I was recommended this place by family, so I went in excited to maybe have found a good salon. I went in on a Saturday as a walk in, and asked whether they could fit me in for a fill and repair from the last place I went to (if they couldn't fit me in, I would have, of course, understood). Rose (I'm 99% certain it was the owner, as she was doing all the greetings and transactions) told me she could, and she finished up with her current manicure client and had me sit down.
She proceeded to do a terrible, rushed job. She was distracted the entire time, looking around and talking to others or greeting people coming in (which is fine, but it was to the exclusion of me and the quality of her work-- she hardly looked as she was doing them, which was kind of scary?), said no more than a few words to me, then sort of blew off my requests to fix my nails. She made me feel like I was troubling her, and was someone to hurry and finish and send out the door.
My nails had honestly never looked worse. They were very uneven and thick (she didn't bother to match them or make the tips look nice despite my urging), not only the (gel) polish, but the gel itself (which, by the way, is not an actual gel-- they say it's a powder gel, but it's just a form of acrylic that you're wasting your extra money on). Only a few days after, they were chipping around the fill area and the polish was coming off, which I'd never had happen (especially so fast or to that extent) before. I wish I'd taken a picture of them...
I will never go back after that treatment, and I will certainly be dissuading others from going, and I will happily continue seeing my newfound, lovely nail lady in Wayzata. Read Less
