Nice ladies at Sweet. Will ask about your ethnicity if you're Asian. Haha. They're quick and efficient. I needed my nails done before a trip to Vegas. Sweet is close to my new home so I decided on a mani + pedi there. Two ladies worked on me simultaneously. I prefer traditional nail lacquer. Sweet has a limited color selection. The ladies pointed me to 1 tiny display of color options behind the cash register. Half of the colors were old and separating so that was disappointing. The gel nail color options was much better. The quality of the mani was below average. Square shaping was good. Minimal buffing to smooth out nails before polish. The actual color application was thick and uneven. I had to ask the manicurist to paint closer the sides of my nails and fill in some missing spots before the top coat. It's been less than a week, and half my nails have chipped. Luckily, the lady who did my pedicure was much better. She looked at and cleaned up my manicure too but even afterwards, I felt it wasn't great. Feels like skill set varies, and your experience depends a lot on who you get. $55 + tip. Credit cards accepted, tips in cash. No Venmo. I'm looking for my go-to nail salon in South Austin. Sadly Sweet won't be it.

I want to preface this review by saying that I never leave bad reviews, but I hope this helps just one person in the future to avoid this place at all costs. Thursday afternoon, there were probably 2 other customers other than myself in the salon. It was quite empty, so I know my lady wasn't rushing. Immediately I did not feel welcomed but initially I asked for a white tip in dip, and I wanted the straight tips because I like my nails a little bit longer and I don't like it when it curves. She didn't understand me at first but afterwards another lady found the tips I wanted and they said they have to charge me $5 (which is bizarre BTW, I get my nails done twice a month and at a ton of other places and have NEVER been charged for straight tips) to which I say okay that's fine. As she's doing my nails I notice immediately that this lady doesn't know what she's doing -- when you're doing the dip for white tips they have to manually dip the white part, she was on that part and on my 4th nail I knew I would've hated it, so I asked her to just remove it and give me like a solid color (less to mess up on) and I asked very politely & nicely. She gives me an attitude, proceeds to talk shit in Vietnamese (I'm fluent in Vietnamese and I guess with my mask on she couldn't tell, lol) . I ignore her this entire time and she's talking shit. Unfortunately for me, I rly wanted my nails done for a date I had. What I should have done was left, right then and there. For $55, (single color dip, I took my nails off before I got there, and I did square shape. WTF are these prices?!) and a $10 tip, I am so embarrassed of them. I would've been better off doing my nails on my own even though I have no idea how. They're all different lengths and my right hand's nails are all longer than my left hand's nails. The application is horrendous because in a lot of my nails you can see spots where there's no powder. It's bad. REALLY bad. Just go somewhere else, please. The salon itself is nice, it seemed clean but the staff are nasty, rude, and are 100% talking about you in Vietnamese. I would know. Don't make the same mistake I did in coming here.

Went and got a pedicure on Sunday. It was the deluxe one so I knew it would be about 45 minutes to an hour. Ends up being over 2 hours. That wasn't an issue. What was an issue was that when I woke up on Monday morning (yesterday) one of my toe nails' paint is chipped! And upon further inspection of my toes, they weren't done all that well. The technician was super sweet and she seemed like she was really trying to do a good job ... I just don't know what happened. It was gel nail polish ... but my toes just don't look all that great. I even tipped her pretty damn good.

Great Service! Loved my nails. It is my first time at this location came in after shopping at target. The staff is friendly and takes their time with your nails.

Adriana A.

I was so exited to come to this place until I went inside and sat me down to wait half hour, which I didn't mind I had time. When it was my turn the lady asked me what shape and I asked for coffin, the lady ended up shaping them square and uneven. The gel is bulky and some of my nails are uneven and for the size she made them to thin. I could tell she was annoyed by the shape and did not care to fix them. It was originally going to be 75 but she gave me 5 back because she knew she didn't shape them right and really bad gel application.Horrible experience so dissapointed. She also apply the acrylic to close to my cuticles, I know they're going to lift. Just a waste of money, not going back.

Got my nails done on Friday (Dip). Within 12 hours they looked like this. So much money to spend for absolutely nothing.

Eva S.

