My mom has been coming here for years and I was so happy to finally try it out. There are 3 people who are amazing that we always go to, so Im not sure how the other manicurists are. The inside is pretty basic looking and even when we have an appointment we have had to wait 20 min-1 hr to be seen. This is the main reason for the 4 stars. I have loved my nails every time Ive been here. My nail art is usually done perfectly and I leave feeling so happy!

Very very disappointed!I come here often and usually am happy but this time I am not.I usually get a full set and love it and pay about $60-$65 but today I got a manicure with gel polish and HATE IT.Immediately started to chip, lines are uneven, spotty, and over all hate the color.I think for $57 this is way over priced and honestly won’t be coming back any time soon.I think at MOST these should have been $45 the only “extra” thing I had was a simple collagen mask.Very upset with this today.

I came in with the memories of a great nail spot pre-Covid. I made an appointment for two in advance. They sat my husband and I in the very back 2 chairs with tattered, falling apart headrests. They timed the pedicures, my husband’s was full massage for the entire time. I ordered the gel pedicure so it costed a bit more. The manicurist set the timer and went back to painting my nails and putting them under the gel light while the massage timer was going. Then she went to gather her items and hot rocks and then started massaging. I maybe got about a min of massage. That was over and they tried to shoo us out. I reminded her of the fill needed still. So they sat me at the interim manager’s desk. She was so busy on her phone texting and directing traffic that she didn’t notice the poor job done with her lining of color on the tips of my nails. She also rushed me to wash and cash out. When I washed I checked my nails, they were bad bad. Paint in the pink parts, (colored French tips) and really didn’t match the nail bed. This makes them look stubby and fat. Really not pleased with the $128 I just spent. They never offered a water or any of the service they used to. Really sad.

Jen is the worst person to deal with! My girlfriend recently got her nails done there and they did a horrible job! When she asked they be fixed Jen said they looked fine and told her she needed to pay for a full set of she wanted them fixed. Jen argued with her and had the worst attitude. DO NOT GO TO THIS SHOP!!!I would recommend Tao Nails. Rosa is way better and provides excellent service without the attitude.

Never again will I go there. I showed the guy who was cleaning my nails a picture of a pedi I wanted to do on my nails. He said pick the colors. I assumed that meant he was able to do it. This is what I ended up with!! By far the worse place I have ever been. They jus try to rush you out they really dont put much effort on doing pedis they just want you in and out!! I really wanted that marvel look on my white nails. My nail that was painted black had a few bubbles... This place had a lot of people inside it didnt seem like they have a capacity...

I was never a fan of nail salons, (I’ve only ever been twice before them about 3 years ago) they would always file my skin to the point of bleeding and it really traumatized me. One day, I finally decided to try again and found this gem Been here only twice and they’ve changed my ways. I called ahead of time for walk-ins so thankfully they weren’t busy and was seen right away. She finished within 20minutes. I’ll only be going here for now on. I loooove my nails!

Review №11

Only one lady in the whole salon was nice (who did my nails)although my fingers were burning from the product all over me. The lady who did my toes cut me and didnt even acknowledge me when I said ow and was bleeding the entire time. I went with my friend and her daughter and they royally messed up her nails, refused to fix them the next day when we had called and asked for them to be fixed because we didnt have the time the night before. The lady who did her daughters nails seemed extremely irritated to be doing her nails and they over charged us on top of it all. Wouldnt recommend it unless youre willing to gamble getting someone good and dont mind bleeding and burning

Horrible horrible experience, it was my moms birthday and I brought her te get a pedicure and they hurt her nails trying to clean around them, they were too rough and at the end of everything they gave us a service we did not ask for and even color we did not ask for. I mainly went to get all my dead skin off because since I got pregnant I didnt get it treated and the lady didnt even scrub my feet. At the end they gave me two different prices and over priced me for three services we did not ask for. Extremely do not recommend!!!!!.

