Received a gift certificate for a pedicure from here back in May and decided to finally use it bc I did not have time to go to my usual spot, Queen Nails, in Raleigh NC, what a bad idea...where do I begin? First I was greeted by Connie, the owner, with a frown as she examined my attire and all but pointed me in the direction of a man, who I later learn was/ is her husband. Oh about the pedicure, wish I could tell you something BUT considering that all I did was sit my feet in WARM water for 10 minutes, had my toe nails shaped and the bottom of my feet BRUSHED lightly with a dingy sponge, I really can't tell you if this is the TRUE Love Nails pedicure experience or the experience one receives if they have a gift certificate thats nearly 4 months old. Either way, I would NOT recommend this place to anyone who has had a REAL spa pedicure anywhere in America. The certificate was valued at 26$ but I promise you the treatment I received was worth a mere 10$ and that's because their polish was used.I gave them 2 stars bc I did get gel polish on my fingers and the polish matches my toes and even comes as a combination in a box ( I'm assuming its for ppl like me who like gel polish on their fingers and regular polish in the exact color on their toes) and I haven't seen any other spa with that brand. My gel polish is still on with no chips or smudges and its been 2 weeks so they may actually be the place to go for gel polish.Did I mention the polish on my toes smeared before I left the salon and the male tech simply put a little acetone on it and went over it with the polish again?The salon was clean, location was ok, and there was/is even a pretty good Mexican Restaurant on the strip.Bottom line, Love Nails is NOT the place for a pedicure and if you are anything like I am about your fingers and toes, beware!
