Bollinger Nail Salon in Livermore

If I could I would give this place zero stars! So I got a coupon in the mail and decided to use it...had a really bad mani/pedi on a tuesday afternoon...basically she slapped on lotion and did not massage it in...the only plus was that the chairs felt good (but heck they are new!)..but my mani lasted a good 5 days (I reapply a good quality top coat every other day) so I was like okay I have another coupon I'll bring a friend...
BIG MISTAKE! we went as soon as they open on sat morning thinking that not too many people would be there that early and we wouldnt be rushed. Complete opposite. Agian I didnt feel a massage, and she slapped on lotion. She pretty much rushed the entire service so that she could put someone else in my chair. I brought my own nail polish color (Their selection is really bad! so as I didnt want to put up with their really bad colors I brought my own dark red color) and ended up with polish all over my skin and cuticles! Like if I wanted it to look like I did it myself I wouldnt be in here paying for it!

Anyway..my friend and I were escorted to the sitting area so our nails can air dry (note they don't have dryers!) we asked if they could clean it up a bit...so they came over and attempted to clean it up...still was not very good but I didn't want to keep pin-pointing how bad the mani and pedi was.

So when we left we felt like we got ripped off (eventhough we had a coupon it was still overpriced for the service!) and exactly 2 hours later my polish chipped, and a day later both my friend and I had chipped polish on every finger!

Be warned: Do not come here! It's really sad becuase the atmosphere really seemed like it would be a great place, but nope! I've been to almost all of the places in Livermore and so far the best is Serenity Nails & Spa next to ruby hill...a little pricy but you really get what you pay for here!!
