Henry is the best one in that shop I give him a 20++ rating . Nice very clean and manager very very nice

Me and my husband come here once or twice a month to do our pedicures. Lisa has done my toes and waxing for years she's my regular I don't let anyone else touch it. She does it so well she takes her time and is genuinely sweet she's like a best friend, we talk the whole time. Her work is really great! She always draws a nice design this lasts for a month. Please ask for Lisa she's the BEST here!! read more

The Nail Shop - My St. Patrick's design Lisa is the BEST! - Nail Salons Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

My best friend goes here and she highly recommended Lisa. Today I went in. Lisa was sick so I had Lucy & Helen do my nails. They did a great job. They listened to my needs, and gave me exactly what I was asking for. I love the fact that the entire time I was getting my nails done people are calling in and the owner knew exactly who they were and who they needed to be scheduled with. They also had repeat customers walking in that recognize them ask them personal questions about themselves, which made it such a personal experience. I really enjoyed the environment and my services because I was so comfortable. I ended up getting a pedicure which I initially was not going to do, and I added a clean up on my eyebrows, which I loved. Both ladies did an awesome job. read more

$60 for a full set isn't bad... but sixty bucks is sixty bucks therefore you expect a decent job right. I've been getting my nails done for years, I usually go to Mesa but I figured to give this place a go. The older gentleman that did my nails didn't even clean up my cuticles when prepping. The way he piled on the paint for the French tip was insane. I was so disappointed in this shop. Also the amount of polish he left underneath my nails was mind blowing. First and last time ever going there. read more

I have dipped my nails for 3 years now. Being new to San Antonio, I was hopeful this shop was going to be the place I could go to. First, the older women in the front corner yelled multiple times "can I help you" as I was greeted by and speaking to another staff. Then, the same older women criticized my tattoo and argued she knew it didn't say what I believed. (Nevertheless, my Korean friend created it for me) Please note, as a military veteran suffering with mental issues, or simply a customer escaping for some relaxation, felt on edge the entire time. My nails: as depicted, they were very long and this is a process that takes time and a tech knowing how to properly apply dip. So in the first 2 weeks, 6 nails were cracked, 2 needed to be filed at home because they were much larger than the rest, and 3 have broken. I am very disappointed in my service. And given the attitude presented at the time of my visit, I'm not comfortable returning there to discuss the issue. I do not recommend this place. read more

I have been coming to the nail shop for years! If you are looking for a facial wax, Lisa is the best! I have been doing my eyebrows with her for probably 6+ years! If you are looking for a pedicure/manicure, Don is amazing!! He pays so much attention to detail and he gives such a good experience! I never have to worry about my polish being chipped, wrinkled, or dented with Don. On top of that, he is just a super sweet man, always tries to make me feel as comfortable as possible. 10/10 definitely recommend! read more

I was so excited to try this place. I walked in with my SERVICE dog and was denied service. I explained and pointed to his vest and she still turned me away, which is ILLEGAL, but at that point I wasn't gonna stand there and argue much less give them my money! NO BUSINESS can refuse a service animal. Even if no pet policy or even if they're afraid of dogs or have allergies. It's just the LAW. read more

I have been coming to this place for a few years now when David was still working there. Now that he's gone I have Henry do my nails. I ask for him specifically for mani and pedi. He always does my hands but then pawns me off for the pedi with someone else and I never like how the other techs shape my toe nails. On top of that, when he does my manicure the tools don't get sanitized, the man literally just pulls the used tools out of a box in his drawer and wipes them down with a cotton swab and alcohol instead of properly sanitizing them and returns them to the box once finished. I now have a fungal infection on my cuticles (tiny blisters around my nail bed). Safe to say I will not be returning. They should get a visit from the health department. read more

