This was probably one of the worst manicures I've had. First, it took a really really long time to…read moreremove the existing gel I had. The process seemed inefficient as I've never had it take that long. Then, the technician cut into my nail bed and insisted on continuing even though it was starting to bleed and I told her I was in pain. And to top it off, really bad paint job. It was messy and uneven in so many places. I honestly should've done without the color and done it myself. Oddly, the pedicure was really good and soothing. That tacks on one more star. I'm bummed to have had this experience because they seem like really nice people, but customer service needs improvement.

I got my nails done here 2 weeks ago (reason why I'm not going to post a picture). I usually come…read morehere a lot because I like how big it is and the atmosphere in here. This time I was extremely disappointed in the service. I went with my friend, the man who gave her a pedicure understood English, we both wanted the basic pedicure without gel polish. The lady I got ( I think she's the owner) never asked me what I wanted but I told her I DID NOT want gel polish. Halfway through the pedicure I realize she's doing way more to my feet than my friend. I told the lady I just wanted the basic pedicure No gel polish. In the end she still puts gel polish on my toes & charges me 25 extra. The entire time she was being really rough on my feet and one of my toes started bleeding. She completely ignored me. I paid $65 dollars for this pedicure, super unhappy. I know she understood that I wanted the basic pedicure with no polish. Then I left the tip part blank because I was frustrated but didn't want to make a scene. She pointed to it and asked me to tip her. So fine I tipped her $7. I will not be coming back here again. I didn't want to spend $73 on a pedicure that made me uncomfortable and bleed.

Five Stars All the Way! I absolutely love coming here to get…read moremy nails done. As someone who's newer to Anchorage, I initially tried a salon closer to home--but after long wait times and even a nail fungus, I knew I had to find somewhere better. A family friend recommended this place, and I've been a loyal customer ever since. Lucy usually does my nails and she's amazing--super sweet and always excited to try bold, fun colors with me. Everyone I've interacted with, whether for nails or pedicures, has treated me with kindness and respect. The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is professional, and I always leave feeling pampered and happy. I'll definitely keep coming back!!

I was a walk in for a full set on Saturday at 1 pm. I realize that this is not an easy act to do…read more They did seat me within about 10 minutes MAX. This is why a one star feels accurate. I showed my tech a picture of what I wanted, she asked if I wanted dip or if it needed to be acrylic and told her that I didn't care how this design was done but I wanted it to look just like the inspo pic that was posted here. She said that's fine I can totally do that. She did the service and even corrected the nail that I saw was crooked so that it wouldn't be when she dipped it. She also cut off the acrylic a little long and I told her I wanted them shorter like the picture and she said she just was leaving room for filing. She was a great communicator. When she did the top coat she added a glitter top coat which was not pictured and I thought, "it's not the end of the world I'll just take it". Well we got to the check out and I looked at my nails and they are not what was pictured. I was pretty frustrated but left to go pick up my car for an oil change. I sent these pictures to my sister to see if I was being too high maintenance and she agreed that this was not done well even to the standards of the other pictures posted on the reviews. So I called the store and asked to speak to the manager (against every bone in my body) and politely asked if they could get me back in to just level out the dip and reapply the top coat and trim the side of my nails in a little bit. The store manager told me she would be happy to fix them at 5 pm when they had time. I asked if there was anyone else sooner as I live in Girdwood and made the trip today as a little treat but needed to get back home sooner. She said there was absolutely no time before 4 that she could get me in. So I agreed and called my fiance. I then called back to see if I could come show her that there was blood glued down to my nails, the unevenness and just get even a partial refund and she said she does not refund but is available at 5 pm to fix it for me. I am so disappointed in the response to fixing this. When I left the shop there were 4 techs sitting together hanging out, when I drove back by to get the images of the shop sign there were no cars in the parking lot. I will not be returning and I recommend either going to a different shop or being much more firm than I was when sitting in their chair. The job she did was $90 and I didn't even get the set that I wanted.

My nails are not even that impressive. But anyhow, my friend wanted me to go with her so I said "sure!, what the heck". I'll point out that for some reason I was not able to check into this nail salon and although I was inside the salon it said I was too far away to check in. I tried checking in from the parking lot to see if that would work and I just had no luck with that either. The salon itself was a decent size and lots of tables and stations for a pedicure. It is very neat and the staff is friendly. My friend and I went in as walk-ins and were pleased that we were able to be attended almost immediately. I went for a manicure. One thing I really liked is that the tables are side by side so it made talking with my friend a lot easier and we were both able to get our nails done at the same time. There were TV's playing "Vampire Diaries" so I guess you can be amused if you like that show :-) I chose to get Shellac polish which is like getting gel nails except as a manicure and supposedly this particular polish stays on longer than regular nail polish. The downside I see to this is that you have to stick your hands in a UV ray machine so that it can settle and dry. I would rate this 3 and a half stars if I could. Honestly the lack of stars is mostly due to the price. Overall this cost me $35 before tip and I while I liked the color and overall experience, it looked like something I could do myself, at home. In the lower 48 I've seen Shellac for $25 and with much neater results. I'll still return to this place and maybe try something different next time. In the mean time, this is 3 1/2 stars mostly due to quality and price.
