For my salon visit, I used Yelp's handy option to "Schedule an appointment.." A sweet lady called me back the very same day. Good to know if you need same-day services. I needed to schedule my appointment for a week later. The lady I spoke to had a solid knowledge about the services. Since I wanted something healthier and different than my usual acrylics, I appreciated that. (It's good to completely change things up a bit; I don't like to be stale.)FAST FORWARD A WEEK LATER:I walked into this beautifully designed salon that is decorated with opulent furnishings of luxury. From the pristinely clean environment, down to the little details of posh wallpaper on the walls, the exotic freshwater fish tank, crystal chandeliers, automatic faucets, and other beautiful details, this is the creme' de la creme'. No expense was spared. It is a quiet salon, designed for the patron's comfort in mind. This is the salon you want to be at.Immediately I was greeted with a smile and a hello from the owner, then was placed with my girl Lacey. Lacey is such a sweet person, laid back, professional and knowledgeable. She is my New Jersey girl ;).Since I was having acrylics removed, my nails were immediately wrapped in foils to soak off. Lacey then led me to the private chairs and worked on my pedicure. Each patron's chair is equipped with an iPad. (There is no luxury spared at Paris Nails Studio.) The salon provides each of their patrons with a sealed bag of tools. They take cleanliness very seriously here. I have to say my pedicure was the best one I've ever had anywhere. My toes never felt better.Next, we got the waxing out of the way. Lacey knows how to do brows beautifully, is thorough and as gentle as can be. I decided on the Young Nails brand of "Slick Pour" powder nails. "Young Nails" are a brand-name, exactly like "SNS" nails. I highly recommend them, as they are the most natural choice for healthier nails. These nails are light on your fingers, strong, and last 3-4 weeks, depending. PRO TIP: If you wear gloves to do dishes and clean house, your nails will stay fresh and new for longer.Basically, Slick Pour is a powder ($35) that's literally poured 2-4 times onto your natural nail, which creates thin but strong nails, kind of glass-like in appearance. Then a special shiny topcoat is applied, which dries the nails quickly. The process is long because it is so precise. It's so worth it!I can't say enough good things about all the people I interacted with on my visit. There is a casual, friendly but professional elegance about this salon that can't be beat. *****FIVE FABULOUS STARS*****35/100 Read Less