All day, all day.. He slays, he slays.. Henry is 4-0 on these mfffsssssssss !! *does triangle snap* Do I even need to leave another review, I mean.. REALLY ?!?! Pssshhht ! Heeennnrrryyy does it again. Took me from long nails to short ones with no issues. LOVE LOVE LOVE his work ! I hate waiting, no for real.. like I have the patience of a 2 year old who has had too much candy. I cannot stand it - and with some nail places, even when you call and let them know you are coming or make an appt - you have a wait. Wellll, I can say that I have never had a wait with Henry. I called him Sunday at around 2:45 and asked if he had time to do my services, I needed to get a fill-in and my toes painted - my usual. and he asked how long until I would be there - i told him 10 minutes. I got there in about 8 minutes really and he was walking away from putting the girl before me under the UV lights to dry. PERFECT TIMING HENRY ! My nails were reallllly long - they had grown out quite a bit since I only get them and my toes done once a month (Thank you Shellac !) I asked that he cut them down some, he definitely took the length off. I was nervous because when he was cutting them down - the acrylic on 2 of them cracked down to the nail bed - I have an overlay so my REAL nails are under there. He took care of my worries though, he sanded my acrylic down to the nail and re-did the cracked ones. I commend him on this because i had a nail tech before who did not do that and simply filled the nail, which allowed water to get under my acrylic and caused my nail fungus under it - true story. He made sure the cracks were gone and everything was filled properly. :) He always helps me with my polishes as well - I want my toes and nails to match always and sometimes the color of shellac they have is not exactly the same as the colors they have that are not shellac but he helps me get as close as possible. He and I will pull 3-4 bottles and put them under the lamp with the shellac swatch to make sure its as close as possible because those salon lights will fool you into thinking you got the same shade of pink on, then you get in that direct sunlight and you end up with magenta and maroon. NOPE ! Not I, said the captain. I will be matched as close a possible or ill pick another color that I CAN find a match to. My toes are perfect, no complaints on my nails, the painting of them, the services, the friendliness, the speed. i just keep waiting on him to mess up - LOL but so far so good. :) :) I cannot say enough good things about Henry and his services. Pictures don't do his work justice. Thank you again Henry - ill be seeing you again in t-minus 30 days. read more

Shari M. 10/2/2013 LOVE this place! Best nail shop in my area. After moving from Abilene TX I have struggled to find a decent place near my home for pedicures and nails. After months of trying different places I discovered this gem. The Nail Shop is fairly new and I have been here every week since it opened back in August. I have tried all services and they're all above and beyond. Very pleased! If you are searching for nail salon I would highly recommend the Nail Shop. read more

The Nail Shop - Decorated for Halloween - Nail Salons Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The Nail Shop is one of my go-to salons for manicures and pedicures. I have been here several times since they opened up a couple of years ago. The interior is still fresh and clean, with a calm and serene atmosphere. The 'Basic' pedicure is $25 which I feel is a decent price. The only thing is that hot towels and foot scrubs are not included, unlike at other salons. But do not fear, you can always upgrade to the 'Deluxe Pedicure' and beyond. Each pedicure I have received left my feet feeling soft and they definitely get all of the rough spots out. I love a place that pays special attention to my rough areas. Manicures are great also. If you want a full set, or a change of polish, they do a wonderful job and have a decent selection of nail polishes. Do not forget to ask for a rewards card. After about 10 trips or so, you get $10 off a service. That is another incentive that keeps me coming back! The service is also great with friendly and helpful nail technicians! This salon is worth a shot! Give them a try! read more

