1 review of Tipz 'N' Toez

Unfortunately since moving away from Rye, I was no longer able to visit my regular nail salon, who have been treating my nails for the past 18 months. So I decided to visit Tipz N Toes in Paddock Wood. Every 4 weeks I have a luxury shellac manicure, which took my previous manicurist 1 hour and the results were wonderful every time. Oh dear, what a complete disappoint TnT was. At the point of booking, I stated I wanted a Shellac manicure, at no point was I told they didn't use Shellac, but an alternative product, which I've now realised is far inferior to Shellac and had the most awful smell.
On arriving at Tipz N Toez, the small, somewhat dirty room stank of a mixture of body odour and nail products, it was almost impossible to breathe; I felt very sorry for the girls working all day in such a pungent environment, clearly not good for their lungs. My manicure started with a nail soak to remove my existing shellac, this was the first issue, as my previous manicurist would apply a small amount of remover fixed with cotton wool and tin foil, as this was the safest way to remove the shellac, without having to immerse all my fingers in a bowl of toxic material. Secondly the removal of shellac started, where the manicurist attempted to file it off!!! rather than gently scrape it off with the correct equipment. My nails were a lot thicker going in, than coming out, to the point where some were bendy!! I've never hand bendy nails :-(
I then received a 'luxury' hand scrub, which was florescent pink and contained in what looked like a MacDonalds sauce dispenser. The hand massage wasn't any better, with clearly very cheap cream, in a cheap looking bottle. Finally the polish was applied, no base coat? 2 coats of the fake shellac and one top coat, then out the door. A few hours later, when I'm far enough away that it's not worth returning to complain, the paint starts chipping and bubbling at the corners, 2 days on I have managed to peel off 7 paint from my nails. I imagine I was able to peel it off because it wasn't applied properly or because it's a crap product they are using? Either way, money down the drain, thinner nails and a very unhappy customer, who will never return!
