I must give the salon two stars for the good manicures and pedicure we received, but I would give no stars simply for the poor service. I was visiting the area for my sister's wedding from Los Angeles. I called the salon for nail appointments a week early, and because I wasn't yet sure of a set schedule, and not wanting to have to cancel at the last moment, I asked if they would accept four walk-in manicures on a Friday. They assured me that this was fine and that they would be happy to host us if we called a day in advance.I did this and was able to schedule an entire afternoon that they assured me would be "cleared just for your family." However, the day of, they called and asked me to move the appointments to an hour later, but stated we would be taken care of and would be able to make the 4pm rehearsal. Going into the appointments, we were lighthearted and happy to have it working out, but left feeling frustrated and the target of their criticisms.Upon arrival, we had to wait for the pedicurist to even begin another client who "schedules her appointments months in advance" but was running an hour late. We shrugged this off, and worked with the woman giving manicures while waiting for the bride to have her pedicure. However, when the bride did begin her pedicure, the woman was complaining about how tired she was, how long this day had been, and how she was doing US a favor...true story! After finishing the bride's pedicure, the pedicurist hung around, folding towels, and bumping into us, until the bride realized she was waiting for her tip. After giving her the minimal 15%, she left immediately. The woman giving the manicures was nice enough, until she asked me personal questions regarding my religious beliefs and laid down judgment on my sister the bride for living with her fiance before marriage. Wow. I was simply stunned. We attempted to make our somewhat inflexible schedule work with the salon's schedule and give them business, but in the future, we will not return. Which is a pity, as the bride and in-laws make frequent trips to this area. Read Less