Yesterday's experience makes me very disappointed that I gave this place a chance for a 2nd time. When we arrived at the nail shop I called prior to going to make sure they had availability for 2 pedicures 1 manicure. The man who answered the phone told me that they had openings and so my mom and I decided to go for pedicures. When we got there we were notified to choose our colors from the wall and when i asked if they had any other options I was told that was it. My first impression of the nail polishes was that they were very old and there wasn't very much of a selection. Finally my mom and I decided on colors and we were told to go to the pedicure chair. The bowls were empty and we were waiting a good 10 minutes before anyone came over to run our water. The lady who sat us down didn't hesitate to throw a towel over my legs which I found very strange and made me uncomfortable which is the opposite of why you go to get a pedicure. You should feel comfortable and relaxed and that was not the case here. Finally they started the water and again we were left waiting another 10 minutes before anyone would begin our pedicures. By the time the man who was going to do my pedicure arrived the water was already cold. My mom was still left waiting. I am not sure if this is due to staffing or what was going on. I understand that it can get busy on a weekend but the whole process was rushed. As soon as the pedicure began for me I felt like the man who was doing my pedicure was very rushed and rough. He set my massage chair and i'm not sure what setting it was on but now a day after my back is hurting. While he was tidying up my nails he pulled a toenail that I had which then caused it to bleed a little. Nothing was put on it and instead my foot was thrown back into the water which I was concerned about because there were no pedi bowl covers. My whole pedicure felt very rushed and the massage on my legs was very rough. Onto my mom's experience which was not very pleasant as well. My mom asked her pedicurist if he was going to do the same pedicure on her as they did on me to which he didn't respond. She asked him again and then proceeded to ask him his name and again was ignored. We left unhappy and as soon as we arrived to our home we saw that my nails and my mom's nails had already chipped. We felt that this was due to old nail polish. The nail polish curled up and peeled when my mom didn't even touch anything. Very unfortunate. When we called, a man by the name Henry answered and we explained to him politely what happened and if there was any chance we could get our money back for my mom's pedicure because it turned out pretty bad he kept asking us "why?" It was just "Why, Why Why Why?" We weren't even offered the opportunity for them to fix it. I do not feel that this is good customer service what so ever when you can't even empathize with your customer. Overall, We were not happy or pleased completely a disappointing experience. Beware. read more

All my Hermosa linda chicas stay clear of this place. They are very rude. Nothing new with nail designs and colors. Visiting from Austin. This nail shop's Atmosphere- is stale. No relaxing music/or a tv show. No water or adult beverage. If they had customer service instead of ignoring you because you only need 2 nails fixed, while they worked on your sister's fills. Then I could tolerate the rest. Check dates on reviews and look at the pics posted. No hombre. Pass. read more

Little salon next to a gas station behind the mall. Nicely decorated, looks appealing from the outside. Walked in with no wait midday Saturday, so that's a plus! $30 for a shellac mani, still looks great a week later. I wasn't offered any drinks or anything, not sure if they offer any. Color selection seemed about normal for a small salon. The lady was very meticulous. They also give you a punch card, so every 10th service is $10 off. This particular salon is a little out of the way for me normally, but I'll probably be back if I'm in the area. read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. If you want poor quality nails this is the place to go. I went here two weeks ago and I will not be going back! My nails came out terrible, there were bubbles in the acrylic which led to bubbles under the nail polish so they looked like crap. Also, before the first week after getting them done was over one of my tips broke! Definitely will be taking my money somewhere else, and that's cause this place was highly recommended by a friend to me too. Ugh! Update: Decided to give this place another shot since my regular place closes early and this building claims the shop is open til 8pm, don't waste your time! I arrived at 7:24 pm and have been waiting for well over half an hour to be seen. They turned away girls that walked in right after me at 7:30 pm. The only reason I'm staying for the mani is because if I leave now it's only going to be an even BIGGER waste of time. Bottom line is don't have a sign and tell people you're open til 8pm if you only feel like working til 7:20 pm. Pathetic! If you want REAL service and quality go to Asiana Nails and Spa or to Hawaii Nail Salon. read more

Run in the other direction!! I got coffin dip nails, a pedi, and much to my frustration a brow wax. Let me start by saying I know some nail technicians can come across a little rude sometimes but here, they're just mean. My cousin and I went. She works with food so she wanted short nails. The owner who was doing our nails laughed at her when she wanted shorter nails. No special shape, just square. So I didn't at all feel comfortable asking for shorter nails with his attitude. Like I said I got dip nails. Instead of dipping my nail like you're supposed to (hence the name DIP NAILS) he put it on like regular acrylic. There were spots on the corners of all my nails where you could still see the fake nail clear as day. Time for the pedi. The lady doing my pedi was really trying to put me down. She kept telling me all the problems with my feet. I know, I haven't gotten a pedi in 2 years but seriously, you don't need to let everyone else know. Then she kept telling me I NEED a brow wax because of how bad they are. I tell her no. She finishes my pedi and let's the polish dry. Then gets me up and starts taking me to get my brows waxed regardless of me already telling her no. I lay down anyway and she starts cleaning the area. Waxes, proceeds to show my cousin the hair she removed, then finishes. The next morning 2 of my nails broke. One when I grabbed keys off the table and the other when I pulled the brake on my car (standard). Over a week later and I'm still dealing with a reaction from the wax and I went to a different nail salon to get a new set and had a wonderful experience. read more

