Kim did an amazing job on both my manicure and pedicure! She cleaned out my cuticles making my hands and feet feel so clean and fresh she also adds a vitamins serum to your nails keeping them healthy and strong. My nails match my toes perfectly and my boyfriend cannot stop complementing my nails. Kim is Super sweet and she takes her time to make sure that you were getting exactly what you want. I love her little intimate salon it's perfect if you are looking to build a relationship and get quality manicures and pedicures.

I didn’t realize that you are supposed to make an appointment to see Kim Chau, but I happened to walk into the salon during her break when no one else was there and she graciously stopped her break to take the time to give me a pedicure for my wedding. She was so sweet and caring! She took the time to do a wonderful job and, even though I wasn’t planning on doing my fingernails, she told me that she would do them for free for my wedding! Long story short, come to Kim Chau! She was wonderful!!!

Kim is amazing! It’s always Kim that takes care of your nails. Way better than the nail “chop shops” where you never get the same person twice. She will work with you on scheduling and is a wonderful and kind person. I love my nails, they always look beautiful!
Services: Gel manicure, Pedicures, Dip powder, Acrylic nails

Kim's salon is clean, quite and relaxing. She put a full set of acrylics on me and gave me a very good pedicure. She takes her time so I do not feel like I am being rushed out like I have been at many other nail salons. She is friendly and easy to talk to. I couldn't be happier highly recommend her services.

I'm so glad I found this super chic nail salon! Then I met Kim! She is so sweet and professional! The salon is a boutique style with a couple of wonderful massage chairs. The equipment is very up to date in technology and she has an extensive display of colors to choose from.
Kim is meticulous with her technique while keeping a fun chat about life in general. Very personable!
I'm so glad to have this pleasant oasis during depressing times.
Thanks Kim! I will see you soon again!

I've been coming to Kim for over a year. She consistently does a great job on my toes! Very sweet and conscientious. Her place is private,
clean, and comfortable chairs. If you're looking for a nice and clean
alternative to the busy, dirty, and unhealthy salons try Kim! No more
of coughing, sneezing and scuzzy guys with dirty feet in the tub just
before you!!!aghh. Great for me. Give her a shot.

I've been coming here for 3 years and Kim is very kind, accommodating and proficient.... she keeps up with technology and sterilizes all of her instruments...I'm a germaphobe and I feel she is ultra clean here! She does regular polish,Gel and even the new DIP technique! I feel her prices are very in line and great value . I would recommend her highly!

I highly recommend Kim as nail professional. The salon is extremely clean She gives her clients one on one service. The environment is peaceful, and quiet. The air smells fresh and inviting. There is always plenty of parking.
I like the fact that she uses the highest quality products and offers a variety of options, depending on your needs. As a nurse, I try and stay away from unnatural nail products.
I will definitely be returning as a customer.

I never thought I could have pretty, healthy, strong nails. I am in the cleaning business and I work with my hands on dirty rugs and just accepted that my hands (and toes!) would be hidden for life. That was until I met Kim Chau, a recommendation from a hair stylist at Alter Ego. I have been a client for just about a year, and since there are many types of nail shops and reasons why people get their nails "done" I wanted to lay out the reasons why she is my choice for my nails.
When you've been around as long as I have, you come across the bad stories about many nail shops. The
