I recently moved to the Brentwood area and I was so excited to try this nail salon, as it's about 3 blocks from my home. First time I went they charged me 52.00 for a shellac manicure because he had to 3 coats of the polish because I wanted glitter on top of mani, so she charged me TWO mani's for putting a coat of glitter on top of the nails....then she harrassed me for having to pay with my CC and not cash for her tip. She wouldn't let it go, she kept saying " you don't have ANY cash? We get taxed on the credit card, we really need a cash tip." It made me very uncomfortable and she made me feel very guilty. Very desperate and unprofessional.Well, I thought this was maybe a fluke incident, so I tried again last Saturday, 2/15/14, and got a shellac mani and pedi...I don't get pedicures in the winter because I want my feet to look good, I do it for the pampering. I probably sat in the pedi chair for 7 minutes total. It was the most half-ass job I've ever had, she let my feet soak, gave me about a 30 second foot massage and then put on the polish, which looks fantastic, but I needed a little more TLC. It went the same with my mani, he shlopped on some lotion and did one squeeze of each hand and I was done. At Ladue Nails for the same amount of money you get a coolant put on you feet, they scrub your feet, they get rid of the callouses, they clip/shape the nails, they wrap my legs with a hot towel, they do a pumice and then do a good 5 minute foot massage with oils. I do not recommend this place. Read Less
