This is the worst nail place I have ever been to. Don’t make the same mistake I did! My nails looked absolutely horrible, and my friends and family thought so too. The technician cut my fingers open with the file several times and it was very painful to sit through for an hour. When I asked for my money back, they refused and offered to fix it instead. Seeing how they did such a horrible job to begin with, I did not want them touching my nails, so I kept insisting on getting my money back. The owner finally agreed to refund me ONLY IF HE COULD CUT MY NAILS OFF with clippers (not fully remove them). Long story short, I got my money back after an hour of the owner yelling at me and asking me why I didn’t like my nails 100 times when it was clearly a botched job. Read Less

Nails had bubbles in them, one of my pinky nails has a lump on the side from the powder and she left one thumb longer than the other. Paid $35, but honestly it wasn't even worth it!

I was visiting my daughter who had been to this salon a couple times. First, every design my daughter asked about was just flat out refused with a flat no. Mind you, the requests were nothing radical. One was even a design the have listed on their price board, "marble tip". When I inquired the lady acted like she didn't understand what I was saying. The kicker of the whole visit came next. A lady came in asking if she could use the restroom. Her son was meeting the shuttle to depart for the Marines but the recruiting office was closed. They first acted like they didn't understand what she was saying, then topped it off with telling her to walk across the parking lot and go to the Marshall's. I was stunned! As a military mom with 2 children who have served I was embarrassed. I understand that she wasn't a customer, but it was so out of line. This salon will not get any repeat business from me or my daughter. To that Marine and his mom, thank you for your service and sacrifice for this country!! I will carry you both in my prayers. Be safe and again, Thank you!!!!! Read Less

I viewed my bank balance on line (it was a debit card) and clearly showed him I had plenty of cash. his receipts read communication error/So I Called Wells Fargo and verified and gave him the phone as well.

Which is exactly what happened. I told the lady I like my nails long and square.

Don't waste your time or your money. There are far betters place than this one to get your nails done. I decided to try this place since it was right by the Sam's Club big mistake. They first hassled me about how long it to me to choose my color but to be honest the color selection is not great. 85% or more of their polishes are thick, chunky, and old. When I finally found something for my manicure my service was less than steller. The tech wanted to skip the base coat and just go straight to the color and I had to argue with her about it. Then she stopped mid polish to start an acrylic full set on another client while I waited for 15 mins with only 1 hand painted.Went to pay (which I should have just left) and they hassled me about paying with a credit card and not having cash.
