I visited AR Nail Bar about 5 days ago for a quickie pedi and gel polish change. My technician was a lovely woman, so I really hesitated to write this review. However, I sent an email directly to the salon 5 days ago and have not received any response from them whatsoever. After confirming twice that my pedi was try, the tech insisted that I put on my shoes - and even started doing so for me, seemingly in a hurry. When I got home, I saw that three of the nails were smudged. As a result the pedi looks terrible - worse than I could have done myself.
Worse, the tech cut into the flesh of my toe

Update on my last review: after emailing them twice, AR Nail salon finally called me several minutes ago (9 days since the appt). They had the audacity to ask me to "stop by" with my infected toe to "prove it" to them. Don't be fooled - AR Nail Salon is to be avoided. STEER CLEAR OF THIS PLACE (unless you want to waste time and money and get an infection).

Four for it being hit or miss. Sometimes, its great and your nails look wonderful. Other times, not so much. Always clean and professional, though

From the moment we walked in, the workers were rude to me and my two friends I brought with me. We had made an appointment the day before and due to the train delay we thought we were going to be 2-3 minutes late, so we called and let them know. Immediately they tell us with an attitude that our appointment is going to be canceled if were not there right on the dot. So we run across the st and make it 2 minutes early. We arrive and tell them our reservation. They told us that we had to wait and ended up waiting around 20 minutes. During the whole process the nail technicians were annoyed
