I got a Plexi-gel manicure done a week ago and am so dissatisfied with the outcome. The gal who did my nails used the tool to sand my old plexiglass-gel off (a huge no no) and then added more of the plexiglas-gel and left a lumpy, uneven mess on my nails. I shouldโ€™ve said something, but my appointment took over 2 hours and I had to leave for a trip the next day and just wanted to be done. I came to this place because my regular salon couldnโ€™t get me in before my trip. I was really hopeful that I would find a place that does natural nails close to home; this is not that place! I spent a $102 for awful nails that I hope can be fixed by my regular nail place. I do not recommend this place at all.

I love my nails! Maggie was excellent and extremely detailed making sure the gel polish was perfect. It truly was a relaxing pedi/mani experience. I called that morning and made a same day appt, which then started right on time. Clean and charming salon. Thanks!!

I have a gel nail polish sensitivity/allergy and was able to get a gel manicure here! If youโ€™re looking for a nail place that for sure offers HEMA-free gel nail polish, Iโ€™d highly recommend going here! They had great service with lots of colors to choose from.
