    First timer! they were super busy when we walked in without an appointment. The owner greeted us immediately and asked if we could comeback in 35min. We were in no hurry so we went and grabbed a coffee, came back and she got us set up immediately! I got a pedicure while my niece got gelx manicure! Both turns out great! Nice place, comfortable chairs, had Harry Potter playing in background. The owner was so nice and grateful that we came back, too. She thanked us profusely. We will totally be going back!

    absolutely love this place! Ellie does my gel-x and does amazing each time! I typically get my toes done also with anyone available because they all do such a careful and thorough job of prepping and painting my toes! Such a warm welcoming place that is always thoughtful of what I want! Highly Recommend!

    Great little salon. I walked in and was seen right away. The tech Monique was obviously new and was Spanish speaking but she was also friendly
    sweet, kind and did a great job. She removed my old nails and gave me a fresh GelX set. Would definitely come back.
