Great place to get a mani pedi! The nail artists are really good with shaping and SNS which is what I get. The SNS catalog is a little limited but there's always gel if you want something more specific. They are good at executing on whatever you want done and I always leave happy! They're always busy bc it's a great spot! read more

La Vie nail spa is super clean and the minute you walk in, you are asked to wash your hands! This was my first visit and having loved form the Houston area, I'm in search of my new home salon. I met a friend here who comes often, so I was willing to try! Overall, the services were good... I got a gel pedi with hot stones $50 (plus the extra charge to remove the previous gel). Ivy was very sweet and my pedicure looks great! Unfortunately, I needed my nails done as well but the dip powder selection was minimal and nothing matches my new pedi color... I wish Inhad this information prior to choosing a toe color... My nails were ok... nothing terrible but nothing over the top great... I chose a color that would compliment my toes and decided me on a minimal design to jazz it up for the holiday... $124 before tip for both! Definitely more than my precious home salon but I wasn't "wowed" by anything... Cleanliness 5 stars... price on the higher end, salon was quiet on a Monday and the techs were friendly. I wouldn't drive 40 min again but if I'm in the area in the future I would pop in for a pedi read more

I went to this nail salon hoping to treat myself for Thanksgiving, something I only do once a year, but I left feeling disappointed and upset. The customer service was terrible. I was recommended dipping SNS with tips by the receptionist, but as soon as the manicurist arrived, she didn't greet me and approached me in a way that felt rude and unwelcoming. She told me I was looking at the wrong color book, even though it was the staff who handed it to me. Instead of understanding, she gave me so much attitude and rushed through the entire process. My nails are okay. She kept pushing my hand down every time she would finish a nail. I only tipped because I'm just not that type of person to not leave a tip. I've never had such an unpleasant experience before. I can't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Terrible experience. The place was dirty, and the employees told us what we wanted as opposed to listening. My older daughter's nails were bubbled, and had missed spots, and we ended up having the entire tips removed. The employees told a girl sitting next to me that they wouldn't do what she wanted, and insisted on giving her what she didn't want. We left with the wrong colors, totally naked nail beds and stickers as opposed to actual nail art. 10/10 do not recommend. read more

Manis and pedis are treats for many people, and you want to feel relaxed. Alas, I did not get that here. Instead, I felt very rushed in the whole process, in part because they were crowded. That said, I had called earlier to ask for an appointment and came at the designated time, so this was entirely on them. I also was the victim of the unnecessary upsell it seems. I went for SNS nails, but I got talked into professional press on nails, which I only learned were done the same as gel (except with even more UV light) after she had started applying them. I wanted to avoid the UV light, so it was disappointing. They are also $12 more than SNS, too. I also kept asking how long they last, and she would just say "long," which isn't really helpful. I asked if as long as SNS or gel, and she'd say "long." So far, I am 2 days in with no problems, but we'll see in 2 weeks what they are like. The service part of the manicure was lacking, unfortunately. For $65, I expected more of a manicure experience, but it was clear they were trying to get as many people in and out as possible The nails are more square than I wanted them, and when I noted that one thumbnail was crooked, she got a little offended and said she wasn't done (even though she asked me what I thought). Unfortunately, I can still see how that thumbnail remains slightly crooked. The polish looks nice, and I have gotten compliments. She did not address my cuticles at all, and there was no massage to speak of, just a tiny bit of lotion applied in 15 seconds per hand. While this place is convenient enough for me, I think I will keep exploring options for manicures in the future. They aren't terrible, but I expected more for the price. read more

I recently visited La Vie Nail Spa and had an amazing experience! I got SNS nails, which cost $45, and the service was exceptional. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. They cleaned up my cuticles and gave me a little hand massage when I was done. My nails look fantastic, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I'll definitely be returning and highly recommend La Vie Nail Spa to anyone looking for top-notch nail care.

