| - I like to be able to have a nail boutique I'm familiar with in different areas of the city, just in case I want to randomly pamper myself. Recently I was in such a mood and decided to try Tiptoe while in Plaza Midwood.
What I liked is that I could walk right up to it, it's located sort of in the middle of everything in Plaza, very close to Central Avenue. The shop itself is is designed with modern decor. There is a comfortable waiting area, with beverages, a tv, magazines, and a sofa. The board at the front near the register lists their wide-range of services for adults, parties, and children.
This visit I had my eyebrows waxed and received a basic manicure. This was a Sunday after Charlotte had some inclement weather, so it was super busy in there, and I also got behind a bridal party, so my wait was rather long, but I don't feel this would be typical. I was please with the ultimate shape of my brows. I expressed my preference for a thicker brow and that request was honored. I was also pleased with the wide range of colors and the neatness of the shop and nail bar. During my manicure, I received a complimentary glass of red wine and enjoyed watching HGTV, while my tech worked on my nails.
My tech was very kind and courteous , asked my preferences before she got started and did a good job on my cuticles . This is very important to me, I've had my cuticles cut too deeply before , so I'm always a little leery of trying a new nail tech. At the end, even though I wasn't getting gel, the tech used the UV light to help dry my nails faster.
Overall, I enjoyed my experience, and will definitely visit again when I'm in the Plaza Midwood area.
