5 star nails? More like 1 star! I waited 2.5 hours to get served. Despite the fact that I got in the shop early, 5 people who came into the shop later than me got seen before me. When my nails eventually did get done, they were very nice, however the lack of urgency and drive displayed by staff has put me off going there again. Also, when paying for my nails, my friend was questioned about whether she had paid her fee even though she had not got her nails done. Attention to detail is very poor. Read Less

I was apprehensive when I booked my appointment for manicure and pedicure as I’ve read some bad reviews here but I thought I would give a try.
Initially I booked my appointment at 1630 then I changed at 1700 in the afternoon. When I phoned them I asked the lady if they’re still able to occupy me and she said yes so I rushed myself going to the salon. When I got there- there was a long queue. I reminded the guy who was sitting next to the reception table that I have a appointment. I approximately waited for 15 mins to have my treatment.
During the treatment- the lady who did my nails wasn’t great at all. She was incompetent and lack of passion. She didn’t clean my finger nails and toe nails properly. Plus she couldn’t speak English very well.
I was the last customer who remained at the salon until 1930 as I was waiting for my nails to dry while I was drying my nails- I positioned myself comfortably on the chair and I accidentally smudged one of my finger nails. There was a nice lady who was kind and fixed my nails nicely. While waiting- the lady who did my nails came to me and put my shoes back on and I asked a favour from her if she could able to get my keys inside my bag- while talking to her she accidentally touched one of my nails so I asked her to fixed it then a lady (manager) spoke to me and said- DONT YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE CLOSED AT 7pm? CAN YOU COME BACK TOMORROW? She was abrupt to the point of rudeness. She was also unfriendly and not even nice to her customer.
If only I knew- I would received this kind of treatment I wouldn’t wasted my money and have my treatment done here.

They don't know how to manage appointments and walk ins at the same time. I have been waiting over an hour and a half now, if i had been told i had to wait this long instead of the 20 min i was told as soon as i came in, i would have left. I just asked the receptionist and she said it will be extra 20 min as she has appointments booked for today. If thats the case why are customers told to wait only 20 minutes? I have seen at least 10 customers being served before me... i get it they booked. Than do your math right and dont say 20 minutes. They always do this.
I wish I could give NO stars. Unbelievable the receptionist just told me there is another person before me! Read Less

A good salon with a nice new refurbishment. However the attitude of the staff members needs improving. The lady dealing with appointments and running of the shop is always very nice. One staff member I recently had was terrible and I will make sure I don't them again. Speeding through my appointment so they could get back to texting and talking about smoking to much weed to someone else- cannot get any more unprofessional. When I asked for my nails to be filled before the acrylic nail was applied I was questioned about it like I was asking for the world even though I had previously had it done there. Thankfully I was transferred to another person who did a great job. Read Less

I get acrylic nails done quite often so when I heard about the good reviews of this place, I thought that I'd give it a go. Upon entering, I was greeted by a lovely person at a desk and got positioned to a station right away. Nice and quick service.
The person doing my nails was a female that was extremely rude. It started when I didn't like the colour of the polish and asked for another. She became agitated and started to speak in her own language to her colleague. It was clear that she was bad mouthing me as her colleague kept looking at me. At this point, I didn't say anything more and just let her finish off but vowed to never come here again.
The fake nails were glued on with what looked like super glue and there was a huge gap left between my actual nail and the fake nail, which is probably the result of not using nail specialised glue. Because of this, I had to have the nails removed 2 days after because of everything of that had collected there. Secondly, the colour I selected was dry so the nail technician added a lot of a special liquid to the polish which I believe degraded the quality of the polish. I say this because before I even left the salon, I was getting holes on the surface and the polish didn't last very long. Furthermore, she wasn't being careful with thinning my nail and even made my skin bleed at several points.
Overall, this has by far been the worst experience I have had from a nail salon. You could tell that not everyone there is qualified nor have had the appropriate training. The results were mediocre acrylic nails. Furthermore, I was asked to pay before I even had my nails finished which was highly inconvenient. Read Less

I have a foot infection from this place on both feet currently on holiday. The pedicure they gave me hurt, and after all that the skin was still left hard and dry and I have had good pedicures in the past. My feet are swollen and in pain and the shellac on my toes is so thick. Stay away from this place my feet are ruined maybe for life. Little toe began to pain couple hours after the pedicure then the next day swollen burning feet then split toes and more pain. Was not worth it at all and feet still cracked. Will be going to court.
