Customer Review Summary
Coffin shaped nails and gel manicures draw the most praise, with several reviewers naming specific technicians who shaped and finished their acrylics and shellac sets to their liking. Close behind, one gel manicure is described as lasting three weeks with only a single chip beforehand, and a full acrylic set with shellac is called reasonable. Repeat visitors, some coming for years, describe the staff and owner as friendly and welcoming, and several say they've settled on this as their regular salon after trying others. One dissenting review pushes back hard, describing being told repeatedly what couldn't be done, not being consulted on shape, and ending up with visible flaws and uneven filing. Reviewers also mention dipping powder, chrome, ombre, and eyelash extensions among services tried, with one customer noting a delayed appointment was honestly explained by staff ahead of time.

“I have been with La Via since July , 2020 doing dipping every month. I like the friendly owner. Now I have started with a new person Vickie. She is very nice takes the time to do. If she has other customers though I have the appointment scheduled she will let me know what was the reason it’s delayed. When people are honest the relationship builds. Thank you for keeping my nails beautiful.”

I love it here❤️”
