Lee does amazing design work! Brought her another photo and she recreated the beautiful look! I always love my nails and get many compliments on them. I keep coming back because she does such beautiful art/designs. I keep going back for a combo of jelly polish with a layer of cat eye under Lee suggested that adds an amazing dimension.

Kimmy is the most talented and artistic nail tech I’ve ever had. Before coming to her I was always leaving nail salons feeling unheard and disappointed. She really listens to what I want, explains to me how things work and what is realistic and is so talented at the work she does! I leave my apts content and beaming each time!

Lee is the best ever. I've worn acrylic nails for over 20 years so I've worked with many. The nails look natural and they never break. If there is an issue, she knows how to fix it, she is creative and has good nail advice for indecisive me. She is smart, experienced and also speaks fluent English, which is very helpful.
