Transcript

About a year ago I saw this creator on here say that she got her nails done in West Seattle and that a fill was like 30 or 35 bucks and a full set was $45, which is like prices from the 90s and I haven't had my nails done in at least 10 years. My husband died 9 years ago so it's been probably 10 years and so I was just feeling some kind of way the other day about wanting to get my nails done and I'm a gardener and my nails are normally like short and my hands are usually busted but garden season's coming to an end so I was like you know what I'm going to schlep down to it's called City Nails in West Seattle on Fauntleroy and I went and saw Ann the owner's name is Linda and I just wanted like basic I wanted square tips um and it was $45 and here they are. Like they're perfect. They're they're great gel. And I know that like nails can go really fancy and like she does like Hellcat gets like the long tapered like it's spiky ones and they do all different shapes. This was the shape I wanted. I don't care if it's like old school or whatever. Um so yeah City Nails in West Seattle will do a full set for $45 and I think a fill is 30 or $35 and a pedicure was $30.
