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.

I started coming here when I moved to the area- I enjoy getting manicures and pedicures done here! They have a really relaxing foot massage package with a whole bunch of things like hot stone massage, lotion, paraffin wax, etc. Tammy and Tuyen are amazing artists.

Very disappointing experience. The nail technician was inattentive throughout my appointment and spent most of the time looking around and watching other people instead of focusing on my nails. Unfortunately, the quality reflects that lack of attention. It has been only two days, and the gel is already lifting and…

This is my fav place to get my nails done. Tima always nails my pedicures. I’m very particular and she never minds all my needs. She always asks about my son which I think is so sweet that she remembers. She is the best!
