2025-12-10theyโre super nice and lovely ! I just moved to Hayward and the drive herd was so worth it. Iโm not usually a fan of nail salons but Ivy (the nail tech who did my nails) is as really fast and her work is perfect, down to the shaping and setting the acrylic down. She did it so fast too. Iโm glad they still offer acrylic and not just gel x ! Thank you so much Ivy !

2025-11-25My first time trying cat eye and loved the color and shape! I was going to add chrome but felt they looked good enough without. I still get compliments on them after 1-month grow out and thereโs been minimal to no lifting which I love the most because I often peel it if it sticks out.

2025-08-22Truly the best nail salon Iโve been to. Tiffany did my nails and was the best. She was so sweet and made sure I was comfortable. She gave me exactly what I asked for with no hesitation or complaints. The staff are kind, the salon is clean, and they provide refreshments. I came in to get my nails done but they also offer other services like lashes and waxing. Iโll definitely be coming back!

I showed Lynn an inspo photo and she was able to match the design exactly. Manicure and Pedicure were done above and beyond standard with lots of care. Will 100% be coming back.
