I would not recommend this salon at all. My sister in law and I stopped in her her birthday around 1:45 for two pedicures and be stated “he couldn’t do it” and then when we asked about a later time he said “sure” so we asked about 3:00 and he agreed that would be fine, but we changed it to 3:30 to allow more time. We signed in with our appointment time and said we would be back. We arrive at about 3:25 and stood waiting for them to tell us to take a seat at two chairs (that had water sitting in them for over 10 minutes) at about 3:40. A woman sat to do my sister in laws pedicure and only after someone yelled at a lady who had finished a pedicure 10-15min ago did she walk over to do mine, at this point it was 4:15 and my sister in laws was basically done, I said I no longer wanted one. They gave me a rather lack luster apology and didn’t offer to take any money of my sister in laws pedicure. I absolute would not recommend this nail salon to anyone, nor would I ever return!

I scheduled an appointment for an acrylic set at 11:00 AM I got there at 10:50 and they didn’t get started on my nails until 1 o’clock I went there with my mom and she got a pedicure by the time they got started on mine she was already done and waiting for 30 minutes unacceptable! even though I scheduled my appointment there about four walk-ins that bought theirs done before I got mine done. online the prices that one acrylic set is $28 when I got there I was shocked to find out they charged me 35. There were Multiple people working on my nails at once with the expectation that I was going to tip all of them. The man who did my Tips was obviously not trained because he chose wrong sizes and made my nail tips too big or too small the man who did the actual acrylic was very overbearing and asked me repeatedly if I wanted gel which I did not!Also the man who did my acrylic Was very hard with the file he would file to the point where my fingers were almost bleeding it was very uncomfortable I am not happy if I could give this place a negative stars I would

The male tech that did my nails did not say anything to me. I asked him to keep the shape and length that I came in with and he used a file and made them as square as possible and as short as possible. They look nice, but I'm not happy with the overall experience.

I have gone to this nail salon for years! I have always been so impressed with their gel French tip! I have never been disappointed, except for the last time I went. Was harassed the entire time I had my pedicure, and I was asked if I wanted a cheeseburger or a piece of pizza instead of a flower drawn on my nail. I was highly offended and will no longer be going back. I would recommend getting a woman technician, the men are very rude!

Went here for the first time a couple weeks ago. Made an appt, waited about 25 min after being on time for my appt, got my gel dip nails done and he did an amazing job. So decided to go back. Made an appt, arrived on time, waited about 30 minutes. I should've left, but figured I'm already here I'll just get it done. They said would only be about a half hour once we get started. The guy starts doing my nails, slowly... slowly.... took an hour and a half to get my gel dip nails done. He messed up a little on one of my nails and wanted to re do it but I had already been there for an hour and a half and told him don't worry about it it's not that noticeable I have to be somewhere in a half hour. After that, talking in their native language all staring at me. So pretty obvious talking about me. My nails did look good though, so I paid and left. Then got home, took a shower, and three of my nails have already chipped and some peeled off. Gel dip is supposed to harden and last 3 weeks. Won't ever go back. Waste of money!

My wife has been here several times. There are some nice technicians there, but the owner is a bit overbearing. He is always there, always pushes more services, and is rough even when asked to be more gentle. They have a wide selection of polishes, and the pedicures seem to last a while. They also do shellac/gels. If you go here, make sure to ask for someone other than the owner.

Don't waste your time, hack job and poor service. I watch them leave their customers waiting for response while they speak to each other in their native language and don't resolve customers questions for long periods of time. Had them do my nails, hack job, every time I go home and reshape them because they are so far from uniform. You Get what you pay for I guess. My last appointment the acrylic was so thin I busted a nail the first day and they couldn't squeeze me in to fix it. Also their polish is so old and diluted it looked streaky and bubbly. All around a major disappointment. Go down the street to daisy's nails, wayyyy better first time experience. I will be going there from now on.

Great service for a spa pedicure. Everything was clean and my feet were handled gently and respectfully. When I arrived for walk in service was told to come back in an hour as they were so busy, it was worth the wait. Will definitely go back. Be sure to bring cash for tips as they don't take credit cards for tips.
