    This is one day after getting my nails done here. They must've used cheap or old nail polish. I've been here twice and each time my nails have turned out mediocre, I honestly could have done this myself.

    After Dan did my nails, at least I taught him how to do the marbling effect which I learned in Kansas City ..

    The staff is generally very friendly and helpful. I have asked for a particular Nail Tech on two occasions. The first girl that did my nails was fabulous! When I asked for her they give me just anybody even though I've made an appointment. The last one that did my nails was Dan and I have to say unfortunately it was a cluster! As I was observing his methods I specifically asked that we end up with no lumps and none of the color on my cuticles. We ended up with few lumps as I kept pointing them out so he could regrind and redo, however I ended up with much on my cuticles and I was on my way to a luncheon. I told him I didn't have time to clean them up myself and would he please do it. Picture attached, darn!

    So Lastnight I went to Phillip Nail salon on Perryville at 7:35pm exact. I was so excited to get a pedicure. I never get to do this for myself and it's 40 bucks I probably shouldn't spend but I've heard such good things about this place. They took me and then Im just sitting there and the girl wasn't talking to me so I said oh I'm the last one in here, do you usually not take people this late? She said usually they stop taking people at 7:15 because it takes about 45 minutes for the service but he didn't look at the time and accidentally took you...I was like oh okay.. so I'm sitting there and the TVs off, no music, the girls not talking to me, they're cleaning up all around me and she's just rushing with my feet and doesn't even paint my toenails all the way down to my cuticle. 75% of my toes are painted and you can just see the bottom half of my nail on each toe. One of the coworkers came up and told me I had tiny toenails and I said no they just aren't fully painted...and The girl doing my toenails just shrugged her shoulders and didn't care. I pay the $40 and come home so disappointed, every time I look at my nails I'm just upset because I did not get my moneys worth and it was just a very unprofessional experience. They just shouldn't have taken Me if they stop taking people at 7:15. I decided to call this morning and I asked to talk to the owner or the manager and I got Philip himself and I started off by saying hi my name is Ashley I'm so sorry I'm not one to complain but my toenails aren't fully painted and last night when I came in I just didn't have the greatest experience and I just wanted to talk to you about it. He FLIPPED out on me!!!!!! He said do you expect us to treat you like God? Do you want to call here and complain and try to get a refund out of us and a freebie? What do you want me to do for you you just want to talk to me and complain?? I am seriously sickened and shocked. I said all my God you completely interrupted me and I'm not trying to call and complain and get a freebie out of you, this is how you talk to people? This is how you treat people? I'm literally shocked and he said I don't care I've got people who come here all the time and I know for sure we give you the best experience... I'm appalled.

    ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS NAIL SALON. Very very picky with my nails. Very worker is great and very talented. Have been going here for YEARS.

    Gel full set.

    I'm very picky with my acrylics and Ty hooked me up, the shape was good the thickness was good! My pedicure was good, my daughters mani and pedi was good. Overall, it was a good day at the nail shop and it's HARD to find a nail tech that gets acrylics right.

    Great service! Very happy with my nails. I am new to the area, I was a walk in and they did my nails right away, I didn't have to wait.

The one on the phone had NO idea what that was, despite me repeating it several times. Appointment was made for two days later. A couple of hours after said appointment was made, I received a call from them: "Hi, the appointment I booked for you at date, time: she is booked. So I have to cancel your appointment." There was no "Hey, I'm going to book you with someone else" or "Can you come in (at another time)?" Guess they don't need the business.

I explained to her that I was sad because I was getting them done because he had died of a brain tumor and it was a hard couple weeks working with hospice, helping my mother plan for the funeral, and the funeral tomorrow. I was sad and they were playing a sad musical on the TV. I asked if she could change it to cooking. She said " We are tired of cooking shows. She didn't change it. It was really making me sad the music was sad. I asked again she went to ask if she changed it but it seemed to bother her and the other employees. She did finally change it to a cooking channel, When I paid I added the tip up wrong and it was not 15 percent. She would not reschedule with me but she said "Sorry about your father." When I went to the car I realized I didn't tip her enough so I went back in and gave her more money to make it 15 percent tip. I apologize and said I was so sad I couldn't think straight. She said "Thank you" but refused to ever book with me again, I guess 15 percent tip is not good enough and I guess being sad for your father's funeral is to much work on her end. Don't go to this place and please go somewhere where you will be treated with respect. I would give them 0 stars if it was an option.

The service was very rushed and I hate to talk down about…read moresomeone's work but my nail tech personally was a a little aggressive w/ the way she was grabbing and tossing back my hands and her technique compared to other nails techs was not good. The glitter I chose was not used, the shape is lopsided and they are not all the same length, the tips are far too big and uneven and also not the V-Tip I wanted. To do the tips she covered almost my entire nail bed with white polish and tried to sloppily clean it up with a brush and acetone, leaving a white cast over the rest of the nails. When I mentioned this she said it was because the acetone is not clear and the clear nail polish will fix it. I again asked that she clean it up more and she sloppily and hurriedly went over it again with the acetone but didn't clean up not one thing. Two of nails also smeared under the light because she put so much polish on and it was so thick and I had to mention it 3 times for her to fix it. She asked me "why?" and blamed me for not putting my hands under the LED light correctly. I get my nails done often and never have this issue. The sides of nails have no polish on them at all. I could go on and on about how horrible my nails were after getting them done here. I will be going to another nail salon to get them reshaped and to remove this awful polish job because looking at them makes me upset all over again. I'm never stepping foot in this place again.

I have diabetes and have gotten infections from other locations in Rockford- never from here. The interior is cute. They respond promptly to Facebook messages. Depending on who you get, I've had my gel nails last anywhere from 2-4 weeks without chipping at all. Massages for manicures and pedicures vary based on who is performing them and how busy they are. I would definitely recommend making an appointment. Edit: this place is really hit or miss depending on who you get. Some of the employees do not listen or understand what you may be asking for. If the owner is there she will usually set things straight, but otherwise it's a bit difficult. My last appointment took 2 hours for a pedicure and no-chip, but it was because I walked in during a super busy time. Edit 2: since I had a different person this time, the manicure didn't last as long. I got a chip after 1 week. However, the pedicure is holding up better. Trade offs I guess! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
