I tried going to another nail salon in the Arcadia area, approximately an hour before they were closing (without an appointment) on a Thursday, and was told they couldn't take me for a fill that night. I hopped on yelp and found AK nails. I called to see if I could come in, and even though I'd be arriving about 40 minutes before they closed, they told me to come in.
A man did my nails (I believe his name is Tri, but i misplaced the card), and did a great job! The best part was that he wasn't rushing through the manicure and really paid attention to detail. I got almond shaped nails for the first time and absolutely love them! I'll definitely back for a mani and pedi soon!
