    Nail Montage in Maple Grove is awesome!  They also started offering the Shellac manicure, which I just got on Tuesday for a wedding on Saturday & it's holding up really well!  = )

    I don't know where you're located, but Happy Nails in St. Paul does it for $40.  And they do an awesome job!

    Salon Lili in Minnetonka does it as well. If you go, ask for Abby. She's awesome.

    I just went to Nail Montage in Maple Grove yesterday for the first time. They did a great job. Two pieces of advice though, print the 20% off for first customer coupon from their website. Second if you want to keep your length say NO when they ask if you want them shorter. I made the mistake of saying yes and they cut my nails really short! I just wanted them a little shorter so they were more even. At least I have a couple months to grow them back and hopefully if I keep up with them they won't break. At least they are all the same length right now...

    Yep they are picky about french tip and nail length. I did the same thing and watched in horror as she cut mine really short. It was the time before getting them done for the wedding and they were the perfect length by then.

    Shan my only comforting thought is exactly what you said, at least they are all the same length now and I have 2 month to grow them to the length I want!!

    I can't think of the name of the little nail salon, but it is right by Wal-Mart in St. Anthony, not far from 694 or 35W.  I went there for the first time last week and they did a great job.  $30 for the manicure.  I can't remember what brand of the gel polish they used.

    I did a gel manicure with french tips at Elite Nail Spa in Apple Valley!  I had purchased a groupon awhile back for a $14 gel manicure and only had to pay $5 extra for french tips.  I got it 11 days ago and it still looks great with the exception of a few tiny scratches on my right thumb from honeymoon hiking in the Rockies!