My nails were done horribly to begin with, within 2 days (where I barely used my hands) they were already falling apart. My nail tech messed up multiple times, and when trying to redo them, made them all worse and every single nail was cracked. Not even a week later and my nails are ruined. My nail tech was rushing me the whole time because she wanted to go home and in turn did a horrible and rushed job. read more

They were nice enough to squeeze my friends and I in but the experience as a whole wasn't satisfactory. Very nice decor but quality of service outweighs any fancy chandelier. When we walked in we were met with a bunch of confused stares and some employee rudely saying "wash your hands". Not even a greeting or welcome first. Also the services are overpriced. I'm not sure if they offer champagne to everyone but we weren't offered anything, but someone who arrived after us was greeted nicely and offered a drink. I will say we are a different race than this other customer. It just didn't make me feel good about being in this establishment. Overall I didn't like it here I definitely won't be back read more

Really great every time. I've had a few different technicians work on my nails and every one of them has done a great job. I like the SNS manicure, it lasts beyond two weeks. I used to do gel but I found that it would peel up of you spend a lot of time in the hot tub or steam room but with the SNS I haven't had any peeling or breaks. The salon is very clean and modern with many tv screens on which they usually play Netflix. They also offer wine and other drinks. I won't go anywhere else to get my nails done.

Also, some of the nails were bumpy and uneven but I did love the color.

The techs are very detailed, take their time, and are always pleasant. They have awesome customer service too. Every time I leave so happy and impressed with my nails. I would highly recommend going to La Vie. They're pedicures are fantastic and they always have clean equipment and a clean shop. They are also reasonably priced. $42 for SNS, removing my old SNS polish, and they soak and cut your cuticles. In the photo below, Patrick was the tech who did my nails. read more

I was very excited to try this salon as it is really close to home. The Good: It's new, so the salon is nice and clean. They have about 16 pedicure chairs and the manicure station is in the middle of the salon. The staff are very friendly. The Not So Good: Pedicures range from $34-$80. I am not a pedicure snob--I just like a basic pedicure with a great massage, and can get this many other places for a lot less. Manicures start at $20. Because of the cost, I doubt I will return, but if you don't mind paying more, you'll probably really like this place. read more

Nice salon and the tech was really nice but the main reason for my 2 star review is the pricing. I got a basic gel pedicure and before tip it was $57. I was shocked - I get gel pedicures frequently and the max ive ever paid was $45. They also charged $36 for the pedicure and the remaining amount was gel polish removal and gel polish - a whopping additional $20+. The pedicure was good enough but I've had way better for way less. It seems we're paying for their fancy chandelier. Definitely won't be back as a pedicure shouldnt be $67 with tip. Ever. read more

I strongly recommend the European facial!!! I had Jackie as my esthetician and I was highly impressed, I'm not someone who is easily impressed. She did an amazing job at paying close attention to detail on my face, especially in my trouble spots. She took her time and made me feel important and I will definitely plan to go again to see Jackie. Her services were way more than I had anticipated way more than I expected and I am fully 100% satisfied with the facial she provided on top of the massages she was very friendly, very polite, kind, she wasn't rough, she was all the things you want when you go in for a facial for a spa day, me time relaxation! For 60 bucks totally worth it!!!! I hope they don't change the prices and I really hope they can give Jackie a bigger room she deserves it! So if you have about an hour for some "me" time, go to La Vie Nail Spa and request Jackie for the European facial!!! I promise you will not be disappointed. read more

I wouldn't mind paying this if the service was amazing, but it's just not. My polish always lasts longer when I go elsewhere.

Love this salon. This nail salon is new, beautiful and very clean, (really important to me.) The nail techs are friendly and talented. They really want to do a good job. I have enjoyed each tech I have had. As other reviews have said, it does cost more than the average salon, but I enjoy the experience and am willing to spend the extra money. I would encourage those giving it a try to make sure they understand the full cost of what they are getting. I was surprised by some extra charges my tech forgot to share with me ahead of time. I assumed what I picked would be included in the price of my main service and it wasn't. (I wanted a sparkly nail color and the sparkles cost extra.) I didn't mind, but was surprised at check out.

She started 5 mins ago! After she completed a horrible manicure in about 8 minutes on both hands, I went to the front desk to pay. I showed my nails to the front desk girl and said: "Does this look like I just had a manicure done? Do your employees here always rush to finish sloppy so they can move on to the next client?" She imminently forgot the she spoke perfect English, looked and me and said: "Oh I no know, I am not good at manicure, I can't tell". Then she offered to call a manager, I didn't want to make a scene there, understanding that they will all now forget how to speak English and that they are there to only work on nails. I told her no need, but I will not consider coming back here anymore. She says I am sorry, I don't know. I looked at her and asked if she still going to charge me for a manicure that wasn't a manicure, that I had walked in with better fingernails than I am walking out with, but of course her response was..... "I am sorry, I no know, I don't understand manicure!" $90 later she looked at the receipt to check if I left a tip or not! It does take a few salons to try to find someone that actually can do a proper manicure. This is not that place.

