I'm writing this review as the pedicure going on. Heard good things about this place from the other mall employees, but was hesitant from reading all the other yelp reviews. I decided to give it a shot since my feet were looking a little sad.
Came in during my lunch break and asked how long the wait was for a pedicure. The young man (maybe 15) said about 10 minutes. Ok fine. Went to get a smoothie in the mean time. They had the water ready for the pedi by the time I got back.
Ok here's where it gets weird. The young man I mentioned earlier starts to take off the polish from my toes. A little weird, but I just thought he was just prepping them for the actual nail tech. Nope!! He then goes to the lady next to me and starts to give her a massage. Um, first, he's 15. I don't really want a 15 year old boy touching my legs. Second, why start the pedi if the actual nail tech isn't ready yet.
The actual pedicure was just ok. The bubbles were not turned on in the foot spa. I had black nail polish on before and then decided to go with French tip. All girls know that black nail polish is hard to take off. I noticed when I got home that there were still specks of black nail polish on the sides of my nail...mind you, visible through the French tip!!! He touched the nail polish a few times while he was painting. Seriously, I only had an hour for lunch so these mistakes added up. One star for the decent foot/leg rub. All this was done by the nail tech, not the 15 year old.
They all were busy with clients. I understand they want to get to everyone so they can make their money, but what happened to quality of work?! Does that not exist anymore??
2 stars for the massage and because they were nice people. I enjoy when they talk to me while getting a pedi. It takes away some of the awkwardness.
Anyway I will not be returning to this place, even though it's a convenient location and is cheaper than my regular nail salon I frequent near my house.
$30 for pedi with French tip...not a bad price. But I had to put another clear coat over when I got home.
