3-stars for the product/s used, 5 for the facility and people. This shellac sh*t sucks! This is the 2nd manicure that's used shellac, in-turn with the 1st shellac manicure tying as the worst I've ever had! (Late to the manicure party - particularly the gel-kind - I've still had several dozen manicures over the years. There've been issues here and there, but nothing like the outcome from the use of this shellac sh*t.) Should I get another manicure in this area I will be specific in seeking a place that does NOT use the product.
My nails were done on a Wednesday afternoon (and they were super-cute!) By Saturday afternoon I was back in getting my chipped index finger fixed. Sunday my other index finger chipped. In less than a weeks time I had chips in 4 nails (not including the index fingers). One week and one day in the polish lifted and peeled on both middle fingers. (The silver lining, I suppose: I wasn't flipping you off! I was showing you my defective manicure...) I'm guessing I COULD have gone back for the other index finger to be fixed, but not having had this as my experience (with the exception of the prior months shellac sh*t manicure) I was sensitive to calling back.
No reflection on the facility or the people. The facility is clean, bright, and cheery with ample parking. The people are friendly, attentive, and fun/funny. Their prices are in-line with other salons. The problem is the only option they have for manicures is with the shellac sh*t. Thus, short of their coming up with other gel offerings, I won't get another manicure with them... :(
Did I mention shellac gel S*CKS?! K. It does. End of story. read more
