| - I've had better pedicures before, even at the same price point ($25 for my boyfriend, $45 for me with shellac). The service really was just OK at best, closer to being a little sub-par.
When we first got there, I felt a little bit awkward. We didn't get too much direction from the lady at the front as to where to put our jackets or snow boots should go, nor where we should have sat in the pedi chairs; we were just kind of standing there at the front. There might have been a slight language barrier, but I would have thought that level of communication is a standard part of the service.
A few things that had bothered me:
1. The lady that worked on me didn't push my cuticles back to clean up my toes/clean up the shape.
2. The exfoliating tool they use is just a foam scrub (as opposed to a "grater"). This was applied very roughly on my skin, especially because she also went up my legs, to the bottom half of my legs. The skin on my legs (and perhaps for many women), particularly during the winter, is much more delicate and sensitive. This was painful.
3. My boyfriend had some calluses/dry skin on his feet and he claimed they weren't treated too much.
I might come here again if I'm desperate because it's close to our place, but it wouldn't be a top choice.
