| - UPDATE: After my first review of one star for Polished, I was contacted by management at Polished. They offered to fix my nails even though it was past their normal fix period of one week. I went in today to get my nails re-done. Although the new manicurist seemed a little annoyed she had to fix my nails, she did a great job. I left with a great gel manicure. Most importantly, there wasn't a gap between my polish and my cuticle like my first manicure at Polished.
I really appreciate Polished reaching out to me. It shows me that they're really interested in making sure their customers are happy, and I will be back.
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Although I was initially happy about my experience at Polished, I will not be going back.
I made what I now believe to be a mistake of telling the manicurist at Polished that it was my first ever manicure. (I think her name was Kandy.) She did my nails, even helping me pick out a color. I inspected my nails before I left the salon. Everything looked good except I noticed there was lots of space between my nail and the gel polish. When I mentioned this to the girl who cashed me out, she said my cuticle had been pushed back and would eventually cover that space. I paid $60 dollars for a gel manicure (including tip.)
Two days later, the gap between my nail and the polish grew even wider. A week out, the gap looks more like the Grand Canyon. The gel nail polish may last three weeks, but I'm not going to walk around with a huge space between the polish and the cuticle. I'm going in next week to get it removed.
For $60, a manicure that looks decent for two days is not worth it.
