    Botched powder dip over NATURALLY long nails
    Kola H.

    I was really looking forward to trying this new salon nearby especially because the vibe inside was what you'd hope for in this up and coming neighborhood. Nice music, friendly greeting and being promptly catered to. Unfortunately for whatever reason the older woman I was paired with honestly doesn't seem to have a license for nails and I should have stopped her when my GUT told me to. What you can't see in the photo is the rushed/hack job she did barely allowing my old powder set to soften/soak off and she hurt me with the drill THREE times (when it gets WAY too hot in one spot- it really hurts). Again, I wish I did not delete the other photos I took (I tend to share my fresh sets for fun, I loved this color but hid the awful truth of the details). Listen I don't expect every nail tech to be flawless but if you zoom in, she totally ruined the natural shape of several of my nails (have you ever had such a rough filing that the true width and edges are sore and exposed?) Not to mention she was so sloppy in the application of the liquid activator and didn't ever DIP MY NAILS she GLOPPED it on and then spent most of the time trying to FIX and FILE it... When I was "done" the young, pretty girl who greeted me went from bubbly to serious as hell - she offered to "fix" for me but honestly I did not want to embarrass the old woman and as previously stated; Knew I should have just STOPPed her as soon as I recognized that her "skill" and technique was NOT NORMAL for such an easy request (all they are supposed to do is prep the nail, paint activator, DIP into powder, and repeat) the nail should never be like a bumpy/rocky mess that needs to be chiseled into this simple shape. Sadly Idk if I will be back, I usually go to Terrell Nail Bar but my favorite techs are usually off when I make my appointments... Currently searching for a private nail tech who takes pride in their work and is careful and attentive. I see why they have no Yelp presence, honestly surprised their google reviews are so great. Just sad my first and only experience was such a bummer.

    Nails - Jimmy  / pedi - CiCi

    I've been hooked since day one, and it's all because of the incredible team--Jimmy and CiCi! Jimmy is a true artist. Every time he does my nails, I leave feeling like I'm wearing a masterpiece. His attention to detail is unmatched, and you can tell he takes real pride in his craft. CiCi--where do I even start? Her pedicures are pure bliss. She has the most soothing hands, and she always takes her time to make sure my feet feel pampered and rejuvenated. It's like a mini spa day every time! If you haven't been to Dorado Nail Bar yet, you're seriously missing out. These two always exceed my expectations, and I can't imagine going anywhere else!

    The pedicure was what I needed. I no longer live in the area. I live in Fort Worth and could not…read morefind a review or location in the area that mentioned if the nail salon did male pedicures. I walked into a few salons, and they looked at me like, "Why are you here, Sir! There is a long wait," which translates to you are tall with big feet-not today. Lol. Well. I drive back to Forney for a pedicure. This review is for the guys who want to feel confident about getting their feet done at a nail salon that welcomes their feet and money. This salon does. The quality has always been great here. There is a complimentary drink plus nice massage chairs. The technicians don't stay here long, so it's hard to find the same technician twice. I highly recommend you do an appointment. If not, expect to wait. Come on guys. My feet are rough and when I leave here I can feel my socks. (Smiling)

    RUSHING and very rude! Walked in and the nail lady was rushing from the time my butt hit the seat!…read moreSeemed annoyed that I wanted to see two dip colors to compare AFTER she told me the colors in the book are not accurate. She ended up being nice afterwards and we did have a small chat so I went ahead and got my pedicure. The man who did my pedicure was rude! He asked what color I wanted and if I wanted white, I thought he was joking so I laughed it off and said no...well I'll be got darned he tried to put white on my feet anyways, I told him I did not want white and m with an attitude he asked me well then what color do you want? I asked him to see a book and I just hurried and picked something so I could go. Do not recommend and I will never go back. I should not have tipped but I always tips base of 15% but I regret that.

