    This is my go to nail place! They are always so welcoming and respectful, not to mention they do the BEST job on my nails every single time! I came here a couple of times during my pregnancy and OMG the lady that did my pedicures was an absolute godsend! I wish I had gotten her name, but she always gave me the best foot massages. I give her all of the credit for me not getting cankles LOL! 10/10 love this place!

    I have gotten pedicures and manicures here several times and I have never left disappointed! Today I got a pedicure and of course enjoyed my complementary mimosas. The atmosphere was relaxing and fun and I will definitely be bringing more of my people!

    The BEST nail salon I have EVER been to! I can't say enough about this place. I've made several appointments not because I just need it but because I want to go! Like- take my money. They are amazing nail techs and obviously take care of their clientele. Also very clean!!

    My nail after it chipped off the DAY BEFORE my wedding

    I honestly feel super sad leaving this review but this used to be the nail salon that I went to in Birmingham anytime I wanted my nails done for the past year. Usually they do such an amazing job and leave me extremely happy EXCEPT for when I went to get my wedding nails done I think the nail tech who had me was super new first and foremost. I asked for a classic French manicure and even showed pictures of what exactly I wanted. I wanted dip done and once he finished my nails, I kid you not, they looked BARBIE pink, not anything like the pictures I had shown him. I had even told him a few times prior to even getting my mani that these nails were for my wedding day. If he wasn't experienced in doing the nails, he should've just been honest and upfront and had someone else do them! Once I brought it up to him that this wasn't what I had wanted, other techs started coming up to us and one even was like "why didn't you mention this wasn't what you wanted when he did the first nail?" Truth be told, I didn't realize the nails were gonna look this pink until the end. So now that both my hands have Barbie pink dip polish on, he proceeds to do a lighter coat of GEL polish on top of my dip. At the end, my nails looked soooo thick! It looked like I had digital clubbing (AKA alien nails). To make matters worse, the day before my wedding day, my nail polish started bubbling up and then chipped off and I had to make an urgent nail appointment in chicago (where my wedding was) to get my whole nails redone! I was so scarred that I didn't even choose French mani for the second one and ended up going with a white ombré so that way I wouldn't get pink again. Honestly, I've just been so scarred by this whole experience so I don't think I'll ever be back to this salon. The only reason I'm giving three stars instead of one is because of all of the other great experiences I've had with this salon previously. I'll blame it on the nail tech for this last time, but really and truly they made me feel like I was the problem whenever the nails I got wasn't anything like the picture I had showed of what I was expecting

    Jimmy did a great job on my pedicure. Love the ideas of the rewards car and the complimentary beverage. I'll definitely be back.

    My nails look fantastic! Thank you Nick!! I had a dip manicure with almond-shaped nails.

    Cute bar up front!

    Came at 4:45 on a Saturday afternoon and was almost seated right away! I was shocked but I must have come at the perfect time. Alex did my pedicure and it was really nice (especially paired with a glass of Prosecco). Nina did my nails and was unbelievably kind and I could really tell she was making sure she was doing exactly what I wanted plus giving her opinions on other options which was nice! She took her time and did great. Everybody here seemed really happy and it seemed that most of the other clients there were all regulars. I did think $88 for s&s with a little design was a bit steep but from what I hear that's about what everybody is now charging! (Haven't got my nails done in a while so was a bit of a shock!) - either way I would definitely recommend this place to anybody! I saw a few other peoples nails there with designs and they were gorgeous!

    First visit here & staff was friendly. It was busy but there were a lot of employees so we didn't have a wait. I got the nail bar pedicure with regular polish & I would return! Enjoyed the mimosa also!

    I think I got a new girl. She wasn't very good. Had to go somewhere else and get another pedicure the next day.

    One thing I was wonderfully surprised about was they had SNS colors that did not contain slimmer/glitter!

The staff is sweet and personable as well as Spanish-speaking. They offer many services including all of the current nail trends and a variety of polish colors. Vernee (the owner) is so nice, down to earth and knowledgeable. She makes sure that each patron is satisfied with the service and attends to her own clients. I called this morning to make an afternoon appt for two pedis. I find it best to make an appt. As a "walk-in", wait times can be very unpredictable. My sis and I arrived on time. We entered and were greeted with many smiles. By the time we'd signed in and each picked out polish colors, we were being directed to sit in the pedi spa chairs. The chairs are a bit dated but are very comfy and provide a nice chair massage. Ruth did an amazing job on my deluxe spa pedi. She listened to my requests and applied her professional touch! Afterward my feet were smooth, moisturized, neat and pretty! The deluxe spa pedi included the soak and pedi, a foot scrub and exfoliation, a foot/leg mask and hot towel treatment with massage, and polish. Needless to say, I'll be back!

    Came in on yesterday for a dipping powder appointment with Anh. Originally I scheduled the…read moreappointment for 1pm but changed to 12p since I was told she had a 2pm appointment. I changed to have more time instead of being rushed, as these were my birthday nails and I wanted them to look very presentable. I've been to this shop a few times before and have never experienced this rudeness and unprofessionalism I received yesterday. I showed Anh what I wanted done and she confidently agreed she could do the designs. My nails were rushed the entire time during the design part. What was suppose to be an ombré French tip, was not. I calmly stated to her that it did not look ANYTHING like ombré. She simply took the tip of a brush and just dabbed dipping powder on top, then she immediately became dismissive and rude once I explained to her the design wasn't accurate. She rolled her eyes several times and scoffed repeatedly while finishing and correcting my nails. Once finishing my nails, Anh went to the back room of the shop instead of immediately checking me out. I stood up front waiting to be checked out longer than I should have after an unprofessional service. I will NEVER be back to this shop for the way I was treated yesterday.As a registered nurse, I take pride in how people are treated. I'll for sure make sure other nurses and doctors don't come here as well.
