NailCafe — Attraction in Cleveland

I got short, almond shaped acrylic nails done here on Nov. 15th. 2024 . I'm giving 2🌟's, because It was a very long wait time. With 1 person ahead of me. I arrived on time at 6:15pm and wasn't worked on till around 7pm. Granted, I did come in without an appointment, so that didn't bother me too much.

The nails came out beautiful (in my opinion), and to the length of my liking . The pricing of the set was out of this world and I left a decent tip because of it.

Both the women working there are sweet, easy to talk too and are great with conversation and friendly. I loved talking with them 😇 .

** What I didn't like so much, was that once I got home, most of my nails had an aching pain, because the hardener for the acrylic was bonded with the sides of my fingers . And I had to pry it away from my skin for relief. The hardening material are/is also on the undersides of some of my natural nails aswell (pictures #2 & #1) . And on one finger it was on the top part of my finger (picture #3 for reference)

On day 10 of wear (11/25/2024) , on my left hand(index finger) the acrylic nail began to lift in the middle part of my nail bed. Very painful. 2 other nails were lifiting as well . I went to Walgreens the same day after work, to get nail glue to secure it .

I tried calling to no avail and left a message via Instagram, as there was no option to leave a voicemail . The IG message was never looked at . I was hoping to have this resolved/fixed, but I'm stuck with them now.

If you're not a regular and you're new like me, I wouldn't recommend coming here .

Update to respond to owner

Thank you for responding. I did manage to reach out 11 days after the initial appointment. Respectfully, I expected them to last the full 3 weeks . On day 10, is when they...

I’ve been going to Sandy for over 3 years now, and I can't say enough good things about her! From the first appointment, I knew I had found someone special. She’s always on time, which I really appreciate, and she’s so friendly and welcoming every single time I come in. I never have to worry about a thing—she brings all my crazy ideas to life and my nails always turn out perfect! The quality of her work is amazing, and they always last. On top of her skill, she’s super neat and organized, which makes for such a pleasant, stress-free experience.

What really stands out is how she genuinely cares about her clients. She's not just a nail tech; she's a really sweet person who makes you feel comfortable and valued. I always look forward to my appointments because it feels like catching up with a friend. It’s clear she loves what she does, and it shows in the way she takes her time to make sure everything is just right. I’ve been to other places in the past, but I’ll never go anywhere else now. If you're looking for someone who’s not only talented but also kind and reliable, Sandy at Nail Cafe is the one!...

I was in search for a new nail tech and came across Sandy on goggle. I read all the review and looked on her IG page. I was happy with what I saw and booked an appointment. The day of my appointment i was supposed to soak my nails off but life happened and I was unable to complete my soak off before my appointment. I explained this to her and I was willing to come back at a later time; however, Sandy did a soak off on the one hand and started on the other hand. I am super shy when I first meet people but Sandy made we feel super comfortable and relax. I really enjoyed the entire experience and I will be returning. I'm booking my...
