The first time I came, they accommodated me since I came in near closing hours on a weekday. The female worker who answers phone calls in the front and also work on customers, were already gossiping about me with another coworker who was doing my pedicure. I came back the second time only because I like the gel polish color they had. However, I truly regret coming back. That same female worker who works in the front, receiving clients' phone calls, spoke very badly about me. I can understand Vietnamese very well, and the whole time she gossiped to the lady who did my pedicure about how fake I look, if my breasts are real, how weak my appearance is. It was extremely hurtful, but I held back the tears until I got home. Not only did they bad-mouth me to their other co-workers, but they were also speaking poorly of other customers who seemed to be their returning clients, referring to them as "cunts" or "witches." Please, please avoid coming to this awful place. Their quality of work is not great either. Her gel acrylic work is subpar, and the nails on my left hand were shorter than on my right, so I had to file them down at home. The lady who did my gel pedicure the second time made my left toe bleed. She also used her fists to pound my calves very strongly, which was not pleasant and felt painful. The workers here are very rude, mean, and unkind humans. Please do not waste your money and business here.

I scheduled an appointment for an acrylic fill with Katie from the recommendation of another staff member over the phone, and am so glad that I did as Katie nailed ;) the design I was going for. I typically experience slight annoyance from nail techs when I bring in inspiration photos that involve a plethora of colors, but Katie was extremely accommodating and was determined to deliver on the design that I had showed her. There were plenty of colors to choose from, and she was kind enough to assist in my color selection when I had trouble finding one of the shades that I wasn't able to locate on the wall. Throughout my service, Katie was not only personable but also extremely diligent and meticulous. After a horrendous experience at the last nail studio that I had visited, I was terrified of the drill and cuticle trimming process, but Katie was very gentle and paid considerable attention to every part of my nail. When it came to the shaping and filing process, she was exceptionally meticulous and made sure to perform a side-by-side comparison of each nail to ensure that that they were uniform in both length and shape. Once she got to the design portion, she was very detail-oriented and took the time to ensure that it was perfectly executed. Needless to say, I'm extremely satisfied with my nails and the level of service that I received. Katie not only perfectly achieved the design that I had wanted but also delivered exceptional service that was both personable and professional. I highly recommend Katie, and will 100% come back for her artistry the next time I get my nails done.

Within only three days, several nails had chipped and peeled badly, leaving them uneven and unfinished. The photo shows how they looked after just three days. I contacted the salon and asked to have the problem corrected by a different nail technician because I was not comfortable returning to the same person. I was told my only option was a redo with the original technician. That did not feel like a reasonable solution after the initial service failed so quickly. I gave the salon an opportunity to make things right before posting this review. I wasn't asking for anything excessive just to have the work properly corrected by someone else. Unfortunately, they were unwilling to accommodate that request.

I've been coming to this salon for years, which is why this experience was so disappointing…read more I made a noon appointment for a manicure and pedicure. Before coming in, I called to ask if I could arrive at 12:15, but they told me they were too busy and that I needed to be there at noon. I arrived around 12:05, and as soon as I walked in, two employees told me they couldn't take me and suggested I come back another day. After I reminded them that I had an appointment, they asked what kind of nails I wanted. When I said I hadn't decided yet, they told me they didn't have time for long nails. I said I was happy to do short nails instead, and only then did they agree to see me. Once I sat down, I was told I couldn't use the same color for my manicure and pedicure because they didn't want to share the same bottle between technicians, so I had to choose a different color for my toes. Then I asked for my usual dip manicure and was told they only had time for gel. When I asked about dip, I was told they had already informed me of that, which they hadn't. If the type of manicure affected scheduling, someone should have asked when I booked the appointment or when I called before coming in. Instead, I felt like I was being treated as the inconvenience, despite having an appointment and being a longtime customer. I ended up skipping my manicure altogether and left feeling disappointed. After years of coming here, this experience was enough that I won't be returning.

They asked for an inspo pic, and it was nice that they give an estimated cost beforehand so you know what you're getting yourself into. Service was great, they put me on a massage chair and had one person working on my manicure and another on my pedicure. They were also super sweet!

I was just going to let it go, but seeing that this happened with the same nail tech more than once within a few hours, I felt it was necessary to write this. I do want to make it clear that this nail tech was kind to me, and wasn't rude at any point of the interaction. Everyone working yesterday was friendly and accommodating of my last-minute call to arrange a pedicure. I just asked for the basic pedicure with clear polish. It took a total of ~30 minutes. I gave an extra star because of the friendliness, and because even the most basic pedicure comes with a hot stone leg rub, which I've never seen at a nail salon before. That part of the pedicure was very enjoyable. I also liked the massage chair, which was firm and not yet worn out, but also not so aggressive on default that I couldn't keep my feet still. I mainly wanted a pedicure to help soften the bottoms of my feet and to have my nails evenly shaped. My last pedicure was about a month ago, so we aren't talking about anything crazy here. It should have been normal operating procedure. On the majority of my toes, the nail tech cut them way too short and filed them to the point she was only filing my skin, and I moved uncomfortably multiple times but it didn't stop her. Afterwards I saw that one of my toes was slightly bleeding, while several others were cut to the quick. She must have seen this, but continued to use the nail tools without hesitation. I'd say it's a health concern, as you never know if the tools are being properly cleaned in between customers. It takes a LOT for me to confront someone and tell them to stop doing something, so while it could be argued that I should have spoken up, I also feel that someone who does this for a living should know when a nail is too short. I am getting a pedicure to relax, not to critique someone on how they're doing their job. Additionally, I know I just asked for a clear coat, but this isn't the first time I've asked for that and typically the nails look shinier than they did after this time, so I'm pretty sure that just a primer was used. I was also very turned off to how all the towels being used were white and stained with who-knows-what beyond nail polish, and although I witnessed multiple employees cleaning, I noticed that the wipes they were using were extremely dirty, meaning they were either reusing them or the place just got that dirty between cleanings.
