1 /5 WJB: Regrettably, I booked my first appointment with this shop, specifically requesting one of their best nail techs because I wanted detailed designs. I even sent an Instagram post of work I liked from their Instagram page and asked for the same tech who did the nails in the post. The person who answered the phone assured me I’d be scheduled with one of their top techs if I came the next day, so I agreed.
I drove at least 30 minutes from North Dallas to Allen, even leaving work early, fully expecting to be thrilled with my nails. Instead, I was assigned Jolie, who was not the tech from the nail post. I felt misled. Jolie struggled with placement for the diamonds I wanted, and I eventually decided to skip designs altogether. The nail shape isn’t the best, the acrylic is thick, and there are noticeable imperfections, even though this is a fresh set. I’ve attached a photo for reference.
What made the experience worse was the attitude when I had questions or raised concerns. Any time I pointed out something I didn’t like with either my fingernails or toenails, the staff made it a big deal, and I just decided to settle to keep the peace. You know how they make it obvious—through facial expressions, personal comments about your nails, or suddenly speaking in another language. It was clear I was the topic of discussion, especially when others started looking my way or walking over.
I haven’t had acrylics in years and chose to get them now because I had a big event the following day. I spent $67 on my hands and $55 for my pedi (not including tip) and left disappointed. This is not the experience I expected, especially after being reassured I’d be paired with one of their best techs. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning.
I also saw the ad stating 15% discount for new clients, which I did NOT receive.
