Overall a good experience with a couple of minor issues…read more One, I got here at 2:15 on a weekday. There was only one person getting a manicure and the salon was quiet. Guy at front grabs the gel color swatches and hands to me then directs me to a pedicure chair in the back. I have never been here before so the process was new. A cute older lady was setting up the chair for me and did most of the pedicure treatment. She didn't seem to speak much English but pointed to the pedicure price menu. She also showed me the volcano pedi menu hoo wee that would be a real treat for a special occasion but too rich for my blood. I had gel that needed to be removed and I get it that it is a bit time consuming. But daaaang the pedicure and mani took FOREVER. I appreciate a nail place taking time to have attention to detail and not rushing but this was a very long mani pedi. When the polish was removed the guy from the front took over. He smelled so strongly of cigarette smoke it was a bit of a turnoff. He did however make sure I was happy with the selection of gel color and explained that the confetti gel was clear. And that I might want a solid color under it so I chose white. It was a good choice and I am very happy with the gel color. He also shaped my fingernails very nicely. The color was applied very carefully and I have had a lot of compliments. What wasn't that great in the visit besides the long a$$ time was he cut me a few times with a very sharp tool. Near the end of the pedi he pressed down on the cut with a towel and said he has cut me and will put medicine on it. He put some white cream on the cut. The lady had also nicked me, which was disappointing. The other not so great thing was at the end when I was paying. I gave the guy a cash tip and paid for the service on a card. I was getting my keys out to leave and the guy asked if I wanted him to split the tip with the lady? What? Is that a passive aggressive way to say I needed to give another tip to the lady as well? It was a bit rude and a turnoff. Overall the gel was very nice but such a long time to get done especially when I was the only customer there most of the time.

Background for understanding: I get pedicures every month…read moreand have been to various salons. I can say this was by far the WORST experience I have ever had. I have chronic ingrown toenails, and like to get them removed with a pedicure. I go every month as to stay on top of them. This is the first time I have been to this salon, but will not returning. First Impressions: I went in with gel on my toes already from my last service, so the lady had to scrape it off. That's not unusual and have had it done before by other artists. However this lady roughly scraped the gel off as she squeezed the hell out of my toes. It hurt so much I cried twice. She wasn't empathetic in the slightest. Besides that the lady was on her phone the entire time and was generally rough with her movements. For example, she ripped off the toe hugger things at the end and said "We are done now. I'll check you out at the front". It was the tone and just everything else that made it a terrible experience. Service: I got the "CALLUS TREATMENT SUGAR SCRUB PEDICURE". I got this treatment to specifically target my heels. They were by no means super cracked, I just wanted softer feet. Tell me how I ended up still leaving with dry feet and rough heels. I also have excess skin around my cuticles that should have been taken care of. I should of just got the basic pedicure so I could have paid less. PROS: Atmosphere - Nice comfortable chairs, clean salon, tvs Conclusion: Overall the salon was clean and has potential to be a really good spot. I think this lady just sucked at her job. I don't like being a Karen and don't leave bad reviews if I don't like something. However this was so bad I don't want anyone to experience what I did.

There are 8 pedicure chairs in the back of this salon. Appears to be about 7 manicure stations. The staff have been very nice. The man speaks very good English and my first time here he did an excellent pedicure for me. The building itself is very old and they didn't seem to do much with the front entrance display space. It does not look like much when you are walking past on the street. It's a great downtown location. My cousin recommended this place which is why I thought I'd try it. Prices pretty average with a basic pedicure starting at $30. Gel (no-chip) polish is an extra $15. Hot stone add-on is $10. I haven't had a gel manicure as I prefer to do my own gel, but I had them remove my old gel polish. I have also recently had a gel manicure and pedicure, and am glad I called for an appointment that day because they started getting very busy. The manicure was nice, lots of glittery gel polish to choose from.
