Janeva J.

I will never spend another penny here! From my experience, they don't stand on their craft! They are overpriced for the low quality work they do! I got French tip gold chrome .. this was also a fill. You can see bubbles on the chrome tips, the tips are crooked, and on my left hand .. the tips are thicker than my right! A complete waste of money and time!! The customer service was nice but the actual work was shameful, and terrible!

I've been going here for about a year now + it's the best place hands down. the pricing is affordable + the quality of work is very good. my nail tech (not saying her name because I gotta gatekeep her as much as possible ) has great attention to detail + is such a sweet person! for as long as I live in austin, I will always get my nails done here. it does get pretty busy around the weekends so I do call days ahead to make an appointment.

I've been coming here for over 10 years, great service, relaxing atmosphere and reasonable prices. The art work is fantastic! Just take a picture of what you want and they'll do it! It can get busy in the afternoon so call ahead if you can.

Had the most luxurious experience with my lavender pedicure. Not only do I love the smell of lavender but I received such a great leg massage that I will be going back at a minimum, once a month! I also received a manicure, which was just a regular manicure so I might opt for something else next time.

they slow asf they charge for the charms that popped off in a day and four popped off the next day the french tips werent even my design was ugly ruined the whole nail and allat was 150 never again I was there for 3hrs

I recently had my nails done by Tshu and she is amazing! Im very satisfied with my results, show her what your looking for and she'll take care of the rest :)

Just wanna say I've been coming here for about 7 years, can definitely say over the years there has been lots of changes but for the better! I remember coming here when I was in high school to get my prom nails done to now being able to get away for a few hours and have a drink after a long day at work while being able to get my nails done at the same time! Kathy and Maggie are absolutely amazing at what they do. They are always so accommodating and very nice. Ready for Halloween Thank you Kathy!!!

If I give them no stars I would this is just terrible and when I complain there version of fixing it was even worse ..... don't waste your money

Amanda S.

If I could give zero stars I would I didn't want to waste my time writing a review but now I got too. Took me and my daughter for mani and pedi yesterday, obviously they finished my daughters mani/ pedi before finishing my pedicure. I asked if I could come back in morning because I didn't want my daughter to wait while I had my nails done also we were both getting hungry it was close to closing time. One of the ladies turns to my daughter and say just sit it's ok you be ok. I told her we were hungry and had to leave. She told me to go eat and come back I told them it was close to their closing time and I'm not sure if I would make it back in time she insisted that I come back any way they would wait for me . So out of stupidity I returned the woman rushed and gave me a terrible set I paid 150 I come back to day and respectfully ask if this could be fixed. They all were busy with clients so I said I would go to heb and come back and she talking about they will be closed . They just want your money and have no integrity in their work or service. If your looking for quality service this is not the place. And the gel polish on my pinky toe came off. Ima a single mother of four kids and this should be against the law Love u ladies so I advise avoid this place

I am very impressed with my gel manicure. For $27 I got a manicure that lasted nearly 3 weeks. The manicure it's self wasn't that great or very relaxing and the massage was pretty much non existent. However my nails looked great, the polish was pretty, and it lasted like no other!

Vanessa D.

This a late review. But visit the salon on 2/26/21 and Kim took care of me and a full set and pedi. It was great service and nails came out exactly how I wanted. Will definitely return!

Maggie T.

Worst manicure I've ever received. 1. The technician was so extremely abrasive she literally sliced open the tip of my finger with the emery board. The emery board. That's how abrasive and rough she was. She didn't clean it, but instead she quickly applied superglue to it before I had a chance to say anything. 2. The water for soaking my nails was cold. 3. It was obvious I had dirt under my nails and that was not cleaned out. 4. Polish on my skin around my nails was not cleaned up. 5. She filied my nails further after top coats were applied, leaving my nails jagged and chipped. 6. The lotion "massage" was her squirting lotion on my arms and leaving it on there letting it roll off my arms while she did the post-top coat filing. The "massage" was rubbing lotion on my skin, rotating my hand and then moving to my left arm. At this point she could tell I was extremely upset and tried doing more massage on my left arm but it was still rushed and abrasive. The overall experience was awful. She was so rough and fast that I can honestly say it was the worst manicure and nail salon experience I've ever had. I absolutely will not be back.

Yesterday March 17, 2021 I made an appointment for my mom for a mani and pedi gel, well my mom left super upset! The nails where cut all crooked, the paint job was horrible un even, chunky on certain parts missing color and it had little bubbles! I called them to let them know my mom was upset of how bad of a job they did, I talked to Kim, she told me my mom could come back the next day to get it fix well my mom calls me upset again March 18, 2021 and they had to grind thinly her nails to remove the polish, there is no need for that since it's Gel NOT acrylic or SNS they ruined her nails not only that they where annoyed with her very impatient even tho they where the ones who did a horrible job and they made my mom feel so uncomfortable and got her upset.. PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE they are so Unprofessional and RUDE!

