This is a review of the Red Door at Work service. This is where the Red Door technicians come to your office to offer their services of manicures and more. Their services are quite terrible. I don't believe they screen their technicians and if they do, I'm highly concerned with their processes. Not only that, but they offer a polish called, "vinyl-lux" - which they allegedly claim lasts longer and offered at an additional charge. Regardless if you choose this option or not, the polish rarely lasts past the end of day. Let's talk about my most recent experience with Jamila. She came into the office environment in black lipstick, leggings, and wearing claws. That's the best way I can describe it. It's those fake tips that extend for miles. Okay, you are sending technicians to professional work environments, you would think that Red Door would ensure a dress code. Regardless, let's get past that because who cares how you are dressed right? It's about the work you deliver. My appointment was supposed to be at 11:20 am. I lost track of time due to working on a lot of assignments. I then suddenly remembered my appointment at 11:40 am. She was just sitting there - doing nothing that entire time. Why not check your appointments? Why don't you ask the receptionists to call us in because you are ready? Fine. She told me she would just take me then. Mind you, this means she will run in with another scheduled appointment. My office runs high on meetings, etc. time is of the essence. It would cause delays to everything, but okay let's get past that too. She starts filing my nails. I just asked for a square with rounded edges. She does this, but also files my nails completely off. I literally have no white part of my nail left. She goes, you should have told me. I'm sorry, as a nail technician, I'm supposed to tell YOU to not file the white tip of my nail completely off? Not only that, previous technicians typically ask do you want it very short or do you just want me to shape your nails? Since she asked for the shape and my nails were pretty short, I didn't think she was filing them completely away. Not only that, she left the entire sides of my nails without polish. She was too concerned with the polish going on to her freakishly long claws. To top it off, she left a sloppy finish all around my cuticles. Not straight. They were all jagged and I had to ask her to fix it. If I could do nails better than paying to get them done, what is the point? She then asks me if we have foil in the office because someone requested a gel manicure and that never happens so she didn't bring foil. I asked her to ask the receptionist because I wasn't sure. She just asks my coworker who was waiting on her appointment because her lazy self didn't want to get up off the chair. TERRIBLE! Read Less
