"Terrible nail salon, by far the worst gel manicure experience I’ve EVER HAD. I stopped by with old press ons that were hard to remove. My nail tech lady immediately tried to yank off each press on nail with a used METRO card. She did no preparation of soaking with water or acetone until I had to tell her to and I never even washed my hands.Very unsanitary. My nails are in pain and still feeling sore from her blunt nail removal process. My nail tech was very inexperienced in my opinion and also did a poor job on the gel manicure, it is sloppy work and uneven at the sides. Will never be coming back to this establishment. She even had the nerve to ask for a cash tip at the end which I felt pressured to give although she deserved absolutely no tip. I would like a refund."

"I found this place randomly walking down the street. They caught my attention with the $37 mani pedi special. It is only applicable for regular polish, and I paid $49 for a beautifully done Gel French manicure with pink tips on natural nails. My nail technician was very attentive to detail and checked with me as she painted the french tips. If I liked how they looked. She did a very nice job."

"I was in the mood for a pedi and I was in the area on a Sunday. I had to wait a little, but the staff was nice. Place is simple but clean enough and they had a decent selection of colors. She took her time and helped me pick the right color. At the end she gave me a nice mini neck massage that was pretty good. Price was decent given the area. 27$ plus tax was $29. They were really nice. If you’re looking to get a decent pedi for a fair price I would recommend them."

"This place is great. For $37 you can get a great manicure and pedicure. You pay an extra $1 each for quick dry polish on top. It’s quick and convenient and the staff is nicer than other salons nearby. In and out in an hour"
