After doing some research, I was excited to try Moana Nailsโ€” and Iโ€™m never going anywhere else! They were so accommodating and welcoming; I came in just to double check if they offered the service I wanted, and to make an appointment for another day, and they worked me in that day! Rose spent extra time making sure I was happy with my color choices (base/a shimmering top layer) for my French dip manicure, and did an absolutely beautiful job on the shape and design. She was also very gentle with my natural nails, which I am so grateful for. Their staff is very friendly, and I enjoyed chatting with them. The new renovations are clean and chic, and Iโ€™m looking forward to coming back for a pedicure, too! Overall 5/5 experience, and this new customer is now a loyal customer!

I was in town for a wedding and was able to get a super quick appointment for acrylic nails! The service was exceptional and everything was done within 1 hour. I did not get the name of who did the acrylics but PLEASE let me know if you see this! Ann did the nail color beautifully. The acrylic gel was perfectly thin which I loved, because Iโ€™ve gotten thick acrylic nails before elsewhere that I liked a lot less. I saw some regulars returning in that hour so I know they are consistent, and I would highly recommend for all wedding or other pampering needs.

After a long vacation, I decided to pamper myself with a gel manicure - and this salon exceeded all expectations. The nail artist was warm and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. She was transparent about pricing and went above and beyond to ensure I loved both the shape and color of my nails. The salon is exceptionally clean, and the entire team radiates kindness and professionalism. I truly couldnโ€™t recommend this place more!

I had an absolutely amazing experience at this nail salon and I can't say enough good things about my nail tech, Rose. She was incredibly sweet, patient and very accommodating throughout the entire appointment. From start to finish, she made sure I was comfortable and happy with every step of the process. I came in for a Gel X manicure, and Rose completely blew me away. She took her time shaping each nail with precision and care, and the attention to detail she showed was truly impressive. The end result was flawless. The salon itself is also so clean and pretty!! I've been to many of the nail salons in the area and this was by far the absolute BEST experience I've had!! I'll definitely be returning and recommending her to everyone I know!!

It was my first time getting nail extensions, and my nails were quite sensitive. But Rose was gentle, especially with filing and buffing, and Iโ€™m so happy with the results! The salon does have a strong chemical smell tho, but thatโ€™s understandable given how busy they are.
