2025-04-27For my first time coming to Nails Time, Wilson was an absolute gentleman of a host! We had a little chit chatting, but not too much. I got a full set with a design and the Platinum Pedicure. My appointment was less than an hour and a half, but I feel like I got "Princess Treatment"! Thanks for the best hospitality!
