The salon has operated in Bloomington for more than 20 years and serves adult guests as well as children 12 and under. The studio is in a retail strip on West 84th Street, with free parking right outside the door. Walk-ins are welcome when a technician is available, and online booking through Square shows live availability and sends email reminders. Online bookings hold the chosen time slot and technician, and changes to appointments are also made through the online booking system.
The menu is grouped into pedicures, manicures, nail enhancements, add-ons and children's services. Every pedicure begins with a warm soak and ends with a hot-towel hand-off. The Basic pedicure includes a fragranced whirlpool soak, cuticle removal, nail trimming, shaping, buffing, a massage and polish. Higher tiers add callus removal, exfoliation and hydration, a moisturizing mud mask wrapped in hot towels, a 15-minute foot massage, or a 20-minute pressure point reflexology massage on top of the Vixen Deluxe base. The booking platform also lists a Deluxe Herbal Pedicure with botanical ingredients and a foot treatment, taking about an hour or more. Pedicures include a massage chair, and spa chairs are used for services.
Manicures range from a basic service with cuticle care, smooth shaping and a glossy finish to long-wear gel polish in any color, which the salon says can last two to three weeks. Dip powder is offered in color, French and hand-blended ombre finishes. Nail enhancements include builder gel, gel powder and acrylic full sets and fill-ins, and a full set typically takes 75 to 90 minutes. Manicures usually take 30 to 45 minutes and pedicures 45 to 60 minutes. Gel polish added to a pedicure costs $10 more than the listed pedicure price.
Listed prices are starting prices, and the final cost depends on length, design and product and is confirmed at check-in. Gift cards do not expire and can be applied to any service or product in the studio. E-gift cards can be bought online in any amount through the Square gift page, with preset amounts of $25, $35, $45 and $55 also available. Cards can be bought in studio too, where a custom card with a message can be printed.
The salon sterilizes metal instruments after each guest and disinfects spa chairs and footbaths with a hospital-grade cleaner between appointments.
The salon describes its space as clean and its staff as friendly.
