    wish i read reviews before coming here:( overpriced for mid service. paid 120 for nails and toes no pedicure. staff was nice but i was not expecting the price.

    Polish on skin and cuticles.

    If you want to feel like a quarter pounder with cheese on a McDonalds assembly line, then sure, go to Lovely Nails. First time the service (gel mani) was okay. Gave them another try today with a mani/pedi and remembered why I detest receiving these services simultaneously. I hate that you're twisting in the chair, hate that the mani person doesn't have good light (and it shows!!). If you have your nails done strictly to have neat, polished nails without any (and I mean ANY) relaxation or enjoyment of the actual services, I guess this place might be for you? Except my nails are far from neat. Why bother doing a manicure at the same time as a pedicure if you can do a clean job that the customer will actually enjoy? I had not 2 or 3 but FOUR different people working on me at different times. It was like a tag team job. I was like a burrito bowl being pushed down the assembly line at Chipotle. Best part - no one washed their hands. They didn't have me wash my hands before I sat down, they were all working on other people and then bopping over to different people (including me) and not a single person washed their hands. Yeah, not going back. I guess it's about par for what you'd expect at a sketchy strip mall on east Oltorf. You get what you pay for.

    Take the wine... go with a lot of time to spare . Don't say I didn't warn you.

    I don't like leaving mediocre reviews for small businesses who are trying to make it in these covid times... but user know that while they did complete our mani pedis in 2and a half hours- with an appointment... lord knows at what time those other poor ladies who were walk ins and soaking got out ‍‍ it was like they didn't know how to say "no"!! There were only 2 people actually technicians, working full brunt speed. And 2 helpers who would get you to soaking point. Then you had to wait. Once you're soaking: you're a sitting duck! So we sat and sat and waited... eventually I got the guy. He was rushing and hurting my feet with his brusque movements while taking my polish off!! I took my foot away. He understood it hurt ( oh yes there's also a communication issue) he started a bit more carefully. Well no frills pedi completed and the lady doing my daughter goes to do other persons nails... what? So I cling to my guy and luckily he stays to follow with my nails. Halfway thru I had reminded I was wearing acrylic and needed to soak: they didn't have aluminum wrappers: he hands me a bowl of acetone to soak ... ok- primitive time. I soak and scrape my acrylics off to help with the rush and keep my fingers semi- alive...overall we were laughing throughout the experience but it was annoying and wouldn't do it again. Get the wine. They offered drinks at the beginning that we turned down: well at 6 pm, my nails done, I got the white wine while waiting on my daughter and it was good! We left at 6:30pm and those poor ladies who had been soaking feet since 4:30... were still there... Results: look good. No massage on the mani: one cuticle burn. Pedi: good job overall except I kept asking for a thin white line for my French pedi and he didn't understand- so I got what I got. It's ok.

    Asked for oval shape which the shape is okay, also asked for ombré look which still needs improvement in blending.

    Very nice people, but charge too much for still needing improvements in their work. Maybe just coming for something more simple will work.

    Love my nails. Was a great time. I recommend this place. Check out my nail pics. Was pretty quick as well!

    There is only one person who does finger nails, and because of that expect a rush job. My pedicure was the best part. My feet felt clean and taken care of, but this not a relaxing place. If you want to feel pamper go somewhere else, but if you just need to have your nails done for appearance purposes this is the place.

    Everytime I go to this location they take their time and do a good job. I normally go for a gel manicure and I am never disappointed. I noticed when I would get a gel manicure in Austin the gel would start peeling within a few days from quite a few places. Since I have started going here my manicure lasts around 3 weeks. If you are looking for an inexpensive place to take care of your nails, this is the spot!

    They did a great job and didn't take long at all! Will be coming back more often. I got dip nails and she took great care of me. Family friendly vibes.

I had been looking for a new place to get a facial because my last place was not living up to my expectations. I had stumbled upon Ann Marie Skin. What sold me was she does reiki facials!! I am a huge fan of reiki and also have been trained as a level one. I had given Ann Marie a quick text and find she had an opening that evening. Score!! I have since been back twice with another appointment on the books. I would recommend booking in advance as her schedule does book up. The location is a little odd but she had told me she had been there for years. Her esthetician room is comforting and relaxing. The pillows she uses are wonderful! After each facial I always feel relaxed and refreshed. She uses eminence products which are a luxury skin care line that always smells amazing! There is on the street parking and she is located right across the street of Whole Foods near the CBD shop.

    I'm no stranger to waxing, but I've always wanted to try sugaring and this was my first time…read more With sugaring, it is also removing the hair but it is much more gentle on your skin. I came in with no expectations of the pain level, and it ended up hurting a lot less than waxes I've gotten in the past. When you arrive you'll need to take off your shoes at the door. There's water in the waiting room and plenty of seating and reading material. Lucianne was super patient and provided a lot of information on the process. She was gentle (as far as hair removal goes) and made my first sugaring experience super relaxing. If you're used to waxing, the pain is no where compared to a Brazilian wax. If you're nervous l, highly recommend taking a Tylenol beforehand. They sell natural skincare products in-house, and I purchased their serum created by Ritual Union (ritual_Union on IG) to use and help with ingrowns and moisturizing. It's full of great ingredients and I'm excited to be using it. If you're into skincare/body care, Lucianne recommended to check out Earth Commons on Springdale Road. They also do events, sell tea blends, and offer holistic services. Absolutely loved my experience and I think this has converted me from using hard wax to sugaring. Highly recommend if you're looking to try sugaring!

    I've been a longtime patron of European Wax Center, like 10+ years overall and at least 5 years at…read morethis specific location. 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.

They even gave me a few samples to take home, which was such a nice touch. 10/10, I'll definitely be back!
