Do not go here!!
I went in for a color change and they charged me more than they would for a gel manicure (they charged me $10 to remove my gel and $38 to put on new polish). The math didn't add up, at that point I should of just gotten a full manicure.
Also, more than once have I gone there and my nails were NOT good. The manicurists are not experienced enough and definitely need more training.
I was a regular for a while now but will not be going back.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Katelyn H.Breckenridge, CO012May 10, 2023
This place is a hidden gem! I had an amazing pedicure with a foot/leg massage and then she rubbed my shoulders while my toes were drying. so nice, so friendly, so welcoming. I'll definitely be back!
the only drawback is it's CASH ONLY so be preparedHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Amira A.Los Angeles, CA732622Aug 8, 2021
I called to make an appointment for a manicure and full set. I needed a good nail tech because my nails and cuticles were very dry, brittle and delicate. I have eczema on my fingers and around my nail beds. The woman who took my call said she had someone really good, and they'd use the drill to gently buff away my dry cuticles and the manicure would clean up the rest. I asked if they had time to do both and she said 'yes, we need the money.'
What I got was an unskilled nail tech. Clearly the receptionist (who I later found out was the owner) didn't inform her about what I needed. Or maybe she did, regardless- I never got the manicure, just the crappy full set. My nails were being put on crookedly and when I pointed it out, she'd say "okay okay." I showed her several times they were crooked. She kept saying, 'fix later, fix later.'
So I tried giving this woman the benefit of the doubt and thinking that her technique must be different. Then I asked her about the manicure and she said - don't worry, I do it. I never got it :(
It was clear she couldn't see well. I kept telling her my nails were lumpy. She was irritated with me telling her to fix it but her work was sloppy.
And to top it off, her mask only covered her mouth and not her nose & mouth (why even wear a mask?)
When she finished, I looked at my nails in disbelief. They looked awful. She was quick to clean up, grab her bag and leave for the day. Not even a thank you.
I complained to the owner and showed her how horrible my nails looked. She kept saying 'sorry, sorry, I don't think she sees good.'
Are you kidding me??
She asked if I could come back to have them fixed but couldn't. I told her I'm visiting from CA and I'm not here for long. I had a rehearsal dinner I needed to get ready for, a wedding the next day then I was on a plane. She basically looked at me like, well I can't help you. The owner could've, at the least refund 50% of my money.
When I got back to CA, I had to pay (again) to have them removed & pay again to be applied correctly.
I don't like giving poor ratings but they did nothing to make it right for the customer and I was treated like my business didn't matter.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dan T.Whitestown, IN025Sep 5, 2023
Relaxing, my manicurist was nice and gentle. No waiting, walk in acceptable. I'm satisfied with my pedicures.

Awful experience all around. Asked rounded nails and got square, tried to explain again and ultimately had to file them myself. Didn't truly cut cuticles at all so much you could still see the cuticles under the nail polish afterwards. Polish job very sloppy. Already made appt at another nail salon for later tonight to have them redo it. To top it off it was one of the more expensive manicures I've had and not worth a single dollar. Do not go.

Please stay away. I went in for a full set (acrylic). They only had one tech that could do it and convinced me to do gel tip extensions, claiming they were healthier. I asked for a thin nail bed, and got wide. I asked about 4 times for them to shape it thinner. They would file a bit and proceed on not listening to my request. When they applied the gel it was lumpy and I informed them for which they blamed me for (even tho I used the upmost caution). Rather then fixing the mistakes they kept going. I should've seen the reviews, I would have avoided at all cost because they clearly don't listen to their customers. I paid $80 for lumpy nails on 5/21. It's now 5/26 and my nails have began to crack (pictures for proof). Never have I had such terrible work!
Update: 5/27 - Not even a week has passed and my thumb nail has a quarter sized crack. I work a desk job and am super careful with the care of my nails.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Angela L.Model City, Miami, FL4212Oct 10, 2022

Ok I loved Gomo with another tech but this tech, Joyce, is just not competent. I am not gonna comment as pictures speak for itself.

I did my nails with tips extensions because I had bite all my nails due to stress and she made it so cute! I love it. Will def return for dip powder and maybe try their gel. I did dip powder this time and the pic is the result

Just here in Philly visiting for a wedding! Perfect shellac mani & pedi. Clean space, COVID measures in place, VERY nice and professional. Perfect paint job and relaxing massage. They take their time here! Thank you & I'll def return next time I'm in town

I came here because it was close to work and seemed to be the cheapest option for a pedicure ($32 which isn't even cheap but beats the other places nearby). Everything was fine until the nail tech started putting the polish on. I noticed the polish looked kind of worn out and old and told her that it seemed gooey on my nail and was creating bumps. I said let's change to another polish and she refused saying it will flatten out as she adds on more layers. Absolutely not. It got worse, as one can logically assume. I told the nail tech to just remove the polish because I'd rather have no polish than this bumpy uneven bs and and refused saying it looked good. She didn't even clean the sides or anything. Very quick Mickey Mouse job. So disappointed. This was the worst pedicure I've ever gotten. Literally don't waste your time coming here.
