I have lived in Shelton for over five years and I wish I had found this place sooner! There were so many recommendations for this salon on Facebook and I’m so glad I tried them out. Prices here are very competitive, the salon is clean and smells amazing (they don’t seem to use any very harsh chemicals), the ambience is so relaxing that I almost fell asleep numerous times, the massage chairs are incredibly comfortable, and the staff here are some of the nicest I’ve ever met! Incredibly friendly, sweet, and they take excellent, meticulous care of their clients. I got a gel pedicure and a dip manicure, and both came out perfectly. During the hour-long manicure I was also given at least two very long shoulder and upper back massages, which was a fantastic bonus! I would not hesitate to recommend this salon and will absolutely return! What a find! And oh yes, I do feel much prettier now :)

I live in Naguatuck, and work in Stratford. I always go there for a quick trip to do my eyebrows in the way home- since I have a girl I’ve been going to in my hometown for the past 10 years. Today, I was crunched for time and decided to take the chance. I sat with the woman at the first desk, next to the register, and although I forgot to get her name, her work was excellent! I got a gel manicure, with a bottom coat of hardening gel (my nails are so brittle). They turned out amazing!! And they were done in 40 minutes! What a wonderful suprise, I will for sure be going back.

I have to say living in the valley most of my life,this has to be easily the best nail salon in the whole valley. From the second you walk in, it's a very clean, very calming, and inviting atmosphere. Everyone's there is very soft , spoken and very friendly. They takes very special care of their clientele. Weather it's inviting you to a warm massage while they take their time on their clients. They actually listen to you. The prices are very reasonable as well . I tell everyone I care about to go here. Beyond exceptional! Sylvia, you and your staff are amazing. Thank you so much for everything ❤️
