They don't really listen to you about cuticles if you want to keep them, and the painting coats are uneven. The dust from when they file nails also ends up in the paint because they don't get rid of it before starting.

I don’t even know where to start honestly. From the dip powder still being stuck to my fingertips, to the uneven application, and poor shaping of the nails. Don’t even get me started when they fanned my nails with a cardboard paper they had on the side of the nail desk?? Honestly at a loss for words. Glitzy nail salon is a much more professional spot than this one. Whatever you do don’t get dip nails at this place- I don’t even know if regular nails and nail art is worth it. I left feeling uglier than when I went in. They’re the same quality as when I first started doing powder nails myself- not worth the price.
I was able to get a same day appointment for dip powder, didn’t have to wait when I got there and was kindly served on time. Unfortunately within a week, 3 of my dip powder nails popped off. These were on my natural nails, and all came off in one go while I wasn’t being rough with my hands. Sadly they were messed up by the time I got to the wedding I was attending. The dip was also THICK and each nail a bit uneven/different from each other and I did bleed on 3 fingers when cutting my cuticles. This spot is convenient for me and has great reviews so I was hopeful. I’d come back in a pinch, but not for a dip manicure.
