I have been going to this location for years, but this is the first time I had been in since the new management took over. It is more than safe to say I will never be back! I went in looking for a pedicure and manicure. Was seating for my pedicure right away, and things started out fine. All of a sudden, I felt a sharp pain from my big toe. I looked down and noticed the girl had cut my toe. At first I thought it was a surface cut on the skin so I allowed her to keep going, and figured it was just a small nic as she didn't say anything. A few minutes later, I felt a stinging sensation so I looked down and noticed the entire one side of my nail bed was full of blood. She had literally gashed the entire side of my nail and was trying to cover it up and just left it to bleed as she kept working on my nails and said nothing!! At this point, I decided to say something as I was clearly no longer relaxed and in pain, the complete opposite environment you expect when going for a pedicure. She told me it was an accident and that it would be fine, no apology. I expressed concern about putting nail polish on and it getting into the cut and stinging/ possibly becoming infected. She said no that wont happen and started to get a little annoyed with me. I told her I was hesitant to continue with putting nail polish on, and she decided to let me know "You can go somewhere else if you want". Excellent customer service, right? I asked for the manager, and a very nice girl came over and heard me out and apologized. She told me I would not have to pay for the pedicure, which I thought was fair considering. My girl then continued to argue in chinese with the manager, clearly mad that she had given me the pedicure for free. I find this extremely rude and unacceptable. The rest of my pedicure was abrupt and careless. She flew threw everything and didn't even perform the standard massage with lotion. When it came time for the polish (I was getting french), she asked what color I wanted. I told her I did not want the pink color, I wanted a more natural color. She showed me a bottle of bright pink and clear and said "these are the two colors we use, if you do not like them you can get up and go over to the front and pick out the color yourself". WOW. Thankfully, the gentleman next to her was courteous enough to bring over the color I was asking for. I have never seen a person fly through a french the way this girl did, clearly trying to get me out of there. I have no idea why I stuck around for the manicure, but I did (It is easter weekend I do not have a lot of time to go elsewhere). The same girl starts my manicure. She is flying through each nail, spending no more than a second on each. Abruptly, she gets up and walks away without saying anything and goes to the back to start cleaning the pedicure chair I was in. I watch her in disbelief as she deep cleans the thing, throws away trash, and then touches the bottom of her sandal to adjust it. She then walks back over to me, and tries to continue my manicure WEARING THE SAME EXACT GLOVES SHE WAS JUST CLEANING AND TOUCHING GARBAGE WITH. At this point, I jumped out of my seat and got the heck out of there. I cannot believe an establishment would operation in such an unprofessional way and allow its employees to be unsanitary. This was a nightmare experience. I left with nail dust still on my hands and no manicure. I will never be back. Read Less