Well, I don't think it could get worse than this. This is the worst set of acrylics I've ever seen in my life. Period. Completely outrageous prices and definitely overcharged. I don't even know where to start with my nails. Everybody was rude and had attitude to them and they were not even busy. It's only Tuesday evening, not Friday night. The picture shown was the furthest thing from the result. The nails are uneven, poorly shaped, sloppy, patchy, too short, and all around bad. It's nothing like requested and completely overcharged. Tried calling around 30 minutes later for a refund to be met with a rude and standoffish reply of "No refunds! It's a policy.". Do NOT come here.

I came with my Daughter and we both love this place. Lena and Wendy did an excellent job and were so sweet. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area.

Teresa S.

Tried this place out for the first time. I have very little good things to report, unfortunately. Cleanliness- other than the tub liner and one of the foot scrubbers (they used two) nothing came out of a package and everything after being used on me, went back into their "spot" in the cart. They weren't set aside to go into the enclave or sprayed down. Perhaps they clean afterwards, but I can't say for sure and I didn't see anyone else who wrapped up before I was done cleaning their tools. The chair I sat in had stuff stuck to it too and even the menu could have used a wipe down. Gloves were used for the pedicure but not the manicure. Unfortunately you don't know what you have gotten into until you are IN the situation. Not much I could do at that point. Prices- a bit higher than average. For example, a shellac mani goes for around $28, it's $35 here. Quality- chunky and spotty paint job. See pics. Cuticles cut so low it was stung in two spots, I've never had that happen. Shellac nails were painted with a gap on top, which makes a refill needed faster- pet peeve. Scalding hot towels used to wrap legs, I love heat usually! Water temperature was inconsistent as well. Service was really superb and friendly, which makes writing this even harder of course. We didn't have the best communication, but we made due. White wine was served warm and was undrinkable. Chair worked well. Music was relaxing, it is as nice not to have TV noise. Massage- if you like your legs rubbed, not your feet, this is the place for you. I asked three times to skip my legs and that was all she would focus on. The massage was really long, due to a heated convo with the coworker next to her keeping her distracted. It didn't bother me, I ended up getting the better end of the deal, even if it wasn't my feet getting the love when badly needing rubbing. I get pedicures just for that, I can paint my own nails. I paid and tipped, but won't be back. I hate writing bad reviews, I really do. But if you are like me and you don't treat yourself often, I don't want you to feel slighted too. :-( Plus, potential health concerns aren't worth it. I am headed home to swim in some rubbing alcohol.

Amy S.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Don't be deceived by the interior. Sure it's nice - has to be for the lack of professionalism and skill. I got my nails done - wanted SNS with a simple oval shape. I wish I had taken a photo of how horrible the nails looked. When you looked at the side you could see the "fake nail", my nail, and then the polish. It was so embarrassing I had the technician take them off. She cut my nails so far down that I bled 3 times and left me to leave like the picture below. Even though I paid to have them removed! Never go here. Ever. For real. Just stop.

Should be zero stars. I went to get a full set of SNS nails. After an hour and 15 minutes, I left with all the tips bending!! The technician wanted to remove them all and start over. I gave the technician $10 and will never return. I am at a loss for words.

Stephanie R.

Very chic and spa like setting. Friendly staff, easy check in, clean and well worth the money. The nail and pedicure areas are separated, Austin is a great tech. She does really natural looking Brenda and great pedicures!

My mom took me here for a girl's day before we headed out to my cousin's wedding. My nails were nothing like I asked except color. I asked them to be short and they gave me long nails that were so thick that it took me over THREE hours to get off at home. My pedicure was also astrocious as they literally rushed through it to give another a client my chair instead of putting her in a different one. Would not go here unless you feel like blowing $100 for a shitty fast job. read more

Sweet Nails is...fine. Conveniently located next to Target on Ben White, so easy in and out and plenty of parking. The staff is nice but they seem understaffed. We had a long wait at 4:30 on a Monday afternoon, which seemed odd. Double the number of customers to employees. The salon is dated, and not all the massage chairs work. The polish is mostly knock-off brands you've never heard off with some OPI that's very old. I got the deluxe gel pedi and it was average. She took her time and did a fine job. No complaints about the pedi itself...until I saw the price. $62 just for the pedicure before tip!!! Maybe my normal salon is a hidden gem, but I usually pay $45 before tip...with better service all the way around. This place isn't bad in a pinch, but I will go out of my way to hit my regular spot next time. Will not be back. read more

