I'm new to the area and decided to drive the 10 minutes to this place due to its Yelp reviews. I expected that it would be packed on a Friday night at 5:30pm, but it looks as though a lot of people still haven't found this little gem!When I arrived both Christine and her husband, who's name, I'm pretty sure, is CK, were with other customers. I was greeted warmly and told that it would be a few minutes, but they'd be right with me. That was ok, it just gave me more time to pick colors, which I can never seem to make my mind up on.CK set the pedicure chair up for me and had me come sit. I was given a pillow for my lap and asked if I wanted a drink. I declined, but it appeared that they had sodas, waters, and I think I saw a box of white wine.The place is small - 4 pedi chairs, 2 mani stations, and a couple of seats for waiting. It looked like they did waxing in the back as well.I waited 10 - 15 minutes in the pedi chair before CK came over to me. Yes, that's longer than I've ever waited before, but my feet were in warm bubbly water and I was sitting in a massage chair. I'm not going to complain about that. It was way better than just sitting in the entrance.CK is a man of few words, but he was super nice and did a beautiful job on my toes. This is probably going to sound terrible, but I've never had someone work so hard to make my feet soft! Amazing! I chose the spa pedicure which took about an hour, and included a great foot wrap with warm towels and a little massage. The massages are probably one of my favorite parts of a pedicure, and this one wasn't quite enough. I may try one of the other packages to see if they spend more massage time on my next visit.After the pedi was done, I had my manicure with Christine. Like others have said, she just did it perfectly! No frills. No amazing hand and arm massage or anything, but my nails were shaped beautifully and polished to perfection. I'm usually hesitant to spend the money on a regular manicure because, even after sitting under a UV drying lamp for 20 minutes, I will still ruin my nails by the time I get home. Every. Time. Well, not here. Christine had me sit in front of a fan for about 10 minutes or so, and then sent me on my way. I'm happy to report that it's the next day, and they still look beautiful! I can't believe it! I seriously don't think that has EVER happened.To top everything off, Christine is just the sweetest lady! This is their shop. They are open 7 days a week, she is always there, and never minds even if someone walks in right before they're going to close. These are hard-working people who genuinely care about their customers. She read my name off of the credit card that I paid with, introduced herself and her husband, and told me to come back to see them - and I absolutely will! Read Less
