I have an upcoming trip this weekend and I went in today to get a soak off, new set, and a…read morepedicure. I was seen and one of the lady's told me "we'll take your nails off, and if it hurts too much then we'll do a soak off instead". I was shocked and confused by this, but I continued with the service. The technician then ripped my nails off one by one. She placed a nail tip underneath my existing acrylic and used a fast, ripping motion to remove my nails. By the second nail I saw tons of blood, which she just said "I'm so sorry" and continued to rip my other ones off. I then looked closer at my bleeding middle finger to find multiple layers of my nail ripped off - completely uninhabitable for a nail tip to be put on for my new set. The entire experience of her ripping my nails off was extremely painful. I then told them I no longer wanted the service, just to please remove the remaining polish. She then, without letting me know, put a huge squeeze of nail glue on my open wound in my nail. It burned so bad and my nail was throbbing for a couple hours following. I am extremely heartbroken and disappointed. I wanted to have my nails done for this weekend, and not only did she damage my nails and ruin them completely, she took away the ability to even get my nails done for a few months until I let my nail heal. I understand mistakes happen - and I'm not sensitive to having a small cuticle cut every once in a while - but this was pure mistreatment. I am fully capable of taking my own nails off at home, which is why I choose to go to the salon and get a gentle soak off instead. I never once felt listened to nor felt cared for as a customer.

Had an amazing pedicure--only for it to be totally overshadowed by a horrible nail experience right…read moreafter. The same lady who did my feet started on my nails. All I wanted was a simple gel removal and a French reapplication. Her French tips were crooked, uneven, and already fading--so I politely asked to switch to a solid color instead. Once the new color started drying, it began bubbling up. I asked what was going on, and she tried to blame it on glitter in the polish... but the polish didn't even have glitter--just a slight sparkle. Then a man stepped in to try and fix it, and these photos show what I was left with... after the fix and after washing my hands. No refund, no apology. I don't live in Albuquerque, but 10/10 do not recommend this place. The only good thing I can say is: if you do decide to risk it, TRACY seems like the only one worth seeing.
