I love getting my nails done and haven't had them done in well over two years. So, I during some mommymetime I got my nails done before relaxing at a movie. I said I want a pedicure and a gel manicure. I was asked if I want them both done at the same time...I should have said no. Very awkward position. I don't recommend it. Both went okay, but I'm noticing little things. The paint on my toes is already chipping. My nails bubbled after leaving the salon. I now have two nails with bubbles which means I will eventually start picking at it. And...at $56 there were no nail decorations at all. You mean I would have to pay over $60 to have a flower? Seriously? No thanks. Won't be back.
Update:
It's now July 22 and six days since my gel manicure. It's chipping! I thought the first nail was an anomaly but no. In addition to the bubbling that happened on three nails (I found more bubbles on a different nail) my thumbs have visibly chipped. I am beyond pissed. I've looked at the nails of my friends and while I wasn't sure what to expect, I should still get longer wear than a regular manicure. Ridiculous....
