| - MARY, is wonderful! She is the one who gets the five stars not the business. I am an aesthetician and am SUPER rough on my hands (I also bite and chew on my nails) so I generally break through sets of acrylics and gel with ease. Not hers, I can go 3 months just letting them grow and they WILL NOT COME OFF! They may not look pretty by the end but they hold on, no chips, no cracks just grown out :) I love her! She also speaks english very well so we can hold have conversations the whole time and not sit there in awkward silence, which is lovely. I recommend her to anyone and everyone I talk to about nails. For the record i usually get acrylics with a gel color on top.
As for the shop itself... Probably 2 stars, I used to work at a nail shop so perhaps I have higher standards (personally I think I am more understanding). walk ins are welcome but they do always seem to be put out if you walk in, which is odd. Ive also seen them switch clients in the middle of services with out telling the client, so the poor client just looks confused and disgruntled. Its true about the liners, Ive seen them take out the liner empty the water and not rinse the tub. Also everything seems to be an add-on. Cuticles, massage, scrub I understand more advanced things like callous removal but a scrub?) Also they offer "eyelash extensions", which none of them are trained in nor licensed to apply. I cant tell you how many of my clients originally went to nail salons for "extensions" and came out with damaging (potentially permanent) results that I, as a licensed and professional Lash Tech, had to fix.
All in all I LOVE MARY! She is amazing and I will follow her anywhere. The shop itself is do-able but she is the best part.
