I had seen this place walking by and they had a sign that stated $ 18.99 gel, design plus glitter and took the time one day to drive the 25 min to get there thinking that they were going to do a good job on my nails. I went in and asked if I could do a full set with gel and the guy welcomed me in and informed me that it was going to cost me $ 35 since I wanted extension. I though why not since I pay $ 50 in other salons for just French. It seemed that Cherry was not in but another guy who was there started with the nail extension. I came in with a dark purple nail polish and him instead of removing it fully was too busy looking at the tv and smeared it all over my fingers and nails. It took him 1 hour to put the extensions(tip) in and meanwhile they were calling Cherry to come in. She came in after some time of me sitting there and I showed her the design I wanted(French with some rhinestones) I asked her many times to not do them thick cause I have very small hands and they would look like claws. The end result was a bullshit design that looked nothing from the design I picked in from her photo album, I could still see the black nail polish I came in with, my nail cracked on the side as soon as I went home and my nails are so thick that I am competing with my dog :(oh and I forgot to mention that I paid $ 55 instead of the $ 35 I was quoted in the beginning. This place is a joke and so is the nail artist that was rushing like she could not miss a doctors appointment. Very very disappointed

I get my nails done here every now and then. Cherry is great with everything she does. I always leave happy! They moved the store to another spot in splendid china tower and looks pretty. Pretty nails for decent price

I went to salon plus to see cherry just a month ago and it was my first time going and they have a $ 28 package for french or 2 glitter gel or 1 colour and 15 rhinestones or something. I just got glitter tip and extensions. I would say cherry works really really fast. I actually prefer that then sitting there for 3 hours having my hand cramp lol. Their english isn’t great, I didnt know how to say chunky glitter in chinese since i’m not amazing in cantonese so there was a bit of a hard time to communicate. She didnt take her time to push back my cuticles and cut them and do all that. She just toke the nail buffer and went for it. She fnished within an hour and those nails lasted me 3 weeks but I got tired of them cause they were growing too long and I went in again to get the removal and she didnt remove all of the gel for me cause she said my nails were too thin but that removal cost $ 10. I think this place was worth it for the price since I’ve paid 70 and had them break with in a week. My total came up to $ 38.

I haven’t been to see Cherry since last November because I’ve been super busy with work and just haven’t had the time to haul myself up to Steeles & Kennedy to get my nails done. My natural nails have completely grown out so I needed to have a new fullset done. I had a remaining package visit left so I booked an appointment last Thursday and went to get something fun and glittery done! She seemed a bit rushed and laid the gel on thick and unevenly and was finished in about 40 minutes — even the cheap nail bars take about an hour, so that should have been my first clue that something wasn’t right. The design was pretty, but when I went home I noticed right away that the gel didn’t go all the way to the base of my nail and 2 days later at work I banged my nail into a drawer and the entire gel chip came right off! In all my years of having gel nails done this has never happened! Upon closer inspection it seems that my natural nail wasn’t roughed up very much so the gel didn’t adhere properly. I also noticed hat my natural nail tips seemed to be curling away from the gel tips(that’s the only way I can describe what it looks like, but basically the gel and the nails were separating). I lost another gel chip 2 hours later into my shift so that night I was able to PEEL of the rest of my nails with little effort. Anyone that has ever had gels or acrylics knows that they need to be removed either by filing or soaking in acetone and should never PEEL off! I’ve used up my package visits for Salon Plus and seeing as Beatrice Y had a similarly disappointing experience I probably won’t be going back any time soon.