    Pros: skilled technicians, nail artists who can do designs, clean pedicure tubs and supplies…read more Cons: expensive, arbitrary prices, nickel and dimed vibe, techs are a little pushy about add-ons I went here during a special they had for 60% off the second service. The service was great and they did an excellent job on my nails and pedicure, but I found the pricing to be arbitrary and expensive. For example, to soak off dip ( while getting a new set) and do a regular almond shape was an additional $15 ( the receipt pictured shows $18 but they reduce it by a few dollars ) . I've gotten my nails done my whole life and I've never had to pay this much to soak off dip when getting a new set and extra for a standard shape . I also felt like the techs did not take no for an answer and were pushy which made me a little uncomfortable. I do think they did a good job but $60+ for dip manicure with no design, standard shape including the discount special offer is expensive. If you don't mind higher prices and feel comfortable declining add ons multiple times, they do a good job.

When I arrived, I specifically asked if I needed an appointment and was told no just check in and have a seat. After waiting about 15 minutes or more, another employee came over and informed me that Vincent's next appointment had arrived and that I would need to wait until that service was completed before being seen. Had I been told from the beginning that appointments were being prioritized or that there would be a significant wait, I could have made an informed decision about whether to stay. Unfortunately, I was on a schedule and had plans out of town, so I could not continue waiting. I felt that my time was not respected, and the communication regarding the wait was poor. Better customer service and clearer communication could have prevented this frustrating experience.

    My mother and daughter are regulars here.. I rarely like this kind of stuff and honestly find it…read moreoverpriced. Since my family are valued customers here, I'll be nice, enough. From MY experience. I'm not given the royal treatment like my family. Sometimes the options can be overwhelming and takes me a while to decide. I don't like feeling rushed or pushed for something that I may not want. Then I feel nervous asking for anything, change my choice, an explanation of what kind of special I selected and what the difference is. The technicians can be easily irritated and that's not a welcoming nor a returning experience I want. I'm already stressing about paying and just want to make sure I like the choices since they're long term nails. I've paid for a treatment and received the bare minimum. No massages, no special scrubs or hot towels... when I asked they said I paid for the basic.... When it's the same thing I get when my family comes.. additional add ons can be charged if you want a shape or style, kind of bizarre. They pick and choose the timeframe they want. I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't like the bottom of my nails to be full of gunk nor the sides of my nails digging in.

    I went here despite the really bad review due to a coupon I got from the mail which was 30% off…read more Their customer service is great. They make you feel very welcome and I like their massage chair. It made the wait more than tolerable. I also love the 2 drink concept. Their pricing is also reasonable. $30 for a basic foot spa and regular pedicure with it. However, I am just disappointed with the color and quality of my gel manicure. I got the oak buff and from the sample, it looks more brownish but when put on me, it looks more pinkish. And only been 2 days and it looks like the Polish is ready to peel already . P.s I have been offered by the salon to get my nails fixed. Problem is I just haven't had the time since I am very busy!

Social distancing was a protocol at the parlor which I really appreciated. I got the regular or basic pedicure and it was great! I was hoping they would scrub my feet more but overall they did a great job with my nails and it was affordable. They have a lot of OPI nail colors to choose from. They also do nexgen or dip nails as well as acrylic. Parking is ample and it's easy to locate the parlor because it's right off of highway 80 in a shopping plaza. I'll definitely be back for a manicure but overall service was great! And I love my nails!

One Saturday I didn't feel like the "hustle and bustle", so I called myself settling by staying in Forney to GET MY NAILS DID! PRETTY MUCH THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFEEEEEEE! I walked in on a Saturday afternoon and was pretty much seen immediately. My nail tech, Ann, takes her time and is very meticulous about her work. When getting a pedi, I like to relax, nap, or read a book. It's my R&R so It worked out perfectly because Ann was quiet and worked diligently. I'm going to ask for her everytime yall! Walked out there $40 broker...(tip included) and i probably would've paid more! FORNEY HAS COME UP YALL!!!
