To be honest, this review could easily be two stars. But, I still have a lot of nice things to say about J'Adore so let's get to it. For starters, I was able to request an appointment through the Yelp app, and someone got back to me in minutes. Major props for that. I arrived to my appointment and was happy to see that the salon looked just as nice in person as it does in photos. I picked out my colors and was led over to a pedicure chair, where I opted for rose petals (over lavender) in my soaking water. The chair, I felt, was a little uncomfortable. The woman doing my pedicure got to work while another woman came over to give me my gel soak-off. Or so I thought. After my gels were off, she went right into the manicure. So I had my mani and pedi going at the same time. I can see how this might be a benefit for someone who needed to get in and out, but I felt like I couldn't relax and enjoy!Right away, I noticed that the polish for my hands looked a little thick, but the mani proceeded. When my services were over, I gave at least 20 minutes of drying time before heading out. I received 5% off with the Check-In Offer, which was great as services are pricey. By the time I got back to my hotel room, I realized one of my nails already looked a little smudged. Within 48 hours, nearly all of my nails were chipped. My manicures at my usual salon typically last at least five days so to say I was disappointed would be an understatement. On the other hand, my pedicure is doing much better. Maybe I picked the wrong polish or it was an off day, but I wasn't super happy with my experience overall. Mostly because the results of my mani were so poor. Three days later, I've already removed the polish because my nails looked so bad. Bummer! Read Less
