"Vanessa is the best! She always strives for excellence and is so talented. Plus I’ve never had my nails last so long!"

"Vanessa always does a beautiful job with my nails, and her art is stunning. I get compliments on my nails from day one to the day of my next appointment a month later! I’m a die hard fan."

"Vanessa is an amazing artist and I always leave smiling. She is professional and the compliments I receive are endless."

"Vanessa is an amazing nail artist. Whatever you need, whether it is stamping or custom design she can do it. Her space is also really amazing, good tunes and vibes in the studio. I've been coming to see her for months now and she always delivers better than expected. Her work is very high quality, my gels and manicures last for weeks even with the tough abuse I put my fingers and hands through daily."

"I have been seeing Vanessa for ten months, and as long as she'll have me I'll never see anyone else. Six months ago, when I moved from Oakland to SF, I still didn't stop traveling to OAK to see her. Everything I've asked her for, from "classy funeral" to "goth" to "lisa frank" to "david bowie" she's delivered. I'm hard on my nails too. I wash dishes, I type *a lot*, I take (at least) daily baths in shea butter, I travel and I never wear gloves, but none the less, my nails stay looking dope. The couple of times I've had problems, Vanessa coached me through an at home repair and worked on ways she could improve for next time given my unique lifestyle. This last part might sound trite, but I'm really grateful that I started seeing Vanessa. When I look down at my nails and the beautiful custom artwork on them, I feel joy and I need that in my life."
