    I ended up at this nail salon after complimenting someone on her beautiful nails, and she gave me a glowing recommendation to come here. I came in and they got me into the chair very quickly, even with a busy schedule, and they did my mani-pedi at the same time!

    They did such a beautiful job and paid attention to every detail, redoing things here and there to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. I also had a wax done by Lily, and she was SO patient and kind—I barely felt a thing! She made sure every hair was removed and even triple-checked her work.

    Overall, it was such a great and relaxing experience. You can really tell that quality matters...read full review

    first time nail salon goer, went with a friend,

    good mani pedi, bell, phan were my nail techs today.
    really appreciate that my nail tech bell could speak and understand engilsh, important for me to be able to converse

    put up with an onslaught of questions as a first timer, decided to splurge and get gel for both mani pedi.

    bring cash for cash rate and dodge the 3% merchant fee for card, forgot my cash and paid the card price
