I drove from Fond du Lac on the recommendation of a friend. I wanted somewhere clean, sterile, with natural and organic options and access to the newest and healthiest nail trends. I follow the latest nail trends and brands on social media, and am a amateur nail artist who usually does her own nails.The good: they had all that I wanted! Liners in the pedicure bowls, sealed and sterilized tools, SNS, a ton of color options from Zoya, and even the holographic powder that I wanted to try. Best part of all, it was an independent nail brand I recognized and trusted, not just a generic tub of who knows what. They were professional and kind, and I did not feel like I was getting shuffled around and out the door ASAP. The "meh": Because I take good care of my own nails, I didn't need a manicure and had come in with my nails naked and ready to go. I just needed an polish application and my nails to be buffed a little. I explained that on the phone and before my manicure. I was still charged full price, and was not given a discount for not having to remove polish, soak, clip, cut cuticles, shape, etc. The bad: Holy expensive! They give no combination discounts for getting a manicure and pedicure and will charge you for every extra you get. We got two basic pedicures, one acrylic tip application, two SNS manicures, and then upcharged $10 for my holo powder, and $5 to do a "coffin shape" on my daughter's acrylic nails. I thought the extra charge for that was silly. Total: $170! That's $50 more than I have ever spent anywhere else for the two of us to get mani/pedis. Overall, I will be back based on cleanliness and friendliness and skill (seriously everyone was SO NICE), but will avoid anything but the basics to keep it affordable. You get what you pay for, and in this case it's the truth, for the cost, it was worth every penny in the end. Read Less
