I have been going to modern nails over a year for dip manicures. Overall, itโ€™s been a great experience. They would be running behind here and there or miss a section of the shellac on one of my nails, but I was always satisfied until recently. My last two dip Manicures were poorly done. The first quickly Chipped I ended up just peeling them all off and went back a few weeks later for a fresh one I left ready to start the week with wonderful nails. The next day, The whole polish came off and I called and they repaired it the next day since then I have lost two more nails. I do not have time to go back once a week to have them repaired. I am going to be looking for a new salon.
