Nails Salon

I will never set foot in this place again. I needed to get a pedicure last minute before my vacation and figured I’d try them out since they were close by. Bad idea.
I walked in and wasn’t greeted for about 10 minutes while the two ladies were busy talking to one another doing their client’s nails. When I explained that I wanted a black tipped French pedicure they were confused. I should have taken that as a warning sign to run. I didn’t, I stayed.
Instead of giving me a natural pink base coat as I had asked for, the lady insisted on giving me some cream looking polish to the base coat. Then she proceeds to spray white onto my nails for my French manicure… I asked for black! When I corrected her on her mistake, she takes one look at me, huffs and takes it off. Like any Vietnamese run nail place, they started talking crap about me in Vietnamese. surprise, surprise. I guess correcting them on their mistake is a no-​no.
Once done, I just wanted to get out of there, didn’t tip as I didn’t believe she deserved it. Outside my toes looked an ugly almost florescent beige/​yellow! I was incredibly disgusted. To make matters worse, she put clear coat onto my cuticles and the polish started bubbling after the second day and consequently chipped. Even my boyfriend thought it was ugly.
I will never forget my experience there. Yuck

I went here once with a girlfriend to have our mani-pedi’s done. She talked me into getting acrylics, which I had never done before but since her nails always looked good I thought «Why not?»
Their prices were decent — it’s one of those stereotypical Vietnamese-​owned places where they don’t charge much, but talk about you with each other in their language since you can’t understand them. That doesn’t bother me, I’ve been to many Vietnamese-​owned nail salons and one bad apple doesn’t spoil the bunch.
They only have one pedicure chair so we had to alternate — not very sociable. It’s the kind of chair with the massage water jets, so they are not the best for sanitizing between clients since the jets can harbor bacterial growth. Their pedicure tools looked visibly dirty, which was disgusting. The lady that did my pedicure was very thorough — she removed calluses and shaped my toenails very nicely, however she clipped into the side of my big toe to shape it and it eventually grew out and formed a very painful hangnail a couple weeks later…
The man that did my acrylic nails was an absolute butcher… Never let a man with a powertool (in this case a Dremel) near your delicate hands! He destroyed my cuticles and filed my natural virgin nails down so much in order to apply the acylic powder that for 3 days I couldn’t type, do dishes or scrub my head when I washed my hair… I’m not exaggerating, it was brutal and my boyfriend still gives me a funny look every time I say I’m going out to do my nails because he remembers having to do all the household chores and wait on me hand-​and-​foot for those days while my hands were utterly useless.
I wouldn’t suffer my worse enemy to come here. Never, ever again!
