X-Quisite Nails

I’m pretty loyal to my usual nail biz, but I was nearby X-​Quisite Nails and had time to kill while waiting for my oil to get changed next door at Tuffy. I was due for a pedi and no-​chip mani, so I though eh, why not?
The salon was completely empty at about 3 p.m. on a Tuesday afternoon. There were 3 nail technicians working. I was immediately rushed to choose a color before even explaining what kind of services I needed. Typically, I prefer to view the no-​chip options for my mani first, then I can find a matching toe nail color based off of that. But no, I was instructed to choose my toe nail polish.
The color options are weak, but I went with a light pink OPI color. I was shown to my pedicure chair and asked to put my feet in the water. To my surprise the water was cool (um… shouldn’t this be hot water?). While he got started on my pedi I was able to look through their no-​chip polish options. Maybe I’m spoiled at my usual nail salon, because they have a ton of no-​chip color options (and toe nail polish labeled to match) — this place, not so much.
I finally found a light neutral color and decided to go with that. This of course made me change my mind on my toes, and I went with a brighter bolder coral color instead. The pedicure itself was alright. Nothing fancy that’s for sure. Scottie my nail technician was very friendly. While he worked on my feet someone else foiled up my fingers to remove my no-​chip.
Next up was my polish change. A girl helped me out with this. Again, there wasn’t anything special about it, but the manicure turned out just fine. It cost me $ 25 for a no-​chip polish change and $ 25 for a regular spa pedicure. Pretty standard. They accept credit cards for payment, but tips are cash only.
Honestly, I feel like X-​Quisite needs to up there game in the pampering/​customer service department and get better nail polish options in order to compete with the other nail salons in the area!

I thought this place was pretty great. It’s clean and has tons of stands. So, even during the weekend, I don’t think there’d be much of a wait. A pedi on a Thurs. was $ 28…not bad but not that cheap either. Overall, I recommend it.
