I stopped in here rather than my usual place in my neighborhood because I was on the other side of town. Wow, do I regret it. It took over an hour and a half to replace my gel nails and the technician did an awful job.
The nail polish near my cuticles is completely uneven, some polish coming up onto my skin. They argued with me saying that I had some sort of powder gel on my nails (which I've never done before) because they saw powder while removing my previous gels. I had to repeatedly tell her I didn't have powder until finally I told her exactly what previous color I had and she could identify that it wasn't powder. Super unprofessional.
My nails beds are ruined. I can bend my nails with the gel on them, which I've never experienced before. She filed them pretty rough with the dremel before painting them. I had told her I wanted round and she shaped them square until I reiterated I wanted round and pointed out how they looked square.
She didn't paint the sides of my nails and an area on my pinky nail. She didn't even check my nails when they were done! I took the tool right in front of her and started removing the paint from my skin because she said she was finished. It was so awkward that she could not do her job properly... I almost wonder if I was the first gel nails she's ever done since it took so long and was done so poorly.
They had told me it was $23 before I sat in the chair and charged me $25 when I went to pay. I didn't dispute it because I just wanted to get the heck out of there.
I've noticed most gel places charge around $30 so I thought when they told me $23 I was getting a deal. By this review you can obviously tell I regret this so called "deal".
I was really debating writing this review even after my boyfriend urged me to while I was fuming on our drive home, I prefer giving positive reviews over negative ones. Today (3 days later) my nail chipped, they are not as strong as they usually are with gel because they did and awful job and ruined my nails.
I would not recommend this place to anybody. I am never going back. I will only be paying the extra money and going to Unique Nails, where they do an impeccable job and THEY ASK YOU HOW YOU LIKE YOUR NAILS WHEN THEY FINISH THEM.
rant over. I've learned my lesson. read more
