Silver Lining Salon & SpaIt's always a 5 star experience when I come to get my nails done. Bekkah is the absolute best! Could not recommend her enough!

Black Barn BeautySammy is the owner and is always willing to listen and help you out! The salon is so calming and relaxing especially while getting a pedicure! There are massage chairs as well a tv in the private pedicure area!
Black Barn BeautySammy kills my nails every time! Without a doubt always the best experience and they’re so accommodating when i bring my 5 month old in with me!
Black Barn BeautyI have been a client of Sammys for a few months now. I am so glad that I am a client of her's because she is amazing! All the nail techs are amazing and the environment is very chill! 10/10 recommend!
Silver Lining Salon & SpaI just went to this Salon for the first time. I had a gel manicure with Hadley. What an exceptional young lady and a really nice place. My nails look great and I will definitely be back to see Hadley. They are lucky to have an employee that cares so much about her customer's happiness with her work! What a keeper...
