I had a great pedi with Lee today. Calm and inviting atmosphere..perfect for relaxing on a Saturday afternoon.

I don't normally leave reviews unless they're stellar, but I'm just really disappointed! I was in town for a conference. I get gel on my natural nails about every 3 weeks. This time, I went a bit longer and I had some chipping, so I thought I would get them done locally before flying back home. I ranked the Yelp reviews by highest rating, and Lee's was it. I didn't notice that all of those ratings are from 4+ years ago. Everyone was friendly as I arrived. I looked through the gel options and selected a rich metallic dark pink for my toenails and fingernails. That color couldn't be located, so I selected another pink. When she started, I found it odd that she used large brush strokes when painted the chemical that dissolves the gel. My skin was on absolute fire and still tingles an hour later. She never did ask me what kind of pedicure I wanted but I noticed some options for exfoliation scents on the wall, so I requested one. The color on my toes is a blue, not the pink I requested. That said, they look nice so I was happy with the outcome. My previous salons usually use one of two approaches when removing gel. They will either apply the chemical on cotton balls and wrap each nail or they will have me soak in acetone and then either scrape or use a very fine electric file to remove the gel polish. This place used neither. Instead, a regular file was used on the entire surface of my nail until the nail was painfully thin. She even commented on the thinness of my nails (they weren't thin prior to this visit--in fact, the gel on my natural nails has made them remarkably thick and resilient--hard enough to play piano without worry of chipping or breaking). She didn't ask me what length or shape I wanted and immediately clipped them almost to the quick. I figured I must have had some sort of chip down the length so I sad nothing. Oh, well, they'll grow out. She continued to file them down until the nail was painfully thin and the surface was left incredibly rough. I was a bit worried that I miscommunicated and she was going to attach tips rather than painting my natural nails, but nope. That's just the way they were done. (I understand some sort of roughness is necessary for the gel to adhere properly, but this left a very bumpy appearance to each nail.) I ended up with three cuticle cuts. She was doing them so quickly and was much more ruthless with any skin around the nail bed. By the time the polish was applied and it was time to file for smooth edges, there really was not much left to file. I'm left with bumpy nails with incredibly rough edges--so much so that I expect them to get caught in my hair when I wash it later. It is a pretty color, and the edges are uniform. The actual painting of the polish seemed to be fine. I should have spoken up, but I wasn't familiar with this place and have a difficult time hearing/understanding people I don't know. (I wear hearing aids.) Nails will grow out, but I'll have to figure out what to do in the meantime now that they are so incredibly thin. Again, she was very nice and never rude, so I hate to complain but I'm terribly disappointed with the experience and realize now that I should have waited to go to my salon at home. read more

Came in for a pedicure and the lady was so rough and made me so uncomfortable when I'm supposed to relax. She used some remover polish for my gel on my toes and idk if I'm just sensitive but it burned my toes so bad. She toes and the skin around are sore and red after and still sore days after. And idk if the don't use gel on toes or not but I think the lady used regular polish as I had to sit under a fan, but it's already chipped and my nails are cut so uneven. No thanks. Should have gone to my regular place. read more

The shape is fantastic but Near the bed of the nails could've been better taken care of. The paint is not smooth and two days after I had my nails done my hair is already getting stuck under one of my nails. read more

First my appointment was at 10:30 and I didn't get seated until 11. I only got a fill but my nails are not straight and very uneven from each other. Some are long and some are way shorter. Also not enough coats of paint but I didn't have time to ask for another before the clear coat was put on. They look fine but could have been better. Also was charged $15 for gel which I have never been charged that high anywhere I've been too. read more

I enjoyed my time here. The staff was patient took their time and made sure that they addressed all of my wants. They had coversation with me that made me feel comfortable. The only downside is that they are short staffed so you wait a while, but they take their time with you. You are not rushed and it is a relaxed environment. read more
