On Feb. 18th, my cousin and I decided that we should do our nails to pamper ourselves.
I booked a day earlier around because all the free appointments that they had didn't suit my time, It is located in Jassim Tower in Kuwait city and it has its own parking which is essential, 1 point location which is easy to find and 1 point for the parking.
I received a call at 1:30 pm to confirm my appointment, and when we arrived we were seated immediately, which is 1 point. The place was overwhelmed with pink and blue, girly but not too childish, each seat has its own partition for privacy, the employees are extremely nice and friendly. 1 point for punctuality, 1point for atmosphere and décor, and 1 point for hospitality.
The first stands that I've noticed when entering was Miss Manicure, inside there were more stands from zoya, Essie, OPI, Nicole, and much more, next to the nail polish collections they had a small display for nail art and minx treatment.
On the counter they displayed the new collection of nail polish, I choose OPI from Nicki Minaj's collection fly if I wasn't mistaken, when we sat the manicurist gave us the menu to choose a treatment, the first two pages had various treatments, the third and the fourth page had the gel and the acrylic, the last pages had extra services they offer such as eye brow waxing and threading, henna art, and so on. I rated them 1 point for variety of nail colours and nail art designs, and 1 point for verity of treatments offered.
I choose Papaya Paradise Manicure, it's a bit more expensive, but as they say you get what you pay for. First as I was seated they offered me a beverage of my choice and gave me a heated bean bag for my neck, then after fixing my nails and filing them with new tools, the manicurist scrubbed my arms with papaya scrub. After cleaning the sugar scrub of my arm with a warm towel, she applied papaya lotion then wrapped it and I wore heated bean bags on the shape of mittens! the warmth sealed the moister in my skin.
After removing the wrap she applied grape seed oil on my arms then wrapped it again and wore another warm bean bag on my hand, once it was removed she gave me a massage and removed the oil from my nails then applied nail polish. The best thing was that they brought the nail polish dryer to me instead of going to the machine.
My cousin chose Tutti Fruity manicure, they used a fruit lotion and wrapped it, they didn't use a scrub nor warm bean bags on her hands, but it costs much less than the Papaya Manicure.
Both manicurists were friendly and didn't have an attitude, 1 point for hygienic tools used, and 1 point for a great attitude from employees.
Before we left, the manicurist packed the tools she used for my nails in a bag along with 2 free files, a pink candy and a blue lollipop resembling the colours of the salon.
My rating for the price would be 0.5, although the price of the basic manicure is average yet the other treatments are a bit pricey.
My overall rating for the salon would be 9.5/10, I would definitely visit this spa again, maybe next week, and it would be nice if they offered facial ... maybe in the future we would see this service? Hopefully :D
