    I am beyond disappointed. I was a loyal client and gave this salon 5 stars in the past, but since…read moreHelen moved to Pikesville, the service has completely changed. I've tried multiple times to get my nails done, most recently on a Friday afternoon around 12:45 and have been turned away again and again. The worst part? There were several staff members sitting in the shop not doing nails. Most nail salons take walk-ins unless otherwise stated. Instead of being offered a wait time or appointment, I was simply told "we don't have time." That's not just inconvenient, it's rude and dismissive. A business is more than one person, but without basic courtesy and customer service, clients like me won't be coming back.

    Extremely disappointing experience…read more Like many of the other reviews, my experience with Helen started out perfectly fine. She was polite and friendly, and I had been a customer without any problems. Unfortunately, her behavior toward me changed dramatically one day, and the experience was so upsetting that I waited a full year before writing this review. I arrived for my appointment, sat down, and explained how I wanted my nails done. Helen had earbuds in and was clearly engaged in another conversation or listening to something. I repeatedly tried to communicate what I wanted, but I felt completely dismissed and ignored. The situation became much worse when she began using the drill to remove my polish. She repeatedly hurt/burned me, and each time I instinctively pulled my hand away. I told her that it was hurting me and asked her to stop. Instead of listening, she became extremely angry and insisted that it didn't hurt. That's when I noticed she had her earbuds on and had NOT listened to anything I said. She told me I was the rude one and continued arguing with me. At that point, I was incredibly uncomfortable and embarrassed. She was raising her voice and making a scene, and I honestly felt so shocked that I didn't even know how to respond or simply get up and leave. My understanding was that she had another appointment scheduled after mine and was trying to save time by drilling the polish off rather than letting it soak. But rushing to the next appointment is never an excuse for ignoring a client's concerns or continuing something that is causing pain. I have never been treated this way by someone providing a service. If you are working directly with a client, the very least you should do is listen to them--especially when they tell you that something hurts. Wearing earbuds, being distracted by a heated personal conversation or a show, and then becoming angry when the customer asks to be heard is simply not acceptable. Her husband is very nice and does a good job with pedicures, although I have had some issues with the polish and overall nail work. Unfortunately, because of my experience with Helen, I would not recommend returning. It's simply not inexpensive enough to justify being dismissed, ignored, and treated disrespectfully. Clients deserve to feel comfortable, heard, and respected while they're paying for a service.
