My first time visiting this salon based on the reviews. I got UV Gel pink cat eye style nails & I couldn’t be happier with the end results. My nail tech paid attention to detail which is super important to me. I never got the name of the woman who did my nails but she was kind & did an amazing job & needless to say I’ll be returning!

Oh my gosh, best pedicure experience I've had in a longgggg time. Everything was clean and sterile. The deluxe Pedicure with gel polish came to 70 before tip and was well worth it. They were able to get 3 of us done at the same time, only making the appointment the day before. Complimentary drink(s) including mimosas!
