2025-08-26Y2k is my go to nail salon. The attention to detail from the technicians is amazing. Whether it’s a simple manicure or a more intricate design, they always take their time to make sure everything is perfect. I never feel rushed, and my nails always come out looking flawless and lasting beautifully. The staff is also incredibly friendly and welcoming. From the moment I walk in, I’m greeted with smiles and treated with genuine care. Please consider Y2K for your next mani/pedi!♥️

2025-07-26You know… this is the best place to go. They do great work. Especially good with my ingrown toenail problem. I walk in with my big toe hurting, and I always leave happy. I started getting gel manicures, too. Great job, looks great. No more shredded cuticles. And my nails are harder so the don’t break.

2025-10-13I am so obsessed with my nails!! My first time going and it was totally worth it💖💖 Krystal was my tech and she did so so amazing! I will definitely be going back again.

2025-08-28This was my second visit, and I booked with Kim. The pedicure is exquisite. I treated myself to a “detox pedicure” with callus removal, a 10 minute massage, and a hot stone massage. What a lovely way to spend my day off. It’s a bright, comfortable environment. The manicurists are so friendly & talented. I’ll be back! Update: came back for a mani-pedi for a wedding I am attending. Both absolutely beautiful. I don’t get fancy nails, but I so appreciate how beautiful a good manicure bakes these hands look.

2025-09-26I had the best experience today. I walked in for a gelx mani and pedi with japanese gel for my bday. Kim was a sweetheart and so kind. I have never experienced such a welcoming at a nail salon. She took her time to ensure my nails are perfect and they were! Tiffany finished up my pedi and was also so nice. The ladies made me feel comfortable and overall welcomed. Mind you, I was new to this salon. I can say I have definitely found my go to salon.
