JASMINE~~is amazing!! She is incredibly detailed and thorough and her nail designs are so creative! She will mention that her English is limited, but that is not an issue because she always knows exactly what I want. She is just that skilled. I asked for a specific fairy dust glitter technique on my nails, and she got it perfect without hesitation. Above all else she is super sweet and friendly, which makes the whole experience even better. I Highly recommend her!

AJ always does a great job on my almond pink and white. Snow does the best pedicures IMO. Everyone is super friendly and sweet. Been going here 2+ years regularly and went sporadically prior to that. Update 11/15/25 still getting the same mani and pedi from the same nail techs and no complaints! Schedule an appt to get a shorter wait time.

I wanted to love it here. Many of the reviews were so positive, and I should have listened to them and scheduled with one of the recommended technicians. Instead, I took my chances as a walk-in. The first time I visited, I scheduled ahead of time for a mani/pedi with a friend. Her pedicure was almost done before mine got started, and it was already 45 minutes past my manicure appointment when I decided to leave. They tried to get me in then, but we had already been there for so long. It was fine and I wasn't upset, but I decided I'd come back another time. I came back the next day for my manicure, and visit was good. Two weeks later, my daughter and I decided to do girls' day manis and popped in around 11. Aside from 1 or 2 pedicure clients, the place was empty. They took my daughter back first, then a couple minutes later, the guy sitting by the door (AJ) took me back. My daughter was in another row, on the other side of the salon, so I asked if we could sit together. AJ just tells me, "No." Not another word. Mind you, NONE of the other stations were occupied. I've been getting my nails done for years, and every time I've brought my daughter, they always put us together, unless it's busy and not possible. A few minutes later, another lady walks out, I think she may be the owner(?), and asks if we'd like to sit together. She was very friendly. AJ was trying to hand me off to the woman already doing my daughter's nails, telling me this other guy could finish hers. Honestly, I was glad to get anybody else at that point. Instead, the owner told the lady and my daughter to move up next to us. In all fairness, she was trying to help, and she hadn't been on the floor when I had initially asked. AJ was visibly irritated and kept talking under his breath to himself. I was ready to walk out, and looking back, I probably should have. He was aggressive with my nails, burnt my nail beds and finger tips multiple times with the dremel (no apology or acknowledgment), and did zero cuticle care. I asked him to trim my nails because after two weeks of growth, they needed to be trimmed. I did want them shorter than I originally had, so I couldn't get almond shape, which I knew, and was fine with. At checkout, I noticed a $5 upcharge. When I asked him about it, he said it was because he had to trim and reshape my nails. What??? I didn't ask for them longer. Trimming and "reshaping" is standard with any fill, even though the reshaping was literally done by trimming the tip of the almond off. Never in the 20+ years that I've been getting nails done, have I been charged at a fill appointment to trim, or been treated so poorly was asking if i could sit near my young daughter in an empty salon. If you go here, I think there are good people to see. Just read the reviews and book with one of the names most recommended and stay away from AJ. He may have just had a bad day, but that is NOT the clients fault. Especially when all I did to upset him was ask him nicely if it were possible for my daughter and I to sit next to each other. I didn't argue with him. I just said, "Oh, okay." He was rude, aggressive, and took his anger out on a client. That is NEVER acceptable. Picture of purple nails were what I came in with (longer, almond shaped), and the white nails are what I left with. You can see the trim and reshaping was not excessive, and the state of my cuticles/hang nails.

Iโ€™ve been going to MK Nails for years. Easy to call and get an appointment. Always running on time! And the nails are the best! Jasmine did my holiday nails and I love how they turned out. So much attention to detail. While I was getting my nails done, my 6yo daughter got red polish with Christmas stickers and she felt like a pampered princess! Highly recommend!