Not necessarily a place where you should go if you have tender fingers, the lady literally ripped my acrylic off with clippers and a nail tip. (She was nice and pleasant, but, it did hurt!) The dip powder nails did come out very, very nice, but, it hasnt been 2 weeks and my nails already cracked. I will return, I did like the end result, Ill just ask for thicker nails or more powder coats next time, and hope they last longer.

At first I was just going to take it as a loss and just go somewhere else, but the fact that my nail already snapped and it’s been all of TWO days I’m so done with that place if you want to get your nails done do not go here. I even had a picture I brought in and they still did it wrong

Review №18

Today, earlier in the morning towards afternoon, I got a gel pedicure and wanted it square shaped but the lady who did them literally just filed them not even straight, but more like slanted and the sides was not even filed. I had to come home and fix them myself. This place was good before, but I dont know what happened. They need to train their employees to put in more effort and not just get it done fast and over with. Most likely will not come here again.

I got a pedicure and acrylic, the lady who did my pedicure was super nice and so was the guy who did my nails at first was super nice but even tho I showed him a picture and explained to him what I wanted twice he messed up and the lady who fixed them seemed like she was mad at me for her associate messing up, even tho it took an hour extra for them to file my bail back down and redo them I was ok with the wait but when the guy was filing my nail he cut me 3 times and was really ruff with the nail file. At the end they should have waived some type of cost like 20% off or something for them hurting me and messing up on my nails and in the end they did not even look that great. Really upset with them I am definitely not coming here again do not recommend!

Review №23

Some of the staff were friendly, I feel like they over charged me. I paid for my mom and me both to get pedicures and we both got gel and we walked out with me paying 100$ for just 2 pedicures... and its been maybe a week and the polish is beginning to chip ALREADY! so Im not sure if they actually used gel or not because Ive never had this issue before.Very clean place tho just felt over charged and not that impressed with the work on top of it. And Im not one to complain.

Review №25

These are my wedding nails and honestly I will never ever come here again. His method of taking off acrylic nails are aggressive and extremely damaging to my nail beds. He did not sand them down like you are suppose to but instead ripped them using clippers and the sharp edge of a glue on nail piece. He even said to me “most people are scared of this part” well yeah I wonder why maybe it’s because you’re ripping their nails out! He also did not give me what I want. I asked for short coffin nails instead he made them some of the longest, thickest nails I’ve ever had. I asked for an ombré with glitter tips instead he gave me pink/orange. I am getting married this week and these are my wedding nails. I’m not happy nor will I ever come anywhere near this place. The first photo is what I wanted. The second is what I got. I wanted them shorter he said he is going to make my fingers thin by having them longer as well as “the picture is long so I make it long” I picked out white dip powder but he insisted that pink was better. I said it looks orange and that the nails are crazy but he said “don’t say that my friend”. Normally I wouldn’t care but these are my wedding nails. As you can see I wanted a classy white and instead I have orange. I also got charged a $25 extra service fee which is crazy to me. I made a mistake to try this place 3 days before my wedding and I can’t take back what is done but I warn whoever is reading this to save their money and go elsewhere!

Review №28

Was clean and a lot of room, but my nail job was terrible. I had my nails dipped, it was thin, nails were crooked and see through, with the polish. Next day it had already cracked. I went there only because it was nearby after work. I actually went home and polished over it with a dark color till I go back to Luckys Nail and spa. They did a great job.

I got my nails and eyebrows waxed. My nails were fine except excepton one with weird shape. But the girl burnt my eyes because wax was too hot. Then took a strip out of my eyebrows. So I look pretty crazy and my eyes are hurting today. So be careful about getting a wax there.

Review №31

Loved the pedicure the lady gave me, hate the nails the guy did for me. The shape is terrible, nails are slanted and they’re flat. My nails look disgusting.Same day UPDATE: I went back VIP nails to get them removed or fixed. Jen fixed my nails and they now look how they should’ve the first time. The nails are cute now but shorter (since the guy did one hand shorter than the other) Jen did a good job, I recommend asking for her directly or take a gamble. After she fixed my nails she kindly brought up my original review and asked for me to update.

