I had such a great experience at Elite Nails! I went with my grandma and we both agreed on just how clean, bright and welcoming it was. The staff were incredibly friendly and you ca really tell how much they care about their customers and take pride in their work- the atmosphere is calm and relaxing- perfect for a bit of self care time! From start to finish the service was great and they make sure to naw everything perfect and the attention to detail was really shown in the final result. Kim was my technician and she did a wonderful job! She was gentle on my cuticles- which is usually quite sensitive for me but with her I barely felt anything- she was so gentle and professional. Overall I was left really happy with my experience and will definitely be coming back to Elite Nails for my next visit!

Elite Nails is my favorite place to get my nails done! I've been going there for as long as I can remember and every time I go, I always leave with a smile on my face. My usual treatment is a gel manicure and pedicure by Stacy - who is the best nail technician I have ever had. Every time she does my nails I always am very pleased, with not only the way they look, but the whole experience at Elite Nails. Stacy's warm and friendly attitude always leaves me feeling good - I look forward to every visit .The environment is so welcoming and I feel like part of the Elite Nails family. Definitely would recommend for the next time you're in town or nails need to be done.๐Ÿ˜Š

My sister made an appointment for both of us. We arrived without any problems, but the woman didn't speak to me at all during the entire process. I noticed a hair on one of my nails and pointed it out to her, but she just kept saying "later, later." When she was almost finished, I mentioned it again, and she got annoyed, saying there was nothing there, even though it was clearly visible. In her anger, she then completely removed the nail. Obviously, I was going to pay her if she did a good job. In the end, the nails didn't look good; they looked cloudy, nothing like the work my sister received . And on top of that, she hurt one of my fingers. She charged me $113 for poorly done nails! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑby the way her name is Kim

Iโ€™ve gone three times in a row to get gel manicures and pedicures. Really great price and attention to detail. Lily is amazing and my nails last 3-4ish weeks. Everyone is always nice and professional. Will definitely stick with Elite nails going forward!
