The best manicure I’ve ever had. Jeffrey was meticulous and attentive to details. The salon was clean and welcoming. I will definitively be back. I have finally found my nail place!!

I got toe fungus from acrylic nails on both my big toes. My first time here was Mother’s Day and I went back to refill here .I feel like I should have not went back the second time for the refill, they didn’t even do right it wasn’t a full pedicure , very rushed. I now am waiting to see foot doctor so embarrassing. This experience makes me not want to get my feet done professionally again and I have never had this issue prior with any other salons. My entire nail bed I’d almost off because of this experience.

The salon is clean and has a ton of colors to choose from, but my gel nails didn’t even last 2 days before they chipped. I also made an appointment with one person and was put with a different one. I’m extremely disappointed in my experience here

Update: within 8 hours of leaving two nails have cracked. Might be okay for simple manicures, but may want to reconsider if any higher level communication is necessary. Lied about what services they offered over the phone, but gave them em a shot. I knew what I wanted was complicated, but they insisted the two were the same. Instead of a full dip gel French, they did gel dip with a line of gel for the tip. Left green powder on my hand :/ Looks okay but won’t last well. Tips are raw/uneven. I don’t mind switching up designs but I even reminded him about the gems. There’s definitely a language barrier that creates communication issues. Only did two total layers of the dip powder, and did things like put polish on all 10 fingers before dipping. The lines aren’t straight or matching. My husband pedicure took longer than a French gel powder manicure did 🤷‍♀️

u was a first time customer …. wanted pink french the guy had an attitude sooooo bad . like he couldn’t help find the color i was showing him ..: i’ve never been to a nail salon that cannot no WILL not help you find the color match… that’s not all though .. the nails were clonky … like bulky …. he drilled and filed with so much attitude that my finger was bleeding when he was done …. he was sucking his teeth rolling his eyes i mean everything . i even asked the girl in there to help me find the color she said “he’s the expert” i don’t think so with that customer service . mind you , i broke a nail and one is lifting . at the end the price went from 130 to 150 to 170 . smh another money hungry nail shop only this one had horrible customer service . it was the guy in the first chair . it’s not even worth going back to get my nail fixed. the young man that did my pedicure was the nicest one in the whole place. the 1 star is for him. he could’ve waived the $5 for the nail design especially for that attitude it being my birthday AND he caused me to bleed
