2025-12-12I always have such a great experience here! The atmosphere is welcoming, fun, and relaxing, and they always are always willing to squeeze you in. Katie always does my nails and she does an amazing job every single time her work is beautiful and consistent. Ken is hilarious and always joking around, which makes the whole experience even better. It’s such a positive, upbeat environment and I genuinely look forward to coming in. Highly recommend!

2025-09-11I have been consistently getting my nails done here for about 3 months. Every time they my nails, they do the best job and get me scheduled in quickly. Katie and Nicole are amazing at designs. Sometimes it can be awkward and boring at other places, not here!! They joke, tease and genuinely make the whole experience so much fun! I would recommend Vanessa Nails all day everyday!

2025-11-23When I tell you that I am the pickiest person when it comes to my nails, this is an understatement. I stopped getting my nails done for about a year because I couldn't find a place that they didn't pop off within the first few weeks. NOT HERE!! I saw nicky for the first time just over a month ago. Not only is her work perfection, I had NO lifting on any of my nails. Definitely using quality products which I DO appreciate. I will follow Nicky wherever she goes... She is stuck with me for life. I've never in 44 years had anyone do my nails exactly the way I like them. She knows going forward she has full creative control. Love this place!!!!!
