My nails do not look good. I told her I wanted dip, and she applied the dip like acrylic and it's uneven. I asked her 3 times and not to take much of the sides and that I wanted them rounded. They are pointed to a tip. She did what she wanted and didn't listen to what I asked for. Hard to tell in the pics but the application is extremely uneven. Disappointing.

They were fast and did a nice job on my nails, however several hours after getting them, the color is coming off, like it didn't cure correctly or something, already chipping, feels soft. Overall cute nails, but might need to put another clear coat on myself for color to last longer.

Hadn't had a pedicure in months and left feeling brand new. The tech was gentle but thorough and took her time. My polish looks perfect and my feet are so soft. Will be coming back every few weeks for sure.

Just tried Gel-X for the first time and I'm amazed how lightweight and natural they feel. The shape is perfect and the polish is so shiny. The tech was gentle and really knew what she was doing. I'll never go back to acrylics.
