I’m a finger-style acoustic guitar player and a split nail on my picking hand has caused me no end of grief for the last 3 – 4 years. I’ve tried DIY repairs recommended by other guitar players, including silks, super glue, gels, and Knox Blocks. When none of that worked, I figured it was back to the old-school steel finger picks until my wife suggested I try a professional manicure. Lisa has been taking care of my nails for about 6 months now and I really appreciate the time and care she takes to repair my broken nail with acrylic. Why I didn’t try that years ago I can only kick myself for. Playing guitar(steel string and classical) with acrylic nails is vastly superior to steel picks or bare fingertips with short nails. My wife and I usually schedule appointments together and she always comes out with beautifully colored and trimmed nails and toenails, which I also appreciate. You see, I’m one of those hubby’s who paints his wife’s toenails when she asks, but now I don’t have to because we have Lisa and she does a much better job than I do. Wifey has been talking with me about getting more adventuresome with her tonenails — perhaps flowers or butterflies. I’m good with that — for her. I’ll stick with the matte finish stuff for me. Lisa is a joy to be around, a character with a wonderful wit and hospitable to boot.

I definitely enjoyed my experience with Lisa at bloomin nails. I called on a Saturday and she was out of town– I left a message because I wanted to schedule a fill after trying all the other local salons and being disappointed in one way or another. I was bummed when I got a message machine… But thought hey?! Why not! Leave a message… I was pleasantly surprised to receive a text message from Lisa herself apologizing for missing my call and if I had already gotten my fill to please think of her in the future. I thought, wow! How nice. So i decided to see when she could get me in. Upon arrival. The shop was a little hidden but after one loop around the block I found her nicely labeled private parking for her business.(I had driven by it)… Walked in to a small… but nice and clean salon… It is a more intimate experience– just you and Lisa. She offers you coffee, tea or water… And has the works for you right there to choose from. Which is an appreciated touch. There wasn’t a ton of nail polish colors to choose from but there was enough and I found the green I wanted. This is where my already good experience turned great. Lisa was not just friendly but relatable and warm. she makes you feel like you’re old friends. Her nail work for my fill was spot on and she understood exactly what I wanted. Her passion is nails(which she does well). But even better than that, I think her passion is people. There is something special about Lisa that you just love within a few minutes of chatting. I could sit and talk to her all day. Genuine conversation and good nails… The whole salon was clean and sanitary which is something very much lacking in other local salons. She speaks English… And is professional yet relatable– which is so hard to find elsewhere. I found a keeper in Bloomin nails and I will be back as much as I can… & will be telling everyone I know too! Thanks Lisa!!!
