I am only giving this 3 stars instead of 1 star because I've seen Molly here for my next gen manicure 4 times and loved my nails. She's the only thing saving this review from being 1 star. My review of next gen with Molly: highly recommend her, I would give HER 5 stars! When she put on my next gen, she took her time, and made it perfect for me! Highly recommend her. Now, for the review of my experience tonight!!Reviewing a next gen take off and manicure (if you could even call it that) which cost me 21$. I called on Monday to make an appointment for me and a friend and asked if my next gen could be removed manually instead of with the machine, "sure! We will wrap them, no problem" was what the gentleman told me. We came in tonight and Molly did my friends Next Gen and Kim went to take mine off... I told her I'd like her to do it manually please. She basically told me no and that I shouldn't be worried because she would use the machine only on the powder. First strike, I'm a paying customer and you're there to do a service. Do what I ask please, I know what I want. Politely I gave in and let her do her thing. She soaked and buzzed off the gel and that was fine, she didn't hit my nails. Then she wanted to do the buffer tip on the machine to do around my all of my cuticles. I told her no thank you, that I wanted a manicure, and that I'd like her to use the regular clippers. That's when she threw a hissy fit and acted rude and unprofessional towards me saying something under her breath to Molly. Just look at the photo I posted of my "manicure". She soaked my hands, only clipped 3-4 of my cuticles (even though every nail needed a good pushed back and trim), rubbed oil on my hands for 3 seconds, shaped them with a super corse file, and started to slap on polish. She basically painted all nails in 2-3 minutes and slopped on a top coat without letting any of the coats have a minute to dry. She did tell me that she needed to use the machine to make my nails extra smooth and I declined knowing that would make my nails even more brittle and that I was ok with seeing little ridges from the previous nextgen applications. I knew my nails weren't going to look great, but they need a rest and are way too brittle right now. When you look at my photo, ignore the little ridges... instead look at my horrible cuticles which weren't trimmed, the dead skin left around my nails, the edges of my nails that have no polish, and at the brush streaks in the polish on nearly every nail.Kim stormed off without asking me if my nails were ok or if I like them and didn't return to check at all. I waiting for my friend and had to ask Molly to smooth my nails because Kim left them all jagged with her corse file. They are basically paper thin... what made her think an extra corse file was what needed to be done?To top it off... I didn't even get a hot towel! Which is clearly written in their description. Summary: STAY AWAY FROM KIM. She's horrible at her job and her customer service. I will never let her touch my nails again. Go to Molly for all of your nail needs, she's a gem and will take good care of you. Kim, you need to be nicer and lose the attitude! And maybe spend more than 5 minutes on a "manicure" for your customer. Read Less
