2022-07-12they did an absolutely amazing job! will definitely be coming back. they were super friendly! the lady was really funny as well. she kept us entertained while doing our nails! absolutely loved it. the prices are also really good. it took about an hour, he paid a lot of detail to my nails. i would definitely recommend this place as to anyone who’s nervous about getting their nails done. i was very nervous at first due to the last place i went, they hurt me and made my fingers bleed. they made me feel welcomed here.

2024-02-26They do a wonderful job on my nails. But the language difference makes it very hard to communicate with each other. And they're a little pricey, but the work is excellent! Would recommend
