Pedicure Experience at Candy Kiss Nail Salon - Not Recommended
I wanted to share my recent experience at Candy Kiss Nail Salon in our area. I went in for a Russian pedicure, hoping to try something new. It doesn't include polish, but it's marketed as a hygienic $60+tax. I assumed it being $20-$30 more than a most places in this area for a basic pedicure without polish that it would be 100% better.
This sounded perfect since I was just looking for a relaxing, clean-up pedicure after wearing sandals for a few days.
I'll admit my feet weren't in perfect shape when I arrived a bit dry and slightly dirty from summer sandals but nothing extreme. I voiced that I expected a thorough clean and some good dead skin removal.
Unfortunately, that's not what I received.
* They did remove dead skin, which I appreciated.
* However, I had to ask the technician to redo parts of the pedicure because my feet and nails still didn't look clean -- especially under the nails.
* I clearly asked them NOT to cut my nails short, and instead to just clean underneath. But she went ahead and cut them down so much that my nail beds were exposed now I'm left with some discomfort and sensitivity.
* I went home and simply washed my feet with soap, and the difference was immediate. It proved that the issue wasn't "deep cracks" like they claimed it just wasn't cleaned properly.
After reaching out to them via email to express my concerns and request any kind of refund, they responded saying it would take multiple pedicures to clean my feet properly because they were too dirty and the cracks were too deep if they went any further it would cause harm (which isn't true) and that they had done a "100% satisfactory" job.
This experience was disappointing I went in for a self-care treat and left feeling frustrated, with sore toes and still dirty feet.
I have never experienced this type of pedicure before at any other salon and so I will not be returning.
I don't recommend Candy Kiss Nail Salon, especially if you're looking for a quality pedicure with attention to detail and proper hygiene.
On that note does anyone have a great local pedicure spot they love and trust? I'm looking for new recommendations! read more
