A waste of time and money 12/15/2008

I just moved to the neighborhood and decided to try this place for my weekly manicure/pedicure. It's fair to say this was probably the worst service I've had in a while. Almost every employee (including the lady doing my nails who left me mid-nail polish to take a call) was on their cell phone, lounging about in front of the few customers (it was a Monday afternoon) or cracking jokes for everyone to hear. During my pedicure, she let my feet soak for a total of maybe 5 minutes and used the scrubbing pumice, which is one of the main reasons I go to a salon instead of doing it myself, for less than 10 seconds. She scrubbed so quickly and lightly I didn't even feel it, and usually I'm very ticklish. In the end, she didn't even use the little paper strips between the toes before she applied the nail polish. My manicure was similarly rushed, so much so that now I have air bubbles underneath the polish caused by applying thickened base coat too quickly. To top it all off, there were no pedicure driers at all in the place, only a small portable manicure drier that was on top of the working station. For all of that, she charged me $6 more than what a standard mani/pedi combo in the neighborhood costs (i've been to two other salons in the same three or four blocks) and didnt even give or write a receipt. I will never visit this place again. Pros: Nice open space Cons: Rushed and careless service, employees constantly on their cell phones more
