Professionail

When I was here I had to wait forever while the nail technicians all spoke to each other at the tables the entire time. They cut my cuticles so they bled. It is also incredibly cramped for the size of the shop. I will not go back in a hurry

I recently went to Professionail Albany to get arcrylics on my finger nails and eyelash extensions, so I spent well over $100. Unfortunately, the whole experience was a total waste of money,.

A/ I get acrylics done fairly recently (although not usually at this salon), and the guy that did them here filed them down far too thin, so that within a week and a half, 4 of them had broken/snapped off. I have literally never had a single acrylic snap on the first time getting them done before, but these were almost breaking off daily. I'm not rough on them - I work in a office, so no manual labour or anything. It's a complete waste of money when almost half of them break off shortly after getting them done. The guy also didn't speak enough English to understand the nail shape/length that I asked for.

B/ I don't get lash extensions done on the regular, but have had them 4-5 times in the past of special occasions. I've never had a problem with them before, but ended up with an infected eyelid from these ones shortly after I got them. This was incredibly painful and inconvenient, not to mention rather unattractive. I have no trust in their hygiene practices after this horrible experience... The girl who did my lashes also managed to glue both of my eyes closed so that I couldn't open them without her first removing the glue. Which was painful.

C/ Speaking of hygiene - I noticed that they still shave the skin off your feet with a razor blade here when you have a pedicure. When I went to the other salon in Westfield Albany to get my broken nails re-done, this salon had a sign up saying it is now illegal for salons to shave the skin off your feet, for health and safety reasons. But Professionail Albany still do it... Go figure.

Beautiful acrylic nails for only $40. Years ladies are so lovely. The shop is clean and hygienic . My daughter and I love coming here .

* lovely staff friendly service! Will def go back there. Highly recommend!

price is ok but service didn't give me a "wow", the girl who did my nail doesn't seem to love her job and look a bit grumpy.
