It's too expensive to do regularly, but I'm looking forward to another opportunity to splurge. The focus is on relaxation, so they keep it quiet and expect patrons to, too. I had read it in reviews on other sites and it's true, so I'll share it here - this is not the place to go with a noisy group. My masseuse was equally solicitous and did a good job. No communication problems, all the nail technicians seemed to be good about checking whether the water temperature was right, if something hurt (or tickled), asking about the length or shape of nail desired - and when the guy next to me got overwhelmed by the different scents, they grabbed him a water when he started coughing. Obviously that's not always the case, but it means you don't have to have an appointment if you find yourself in the area and willing to wait. They couldn't promise how long it would take, as they have to squeeze them in between the appointments they already have, but his wait ended up being less than 10 minutes. I made an appointment ahead of time and was served promptly, but they did take a walk-in while I was there. I had water, but a group of 3 (2 women and a man - in the 6 chairs the day I was there, 2 of the customers were men) were thrilled to be served red wine. The massage cost a little more, but it's so worth it!įor all pedicures, you are served a "menu" when you sit down - on one side are the scents you can choose for the bath water, and on the other side are the drinks you can choose from. Then they move you to a regular chair and pull a dryer up to your feet so that you make sure the polish is set before you leave. Next you move to a quiet, darkened room for the massage (a foot massage with a little extra time for scalp, hands, shoulders/neck) and then you come back to a traditional chair to have polish applied. You start in a traditional pedicure chair (massage chair, foot bath) to have your nails prepped (everything but the polish). If you add a foot massage to your pedicure, it's a 4 step process. I worried about the logistics of getting a massage with wet nail polish. The first reviewer did a great job of explaining how things work.
