I highly recommend for pedicures and manicured. Will be back at the end of July for another pedicure and polish change. I have been back twice since this post and my toes have never looked better. Excellent service and very satisfied with results!

I was recommended by an acquaintance. I’ve gone a couple times to phong and even though he does a fine job. He’s very standoffish and unfriendly. Almost like he has so many clients that he doesn’t need you. I went back for the third time hoping things would get better and maybe more friendly. I scheduled in advance an appointment to get two services. They told me to come in at 2:45 on a Saturday when I get there Phong asked me what my name was and what services I was there for which I told him a manicure and a pedicure and he rudely told me I only have time to do one of them. I asked him then why did they schedule me for this time and he said I don’t know. He almost seemed happy when I walked out. I don’t write reviews like this, but don’t waste your time going to a salon that doesn’t appreciate you and is rude. There are a million salons that I could go to and I will not return.

This review has been long overdue. I have been coming to Dawn nails for more than 3 years and I have nothing but praise. While I'm a regular with Tammy (who is absolutely phenomenal) I have had my nails done with almost everyone there, and they are all fantastic! I receive compliments on my nails all the time! All 3 of my daughters also have been going here for years with zero issues or complaints. I love the staff, the cleanliness, and the ambiance. I highly recommend going here, you won't be disappointed!!! Dawn Nails is truly superior!!
