I was looking for a clean, professional nail salon for a pedicure, and Beyond salon is just that. After reading many reviews of various nail salons in this area, Beyond seemed to be the best option for what I was looking for. Beyond Salon and nails is a full service salon, you can get your nails done, hair, a facial, waxing etc. My appointment was for 5:30 on a Friday, and it was PACKED. The interior is beautiful, much more upscale than your average nail salon. Their polish choices was about 3 displays large, I love a large selection. The fish tank was beautiful and relaxing to watch while you wait. The center of the nail salon portion was a circular nail bar, something I had never seen before. This caters to a gel manicure, that has drying lamps/fans below for your feet. GENIUS. My pedicure was with Ella. The pedicure chairs were lush and the water basins were lined with plastic, just as the reviews stated! That is so major for a salon, a lot of the times I often wondered just how clean these foot baths were after usage. The tools were open from a fresh package, also major, as I know a few people who have developed fungus from other various nail salons. A+ for cleanliness.The leg massage, scrub, etc were really average, maybe slightly less. I even told her she could beat my legs up and it felt as if she was just gently touching me. I was pleasantly surprised when she brought out the hot stones, even though that was like a 10 second portion of the leg massage. Overall the pedicure came out really well, super straight toenails (pet peeve of mine when they're crooked). She brought me to dry and gave me about a 30 second neck and shoulder massage. That was a nice touch. Overall, for $27 the pedicure was worth it in terms of cleanliness and the overall final outcome. The only thing that is holding back from the 4/5 stars is the lackluster leg massage, even after specifying she could use more pressure. That's the best part of the pedicure, in my opinion. So hopefully next time she uses more force. Also, I had an extremely rude woman two chairs over from me on her phone my entire time. It's such a relaxing environment, and to have that ruined by someone who completely disregards others personal time is disappointing. My advice to salon owners is to enforce a strict no phone call policy during treatments. That being said it is super hard to find a salon as clean as this, so for that alone I'll compromise the subpar leg massage and probably make this my standard spot for pedicures. Read Less
