'm going to post a picture of the gel design of what I wanted versus what I got. The gel design that I requested was supposed to be what looks like a swirl and thick as I mentioned above, she looks like she just rubbed a glue and the line was super squiggly . As a professional nail tech....like why???? I feel like the potential for this nail tech is absolutely there I just know that I can't ask for a design the next time I try her again. (which I will be going back to her to give her another chance.) I will share a picture of my nails. It wasn't a horrible job, it was just OK. Moving forward if I go with the nail tech again, I will not be requesting for her to do any type of design just because what she gave me was not what I asked for. I'll do an update if I ever go back
