A couple days ago I left a good review for this place having had good experiences the 3 or 4 times I'd been there. Other people on Google were saying they were rude, dirty, brutal, and I felt the need to stick up. Well...Friday afternoon my daughter and I stopped in for mani/pedis. They were full and we only waited about 10 minutes. The issue I have is with the tech who did my nails - wish I would have gotten her name. It's almost like these nail shops don't want them to be identified as individuals lest the better techs take all the request business (no introductions, name tags, etc. and I never got the name of the girl who actually does a good job, grrr-my bad).Anywhooo...whoever she was brutalized my feet and hands in a very hostile, agressive manner. She was surly, very rough on my hands and feet, and I"m sure I have some damage to my nail beds. It had only been about a month since I had a pedicure and my feet weren't that rough-just typical summer in sandals dry areas-no major calluses. She proceeded to use a power tool (like a dremel with a round rotating sanding disk) to exfoliate my feet. I actually thought she was going to cut me with how she was using quick, jabbing motions to attack my feet. At one point I cried out (when she hit the area between where my big toe connects to my sole-thin skin there!) and said "ouch that hurt!" She actually shrugged her shoulders, rolled her eyes and smirked at me. OMG. I made it through that part thankfully, and to make the story shorter, left with some areas being rougher than when I went in along with a sloppy polish job (polish on my cuticles she didn't bother to clean off). Oh and I had asked her to cut my toenails bc I like them short but she ignored me and just filed them. Now for the manicure: short version-she asked me to pay before she polished and while she was ringing it up I used the restroom, washed my hands, and applied lotion (like I do every time I wash my hands). I asked her to use the alcohol again to remove the oils from my nails bc I had gotten lotion on them and she said no (I asked her twice)! Unbelievable...Total hateful attitude. The result was that the polish peeled off within 12 hours (big surprise). I had planned to go back and ask them to redo it, but I'm done with this shop. Be wary if you choose to go - I'm not the only one who has had a bad experience (see Google reviews). I'm okay with nail techs not being chatty and quietly doing their job or talking in Vietnamese to each other, but to be contemptuous, hostile, and dangerously aggressive is uncalled for. Read Less
