| - This is a neighborhood nail salon for us. We have tried it several times. The tech you get dictates your level of happiness. Don't walk in, especially on a Friday. They will rush and you will walk out with less than acceptable nails. My first two visits were wonderful, my third OK and now the fourth a complete disaster including damage to nails and nail beds and a manicure that looks like a child did it. Literally I left the salon and saw a friend and she said, "you need your nails done!" They were just done...this is how awful they look.
PRO: They have a ton...a TON...of colors for all types on manicures. The prices are reasonable. The equipment and establishment seems clean. Some staff are wonderful at their jobs...meticulous, nice, proficient. My first two visits were a great experience. Expertly done nails.
CONS: Having experienced 4 different people at the salon now, I can tell you who you get makes all the difference. About 50% of the staff are not qualified to do nails. That is a big chance walking in...50% chance you will get someone who can do the job well. When it is not done well, like this time, you have bleeding cuticles, sloppy polish, dip onto your skin and cuticles, very rough areas where she was did not smooth out the dip (areas that catch cloth rough), completely uneven filing and random nail cutting that will make my toes nails prone to in-grow (they hurt in some places today).
The bigger concern is I don't think they care. I get the impression it is your tough luck...which is sad. They are in a prime spot and have a lot of walking traffic. I will shop around now if I can't get an appointment with my first two girls. If you don't have a good tech, this place is not worth the trip.