Never. Again. I hate, HATE, writing bad reviews but this was just too much. My polish change looks worse than anything I could have ever done. Just thought I'd come treat myself though. The only saving grace was the actual pedicure part. He cleaned up and polished and my feet look and feel great. Minus the polish job. Too rushed. The young lady working next to him saw what I was dealing with and just shook her head and said, "men!" Got hot wax as part of the pedicure and that was extra without asking/letting me know. Too bad. I wanted to like them because even though they were jam packed, I was seen right away. Oh well! read more

Awful. I got SNS done and the man who did it wasn't playing any attention to what he was doing took phone calls on his personal phone. He forgot to do nails to the point I had to point it out and then he proceeded to paint over the SNS with gel that wasn't even close to the color and when I asked him to fix it he just kind of threw on polish and then CHARGED ME $5 extra. I was so excited to get my nails done and i'm so disappointed. My friends nails looked great but the guy who did mine was terrible and it really isn't worth the risk going there. read more

I came in two days before thanksgiving and got pedicure + gel and manicure + gel =$81 (not including tip). The next day my gel on my thumbs completely came off. I called them and they told me to come in to fix. I did, and she was nice about it. Checked my other fingers, which I appreciated. However yesterday I noticed bubbles and my gel lifting (this is EXACTLY one week) from when I got them done. The gel came right off. It's a bit upsetting that you pay ~$100 with the tip and the gel didn't even last longer than a week. I'm honestly not sure if it's the gel brand kind I picked but shellac polish has never came off that quick. You typically have to put foil to remove. I am beyond disappointed. I will say the establishment looks very nice and the staff was nice as well, but the quality was not there for the cost. read more

It's Ok. Cheap, I guess you get what you pay for. One thing I did not like was that they do not sterilize their equipment. HOWEVER they pretend they do but they don't. I'm in the medical field and have had first-hand experience sterilizing medical equipment, I know what it's supposed to look like. I posed a picture so all of you can see. I know many places don't do real sterilization, they only sanitize their equipment but what this business is doing is FRAUD! They claim something they don't do. Just FYI. The "sterile pouches" they pull out manicure tools out of have never been sealed, have never seen the inside of a sterilizer. THE ONLY way to open a sealed pouch is to pull it apart. (See picture posted) Theirs are unused, I'm sure not new, I have the feeling they reuse the pouches since they are just for show. read more

This place gets packed, but they staff up appropriately for it. Doesn't mean you won't have to wait on occasion though. Sandy took very good care of me the other night. We spent 2 glorious hours together and she was super sweet through the whole thing. She offered to show me how colors would look on my nails and wasn't bothered at all when I didn't like it and she had to take it off and do it again. Special perk - they offer you wine. read more

I hate coming here, yet I continue do to so because it's cheap and directly across the street from where I live. Every time I come in, I'm rushed to sit in a spa chair and soak my feet, then left alone for 20-40 minutes waiting for a technician. Hurrying you to a chair is an obvious ploy to make it difficult to leave when you're inevitably fed up with the wait (and lack of updates as to how long you'll continue waiting). Once someone finally shows up, service is always rushed and the quality of my finished pedicure is mediocre. It usually chips in a week or so, and I've left before to notice that they missed a spot around the edges. ...I really need to find somewhere else. read more

I've been coming here regularly for about a year since it's nearby my house. I've never had any complaints until today. I've been getting SNS on my nails for three years now because it's the best for them and they came out terrible. I think Mary was the nail tech and she just seemed to be in a rush and didn't care how my nails turned out. She did my hands one at a time instead of all the way through and let the powder sit and thicken so it was difficult to file/shape them once she was done applying the powder. I know I should have said something before I left but I didn't have time to stay around and get them fixed read more

Since the pandemic I have not had my toes and eyebrows done so I decided to treat myself. The technician that did my pedicure was in a rush, and sloppy. I actually had to direct her and show her how to do a pedicure properly. The foot massage offered in the $30 pedicure package was a lower leg rub. The hot towel was thrown across my legs instead of wrapped around like the other clients. All the nail polishes I picked 3 different times were old and needed polish remover added. This was the worst ever! So much for treating myself! read more

