| - Two of my sisters and my brother-in-law stopped here for a manicure and pedicure after seeing positive reviews on yelp.
We all got what I believe was the Deluxe Pedi & Mani for $55. The staff was patient and personable. The foot treatment was great, and included lots of exfoliating and smoothing treatments.
The toenail paint was fine. However, when it came to the manicures, we were fairly disappointed. It seemed more hurried and less careful than the pedicure. Most of our nails came out with an uneven coat, and were very easily smudged. One of my sisters went back for a redo twice, while I had the finger nails completely redone because of the uneven coating. I also had to have them re-trimmed because the shapes were asymmetrical, and not rounded, as I requested. Since the first nail color was too thick, I chose a more translucent polish, for the second round, which was fine. Another sister had more opaque coral, and on inspection after leaving, she was unhappy with the overall quality. I realized later that the shape of my nails were all subtly uneven, and still not the rounded shape I was looking for, including my toenails. I also noticed my cuticles were very dry and contained unclean edges. My brother-in-law just has a trim and cuticle treatment, and he was fine with his nails.
To the business, I would recommend taking the nail polish out of the direct sunlight of the window, as it's thickening the product, or testing polish before customer usage in case a thinner is necessary. Attention to detail when it comes to the nails should be the number one priority. The staff should review proper techniques and apply them every time, with care, rather than whisking through without reviewing the results.
I wouldn't recommend going here specifically for nail color, but the foot/leg treatments were the most time consuming, and best feature.
