So I went to city nails on Friday. The blonde haired woman greeted me. She was super friendly and nice! I explained I wanted a fill in. The blonde nice woman proceeds to saw off my previous gel polish. Then, Mimi, the only person there that evening to do nails, (I'm not sure if anyone else does acrylics there) does mine. Blonde lady tells her I wanted fill in. Mimi demanded I get a new set and starts clipping my nails that are well grown out as it was and sawing them away. Trust me if I had a chance to say no about her not filling in my nails I would've. She ripped my pinky nail off and said these are too old you need a new set. So there I was with a pinky finger missing I wasn't about to not let her fix it now. Then she took an unused nail from her nail tip box and started prying my nails off. She put the tip back in the box so who's to say how many other people she didn't use that on. It was so painful and she knew it too. I told her this hurt. She offered halfway through the process to soak them and I was like no thanks you've already done this much. So she puts on my new tips, pre glues my nails even before measuring my nail beds. She doesn't ask me for my preferred length, she just starts clipping them off right to the finger tip. Her acrylic technique was very wet and sloppy, and she wasn't taking her time. AT ALL. It was a rushed process from start to finish. Mimi insulted my small hands and nail beds. She insulted how small I was in size as well. Moving on to the blonde from the beginning. She finishes me with my choice of gel polish. Like I said before, she is nice so I am leaving her out of the mess. I liked her color and she was very nice and complimented me when I told her the things Mimi had said. She asked my thoughts and I said well I like the color. I said I'm not crazy about my nails at all though. I went in thinking I was gonna spend maybe $55 maximum because I wanted a fill and polish change, but I left with a new set and gel polish, UNHAPPY and broke lol. $60 is my total, and I know $5 more dollars.. I am not a Karen, I'll spend $100.00 just do a good job... And Mimi was shocked when the blonde told her I only gave $60 with no tip. The pictures are of my nails. I mean my nails could be a lot worse but looking closer to them they are bubbled, well over my nail beds, and behind the nails were not filed so I have lots of jagged pieces through got hardened by acrylic and the gel polish the pieces scratch my face and my scalp when I'm doing anything. If you like the business that's fine, but I just will not be going back. If you had seen my nails I had gotten in before from Tammy's nails, you would be sobbing too because these are just awful. Go at your own risk I guess. read more
