| - Forgive me, Rose, for I have sinned...
(Actually, I'm hoping that Rose, my go-to pedicure girl, will not see this review, but by writing, I'm hoping my guilty conscience of cheating on Rose will go away!)
So this is the story... I had very limited time late yesterday afternoon... I was in major need of a pedicure (especially now that the weather is getting beautiful again and it's open-toe shoe time). However, I did not have enough time to make the drive all the way from Old Town to North Scottsdale to see Rose at Allure where I usually go. But, I really wanted a pedicure.
My thinking process was this:
*if I search yelp and find a pedicure recommendation within a few miles of my house, I will call to see if I can get an appointment
*upon seeing Julia's recommendation for "Candi" at US Nails, I called, and sure enough Candi could get me in
*Rose will forgive me if I 'cheat' on her just this once...
So, the next thing I know, I find myself picking out a color and enjoying a pedicure from Candi!
Julia was right - she did a really good job... and gave a killer massage too. The only negatives about this place were 1 - it didn't seem as clean as Allure, 2 - they do upcharge for callus removal (which I didn't need but I got it and it kind of hurt so I won't be doing that again anyways) and 3 - they charge an extra $1 for you to pay by credit card.
So, I will continue to see Rose when I can plan ahead, but for a back-up place when I'm in a rush and need a quickie, I like knowing that Candi is right around the corner! I guess what they say is true... "Once a cheater, always a cheater."
And if cheating on my pedicure person is the worst of my sins, I think I'm doing ok... don't you?!
