| - I'll start by saying this - up until about 2 months ago, I picked my nails to the point of extinction, and through willpower started growing them again. They were getting long and unruly, so I started looking around for a salon that would give me my very first manicure and found "Polished". I made an appointment and walked in on a Friday afternoon, finding myself the only person at the manicure bar! There were about 5 ladies getting pedicures, so it must be a popular spot. I was immediately offered a glass of white wine and my manicurist (I think her name was Zene?) suggested that I upgrade to a gel manicure because of the lasting effects. As I mentioned, I've never had a manicure before, so I accepted her offer and I'm so glad I did! She was very gentle with my hands and put extra lotion on the dry spots of my knuckles, and the polish is flawless. I've had it on for 3 days and it still looks shiny and new! I also got an eyebrow waxing, which was fairly painless. The only thing I would say is that they don't accept tips on cards, which is a little old fashioned, especially for a salon with multiple locations in Charlotte. They do have an ATM there, so I made sure to use that because my manicurist definitely deserved the tip! She even let me hang out there and finish my wine after I was done.
Bottom line - I had a great experience and will be returning soon!
