I found this nail salon a couple years ago and have become a faithful client! The salon is clean and has great customer service. Diane the owner and her all employees are always so friendly and accommodating to my sometimes chaotic schedule. The pedicures are top notch and very relaxing. See my pic below. I always leave very satisfied with my nails each time I come for a fill. I encourage you to try this place at least once as I don’t think you will be disappointed.

I've been going to this salon for some time now. I am always thankful that Diane manages to schedule me, even when I make last-minute appointment requests. Everyone who works in the salon is friendly and does a great job. I requested Christmas theme nails at my appointment today and Diane took her time to make them beautiful!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I don’t go anywhere else! Diane and Lindsey have been amazing since day one. Their attention to detail is unmatched—perfect shaping, clean cuticles, and polish that actually lasts. Pedicures are thorough and never rushed, and the salon is always spotless and welcoming. They listen to what I want, offer great suggestions, and my nails look flawless every time. Consistent quality, fair pricing, and genuinely kind service—what more could you ask for? If you’re looking for a reliable nail team, ask for Diane and Lindsey. You won’t be disappointed!

Diane and her team are the best! I get my nails done by Diane herself and she is so good in what she does. She is professional and a perfectionist so I can relax and leave everything in her hands! She is also a great person and always so funny and kind. The whole team is also just very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend!
