I am very particular when it comes to getting my nails done. I grew up in another area of Houston, and had a wonderful nail salon that I went to for about 7 years. But, then I moved out here. I have tried several nail salons in the Eldridge and West Little York area, and have never been satisfied. As a matter of fact, I went for about 4 years without my nails done because I could not find anyone that I liked.
I was killing some time with a friend of mine, and we decided to give this little place a try, and I am so glad that I did. It was on a Saturday afternoon, and the nail technician was able to work us in. (I had got a full set of solar previously with another salon, and it was time for my first refill.) Megan was the technician that worked on me, and she was absolutely amazing! I have nothing but wonderful things to say about her.
Megan was able to fix the mistakes of the previous salon that I went to (uneven whites, some nails slightly longer than others, etc.), and she made my nails look as well as I was used to them looking before I moved to this area. I have had so many compliments on the nails, and they are exactly what I wanted. I like my nails short, and I have found that technicians for some reason do not like to cut them as short as I want. In the past, I have had to tell them no, and to make them shorter. I never had to do this with her.
Another plus of this salon is that I did not have to listen to the personal chatter in other languages between employees. That is something that I despise. I just think that it is rude. I feel like they are talking about people, or have something to hide. When people talk in another language, I feel like it is a way of having to not make nice and converse with the customers. Well, they did not go into long foreign conversations here. Attention was paid to the customers.
As far as the pricing, it was on the less expensive side too. A solar refill runs 17 for the pink, and 25 for the pink and white. I appreciated this. There is no charge to cut your nails. I hate that I have to pay money at some salons for my nails to be cut. If I am going in to have my nails done, you can almost be sure that I will need them cut. I absolutely hate hidden charges, and I did not find any here.
Another plus that I found at this salon, and even mentioned to my friend is that there were several customers in the salon, and they were all conversing. The sat next to each other and talked and laughed. This shows me that these ladies come on a regular basis and are somewhat familiar with each other. This is a plus to me, showing routine customers. I also saw a lady come in and buy a $150.00 gift certificate for her friend. This lady drove in from Conroe or The Woodlands... just to buy her friend a gift certificate. That speaks volumes to me.
This salon is highly recommended, I know you will love it as much as I do! read more
