This well-kept secret place in the heart of Plateau Mont-Royal has made me happy for some years now. I loved the little moments spent with Mlle V and all the beautiful fairies, all meticulous and expert in nail art. It is a small studio and it's always crowded but the treatments are always efficient and well done.
During a pedicure, the girls take their time so we can enjoy a twenty minute pampering session including foot and leg massage -- always appreciated.
The choice of nail polish color is endless for the greatest happiness - or headache, it depends - of the multitude of clients!
Manicures (at $ 15!) are relaxing, providing also a massage, of the forearm in this case. The girls are really fast and efficient and the result is always perfect.
Tami also offers gel manicure (Shellac), which lasts 14 days.
In short, a girl's luxury that feels good! We go back as often as possible.

Tami Chu died on April 2nd, 2015 after the vicious cancer ravaged her body, but never her spirit. She will be missed by many of us. Rest in peace dear Tami.
