I'm always at Albertsons next door but never tried C&V. I needed my gel color changed, it so close to home, figured I'd give it a try. Did a walk in around 3 or 4 pm. They were bust but were able to take me right away. Pretty much the average nail salon you'd encounter all over town. Lots of gel colors to choose from. The woman doing my service did a good job, the gel lasted, so I was pleased but their prices are higher than other places I've been for the same quality so I doubt I'd go back for that reason.
