Becky Tips and Toes…read more I'd first like to start by saying, no matter how bad an experience has been for me, never have I felt I needed to create a Yelp account to discuss my experience! I honestly wish the saying, "You get what you pay for," applied in my situation. I went to Becky on November 10th. My parents wanted to give me a little pampering for my birthday, and they know I LOVE nails. I was referred to Becky by another nail technician, so I assumed she must be pretty damn good if ANOTHER nail tech was encouraging her client to try another business (my regular tech doesn't offer embellishments. Thus she referred this location). When making my appointment online, I saw the times conflicted with the time I got out of school. Hence, when making my appointment, I called Becky to schedule for a time, not on the website. We agreed to 2:25 pm. I got to my appointment at 2:38 pm, calling Becky at about 2:20 pm to let her know I was going to be behind due to traffic, and she told me that was fine. When I arrived, I was warmly greeted, and we began the appt. Becky asked me what I wanted, and I told her EXACTLY that. I had a vision in mind, and I wanted that! In detail, I told her what colors I wanted, on what fingers, and embellishments of a plain blue bow on one middle finger and a black bow on the other. I asked for subtle glitter on each nail excluding the middle finger. Although what I got is ok, it isn't what I asked for or wanted. Nor do I feel it was worth the cost. For $75, I should have gotten every single detail I asked for and no small mistakes. When Becky began applying the acrylic, I was a bit uneasy because she kept doing what she wanted rather than checking with me before starting each nail. The nail shop that usually does my acrylics ALWAYS verifies that the design they are doing is what I want before finalizing each nail. Not Becky. She put a very showy glitter on one of my nail's, and it wasn't what I'd requested. I wanted an ombré of blue to black with a subtle hint of glitter over the ENTIRE nail. What truly irritated me was whenever I would ask her to do a nail a certain way, she'd tell me "But I was going to do this...". No, that's not what I want nor asked!! I'm paying enough money for the nails I envisioned. If you are not going to bring them to life, please do not waste my time or money! When I said I wanted more of a blue color on one nail, she blatantly put the clear coat on top finalizing it!! The main issue I have is that she didn't even add the main component I wanted on my nails, (the only reason I came to her shop to begin with) the bow embellishment! When Becky finished my service, I had powder under my nails, and when I said something about it, she told me it washes off when I wash my hands. She didn't even suggest using their sink. Moreover, I felt Becky could have at least attempted to clean everything up. When I left, I was extremely livid that my nails weren't what I wanted and that I'd spent $75 on a service that I was not happy with. Plus, I'd just wasted 2.5 hours (which shouldn't have taken this long had she been doing what I asked). I went back to the shop before driving home and asked what she considers embellishments because I surely didn't see any on my nails. She said the glitter was an embellishment! Glitter certainly is not and if it is, I only asked for SUBTLE GLITTER PAINT, not acrylic! She could not add the embellishments I wanted because she was too busy creating the look she wanted. She never added mine! Now today, barely TWO DAYS after my service an entire NAIL has broken off. Not chipped; just broken clean OFF! I'm highly disappointed & disgusted with my service from Becky's Tips & Toes. My service was supposed to cost $65, but I paid $75. I will not be returning. I thank my parents for trying to give me a nice gift, but I wish they would not have wasted their money. Word of advice, please give the client exactly what they desire, not your version. After contacting Becky on Thursday (two days from my original appt) to repair the index fingernail, she stated she'd fix it free of charge if I'd come back. Furthermore, the replacement was rushed & uneven to my original set of nails. It looked odd & out of place. Here today on Sunday, day five after my initial appt, an entire nail from my left index finger pops off. I was only talking and festering with my hands. This is the worst service I've ever experienced. I won't be going back, not even for a repair! No Becky. The way I do business is if I'm not satisfied and I gave you an opportunity to address my issue, yet you haven't I won't complain. Instead, I go to Yelp, which clearly is more effective.

I've gone to Becky twice so far. I had full sets of pink and white gel nails both times. They…read morelooked very natural and thin! She did them in just under an hour and a half. I cannot believe she doesn't have 40 5-star reviews. One great thing about her is that she puts hundreds of pictures of her work on her Facebook page (Nails By Becky's Tips & Toes). What is better than that; than to see what you're going to get. Becky is also very down to earth and nice and I never felt rushed at all.
