$10 for a manicure is on the high end for nail salons near me so if I am going to be paying that much, it must be one of the best. Unfortunately, I did not feel that way about this salon. It was alright, but I am still on the hunt for a go to place. Came by around 4:30 on a Thursday afternoon and asked if they had time for a manicure; the place was empty. I was told yes, so I headed to the wall to check out their colors. I am a tall girl, 5'8, and the top two shelves of nail polish were unreachable. Not only was it difficult to grab a color from the top shelf, it was very hard to see their selection. That was my first complaint. I also hate being rushed when I am looking for a color. I came in, not knowing which color I wanted. Could have gone with black, red, pink, green, I had no plan. Immediately after I started looking at colors someone came over to ask what color I wanted. That always annoys me. Then she tried telling me what colors she liked. I just needed a minute. I felt rushed like I do at most salons and just grabbed a random red. They were empty, there was no rush. The shape of my nails was perfect and exactly what I wanted. My manicurist made sure I was satisfied with everything before she proceeded to the next step, which I appreciated. I had a problem when she lotioned my hands. She used SO much lotion that my hands were slimy after the manicure. The hot towel was a nice effort to remove the excess lotion but only helped minimally. The drying units were very cold and short, only staying on for a minute at a time. I had to turn it back on myself 6 or 7 times. The massage was a bit painful in all honesty, she was going way to hard. The manicure only lasted five days, it was just a fine experience, probably wouldn't come back as there are less expensive salons that do just as good of a job, but with warm dryers. Read Less
