| - Came in for gel on hands, regular polish on toes. Left satisfied - but not WOW'ed. Which was surprising because the reviews are great, pics of nail art is awesome.
My nail tech : Dee.
The bad:
Nail shaping - was off.
All I had done was re-polish gel on my hands, no manicure - so she charged me $20 for gel, $5 for "take down" - most places won't charge you for a repolish on gel. That was disappointing.
She started with my hands, but at anywhere else I've ever gone - you start with the toes first for regular polish since they take longer to dry - THEN do hands for gel. I thought it was standard practice. And since I didn't have time to wait for my toes to dry I opted not to get them done.
I prefer, and think it's healthier, for your nails to be wrapped or soak off the gel on your nails, she wrapped my nails but waited maybe two minutes before she began scrapping off the gel - she'd scrape a little then re-wrap, it was really annoying and if I hadn't said something she might have torn one of my nails off.
The shop was just too quiet - no TV's, no music, just sound from outside.
The good:
If you're looking for a fancy design, I think this place does really nice work. Custom and more difficult art. - I like the plain stuff tho.
I appreciated that I made an appointment and was sat exactly at my appointment time - no waiting around.
Staff was really nice, including Dee who made small talk with me during our session.
Note: parking is easy, getting out late in the day sucks.