Came in for the first time and the ladies were very kind. I was first directed to sit with my hands in acetone to remove my SNS, but was there for over 15 min as my nail tech took a massage walk in that came after me...I was patient and waited for her to come back. I came in for an SNS manicure after having a negative experience else wear. I showed them a picture of a translucent nude I wanted and they suggested some colors. When she dipped my nails in the powder everything seems fine however, once she put the top coat gloss, on one nail, you could see bubbles and powder (see image). I asked about it and she said she couldn't see it. Two other nails technicians came to see what I saw and another nail tech took over. All 3 were there talking about it and looking over whole the other one tried to fix it and I felt extremely uncomfortable for "complaining". She filed them down more and ended up making ridges instead of a rounded nail bed and then when she put the gloss it was the same problem. I really wanted to say how I still wasn't happy but felt like I couldn't do so or they would get upset and keep talking about me. I considered not tipping but I was being watched as I signed my receipt and felt pressured to tip. I was not happy with how my nails turned out or how uncomfortable I felt. I would appreciate a refund since I feel awkward returning. read more

This nail spot is by far my favorite in Austin! At so many places the quality of service doesn't match the quality of employees but here that is not the case! I am always welcomed with large smiles and welcoming gestures. Holly does such a great job at running this place as well! I go about every other week and they always remember me. All of the staff is so polite and kind, not to mention they care deeply about the client's satisfaction. Pedicures are a MUST here. I HIGHLY recommend getting one in addition to whatever other nail service you choose. Hot rocks and steaming towels in addition to a great massage makes for an amazing and relaxing experience. This place holds all qualities of an upscale nail salon and spa, with such affordable prices. You just can't beat it! I refer all my friends to come here. They are opening another location more North in Cedar Park so check them both out! read more

Sit back, relax, and let Leum, Cookie, and Moon take care of you! Some of you may not know this, but Mr. Smidgens is a bit of a germaphobe! I have been to a few nail salons and up until now, Milk and Honey has been my go to place. Sanitary is the only way I can relax and enjoy my pedicures. That being said, spending the day with my lovely niece and my beautiful GF we decided to find a place close by. We saw the reviews and I approved. Although I trust no one until I have experienced things first hand. The first thing I noticed is that the place did not smell like a nail salon. Proper ventilation, check! There were disposable plastic liners in all the tubs. Sanitary practices, check! The place was spotless and the way Moon massaged my feet and calves was intoxicating! Bang for your buck, check! Robynn and my niece also enjoyed their pedicures from Leum and Cookie. I would highly recommend SN&S after our wonderfully relaxing experience! Look at my feet! They are magnificent!!! read more

5 stars! This will seem like a negative review but keep reading because they fixed the nails they messed up.. and they are perfect now. I went in wanting to try the chrome/hologram nails... the base (SNS nails + fake nail) was perfect.. I thought I had found my nails place because they were literally perfect! The coffin shape was exactly how I liked it and the thickness was just right! But then came the hologram "powder". After three attempts of applying it, it not working out and then filling my nails down to start over (THREE TIMES) I was about to cry and begged them to stop my fingers were burning and very sore from all the work being done to them. The final product was so upsetting I refused to take a picture of them, they were bumpy and misshaped the "hologram" was on like only half the nail and the other nails had sparkle paint of them to try and hide how bad they were.. I was told to just "not look at those nails". Also when I asked if the hologram powder was extra I was told "NOO". Turns out it was extra.. I was so upset I didn't even want to take their offer of fixing the nails for free. I did cave and agreed is be back Sunday (3days later) AND OMG thank the heavens I did because these are the most perfect nails I've ever had. I WILL be back just not as adventurous with my nail color choices. The first picture is BEFORE the hologram the first time, and the second picture is final product of when I went back and they fixed them. read more

