3 /5 Rosario Maltbia: I have been looking for a new nail salon and saw that this one had a number a of good reviews and decided to give it a go.
The Pros:
- Walked in on a Saturday 11 am (typically a busy time for a salon) and was seated right away. There was only one other customer.
- Prices are cheaper than what I’ve normally seen (Polish Change $8, Gel Manicure $25, French Tip $8 add on)
- The mail tech that did my nails (I didn’t get her name) was very detailed and took extra time to do her work. Toe Polish change & Gel manicure with French tip took 1.5 hrs from start to finish.
The Cons:
- Asked for round nails and got almond shape with deep filing into my nail bed (doesn’t look good in my opinion)
- The overall spa did not give off professional vibes. 1) I was greeted by a lady that was in the middle eating and kept eating while walking me around to my seat. 2) Another nail tech was sitting at her station with her feet on the table while on her phone. 3) kids were in the back which is not a problem in my book but their TV and sound for what they were watching/playing was louder than anything else in the salon.
The Ok’s/Just FYIs:
- Parking is packed on weekends due to number of restaurants in the same plaza
-This place does not give off any “spa” vibes. It’s a simple nail salon with nothing special to it. All their equipment & decor just seem outdated, right down to the glitchy TV. If you’re looking for a place to feel pampered or lux spa this isn’t the place for you.
Overall:
This place will get the job done but it’s nothing more than just ok. Nothing particularly special or note worthy. I’m giving it a 2 stars. The biggest decider of this review bumping up to 3 stars is if my gel manicure actually lasts 1.5-2 weeks. I’ll update my review with how it goes
Update!
It’s now day 15 and my gel manicure is still holding strong like day 1. Bumping up to 3 stars!
