Thought I’d give them a second chance. The worst pedicure ever. My heels are rough and no callus removal. Nails were ok but charged extra for gel removal. The price was too high for the poor service. No more chances for then

Pretty end result but somewhat aggressive manicure experience. Gel lamps could use a wipe down. (Separate advice: be sure to specify polish only or full manicure once you walk in after you book online.)
