Let me break this down for you:
They don't accept debit OR credit cards. Cash only.
Their on-site ATM will cost you $1.25 - your bank will charge you $2.00 for using the on-site ATM. You can only take out TWENTIES, (you'll need all of it and MORE).
Are you still following me? Great. A BASIC pedicure is $35.00. The 'kit' which is a file and toe separators (flip flops are extra) is $2.00. FUN FACT: The kit is NOT mandatory per State of OR- but the techs say it is. FUN FACT: They're making a profit off selling the 'kits' that we take home and toss them in a drawer never to use again.
Your $35 BASIC pedicure now costs you $40.25 - not including a TIP. I give the tech a $5.00 tip because she only does the bare minimum (not even a decent foot/calf massage) and that's even more than I think she deserves. Especially after the salon itself has already overcharged me in undisclosed fees.
So, now your "$35.00" BASIC PEDICURE will cost you $45.25.
Just remember, whatever you THINK you'll pay, add at least another $10 or $15 bucks. This business is shady AF since they don't disclose mandatory fees UP FRONT. Buyer beware.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Majek A.Portland, OR011Apr 28, 2024
Prices seem to fluctuate from visit to visit. I would just say be careful when you say "yes" to something. More than likely there is a charge. My charge for a manicure and pedicure went from97 to 107.
Update: today my deluxe pedicure went from 50.00 as posted to 62.00 when I was paying, I asked why she says for the gel polish WTH. I think this shop is just convenient, nothing else .
I think I'm moving on to a shop that's more consistent.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Cheryl M.Succasunna, NJ05Apr 4, 2024
I got natural dip done less than 1 week ago, I noticed how bad it was once I got home and now 8 of my 10 nails are already chipped. Do not waste your time or money! I
wish I would have done more research on this awful place.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Marie G.North Portland, Portland, OR0414Jul 29, 2023
Hmmm, they were extremely busy for a weekday. I waited almost 30 mins AFTER my appointment time to be serviced. I am a patient person, so it wasn't a huge deal.
But what was a huge deal to me, was the actual services I paid for. I got a pedicure (#3 on the their menu, basic white gel), and the whole time it seemed rushed (seemed to have booked way too many customers and were still taking walk-ins!!) Paint job was OKAY at best. I don't think it was worth $50 + tip. I can see the price being valid had they taken their time with the polish, paraffin, scrub, etc.
Staff was friendly... to me. I saw them ignore multiple customers. People were waiting to pay at the counter, and no one acknowledged them or attempted to try and check them out.
I am surprised at the experience after reading the reviews. Not sure how it has this high of a rating. I would not recommend.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Marie T.San Francisco, CA031Apr 7, 2024
I was able to walk-in for an eyebrow wax and the woman who did my brows was efficient and professional. Will definitely be back!

I got my dip nails for the first time a week ago. A couple days ago at work, I found my nail laying on the floor while cleaning up. I work at a hospital in an operating room! The reason I got dip is because I need something that will not just randomly pop off. I have many coworkers who say their dip lasts for weeks. Mine didn't even last for 6 days! I'm kinda pissed because this could seriously be an issue if I had to change my gloves in the middle of an operation! What the hell. Also the dip was super bulbous and thick. I don't even want to go back her to have them fix it because I can't afford to have the same thing happen again for patient safety reasons. Would not recommend.
Also, I see a lot of people complaining about the make nail tech. This wasn't done by him. I don't know the woman's name.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Billie S.Canyon Country, CA26883Dec 29, 2023Updated review
Love coming here, I'm always satisfied and rose does such a great job. I wanted something simple and cute and safe for a newborn baby. Definitely recommend going here.

Honestly only posting a review because I saw so many great reviews and completely did not have that experience. I came in asking for a basic white gel pedicure and asked her to cut my toes to the same length and straighten my broken one. Instead I left with all my toes being different lengths and my big toe having a huge irritation on one side. Poor cleaning of the nails and even worse painting job. The polish was brought too close to the cuticle so it was all bumpy and uneven and I asked her to fix it at the end of my appointment and she acted like she did but made no difference.

My daughter and I got gel extensions put on for her birthday, and I couldn't be happier. Convenient location, and lots of visual aids for shape/color selection, which was nice for a first-timer like my kiddo. I rarely get my nails done, but I have a feeling that might change!
