Akiko Nails Reviews

The overall result itself is not bad. But I don't think it's worth $119.5.. When I asked the designer why the result differed from the nail photo I had shown beforehand, she explained because I had booked a single-color solid gel nail. While it's true that I made a reservation for a single color, if the designer had informed me that they would only be applying a single color when I showed them the nail photo I wanted, I might have chosen to change the color. I was really disappointed that this wasn't mentioned in advance. Also, during the nail application process, she never asked even once if I was satisfied with the length and shape of the tips. So I couldn't express it due to a lack of communication, it was really hurt when she was refining the shape of the tips. As you can see in the attached photo, the shape of one area is somewhat off. I appreciate her hard work in providing the nail service, but due to the aforementioned points of dissatisfaction, I don't think I'll be returning. For your reference, I will attach the nail photo I showed and the end result. +) 10.31 : All the nail tips already fell off and my nails looks very damaged...

Manicure: (Hard Gel Extensions + Design) PHENOMENAL. Taco was amazing. You can tell Taco is extremely experienced and is passionate about their craft. LOVED working with them and the results are stunning. Extra gold star to Taco for being super understanding that my nails were sensitive (because I messed them up ='] ). They were very careful and checked in on me to make sure I was OK! Pedicure: (regular polish, rush hour style) Carmen was amazing. She was very meticulous and very nice. She gave me some pretty white toes and massaged the stress out of my life. The pedicure products smell amazing BTW. Looks like they just launched the pedicure service - please keep it! It is awesome. I LOVED my first time here. Will definitely be coming back. This is NOT a budget friendly place. But the price is WORTH it. My only feedback to the salon is that I think the small brushes for the regular nail polish may be difficult to work with (looks like that's the brush the polish comes with). I noticed streaky-ness upon first application but Carmen was able to quickly find a new brush and redo the nails so that it did not look bad. I really appreciated the resourcefulness there to ensure an excellent result. I didn't even ask her to fix, she did it herself. That is 100% right there. Lastly, the air dryers downstairs only go up to 4 minutes of dry time so we had to keep turning it back on. Despite this feedback, I still had a wonderful time - don't get me wrong! 100/10.
