I work with the Florida Board of Cosmetology, so I am aware of safety and health issues for Nail salons. I have tried several Tallahassee nail salons, and I will return to Nail Nook. I visited for the first time recently as a walk-in. I was pleasantly greeted with a smile and a welcome by one of the technicians, and attended to quickly. They were moderately busy, but had 8 technicians at work. I opted for their top of the line pedicure. It was a lengthy pedicure with scrub, mask, moisturizers, hot stone massage, paraffin (ahh), and more. The pedicure tools were sterilized and sealed before use (thank you). My regular (and basic) OPI polish for some reason did not dry as expected, but this was quickly remedied before I left. All nail surfaces were artfully covered, with no missing edges and no messy polish on my toes. Clean and crisp. My mani request was simple, just a trim, mani, and burnish. The nails could have been burnished a little more, but they were even and smooth. An accidental painful nip at the cuticle received sincere regrets and abundant apologies. I had a nice soak, but next time will also ask for a cuticle softener.The salon is new, spacious, and clean, with calming, sometimes classical, music. I received a warm thanks and a friendly hug upon departure. As I watched the technicians, I did not see anyone who did not appear to be friendly and competent. I recommend. I hope your experience is as good as mine was. Read Less