I usually see Tom for my pedicures- he's amazing. One of the best massages Ive found in the area. He hasn't been there the last couple of times I've stopped by ( I hope he didn't quit), so today I had someone new do my pedicure. It was the absolute most rushed pedicure I've ever had. She didn't ask what kind of pedicure I wanted from the menu, so she just did her own thing. It wasn't even the same as the basic pedicure- I've had that one there. The massage was 3 minutes and just not good. It's so hard to find a place that does good foot massages and quality pedicures, so I will probably give them another chance. But only if Tom or the owner is available.

Price was great, foot massage and hot stones were great, and the ladies doing the pedicures were kind and courteous. It's a small, simple place without a lot of bells and whistles, but quite honestly I don't need all the giant chandeliers, marble floors, and fancy drinks. A great job on my nails and kind customer service are what matter most to me. I'll definitely come back here next time I need nails done or want to treat my mom or a friend. Please note: they do not accept tips on your card and did not offer eyebrow waxing on the morning we were there. I thought I saw a waxing room on my way to wash my hands, so maybe it's just a staffing situation.

Tons of bubbles, weird pink color, really cloudy, thick and started lifting within three days.

Pretty nail art but see the red streaks on other nails. Sloppy. And dead cuticle.

My pedicure that normally takes at least 30 minutes was done in 20 and you can tell because the polish and cuticles are messy and the nails are crooked. Disappointing because it's so close to my house and I used to feel like I got good service here. I did mention that I think the polish job was done a little too quick and that it was bumpy and all that was done was an extra coat on top so most likely it's going to take my nails a whole day to dry, which I don't have. When I wake up in the morning, they are probably going to be even more messy. I will say, everyone here is very nice, but the lack of attention to schedule I think is causing the problems. I will not be back.

I have been to an inordinate amount of nail salons and spas and I must say, unequivocally, that this place surpceded any expectations that I may have had! They recently opened and I was on my way home and desperately needed a pedicure and came in and immediately, was greeted with such hospitality! I, of course, was wearing jeans because I had not intended on getting my toes dolled up today and they have clean yoga pants, to change into, for those of you who are like I am and go get a pedicure, with skinny jeans on! To sum this up, this place is "hands and feet down", my #1 go to nail salon! read more

Seriously fell in love with this place! It's incredibly clean, amazing staff and they have everything you need! I've been looking for a regular spot since moving from Dallas a year ago and finally found it! My feet and legs are so smooth from my pedicure, everyone is noticing! My nails are incredible too! I did the chrome and have compliments flooding it. I can't wait to go back! read more

First off the place is beautiful in itself, decorated very nicely. I got acrylic nails and it only took her about 20 min to do and did an amazing job. They can do just about anything for you if you just ask and everyone is very friendly and welcoming, fair prices too. I highly recommend them to everyone in the northwest Austin area looking for a good nail salon. read more

Y'all. Y'ALL. I have finally found my nail artist in Austin! Michele is an amazing nail artist…read more I found Michele on Yelp and checked her out on instagram (@itsasetup) following another reviewer's recommendation. I'm in LOVE. Don't let the fact that she's a one woman show fool you--her nail studio, which is inside a larger salon, is STACKED with the highest quality polishes, stones, studs, charms, etc. I've ever seen. I have been to nail salons with 30 chairs with fewer polishes than Michele has. Plus, she was a great listener who captured exactly what I wanted. It's not a frou frou place; you're not gonna get a glass of wine and a 20 minute stupid hand massage here. I don't have time for that anyways! I want beautiful, high quality nails and nail art. That's it. Michele delivers that exactly. Her attention to detail is amazing, her shaping is flawless, her polish application is insanely clean (she didn't have to remove any access polish from around my nails). She made a few really good suggestions (about my color choices and idea for stones) along the way that I appreciated because they were things I hadn't considered and I ended up happier with the final result. Her price for a full set was very reasonable considering the amount of work put in to it. Whatever shape you want, whatever design, she can do it. Figure out when you have an opening in your schedule, and go see Michele.
