I am pretty sure this is the only nail salon in Joppatowne, but I don't care because it is all I need! It is close enough to home that I don't feel bad running out for a pedicure and leaving my husband home alone with our daughter. I like a couple other places in White Marsh, but if I am limited on time and not already out, then this is my place to go. I am not a fake nail kind of girl, but I did come here in high school a couple times to get those done for prom and homecoming and they did a good job. I only come here for pedicures, but they also do waxing and manicures. Anyway, back to the pedi! Everyone that works here is very nice and friendly. When you walk in, someone will ask you what service you want done and if you are getting a mani or pedi, they will tell you to pick your color from the large selection on the wall. As you are choosing your polish, they will start filling the tub with water and turn on the massager on the chair if you are getting a pedicure. Before you are even soaking your feet in the relaxing warm soapy water, someone is offering you a bottle of water. As you sit back in the chair, you can change the speed and type of massage while your feet get scrubbed and transformed back to smooth and soft. A regular pedicure is $25 and a spa pedicure is $35. I opt for the regular pedi and add in a callus remover (gross, I know, but totally necessary!) for an extra $5. This is totally worth is because without this, my heels would never even get close to being remotely smooth!After your feet have been restored back to their original beauty, they will apply a base coat, followed by the polish you chose and finally a top coat. You can either stay in your massage chair or go sit your toes under the drying light for a few minutes. And ta-da! Pedicure complete for a great price. Make sure to tip them well because they will remember you next time and may hook you up! The guy that does mine doesn't charge me extra for getting a French pedicure anymore ;-) Read Less
