I love this place! I’ve been coming here for years, and the quality is always consistent. Kelly is my go-to, and she’s the best, but I’ve had to see other nail techs a few times when I was in a pinch, and they all did an amazing job too.
The prices are always fair and consistent, which I really appreciate. Everyone is friendly, honest, and they actually remember their regular clients, which makes it feel so welcoming. It’s one of those places where you know you’re going to leave happy no matter who you book with. Definitely recommend!

Reviews
Absolutely the best nail tech ever! Lam is a true artist every set he does is flawless. He takes his time to make sure every detail is perfect, from the shape to the design, and my nails always last for weeks without lifting or chipping. He’s also so kind and welcoming, which makes every appointment feel relaxing and fun.
Whether I want something simple and classy or bold and creative, Lam always brings my vision to life (and usually makes it even better than I imagined!). I constantly get compliments on my nails thanks to his amazing work. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about quality and customer satisfaction, this is the place to go!
Lam is incredible! I’ve been seeing him for almost 4 years. He knows color, shape, and cuts my cuticles perfectly. He’s the best and I’ll follow him anywhere if ever he would leave!!
