2025-08-03I was blown away by the service I got at Serenity Nails -- I went in to get my nails done for my wedding, and they delivered!! I showed them a photo of a design I liked and they did an even better job than the photo. They were so attentive throughout the whole process, redoing nails to make sure they were absolutely โจ perfect โจ even when I didn't ask, and I was overjoyed by how they turned out. I got dozens of compliments and can't wait for my next excuse to get my nails done by them! They are absolute experts at their craft!
