2025-11-19LR Nail Salon is truly a hidden gem โ elegant, upscale, and effortlessly classy. From the moment you walk in, youโre wrapped in a beautiful, calming ambiance that feels like a mini getaway. The hospitality alone makes you feel pampered before your service even begins. I had my pedicure with Owen and my manicure with Lili, and they were both absolutely exceptional. Owen gives the most relaxing, detail-oriented pedicure โ he truly cares about nail health and makes sure every step feels soothing. Lili is just as amazing with manicures; she listens, pays attention to what you want, and treats your nails as if they were her own. Their technique, precision, and genuine care make the whole experience feel luxurious. What I love most about LR is how much they care about the customerโs nail health. This isnโt just a service โ itโs thoughtful, attentive artistry. The staff pays attention to every detail, every preference, and every little thing that makes you feel comfortable and happy. They even end with a back massage! LR Nail Salon is classy, fun, polished, and always puts a smile on your face. I absolutely love this place and canโt imagine going anywhere else. โจ๐ ๐ซถ

2025-12-18This may be the first google review that I have ever left. But after I recently moved to the area Iโve been struggling to find a new nail salon. And OMG Iโm so glad that I came here! The facility itself is so cute and so clean. A lovely woman named Ashley gave me a full set and I was so impressed by her skills and attention to detail! I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this place for high quality nails.
