I have never been so unhappy with my nail service! I came here because I had just eaten at the restaurant next door.
The actual place is nice, and it appears to have a good selection.. Wrong!
I came in for baby blue gel tips with pink hearts.. Sorry, no baby blue! A standard color that every nail salon should have. So instead I went with pink glitter acrylic tips with red hearts.
Placing the hearts on my nails was such a pain in the butt! She didn't think that she should put the heart where I, the paying customer wanted it. I basically had to place the hearts on my nails myself for her to understand where I wanted them placed.
After that, it just seemed like she rushed through the whole process. I even got clipped with the grinder and received a barely audible, mumbled sorry? (I hope).
As I got up to wash my hands a noisy vacuum turns on. Geez, I was the only customer there..3 hrs before closing time! They could have waited until I left.
After putting my hands in the blue light machine, the lady told me my nails were "still wet" and wanted to rub alcohol on my nails to dry them faster. Instead of gently rubbing it on my "still wet" nails, she rushes through each finger.
She took $2 off my $43 bill.. Wooow that makes me feel sooooooo much better.. .. .
My nails came out uneven and flat (probably from pressing down on my nails while rubbing on the alcohol), and didn't really have the shine you would expect to have after going to the salon to get your nails professionally done.
I will NEVER be returning to Emporium nail salon again!