Review №32

In mid May I went in here on my birthday in need of a full set, and luckily it wasnt busy so I got seated right away. I told the man what I wanted and I showed him pictures. It started out ok but he was messy and as he was finishing I noticed a lot of things that were wrong... The nails werent filled to the cuticle nor were they filled all the way on the sides of my nails either. So they looked like fake store bought nails that were the incorrect size... the foil wasnt laid on smoothly so it rubbed off very fast and looked trashy. One of my finger nails was going too far to the right and it looked so bad and when I asked if he could fix it, he filed it to the left and it did nothing but make it worse. They looked grown out within like a week and a half which should not happen. I would just save your money and time when it comes to this place its not worth it. The pictures I took look good, but if you saw in person youd agree with me...

Normally I love going here to have pedicures done so I thought the would be good with the nails but I went in and had fill done and gel polish. However everything was good accept my polish. I went in 2x and still same problem which was the polish peeled off. I just ended up polish them myself. I paid $50 for nothing is how I feel which sucks because they were my go to shop but not anymore unfortunately.

I got the 62 dollar pedicure with a tropical flower design today. It was amazing. It was expensive but the lady doing my pedicure could have taken all my money with the effort she put in. I am so appreciative, thank you so so much!To top it off my nails look beautiful!! I had already gotten a similar priced pedicure earlier this month and it did not compare. She shaped my nails so nicely and they look completely different.

I came here once about a year ago and was sure i wouldn’t be back. This is a beautiful place and they clearly have spared no expense keeping it well stocked not to mention top of the line equipment. Very nice atmosphere. The girl i had my first visit was very slow so i was there for 2 1/2 hours for a nail fill and there was ZERO communication. The girl i had today was Tracy and she was great. my nails are beautiful, she was pleasant and i was only there little more than an hour. I will definitely be back. It was a little cold inside and could stand some heat this time of year. Can’t have it all. 😊

My nails were a mess but this was the worseFull set and polish I have ever had in 15 yrs.Toes and nails were $81 with gel polish and I will have to repair the damage. Very thick looking, white product and polish left all over. Very messy looking and nails/tips point upwardon half the nails and look ok on others. He blamed the look on the condition of my nails. As I said I have had great results with worse looking nails over the years. No excuse for the mess I am stuck with.

Been trying to look for a good nail place and finally found one! I went through the reviews and seen a bunch of good ones and now I know why. The inside of the salon is very pretty and clean! They have a great variety of colors and powders. Steven did my nails and they came out super beautiful!! I showed him a picture of the nails I wanted and he did them almost exactly how it looked. The color was off a little but obviously you cant always find the EXACT same color. I love staring at them! Cant wait to go back for a fill. Steven is very talented

Their set up is very fancy and classy which I enjoyed. However, when my sister was getting her nails done she asked for glow in the dark which they charged her $45 and they could not get it right and kept coming out matte when paying they charged her $50 for nails that THEY could not get right but because it was matte they charged her an extra $5 which is not much but they treated her unprofessional and the lady that did them kept giving her attitude. WHY WOULD SHE PAY AN EXTRA $5 WHEN AT FIRST SHE DID NOT ASK FOR MATTE AND THEIR ATTITUDE WAS TRASH. Never coming here again !!!

This is a place where you will get a class treatment. The staff is so very attentive and they remember ever client by name. Also the services the offer will use the latest and most popular products. The shops cleanliness is up to code. The design really set the mood of the salon. The class of customers come first is a must and you can tell they work hard at making sure that happens. If your of age your offer beverage while your getting it done. Total professionalism is what you’ll get granted and guaranteed is a must. Calm relaxed and caters for from time you walk-in til you leave.

I just went in a few minutes ago and I got a refill. It was such a horrible job. They left nail polish all over inside and outside my nail. I am so upset. They still charged me 35 even after I told Jen how bad it was. It looks like a kid them. I had always gone there. Jen does a good job, but there is other workers that don’t. Never want to go back there. They should have never charged me. Quality of nails horrible. Professionalism horrible. I posted pictures. They appear under latest pictures. They are so bad. They are the olive green and yellow ones. You will be able to tell which ones they are right away.
