Hannah and Alice are amazing. I was so impressed after the first visit that I decided to return. During this visit, I received a gel pedicure by Alice and gel nail tip extensions by Hannah. The gel nail tip extensions were the best Ive received thus far from any nail shop. My pedicure was immaculate, and Alice filed my toenails evenly. The total was a bit pricey but worth it. It has been a week since my visit, and my nails are entirely intact. The nail shop is also COVID-19 health compliant— individually packaged tools for each client. Disinfected stations with sneeze guards are at the manicure station and practiced social distancing.

Online it says they close at 7:30pm but someone came in at 645pm and was told they close at 7pmThe colors on the nail samples do look slightly different than when they are on.Those are the only negatives.Everything else is a plus! Fast and friendly service, I went in with a friend and during her manicure the girl kept asking if everything was good. The girl that helped me ended up choosing the color for me and I loved it!They accept credit cards and tips can also be paid on the card.Would come back!

I recieved a manicure and it was excellent. The salon was impeccably clean and the owner was super friendly. The quality of this salon far exceeds others in terms of cleanliness, ambiance and product quality. This is a hidden gem!

The staff is so friendly every time I come here and they do a great job. Prices are great, location is clean and they have implanted changes due to COVID-19.

Great place! It’s clean, cozy, and welcoming. Doesn’t feel like a nail spa mill. Consistently good service and everyone is very friendly and welcoming. I’ve been going to shades for almost a year now and will stay with this place.

Love the fact it does not smell like harsh chemicals. I tend not to get not nails done for the simple fact I suffer from migraines after a trip to the nail salon. Their way for applying acrylic nails feel much safer and also use LED instead of UV lights so you can avoid all that unnecessary tanning on only your hands also unnecessary UV. I love my black claws with the diamond crown on my ring fingers, came out beautiful. Will come back soon

I’ve been in there twice now and I think this is the place for me. The second time I got a pedicure too. Everyone is very attentive, my nails look great. It’s a tad bit pricier, but you get what you pay for, which is people that speak English, they are quick but do not rush, better nail polish. The owner is out on the floor doing nails and introduces herself as well as the girls that are doing your nails. You’re given tea, some nice essential oil’s defusing around you. It’s got a very different feel than your average nail place. It’s around the corner from my house which is nice for walking.

You must come here, I had a gel Mani and sugar scrub pedi. The staff is lovely, conscientious and really took their time to do a nice job. Ive always disliked being in super crowded salons where all services are rushed without attention to detail. I truly felt like a valued customer. Definitely will be my go to nail spa.

I called and made a same day appointment. I arrived on time and the employees all seems to be doing some sort of “not-it” thing (in a foreign language). I was so irritated and offended. Stayed because I hoped it was just a fluke.There were no customers in the salon, there were 4 employees. I requested that the manicurist keep most of my length- my natural nails were about 1/4-1/2” long and shape my nails. The person who preformed my manicure trimmed and trimmed and trimmed and filed and filed so short!!!! The shape was good and there was no way to get the length back so I didn’t stop the manicure. I now wish I had stopped the service and left. The water to soak was tepid and unpleasant, then she filed More! My hands were roughly massaged. Polish was applied too thickly and I have bubbles now just a few hours later. I am so disappointed. More customers arrived while I was there and the staff seemed to be more interested in assisting them.

I have gotten my nails done at Shades about 4 times now and I had a great experience every time. I really love the way they do my nails and each step of the way they make sure that it’s what I want in terms of design and color. My favorite technique so far has been full cover nails that have been applied with gel instead of nail glue. The look of it looks so much like my natural nails and it’s a lot lighter and thinner than gel extensions. I love going to Shades Nails and will continue going and recommending it to all my friends!

This is a new salon with a great atmosphere and an even greater owner. They are super friendly and every time Ive been Ive felt very welcome. The place is super cute and cozy and the owner Sookie does her best to make sure youre well taken care of. Jane does an amazing job when polishing and providing customer service. She is super meticulous and patient and super friendly! Thank you ladies. I will be back every other weekend :)

I love the place. Mina did my nails and shes amazing. She listened to my concerns of gel mani chipping right next day when I got done at different salon. She tried different technique to see if this time it lasts longer. Ill return back to this salon again.

My nails were done ok, a lot of air bubbles were on my nails, sides werent filed down right, and they were crooked. I also noticed she doesnt clean her tools, like the nail filer was horribly white, and used up.

Absolutely Love Sookie and the girls at Shades! My mother-in-law and I, have been extremely happy and excited with our experiences. The products are quality and long last! We do gel mani/pedi’s, and we always have a bunch of beautiful colors to choose from. Jane and Mina are great and treat us like princesses, and Sookie is the beyond wonderful. Everything is clean, the salon is gorgeous, and they are very accommodating! We will keep going there! So happy that we found shades :)
