"Let this be a lesson to me to go elsewhere other than my regular place. I just needed a fill in (acrylic). It’s been a month and I was just so busy after work and on weekends that I didn’t have time to stop by my regular place to get my nails done. This salon is near where I work so I figured this would be a real life saver. I just needed a fill in. I made an appointment, stopped by and was seated within a few minutes of arriving. The salon is tiny. There is maybe max six people working there, and it was stuffy. It’s very dated but to get your nails done you don’t need the most luxurious finishes on the wall, so fine. Then the woman who did my nails hurried. I mean ZOOM! As a result, my cuticles died. After a month and good care my cuticles were on point. Healthy, supple, push them back and the nail bed is primed and ready for a fill in, this woman erased my cuticles from existence with the nail dremel. Not intentionally, more like “I don’t have time to worry about them.” Ouch by the way, ouch. Then when she took off the layer of the gel polish that I had on, she used the dremel too and it was so hot that it hurt. Fine, that didn’t last long. Then she shaped my nails (badly, I went home and spent some quality time with a nail file) and did the fill in. Again, sloppy work, I wound up with dry acrylic on my skin that I had to peel off. Then she “shaped” the new addition and again, badly. I now have a flat nail, with a small lump/hill near the cuticles but since she didn’t take the acrylic all the way up to the skin, there’s a sever slope/drop off with textured run off from the gel top coat. It looks moderately OK when your nails are naked but if you put nail polish on, every imperfection is revealed. Also, she managed to run the dremel over my skin while shaping my nails so I have pieces of dry skin lifting and causing hang nails. Two fingers were cut so bad I had to put on Neosporin and bandaits for a couple of days. I hate the way the nail polish looks on my hands but I don’t want to go to my regular salon to have it fixed because I need to give my fingers time to heal. Maybe she was having an off day, maybe there was an appointment behind mine, what ever it was, I am NOT coming back here."
