10/10 as always, never a bad experience with Carol 🩷

Carol is the best!! I would not go to another nail artist.

Amazing as always and love coming to my appt knowing I can goss or just sit in quiet and not feel awkward. Highly recommend her to anyone

Another great appointment with Carol. Shower her some inspo pics, she talked over what I liked/disliked and came up with a design that was exactly what I was looking for.  Looking forward to my next visit as always.

Carol is a lovely person, getting my nails done is a good relaxing experience, no soreness, not rushed.
