text: I'll start with the pros. \n-The salon is super clean! I'm not sure how long they've been there but it looks brand new and very pretty. \n-They have a good selection of polish colors to choose from, mostly OPI. \n(OPI is my favorite.)\n-My friend and I went in without an appointment at 5:15 on Friday evening and only had to wait a few minutes before being taken to our chairs. \n-The pedi chairs might be the best I've experienced yet. They're super comfy, look brand new and have the most massage settings. \n-My tech was very friendly... I mean she didn't talk except to ask me what kind of pedi I wanted but she SEEMED friendly. \n\nOn to the cons. \nI want to say that this first gripe is not something that would normally make or break my experience and honestly it's something I would have overlooked completely had my service been a great one... or even a decent one buuuut it wasn't so I think it's worth mentioning.\n-It's so quiet that it's almost uncomfortable. While I appreciate a calm atmosphere, silent doesn't necessarily mean serene. It was as if the techs are instructed not to speak at all and without any kind of background music it was awkward for my friend and I to talk to each other.  \n\n-They have 3 pedicure options, the basic, classic and spa. I got the classic. Callous remover, a sugar scrub and hot stone massage are the extras with this one. I asked if I could have the scrub on just my feet because my legs are too sensitive for it. I expected that since it was ONLY my feet for that part she might actually \"scrub\" and apply some pressure. I was wrong and it was the same careless, barely there rubbing (*that I HATE) even after she rinsed me and applied the lotion to my feet and legs. \n\n*This is one of my biggest pet peeves. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I can paint my toes and rub lotion on my own feet and legs FOR FREE.  I pay for pedicures because I want a proper massage. \n\n-The hot stone massage... I've never had a hot stone massage and I was really excited! Did I get a hot stone massage? I'm not sure. I remember her bringing over two stones and I saw them in her hands buuuuut I don't feel like I can say that I experienced a hot stone \"massage\" \nShe was so fast up and down, up and down that I could never actually enjoy it. Picture someone cleaning clothes on a washing board minus actually applying pressure. That was the movement. \nThe only time I could tell she was using stones was when she was going over my shins and that HURT. It felt like, well like someone scraping rocks over your shins. \n(To be fair maybe that's what a hot stone massage is supposed to be. If that's the case then bravo to her. I suppose it's just not my cup of tea.)\n\n- The woman doing my friend's pedi used a drill! My friend looked over to me horrified! We've probably gotten a bazillion pedis together from several places and NEVER have either of us had a drill used on our toes. \nToenails are little! Drills get HOT. You do the math. \n\nI want to be clear. My experience here wasn't terrible it just wasn't good. I didn't leave mortified just slightly annoyed. (I can't say the same for my friend though.)\n\nMy toes do look great but I'm going to stick to 7 Day. \nI would ONLY consider going back to Tips & Toes if I'm desperate and just interested in the end result. (This place is literally half a mile from my work.)  \nBUT I would stick to a basic pedi and save myself the $8 of \"extras\"
