Mimi's Nails — Local services in Baltimore

I’ve been to this establishment 3 times since moving to this community. My daughter is a little person and my first experience wasn’t so pleasant. When I advised of the services we were requesting, they began yelling she’s a baby and i clarified multiple times that she’s 13 years old and is a little person. The owner was apologetic and attempted to service my baby. However the prices were extremely high. It’s not irrelevant to mention this is a financially fluid neighborhood, so I overstood. For myself and my child I paid $320 for full sets and pedicures with gel polis, in the city it would have been around $250. Today I came alone to get the same services. I was greeted, however they once I sat down for my pedicure three of the techs came over to me to tell me the price. Adding the different services to gather which wasn’t too unusual. It was them telling me the service for my pedicure would be $100 and then asking was I “sure.” It was embarrassing. This is the my last time patroning this business. I would rather drive 25 miles into Baltimore city to continue to patron the salons I have used for over 20 years, than to continue to give these...

I have been getting my nails done 4 years and I had the most awful experience at Mimi's Nails on Eutaw Street. They first of all are awful they had everything everywhere it was completely unsanitary. But the main thing was they didn't file my nails down they took my money grabbed it out of my hand they didn't even file my nails down and you know how everyone supposed to wash their hands after everything's all filed she told me not to wash my hands and proceeded to paint over the dust from from filing my nails it was awful do not go there if you want to be smart and spend your money on a nice nail job go somewhere else my nails are all so sharp on the end and I have to get my friend to buff them out then nail polish she did one coat and didn't even put a topcoat they're disgusting there their whole outfit of people there is discussing I asked the manager they were all running around laughing of course speaking about us in a different language and the last woman to talk to me and my friend said you're done save yourself a trip do not go Mimi's on Eutaw Street if I was younger I probably would have ripped the place to shreds I was treated...

Update: luckily I had time still before I left town; I went back & they fixed my nails free of charge.

I now have simple black gels that aren’t gooped on. I appreciate it.

Original review: Literally the worst manicure I’ve ever had in my life.

I had my hands done today with gel. I could tell they had a few issues and when I tried to get them fixed, he said I was good & pushed me out.

Later I had multiple nails break open and ooze liquid. 2 nails peeled, one peeled one layer and the other peeled everything.

Also- zero massaging, even like the 30 seconds on the feet. Didn’t cut any of my nails before working on them. Very disappointed.

Do not go.

Edit: following day I have 2 more nails peeling. Wow, this is horrendous. And because it’s gels I can’t easily get rid of them on my own

Edit #2: ok, now more nails have peeled or popped open (oozing black gel ink and getting all over things). I have more messed up nails than I have nice nails. This is hugely disappointing. Of course I paid cash and have no receipt, so I’m not even sure if I could get my $ back or get these fixed (or at least removed)...
