    Gel Nail polish on skin. Polish uneven at cuticle.

    BEWARE! They will try to upsell you and they WILL overcharge you! Do not go here!! I am calling the Better Business Bureau and reporting them! And as I look at reviews from 3 years ago, they haven't changed their ways AT ALL. The "apologetic" replies from the owner in the bad reviews are LIES. I don't know about all y'all, but I'm really tired of all the lies in this world. The place was empty when I walked in for my Sunday 1pm appt. 4 male technicians were sleeping in massage chairs. A female technician was sitting in a massage chair barefoot and eating. My nail technician came up to me, very friendly, and took me by the arm. "First time?" she asks. "Yes..." I say. Out of the gate, she tries to upsell my pedicure. She's relentless. Won't let it go. "You need the best pedicure!" She says. "No. ", I say. "I can only afford the $50 deluxe pedi". "Come on...", she says. "...it's only a few dollars more..." After about 7 tries, she finally stops. Then the gel manicure. "You should get DIP manicure", she says. "I don't want a DIP manicure", I say. "I'd have to come back to get it removed and I don't know when I'll have the time/chance to do so." She is EMPHATIC. "I won't charge you more for it. Same price as gel. Better for your nails!" She just won't stop. I finally give in. DIP it is. Then she proceeds to tell me how terrible my cuticles are. "Your cuticles are so DRY. But I still love you." Um, what? Yeah lady, I'm a barista and I live in Central OR. I know that. Why do you think I'm here. And you "still lovel me?? She notices my left forefinger is disfigured at the nail. "What is THAT. What happened." I wanted to say "None of your business" or "yeah - I'm quite aware that I have a disfigured fingernail, thank you very much". But to be polite, I tell her it's a scar from an accident I had when I was 2 years old. She continues to complain about my "terrible" cuticles and that she still loves while aggressively filing my nails with what seemed like a 40 grade sandpaper file. She continues to berate me for my dry cuticles until the end of the manicure. An important note: I grew my nails out for this manicure. I told her to just file them and keep the shape I had. Now they're round blobs and every nail is a different length. And now, back home, my cuticles are burning when under running water bc she drummeled them back so far. And there's polish on the skin around my toenails. Awesome. Also, throughout the whole process, she kept praising her work to me. "Look how CLEAN!" "Now your cuticles are good. They were terrible." I as ready to pay $95 plus tip for my gel manicure & gel pedi. She charged me $174. I felt gaslit and taken advantage of. Never again.

    I hate leaving bad reviews but this place was a disappointment. My friend and I went in - I requested a shellac mani and she had a deluxe pedi. It depends on who your tech is but my lady rushed the whole process and sped through everything in an unprofessional manner. I don't mind things being fast, but she didn't shape my nails, she didn't apply anything evenly (they are so thick) and there is polish all over my skin. She also did a single fast swipe over all 5 fingers at the same time for my cuticle oil at the end. When she gave me a "hand massage" she slapped in lotion and didn't massage it in all the way. She also didn't finish curing my nails all the way. At the end when I was paying, i noticed she charged me for a full acrylic set when it was a shellac manicure. I'm just so disappointed and it looks worse than when I take my time at home to do my own gel mani. I hate that I saved my money to get my nails done (I haven't done this in over 4 years) and this to be the case Also if you look at the reviews- a lot of the 5 star ones are bots / use the same pics.

    I got a pedicure and a full set and was thrilled with my services! I did not get the name of the guy who did my pedicure but it was great! My full set turned out exactly how I wanted and they helped me decide my colors! Danny did my acrylics and they were great!

    Acrylic removal

    DO NOT GO HERE. I've consistently received very rude service, but have gone back as they are one of the easier places in town to get into. This most recent time they were removing my acrylics and ripped off multiple pieces of my fingernails. Half of my thumb nail is just flapping. The nail tech did not offer any anti-septic's or and sanitizer to clean up the wounds. This place is known for being very pushy, and unwelcoming, which I can usually deal with. Todays service though was unacceptable.

    just french tips, $120 later....

    appalled is an understatement! the tech was going back and forth between another customer and i and what was supposed to be a 45 min appointment turned into an hour and a half! also charged me for services i didnt even get chrome, a hot towel, oil etc, a full set ($55) for 120 is actually ridiculous, and couldn't even argue because they kept changing the subject. full set with french tips is 120?!? no

    horrible service, my nails looked horrible and uneven and i was charged $100 for very small, poorly done nails

    This salon seems to get a lot of bad reviews and after having visited for 3 acrylic sets so far I have to say that I completely disagree. When they're busy you may wait for a little while longer, but John is HILARIOUS and makes the wait worth it. And he takes the time to make sure the nail shape is always perfect which I so appreciate. They're funny and have a good time in the salon!

    My Halloween nails! It was $6 for one nail art per hand.

    See all

    Terrible pedicure. Made me bleed and did a poor job on every detail. I will make sure to not cancel with my regular gal in the future.

    Oh my goodness where do I start?! I made an appointment for…read morea facial because of other excellent reviews and I was NOT disappointed! First, the space is beautiful, it's comfortable and not the "hip sterile environment" that a lot of spas go for (don't get me wrong, it's incredibly clean!). Both ladies were very kind and welcoming as soon as I walked in the door. Jill was very attentive and her bubbly personality is sincere and is so refreshing. I had a deluxe facial and loved every minute! This is by far the best facial I've had! I was so relaxed I could hardly believe it. Her technique is on point and the products she used left my skin feeling and looking amazingly fresh. I will definitely be coming in for regular facials! Thank you Jill!

    I have struggled to find someone in Bend that does Brazilian's, and does them well. I'm happy to…read moresay, the search has ended. Thank you, thank you, Jill!! I've moved around a great deal and have always utilized this type of service. Thus, I've had plenty of experience (sugar, hard, cloth strips, tweezing...all that fun stuff). It seems that most of those "waxing" in Bend, use hard wax versus wax with cloth strips. The end result (in my experience) has been it takes longer (one must wait for the wax to harden), it leaves more wax residue (ugh...), it doesn't pull out the hair as well (I was told it works better for those "hard to get" areas...meh!), and really isn't any more comfortable (I've been told it's not supposed to hurt as much...there's just no getting past that part). Luckily, Jill uses cloth strips (what I'm used to, and has always seemed to work the best) and I must say....there was not one bit of waxy residue and there wasn't a single stray hair to be found. I was in and out in a jiffy and couldn't be happier. I can't recommend Jill highly enough! If a Brazilian is what you're looking for...well....this is the place!
