There can be no doubt there are review trolls. Ppl with a grudge or
nothing better to do than skew review polls to the negative. OTOH,
while I'm sure many Viet nail salons are jes fine, there are also many with
serious problems. The number of fungus outbreaks at Viet nail salons
reached almost epidemic proportions in CA. If I recall, ppl actually
died from flesh eating bacteria, in some cases. Still, gotta take
into acct the press being less than honest.
