1 /5 NK Curchin: I recently had a gel acrylic full set done, and Iām extremely disappointed with the experience. This was, without a doubt, the worst set Iāve had at any salon. While the manicurist was friendly, she made several mistakes during the process. She cut my cuticles so badly that they bled, and theyāre still burning hours later. The paint job is uneven, with noticeable bumps, and the nails are misshapen. I politely asked her to fix a few things, but the issues were never fully addressed.
Whatās even more concerning is that I observed her using the same tools on a client before me without sanitizing them. Given that she was cutting my live skin and causing me to bleed, Iām worried that if the tools arenāt properly sanitized, germs could easily be transferred to others. While Iām fortunate I donāt have any blood-borne illnesses, itās essential for any salon to maintain proper cleanliness to protect clientsā health.
In hindsight, I wish I had been more assertive and requested another nail tech to take over, but I tend to be shy and didnāt want to cause a scene. Unfortunately, now Iām left with the need to have my nails redone for a special event, which will cost me an additional $45 plus tip. Iām truly disappointed by the entire experience.
Edit to reply to the owner: I am sure I am reviewing the right salon: 2326 Fair Oaks Blvd suite g, Arden-Arcade, CA 95825
I know the two KB Nails are not affiliated.
My total came to $90 because I also had a basic pedicure, but the pedicure was fine. I added my receipt to the photos for the owners review.
I would appreciate a redo of my nails once my cuticles have healed.
