I was happily greeted at the door. I requested pedicures and full sets for my baby girl and myself…read more I loved our pedicures but will provide feedback that it could have been longer. It was like a race to get it done and that was the only thing I didn't like about the visit. The actual pedicure was amazing but it was over as soon as it started. I've had many so I can honestly say it was quick. I wanted the real spa pedicure feel. I was visiting the area so I'm thankful they had my color. All 4 technicians for both our hands and feet were very nice and professional. I would visit again if I had the chance.

Parking seems like it could be a hassle. However, as I was pulling up, someone was pulling out of…read moreone of the nail shop's assigned parking spots. I had some free time to myself and decided to stay downtown versus going to the northeast to one of the usual places I like to go.    It was a Saturday, and with that being said, it was packed and I did not have an appointment. The wait wasn't too horrific for them to be as busy. Some of the employees were welcoming, and some were just not. I actually debated leaving because I didn't feel comfortable. However, I believe he was the manager, stepped in and provided me with an update, reassured me with an update on the status of being provided a service, so I decided to stay.    The guy that provided the service for my nails was moving fast. A callus scrub is an extra, which is a bit bizarre to me because I thought that was always a part of a pedicure. I got gel on my toes. I was only shown one color ring and asked if they had additional color options. Another young lady brought me about two more rings, so I chose amongst those options.    My nails were not shaped properly, and they were really thick. I'm not one to complain at the nail shop because of the complicated process, so I said to myself, "They were good enough for me to get out of there." They didn't look bad, but they didn't look great.    The most disappointing part of the experience was after I left in my slides. I returned home looked down and the gel was peeling up! I was mad. I am not going to lie. I did call and message them on Facebook, and they told me to come back up and speak with the manager, but I never got another opportunity to do so between working and being a mom. Also, shortly after that, my nails started to peel up, so I just let it go, moved on, and returned to a previous place.    If it was an emergency, this place would probably be my second or third option. Once again, not terrible but not great, especially for the price.

From start to finish, the place is clean, professional and easy. If you have a choice, ask for Natasha. She is young and creative and super spunky.

She has literally taken my nails from a brittle mess I would never even polish to little canvases that I am so proud of. Just beware that parking is by meter, so leave a little extra time!

I didn't have a pleasant experience today at the Spa. I attempted to get this set done (pictured…read morebelow). When I first walked in, I showed the older gentleman what I was looking to get done, and he sat me down. He got my nails prepped, then I went to get my pedicure and toes painted. I got a nice pretty blue to match the nails. After that was done, the same older gentleman asked my pedicure stylist if she had 30 minutes to quickly do my design. Crazy. Then he just told me to come back. He looked at the picture and told me it was too complicated and it would take him all day, as if I'm not paying him. So I got frustrated and went with French. As I'm getting my nails done, my morale is down because I'm not getting what I thought I was getting. After expressing I had blue toes and French tip nails, he expressed that it went well together instead of offering a solution. And he stated I wasn't communicating about my French style when I didn't want that in the first place. As I finished up, I told him I wasn't satisfied with my service and only finished because I got started and wasn't communicated with properly. A day before my cruise, and I am very disappointed. Please make sure they explain realistically what they can and can't do before you put your money into their business. Doesn't communicate well. Good for quick, last-minute fixes. Other than that, go to a nail tech or the other salon by Food Lion.

This place has a beautiful atmosphere and I've enjoyed my nail services over the years. The chairs are pretty, but aren't very comfortable if you're getting a pedicure. A few situations, including with an appointment on the day before my wedding, have made me question management's professionalism and customer service. I've purchased a few gift cards for family members over the years, but sadly I don't feel comfortable with gifting this experience anymore.

And next time I return, it'll be easy peasy to get the appointment. Clean, bright, sleek decor, and my aesthetician Shaw was a delight ~ personality to spare (in the course of the mani, we solved all the world's problems, lol), really good and fast at what she does, and this is the first mani I've ever gotten that has lasted a week. (I normally don't even make it back to my car without ruining it). Was a great experience and it would definitely be my go-to salon if I still lived in there.
