| - I recently moved to McFarland and have been trying places in Monona, the east side of Madison, and McFarland. I was looking for a no frills place to get a basic pedicure for a good price. I found it!
I walked into Happy Nails without an appointment. I was greeted promptly and instructed to pick out my polish from the wall of bottles. MANY colors to choose from, probably half of it was OPI and the other half was a mix of brands like China Glaze.
Now, the overall esthetic of this place is .... well, it has no esthetic. None whatsoever. But it does have five clean pedicure thrones and hardworking, friendly staff who know what they are doing.
The nail technician wore gloves throughout my pedicure. She was efficient and able to convey what she wanted me to do by touch only. The basic pedicure included the standard soak, cuticle push, callus removing, orange salt scrub of feet and calves, and a great, wonderfully FIRM massage. It did not feel like she was wearing gloves.
I was charged $27. I left her a "whopping" $6 tip (over 20%) and left there with happy feet.
I didn't have to pay for fancy chandeliers or neon lights, but they do have a fish tank and a tv on the wall. This is a bare bones operation for a bare bones price.
I will definitely go back.
