K & E Nails

I use to use Amy a few years ago and my nails done with pink and white. I loved coming here because she offered different colors as the acrylic and the staff was great. She did an awesome job, and reasonably priced. So, I was looking for the same results and decided to make an appt with her. I will post a picture afterwards

Our dog was being groomed across the street from K & E Nail, so I figured I would give them a chance. Big mistake!
The cost of a «Basic» pedicure is $ 25.00 and a «Spa Pedicure» is $ 30.00. I asked what the difference was and was told that they give a better leg and foot massage and add scrub for your legs. I opted for the «spa mani –pedi» — at $ 40.00. As for the massage with scrub? That was quite a joke since it turned out to be just a little dab of scrub that the nail tech put on his FINGERTIPS to massage my legs. Normally, nail technicians will put a fair amount on your legs and really massage them. They didn’t even do a paraffin wax dip — which my regular salon does even if it’s a basic pedicure. What a waste of money and 45 minutes — from the wait time in the lobby when I entered the business until I left after receiving mani-​pedi! My feet were in the foot basin no more than 5 – 10 mins tops! If I’m spending that much money for a pedicure, I want it to last a while and be relaxing. I was shocked when he started draining the water out of basin and placed my flip-​flops on my feet. I will say that I did like the fact that he polished my toes after the flip-​flops were on! Later, when I asked about the wax dip, I was given the most senseless answer as to why they didn’t use it: «Only in the wintertime — it’s too hot and people like cool lotion in the warm weather!» SERIOUSLY???
As for the manicure, this is where I really got upset. I don’t have great nails, and opt for my nails to be buffed rather than polished, but I DO expect for the cuticles and nail beds to be done correctly. Afterwards, when I got out to my car, and upon further inspection, I went right back inside for a do-​over because my nails were jagged and cuticles and dead skin still very visible. The young lady that re-​did them did a much better job — I won’t fault her for the other man’s mistakes! I did tell her that she should make that man give her half of his tip since she had to re-​do his job! I should NOT have tipped him at all — but I’m not that mean. I did tell her that this was the fastest mani-​pedi that I have ever received!
One very interesting side note, I’m not sure what they use to clean the foot basins, since I NEVER saw anyone doing it, nor did I smell any bleach or cleaners that they may possibly use. Typically, you will see at least 1 person cleaning a foot basin within a nail salon while you’re there. Do yourself a favor — go elsewhere!!!
