    Sns mani
    Teri K.

    I was able to walk in and get the best SNS manicure. So nice and professional. Reasonable prices. I will definitely be back!

    New to the area and I scheduled for the first time today. I noticed he started painting my nails without doing any service on my heels. I asked the manager and he said I was supposed to be offered a menu of add ons which my tech never offered me. The mananger's only response was "sorry, next time." I honestly felt a little discriminated against because the people around me were apparently all got offered the menu so i just left without even looking at my nails and this is what they looked like when I got to my car. Polish on my left big toe, weird angled cut on my right big toe, and the corners are cut weird. I already don't love my toes and I thought i'd do something nice for myself but I declined the lotion massage and brought my own polish so basically I paid $28 + $5 tip for my nails to be cut crooked and painted.

    Stumbled across great nails tonight needing my nails done last minute before a trip and honestly this was the best manicure I've ever had - Bobby made my nails look PERFECT!! I'm so happy with them and will for sure be coming back! I also never leave reviews but felt like I needed to because the experience was just so great.

    First time going to this hidden gem. Jennifer was my nail tech and she was so amazing! Great service definitely going back.

    Gave them a second chance after not being 100% happy with my first visit, and got the most perfect dip manicure I've ever gotten from Bobby. My husband asked if they were my real nails because they looked so perfect, lol! Bobby was so thorough in making sure my nails were flawlessly filed to exact lengths and polished with no gaps (I've had that problem before at other salons). He made sure I was happy at every step of the process. My nails look even better than the inspo photos I showed him! I'll definitely be returning.

    I'm so freakin' glad I decided to try this place. I've been in Austin for several years now and have moved around a bit--so I've tried a lot of different places all around town. There are lots of places but I was really impressed with this place unlike others. First off, the location is great. Right in the Brodie shopping center, you could make a great day out of it, nails and shopping! There is lots of parking, it being in a large area. And the place itself is super clean and nice. There aren't TVs or anything fancy, but it's everything you need in a nail place. Second--the people are so nice! There younger guy at the front, who I assume is a manager or owner, is really sweet and funny. There others who worked on my nails were very kind and helpful. I tend to be super indecisive on colors, and they were very patient with me, even when I switched my nail color after seeing it go on the first nail. And they an amazing job! That's third: they do a meticulous mani-pedi. I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. There are also menu options for types, like basic, spa, etc and I just went for the basic. Regardless, my guy did a great foot massage--something most places lack. Like I was in heaven for a few minutes there. And the my nails look awesome, then and still a few days later. Lastly, the pricing!!! I got a gel manicure and regular-basic pedicure for $56!!! That is some of the best pricing I've found, for a great job in a clean place. Such a find!! So definitely recommend. I will for sure be back and may even just be loyal to one place for now! This place really is GREAT.

    Repeat customer for 3 years of best nail technicians worldwide. I've traveled far east and west of America, Italy, and Spain yet I find myself here anytime I'm in town for a SNS manicure and hot stone pedicure. Thank you Jennifer , Bobby, and Vanessa for your dedication to your small business to make Great Nails ingrained in our Austin community.

    Really loved my visit here today! I've been twice, once with my sisters and then today. The nail tech was awesome! He's an older gentleman that sits in the back towards the left. Both times he's done my nails by coincidence! I love the shape and color of my nails. He was extremely detail oriented, attentive and kind. This place is soooo affordable too!

    My nails always look great and they are very friendly. Highly recommend this place! Will always come back here!

    Another Great Experience After trying to do my own nails for the last year, I finally wanted pretty nails that looked feminine and healthy. Vanessa gave me a beautiful new set of gel extensions and added a two color design that I had seen on an earlier post on yelp. Mine are a little longer than the photo. I'm very happy and look forward to enjoying the way my hands look!

Literally hundreds of dollars spent there for over a decade, and I was blown off today. Because I had the audacity to try to call them, not once, but THREE different times, and they never answered the phone. Desperately trying to let them know that I was running 4 minutes late. Four. They refused to go beyond a five minute grace period. When this place changed to one location, off William Cannon, I was not the only one impacted. There were many of us who were loyal to the 47th St. location, but who kept coming down south, even though it's over a 40 minute drive, because we like the brand. It's this sort of customer loyalty that businesses should be grateful for! Instead? I got no phone call, no follow up email, no attempt to touch base with me to try to work this out, and come to a better understanding. Nothing. So thank you for using me for my money! Way to go. It's not about the money. It's not about not being allowed to be four minutes late. It's about being blown off, when local businesses tout building relationships" with clients. My going there for 12 years, was that not proving that I was loyal? Fuck You, Waxing Studio. Those of you who want to go there still, that's on you. Beware of being blown off, and treated like you are a cog in the machine, just like anybody else. It's that sort of corporate BS I was hoping to avoid in the first place. Period.

Hell yes. I went to Elizabeth about once a month over the course of six months for a series of facials before I got married. In each session, she asked me how my skin had been acting, what kinds of activities I had been engaging in (good and bad, i.e., smoking), and created a personalized session for that appointment. She also educated me about the crappy face supplies that I had been using (without making me feel stupid) and got me started on an organic, gentle line of skin care that has done wonders for me. My face literally was glowing after every session. She is also EXCELLENT at waxing; my eyebrows look awesome. OH! And at about 5' 2", she totally adorable and not intimidating at all.

Yelpers have never done me wrong, so I called to book right away. My call was returned promptly and we discussed my wants/needs/options. I have never received a facial before so I wasn't sure what to expect. Orange Blossom does custom facials so Elizabeth said to come on in and we'd decide what was best. The location is in a little office park, but feels like a little old house inside. there are a couple of rooms and it is very peaceful. Elizabeth is as cute as a button, was very friendly, and instantly put me at ease. Once I wrapped up in a velvetly robe and tucked myself into the softest bed/table ever, she got to work. She decided on a deep cleanse, but did all sorts of stuff. We spoke briefly about my skin care routine and other than answer any questions I had (she was very patient, I had many, and was pretty nosy about the whole expereince), it was very relaxing. Whatever she did with paprika felt amazing, and I liked the mud mask and the facial massage. Ok, so I liked it all! I'd asked about a specific product and she introduced me to it at the end fo the session. It wasn't sale-sy at all (in fact, i'm wondering if or how she sells any product if the customer doesn't take the initative) and I got a great under eye product from Colorscience. Definitely a brand I'll look into since she gave me a sample of the Primer to try - which I did this morning - and love it! So my skin looks and feels fabulous. My pores are invisible and my face is seriously soft! This is definitely something I am going to have to save up for and do again!

The waxing itself is great; I prefer hard wax and appreciate how efficient the appointments are. I've worked with several, more senior specialists over the years, and they've all been great, friendly aestheticians. I've also had great service booking by phone or online. That said, I'm pretty sure I just had my last appointment, and the reasons have nothing to do with the quality of the service (hence why I'm still giving 5 stars). The reasons are more about how the business is run: 1. High Turnover. It's not a good sign that these facilities run through aestheticians. If you find someone you like and trust, it's highly likely that person will leave within about 2 years. Find another person, same thing. Rinse and repeat. 2. Treatment of Women. For this to be a place that primarily serves women, I've continued to hear about European Wax Center's less-than-ideal arrangements for female staff. No maternity leave? No flexible work schedules for new moms? I'll take my business elsewhere for the time being, but I do hope the owners/managers of these locations will take this feedback to heart and make some improvements.
