I do not, absolutely do not recommend this place at all. I’ve been here 3 times each experience I’ve had was horrid. My most recent trip there the woman doing my acrylic nails cut my cuticle on both of my index fingers. Then she continuously kept tugging my are this way and that to position me for her to apply the nails. It was as thought she was bending me into a pretzel, it got to the point where I was half way off my seat so I could be close enough to her I mean I might as well have sat on her lap if she really wanted me to be that close. When I went to pay she then charged me for $ 45 telling me how I got gel on top of my acrylic nails and I told her I specifically had asked for a fresh set and nothing more. And that she didnt even ask to double check with me if I wanted gel, it got to the point where she started yelling at me in front of other clients. Another employee there of whom I believe is the owner told her to apologise to me and charged me for the $ 25 acrylic set I had asked for. Only warning go at your own risk. I’m going back to Purple Sea Nails.

I’ve gone to Vicky’s a few times over the years, mostly for special occasions when I wanted a gel set and a nice pedicure. Most recently, my sister was getting married so I went in a couple days before her wedding. Normally my experience is pretty good, especially if I have Vicky doing my nails(I never have any complaints about the job she does) and I know people who go to Tweety regularly and they seem to have a good experience with her too. And I will be the first to admit that I don’t know the etiquette for speaking up about what’s going on. And since I don’t go on a usual basis to have my nails done, I have a hard time telling what is normal and what isn’t. This last time I went was BAD. I went to Tweety for my nails, had a gel set done, and she did a good job but they were really long. Longer than I like them and longer than I’ve ever had them before. I told her I might need to have them shortened because I was going to have to lace up the back of my sister’s wedding dress and it might be hard with really long nails. She told me I could think about it and if they were too long I could come back and she’d file them down no problem. For my pedicure, I had Jenny doing my nails and then Tweety came in and put a really pretty design on my big toes. I will not go back to Jenny again. My right big toe was infected for a couple of days afterwards, so much that it hurt to walk, and she scratched up the top of my foot with the buffer she was using, which ended up being terrible because I was wearing nice sandals for my sister’s wedding. I didn’t say anything despite the pain because in my experience she’s always been a little rough with me and I thought it was normal. Regarding my nails, they ended up being too long and I went back the next morning to have them filed down. Not sure if Tweety was having an off day or what, but she filed them down unevenly. Very noticeably unevenly. After what happened with the pedicure the day before, I was very reluctant to mention it because she seemed rushed and a little annoyed. I ended up asking my aunt, who used to do nails, to file them down again for me and she fixed my nails. So in summary: foot scratched up, nails uneven, infected toe, bleeding from one nail, and it was made worse because it was for an important occasion and I trusted that my nails would be the one thing I would NOT have to worry about with all the wedding stuff. Not sure if I’ll go back.

If you want and excellent pedicure ask for Jenny. She will take the time you deserve and will let your feets looking like baby feets Now if you want nails then go with Tweety or Vicky and there is this other girl who make awesome designs on your nails I’m sorry I cannot recall her name. There are two things that Annoy me dobut I guess they can work on that: 1. When they keep talking on Vietnamese Sometime I got the felling is about clients. 2. Vicky sometimes I think she do not realize it but her English come out in a rude way, probably because is not her first language … Anyways they usually do a pretty good job!

I’ve been to this place of business twice in a weeks time. Both times, I was told she didn’t have time right now it would be a 30 – 40 minute wait. The puzzling thing is both times as had one customer in the chair & another customer getting her feet done. I will never return to this place.

Vicky, being a perfectionist, made me love coming here for years. Good conversation and getting pampered at the same time makes one feel better than good. I trust Vicky with my nails that I just let her pick whatever design/color she thinks is good if I can’t decide on my own… Make an appointment before you come in!

I have been getting my acrylic/gel nails done by Vicky for over 8 years! I recommend all my friends to her and everyone has loved her. She is the sweetest, most accommodating manicurist that I’m happy to call my friend! Go see her and you will not be disappointed. I get compliments on my nails ALL the time and will have french tip nails as long as I live!

I went here in a pinch. It was the only place close to me open on a sunday. SHEISCHEAP! ANDGOOD! I was going to get a thin black line on my tips of my nails. But I dont know who I was with, but she did a sort of cool design with black and white, which I actually liked better. And she did not charge. Now I am torn between her and my other nail lady. I mean both do a great job. But for going in such a tight spot, I think I chose rather wisely. I recommend this place because they are pretty good, and they wont cheat you.

I hardly get manicures, but I do get pedicures. A friend recommended Vicki Nail & Hair to me, and since my first time coming here, I’ve gone again and again — I have no complaints about having to drive 15 – 20 minutes to get to Vicki’s, because I know that my toes will be flawless! I know that Vicki’s(Vicki is actually the owner) establishment is clean, the staff is friendly, and that because they’re all meticulous, that I’ll receive a high-quality manicure or pedicure. I recently went on a vacation and got my nails done, my manicure lasted 2 ½ weeks, and that’s reasonably long considering the lifespan of manicures turning yellow, chipping, and tips breaking off altogether is a little less than 2 weeks. The past few times I’ve gone, I’ve gotten to know Vicki and Jenny… and they’re both so hilarious. So if you stop by Vicki’s and you happen to get either Vicki or Jenny, talk it up with them, they’re just a riot!

I originally had went here because QT Nails across the street only takes appointments. And so with an emergency, I had to stray away from my go-to place. This is what happens when you cheat on your regular, people. The pedicure, although not bad by any means — just wasn’t anything worth coming back to. It just seemed sloppy, that she didn’t know what she was doing at times and just BLAH. I may be a *special* guy, but I know what my cuticles feel like when you are scraping them(are they that bad…) and that you shouldn’t be pouring so much alcohol on my feet that I could start a BBQ. The prolonged massage she gave me would have been good if the lotion hadn’t dried and it felt like she was pulling the hair on my legs. So she got the job done. But to say it wasn’t pleasant would be a lie. And I have experienced better… Lesson is, when you cheat — most of the time it’s not worth coming back to.

What can be said about Vicki Nail & Hair? Their service is outstanding! From the moment you walk through the door you are treated by friendly and courteous people. They make you feel comfortable and are always aiming to making your experience there a pleasant one. I have been going to Vicki Nail for over 3 years now. I will not go anywhere else. My manicurist is Tweety and what can I say about her? She is WONDERFUL!!! Tweety treats you like family! My nails are incredible! Every time I get my nails done, which is about every two weeks every one is always waiting to see what Tweety did. She is so creative! She takes her time and makes a masterpiece. The entire staff is wonderful… the place is clean and comfortable. And I love it when they have music playing… it is so relaxing to just sit there and be pampered while listening to soft tunes in the background. If you are looking for a nail salon… it is #1 in my book! This is the place to go!!!
