So I am updating my review and for the person who responded to me saying "I am infamous for asking for my money back at nail salons" YOU ARE RIGHT because they are INFAMOUS FOR COERSING YOU INTO GETTING MORE AND MORE SHIT DONE THAT YOU DON'T NEED!! So to answer your question, I WILL STOP ASKING FOR MY MONEY BACK WHEN THEY START LISTENING AND STOP SELLING ME SHIT I DON'T WANT!!! It's SOOOOOO ANNOYING having to argue with these technicians and repeatedly say "No thank you, no I'm fine, no thanks!" SERIOUSLY!?! NO MEANS NO! Then it's "why not...will look so good..." Until it's like "fine just do it already so I can go-to sleep!!!"
If you like this kind of bullying agressive treatment because your some kind of manicurist masochist or can say NO!! 100x then this is the place for you! However, if you are looking to relax and just get what you asked for this isn't the place!
I don't disagree, Nancy is very talented my nails looked exceptional for about 8 hrs while I was sleeping!! But I am looking for quantity with quality in my nail investments given that I paid $60 more than I budgeted!! She is also a nice person, this isn't a personal attack on her at all. I simply just do not like that she sold me something I didn't want or that my nails logistically could not support. It made no sense, but I trusted her and it went way wrong, at my expense! It is NOT A SCAM to gauruntee your craftsmanship, it's called CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.
So I will continue to share my experience to help out anyone, especially my sister SMILFs out there, who need a quick nice affordable manicure for a possible date night that may or may not EVER happen! SO IF THIS ISNT YOUR LIFE THIS REVIEW ISNT FOR YOU - STEP ASIDE!!
However, if you value your time, money and return on your investments, given we are now paying $5 a gallon for gas and $100 for fin fake nails now, THIS REVIEW IS FOR YOU - PLEASE READ ON...
So although I would still highly recommend NOT getting this type of nail system put on your nails because it was excessively painful and is now completely fused to my really paperthin actual nails. I have gone to 3 salons and either they don't know how to take it off or they won't do it which lends itself to the conclusion that this is one of two things, 1. A system that is outdated and only Nancy knows how to do, clever business retention strategyBTW, or 2. It is no longer advised for use some reason.
Either way it kind of forces you to only use her, if you fall for the COERSING like I did, and want to keep it. Here is the downside of that strategy, your stuck NEVER GETTING AN APPOINTMENT AGAIN!! Or having to book 3 weeks ahead of time! I came to Nancy because she is the BEST and highly recommended, but I waited 3 weeks to get this appointment to then have to go-to the ER and loose my nail!! I requested my money back because I couldn't go back and have it fixed without risking a Staph Infection since my real nail that she fused to this "fiberglass-"like material was completely ripped off and bleeding for several days on end! You don't go back and get that fixed you get immediate medical attention and pray you by-pass infection!! Which I did! Because I got Px antibiotic ointment!
My point is this, THE JUICE WAS NOT WORTH THE SQUEEZE!! And ANY NAIL SALON THAT CONTINUES TO DO THIS KIND OF SHIT TO PEOPLE NEEDS TO FULLY REFUND THEM...PERIOD!! (insert SCAM here) because these salons overhead is very low and up these products are relatively inexpensive. Trying to find out the product information on my own for my follow up Dr appointment. I found this product on Amazon...(see pic) for $45 a container. She must use this one container on over 100 people at $85 dollars a pop that is over 400% profit!! But I'm the ASSHOLE HERE? Huh?!
Now I agree we are then paying for Nancy's ability - talent, if you will, which then brings me back to the craftsmanship, which was EXCELLENT I WON'T DENY THAT, however it wasn't withstanding. Her inability to make a good determination about these materials against the condition of my nails was imperative and did not happen, thus I didn't get what I actually paid for did I?!
All that being said, I am happy to report that Sun Nails has FINALLY HIT THE MARK, took accountability for their mistake, and fully refunded me my money! Gather round Millennials - That is what we once called "Customer Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back!" And it is still very effective!
Now, even though I didn't like the lack of judgement on Nancy's part to do this foreign Build A Gel System on my nails, I can feel better knowing I didn't pay tenfold for it! So now I AM VERY SATISFIED! And would again, reccomend Nancy to anyone - if you can get an appointment BUT would stay away from the Build A Gel System, unless you have time for all the above-mentioned.
GREAT JOB SUN NAILS FOR PUTTING THE MONEYBACK BACK INTO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION - WELL-DONE! For this you get read more