Pro : Lots of people there to do your nails Cons : They are not exactly patient or courteous, nor communicate well. I was snapped at constantly and impatiently shuffled around without any help with my stuff (shoes, phone, keys, water) at 8 months pregnant. My friend had the bottom of her foot cut open while buffing and told me she had a fever the next day. She also had to go back because on one of her finger nails the entire layer of nail polish came off.. I'd never heard of something like this happening but something wasn't done right for that to occur. The lady doing my pedicure didn't even look at my feet while she was working on them most of the time. She just had a weird attitude and I have no idea why.. Maybe it was because I just got the basic mani/pedi and my friend got an upgraded one? I won't be back.. read more

Worst pedicure I've ever had. They didn't test the water when they ran it and I stepped right in to scalding water. I can handle hot water and pedicures but this was so bad that it instantly made me scream. I should have know to just stop right there and walk away. I asked for the deluxe pedicure, she only gave me a classic ($27)but charged me for deluxe ($37). When I brought it up to the manager she didn't care and gave some lame excuse. Polish was all over my left big toe, and they redid it, only with the wrong color (it's lighter). She cut my big toes crooked and was very rough. I didn't even get a good foot massage.

I don't take my eyebrows lightly, so I…read moreexplained that I wanted a nice arch and mentioned that my shape was a bit off from a previous place. The lady who was going to do my brows her name was Kalpana, I believe. She listened carefully then she called over an expert, Srijana, to ask how best to fix the shape and give me the look I wanted. Srijana gave her some tips, and the result was perfect! My eyebrows turned out thick, clean, and exactly how I wanted. They even left a couple of small spots untouched so the hair can grow in, and they can shape it better next time. There were people waiting over 45 minutes even on a weekday, which shows how popular they are. They offer lots of other services too, but so far I've only tried threading and I can definitely say this is going to be my go-to spot once a month!

I honestly have no idea how it took me so long to find Sugared + Bronzed.I think I may have seen it…read moreand assumed it wouldn't be affordable because it's a custom spray tan, but I am so glad I finally tried them. This is truly the best formula I've ever used. I've done it all: at-home products like St. Tropez, Loving Tan and B.Tan, and every spray option at places like Palm Beach Tan, but nothing has ever given me that deep, natural, authentic-looking tan the way Sugared + Bronzed does. Beyond the quality of the tan itself, the experience is always great. The staff is consistently super kind and welcoming. They can be a little chatty at times, but honestly I think it's just their way of making an otherwise slightly awkward situation feel comfortable since you're usually in a vulnerable setting/half naked during a spray tan. Lauren did my most recent spray and it might be the best one I've had yet. I would highly recommend everyone try them at least once, you really do get what you pay for.

Well, they impressed me and I ended up buying the membership. This was my second service there and it was better than the first. I can't recommend this place enough.

Over time, EWC has gotten more corporate and less customer-focused... it reflects in the way waxing…read moretechniques have changed, how the quality and experience of the estheticians has gone down, the the flexibility of any employee (from managers to front desk staff to technicians) to provide customer solutions over sheer profit, and more. I've had to change waxers over and over again because the estheticians are constantly leaving. First, I have to work hard with the actual service providers to build a relationship over several months to get my services "right." In the 15 min appts it is hard to express the exact brow shape you're looking for, in example. Or, sometimes the technique being used is unnecessarily painful compared to another provider I'd worked with prior. Then, after 6 months it's finally right and then the technician leaves, and the cycle begins again. Plus, EWC is constantly selling to you. "Buy a wax pass" or "try this product." I can't tell you how many worthless unused EWC products I have sitting under my sink that aren't effective, or how many times I wish I had never purchased a wax pass... so I wouldn't be locked in to coming back here when it just keeps getting worse. I don't recommend EWC. Here, or at any other location (by the way, there is no manager here, and they canceled an appt once bc the opener missed her alarm clock, and both of my waxers left bc this whole location is a hot mess)! It's time for me to move onto better, more clientele-focused businesses... even if it leaves my money on the table with the wax pass I was stupid enough to purchase. Like, I would literally rather lose my money than come back here. I hope someone reads this and it helps them pick a better option!

I'm not from Austin Texas and I was looking for a new nail salon to attend, and I found Great Nails! First of all, when I first got there I was amazed at how nice and big the salon was. Two, the workers were so polite and nice. Kim did My nails and she did a fantastic shop! I showed her a video of how I wanted them and she did them just how they appeared on video! I love My nails! Also, I have never gotten gel nails until today and they came out better than what I had expected! I was also skeptical about getting My eyebrows waxed because a previous lady didn't wax them how I wanted. She took too much off and left My eyebrows very thin, leaving Me to grow them back out for a year! Today Ms. Kim did them and I'm very satisfied. I asked her to just shape them and she did, leaving them full/thick but with an arch. read more
