I waited a month before reviewing to see how my manicure held up. I do a lot of housework and am frequently in contact with water, yet my nails still lasted—they’re very sturdy. Also, nail technician Nana did my nails; she trimmed my cuticles cleanly and quickly, and she was very patient. Additionally, I received the nail colors I chose for free, even though I needed to top up. I will definitely come back again. Photo 1: right after it was done. Photo 2: 1 month after.

I really enjoyed getting my nails done at Nail Journal. The prices are transparent, and the staff calculates them before beginning the service.
When I first went, I was served by July. She does great work and is very fast. I went back probably three times to see her — sadly, she is no longer working there.
Currently, Andrea has done my manicure and pedicure twice, and she is really great too, offering advice on how to maintain them.
The loyalty card program here is really helpful. For every $30 spent, you get one stamp, and accumulating a few can get you $18 off (I believe).
I recommend looking for Andrea; she is really nice, especially if you're looking for a good first experience!

This is my second time letting Gowri do my nails. She's very friendly and gentle with my nails, and she's quite meticulous too! She can replicate the nail designs I show her 😋. So far, I'm very happy with the results. Thank you so much! :) I will definitely let her do my nails again next time!

I had my nails done by CC, and they turned out great. She was super patient, checked in with me throughout, and was really nice. I’ve been coming here for years, and my nails always last over 2 months. They offer great service and consistent quality. I would highly recommend! ☺️

Gowri always does an exceptional job on my nails. I’ve been getting my nails done every month for years, and no one does it quite like her. On the rare occasion she’s not available and I try someone else, I immediately regret it. It’s just not the same! She just gets it perfect every time! I’ve been coming back to her since 2016, and I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my nails. Thank you Gowri, for always making my nails amazing and beautiful. You totally deserve all five stars and more!
