    By far the best manicure experience I've ever had. I'm not the most knowledgeable about nail services or expect great nail design. So I appreciate the recommendations and suggestions. The picture was taken two days later. Soft pink is one of my personal favorite colors so I loved the vibe of the salon space. Nick takes great pride in his work. He also told me that he only does appointments and would appreciate getting a call at least a day in advance.

    So this is my second time going in for a full set (got a pedicure the first time) and I do not regret it one bit!!!! The nails are beautiful, and I'm writing this one week in. He offers fresh drinks, has a TV if interested, and he's such a sweetheart!! Don't believe the fake reviews - just weird people who are bored with themselves LOL. Absolutely love it here!!!
