This was a disgusting experience. I'm a senior citizen, have not had many pedicures in my life. But this is a great location with free parking, and I was willing to check it out and perhaps be a regular customer. Well, forget it. The young women absolutely never smiled, they yelled at each other in Vietnamese constantly, including conversations between rooms. I don't think my nails look that great - the big toes got about four coats, and the other toes barely two. In the end, after pantomiming that I should follow her, my tech installed me in another chair next to a shelf. Then asked that I pay her now, which I did. Another customer had to tell me I'm supposed to put my feet on the bottom shelf. The tech walked out and left me, never said good-bye, never said how long to stay. After about 20 minutes, I stood up to leave, and my tech said "you dry. you go." so I did. And I won't be back. Don't waste your time.
I never write reviews but this establishment gave me just the proper motivation. The place was clean but all of the employees talk very loud the whole time.. I have never seen it this bad. Not only is it annoying to hear someone yell less than a foot away from you but I had a hard time getting a word in... The other thing is she just barked orders at me. I don't expect to be pampered but I do expect someone that is pleasant. Lastly, I got a french manicure. As the woman did the first two nails I said I wanted less of a white tip to which she responded it would not look good. Once she finished I told her that indeed I did not like so much white and she yelled at me and almost refused to fix it.The polish they had made me wish they had an exp. date; It was clumpy and had the little fuzzies. So all in all if you bring your own nail polish, don't have a preference on how you want your nail done and you don't mind an attitude and you still want to pay full price, then knock yourself out!
Excellent Service and very friendly place to relax while having a pedicure or manicureThey have regular and Spa level pedicures and manicures at great pricesi recommend them very stronglyJohn
Very sanitary! Clean the pedicure bowls with sanitization products immediately. Get your own box of tools. A little pricey but worth it. Parrafin included in manicure.
