After a few sets of expensive nails at beauty salons that all fell off within a week of having them done, I finally bit the bullet and tried a standard salon in hopes I'd have them on for longer than 72 hours. I was pleasantly surprised, they're actually pretty good- no lifting or breaking and filed properly rather than left tacky at the edges. They had an amazing special on $30 for a full set. The best part? They only took 45 minutes out of my day rather than the 2 hours + I've had to deal with in other places. Yes, they don't really talk but if you're anything likes I don't mind. No need to use effort to maintain conversation, just relax and enjoy a pampering session. I will definitely be back and I'll be getting a pedi as well! Keeping prices reasonable for the service like what I paid will keep people coming back, thanks professionail!

Approximate cost: $30

Run by friendly staff, this is a very well set-up place for getting your nails done. I usually go for a pedicure. They have massage chairs that work your back as your feet gets pampered with a foot bath, foot massage and a full pedicure. The whole session lasts between 40 - 45 mins. There are always satisfied customers getting manicures and pedicures when I visit; from teenage girls coming after school to grannies.
I usually pay half the price for the same type of pedicure when I'm in the USA but this is the only place I've found in the Hobart area that provides such service so I'm glad to support this 'tradie'.
