went for my first time at this salon on Mother's Day. I made an appointment online. the appointment booking online was complicated on picking what to get because no details on what each offer was.
First thing was there was no host so whoever was doing nails, had to stop in the middle of his clients to attend the desk, I thought that was annoying, especially for his clients, leaving middle of getting their nails done. (first red flag)
second, I noticed they are under staffed so I wanted 40 minutes after my scheduled appointment, to actually have someone get started on my pedicure.
-note: I scheduled for a deluxe pedicure and manicure, as well as wax for eyebrows and upper lip.
Thirdly, I was not offered any water or any beverage, yet elder ladies were offered. What I noticed is that the wine was being served in plastic clear party cups and not glass, so they did me a solid by not offering to me. ( second red flag)
Fourth, with my pedicure, she rushed through, I scheduled for a deluxe milk & honey, for polished I wanted gel for French tips. It came out nice but I asked for color for base and white tips and she didn't do color that I wanted, just the basic light pink nude, which is not what I asked.
the deluxe pedicure treatment was rushed and I believe she forgot I had even ordered that and did lotion last minute and did a hot towel and took the towel off while it was still warm. For me it seemed like she wanted me out the chair to get to the waiting clients. I tried having conversation during the service and it seemed like she just didn't want to be there and was overwhelmed to get through clients.
I was told to sit at the pedi chair for a few minutes so they can have someone do my manicure. I waited 30 minutes.
Now to the manicure, She was nice and held a conversa a little but it's okay. I suggested the color I originally wanted for my toes, to be for my pedi and she suggested to just do the same for my toes to match and she let me know that since I'm doing white tip it'll be easier that way. (I was not happy about that, and even tried to convince her to do what I requested and instead she continued to do what she wanted to do). I wasn't asked if I wanted a set or acrylic or anything, she only asked me what shape I wanted and I said almond and from there she shaped my natural nails. She used gel, she didn't ask if that's what I wanted. But I wanted gel anyway so that was fine, I just wish she would have asked instead of starting full send on my natural nails.
She was the same person that did my upper lip wax and eyebrow wax. She admitted to taking off more than she wanted and she just stopped from there. She only cleaned up my brows, & didn't shape or anything.
In summary, I honestly DON'T recommend going here unless its The only place you can go to for a quick nail fix.
The Pricing is crazy. I got man and pedicure both with gel and white tips to make fresh tips. NATURAL nails (nothing added) and the upper lip wax and eyebrow wax.
GUESS how much it all cost. Remind you this is Mother's Day, scheduled appointment.
If you guessed LESS THAN $150, you're WRONG. It cost me $197 for something I could have done at home.
For it being Mother's Day and I just wanted to get out of there with no problems with the staff and make a scene with clients that are there for their Mother's Day ,I asked to speak to someone and the "host" came and brushed me away and said to pay so he can go back to his client. I paid the ridiculous amount and went home.
Again, if you're looking for a rushed environmenT, techs that's basically choose for you instead of doing what you're requesting that you're paying for and a place that servers beverages in clear plastic party cups instead of glass for wine, then this is the place for you.
Definitely won't be going back. read more
