| - This review is for (acrylic) nails only.
I have always gotten gel nails, with one manicurist for 10 years. Recently, I had become unhappy with how they looked. My friend, Anna N (you can see her review below), got her nails done here and described this salon as very special in its ~nail capabilities~. After reviewing the instagram (I encourage you to do so), I was really astounded at how professional, beautiful, and artistic the nails looked.
I came in for a "consult" where I basically asked a bunch of questions and explained what I wanted, and Jordi was super nice, answered all my questions, not rushing at all. I booked my first appointment, specifying that I wanted someone senior and experienced.
At my first appointment, I learned that they charge for colouring nails (lol); even one colour is 15 - 20 (20 for shellac, 15 for any colour). Ladies, this salon charges a premium price, and this is definitely the most expensive salon you can go to. Although I think it's funny to charge for painting nails (usually it's part of the refill), I gladly do it because my nails look like a million bucks. I used to pay 25 for nails, and now I pay 100+, and I wouldn't go back. Yes, you can go get your nails done for less, like 50, but they will not be the quality that they are here.
I had my appointment with Miki, who was super cute, nice, and did a fantastic job. I loved that it was important to her that I was happy with the result. I was very happy and came to her for my refill. I initially intended to come after 4 weeks, but I also wanted to test out the integrity of the nails and waited 6 weeks before I came in - I didn't even have any chipping or lifting. I won't wait that long in the future, but these nails do last long, and they looked fantastic even after 6 weeks. I am VERY particular with how I like my nails, and Miki really did a perfect job. I love them so much I drive all the way from Vaughan (like 40 km), to get my nails done.
If you don't mind paying quality, come here. Your nails and hands will look phenomenal.
