I've been here a few times. If you are looking for your nails to be done, see Steven or his wife. Both are very good. However, I went in yesterday looking for an acrylic overlay since my natural nails had gotten long enough. One nail did have a missing little piece on one side. I asked the lady (not the owners wife) doing my nails if she could use a form on that nail to build it, and it could be even. She refused and did what she wanted. I had several nails not completely filled in with any acrylic. I pointed out 2 of them and asked if she could maybe fix it ( it had a VERY noticeable ridge built up on the side) and added a little acrylic to fill it in on the ridge i was asking her to fix. She then proceeded to build up the exact spot I was asking her to blend in. When I tried showing her again where I meant, she did the ok ok thing and kept building back up that same ridge. None of the nails were the same thickness either. I wanted my nails to look natural since they are my natural nails. A few looked natural, but most looked like I had acrylic nails put on. I did file off the gel polish I paid for so that I could try to file down and fix the abnormalities. They're a little more blended but missing quite a few areas of acrylic as well as the additional money I paid for the gel polish. Again, if you come here for nails, make sure to see steven or his wife.
Do any salons around here actually do real manicures anymore? This is the 3rd place I’ve been to in town when asking for a manicure and gel set that they’ve completely neglected giving me an actual manicure. They didn’t soak my nails before trimming , they never touched my cuticles, and no hand massage. I’m from Fresno and any place I’ve been to there, those are standard for a manicure.
When I wanted a new set I was pressed for a fill, I had to be firm with my choice. After they drilled down the layer of gel, they ripped of my nail by sliding another nail underneath. It hurt! I pulled my hand away and asked what she was doing and that she ripped off half...read full review
I love my experience there! I always enjoy my pedicure. The girl who does it for me is amazing... I wasn't able to get her name, but the last 3 times I've been there, it's always her, and I love it. She takes her time and doesn't rush my pedicure. My nail lady is also amazing. Does beautiful work. I am very simple when it comes to my nails, nothing fancy but love her work. Will also update her name. She has done my nails the last 2 times, but the lady from my first time is also good.
