This place is a real class act. Good work with manicure+pedicure, great no chemicals, nice big windows and natural light. Reception in particular very on top of things. All good with an ingrown toenail also. Everyone was very kind when I had old dog in tow... Velvet Files is top.

Kyanne

Client

Velvet Files is amazing. If you are into a non-toxic, but still luxurious manicure and/or pedicure experience, look no further. The ambience here is so beautiful. It is the perfect mix of boutique and nail salon - but it is not like any other nail salon I’ve been to before. It isn’t loud or brimming with noxious fumes... it’s actually relaxing. The polish options they have are gorgeous. Everything they use on you smells amazing. The hot water soaked melt your stress away. Great massages. Honestly, I can’t say enough wonderful things about Velvet Files. Do yourself a favor, and schedule an appointment. You won’t regret it!
