      I always feel like I'm asking a lot with the ideas I have and I always make sure I have a backup idea JUST in case there is someone there who can't do what my first choice design is. I can here because the place I originally made an appointment at was not ready for me and therefore they lost my business. Modern nails fit both my husband and I immediately upon arrival and he said his pedicure was the BEST he'd ever had. My manicure gel set could honestly not have turned out any better. My nail tech Elizabeth KILLED my vision (in a good way). My ONLY gripe and why I docked a star was how expensive it all was. $135 for my nails and my husbands pedicure was more than I EVER spent and it killed me to hand over my card.

      The tech was really irritated when I said three Coates is what. I want on my gel mani... but whatever! What made me upset is no card tip and no cash app! It's 2022 who has cash really! They are out of date there!!!!

      Took my four year old daughter to get her first pedicure and we both ended up with fungus under the nail. Ripped off my entire pinky toenail and tried to paint my raw skin to cover it up. Traumatizing and disgusting.

      Basic nail salon, nothing fancy!
      Reasonable priced!
      They do a decent job and I never experienced any of the staff being rude.
      Big polish selection
      Decent looking environment!
      They do use new tools for every pedicure
      If looking for a spa experience, this is definitely not the place!
      Inside shopping center so you will find parking.
      It's always something entertaining going on so you will have a laugh or two.
      Place can get crowded quickly on weekends.
      They do have weekday specials.

      ‍ that's all!

      never in my life have I been so embarrassed to show my face in public after leaving this place. Wax was WAY too hot and left burns on my chin. If you wanna leave this place as a burn victim please go!!!

      Extremely disappointed in the service at this salon. I went to get my nails done and eyebrows waxed. Nails were fine, but my skin was burned and waxed off. Not only is it extremely painful, but it's also embarrassing to walk around with burns all over my face. I have had my eyebrows waxed plenty of times, and this has never happened. My eyebrows don't even match after waxing, and there are so many hairs left behind. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.

      I love this place! Super convenient for me since l live in the area and l always get GREAT SERVICE. I've gone to numerous people in the salon to get my nails done and I've always gotten great service. No matter who the person may be.

      Not really expensive and they have a great selection of gel colors. My fill in's are usually $30 because l always get gel and the regular fill's are $13. Pedi's are $20. Not bad at all! Just try to avoid the beginning of the month and or end.

      AWFUL. Horrible. Long wait, overwhelming smell, dirty, small, they didn't sterilize their tools, I just got home and my feet are so itchy I cannot wait to shower. Hopefully I don't have something worse than an allergic reaction. Avoid at all costs.

      UPDATE : it's an hour later and already one toe's worth of GEL POLISH has completely come off. Do not waste your money in this hellish establishment. If I could give it no stars I would.
