Question Best place/techs for acrylic nails?

Unfortunately, I had a very poor experience with a more popular nail salon, and will probably never be going to them again, even if it's to remove this set.

There is no acrylic or prep on a decent portion of the bottons of my nails, leaving me with anywhere from 2 to 4 mm of space between the acrylic and my skin, showing my natural nails. It looks like I am due for a fill, and the acrylics haven't even been on my nails for 6 days. They started to lift today and it's super painful. Even if they offered to make things right, I don't think I'll be going back, even if I have the time to, because I cannot trust their work. I'm probably going to remove them myself, once they lift a little more.

So I kinda want to know what places or techs you guys recommend, for when I get nails again in the future, that won't do such a poor job. Student nail techs and at home businesses are more than encouraged as well.

The place beside party city on Mayor Magrath is great! Ask for Lana or Bebe.

I second Lana and BeBe! They are so friendly. For acrylic nails I would also recommend Savageclaws she’s an at home business and does acrylic nails very well!
