This time some started to peel within days. I wanted them to last till Halloween so i went back to get that rectified but wanted a jelly pedicure n that was awesome. But when i mentioned the finger nail peels n showed them to her, Annie's face (the owner) changed from :) to :( i told her that im no expert but i think it was incorrect to file the edges after the top coat was applied because top coat seals everything n prevents peeling. Close to the final stage of top of the line pedicure, Annie came up to the chair armed with the nail lamp n stripper. She stripped the affected peeled parts only. Then she applied the dust n applied lamp heat. U can still see the peels under the poor excuse of rectifications. Half ass done to a $60 manicure. I tip very well for my vanity privileges. I also recalled having my nails done at the pedicure chair when i wanted a regular polish. When fingernails are shaped n painted while in a pedicure chair, it doesnt give good results. When u are a service business, u will get unsatisfied customers. Practice giving sincere apologies even if u question in your mind that the customer may have caused the bad nail polish results. Annie doesnt apologize. U see her :) when customers arent troublesome. I guarantee u that no one wants to b troublesome but i paid for top of the line pedicure AND manicure. I expect the BEST. DEFINITELY WONT GO BACK. No loss to her im sure.

EDIT: so, just a heads up (and I've attached the screenshots) the owner of this place is out of her…read moremind. She obviously can't take criticism, and will resort to harassment if she doesn't agree with your review. I have talked to other Yelpers who have had the same experience. This is completely unacceptable from ANY business owner or person. If I didn't like this place before, I absolutely HATE it now. Save your money for one of the MUCH better and much more professional nail salons in Des Moines. This place is a joke. Yeah, I gave this place another shot and I just can't do it. The first time I came, the woman doing my nails seemed really peeved and annoyed. She was very aggressive with how she did my nails, and when she waxed my eyebrows (which are naturally thick) she kept pointing out how thick they were. I told her that's how I liked them, and would just like a little clean up. Instead she made them INCREDIBLY thin, and not to mention uneven. I've never had such a bad eyebrow wax in my life! I also got a pedicure the first time I went in. The manager (I think that's who he was) sat down and started talking to me. At first I thought this was just a nice gesture. Ended up being him telling me my husband (who is a pilot) probably cheats on me, and I on him (I'm a flight attendant). Uhhh... Thanks? Even though completely inappropriate, I've just moved to the area and hoped I just had a bad first experience, so I decided to come back for a fill.. Bad idea. The manager was actually nice this time and kept his inappropriate comments to himself, so I felt a little bit better coming back. But I did have the same nail lady. Even more rude, even more aggressive, and even more nasty than the first time. I asked her if I could look at the gel colors. She threw the basket at me then started telling me to pick from the selection she had at her desk... Um, can't you just get up and grab the color I actually want? I don't recommend coming here at all. I am a very loyal customer when I receive good service, but I think this was my last time here.
