I have gone to many nail salons. Guiltyas charged. People are looking at my hands all the time. No one wants to see dirt under my nails So to keep clean, I got a mani im a big guy and pedi i do as its essier
. I took my special needs brother-in-law with me as i do often.
Who has incredible difficulty cutting his nails and toenails as a treat. Trust me this wasnt the issue.
We made an appt no walk in .
The cost was crazy high for men's mani-pedi. Ok, that I get. But there were three Latino Hispanic women. Please note that I am I could care less what religion, race, or color if you are honest, friendly, and hardworking. You are my friend. I am pointing the Latino part out. Because they were only talking in Spanish, owner is korean they made fun of my brother-in-law's leg braces as he could not raise them high enough to get the bath part. They were making fun of me as they were very rough using some sort of needle to clean under. She seemed rushed as her friend did. Why? Plave was empty.
I decline the massages as well so its easier on the staff.
My brother in law could not walk well with the strange slippers. But my brother-in-law loves getting pammpered, which is so rare. I wish you all could see his joy after he gets his nails done.
If " nails " are reading this post
Bad luck that my brother-in-law and I are both fluent in Spanish. I figured they didn't pick up on that fact. But even when my brother-in-law was upset as he understood the comments on " pantaloons- pants."
I've not tipped someone maybe in 20 years. We are very good tippers, especially when they take care of my special needs brother-in-law.
Very common for stores to have tap to pay. But the owner loudly said, " no apple pay " I have a Samsung, which, of course, worked. I went to get cash from thier atm that of course worked.
But then I decided NO, why will I reward these three mean ladies who insult a special needs person. I also could swear they jumped the price on us. I assure you my brother in law is DD and isnt coming in dirty. He doesn't get much in pampering this is our thing.
Fyi maybe TMI, my brother in law and I have immaculate nails due to our frequency to nail salons.
We didnt tip and I think i overheard the ladies yelling to go get me.
Dont use this...
   Read moreI went to this place with my friend over the summer and we had a great experience. I went 2 weeks ago, again with my friend that is coming from Montclair, to get pedicures. In the winter we both just get a plain pedicure with no polish and because I do my own finger nails we only came in for pedicures.
The place was empty and we both chose the “spa pedicure”. As I am talking to my friend I hear the pedicurists speaking and I am slightly picking up on what they are saying but can not fully make it out because I am also speaking to my friend. I also thought, “there’s no way they’re talking about us right in front of us” also because I am fluent in Spanish.
Later on Laura said in Spanish, “look how she has her feet positioned” complaining to her coworker when she has not instructed me to move my feet in any which way. I waited a moment and said in English if she wanted me to move my feet in a particular way to let me know and she said no it’s okay.
She seemed annoyed to be doing a pedicure and I waited a few moments to then speak to them in Spanish and tell her again if she needed me to move a certain way to just let me know. After I spoke in Spanish the two women did not speak to each other, but before that moment they spoke about my tattoos and how they don’t understand how someone can do that to themselves, they bragged and giggled about their poor service and not even asking what polish color we were going to do, and basically complaining about having to work.
My friend that does not speak Spanish knew something was up with me and we both still tipped them, but the experience was hurtful.
The salon is clean and this rating is really for Laura’s unprofessionalism in...
   Read morePaid $130 for full set with removal of my prior set. They had smaller selection of colors, so I ended up choosing something else. (Not their fault) After service was done I realized how awful it looked underneath my nails. There was deep hole-like pockets under my nails. This is extremely gross considering the amount of stuff could get stuck in there and for $130 I would expect better. I came back to get them fixed, though the lady is nice, there was minimal improvement. I will just have to deal with this til my next set. Will not...
