I had a gel manicure and thought it was fine for the price. It is definitely a 'value salon' and the service and ambience are decent. Although the salon advertises a Shellac manicure, the nail polish used is not Shellac and chips/ flakes easily near the cuticles. My 'Deep Red' also turned out rather Pinkish, so I would be wary of the gel manicure.
I booked in for a full manicure. I was told that the polish would only last 2 days and that if I wanted it to last longer I needed to pay for shellac. I paid the extra in cash, and was quite disappointed that somehow i no longer got a full manicure which was the whole reason for the appointment. I was pleased with the nails on leaving the salon, however after only 5 days the shellac has started to come off.
