T & C Nails in South Portland, ME

Wow! Was really impressed with this spot. I can not find good nail spots in Maine. I have been to a hundred nail salons between Portland and Bangor that charge ridiculous prices just to barely touch your cuticles, skip on the massage,  screw up your polish and rush you out the door. So honestly I wasn't expecting much here when I decided to walk-in during a mall shopping trip.

I was verrrrrry wrong. This place had everything. I got a menu of different pedicure options while they prepped my feet. I went with one that had paraffin. First nail spot in Maine that I've seen offer paraffin. I was thrilled. The spot itself was nicely decorated and calming. I noticed that even had a cute area with children's chairs for children pedicures. The guy who did my pedicure took time with every step. Great cleaning of my cuticles. Great massage. Loved the paraffin treatment. I walked out with immaculate feet & toe nails. And the prices were in line for what they offered.

I don't know why it has low reviews honestly. It's the best spot I've found in years.

Absolutely IN LOVe with our nails. My friend from out of town (she's from Australia ) was hesitant to go because her standards are here  (not for men tho- after Barbie she expects a Len) but she's in love now. Pls go! It's excellent.

All I wanted was a simple manicure for a treat - just put some nail polish on. I have super short nails and never do anything other than clip them. The technician cut me on 4 different fingers (bleeding) when cutting my cuticles. I don't have any medical conditions or anything that would make it a tricky process. I could have gotten equal results by painting my nails myself (minus the cuts). The technician ignored me and talked to their coworkers in another language the whole time - would have been fine with this if I was sure it didn't contribute to the cuts (not paying full attention). It was extremely fast - the type of speed that clearly means they don't care and it's not their best work. Not going back. *it was the technician at station #14

The one and only time I have had a pedicure, male cis (he/him) {Ze} meaning prefer not to say, I swear by this salon. No pressure, no hate, no assumptions for the "non normality," of more often a customer base of non-male cis (he/him) customer target demographics.  The scrunching of my toes after the choice of toe nail polish, yes I took the plunge; is still an oddity of experience for me. Not at all a bad thing, just unfamiliar. So unfamiliar a feeling of fresh and fun the experience created a yearning to return again and again. Next time I will explore an androgynous nail color selection for what I am labelling as Club{Ze}. I can't wait, it's so good. And for only $25.00 with the gratuity, it's a steal of a price. Because you get a leg massage, TOO! HELLO?

It's ok for the price. Although it's kinda rude carry on conversations with your co-workers in a different language right in front of you.
