I had a good time at Pinko! I had Sophie and she did a good job on my nails! The only reason why I am not rating 5 stars is because my nail bed was burning the whole time only on my left hand because it was cut too short, and also because they were so busy that I felt extremely rushed the whole time sitting in there. I got acrylic nails with a design and it was $70 without tip. You’ll see in my photos the results v.s the reference photo, I did ask for them to be shorter than the photo so please keep that in mind.

Reviews
I still don’t understand how and why my total came up to $170!
$110 for builder gel and design. My nails turned out fine but I just can’t justify the price. I didn’t ask for a super intricate design and my nails are not that long so there wasn’t much to file down. I think I saw that I was charged for filing down, which is a weird thing to charge for a manicure service.
$60 for callus smoothing pedicure with gel. The tech that did my nails was great, but the service was pretty basic overall.
Not sure if I’ll come back because their prices are too high.
I had an amazing experience here. Everyone was so friendly. Every time I have done my nails, no one ever does the nails exactly like the picture. But here, I got exactly what I asked for, and I am so happy. I will definitely come back.
