Every time I have gone to Nails by Kim (Kimโ€™s) I have the best experience. By far they have given me the best acrylic nails that I have ever received. I used to salon hop but Kimโ€™s as always been amazing and stuck to my mind. Now Iโ€™m a regular. They are the alone salon that has given me a translation when my technician makes a comment to another. Kim was meticulous to what I needed especially with my occupation. T is also amazing! Not to mention they have the best โ€œregularโ€ pedicure that Iโ€™ve received. Pictured are my white tip acrylics I had done. Not uncomfortably thick either! (Sorry my hands are orange from tanner)