WOW. I went for the first time bc all the good reviews. Let me tell ya. They did not disappoint. I asked for long ombré acrylic nails and that's exactly what I got. They really care about their customers and greeted everyone with a big smile! I loved the atmosphere and the work they did. Would 10/10 recommend. I will definitely be back to this salon! I wish I got the lady's name that did my nails but I didn't. I think it may have been Holly? Either way I am IN LOVE with my nails. Thank you ladies for the awesome job and kindness. read more

The Vitamin-C, Peptide infused serum with anti-oxidants and seven essential nutrients for my skin was something I didn't realize I needed, but apparently it is scarcely believable that I have gone through my entire life without ever using this amazing combination of organic and synthetic chemically-rich cream that is 100% natural and made of nothing but vegetable by-products that is not made as a result of child labor practices in some third-world country. The hundreds of employees working there provide a wealth of knowledge about all of the things certain to bankrupt you but make you feel better about yourself in the process. Ulta - it should be noted - is a dog friendly store and see at least three different French Poodles (although I mistakenly identified one that happened to be an actual person with blonde poofy hair) An embarrassed chihuahua did enter with its owner but he proved who was boss faster than you can say, "would you like to apply for the Ulta credit card and save 5% in your purchase today while paying only 36% interest compounded daily?" I did really like the vast selection. It is larger than any flea market in the city of Kyle Texas. The mirrors are beautiful of course, but it helps that I was the one looking into it. And while it may seem like I am slightly edging a bit on the pricing, let's face a certain truth; It cost a LOT of money to prepare your corpse for the wake after you drop dead from heart failure at how easy it was to spend a lifetime of Benjamin's on your trip to the Cosmetic Zoo!

The manager complained (in a very confrontational manner) that I did not fill out the form myself. I have never been treated that badly before or since. That manager is the only service person who has ever complained about my need for disability accommodations. When I suggested that all forms be sent to clients before the first visit, so problems could be noted and solved before clients had to drive to the studio, he became quite defensive. He showed no empathy. I have never been treated so badly by any service provider. I find it ironic that a manager at a school that teaches people to perform a service career would be so callous. My advice is that you consider driving up north to Austin's other laser school, where service is impeccable.

How does this salon have 4 stars?? I waited 4 weeks until my angry emotions passed so that I can write this as fairly and diplomatically as possible. Nothing has changed; just don't go here. I went with my friend, our daughters (6 yrs) and my neighbor's daughter (9 yrs) for a fun girl's day outing. Kids regular mani advertised at $12, and adult $20. After we said we wanted regular manicures *multiple times*, (and once we no longer had the menu with prices to look at) we were aggressively talked into the gel polish instead of regular. We also added one flower for each kids' mani. We understood there would be an additional charge for these upgrades, but I was totally shocked and confused when my total was ONE HUNDRED FIVE DOLLARS for 2 kids and 1 adult mani, (my friend's $70 for her and her little). Our nails look fine, and the mani itself was super basic. The "massage" was rubbing lotion on hands and forearms (while wearing latex gloves, yuck) for about 30 seconds each. We expected an $80 bill plus tip at the most. It is absolutely absurd to assume someone (especially who was looking at the menu and asking about prices) would think it okay to upsell a $12 kid mani to a $30 kid mani (not teen, even tween, but 6 year olds!) without mentioning the outrageous price difference. We will never go here again and will warn others. This just was a sneaky, awful thing to do that put a big damper on our girl's day. Shame on them! read more

I took my daughter here for her first manicure as a mommy/daughter treat. We chose the $12 kid manicure and $20 adult manicure from the menu. When we were choosing polish, we were aggressively talked into trying gel polish instead. No one mentioned that the cost was more, and I assumed we would see a small up-charge at the end. We even decided to splurge and add a flower to one of my daughter's nails. The manicure was very basic with a 20 second hand massage at the end and no massage for my daughter - I just assumed that it wasn't included for kids - not a big deal. My nails are okay. One is noticeably lumpy, a few have rough edges and one cuticle is over-trimmed. Overall they are okay but not great. okay. My daughters nails are super cute. She was very happy. Then we went to pay. $70 before tip. SEVENTY dollars. Outrageous and ridiculous. I double checked the menu then and found they had upsold me from a $12 kid manicure to a $30 one plus the flower. 1st how can they ever justify that kind of increase for a polish that is easier for them? Second SERIOUSLY $18 more for gel polish is just insane. And that is something you tell a customer - if you talk someone into trying the gel polish, you should also let them know there is a SUBSTANTIAL (more than double) price change. Don't go here. Do not send other people here. They really took advantage of us. read more

