| - I was invited to a red carpet event just days before it actually was set to occur and I rushed to Surprise to get a manicure and pedicure. 2007 Nails was the only salon open late, closed at 7PM. I was a walk-in appointment at 6:30PM.
Facility:
clean, well-kept, well-lit. There were several staff members there (5) at 6:30PM mid-week. Everything appeared to be clean and well-sanitized. They line the pedicure baths with a plastic liner, which I've never seen before.
Staff:
two ladies worked on my toenails and fingernails simultaneously. I was really pleased that they did this, both for their own time's sake and mine. They were very polite and did not skimp or hurry just because they were closing in a half hour. The manager asked me to pay before my services were even halfway done, something I didn't really like, but went along with anyway.
Quality:
I was very disappointed that despite requesting the same color (OPI Got the Blues for Red), they instead used two different reds. And yes, it was obvious, they knew it as well. I didn't have time to have them take it all off and start over as they were closing. I had already tipped WELL ($10 per person), and wouldn't have tipped as well if I had known my one request wouldn't be honored.
Price:
$45 for basic pedicure and upgraded manicure (with hot wax).
I will likely return to 2007 Nails, but with an appointment. I think from now on, I'm not going to be as amicable as I was in this instance. I'll pay once services have been completely rendered and the color is as requested.
