    Awesome service very attentive and the lady was easy to talk to. It was very relaxing and the technician had great customer service. The manicure and pedicure came with a great massage as well. I would recommend to anyone wanting great service, relax, and feel restored.

    Loveee how they did my nails I've been going here for 5 years. The owner is very kind and employees understand what I want always.

    More glue left over

    I never leave Yelp reviews but here is my one and only experience: I went right when they opened and was helped immediately which is nice. I asked to get a regular pedicure, remove my acrylics, and get a gel manicure. An older woman did my pedicure. She did a pretty good job but she cut my foot once. She applied the antiseptic and kept it pushing. Accidents happen so no big deal at this point. Now she's doing my nails. She removes my acrylics but leaves glue ALL over my hands (see pics). Okay it'll come off in the shower. I'm trying to be a good sport. Then she cuts my pinky. It bleeds and she wipes it (see pic). Still no apology for either cut. She keeps it pushing. Now the big one. She cuts my index finger BAD. We go through three wads of toilet paper and my finger is dripping blood. She tries to paint it while it's still actively bleeding so I tell her "no, I need to go wash my hands to try to stop the bleeding before you can paint anything." I wash my hands. It's still bleeding. Now she says sorry and the owner comes over. She says she is going to do my nails now. She puts neosporin on it and works on my other hand while my index finger stops bleeding. The bleeding has now calmed down so she paints my hand and apologizes. Now I'm a good sport but I got cut 3 times and they apologized by removing $10 and charging me $50. Not good customer service if you ask me but I was ready to be out of there.

    Ombré manicure
    Brianne B.

    I love this place! They were super busy when I walked in and they were able to give me a pedi. Then I booked an appointment the next morning for a manicure. And I'm in LOVE with my ombré nails!

    It was 45 for powder new set. The lady got me a few time n made me bleed but I live this love always comes out good. They were also really helpful with helping keep My baby happy since I brought him with me this time . Over all love this place

    Barriers
    Liszette G.

    This salon is best for pedicures! They were very clean pre-covid. They still continue cleanliness, and use barriers in their tubs. Cindy does the best at pedicures! She's very detailed, and is so nice. They offer hot rocks & hot towels. Plus they have massage chairs.

    So I just read the response to my review. Seriously?? Here are the texts. SHE admits she needed…read moreto do a more thorough consult, then asks me when I can come in to fix it as we talked about after I paid her (which I responded). She then tells me she doesn't have her appointment book with her on the weekend (which ironically the original appointment was made on a weekend), then she stops responding. ONLY after the salon owner saw the Google review did she send me a text- on September 5. "I was told by the salon owner....." She says that the reason for not getting back to me were family issues. So which is it? Family issues or the client is the problem? Like I said, IT IS ONLY HAIR! No big deal. But treat people right and be honest!

    I got my a lash fill done with the lady here because my regular person is out of town. WORST…read moreMISTAKE OF MY LIFE!! Instantly I noticed this lady wasn't separating my lashes to add a lash extension! It felt like she pushed them on with her finger and she put a tone of glue that all my lashes stuck together in clumps. THEY ALL CAME OFF IN CLUMPS ALONG WITH MY NATURAL LASHES. Please if you care about your lashes dont go here!! My eyes are hurting posted pictures of the day they where done and of the second day.... Ive been getting lashes done for a while now and have NEVER experienced anything remotely close to this
