I was on the island visiting my parents in June 2020 and really wanted a pedicure to soothe my…read moretired and pregnant feet, and my mom took me to this salon. This is a venew shop, so the interior is beautiful and modern. It's centrally locates in Parksville, and their massage chairs are very comfortable. Covid - they have taken lots of precautions around Covid, which I really appreciate, including Lysol and hand sanitizer at the front entrance and provide masks if you do not have your own. Each nail station has a large plexiglass shield hanging in front of it from the ceiling. As for pedicures, they are only using every second chair to allow for proper distancing. Staff - all 3 girls who were working were really sweet. My pedicure tech was particularly kind and took extra care as pregnancy requires a few adaptations to the leg massage portion. She gave me an extra long massage which was wonderful. The techs were all fairly quiet and worked on their individual clients without yelling across the salon to each other (which many others salons I have been to are guilty of). Overall a very peaceful and relaxing experience. My appointment also started on time which I reeeeally appreciate in a nail salon. Treatment - I had a shellac pedicure done. As mentioned above she took her took with the leg massage and didn't scrub too hard with the heel grater so that it was painful, just enough to get the skin soft and supple. The supply trays looked clean, and they had a huge assortment of shellac colours to choose from. Update: I took one star off of my review once I paid. This pedicure, which I felt was very standard, was $20-$30 more than I've paid everywhere else except very elite spas in downtown Vancouver. I was taken aback by the price, and with tip the cost came to $80+. To me this is too much for a standard pedicure. Once I left, I looked up the price list online and they have multiple pedicure options, and I honestly cannot figure out how they charged me what they did based on the services listed.

I wanted BOLD definitive highlights and what I got was what the stylist called balayage. But I didn't get that either but was charged for it anyways. Not to mention, I was covered with hair when she took the cape off. I have never been to a salon where they don't brush all the hair off of you before you leave the chair. I return to the salon today expressing my disappointment and all my stylist said was well your hair didn't lift it, and that basically there was nothing she could do about it. She then encouraged me to come back in for another treatment and I said oh great for free and she said oh no you still have to pay; company policy. Then she said she actually under charged me for what she did. I spoke with a friend of mine who is a professional stylist and she said that's terrible customer service and that they should have fixed it at no cost to me. Never again.

I need to warn everyone about my recent experience with 2545 Salon & Spa (875 Gibsons Way #102)…read more On October 14, 2025 I paid $93.45 (tax in) for an "Unlimited Monthly Tanning Pass". What actually happened: -Used it successfully only three times. -Next three visits (during posted hours) the salon was randomly closed. The first 2 times had no notice. The third time, just a sticky note saying "understaffed, appointments only and to call the Sechelt location. -I called asking what was going on and if I could get a refund or extension since I tried numerous times to use my package. It's only for a month so I only have so much time to use it and when the hours on google are posted as OPEN, I should be able to access the beds. Owner Lauralye replied by email, said I was being aggressive on the phone and banned me. Completely false information. I never even raised my voice so this one threw me for a loop. When I kept asking for my money back, she permanently banned me in the same email thread. They offered a partial refund which was never received. I left a 100% factual 1-star Google review with receipts attached they got it removed/hidden. Now they are leaving themselves fake google review. Laughable. When I kept pushing, they threatened me with legal action and accused me of being "aggressive" (I have every email -- I was nothing but polite the entire time). Zero refund, zero apology. So yeah - they have no problem stealing people's hard-earned money, then threatening to sue you if you dare speak up. I cannot believe I have to go through this for ninety-three freaking dollars that they simply decided to keep. I have my receipt, and the entire email chain (including the ban, the legal threats, the fake "aggressive" accusation, and the deleted review). Happy to privately show everything to anyone who messages me. Please think twice before you hand this place any prepaid money - tanning packages, gift cards, whatever. I've now had to file with Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT) and my credit card company for a chargeback. Just posting this so nobody else in Gibsons loses almost $100 and then gets threatened for daring to complain. Sad that it has come to this but I have exhausted every option and tried my best to deal with this privately. Unfortunately I have been pushed too far. It's almost Christmas and these days, every dollar makes a difference. This is my hard earned money after all. Support local... but not when the local business keeps your money, deletes your review, and threatens to sue you for telling the truth.

I had to wait a few minutes out front. I was not offered any refreshments. The technician was friendly, but the service I selected did not include all the parts of a manicure, when I asked about it I was informed that the service I chose did not include it, I wasn't offered an upgrade. During filing, I had to point out several areas where the nail had not been completely smoothed out. When I left the salon I noticed that the polish was a bit streaky and thin in some areas. Overall, it was not the pampering spa experience I had looked forward to. It was expensive and I don't think the service matched the price. This is something I had splurged on. The room was painted dark or black and had signs of wear and tear everywhere. The lighting was too bright, and the bed was covered in obviously well-used and worn towels. Music was irritating not relaxing. Next time I will go somewhere else, or wait until I'm in the city where service is better.
