I have spent years at the Wellness Lounge and have seen prices rapidly increase over this time. I chose to remain here, however, because they have employed some wonderful people and talented nail technicians over the time. This time however, my nails were not done properly and began chipping after 3 days. Not wanting to offend the trainee that did my nails I decided to leave it. This was until 2 more nails severely chipped within the following 4 days. I called the owner to explain what had happened. As a long standing customer -who has introduced other long standing customers, even recommending another potential long standing client as recently as last week - I was told that she would repair the 3 nails; for a customer such as myself who has spent hundreds of pounds on countless treatments across maybe 5 years, I would rather expect a complimentary shellac but alas this was not to be. In fact I would have to PAY for the repair of the 3 nails as the "policy" stipulates that beyond 2-3 days, the customer must pay. Absurd! Shellac is supposed to last for 2 weeks. It was my consideration of the trainee that had me miss this window in the first place! That aside, the "policy" being referred to is yours Manager.
The inconvenience of having to go back sooner than intended could have been easily pacified with some great customer service. For me this complaint is less about what you did do (deliver a poor treatment on this occasion) and more about what you didn't care enough to do! You completely abandoned any basic principles of customer care and I am more than disappointed in the Wellness Lounge.
You have needlessly lost a good customer here.
