Skyline Salon Reviews, Prices, Services, Photos

I love this salon. Alice does amazing work and my SNS manicures last for 3-4 weeks. Everything is also so clean here. All of the metal tools come out of a sealed bag and files/boards are single use. The prices are also extremely reasonable for this area. This salon is definitely a hidden gem.

I don’t generally give bad reviews, and I’m not necessarily going to now, as I think maybe I personally just had a bad experience here as most of the reviews are very positive.

I went in with medium-length natural nails and wanted an off white very natural French manicure, and left with super short neon pink nails.

When I sat down, I was asked if I wanted a cut and file, which I heard and cut OR file, and I said file only. I have just recently been able to grow my nails out after not being able to due to some health reasons, and I have been taking extremely good care of them lately. Because of this, I just wanted a little file to keep them healthy and nothing more. After I said this, my tech (whose name I did not get) picked up the nail clippers and said she wanted to even them out, and I said okay because she is the professional and I wanted to trust her. She ended up going to my longest nail and trimmed it more than I would’ve liked, but it wasn’t too crazy. Then she went and clipped EVERY other one of my nails, even the ones that were already that length. She ended up trimming one of my thumbs (pictured) ALL the way down to the skin. I asked her again please not too short, and I didn’t hear what she said after that, but then she filed them all down some more.

I supposed I should’ve said something as soon as I sat down but I thought I communicated what I wanted but it seems like I did not. At this point I was already upset (not at her particularly, just at the look of my nails and hands now) and was worried that the French tip would look ugly now that my nails were so short. What I DIDNT expect was instead of my tech using a dainty and precise French tip brush on my nails, she slabbed a whole BUNCH of white polish on my finger and wiped the excess off with a brush with alcohol. I know this is not uncommon, but I hate this method, and it made my already stumpy nails look atrocious. I have a poor quality picture of it below, but you can see how blocky it is.

I asked her if I could please change it to red, as I don’t like how my nails looked in short French. She didn’t seem annoyed or anything (but the whole time she didn’t seem to care that much either) and she got me the samples to pick from which I really appreciated. I picked a color called “deep pink” which, if you see below is not exactly what I would call it. Granted, she did give me a chance to change it but at this point I was so defeated I just went with it. This part I admit I could’ve fixed but I was honestly just trying to get through it at this point.

Now, for a short neon manicure it’s great! It is just not at all what I wanted. Unfortunately I really only budget to be able to get my nails done once every other week, so I am stuck with these but honestly I may just take them off because it is not my style and I really don’t like to look at them, it was very disappointing.

The salon itself was clean and pretty, and for the most part everyone was kind. I would just recommend telling your tech EXACTLY what you want before they even touch your nails, because this was doomed from the beginning.

Also- I’m not sure if there was an option to tip as she didn’t give me a receipt to sign. I still wanted to leave a tip but I didn’t see an envelope to use or a tip line to sign so I hope they at least compensate them more if it is the case that they do not takes tips.

My mom and I went to this place for the first time, just to remove gel and have regular nail polish. We were very happy with their service. I don’t go to salon very often and don’t know much. The reception was very nice and understanding. I didn’t feel uncomfortable or awkward at all. The staff (Kim) was very gentle and detailed. the lady who worked on my mom’s nails was good too. We were so happy with the results.

This was my fourth or fifth time visiting skyline salon and they have never disappointed! Prompt service, attention to detail, and always able to deliver professional, clean nail designs. I have had both Yuki and Tina do my SNS Tipped nails, and both have done great jobs. The attached picture was done by Tina.

Thina was my nail technician, she did a great service for me with her experience, she was very helpful and knowledge what i was looking for. aside from her service the price is quite high for a acrylic nails tho. But I will give a 5 star review for their service.