I've been twice now where they've cut and filed my nails so short they hurt. The technician filed down to the quick of my nail bed and I said it hurt and she continued to try and do the same thing to the rest of my fingers. I don't think I'll ever come back. Not worth $60 if you can't use your hands without them hurting after. She also filed the old gel off instead of soaking it off like you're supposed to. I asked her repeatedly to stop and she just ignored me and went on doing it. She took the top layer of my nail off in the process so they're also sensitive to the touch because of that. Plus when she finished the manicure she used cuticle oil for the arm massage instead of lotion which had a very odd texture and left a gross film on my arms that I had to scrub to get off. All in all pretty poor experience, I've been coming for two years but this will be my last. read more

This business is a dream come true. I used Lynn for appx: 5 years & when I returned they said she no longer worked there & would not tell me where I could locate her! Four years ago I was in Sephora & one of the sales girls recognized me & knew I was a customer of Lynn. She told me where she was working & I got the information. I didn't try to locate her for a few years due to surgery & trying other nail places. I finally gave up & drove to her new location & was so happy to see her & received a huge welcoming hug!! She knows what a perfectionist I'am & always went above & beyond pleasing me. She's so SWEET & pleasant to be with!

I've been looking for a quality nail salon that rivals my salon on the East Coast and hadn't found it in the 2.5 years I've lived here. With the new improvements to their location and work stations, Sweet Nails and Spa has filled that void! They also have later hours (open till 7:30 pm) which is a huge plus for anyone who needs to afterwork hours. Nikki was my Nail Tech and she was AMAZING! She was so easy to speak with, very consultative and explained the difference between gel manicure and dip manicure. She encouraged me to try dip manicure and I truly couldn't be more thankful. My nails look amazing and this was easily the best service from a nail salon! Thanks again, Nikki and I can't wait to return. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Holly has been my nail tech for several years at Barton Creek Day Spa, but when she let me know that she is now at Sweet Nails and Spa I did not hesitate to change locations. I knew that wherever Holly would be working would have to be a first class business, and my first visit there recently proved that. I got so much more for my money. When you get a pedicure you also get a sea salt scrub, hot towels and something I had never had A HOT STONE MESSAGE, which was wonderful!. I also got gel nails.

When I told the guy at the front desk, he said he had overheard everything and apologized for her behavior. He said, "I don't know if she's having a bad day or personal problems." I thought to myself, even if she was, that doesn't mean you should take it out on your customer. The whole situation was bizarre, uncomfortable, and awkward. He told me that next time the manager would do my nails and take care of me. I don't know why, but I was open to giving it another chance. When I called to make an appointment with the manager, the same technician, Su, happened to answer the phone and refused to let me speak to the manager. She continued to be rude and said, "You should make sure to choose the color before you come in," as if it was somehow my fault she made me bleed. It was so strange. Then, out of nowhere, she said, "I'M NOT RACIST." That's when it clicked. Nobody deserves to be treated this way. Hopefully, this review can help prevent someone else from being discriminated against

This is my second time here and these ladies did absolutely amazing!…read more I Love the atmosphere, the music, and the clean environment. I had gotten a green tea organic pedi with a full acrylic gel, all together was 101$. I really don't know why this place isn't as busy as you'd think considering the excellent service and hospitality. I also had a broken pinky nail which took about half my nails room but even with that obstacle, she had given me a full set. She made it work and it was honestly relieving, I totally thought I was gonna leave out of there only 9 fingers done 10/10 experience Si, hablan español!

There were no signs on the door about being closed for Memorial Day. Their website didn't mention anything either and it hasn't been updated since Christmas. I waited for 30 minutes since last time this happened they were just running a few minutes late. I was not notified that they would be closed. Their hours are listed as opening up at 9:30 AM which is false. I've come to this location several times and I usually enjoy my experience, but this is not the first time that I am locked out as a customer and all it takes is simple communication. If something came up and they had to close, that is completely understandable. However, no one told me. I came and wasted my time and now I have to find a new salon to get my service done for graduation. It is currently 1142 as I'm writing this post and they still have not shown up.

