I usually love the service here. I go for a full set and a pedicure as often as I can afford and gave always been pleased with the quality of the staff’s work. However, I went in today and had the worst pedicure of my life. The water was freezing cold, and when I asked the technician to warm it up, she glared at me and turned the water on without so much as an attempt to smile. She cut me with the cuticle trimmers TWICE and said nothing when I mentioned it. Needless to say, I was very disappointed with my experience today. Edit: I’m very happy with the full set I got today. A second technician did it and she was warm and inviting and made the time pass quickly. She paid excellent attention to detail and even helped me pick a color combination I like even more than what I had originally planned. EDIT: I went here about a month ago for a full set and requested a very basic bit of nail art. I asked for a thin black line encompassing each of my nails. The technician I had immediately began moaning and groaning that I was«asking too much» of him and that it was«too hard.» I ended up settling for something else(that I absolutely hated, by the way, they looked terrible and started chipping the next day) simply because I didn’t have the time to argue. I would give this place negative stars if I could. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Had me wait for 35 minutes after they said it would only be 15. I would have left except they had me start soaking my gel nails in polish remover… Then it was the worst uneven French manicure I have received. I’m an out of tower and went bc it’s near where I’m staying. I learned my lesson.

I would not recommend this salon at all. Absolutely terrible service. The lady rushed through my pedicure and manicure. The manicure was the worst I have ever received. She did not even push down my cuticles, the polish looks like a three year old did it and there is was still dead skin on around my nails. Polish peeled off the same day. I brought it up with the staff and they ignored me. Terrible. just terrible.

I enjoyed my pedicure and manicure here. I got gel nails for the first time and I’m going back today to have them redone after 4 weeks(I pushed it as far as I could). I recommend this place to my friends all the time.

I was pleased with the pedicure but not the shellac. The first nail chipped after only one day. The technician did not shape my nails and seemed rather rushed. With shellac over natural nails that was supposed to last two weeks, my nails were chipped after one day.

Went to this salon because it is close to where I live. Prices was pretty cheap so I already know to keep an eye out for health violations. This is my first experience at this salon. The opinion is only about one particular staff. Spa pedicure with sea salt scrub, mud pack, and hot stone massage was only $ 33. The man was very nice and not too overly talkative. He wore gloves during the massage but dipped his hand directly into the jar for the scrub and mud pack. It was fine for the first dip with clean gloves. But after scrubbing my left leg, he dipped his hand back into the same jar to do my right leg. The nail files and pumice stones were not brand new! How many disgusting feet have those things seen before me? It was relaxing but not worth risking my heath. I also had gel nails that needed to be removed. I know that the top layer had to be filed off before it can be wrapped in foil. Unfortunately the man took off so much that he scratched my natural nails, leaving them with keep scratches. The clippers used to removed cuticles/extra skin was not sharp and I felt more pulling than actual cutting. The base coat and top coat were painted on very sloppy. Just because it’s clear, doesn’t mean it should go all over the place. Not surprised that only one day later the polish was already peeling badly from side edges. I will only go there again for their pedicure while I’m pregnant because I can’t reach my own feet. I also have my own nail care kit that I will be bringing with me for them to use. Never go there and let them use disgusting used pumice stone on your feet!
