Three words to describe this place:
1- Unprofessional
2-Messy
3-Sloooooow
I work around the area and urgently needed a mani/pedi. I called the place to ask how much they charged for what I needed and the girl said $32. Not bad, however, I usually go to a La Belle Nails on 3rd street and even though they aren't a ""fancy"" salon (neither was this one) they are completely the opposite than this pathetic place.
STAY AWAY!
I got out of work at 3:30PM and since the place is 5 min away from work I got there at around 3:35. I realized that they don't have any spa massaging chairs and they only have the old school pedi bowls. Ok, no prob, I expect for the service to be decent at least. So a lady, who was probably 70yrs old starts working on my feet. The first thing that threw me off was that she used a NAIL DRILL to take my polish off. Whoa! I don't have gel polish on, why are you doing this? As I'm questioning this action I hear a lady sitting next to me complain about how last time she was there they used the drill and thinned out her toe nail so much that it hurt.
I started sweating.
Then she proceeds to file and clean my toe nails and I assume she couldn't see well because she kept poking my skin. ANNOYING. Then she puts the polish on and asks me to get up and go to the mani station. Didn't even offer to give me foam flip flops to walk. ANNOYING, again. So I walk over there and she starts my mani. She didn't completely remove the bright polish I had on and leaves the station.
I started questioning why/how I ended up there.
A younger manicurist starts my gel and as she is doing this she is watching T.V. and not concentrating on her job. Long story short my gel polish is uneven and as she is ""Cleaning"" it off she rubs off the polish that still needed to be curated in the UV lamp and freaks out. So she has to do it AGAIN.
It is 5:30 and I've been at this place for 2 hours.
I ask her to look at my polish because it is uneven and it looks tacky. She seems bothered by me and sends me to the bathroom to wash my hands. I come back and she tells me to wait for her. UMMMM? WAIT MORE TIME?
I started freaking out.
Then I see my pedicure and my polish was not evenly applied either. OMG! What is wrong with these people?! So I ask the ""manager"" to give me a discount because I have to go and then the younger lady freaks out and says, ""well we have to pay the people that helped you."" So they tried to fix it.
WOW.
So I wait for these INCOMPETENT, RUDE, MORONS to fix what they didn't do correctly the first time.
I pay and leave. It is now 6:15.
Who's fault was this? MINE! I should have known better not to go to Ghettoland for mani/pedis.
Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. You get what you pay for!
