    My review is strictly on gel manicure. LeVista has been located @ Arbutus and 33rd for 10 years, according to my very un-talkative manicurist. I have never noticed it before, maybe because it's in a tiny strip mall with a gas station, Starbucks and M&M meats; almost seems out of place. What brought me here was a Groupon for Shellac nails; birthday treat for yours truly! I was able to easily make a last minute appointment over the phone; no online booking. When I walked through the automatic sliding doors, which seemed fancy, the salon appeared newish, fairly nice and clean. The front counter lady was pleasant enough and asked me to take a seat and wait. My manicurist popped up and waved me over to her station. No hello, handshake or any introduction so I sat down, looked at her and said, "hi and how are you?" Lol. She smiled and nodded. I am not always one to chit chat when I am being pampered, but it was pretty clear, pretty fast that she was there to do nails and that's it! I suppose she was nice enough, but after my last salon experience (Canvas) it was like night and day in the "friendliness and chit chat" department. Canvas, my technician new where I lived, what I did for work, all about my rabbits, my Christmas and New Years celebrations..... my manicurist at LeVista didn't even know my name, or ask! She did speak English Incase you wondered... I digress.... Anyhow, on to the nails. Overall, it was just okay. She was fast, about 40mins. She shaped, filed, and cleaned them up, painted them and gave a really quick hand (only hand) massage. I was never asked what shape I wanted and she filed them way too short for my preference. I've also noticed she didn't paint my nails close enough to the cuticle so they look a week old already :( There is also a more limited supply of colors to choose from and I didn't find my chair overly comfortable. In summary, if you have a Groupon ($25) and want a quick, no fuss gel manicure then give this place a go. I would not pay full price for the quality of service I received. I also LOVE a solid hand and forearm massage (like excuse me as I melt into my chair kinda like) and I certainly didn't receive that lol.

    Went to LeVista for the first time for a gel manicure, and so far so good! I had Leena doing my nails and she took her time cleaning, shaping and doing my nails. I've been to other salons where the manicure is done in 30 minutes but here, the process was closer to an hour and 15 minutes (I did need to get previous gel polish removed though). Shape was good and so far no issues with the manicure itself. My one issue would be that their colour selection is pretty small compared to other salons I've been to, but I'm really happy with the shape of my nails - which some other manicurists haven't been able to shape well in the past. It's a little pricier than other places - it was $35 for the manicure + $10 because I got gel polish (not the price they have listed on their website). But if you check in on Yelp, you can get 30% off which is not bad then! I was also able to get an appointment on the day of / they accept walk-ins which was nice.

He also enjoyed the paraffin wax. For myself, I got a classic mani / pedi with foot scrub. Service was quick and friendly so we were out within the hour. The place was PACKED by the time we left. Appointments highly recommended.

It's a very nice place, you feel like they could host easily 15-20 people at the same time. A great bridal shower or wedding day event perhaps? I came in around 5:45pm and they close at 7pm. I wanted the classic mani pedi. I was sat right away and had two girls work on my hands and feet. They have the typical big comfy massage chairs, but I never use them because I feel like I'm moving too much and don't want them to mess up the nails! They do a wonderful massage on the legs with hot stones and also do a massage for the arms. I was thoroughly relaxed. I mentioned that I always seem to get nicked when they do the part of cleaning up the skin around the nail bed. Well, to no avail, she nicked me. It was a small bleed and she quickly put the glue on it. That's my only complaint of the whole process. Otherwise, it seemed clean (new bag of tools per use) and saw them wiping and even mop the floors. I will definitely come back again.

She was fast and very good at controlling the wax temperature. She's so experienced that I would trust her even for a Brazillian wax! Liked their modern and clean decor. They also have wide selection of movies if you want to catch up on chick flick movies. The space is spacious and great for girls' get together. I would recommend the space for any themed party, i.e. grad celebration or bridal shower spa party. I was a bit skeptical about the place from the reviews. After visiting, I think the negative reviews are too harsh and not reflective of their current service quality. It was easy to book appointment and everyone I met there were friendly. Glad i used my voucher, the mani/pedi totally brightened my mood. I feel happy every time I look at my "melt with me" color :) I would definitely visit again.

I like to get my eyebrows threaded here because it's quick, and the girl always does an amazing job. As for my nails, I love getting shellac nails done and I have no problem with them afterwards. Sometimes I get nail art manicures and they always get compliments! The atmosphere is super relaxing, and you can get your nails done while watching movies or having a cup of tea. Great place to have a girls day and would definitely recommend.

    Barbie did a fantastic job on my bridal makeup. I felt so beautiful on my special day…read more Barbie wore gloves on one hand and asked me if I was comfortable that she had her right hand bare for application before applying the make up, which I was. She kept her mask on the whole time. She carefully put aside the make up she used on me to be sanitized, taking full covid precautions. I did not go in for a consult/trial run but was super happy with the final result. I appreciated that I was asked to bring my own mascara and lippy for hygiene purposes which made lip reapplication easy during though out the day.

Barbie did a lovely job on my nails making them look like cute pink smarties. My manicure was very relaxing and Barbie was warm and personable.

The one without my thumb showing is my left hand and the one with my thumb is my right hand. As you can see there a small bit of peeling and chipping with some on my skin as well. I wanted to remove my acrylic nails with gel polish quickly because it's been over three weeks and it was lifting. So, I checked on google where the closes nail salon to me was. It was here. I walked in and had to wait by the empty receptionist desk for awhile until one of the nail techs asked me what I wanted. She didn't come up and ask me. She yelled across the room. I don't think that's very good customer service. She could've stopped and came up or ask one of her other co-workers to help me. I yelled across the room asking for acrylic removals with gel polish. At least they fit me in quickly as a walk-in. The nail tech took off most of my acrylics but left a little on the end of nails in order for it to be stronger. That's okay, but what's not is that she could have filed the top off unevenly. There were slight bumps that you could see after it was done. I know she saw that my nails were lifting, but she didn't sand down the lifted parts either. I was definitely not satisfied and voiced that she needed to file it down a bit more. I think she heard and ignore my small request. She also sanded a bit of my cuticles as she mentioned that it was $8 to do it. Which I think is a ridiculous price as most salons don't charge for a cuticle cut. Anyways, on to my gel nails. I asked them to keep my natural nail length but to make them look as even in length and shape as possible. I chose an IBD Gel polish. They had an okay but smaller collection than I was use to. The nail tech did not use a proper gel base coat. Instead she used a clear glitter gel polish informing me that the gel colour would stick to my nails better. I don't think so because my nails started peeling before the day even ended. Usually, gel polished would last me two weeks if done correctly even if I was in the pool. She layered the polish on four times before there was even a decent opacity that I liked. How she painted it was uneven and patchy on the third layer, so I had to request for another one layer. The nail tech at least shaped my nails well enough. I had to pay $45 plus tax that comes out to $47 for a dissatisfied removal and gel polish. I felt cheated out of my nail salon experience as I go in to relax and feel pretty for myself. Here I left annoyed and wasted my hard earn money. So annoyed that I had to go home after work (around 9:30pm) and remove everything by myself and do it right. I am definitely not coming back and would not recommend to any of my friends.
