Customer Review Summary

Reviewers are split, and the most common complaint is rushed work that leaves nails crooked or uneven, including acrylics described as thick and poorly filed. Several describe rough handling, from a pedicure that manhandled the feet to glued nails ripped off after a client said one was crooked. One reviewer reports a toenail bleeding after it was clipped close to the quick, and another describes chemical fumes so strong they burned the lungs. Others describe an overcrowded, sweatshop feel, dismissed questions about sterilization, and owners who let a worker yell at a client. Praise centers on pedicures: massages, cleaned-up cuticles, perfect french tips, hand-painted acrylics, and a gentle, detail-oriented tech in a clean, calming space. One reviewer calls the service very quick but wished the cuticles had been cleaned before the acrylic. Another had to ask for fills and then requested a different technician to redo the french tip.

    “I’m sure some people that work here are really good but I’m visiting from San Diego and didn’t know anybody. I found the place to be highly toxic and three different people touched my feet.. All of my nails are crooked not properly filed looks like someone trim them and never shaped them. I’m a cosmetologist and have done nails before as well as hair for over 40 years. I pride myself on customer service as I have managed many different salons and just feel like this place is all about shoving people in and out and making as much money as possible and leaving the passion in the break room because it definitely wasn’t used on the floor. The girl next to me who had her nails done, were a nice shape and had a lot of bling with gems and what not but the nails were so thick I could not believe it. Acrylic nails should not look like that they should try to look as natural as possible, definitely not like somebody took a break and laid it on The nail…. I picked sparkling red # 173 I think and I told them to put a very dark color underneath the red so it would look dark/ deep, but she didn’t listen or didn’t understand what I was saying so just ignored request . So basically my toes look like Christmas time, but I don’t care so much about the color as I do about the quality of the work. one of my nails bled after the first girl trimmed it with toenail clippers so close to my quick that I had to pull foot back. Anyway, I won’t go there again. I felt like my lungs were being burnt by the chemical that was so strong in the salon. It was ridiculous so ventilation is an issue there and definitely don’t have much pride in their work.. when checking out they notified that it’s cash only I may have missed the sign as I was walking in, but I didn’t see one as I was walking out thank God I had cash on me. If not, I’m not sure how that would’ve been handled.”

    “I had a disappointing experience with the owner. I came in regarding a broken nail I had got them done the week prior, and he repeatedly asked who had done them and which chair I was sitting at. I told him I wasn't sure of the employee's …”

    “Worst place to get my nails done! Worker ripped my glued nails off my fingers because I said one was crooked. The owners didn’t care they let her speak disrespectfully because I was talking to owner and she began to yell at me in the salon in front of everyone. WILL NEVER GO BACK!!!!!”

    “I visited this salon on May 9th and had a very disappointing experience. The shop is overcrowded and feels like a 'sweatshop'—they prioritize speed over safety and professional care. When I asked about their sterilization protocols for the tools, my concerns were dismissed. The technician was extremely unfriendly, abrupt, and manhandled my feet during the pedicure, causing actual discomfort. The management at the front was just as cold, directing customers like cattle. I will not be returning and do not recommend this place if you value professional care and a relaxing experience.”
