Please note that I am writing specifically to review my experiences with Boyd, one of the nail technicians at Carolyne's. I think the salon itself is adequate -- stylish but not overly-pretentious decor, a super convenient location, and a very indulgent and current selection of guilty pleasure US Weekly, OK and Vanity Fair magazines. It's obviously very girlie-oriented and I always feel like I am treating myself when I'm there. Boyd, however, is way more than adequate! He is one of the only people who I will trust with my fingernails -- best manicures I have ever had! I have natural nails and I am so protective of letting "just anyone" have their way with my delicate nail beds. Boyd is a pro and is just as OCD about nails and polish as I am. The polish selection at Carolyne's has got to be best-in-class: all the technicians share, and I swear you can name an OPI seasonal shade from 4 years ago and someone will know exactly what you're talking about and locate it for you! To boot, I genuinely enjoy spending time with Boyd -- just fun and a pleasure. Sometimes I will also pop in for a pampering pedicure, and I highly suggest the new chocolate-scented scrub/mask/lotion products. Mmmmm.... The next time you feel like you deserve an upgrade from one of those walk-in places, consider paying a bit more and making an appointment with my boy Boyd!
