2025-12-10Iโve been coming here since they opened and absolutely love their service! No one, and I mean, no one can compete with the talent and professionalism. I experience every time I come here. I am a fragrance business owner and people are always noticing my hands/nails so Iโm very particular on who I get my nails done by. Iโve been coming to Katelyn for about five years now, and anytime I show her a complicated or simple design, she executes! The best part is not only is she talented, sheโs efficient! Iโve also had the pleasure of getting my nails done by some of the other women that work there if Katelyn is on vacation and theyโve all been amazing to work with. Iโve attached a pic of my most recent set.

2025-08-21I used to love this nail shop, and my mom, my sister, and I have been coming here once a month since I discovered their Instagram in April. I love their flexible scheduling and how great the nail techs are with their art designs. I also love that they do real manicures before doing gel nails. Update: The nail shop contacted me about my recent visit and provided a thoughtful resolution.

2025-06-30I cannot say enough amazing things about Ryella! Sheโs done my nails the last three times, and each time has been absolute perfection. Her attention to detail, creativity, and consistency are unmatched. Whether itโs a simple design or something more intricate, she nails it (literally) every time. I wonโt go to anyone else. She is the only one I trust with my nails now. If youโre looking for flawless work and someone who truly cares about what they do, sheโs the one!

2025-10-16Seems like they do okay on manicures, but i sadly got a pedicure and probably wouldnโt go back. The nail tech smudged my toes on the flimsy flip flops (i told her i brought my own plastic birkenstocks and would be comfortable wearing those since itโs easiest, but she ignored me) and fixed it by just painting over it ๐ญ. It looks.. okayโฆ but i donโt really understand paying $40 for smudgey toes and not shiny ones. I feel like this was not the solution to a problem that could have been prevented in the first placeโฆ sorry for the toes jumpscare!
