I had an appointment scheduled for 3:15 pm, but late the night before, the salon called asking if I could reschedule to 6:30 pm. I agreed, but when I arrived on time, I was told I'd need to wait another 15 minutes.
I had booked a Gel X fill with Shabnam. I've been getting my nails done for years, and honestly, I don't think I've ever felt so uncomfortable in a salon before. Shabnam was rushing through my nails and at times filing so aggressively that it hurt. I tried to make small talk, but the conversation was minimal and awkward. At one point, she asked where I usually went for my nails, and when I told her, she gave me a look that felt very judgmental. I was so embarrassed that my face turned red, and she commented asking if it was hot inside the salon--making the situation even more uncomfortable.
On top of that, I could sense tension between the nail techs as they were talking to each other, which added to the uneasy vibe. My nails came out "okay," but they definitely look rushed, and the experience overall felt like I was just being pushed in and out of the chair as quickly as possible.
This is not the quality or atmosphere I expect when I get my nails done. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, and I cannot recommend this salon.
