Tina did a great job! I got gel on my natural nails, they’re short and I’m trying to grow them out and she was still able to shape them nicely and make it look good. Also very affordable compared to other places! She also gave a hand and forearm massage at the end which I feel like most salons don’t do anymore so that was nice. Will be going back for a gel pedi soon!

Worst experienced ever. I have been here off and on and I have never been humiliated, even the owner of the salon was acting funny. I came in asking for a peachy summer color they tried to get me to go for a pink. I told him I didn’t like pink this time. I wanted a peach light color and I kept saying to the Owner (hiding in the back) and asked, can you guys get some summer colors and she will not come out she was in the back. She refused to come out And so then finally she came out… it’s funny that they did not have that color until after I was already sitting at the pedicure spa seat. So I said never mind, I’ll just get white with the pearl color over it. Then the owner comes out after the man was finishing off my toenails, they entire staff kept talking in their own language laughing and I know it was about me asking for peach color. I speak English and Spanish and I never Speak Spanish to be respectful. I would not do that to anyone else, that is not appropriate, the whole time they were laughing and giggling and I know they were talking about me. I could see it and you know it all started after the owner came out…this is not the color I want and then there was even a customer next to me who was helping me identify that no they don’t have a close enough Color. I mentioned they should get some of the summer colors. Can you order some and she’s just didn’t say anything so after they were done with my toes, they asked me do you still want to get your nails filled and I said no and I walked up, I paid and walked out.

I bring my elderly mom here for a pedicure regularly and everyone is really nice and they do a good job with her toenails. She had a stroke last year and struggles to speak and they are very patient with her.

Great experience, I got exactly what I wanted. Goof atmosphere, nice nail technicians. Reasonable prices and they let you know if you choose gel so you know it will be an extra charge. I really love their water tubs for the pedicure chairs, they look like mermaid bowls.
