"Love this local nail salon! If you’re looking for dip, gel-x apres, or hard gel extensions - go to Wendy. She is AWESOME! So talented and all-around the sweetest person ever. I’ll always trust her with my nails."

"Highly recommend! I've gotten a dip manicure here twice: once from Nadiya and once from Wendy. They were both professional and my nails looked great each time."

"Really glad I gave this place another try. I came 6 months ago and found the people there so poorly mannered that it left a bad taste in my mouth; but I wanted to try again because few people do SNS. I went to Nancy, she’s so sweet and takes her time making your nails perfect. The younger women who work there should really take after her class, and overall kindness. Will be going back just for her"

"I’ve been looking for a new nail salon ever since the owner of my old salon retired. I’m a loyalist and went to Love Nails for 20 years! My experience and mail + file is as awesome. My technician was very thorough and did a great job. The salon is clean and cute and very conveniently located."

"I highly recommend File + Style!! I have been going there since Feb of 2021 so while not that long I will say its my favorite salon I have ever been to!! I go to school out in Hawaii and got mine done out there once and never again, I always find myself right back in the doors of this cute little place. The salon itself is very cute, clean, and the people there I have found are all very sweet! I always feel very welcome when I go inside, I am always greeted with a hello and they are all very accommodating as well. I am 19 but I love my nails to be the centerpiece for me, I am constantly complimented on my nails and people always ask where I got them done. If you are looking for designs that are really fancy and could take a bit I highly suggest LoAnn, I have requested her every time and oh my god she never disappoints. I plan on going here as long as I can physically can. Price wise I would say it may be on the expensive side to some depending on what u may be looking for BUT please keep in mind that this is hours of hard work going into your nails and as someone who sat through a 3 hour appointment the price is so worth it. The detail and perfection in her work is impeccable, I always have checked in before hand to see if my designs would work and haven’t had any problems. If you are worried about the capability range of the artists I would simply bring in multiple designs as backups in case!! Regarding cancellations and such because I know its one of the things people have complained about, I read all the reviews and stuff before I had gone there a while back. If we have to think about this from their point of view, when we cancel last minute and they don’t have fees this is time and money they are losing. This is a small business and Covid sucked for everyone but it especially can take hits on places such as this, at the end of the day if u have a problem with it then you can always find somewhere else to go. They have day of walk-ins specifically for this kind of situation if u want to be safe but if u decide to book ahead it states MANY times that there is a cancellation fee after 24 hours so if this is a problem for you I highly recommend just calling day of and seeing if they have any openings."
