As a regular customer since shortly after they opened, I used to love coming here but for my last couple of appointments, Lucia was more than 15 min. behind. She takes longer than the average nail tech. Because I liked her work, I began to allow extra time for my appointments with her. I had an appointment yesterday for 2:00 and allowed 2 hours in my schedule (just for my fingernails) - far longer than for the average nail appointment with someone else. Needless to say, this... meant I took the afternoon off work for this appointment. I had a very special night out planned an I wanted to have nice nails for the event. I arrived at 1:55 and without greeting me, Lucia said "It'll be 20 minutes." I asked if she could still have me out by 4pm and she said, "Oh, sure." At 2:10 Jessica came to me and said "I can reschedule you." I said, "What?" and she replied, "We'll have to reschedule you." I asked why and she replied that Lucia couldn't get me out by 4:00. As I passed Lucia, she said, "I'm not going to be done for awhile here." I replied, "The a real disappointment because I had a special night planned and I wanted nice nails." She said, "Oh. Sorry." I chose not to reschedule, because why bother if they don't honor their appointments? They will, however, charge you if you miss your appointment. Interesting way of letting their customers know that they value their own time more than they value their customers'. What should have happened: 1. As a regular customer, I should have been greeted when I came in. 2. I should have had my appointment begin no later than 10 min. after the scheduled time. 3. If my appointment couldn't be kept, I should have been called so my time wasn't wasted. They expect that of their customers..... 4. At the very least, I should have received a sincere apology that Included "I am", before the word "sorry", and an acknowledgement of my disappointment, rather than a flat-toned, insincere "Sorry". So insulted, so offended, so frustrated, so upset! How could I possibly give them my business again? See more Read Less
