Honestly, did I go to the right place? This place was nowhere near as good as I was led to believe. Smallest salon I've ever been to.. basically a little room with three pedicure chairs and two manicure desks. Everything was dingy and old. They also had a really small selection of shellac colours. Also I was the only person in there and they didn't even have the tv on so there was nothing to even look at for 45 minutes.
The techs were also not any better than I've had at other salons. The man who prepped my nails was filing away at my skin several times and would tell me "No!" When I pulled my hand away or said ow. He also told me off for having my nails too short even though I always get them this short at every other salon. The rest of the time he talked on his phone. They switched off and the woman painted my nails. At that point the man went outside the door and started smoking so the whole place smelled like smoke. She did okay, but didn't get the shellac very close to my cuticles and it's kind of uneven around edge, and she didn't put any on my nail edge so I expect it'll chip pretty soon.
And I paid $35 for the pleasure which is insane because I can get a better experience at other salons in Toronto for $20. They also don't have their prices listed anywhere so you have to ask, which seems questionable to me.
