My ratings for this spa could easily be changed if they advertised it for what it is - a place for esthetician students to come and do their practicums.
I've gone there twice and had the same experience with two different estheticians. Both times, the estheticans all talked with each other about their personal lives while working, and also discussed how their practicums were going. The quality of the work was that of students and not of experienced professionals. This is fine, however, I think the advertising and the price for this type of establishment does not match the quality and experience of the employees.
I will likely not go back there because if I am getting my nails done, I want the color to last and look well done. Also, if I wanted a quick mani/pedi and didn't care too much about a super high quality look, I might go there if the price was cut and if I knew exactly what types of employees are hired. I think it's important to know if there are students or professionals working.

This family-owned business is located in a cutesy redecorated house on Henderson Hwy in Winnipeg. The whimsical decor adds to the intimate atmosphere. For a small group, you can book the place yourself. The salon has 3 pedicure stations and 2 manicure stations in the back room, and another manicure station in front. They also have waxing services (I haven't tried that yet). Unfortunately, I was not wowed by the mani/pedi I received, but was very irritated by the unchecked banter provided by the nail techs reminiscent of a bad night on "Simple Life". However, considering the low price, it's an acceptable alternative to the high-end salons.
