I wouldnโ€™t recommend this salon at all. โ€ข First off, the guy who wasnโ€™t even working on me was rude from the start. He also walked up to me way too close in a disrespectful way until I gave him a look to back off. โ€ข I originally wanted Hello Kitty nails, and when I showed the design, the nail tech just said he โ€œdidnโ€™t have timeโ€ to do it. โ€ข They told me they didnโ€™t have gel (which makes no sense at a nail salon), but then I literally saw them using gel on another walk-in client right after. โ€ข The treatment between me and the other client was noticeably differentโ€”way less friendly toward me. On top of that: โ€ข I paid $70 for short French tip square nails. The nails themselves arenโ€™t bad, the design looks okay, but not what I wanted. โ€ข Another guy picked a color for me that I didnโ€™t like. When I said no, he pressed me about โ€œwhyโ€ instead of just letting me choose. He even said there were no other optionsโ€”until the actual nail tech showed me a different base color. Overall: nails came out fine, but the service was rude, dismissive, and honestly not worth the price. Iโ€™d skip this place.

I came here today for the first time to get a gel manicure. Peter was fast, efficient and professional. He did a great job doing my nails. The price was reasonable. Parking was a bit challenging on the street. I will refer my friends here.
