After working 9 days straight I was in desperate need of some TLC. So a friend of mine told me to try out J'Adore. I was already so intrigued by their lush pedicure chairs and I felt like it was a cool concept that they used organic products. So I gave it a shot and I have never seen customers so happy with their services before! While I was waiting a customer almost hugged her nail technician because of how good her nails looked. So already, a good sign there!
So when I went in, I was greeted quickly and asked what service I would like. I always do a regular manicure and I went for the J'Adore pedicure which comes with 4 aroma options and I picked the Papaya Pineapple. I wanted this option because of the 10 minutes massage and the skin mask. With every pedicure you can choose either rose petals or lavender petals for your water. I picked Lavender and cucumber. Then I picked my color, they had OPI products with gel polish matches along two walls. They also had a brand that I have never heard of ella + mila, which is a vegan nail Polish that is never tested on animals and does not have 7 crazy sounding chemicals which I assume are typically in most nail polish brands. So I picked one of the ella + mila colors and went to sit down.
The pedicure chair was softer than I imagined! They did my manicure while I was getting my pedicure to ensure that my nails were dry by the time my pedicure was done. The manicure looked great and we had some great conversation. The pedicure tub was lined with a plastic liner, the nail file and buffers were offered to me because each customer gets their own set. So A+ in my book for cleanliness.
While I was getting my pedicure started I was offered hot tea, wine and soft drinks. The tea selection was huge! I decided on the White Ginger Pear and I definitely recommend that to anyone who can't decide on a tea. Everything in my pedicure smelled amazinggg. I didn't smell any of the other aromas but I was VERY pleased with the Papaya and Pineapple. It was as though when they transitions from each stage of the pedicure I knew because a new smell would come around.
So they did all the trimming and then a sugar scrub and then my favorite part was the skin mask. It was all the way from my ankle to just below my knees and it was my first time every doing a mask on my legs and it was so fun. I could definitely feel the difference from the mask on legs versus the rest of my body. I then got a 10 minute foot massage, which they timed with a timer to ensure I was getting every second. Then after that was paraffin wax on my heels and bottom of my feet. Best pedicure I have ever received!!
Everything looked great and when I left I had an issue with my nail polish but the owner had no problem fixing it which I really admired. So if you are looking to treat yourself I would recommend going to J'Adore! Plus, free 90 minute parking in the Harris Teeter parking garage :)
