I had been neglecting my toenails having not being able to reach. I walked in for a pedicure and was promptly assisted by Peggy. I am surprised she didn't need to use a chainsaw. Peggy was patient and attentive and took care of both my feet, it was absolutely amazing. Definitely deserved my 100% tip.

This is absolutely the BEST nail salon! We went there regularly for years and then moved up near Sacramento. We have searched and searched and no place compares to Silk. We now drive down to get our nails done as often as possible. Highly recommend the hot lotion manicure and pedicure. Service is excellent.

Had the best experience at this nail salon - I highly recommend visiting! My nails look great. Both Helen and Mimi assisted with my mani/pedi and were extremely friendly, kind, talented. I felt incredibly spoiled and relaxed. They take great care in their customers. Thank you so much!

I didn’t have time to get my nails done before I left for vacation. On the plane I researched salons and found this one and decided to try and see if they had time for a walk-in. The woman at the front very kindly found space for me later that day. Everyone was very nice, and the gel manicure with one acrylic fix (had a broken nail) was solid, and felt worth the price to me.
