| - My nails were horrible - broke, chipped, and peeled!
I decided to try this place because of the reviews and I was disappointed.
First, i specifically asked if the had SNS natural nail powder. They did. I love that there are minimal chemicals in these products and NO lights are necessary, plus they are strong as steel when done right.
The manicure. Really not much of attention. For example, she used a file on my cuticles and did not clean under my nails. No massage.
The nails. I appreciate the use of a buffer/file instead of a drill, but the detail wasn't there to make sure the products stuck. First coats were SNS underlay and color. Then a clear coat, which normally seals it. However, she used a gel coat!!!!!!!!!!! Grabbed the UV light, which I didn't want due to skin damage!!!!!!!! I figured ok, I am fine, I just won't come back. Then she does another gel coat!!!!!! What the heck?!? Why?!? Even normal gels don't require 2 top coats!
Epic failures. Mind you the next day, I am going to Costa Rica for two weeks. I got them short so they wouldn't break. After four consecutive sets, never had a break and they last 3-4 weeks! 3 days later, my first nail broke, which was really a pain because the polish was sooooo thick! 2 days after that, another nail chipped. 2 days after that, my second nail broke. By day 10, 7 Out of 10 had lifted or completely come off. I was not being active either.
I am giving them 2 stars because it was clean and they were friendly, otherwise, I wouldn't give them any.
