I don't know if anyone will look on here for reviews from the salon portion, but I wanted to share my gel nails experience just in case.
I've been searching for a nail salon since I moved to the area. I decided to try Ulta since they use OPI and I always wear Lincoln Park After Dark.
Anyway, first, this is NOT a manicure. No soaking of hands, minimal cuticle clean up, no lotion or massage.
I had made an appt and still waited nearly an hour for the manicure chair to be available. Most of the wait time was spent soaking my old gel off, but still frustrating after that.
They also do not keep nail clippers at their station. Since I wear a dark color, I like my nails short. The beautician said that she wouldn't make my nails short how I wanted because SHE didn't like nails like that.
The whole appt ended up taking over two hours. Way too long for what was done. It was just slow.
Normally I can stretch my gel 2.5-3 weeks. This lasted 2 weeks.
