McLean Nails & Spa

Look… I get it. It’s normal for spa techs to be talking in their native language. It’s another thing for them to be blatantly rude when you ask a question. For example, I had a question about the cost of a specific service. Instead of responding, she clearly said something in Vietnamese to her coworker who both started talking about me. She was annoyed when I told her that I would want the basic service and not the upgrade. She started yelling something in Vietnamese again to which I just decided to leave. Upon charging me, she said they have a minimum credit charge of $ 15. There is no sign indicating this anywhere. She pointed to an atm machine somewhere in the shopping complex. I explained I had no atm card to her and she annoyingly accepted my visa. Seriously… Never going back here again.

This nail salon is great. It is relaxing and the staff are super friendly. I recommend Jenny and Cindy. My manicure was super thorough and they even did a special dry glitter manicure which is not done in this area. I will be coming back regularly and their prices are very reasonable. If you want a spa experience in a nail salon this is the place for you.

As a new resident of Great Falls, I had a basic manicure/​pedicure last Friday. Sandra was my nail person, and I was grossly disappointed and will not return.
Sandra was late to my appointment b/​c she ate her lunch screeching in conversations across the salon in Vietnamese (I think). 20 minutes late, she arrives at my pedicure chair and proceeds to begin without recognizing that a human being was attached to the feet she attacked.
I thought perhaps Sandra was racing against the clock, her pace so fast I feared a nick or cut would send me to the ER. I felt my body was objectified as she man handled my feet filing, cutting, scrapinig furiously at break neck speed. The screeching in Vietnamese across the room between 2 other nail «technicians» continued throughout the 45 minutes I endured in the chairs. They yucked it up laughing, etc, and when they returned to their «clients,» the laughter stopped.
I did NOT observe ANY sterilization tools used with any of the implements Sandra used. Once, she appeared dissatisified with the scissors she had, and she opened a drawer and found another pair. NO STERILIZATION.
I’ve never had a basic manicure/​pedicure in 45 minutes flat, door to door. Never again.

I decided to check out this place for basic information while I was waiting for tire repair at the gas station across the street. There was no plan to do anything that day, but they were so convincing and friendly… I went for it. I had my very first Pedicure and eyebrow wax. The Pedicure was very relaxing, they give you a leg massage with some type of bath salts. They do a soak, rinse and repeat method before cutting the nails and sloughing away calluses. Afterwards I had my toe nails painted. We had to rush through the eyebrow wax but that was my fault. All in all it was a decent price, pleasant, and relaxing experience!
