This was my first time here. I found the staff to be very friendly, and the place appear to be generally clean, although not very nicely decorated. But I'm not here for the decor. I'm here for a quality pedicure. Instead of letting my cuticles soak in the cuticle solution, and using the tool to push my cuticles back, she went pretty much straight to ripping them out with the cuticle cutters. She also trimmed back the corners of my big toenail as though I had ingrown toenails, which I did not. Now I will have them when they begin to grow out. Thanks. She did a very nice job of massaging creamy lotion into my calves and feet. I did enjoy that part. But when it came time to begin the polish, things really went downhill. First of all, she very quickly brushed a tiny amount of basecoat just at the center of my nail. She did not bother to coat the entire nail bed, but she did manage to get basecoat around my cuticles. Then she applied nail polish so fast and she applied it very thick and, like the basecoat, got it all over my skin. I thought for sure she would stop and use a brush Dipped in polish remover to clean up my cuticles, but she didn't. She just went ahead and globbed on the topcoat. That was it. No offered to sit somewhere and dry, no spraying of fast dry material, nothing. Should I have said something? Probably. But I assume I'm coming to a professional place staffed with people who actually know how to give a pedicure and apply polish correctly. It is not my job to tell them how to do theirs. They were very fast, I think I was in and out within 20 minutes. But it takes more than 20 minutes to do a decent, albeit basic, pedicure. Read Less
