I've gone to this salon a few times because it's conveniently close by to my house and have never…read morehad a bad experience except for today. I made an appointment for a gel pedicure at 10am. I've been told in the past from this salon that appointments are preferred over walk ins. I'm aware that the salon opens at 10am, so I was expected to be let in maybe 5 minutes after 10, just so the workers had time to set up everything. However, I was waiting in my hot car for over 10 minutes before anybody showed up to the salon. At this point there were 3 workers there, not a single one acknowledged me as I walked up to the counter. Another lady who looked to be a supervisor had to tell the workers to start prepping for my pedicure instead of worrying about setting up the store. If you are not prepared to take clients at 10am, then don't schedule it as an available time slot. Unfortunately, my grievances don't end there. Tram was my nail tech for this appointment. As most people do during their appointments, I put my earbuds in and occupied myself on my phone. I had one earbud out in case she needed to ask me anything or instruct me to do something. Usually the techs ask me if I want my nails cut down or shaped a certain way, but Tram didn't, which I thought was strange, but they came out fine. I was aware she was wrapping up when she put the hot towel on my legs, but I was waiting for verbal confirmation that she was done. She goes off somewhere and I'm still sitting there on my phone, thinking she's getting something or maybe putting things away. I finally look up after about 5 minutes to see that she is sat in a pedicure chair scrolling on her phone. As I mentioned before I was still able to hear and respond since I only had one earbud in, but at no point was I told that the service was done or that I could pay at the front when I was ready. At this point, no one was at the front desk, which is also why I assumed I had to wait. Turns out, she was just wasting my time and I was waiting there for nothing. Once again, the supervisor lady had to tell her to get up and take care of me at the front. I am very understanding of customer service workers having been one myself for a few years, but this kind of service is something that you'd expect from a teenager at their first job. The whole experience came off as very unprofessional and frustrating. Despite the connivence of the salon being close by, I would rather drive a little further to somewhere else that has better quality service.

As soon as I walked in a guy greeted me and confirmed my appointment and when I asked to change my service from regular pedicure to gel pedicure he accepted with no issue.

She did ask if I wanted to add on additional service but when I declined there was no pressure and she went on with the service I had initially requested for. The salon was very clean and everyone was kind. The only con I can think of during my experience was that when choosing the color for my gel, I felt a bit pressured as he was standing next to me as if waiting to hurry and pick the color.

I was really disappointed with my pedicure experience. The technician did not scrub my feet, apply lotion, or provide any callus removal, which is something I usually receive and expect during a pedicure. On top of that, there was no communication at all--no greeting, no asking what services I wanted, nothing. The service felt rushed and incomplete, and overall it did not meet the standard of a professional pedicure. Unfortunately, I left feeling unsatisfied and won't be returning unless there's improvement in both service quality and customer interaction. read more

Been stopping in here for the past few years on my way to work and these gals are fast - which is helpful when I'm on the run. The place is a little run down and the parking lot can be a bit difficult to navigate around in if it's packed. I'm also not a big fan of their UV nail dryer (not all that great for the skin). I prefer places that just use high speed fans or something. The ladies are nice enough although now and again they seem a little lackluster in energy and customer service.

I saw a "chrome design" on their reviews and wanted the same, just with "Christmas colors" (red, gold, green). The artist who did the design I originally saw did my nails; and while I was hopeful as he did a lovely job on my shape and fill, the execution of the chrome color was sub par at best. My "Christmas Colors" nails are Camo colored and brown. Now, I understand that *some* of that problem comes from the process. However, after he started the first few nails and they were clearly NOT red, but brown, I stopped him & asked him to fix that. Unfortunately, his best efforts to change color were half hearted. Also, I left the salon with more color and gel on my skin than on my nails. When I pointed this out too, he used cuticle cutters on my skin and didn't even get all of it. See the pics.

tl:dr avoid Jenny/the front station by the window!!…read more Came here for gel manicures the day before my wedding. Was excited to spend time dolling up with my bridesmaids, and we came on the recommendation from a bridesmaid in a bridal party a couple weeks prior. But what was intended to be a fun bonding experience quickly went south. For context: I NEVER get my nails done. The last time was over 5 years ago when I was in another bridal party. I had originally wanted something simple and natural, but decided to go for a "fun" style to mark the occasion. I showed the nail tech, Jenny, pictures of a milky ombre nail with some sparkle effect. She nodded, and started to get to work. I asked for rounded but not "too round." She began filing away with a HUGE emory board. Making quick work, she gave me a square with rounded off corners. I asked for a bit more round, and she rounded off more. I asked for still a little more because it looked too flat still, and she filed in diagonally until it came in to a flat tip. I was a little shocked by how much came off, and was feeling uncertain about the look. But she said there was no way to go back now, so I said okay to the rest of them done this way. I figured maybe it would look better with polish. She proceeded to file off the rest of my nails in a rush, mostly filing my skin rather than the nail. After filing, the edges were all uneven and very different lengths, and two of the fingers on my left hand had one side completely sawn off asymmetrically. Not pretty. I figured maybe she would come back and do detailed corrections later, but nope. Then came the cleaning of the cuticles. She nipped so deep that THREE of my fingers started to bleed. She didn't notice the bleeding though until she had already proceeded with chemical application, causing them to sting. She didn't pause to disinfect and stop bleeding. Just wiped acetone on them and kept going. She commented that my skin must be thin. It felt like she was saying it was my skin's fault for bleeding where she cut me. Then came the color. Base color job was nice and even. 5 stars. Tbh I could've stopped there and been fine with it. But once she tried to do the ombre... the sprayer machine she tried to use was out of battery. No backup. Not prepared. After struggling several minutes with getting the sprayer to charge back up, she gave up. But instead of explaining to me what was happening and giving me options to proceed, she decided to go ahead and manually apply the ombre with a paintbrush. It turned out very streaky. Let's call it an "artsy" ombre to be generous. Several layers of painting and curing later, once we were about finished, she then tells me that she can't do ombre with gel nails and I should have asked for powder. Again, not a nail regular, which I told her. And again, getting married the next day, which I told her. Yet somehow, my fault for asking for the wrong thing so that the ombre couldn't be achieved. The sparkle she added at my request as least helped mask some of the sloppiness. After all the painting and curing, it was finally time for top coat and finishing touches. One of my bridesmaids had finished 10 minutes earlier, and I had watched as her nail tech carefully cleaned the edges and made them neat and uniform with a wand, checking in with her regularly to make sure it was to her satisfaction. But Jenny... she came back with the giant emory board and hacked away at the corners again. Except this time, she tore into my flesh and I had to yelp in pain before she would stop. She left a deep gash in my finger, which she did not disinfect. And then once again commented on my "thin skin," as my fingers continued to bleed. This whole time I was staring at her California nail esthetician license, wondering if it's legit or if my experience is supposed to be normal for a nail salon. To wrap it up, she charged me double the regular price because it was not a basic gel manicure. She explained that other nail techs would have refused to do the ombre for gel nails, but because I was the bride, she tried her best for me (I wish she had been upfront and we wouldn't have bothered). Then she wished me luck on my wedding. We booked it out of there. Once I got home and inspected, it finally hit me how sloppy a job she did, how rushed out I felt, and frankly, how abused my nails and fingers were. I spent the afternoon miserably disinfecting the wounds with IPA. One of my bridesmaids called to complain, but they said the injury was an accident and refused to offer any sort of compensation. So buyer beware. Go somewhere else, or avoid Jenny.
