I went here for the first time last Thursday (4.17.08) based on the reviews of this site. I really liked the look of the salon. Very clean and bright! After I walked in and was greeted I told the woman that I would like a manicure and a pedicure and proceeded to wait my turn. I didn't have an appointment but no one even asked me if I had one so walk ins seem to be very welcome. I picked up the little book on their desk outlining the services they offer and all I can say is ... Wow! they offer a lot of different manicures and pedicures. I just went with a regular manicure and french pedicure. The pedicure was WONDERFUL! The massage was so great. She knew what she was doing and did not skimp on time. I do have one tiny complaint. The file she used on my heels actually left them rough. I'm a little upset by it but I keep a foot file in the shower and do a light scrub every day to make sure the dry skin doesn't get out of control especially in the summer wearing sandals. Already my feet are back to the way they were before I went in and I'll just make sure to tell her not to use that particular tool again. The polish was very well done too. Just the right amount of white. The manicure on the other hand was not so great. It felt rushed and messy. I liked the way she shaped my nails but the polish was already chipping on Sunday. I keep my nails very short and can go through five days before thinking I need to take the polish off. I needed to take it off on Sunday but waited till Monday. On a side note the prices seemed a little high to me but I'm coming from the NY/NJ area where I can get the same quality pedicure and much better manicure for $25 - $30 total so the $50 price was expensive to me. But like I said before I read the little book at the front so I knew what it was going to be before I sat in a chair so I'm not complaining - just mentioning.
Pros: Pedicures, free drinks during services
Cons: Manicures
