1 /5 SHANSA Vaidya: I have been getting acrylics on and off for the last 15 years. This was the worst experience I’ve ever had. Kevin took me in for an acrylic fill and it was clear he had no idea what he was doing. I was the only one in the salon. The 2 other ladies that work there went to the back room and were chatting up a storm and left Kevin out in front to work on me, instead of training him like he needed. Kevin didn’t thoroughly remove my old acrylic like nail techs usually do, and placed the new acrylic on top. Surprise surprise, 9 days later, 3 nails have already fallen off and one of them has fungus growing on it. Moisture must have gotten in from my old set that starting coming off, and he just put new acrylic on top of that?
While he was putting the new acrylic, he got the acrylic all over the skin on my fingers around my nail. I tried to go with it and be nice because he seemed new, but then it started to burn. It got so painful I asked him to stop because it hurt. One of the ladies from the back eventually came out and gasped at what Kevin had done to me. She took over and tried to fix it. However, since Kevin had gotten acrylic on my nail and onto my skin, it was hard to tell where my nail ended and where my skin began. The lady cut me and made me bleed on 4 different fingers while trying to clean up the acrylic mess on my hands. Once that was over, she sent me back with Kevin to finish up paint my nails with gel. Even that was super messy, and looked like my little niece painted my nails. At the end, they charged me full price and didn’t offer any discounts. Like I said, 9 days later, I’m already down 3 nails and 1 has fungus underneath. I’m scared to see what the other nails look like once the acrylic comes off. The worst nail experience ever.