She is so kind and caring and is the most detail oriented manicurist I have encountered. I have a condition on the bottom of my foot that causes intense pain when pressure is applied to that area. Anna is extremely gentle but effective at taking care of my needs and takes her time with me. I typically ask for her directly and make an appointment to ensure she is available because she is that good. The salon is always clean and I like that they use a plastic cover in the bowl and sanitize all supplies before doing any services. Her husband also comes in with her to assist her and they are the sweetest couple . Definitely ask for her and you won't be disappointed!

There always seems to be miscommunication, and instead of listening to what I actually want, the nail techs constantly try to tell me what I should get done instead. This last visit was honestly my final straw. The only reason I continued coming here was because it's convenient, close to me, and offers free parking. This time I came in for a very BASIC Pedicure. I already had bare nails with no polish and had trimmed my toenails at home beforehand. All that was done was cuticle cleanup, some dead skin removal on the bottom of my feet, and polish. That was it. No massage whatsoever, which I understand may not be included anymore, but the entire service felt rushed and low effort. I was in and out in about 20 minutes, and the salon wasn't even busy. To make matters worse, another nail tech pushed her rolling cart directly over my designer shoes and left scuff marks on them. No care, no awareness, no professionalism. I was also repeatedly addressed as "girl" instead of "miss" or "maam," which felt extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. I understand I may be younger than some of the staff, but that doesn't excuse the lack of basic customer respect. Then came the pricing. $60 for a basic pedicure like this is absolutely insane!! Especially for a salon that is dark, cramped, and not very clean. The prices they charge do not reflect the quality of service or overall experience at all. If I'm paying premium prices, I expect premium service, attention to detail, and professionalism. When I politely asked for clarification on the charges because I wanted to make sure I wasn't being charged for nail polish removal ($25) despite arriving with bare nails, all I got was "sorry, that's the basic pedicure." No real explanation, no customer care, nothing. And lastly, as someone who has worked in the nail industry, is Asian, has Vietnamese family and friends, and understands some Vietnamese myself, I find it incredibly rude when staff talk about clients in Vietnamese assuming customers don't understand them. Customers notice more than you think. This salon clearly does not value long-term customers or quality service. Experiences like this are exactly why I started doing my own nails at home. I gave this place enough chances, but I'm done.

Been on the hunt for a new pedicure place for about little over six months now, and I've finally…read morefound it! My mom and I did some research, but pedicure reviews are hard to come by at nail spots. We decided to try Escape, and we weren't disappointed! We came just after opening on a Saturday and were able to sit immediately. There are so many color options and all the classic options for pedicure types. My only thing is that the services are a little on the pricier side. However, our technicians were both so friendly, listened to our individual requests, and did a fantastic job overall! I love the blue ocean-like floor and cannot wait to go back.

Nancy was assigned to do my nails and did not speak one word of English. The only reason I bring this up is because typically, when you need to get your nails removed, they soak your fingernails for a few minutes to loosen the bond, then clip them off of your natural nails piece by piece. Well, an hour and a half later, they finally removed. It was not communicated to me clearly that they did a different process to preserve the nail by slowly filing it down then soaking your nails, then slowly filing it down then soaking your hands times 11! Literally, it took over an hour and a half to get them removed. Nancy was rough with my fingers. She had sharp nails and dug them into my fingers while she was rolling them from side to side to work on my nails. It was painful and I tried to explain to her not to grip my fingers so tightly. She also cut my one of my cuticles. I know I have thin cuticles - I tried to explain that to her but she didn't understand. The manager should have stepped in and explained the process better and communicated to Nancy my complaints. They had me soak my nails for over 25 minutes with foil wraps before switching me out to have John be my new nail technician. John was wonderful. We were able to have a nice conversation and he did a great job. However, I did have an appointment I needed to go to and I was late to it because when I walked into the salon at 12:30, I had no idea it wouldn't be until 2:00 pm before that process was done. I will not be returning.
