1 /5 Creative Woman: This review is specifically for the rude nail guy that works here. Im a local business owner and many of my customers have recommended me this place, which is why I am so shocked to have left here UNHAPPY and in tears due to to how stressful and uncomfortable the experience of getting my nails done was. As soon as walked in (early for my appointment) he barked at me to pick out my color at the wall without even a hello. After sitting down he immediately started gluing acrylic tips to my nails, without doing any preparation at all. I had just come from work and had visible dirt under my nails, not a lot but Ive ALWAYS had nail salons clean & prep nails and surface before proceeding. As he continued to glue I asked him if he was going to fix the nails first, and he told me "No, thats a different service," and "dont worry it will be covered up." I was in shock and told him I wasnt going to proceed sealing dirt into my nails and he said fine, stood up and threw down a wooden stick in front of me to clean my own nails, and then left to go eat a snack in the back room. Ive had my nails done like this a million times, all over CA and the US. Never in my life have I experienced anything like this. I should have gotten up and left, but I already had tips glued to my nails and I didnt want to make a scene or ruin anyone elses experience who came here seeking a relaxing treatment. After I cleaned my own nails and he ate his snack in the back room, he eventually came back and proceeded to work on my nails, and boy did he make me pay for it. He almost glued two of my fingers together (still cant get the glue off) and spent two hours of extremely uncomfortable silence, squeezing my fingers way too hard, twisting them and clearly trying to hurt me or at least make me uncomfortable. I had planned on getting a pedicure too, but the manicure was so torturous that I decided against it. Almost $100 later I was overcharged and left with my nails applied crookedly with a super messy gel job. I think he intentionally made my nails as bad as possible. This was the worst experience Ive ever had at a nail salon in my entire life. The women working on customers around me seemed so sweet and attentive to all of their customers, which really seemed to amplify his bad attitude, carelessness, and lack of customer service. I really regret coming here and wont be back as long as he works there.
