Lauren is the best! I have been on the hunt for a nail tech since moving to Nashua, and instantly was so grateful when I walked into Lauren’s place. Between the environment, the music, the vibes, the conversations, I eagerly look forward to my next appointments.

I’m actually obsessed with how my nails came out. She really listened to what I wanted and made it look even better than the inspo. The shaping is perfect and they feel so clean and lightweight. The whole appointment was chill and not rushed at all. You can tell she actually cares about her work. 100% going back.

I started seeing Lauren earlier this year as I recently moved to the area. I get GelX Medium length and I have to say I am over the moon impressed by the quality in her artwork. Lauren is such a kind soul and will always ask for what you’re thinking for nails. & have no fear if you are indecisive (like me) she will always create something wonderful you’ll love 💜
