I occasionally get manicures and pedicures here. Good for when you need your nails trimmed and a polish change. Think basic, minimal nail care not relaxing or luxurious and you get the idea.
Don't expect lotion on arms or legs, no cuticle soak in a bowl of water, no callous or heel scrub. The do use a small amount of sugar (?) scrub and hot towels but that's it beside the clipping, filing and a cuticle push-back. The nail file used on my last visit was very thick, course, and gritty which left my skin burning as my nails were filed. I told my tech it was hurting me but she went right back to using it again. A fine grit file was not used as a follow-up, so my nail edges were very rough and one nail pulled a thread on my blouse. I had to file all the free edges again when I got home so they were smooth on top.
My nails were painted well the last time, but the time before they had lots of bubbles which looked awful. I also noticed they often don't get all the old toenail polish off so you'll have to speak up if that happens. I feel like the techs just have tight time frames on them they are trying to meet so perhaps that's why the services are so minimal which isn't really their fault...
Just know before you go so you can set your expectations accordingly.
The staff are very nice and friendly, and the lady who runs things is always beautifully dressed and made up. She runs a tight ship and it's fun watching her work.
Helpful hint: There is no regular nail polish here to pick from, only gel so bring your own polish to avoid...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have been to your salon before and my sister has been going for about ten years. Everyone has always been so nice there. I really didn't want to give any stars for the treatment I received during my pedicure with Amber. I don't always have the money to treat myself to a pedicure. I explained to Amber that my big toenails are thick. She didn't attempt to cut them, but filed them instead. Every other salon have always been able to cut them. Amber then said I was making her job very hard. She told me that I should have a pedicure at least once a month, but said twice if I was too lazy, I should at least take care of them at home. After that she didn't speak or look at me, even when she wrapped my legs in the hot towels, she didn't even ask if they were too hot. My sister had a wonderful woman do her pedicure. I paid for the pedicure and tipped her well. I am not sure why. I am sure I am not the only customer that didn't have foot and nail problems. She was so rude. I didn't enjoy my pedicure at all and she really hurt my feelings and I am just grateful that no other customers were in that area to hear how rude she talked to me, but my sister couldn't believe it either. You have a wonderful salon, but again I have never been treated so rudely...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI came in for a dip manicure and a pedicure for my birthday. My dip nails turned out absolutely amazingāclean, smooth, and exactly what I asked for! Iām really happy with how they look and will definitely come back for my nails.
However, the pedicure wasnāt as great. The toenails came out very bulky, and it feels like the polish underneath wasnāt completely dry. Thereās some discomfort because of it, which took away from the overall experience.
Iād recommend this salon for dip nails, but Iād be cautious about getting a pedicure unless they improve the technique or drying process.
Update: āļøāļøāļøāļø (4/5 stars) I originally came in for a dip manicure and pedicure. My dip nails turned out amazingāsmooth, clean, and exactly what I wanted! The pedicure, however, was bulky and a bit uncomfortable at first, which was disappointing.
But I called the shop and they invited me back to fix it at no charge. Lynn was very understanding, and Nancy was incredibly patient with my request. They corrected everything beautifully, and I really appreciate the great customer service.
Iām happy with the final results and will...
