Fatima Calderon After several good manis and pedis here, I had an awful humiliating experience. If you don’t want to be accused of lying in front of a crowd, damaged nails and a gamble at a bad mani and pedi don’t come here!
The evening after the gel mani and pedi, I had a nail break and polish peel off. My nails were cut from a medium-long length to pretty short so when my nail broke, it peeled to expose sensitive skin. The pain was excruciating. I now realize that the service provider used the electric device to remove the gel excessively thinning out my nails. After two weeks my nails are still breaking!
The day after my appointment I also noticed excess skin besides my toes and dry skin patches all over my feet. I was really upset because I remember specifically paying extra for the ‘Deluxe’ pedicure which included callus removal.
On Monday, I called to explain the situation to the owner. She asked me to come in, but unfortunately I was leaving town for a week. Upon returning, I drove straight there. I waited about 15 mins and picked out new colors, but the person in charge told me I couldn’t have new colors. I wished I would have asked why. After the 1 hour drive hassle, I was hoping I could at least get new colors. Little did I know that the time driving would be the better part of this experience.
Then I’m told that they are only re-doing the pedi because I would have had to come in the day after to fix the mani. Honestly this is when I started to get frustrated and angry. I reminded the person in charge to tell the owner about my travels and that it wasn’t just a chip in my nails, but that my nails were damaged. When she came to report back from her conversation with the owner she said that to remove dry skin from the feet I’d have to pay for callus removal which of course, I did! Her response was incredible. She said she was going to have to check the cameras. I couldn’t believe she was accusing me of lying. I was so embarrassed, I regret not leaving right then and there! No mani and pedi is worth your dignity.
Ultimately, a new service provider re-did my pedicure and the original service provider re-did the two broken nails with the peeled off polish. Had I known my character would have been brought to question in front of a crowd, I would have NEVER given them an opportunity to do a better job.
Honestly, I should have just posted a review of my original bad experience because as I left the person in charge encouraged me to write a review. It sounds like they enjoy feedback, whether it is good or bad, which is great, except I dont think she realizes that the issue was the way the managed the situation.
I understand mistakes happen, but theres no excuse for treating someone the way she treated me. At least the nail technician who originally did my mani was kind and apologetic.
Bottom line: youll probably have a good mani and pedi here, but if/when you dont, and you speak up, you will be humiliated. Your dignity is not worth the gamble.
