TL;DR: Walked in on Saturday at noon, not greatly greeted, French Mani/Pedi service, took about 1.5…read morehours total (including drying time), deluxe pedi = $35, mani = $25, $5 extra for French so $65 total. I arrived around noon on a Saturday. There were about 10 technicians and all had a client with them. I didn't really get greeted, but overlooked it and asked for sign in sheet. This salon takes appointments so I will suggest making an appointment for possibly quicker accommodations (I say possibly because I have noticed that even though some did have an appointment, there was still a short wait time). I requested for a manicure and pedicure and waited for about 10 minutes before I was escorted to a pedicure chair -- there was no one in front of me to be seated next. Even though I am explaining my initial interaction in detail, I expected a wait time as it was a weekend, and that's when most people have the time to also get pampered. I WAS OKAY WITH THE WAIT TIME. This salon also offers free WiFi for their guests. The basic pedicure was $25, and I cannot attest to what all is included in that because I chose the deluxe pedicure which was priced at $35. This included old nail polish removed, toe jam dugged up, cuticles trimmed, a nice sugar scrub from your knees down, followed by the paraffin wax for your feet, then a nice hot stone rub to your calves before finally masking your calves in a clay mask and wrapping them with a warm towel. The deluxe pedicure also offers you a free glass of wine or beverage, however I declined the offer. If you're looking for a nail salon that likes to punch and beat your calves and pluck your toenails, this may not the the one for you. While my legs and feet were basking in the warm towel and wax, he started working on my hands that had remnants of 2 month old gel polish. They soaked each finger with acetone and cotton wrapped in foil, and what I appreciate most about this place was that they placed one of those food handler gloves on each hand so that you can still use your phone! (Photos attached). I have gone to many nail salons in my lifetime and have never seen this. It also helps with acetone leaking from the foil and obviously the intense smell. Once he finished wrapping my fingers, he continued to remove the wax and towel and paint my toes as requested (I'm a creature of habit so I always choose French manis/pedis + it always matches whatever I'm wearing, and if I let my nails grow out, it won't look AS bad as a fully polished nail). After finishing the pedicure and polish, he moved me to a desk to begin my manicure. With the manicure, he gently removed my old gel polish, trimmed cuticles, buffed, and oiled my cuticles. THEN HE APPLIED LOTION AND PROCEEDED WITH THE HAND/FOREARM MASSAGE. I stated this in all caps because typically the lotion and hand massage comes at the end of the manicure service, however, I really enjoyed it before the hand-washing part because I usually don't like the oily residue that is leftover from them lathering up my hand with the massage and lotion. For context, I decided on a French manicure using regular polish instead of gel this time so I am not sure if the order of events will differ for a gel manicure. After he massaged my hands, I went to wash it off, and he finished the manicure with the polish. My technician was an older gentleman who was very kind and friendly. We kept conversation at a minimum in the beginning, because sometimes when people get pampered, they just want to relax. I'm the same way. I did warm up to conversation near the end of my experience. The pedicure itself took about 45 minutes, and the manicure was about 35ish minutes. I was there for about an hour and a half total because since I did regular polish, I wanted to make sure my nails were dried before taking off. I wanted to give this review my full experience, because it was the kind of content I was searching for when reading reviews. I was trying to compare the types of services offered, prices, as well as the "extras" that you can receive during your service (ie, paraffin wax, sugar scrub, etc). As for the environment, the space is pretty spacious. There are about 10 pedicure chairs and probably 15 or so manicure desks (I didn't really count). The waiting area consists of 2 couches and a few individual chairs. I cannot attest to how many different colors or gels or powders that they had as I was not looking for any colored services today. Upon walking in to your right in the center-ish is suppose to be a secretary. She was not there when I initially walked in but noticed her while I was having my services done. The technicians did chat amongst themselves to each other, but if you were on your phone or focused on something else, then it probably wouldn't have bothered you. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here and will most likely return (and probably will set an appointment ahead of time to avoid long wait times).

As soon as I walked in I just got a good vibe- the walls are painted this nice teal color, like the color of a tropical ocean- it's really decorated like a place that is named "Beach Ready" and it just puts you at ease. Although, it's kind of hidden in that strip mall, I drove past it my first time, but once you find it you're good to go. I got my brows done by Kim- she did an incredible job! I just wanted a clean up to make my brows look put together again and she just did amazing, got them all tweezed and trimmed and I am just so happy with them. Kim was just the sweetest gal, we had a good flow of conversation the whole time and it didn't feel forced, it was just nice and enjoyable. It was also super easy to make an appointment online through their website, and you can put your credit card info on their before you even go for a visit and then they will just charge your card after you go, and you don't even have to worry about bringing payment with you, which is so nice. I haven't gotten any of the other waxes done here, but the brow appointment only took about 15 minutes including filling out the beginning information, so it's a super quick, easy process as well. Obviously other waxes take more time, but just overall I was so happy with my experience here! They have another location in Brandon as well.
