I hate to be the first to post and not leave the best review :(…read more I found this place from searching a close nail salon and stalking their IG. Their nail art that they do is so pretty you can tell that the technicians that achieve this definitely know their stuff. It's such a pretty salon. I came in just wanting the signature mani + pedi ($65) and just a classic mani and a classic french tips on my toes no shellac. It was good and relaxing. But halfway through, my technician changed and the next technician who took over put shellac on my toes - she was pretty much done so if I was to change they'd have to do it all again, so I got charged $20 extra. When the technician did my manicure it was quick, clean and perfect except where the nail polish was already splitting on my thumb. The original technician went somewhere so I asked another lady who was free if she could just fix that part and she looked so annoyed at me and did not say much to the point I felt bad for asking her after that :( When I left I just got stared down and no one said thank you or goodbye :( My mani also wasn't put under UV/led lighting so by the time I left to walk to my car it was already pressed and smudged -_- one finger and one toenail has already chipped/ and the skin around my nails hurt this morning too. I'm not the type to rule off a place so I'd try that place again another time but definitely different hospitality than what I've had previously in America where you know they definitely deserve their tips, won't let you leave unless your nails look perfect as well as do an awesome job.

But now having experienced this teams level of precision and attention to detail during a recent manicure, I can understand why I will often walk past and see the store full with ladies treating themselves. $35 bought me a shellac manicure which, compared to CBD counterparts, comes in as cheap as chips. And yet, as I mentioned above, the dedicated and detail taken was better than some I've paid more for. My nail technician took what looked like painstaking detail to ensure the polish was just right, rounding the nail bed with a small paint brush to ensure none of the colour went "outside the lines". The atmosphere was calm and a complimentary bottle of water offered. They might take a little longer but it's worth it, in my opinion.

I treated myself to a half hour Reflexology session ($30) and then the Classic Pedicure ($50), and was in there for over an hour and a half! Sole Indulgence is a home based business, however the treatment room is very professional looking and it's a very quiet area, so it was very peaceful in the room. It's only just down the road from the Aspley Coles Supermarket, but you don't have to battle shopping centre parking at Sole Indulgence. There's a parking space in the driveway for customers and plenty of street parking. The room is clean and professional looking, and the chair is specially for foot treatments - you lay back, with the chair supporting your lower back and your feet are elevated. This chair is soooo comfortable, before Carolyn even touched my feet, I was feeling relaxed and could have totally fallen asleep. She started with the reflexology, which was a soothing massage. I was so relaxed, I almost dozed a couple of times. I had mentioned an occasional sore shoulder and she said she could feel it in my feet, but also some neck pain on the other side - which is actually true, I often get pain in my left side of my neck if I sleep on that side! The pedicure was a much gentler experience then some of those Nail bars/foot spas in shopping centres. There was no cheese-grater used on my heels, rather it was gently buffed off. As Carolyn also works at The Podiatry Point in Stafford, all of her pedicure equipment is sterilised and individually packaged. So no sharing nail clippers between customers! The products used at Sole Indulgence are all chemical-free where possible and certified organic essential oils in the creams. I will definitely be going back to Sole Indulgence again on a regular basis. My feet look and feel fantastic and the prices are very reasonable for the level of service you're getting. Appointments can be made Tuesday, Thursday and Friday between 9am-5pm, late night on Thursdays until 7pm. Saturday morning too by appointment only. Currently they don't have EFTPOS or credit card facilities but you can pay by direct deposit, or cash.

I explained it was the more gentle method and one replied "It takes too long". I said I don't mind. She began to roughly file my nails, wrap them and kept stating "this is the same thing!" If you are a nail tech, you should be more knowledgable about the damage of acetone soaking. A few of the techs stood there talking about it and laughing. Pretty poor customer service. If it's a problem, then don't agree to provide the service. The tech who did the shellac toes was also rough and I have a high pain tolerance. To the guy who took his time doing my acrylic overlay, thank you. He was professional, courteous and knowledgable. It's a shame the rest of the team acted so poorly and potentially put people off coming back. Nobody wants to feel bullied and have to pay for it.

I'm not sure what exactly is American about American Nails, but it's a valid option if you're at…read moreChermside and feel like getting a manicure or pedicure. It's very similar to a lot of the Asian run nail salons around (places like Professionail for example) so as usual you will come out with nicely polished nails. I find that thing that sets these numerous nail salons apart from each other is not the end result but the experience you have during your time in the store. Usually when you arrive for a mani or pedi, you will be asked to pick the colour of nail polish you want applied. Like most places, American Nails has a rack of polishes on the wall at the back full of so many colours that you'll immediately be paralysed by choice. Some nail salons have legit colours, others keep the bottles of good nail polish brands like OPI and top them up with cheaper polish when they're empty. I suppose they expect that no one will notice, but if you're a frequent buyer ad wearer of nail polish you will notice because the names on the bottles won't match the colour that you know it's meant to be. American Nails is guilty of this little trick, but to be honest so many places are that although it does disappoint me a little it doesn't tend to deter me. The next part of your experience will the the mani or pedi itself, and what characterises this is how long the staff spend perfecting your nails. A good mani or pedi will take at least fifteen minutes during which not only will your cuticles be fixed and nails filed, buffed, polished, and top-coated but your hands and forearms (or feet and legs in the case of a pedi) will be moisturised and massaged which is nice and relaxing. Some nail salons really rush things and basically all they've done is quickly filed and painted your nails. American Nails falls somewhere in between these two poles, and it depends on the time of day and who you get. American Nails is definitely an example of a fairly typical nail salon and you will leave with pretty fingers and toes and the experience won't have been amazing nor terrible.
