You tell me if this sounds fishy to you…read more I walked in today to simply get a basic mani and before I even sat down the girl at the front asked me for my credit card number. I was confused. I asked her why and she told me to hold my spot. Hold my spot? So, I asked her if she wanted me to come back later?....."No, no...." she said, I can take you now. Now I was even more baffled. I told her I'd be paying with debit and she told me well that's totally different. If you want to book online for next time you come in...it will be easier for you with your CC information registered online. Well, first off....how do you know I'll be back.....secondly, can't I just do that myself at home in the comfort of my own space and privacy? Her approach to getting my credit card info. just felt very out of bounds and forced making me feel very uncomfortable. I clarified to her: I just want a basic mani, paying debit when it's done. What do you need my credit card number for? When she realized that I wasn't into the whole...."let's share private information thang" she backed off. To be honest, at that point I was a bit startled, because just about a month ago I had fraudulent theft on my debit card and Vancouver at the moment is under serious ID theft and credit theft. Once she allowed me to enter past the Welcome matt without grabbing my credit card information, she asked me to pick a colour. Two things happened while I was trying to find my colour at the wall in the back. 1. I didn't find any colour I liked (very limited colour selection) 2. The red flags just didn't go away. It just felt off. I left without getting my nails done. I pick a colour. you paint my nails. I pay debit. We all go home happy. What do you need my credit card information for?

Best mani/pedi I've ever had. The ladies were truly skilled, professional, and kind. Thank you!read more

This was my third visit to casbah in last three years . My very first visit was equally pleasant as…read moremy recent one but don't know how i skipped writing a review. Anyways, please don't miss enjoying their services if you are in the city. You step into a different world here. Even though its in the middle of the city and in a busy plaza but once the doors of the spa closes behind you, the noises of world also shut down. ( maybe thats just me) I was excited for cbd oil body massage coupled with derma facial. I just love pampering myself and they provide the means to you. First you are greeted , and then taken to change room/locker room. You get your locker with a key, a cosy and warm bathrobe, slippers and anything else like a rubber band or face mask. The bathroom has toilet and showers. Vanity has all the required items like a blow dry , roller, pins and stuff. Change and be seated in the relaxing lounge to have a cup of tea or wine until ur esthetician comes to take you to your room for services. Omg, my esthetician was having the most soft hands i ever felt. She was very professional and did good job. Whole experience was relaxing and smooth. Massage bed is heated and they don't uncover your whole body but parts by parts to massage so you are warm and covered the whole time ( letting the shy people know that ) . They have cool range of products to pick from and also they would suggest if that suits your skin type. Once your service is done, you can still relax m chill in the lounge and pay to leave whenever you are ready. I haven't tried anything else there but they do have manicures, pedicures and make up application counter apart from facials and massages so check th out.

Sad part was they were using polish that was old and running out. Weird...right! My friend unfortunately didn't even get to have the colour she wanted. Anyway... hope it was just a bad day for them. Hmmmm...

Although the store was facing a busy street, we didn't hear any noise during our massage and facial and so we are super impressed about that. I would come back for their services like pedicure! There is also free customer parking in the back so we didn't have to worry about parking meter being up.

This is by far my favourite place to get a manicure and a pedicure. The staff are so kind and…read morefriendly to you and will always offer you a complimentary hot water or tea. If you get a pedicure, you sit in the massage chairs, and it is very relaxing. For the manicure, you can also get one with or without a massage, but I always like to recommend a massage as it is quite relaxing. If you have a reference idea for the nails that you want, you could always show it to them and talk through what they can do to achieve the look. I definitely recommend calling or booking online as they can sometimes get very busy and are not always able to accommodate walk-ins. With that being said if you are in the area, I do recommend just stopping in and seeing whether or not they have an opening if they do not then they will surely try to book you in for a time that works. They also have a stamp card for services over $50 so that is always a plus and perk for loyal customers.

I walked in two weeks ago and they were able to fit me in right away. The salon is small but very…read moreclean and nicely maintained. They had a huge selection of shellac colours. My nail tech was very efficient, quick and gentle. She was able to clean up my cuticles without causing any redness or irritation. The colour I originally picked turned out to be lighter than the sample, and after doing one nail, she pointed it out to me and went and got another colour she recommended; I agreed and she went ahead with the new shade, and it turned out to be a perfect match for what I had originally wanted. I was happy she made the suggestion since I know some nail technicians just stay quiet and do what you've asked without question. The pricing is great, and the cheapest I've paid in a long time. It's two weeks passed and my nails are growing out great without any chips. One thing I noticed was that over at their pedicure section, the tubs all had plastic liners - I had read somewhere this is actually extremely hygienic and something that should be done more widely. I'm excited to have found a nice nail place in my area, since I've tried a few in the past that were either too expensive or didn't hold up. I'd definitely recommend this place to others.

Never had any problems here. My whole family comes here lol!

Grand opening of this shop! Initially I came in and could not find anyone around (yes I arrived a…read morefew minutes before the shop opened). The atmosphere was clean and serene. Rose nail is the third location (third sister) of this well run chain offering good service and prices in the Riley Park neighborhood. Chairs for manicure and pedicure stations were comfortable and have the massage feature (need to try that on my next visit). Technology was state of the art as they had wireless nail (for gel) dryers and this alone imparted a unique experience (cord free). Wow! Foot treatment was at the level of a private spa practitioner focusing on critical areas and applying immediate relief (thank you!). Nail treatment was great and pedicure was divine (see photos). Unfortunately I forgot my sandals and Rose Nail lent me a pair (so spoiled) for the short-walk home. Look for the specials listed in front and if you need to access emails or work while playing, Wi-Fi is free at this location. Enjoyable spa and friendly "no hurry or worry" Canadians were a welcome contrast to our busy yet revered USA.

Got a pedicure here awhile back. The staff were all really friendly and nice, and the shop was…read moreclean and bright. However, the pedicure itself felt a bit rushed and didn't look perfect. There were drops of nail polish left on my toes beside the nails. I had to try and remove it when I got home.

We went for the couples head spa. It is located inside a nail salon. It started with a massage of…read moreyour shoulder and neck and then it goes to the wet stuff. We thought it would be some hair treatments similar to a facial but for hair but it was just shampoo and conditioner. The worst part of it was that the technicians aggresively scratch your head so hard. It felt like my skin was being torn off. Quite painful ever after asking for softer force. It was not pleasant nor relaxing at all. They shampoo twice and condition once and then blow dry your hair. They ask you to sit up to do some massaging on your shoulders. Then you are asked to sit in front of a mirror where they serve you cold water and finish blow drying. Then the 'spa' treatment is done and they start to clean up the room and ask you to change.. but they're still there and the door is also wide open to the public area. The technicians were nice people but they really need to reformat their spa style. I also noticed they had extremely long nails which I assumed they also work at the nail salon. This may be the reason why their head scratching hurts a lot.
