Everyone is awesome, I love them!!!! They’re the best nail salon in town. I’ve been coming here for years!!!! They know how to take care of me, every time I come, they’re so sweet. Best prices, best service, best people around!!!! I would definitely recommend Modern Nails, I get soooo many compliments on my nails. I love the ombré look, it looks so natural. Plus, it’s plain, simple, and quick. I love it!!!!

My first time in today and I’m so pleased with the results! I got a new set, and the prices were perfectly on par with other shops, maybe even less. It’s such an inviting atmosphere and I was looking for a new nail place in the area to go more consistently to. Well, I found them! Thank you thank you thank you. Fast, beautiful and the acrylic is thin…I think we all don’t like a super thick painted nail. These are perfect.

I’ve been coming here for over 10 years. Everyone here has been so sweet and accommodating. My nails are exactly what I ask for every single time. Pedicure, nails, lashes, eyebrows. I’ve had many of their services. All of my experiences have been exemplary.

I walked in and immediately got sat, Lena I think her name was, did my nails they were super cute and she was very efficient plus I really liked the star, it was only about 48 bucks and I got ten percent off so it was quite cheap, excellent service. Plus I got my brows waxed and they did an amazing job as always I highly recommend the brow waxes and if you get your nails done ask for Lena. 😁
