| - I got to Top Nails at 6:25pm, knowing that they close at 7pm (I was desperate! lol). I had been wanting to try them out but hadn't gotten a chance to go yet. They were very nice and several employees said hi to me.
Pedicure: I got a basic pedicure. The pedicurist was nice, the pedicure was average. I feel like the pedicurist didn't seal my polish by going across the top of the nail. I probably could've used another coat of polish on my toes also.
Full Set: I had nails on already which were old. A guy named Tony took my other nails off (painfully using another nail, but I got through it). He said the place I had gone too before must've filed too hard. Sigh. Anyway, he did my full set and a design. I liked his work, except he could've started a bit closer to the nail base. He mentioned that he doesn't start so close because that's how peoples' nails get damaged. Fair enough, but I would've liked it a bit closer since the fill ins grow out so quickly. I should have told him to make my nails thin. I chose matte black polish this time, and I usually get my nails in oval shape, so when he was done, my nails looked like eagle claws (thick and black). Yuck! Mistake to get matte polish, or mistake to not tell him to make my nails thinner! I felt bad for coming in so late, so I wasn't about to ask him to thin them out or change the polish. He did a nice design on my nail. When he finished it was about 7:40pm. Overall, nice work. I would go back, but I'd be more specific the next time. And maybe get a different person for my pedicure. The other thing, I could've used an actual manicure or cuticle trimming but I won't fault Top Nails for this - maybe this is also something I should've asked for.
