I've been going to this salon consistently for the past four months, and I want to give an honest, balanced review based on my full experience.
At the beginning, I absolutely loved this place. The prices are reasonable, they often run great discounts, and my first few dip powder sets were amazing. My nails lasted a full month each time with no chips, cracks, or lifting. I was really impressed and felt like I had found my go-to salon.
Unfortunately, my most recent visit was very different. The application process changed -- specifically, a gel topcoat was not used like before. Instead, a regular topcoat was applied and air-dried. I didn't request anything different, so I assumed it was standard, but the results did not hold up. Within two weeks, multiple nails cracked, and the integrity of the dip was noticeably weaker. This has never happened to me with dip before, especially not this quickly.
I reached out to the salon to address the issue, and while they did offer to look at my nails, the only availability didn't align with my schedule. Since my nails were already breaking and needed to be removed immediately, I had to handle it myself at home.
What's disappointing is not just the outcome, but the inconsistency. When a service starts off strong and then declines without explanation, it makes it hard to trust the quality moving forward. As a repeat customer, I expected a more consistent experience or at least clearer communication if the process was being done differently.
Overall, this salon has potential -- the pricing and initial quality were great -- but consistency is key in services like this. Because of this experience, I won't be returning. read more
