| - Went here today and got a shellac manicure. (Price was over $40.00) I wanted and asked for a gel manicure but apparently they brought out shellac colors as well so it was sort of a surprise to be informed, as the manicure was being done, that it was shellac. Ok, I didn't know there was much of a difference, so I thought "whatever". Only, a gel manicure was $30 (quoted over the phone) and so I had to pay extra for the shellac. Anyway, I wish I would have been informed of the price difference.
The manicurist was AMAZING and wonderful and happily chatty. She offered me a coffee or water. She was AWESOME. The receptionist and cashier were kind. No tipping was permitted. The salon itself was very busy, and was very appealing to the eye. This place is a nice establishment, and the employees seem professional.
The only thing is: This is NOT a place to bring your toddlers and small children. The waiting area was full of children; one of which was a noisy, (screaming) little boy. Really, he was with two other small children, who were sitting in chairs as more "mature" ladies went without a seat. (60+). Rude and clueless parent, obviously. I stood around until they finally left (my manicurist was running behind) and I got my manicure. When I left, there were more small children cluttering the waiting area.
L&G Salon should not indulge this; it is VERY unprofessional to have toddlers in a salon where adults pay high prices to escape and pamper themselves. It was very disruptive and unnerving having a toddler screaming while somewhere, someone paid for a relaxing and quiet moment away from their own kid(s). So, a few stars knocked off for that.
Good thing their expert manicurist saved the rest of the experience.
