I'm no girly-girl. I can tell you that now. So, me getting a mani or pedi seems pretty ridiculous, but I've done it. My mother-in-law loves getting her toes done, but is VERY particular about things. So, she searched for a very long time to find a place that: a)cleaned their supplies and establishment to her satisfaction, b)had good customer service, c)had comfortable chairs, d)didn't charge an arm and a leg, and e)didn't yammer on and on to their friends in a foreign language. You just KNOW that they're talking about you! Once she found the place, she had me tag along.I've been here a handful of times now, getting both mani's and pedi's and both at the same time. here's as far as I can figure:They sanitize everything from the nail files and scissors to the chairs and foot bath's. They are very polite, and always ask before they do something if it will cost more, and tell you how much it will be. (Like doing the spa leg massage, or details on the nails.) Their chairs for the pedicure station are squishy with good support and massaging with lot of controlled settings you can change. Their prices are posted in plain view, and they will tell you if something will cost more -- and sometimes will do discounts if you're getting several things done. And while they will, every once in awhile, say a few words to each other in their native tongue, it's generally about business (cleaning or tipping or where something was left), and then they go back to talk to you. As well as nails, they also do waxing and have tanning beds too. I've never done the waxing or tanning -- but the other girls in there do. And they seem very pleased with their experience. The only reason I had to knock off one star is because of my most recent visit. I had finally convinced my husband to go get a manicure with me, after M-O-N-T-H-S of harassing him about it. When we sat down they gave him a new girl. Male mani's aren't that difficult. You trim back the cuticles, cut the nails, buff it up to shine and maybe massage the hand a bit. No big deal. New Girl ended up cutting open his finger pretty badly and well... needless to say - he won't be going back. However -- on the bright side, it didn't get infected, in healed up quickly and there's not even a mark now. Read Less
