I have been going to Ivy Nails for over a year now and I have had nothing but positive experiences.
Each time I've been, Ivy and her staff have given a warm greeting at the door. The salon is clean and you usually never have to wait longer than five minutes for a spot. A shellac mani is around $25, if I'm not mistaken. The salon has a huge selection of colors, specifically from OPI.
Also, whenever I have asked Ivy or any of her staff to try out different lines or small designs, they have always indulged me. Lots of other places will charge you extra for this, but not Ivy and her staff.
With Ivy's help, I have been able to grow out my nails to a very long natural state and I am no longer wearing fake nails. Couldn't have done it without her and the rest of her staff.
