My friend recommended this place. I came in on Saturday at about 1pm. They got me in right away which was great. I paid for a manicure and a pedicure. I matched the gel polish to the dip powder (they do not match as closely as I thought they should but that’s not a huge issue, my toes are much darker than my fingers). It cost me $120, not counting the 20% tip I gave to her as well. Unfortunately by that night my right thumb nail broke. They’re closed on Sunday so I waited until they opened on Monday morning to come in. They said they didn’t have someone to fix it and it would be a thirty minute wait but after we agreed to wait they had the young lady who did my original set on Saturday fix my thumb. Now since I was just here a couple days ago I know how talented she is. I love this set. The color and shape are perfect. However she did not spend the same time and attention to detail this go around. My right thumb now is significantly thicker, darker, and even crooked especially compared to how symmetrical the rest of my set is. I offered to pay for the repair as I don’t believe anyone should work for free but was turned down. She made a comment while repairing my thumb that I should just do acrylics without the powder dip. That since my natural nails are short that’s why it broke. Please note I did not blame anyone for my broken nail neither did I expect free service to have it fixed. I know I’m not exactly a nail connoisseur however I’ve been getting my nails done consistently since the pandemic lifted restrictions. I’ve only had a nail break like this one time before and that was about a week after I had them done and at a different salon. This length is pretty normal for me and I’ve never had this issue. Regardless, my experience Saturday was wonderful which makes today so much more disappointing. I know she was capable of doing a much better job then what she did today and chose not too. Because of this I will be taking my business elsewhere. Included are pictures of my set and my repaired nail for a comparison. I apologize for the quality of photos as it does look worse in person.

I love coming here and so does my mother. I am a regular but I wanted to brag about my most recent experience. I had my nails done a couple days ago and something went wrong because my dip starting popping off. No worries though. I walked in and was immediately helped by Mimi who I must say is the sweetest person I’ve ever met. She talks to me almost the whole time which is comforting because I don’t love silence sometimes. She didn’t charge me to fix them even though I insisted so instead I got other services like my eyebrows and a pedicure done. I really enjoy coming here.

Great service, clean salon, Tony was amazing on my full set and made sure I loved them to, he kept making sure the shape was on point and if the length was good all the way to how thick I wanted the white tip, made me feel super secure with a nail tech! Will be returning for sure!!

Edit: came back for my Easter nails with Tony and he did not disappoint! Also got them longer this time!!

I had a poorly done manicure done here, uneven lengths, not filed straight, tips placed crooked, white flecks under the top coat, and very thick layers of polish. When I went back, the manager said she couldn’t do anything to help me.

I have had many great gel manicures here from various techs and my issue is not with the bad one i just received. My issue is when I showed it to the staff and that the polish didn’t cover the whole nails and that it was globular in some areas, she tried to insist that it was satisfactory and that’s just the way a gel polish look. Very nice people but don’t like that they try to pass this as professional work. Unfortunately because of that I won’t be coming back.
