I walked in to get a full set of Gel X nails that came out amazing. The staff are very attentive to detail and took the time to listen to my requests. I also got the La Foot pedicure and that was amazing as well! My feet are so soft. I’m from out of town but when I come back, I’m patronizing this business again. Thank you!
About Pink Mi Up Chinatown
Pink Mi Up offers a pleasant salon experience with a great vibe and convenient amenities like free Wi-Fi and charging cords. Customers appreciate the skilled nail technicians, especially Trista, who received praise for her work. Ella also impressed clients with her ability to turn ideas into reality, checking in with them throughout the process. While some gel manicures have experienced issues with chipping, the staff is responsive and quick to fix problems. Overall, the salon has a beautiful location and well-priced services, making it a popular choice for nail care.
However, there have been some issues with miscommunication and overbooking. Although walk-in appointments are advertised, clients often find themselves scheduled for later times, as staff split their time between multiple customers. Attitudes from the staff are sometimes not very friendly, but they still provide appropriate nail care and manicures. Customers are generally satisfied with the results, especially with the attention to detail, like perfectly shaped nails and consistent length. Some clients find the prices a bit high, especially for color choices that cost extra. Despite these concerns, many are happy with their gel x sets, praising the technicians for their care and precision. May received special mention for her kindness and talent. Many clients appreciate that the salon focuses on gel and gel x services, avoiding acrylics, and express their loyalty to Pink Mi Up, looking forward to future visits.
Reviews
Conveniently located to me, compared to my former place on Diversey. I like that they're open 7 days and (unrelated) use fans to capture the bulk of nail dust.
I've been 3 times and each visit I was able to walk in and receive service (gel-x mani and pedi) immediately.
The work is solid, lasting 3-4 weeks without chipping, which indicates they're using fresh polish and good techniques. I haven't requested any complicated designs yet, so I can't really speak to the level of artistry but the gold chrome stiletto and green cat-eye stiletto I've had done looked great - ask for May.
Parking is free (at the time of this review) and service is efficient. Bring cash to save… read full review
Got me in last minute and crushed it with the design! Highly recommend. True artist! Came there for a food show and wanted to represent my company in which we sell fish and she NAILed it!!
