Alera Salon & Spa

idn't want to get the fake nails or even go with the shelac. This place was really nice inside, and the girl who worked on our hands and feet were really sweet... but I've had a few manicures before, and I absolutely know that there shouldn't be THAT many mistakes, nor should there be white paint on my finger pads after the manicure had finished. I should have also been given a nail dryer, and I wasn't... so surprise, surpise-- one or two of them smudged. I've always had a manicure done where they paint the top part of the nail white and then use a brush with the remover to make a perfect arch on the nail so that it almost looks fake. These girls just painted the arch themselves free hand with the white paint. There is a huge difference in how it will appear- I really truly think that I could have done a better job. And the worst part was... I was pretty picky! I asked her to redo a few nails, and I got a few comments like, "Well, this is a lot of pressure." Yeah... it's my wedding day! I want my nails to look good. Worst of all? Not only did I get a sub-par mani and pedi, but the price blew my mind. Would you believe it cost $95.00? For your basic french manicure (no extras) and french pedicure? My MOH and I heard the prices and shot looks of pure shock at each other. I could have gone to a little old hole in the wall and paid $22.00 for a french manicure that would have been absolutely perfect-- and I HAVE BEFORE! Do not go here. Way overpriced for less than median work.
