  1. Mani/Pedi. I've been going to this cozy country retreat for 5 years.
  2. had a VERY bad experience at another place and only go to top notch waxing place - I am always comfortable at Sweet Lily!
  3. The decor in this new downtown spot is absolutely wonderful and spaceous.
  4. Warm atmosphere from the welcome and the manager even took the time to talk to me about the non toxic polishes.
  5. It was truly "shabby chic" in the best sense of the phrase, with big comfy chairs to sit in while you're getting your pedicure and a warm, feminine look for the decor, as opposed to the sterility of most salons.
  6. This Nail Spa had simply the hippest, most chic, most stylish, but simultaneously most comfortable and relaxing atmosphere of any I have ever been to, and I have been to many (see title of the review).
  7. The service is excellent, the products are excellent, as well as the atmosphere.
  8. The big chairs for the pedicures looked cozy, though, and everything was impeccably clean.

value

  1. Owner should learn tipping the poor tech does not justify poor value.
  2. When I arrived for my appointment with a corporate group, the owner had a terrible attitude and was not accommadating to our requests even after we had spent a significant amount of money.
  3. The Sweet & Simple Pedicure, which I received, was a great treatment for the money.
  4. and the price isn't bad at all!
  5. they (the receptionist) had a huge attitude, then she did not enough girls for all of us that did attend to get our manicures and pedicures done at the same time.
  6. they do great nails and have great mani n pedi deals at a reasonable prices.
  7. Shocked, I explained that I wanted my *very expensive* mani / pedi to dry before I left.

Great service and beautiful space

by ddeamer

Tried out Sweet Lily because I purchased a groupon....couldn't have had a more pleasant experience. I was offered tea and the girl who did my nails was really good. I totally relaxed in the cute rocking chair while my nails dried. Warm atmosphere from the welcome and the manager even took the time to talk to me about the non toxic polishes. I'll definately go back again!

  • Pros: great space, not rushed
  • Cons: wish there was one in my neighborhood

A lesson in terrible customer service

by citypomme

I WAS a regular customer at Sweet Lily, despite their very high prices. Time after time, I was made to wait for my mani / pedi despite long-standing appointments. Still I said nothing because it's hard to find a clean place, and the technicians were good and friendly. The last straw came when the owner one day wanted to close shop early. I had had my appointment booked two weeks prior to this, mind you, and called to confirm it the day before. Instead of being told that I would be the last appointment of the day, the owner said nothing. The day of my treatment, she told me they'd be doing my manicure first, which I found annoying because it left me with no time for my pedicure to dry. Once the services were finished, the owner literally turned off the lights and a.c. and started to pull the window grate down. Shocked, I explained that I wanted my *very expensive* mani / pedi to dry before I left. The owner told me -- on a 90 degree day -- to sit on the bench in front of the store, because she had a wedding to go to. I told her I didn't think that was right, and that she should have warned me she needed to hurry me out. She literally said "fine, sit here all goddamned day!" SERIOUSLY? What a B! The least she could have done was warn me when the appointment was made! that was it for me. On many occasions prior I witnessed what a ditz she was. Totally unprofessional. I'd rather spend the money at Jin Soon or Rescue! Nicer spas, anyway.

  • Pros: Good technicians, clean.
  • Cons: Manager is unprofessional and unreliable.

Lovely!

by CSMobileUser3

Sweet lily is one of the loveliest places to visit in the city for a Mani/Pedi. I've been going to this cozy country retreat for 5 years. The service is excellent, the products are excellent, as well as the atmosphere. The ladies that work there are very Lind and sweet, they know what they're doing. I usually get the cucumber Pedi and lavender mani. I always feel pampered, and it is a nice place to take your BFF for a girls day and get mani's and pedi's.
