Im not from this area so I asked a friend where to go to get a nice pedicure. I called and made appointment and during appointment I explained I wanted my "big" toe fixed. My big toe breaks all the time and it catches on socks so I have to have it fixed. . My large toe nails are both broken/half there.
When I get there I explain I had an appointment. Yeah yeah! I had booked the appointment with a lady. So the man at a station come over. I explained about what I need for the two toes. I said I can show you photo. No no, I fix.
Then I get my feet in the water. I ask, how much. They had me just a chart of scents. I ask again. No, there is no price. She states $45.00 I said, is that with the acrylics on the toe. Yes yes. He gets started. I notices he is drilling all my toes. So I mention. I just wanted the big toes acrylic the rest just polished. He just keeps going. While doing the cuticle work he nips me pretty good and draws blood. I understand that can happen. I said nothing. (My nails had nothing on them. I had not had polish on in months) no reason to SAND the toe nails. He then proceeds as normal. Then he slaps on the acrylic. And only does the part that is missing. I'm like, that doesn't look right. He must be gonna let it dry. They he does the other toe the same way. He never brings the acrylic down on the whole toe. He lightly sand it but doesn't buff it, I'm like hmmm. Then he starts to put polish on, no base coat! Then proceeds to polish all the nails. I'm like, hey..: these toes are bumpy, they didn't understand. I said lumpy. Lady tells him. He snaps in his native language that he wasn't finished. She tells me he wasn't finished. Like, that's odd he is polishing the nail. She said, he will make right. He continues to paint my toes. I say, it's still very lumpy cuz you didn't do the whole toe. He then proceeds to just FILL in with Polish. I say, now you know that is not right and it's not gonna dry. He still is trying to get my other toe to stop bleeding. Uggg, so I decide that I'm just not gonna tip him well. When I go to leave she says $50. I said, you told me $45 plus he filled in my acrylic with polish. She just looks at me. I noticed I didn't have the right change I had her $60 and she says "thank you" I say. No no you owe me $10 and then I will tip. She says, NO CHANGE. I'm like, wtf! Now mind you, I'm not one to usually speak up, I let people walk all over me I'm told. So again I said. No I would like my change. The man who did my pedicure shouts BYE!
So no, I will not go back and I'm gonna yell at my friend for recommending this
One positive is the place did seem very clean. read more
