The thing with natural nail care (as well as many other nail bars), is that when they're not busy your nails will look fabulous, but when they are busy your nails can get massacred.
The first couple of times I had visited natural nail care my experience was amazing. James, the nail technician took good care of me, made sure my nails were perfect and even gave me a little discount. However the third and FINAL time I visited James his service was terrible. This is due to James being the only nail technician on this particular day and still trying to be fully booked. He would book women in twenty minute space slots resulting in him rushing my nails. Each nail was of different thickness, the nail didn't reach the side of my natural nail resulting in it being exposed under the fake nail. He drilled my natural nails down so much that 6months later they are still struggling to grow.
I asked him if my nail varnish was opaque (not see through) and he nodded. However my nail varnish was very clear. But that is small matters. I also asked if I could have a jesus' cross on one of the nails which he had forgotten about and ended up having to do the cross while my nails were drying and another client was in his chair. James decided to try and do it free hand resulting in a very wobbly cross.
I was Dissapointed in the overall service. My nails looked nothing like what I imagined. I asked very politely if he could take the cross off and change the nail varnish to an opaque one like I asked but he said he would take the cross off and leave the nail varnish. I know what it Is like making sure the customer is always right as I am a makeup artist myself. And even though I was as polite as possible. It still resulted in James talking about me with his client which my little sister of 9 Years old witnessed and told me about.
My advice is If you're going to go to natural nail care GO WHEN ITS QUIET do not go on a Friday a Saturday or a Sunday
my Nails are ridged and damaged and don't think I'll ever be able to wear fake nails again. read more
