Polish Pop NailsEveryone that I’ve met so far is amazing. They have the best prices in town. And do a good job. I’m glad I looked over and saw their Salon. Definitely will be my go to spot. I asked for something quick and simple because I was in a hurry and the Tect did amazing.
Simplicity Nail StudioAbsolutely love the small shop environment and Ann gave me the best full set I have ever had!
LUX NAILS LOUNGEA huge appreciation for Mary. Mary is so sweet each time I come in she offers snacks and drinks. Her station is clean and well decorated. I have always put acrylic on and had damaged nails from other nail techs. Ever since she’s been doing my nails, they are stronger than ever even after soak off. She also does beautiful work

LUX NAILS LOUNGEMary is exceptional at nails! She always makes sure to get all the little details right & I always end up loving my nails so much! She’s been able to do every design I’ve asked for. I get more compliments on them since I’ve been seeing her than ever before. She’s also super personable! 10/10 recommend!
