| - I just moved to Tempe a couple months ago and have been trying to find a new nail salon that's as good as the one I went to in Louisiana. No luck so far.
My mom told me this place was great and I was inclined to agree when I saw her nails, so I guess it was just the lady I got. I'd like to say that the staff was very nice and the place looked good.
Honestly, everything was great until the lady asked me where I'd gotten my nails done before. I told her about a little salon by a grocery store that I won't be going back to because the girl repeatedly filed my skin instead of my nail and I was bleeding when I finally got out of there. It seemed like two seconds after that the lady took her attention away from the drill and cut me quite badly right beside my nail bed. In fact, the scab just went away and it's been 4 weeks.
She immediately apologized, but I felt like she was being extra nice just so she wouldn't lose my business like the other place had. She kept saying that I had such sensitive skin and stuff. Well, anybody's skin is sensitive when put against a nail drill!
She put nail glue on it to make it stop bleeding, which stung like hell. Unfortunately, this was at the beginning of my fill so I had to endure another 20+ mins of pinching and prodding on that finger. I was not happy.
In fact, I was so unhappy that I failed to notice that they overcharged me until I was half way home. The girl who finished painting my nails wasn't the same one that did my fill. I paid for a gel coating and didn't get it. I wish I had been paying better attention, but I just wanted to get out of there.
One last thing, they didn't have UV lights and a teeny tiny little fan is NOT going to dry all the layers of polish, so of course after 10 mins in front of the fan I leave and mess up the polish a bit as I go out the door.
I guess it just wasn't my day or something.
