    This place is great! I’ve been looking for a good gel manicure in Oakland for awhile now… this was the best by far. My nails look gorgeous. They did really good work with the cuticles, which is so important to me. They also didn’t mind that I had my little girl with me and were very kind and welcoming to her.
    Added bonus is that parking is easy and free on the street.

    The pedicure tech was amazing. The manicure tech was great and very thorough at cleaning up the nails but not so great at the actual polish application. Polish is pretty uneven and I can see my nail bed under some areas. And the thumb nail shape isn't very symmetrical.

    Atmosphere is great. Very calming and good music. They do have some random Christmas decorations still sitting around that was kind of distracting.

    I liked it enough to give it another try! Maybe I'll get the pedicure tech technician for my nails next time.