I had an appointment at 2:30 on Friday 6/26/19 and had to wait 35 minutes -this is not acceptable. So customers be aware of the poor service this salon offers but some of the nail techs are good. This is not the 1x time that I have had to wait. Another frustrating issue is they do not speak in english they talk among themselves in their language which I feel is RUDE! read more

Loved this Nail Shop! They're so sweet! The girl at front desk was so nice and sincere. They were all nice! They catered to me today, at my first visit. Wherever I would go, they took my stuff to me and put it down in a safe place. They offer many services. Like if you need to get completely DONE and rejuvenated, you can totally do it all there. Mani, pedi, waxing, facials, etc. The place is so clean and pretty. It feels and looks so chic! Being 37 weeks pregnant I need to pee often, and I hate using public restroom, but this restroom totally felt like home. Lol! It means a lot to me to have a clean, pretty restroom. Hahahaha read more

Decided to try this place for the first time after reading the great reviews.... Completely disappointed and won't be going back. I got the milk and honey pedicure and it was definitely not worth the money... My toes are all filed crooked and I picked a barely visible color, and it's totally messed up. At this point I'm glad I didn't choose anything darker or brighter. My friend who was with me and was waiting next to me for my color to dry was literally rushed to pay, made it fairly uncomfortable. The reason I give it two stars is because the staff was nice and the salon seemed decent looking. read more

I went the The Nail Shop as recommended by a co-worker who visits Holly. I did not make an appointment, but was seated right away. I was very pleased with both the pedicure and Shellac manicure I received from Bay. The products they use are great, and the place is very clean. After my pedicure, I wasn't sure if I would have enough time for a manicure, but Bay made it happen. She did a great job :) Great customer service! read more

Charged me $43 for a full set acrylic nails. because I chose a "special color" that costs $15 extra. like what color am I supposed to pick? aren't you supposed to get a color of your choice with a full set of nails? he didn't even let me know that it was going to cost $15 more. but, they did give me a $15 card to come back for my fills. & said they wouldn't charge me the $15 for the shellac. So, I went back today & had a TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. literally went home in tears because 2 employees were arguing with me in front of everybody. I went back to get my fills & keep in mind I had a $15 off card for my fills & the lady said she wouldn't charge me the extra $15 for the shellac color. so it would only be $5. After I got my nails done, I told the SAME man from before that I had a $15 off card for my fills & that the lady said she wouldn't charge me the extra $15 for the shellac. He started talking to another employee about the situation & then they both come up to me saying they're going to charge me for the shellac. (I'm assuming they think I'm lying). They just keep arguing with me about the situation & I had a headache already from not eating all day. I went home crying because I felt so embarrassed & intimidated. will NEVER go back to this place. read more

I've been a loyal customer for 3 years along with my daughter. I have loved this place but today I went by because my dip was lifting and it never has before. When I talked to my guy(Henry) he all of a sudden got really rude and told me he was tired and to never come back. I was in a state of shock. How could you treat a customer of three years this way. I have seen customers come into the shop screaming and yelling and he has bent to over backwards to take care of them and make sure they were happy I had one little complaint and I was perfectly nice about it just wanted it fixed and he kicked me out of the shop. Well he just lost two customers for sure and I have sent him numerous recommendations because I work in the mall but no more I will tell everybody not to go there because I refuse to be treated that way. Take your business elsewear read more

I've gone here before and the first time I went with Henry and he was awesome! Today I went in with a lady not sure her name, but she did good on my pedicure and she got the wrong color of polish. And she was rushing on my shellac just to finish up. I was frustrated because I get in my car and see that there is polish off my nail bed. She also kept trying to have me upgrade to stuff I didn't want because I have sensitive skin, and she was very rude with her responses. It's frustrating because I paid a good penny and not for the quality I received. I might try this place again but make sure to go to Henry. read more

First of all you don't yell at your costumers as they are walking out. I got my nails done Tuesday night. It's Friday afternoon and one of them broke so I went back to get it fixed not a big deal. I guess they expected me to pay 5$ to get it fixed. Well if Tony wouldn't have done these nails paper thin they wouldn't have broke. I don't recommend this place. read more
