I have NEVER written a YELP REVIEW in my LIFE!! I HAD to write one for the SAKE of OTHERS. I had the WORST experience EVER at a Nail Salon.
******My Experience with MIMI TRAN******
IT was 5:46pm, after an EXHAUSTING day, I was really looking forward treating myself to getting my nails done! I asked for the SPA mani/pedi, but they asked if I could get the REGULAR one instead because it would be FASTER. I agreed.
MIMI TRAN sat me down and saw I had previous GEL on my nails. She goes to the back, and comes back with a bowel of what looks like PURE ACETONE and tells me to DIP my hands into the cold solution (NOT WHAT I'M USED TO). I could see the SKIN on my FINGERS turn WHITE and DRY. But I thought, MIMI TRAN must know what she's doing. Then, she uses her own FINGER NAIL to SCRAPE off the old POLISH. And again, she dips my FINGERS back into the ACETONE SOLUTION. She does this THREE times. My fingers are DRY. I notice all of the previous polish has NOT been removed. I think to myself, maybe she's not done, she'll get to it. She then begins to puts lotion on my hands and starts to prep my fingers for the nail polish. I pick my hand up to inspect my fingers further and MIMI TRAN tells me, "Put your hand down." I reply, "Waite, I'm just looking." This seems to UPSET her, as she states "They're FINE!". I point out where she had MISSED a few spots. MIMI TRAN FORCEFULLY grabs my hands, places them into the ACETONE SOLUTION, and begins to SCRAPE each one of my nail beds again with her FINGER NAIL.
I have a PASSIVE personality and am NOT usually one to say something. But MIMI TRAN was being VERY RUDE. So I told her, "If you keep treating me like this, I will get up and LEAVE." She nods her head in agreement and continues to work on my hands.
Due to the fact that she was upset, she cleaned the skin around my fingers a bit ROUGH, it HURT a little, but I didn't say anything thinking that it could just be me.
I also had to ASK her to CLEAN under my nails (you would THINK this would be an AUTOMATIC step to the MANICURE PROCESS!!).
I was her last client. MIMI TRAN takes her tip, puts her tools away, and leaves. Mind you, I SWEAR TO THIS!! SHE DID NOT CLEAN her TOOLS!! Or place them in any sort of SOLUTION!! Instead, she just CAPPED them and PLACED them BACK in her BIN. I'll write a follow up review to this one if I end up getting any sort of FUNGAL INFECTION.
ON top of all of this, When I get home, my FINGERS HURT and STING as I wash my hands! I look at them CLOSELY and notice I have SIX SMALL CUTS around my FINGERS.

Dear MIMI TRAN,
I'm not sure if you are new at your job, or just burnt out at what you do. I hope you take this review as a way to improve on your quality of service towards others. I hope you PROVE ME WRONG with future client's by becoming BETTER at what you do AND the WAY you do it!! I have hope that YOU CAN BE BETTER THAN THIS!!! Be the best you, you can possibly be for this world!! Don't let your emotions get the best of you!! GRAB THEM BY THE BALLS AND SHOW THEM WHO'S BOSS!! Good luck to a better you. read more
