Nadia did some braids for me and they came out very nice! She has a very soft touch and made the experience nice. Everyone was nice and made me feel comfortable so I’ll definitely be sure to return.

Went in for a gel manicure, and I’m so glad I did! I have to brag about Maya my student, she did such a good job and was such a pleasant person to chat with the whole time. I told her I was getting my nails done for a wedding, and she suggested French tips. Thankful for her recommendation- they turned out amazing!
