    Lumpy uneven thick. Not flush with my nail bed.

    Please do not visit Cali nail salon in Woodgrove Mall.  I went to the salon for a gel pedicure and a acarlic nail set. The nail technician I had was not friendly, hardly looked at me in the eye, and her technique was quite rough and sometimes painful. My gel polish on my toes is smudged which wasn'tfixed immediately. I didnt notice until the next day. The tech lacked care overall. I also wanted french fade acrylics, and she tried giving me natural polish and tried to say they were one in the same, which they aren't. I ended up with a 'chunky' tacky manicure very different than what I requested and way less than my expectations. It would be great if the nail technicians from this salon could keep up with current trends and styles, especially for the amount customers pay. I returned to the business to request a salon credit or refund and was told there were no refunds, there was no manager available to speak to, and all staff were rude, standoffish and unsympathetic or apologetic.  The nail technician that did my nails made a less than genuine attempt at offering to fix them, and told me to sit down and wait but she was already helping another client and I didn't want to take a chance and have her repeat the poor job she already had done.  I am not the first client who has been refused to refund, and the specialist has been reported to guest services at the mall as well as the Better Business Bureau.   They could not provide a policy on poor quality work. I will not be returning to the salon in the future.

    Right Foot - you can see the poorly applied polish, exposed edges of nail, smeared polish on toes

    I had a really disappointing experience at this nail salon. The middle-aged woman who did my pedicure didn't do a good job at all. The gel polish was applied unevenly, the right sides of my toenails didn't even get polish on them, and I left with bits of polish all around the edges of my toes. I certainly won't be returning to this place.

    Absolutely disgusting service. I went in for a fill a week ago (March 11) and asked for basic black shiny nails. As I was getting them done I told the lady that the UV light was not working and she shrugged it off and said it was dry. Spoiler alert- It wasn't. The polish was chunky and the application was ad as she missed 1/8th of my thumb when applying the polish. As I was in a rush, I paid for the service and left an appropriate tip. A fill was supposed to cost 25$, but I was somehow charged over $47 for basic black acrylics. The next day I noticed the polish was peeling due to it not getting cured in the UV light. This happened on two of my nails. In the days following TWO of my nails fell off leaving my actual nails to break. This was not due to strain on the nails, but due to not gluing them down properly. I went in for a refund today (March 18th) and was told that refunds were not given out and then they had the audacity to accuse me of purposely ripping off my nails. Never once was I offered even a slight apology. Incredibly upset as this nail service cost me $51.98 and I am left with 6 nails left. I wouldn't pay a dime to go back there.

    2 days after gel application.

    $16. True, they speak another language and there was a definite language barrier, but at least there was no pressure to chat the whole time eit

    I specifically booked a 90 minute appointment at The Nail Lounge to have my nails filled with…read moresomeone I felt had more experience. I had a special event that night and I wanted my nails to look good. The morning I arrived at 8:45 for my 9am appointment I was contacted through text by the salon owner, Jennifer. She explained that my technician couldn't be there due to reasons beyond her control and that a different technician could replace her at 9:30. My appointment went from 9:20 until 10:20, however, I was still charged for 90 minutes for a poor rushed job. I paid $110. I would've said something while I was there but I didn't get to really look at them until I got home. The chrome on my nails is already chipping on the ends, the French tips aren't on the whole nail and I could already tell the same day that some of them will start lifting within a week. When I contacted Jennifer to express my dissatisfaction she was defensive and rude. She claimed that I was undercharged and stressed that the technician's child was very ill, that the change was beyond her control and they were doing the best they could under the circumstances. However, at no point did she offer to amend my bill to reflect the shorter appointment time, the inconvenience of the last-minute change or the sub-par nails. The threads I've attached to this review show my conversation with Jennifer, the owner of the salon who contacted me that morning. What I didn't mention in these threads included here is that this has actually happened more than twice at this salon with me. This is only the second time my appointment was ruined for a special occasion. The first time was for my prom when I had a similar experience with my appointment being moved. I think it's important people see Jennifer's true colours which are clearly reflected in the manner she speaks to me through text. I gave Jennifer the opportunity to make things right before moving onto Google reviews however I'm pretty sure she blocked me and that text wasn't delivered to her. See texts...

    Don't go here. They're rude and rushed. The owner is obnoxious. Engages in ageist treatment…read more Jennifer, the owner is rude and defensive to anyone that tells her they're not happy, especially younger customers who she thinks won't do anything about it.

Pedicure Pros: The massage chair was decent. The pedicure itself was fairly well done. Cons: The same water from clipping to massage was not changed. Yuck! Manicure - The clipping and trimming was ok but the polish was a disaster. I wanted regular polish but I think the prep given must have been for gel nails. The OPI polish seemed gloppy, would not dry, never really did, and the only option was a weak and rather dusty in-desk fan that had no effect. The polish smudged repeatedly even before I left the shop. I showed at least two employees. No resolution. It was like they had moved on and I had become an inconvenience. They were very dismissive. Hours later the polish was still gummy. I tried repeatedly to remove it the next day using nail polish remover but even it didn't work. My husband found a solvent in his workshop which took the top layers off but some kind of glue residue remains and my nails are still a mess. It was obvious there was no point in complaining further. They weren't interested. I'm pissed off and I won't be back.
