Best PlaceJuice Reviews

Went here for the first time before year end, the lady charged me $40 for acrylic manicure? Is the price correct or i got scam by the lady who work over there? Just asking.. and by the way service is terrible. Im not happy with there service.
Great nails, clean space, beautiful service. I got Christmas theme designs on my nails and I absolutely loved it. The staff is so nice and patient. The offered water while we got our service. There’s also a hairdresser. I got my eyebrows done and they were great. I’ll update with new styles.
My mom and I come here every 2 weeks. She always sees Tina and this was my first time with Emy! Let me just say, Emy is amazing! I appreciate her attention to detail and meticulousness in her craft! She takes extra effort to make sure the edges of my gel nail polish was perfect and trimmed back my cuticles so gently! Very satisfied with Emy's work!
I agree with another post of them just rushing and trying to get clients in and out. It was busy when we went in and were just working to take as many people. I asked for gel nails and she didn’t even cure them. Resulting in getting air bubbles and wrinkles.
I do not recommend this nail shop !! I have used their service many times before, Rose does my pedicure, and she's excellent!! But about a week ago, I was there and had a full set of nails applied by Lisa. The very next day one of my nails broke off, and the day after that, another. I went in to have them fixed and I was treated very rudely by the male manager. He basically said that it was my fault that my nails were breaking and for me to be careful. I have been wearing nails for over twenty years, very long nails at that, I know how to handle my nails. But anyway, Lisa fixed my two broken nails, and I was told by the male manager that they usually charge $5 for broken nails but beacaus its Christmas time , he won't charge. Really ! I wasn't paying for the poor quality and service !! I really feel that they owe me a complete refund. I do not recommend this nail shop.
Would never go back i hate having glue still around my nails hands and they do wanna listen to you on how u would like your own nails to be done when you are the one paying for it. Never get marbles nails they do not last long and your hand they full out in three days
So Beautiful and they do such a great job
I’m so disappointed on how unprofessional and rude experience I encounter yesterday at Tina’s salon, I usually go get my nails done with Helen, but yesterday was a horrible experience, I told her I wanted smiley faces designs on some fingers she kept trying and couldn’t accomplished it , she once told me that any design I bring to her she can do it, that wasn’t the case, so she got frustrated and asked for help which I was ok with the smiley faces the other person was designing on my nails, She comes back and says pick another designs I’m not doing it and kept saying I was a difficult customer, some customers were there I was extremely embarrassed because I’m not a mean nor rude person to get treated that way and the owner pretty much heard her didn’t even tell her anything nor try helping the situation, which made me felt horrible because as any other customer goes into the salon with their intentions of getting their nails done of their choice, because we are paying for them which there the prices aren’t cheap, I ended up telling her to just do one color which was pink because I saw how upset she was as she’s doing them she’s was being pretty rough she keeps filing and cuts me twice which she never has my nails now are thick and uneven and now I have to pay again to get them fix, Also still ended paying pretty much the same with no designs prices varies there so make sure you asked before hand when they start working on your nails, sad to say but I will never be going back.

8. "I'm so disappointed with how unprofessional and rude experience I encountered yesterday at Tina's salon. I usually go get my nails done with Helen, but yesterday was a horrible experience. I told her I wanted smiley faces designs on some fingers; she kept trying and couldn't accomplish it. She once told me that any design I bring to her, she can do it, but that wasn't the case. So she got frustrated and asked for help, which I was okay with the smiley faces the other person was designing on my nails. She comes back and says pick another design. I'm not doing it and kept saying I was a difficult customer. Some customers were there; I was extremely embarrassed because I'm not a mean nor rude person to get treated that way. The owner pretty much heard her, didn't even tell her anything nor try helping the situation, which made me feel horrible. As any other customer goes into the salon with their intentions of getting their nails done of their choice, because we are paying for them, which the prices aren't cheap. I ended up telling her to just do one color, which was pink because I saw how upset she was. As she's doing them, she's being pretty rough; she keeps filing and cuts me twice. Now my nails are thick and uneven, and now I have to pay again to get them fixed. Also, still ended up paying pretty much the same with no designs. Prices vary there, so make sure you asked beforehand when they start working on your nails. Sad to say, but I will never be going back."
Strengths: None mentioned in this comment. Weaknesses: Unprofessional and rude experience, failure to accomplish requested design, frustration and lack of assistance from the staff, embarrassment caused by the situation, rough treatment resulting in cuts, thick and uneven nails, additional payment required to fix the mistakes, lack of clarity on prices leading to unexpected costs.
In summary, based on the comments, the strengths of Tinas Nails Place include great nail services by certain specific technicians, clean space, and the availability of additional services like hairdressing and eyebrow services. However, the salon has multiple weaknesses, including high prices for certain services, terrible service experiences, rushed and inattentive service resulting in poor quality nail treatments, rudeness from staff and managers, lack of accountability for mistakes, and a failure to meet customer preferences. These weaknesses significantly outweigh the strengths, making it difficult to recommend Tinas Nails Place as a reliable and satisfying nail salon.
