"Terrible service and extremely poor job of doing my shellac and manicure. I just literally walked out of the nail salon and I thought to give this timely review and warn others. An older lady did my nails and was so rude to my request (which was only a shellac and manicure to my fingernails and shellac to my toe nails). I had originally asked for a white colour but then changed my mind whilst she was removing my old shellac on the fingernails.She became annoyed at this and she started saying some words to the other ladies in Vietnamese and they laughed. This same lady was also rough as she was in such a hurry (I thought to give her the benefit of the doubt that she would be very experienced and refrained from requesting for her to slow down) that when she was doing my cuticles- she cut me! I flinched and said "Ouch!", then I started to bleed. She didn't even apologise. Later on, she started to blame me for some of the fluff and bumps that got onto my new shellaced nails after I removed it from that shellac drying machine! I said that it was the fluffy towel that she has placed under my hands that's causing this but she argues that it was my jumper! Wth? Oh it gets even better..the top coat she did on my fingernails did not even fully cover the area so I asked if she could just add a bit to cover some of the patches. Once again, she does a rushed job, places my hands in the machine to get them dry, only applies cuticle oils to my right hand only until I told her she forgot to do the other side. AND she left me to grab their moisturising cream for my feet. This individual projected her extremely miserable personality onto me. She barely said a word the entire time! I've never been to this nail salon before and I only live down the road. I will never come back to this salon again and nor recommend anyone to go there."

"Great salon and highly recommend Lilly! I rarely get any lifting or breaking and can go 4 weeks before getting refills. Fantastic salon."

"I went there yesterday for the first time ever and being honest the workers were so kind, sweet and nice. The lady that was doing my nails was not rough one bit and she cleaned my nails and toes (cuticles) to perfection. I got a manicure and tips with a blue design on it and it was so so STUNNINGGGGG. Definitely recommend coming here. It’s so much better than all of the places I’ve gone too. GOING TO BE GOING WHENEVER MY NAILS ARE GROWN OUT FOR SURE."

"If you have strong nails this place is excellent as their application of gel is brilliant. They do a really good job, and it's probably the best gel application I've ever had. If you have weak nails however, I would suggest going elsewhere. I had 4 nails break after my first visit, and I then went back for gel removal and it was pretty rough. There were a few bits of paint left, and they didn't even buff the nail bed to make it look half ok. Pic below of how they let me walk out of salon. I've been here a few times and as I said, their painting is amazing, it's just no good for people with weak nails that need a little bit more care."
