Customer Review Summary
Gel manicures and nail art draw the most consistent praise, with several longtime customers describing their sets as always coming out "perfect" and technicians who "take my ideas and run with it." French tips also get repeated mention, generally called "very cute" though a few note minor flaws like uneven finger length or bumpy acrylic. Close behind the praise sits a recurring complaint about durability: multiple reviewers report nails chipping or breaking within days of a full set, and one describes being charged again for a repair on a nail that broke shortly after service. Dip powder drew specific criticism from one reviewer who said cuticles weren't pushed back and nails weren't trimmed properly. One reviewer also reports unsanitary-looking tools and an aggressive cuticle cut that broke skin. Another describes a special-occasion visit where a request for short square French tips wasn't followed as asked.

“I got my nails done here three days ago, not even a WEEK ago!!!!! and they’re already chipping, which is really disappointing. I also noticed that the tools and work area didn’t look very sanitary and everything looks reused. On top of that, the nail tech cut my cuticles too aggressively and even cut my skin which made the experience very uncomfortable. I expected better quality and safer service. The prices are very reasonable but you get what you pay for!!”
