About

The salon sits in Tampa near Midtown and focuses on nails and waxing. It describes itself as a place to take care of both in one visit, and it lists trendy nail art and relaxed appointments among its specialties. Groups such as engagement parties, wedding parties and girls' nights out are a stated fit, and multiple appointments or large group bookings can be arranged by calling or texting the salon. Hours are 9 AM to 4 PM on Monday and Tuesday, 9 AM to 8 PM Wednesday through Friday, and 10 AM to 6 PM on weekends.

Nail services cover classic and structured manicures, several pedicure levels (express, spa and deluxe), and extensions done with GelX tips or forms that take 90 minutes or more. Gel can be done in soft, hard or GelX form. The salon uses Dazzle Dry, a vegan polish that dries quickly without an LED lamp, soaking or any extra step, and it comes off with acetone. Men's manicures include trimming, shaping, cuticle cleanup, a scrub, massage and hot towels, and the deluxe men's pedicure adds paraffin, hot towels and hot stones. Children 12 and younger can book a manicure, a pedicure or a combined spa day.

Waxing is offered for both men and women, using hard and soft wax. Other services include brow lamination, which reshapes and sets brows, and a semi-permanent Korean lash lift. Facial options are a hydrating facial, a clarifying facial for acne, and an anti-aging facial, and there is also an exfoliating treatment for the Brazilian area. Spray tans start at $100.

Visit guidelines: appointments are preferred and walk-ins are welcome when there is room. Clients who are running late are asked to call, and arrivals more than 15 minutes late must reschedule. Anyone who wants a particular tech should write that name on the intake form. A 25% fee applies to no-shows and to cancellations within 24 hours, and some services need a deposit at booking. The salon does not use harsh cuticle or callus removers containing acids or other chemicals, and tools are cleaned, disinfected and sterilized after each service.

Gentle on nails and skin: no harsh cuticle or callus removers containing acids or chemicals, and tools are sterilized after every service.

The salon describes its visits as relaxing.
