List Best 18 Nail Salons in Austin, TX (Part 2)

Catherine Anderson This is such a great salon! Victor and Mai are both incredibly kind and welcoming. My nails are gorgeous and so high quality! Perfectly shaped, and exactly what I asked for. There are so many awesome stylish colors to choose from that I haven’t seen in many other salons. Super pleased with how transparent and affordable their prices are, too! Will definitely be coming back!

Rebecca Cruz Victor did an incredible job on my nails yet again! The staff is FANTASTIC, and the service is always top-notch. I highly recommend GLOSS Nails & Spa.

Ceci DLR ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Wonderful Experience! I visited this nail salon for the first time today, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The customer service was top-notch—everyone was kind, accommodating, and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. I had two different technicians work on me, and both did an amazing job. The person who did my pedicure was so sweet and meticulous, ensuring every detail was perfect. Then, the nail technician who did my manicure really took the time to reshape my nails beautifully. I never felt rushed, and I truly appreciated how much care they put into their work. The salon itself is spotless—it smells fresh, looks impeccably clean and organized, and has such a relaxing atmosphere. It was the perfect place to unwind and get pampered. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for excellent service and a peaceful experience!

Shyanne Clarkson Love this salon! Not only are they always able to pull of any design I ask for, but they ALWAYS and I do mean always, get the shape exactly right! I haven’t found my one person at this salon yet, but it is genuinely because they are all excellent every time. The prices are in the higher end, but I know that what I’m getting is worth the cost. I also want to speak to the overall experience. I’ve had nothing but great service at this salon. The owner herself has come over to do my sister in laws nails during a rush. I won’t say everyone, but most of the technicians are constantly checking in throughout the process to be sure I’m satisfied with the shape, color, or design. When I want my nails done right, I come here. Staff has always treated me and my friends/family kindly. I’ve come here on and off for 2 years and I’ve finally decided this is my main salon.

Jackie Martinez Cortes This was my first time at Domain Nails and I had a great experience. Anne did my nails and really took her time. I’m very happy with how they came out. I will be going back!

Daisy Ramos This was my first time coming here and My nails came out so good!! They took me as a walk in and I was able to get a full set of nails and pedicure done at the same time. Tammy and Gigi took care of me and my nails came out beautifully. I was in and out before you know it and the customer service was great!! The girl at the front was super nice and offered me water. The prices are super great and affordable which was the cherry on top for me!! Definitely will be returning

Lydia Bereket I have been coming to this nail salon for about 3 years now and they never disappoint. I have been seeing Tina for a few months now and she is so perfect in what she does!!! I’m a very picky person and they definitely take their time to satisfy my needs. In general the customer service is top tier as soon as you walk in and the care the nail techs put into doing your nails is beautiful. They take their time and make you feel so comfortable. They also have complimentary drinks, non alcoholic to alcoholic! Love! I have sent so many people here and they love it too so I highly HIGHLY recommend this place.

Chantol Pulley Great service! I moved to the U.S three years ago and I honestly have never gotten this level of service before at any salon. I always have to settle with my nails and here I get perfection…. The nail artist was Very detailed, my nails turned out beautiful. The environment is nice, clean and spacious. Very friendly staff as well. I 1000% recommend.

Kate Wells Pedicure was fine but I was not impressed with manicure. Didn’t push back my cuticles and painted straight over. Not very gentle and cut a couple of my cuticles very bad. Didn’t get tips and wanted my nails to be more even but that didn’t happen and now they’re all different lengths. The service felt rushed and lazy and there were many things that I have always gotten done automatically at other salons that I had to ask for. The ladies were nice but I don’t think I will be returning.

Jennifer Alden Update: Just had another amazing service of pedicure with relaxing massage, oils, hot stone, scrub and terrific conversation along with a new full set of pink and white acrylics. Great price and such a welcoming environment. Original review: Ive been to this location a number of times and the people I have worked with here have consistently been so friendly, remember me, and give terrific service. The services are not rushed, are very competitively priced and consistent. Ive tried other locations near me but I always return because I prefer the quality and service I always receive at this location. It is my to go from now on. For reference, I always get a gel pedicure, acrylics and eyebrow waxing.

Shelley Wineland I love going here because the ladies that work here are extremely nice! Nikki is really meticulous and will make your nails look so perfect and beautiful!

Marisa Garcia This place is WONDERFUL!! I loved everything about my experience today - not only is everyone so nice, but Phylicia did such a beautiful job making sure my nails and cuticles were healthy as well. The salon itself was awesome too; very cozy and a really comfortable place to relax in. In all, my nails look perfect and everyone there was having a great time! Please don’t question it - get your nails done here! (For my nails in the photo, I got a short almond - cut, shape, and file - and SNS dip with a matte finish)

Tonya Sonsteng Very accommodating. We were running late and the nail techs made sure to still give us the full treatment. Nails look and feel good.

Sunni Tribble Cathy was so sweet and energetic during my appointment. She is truly a ray of sunshine. This was my first time visiting the establishment, and I am certain I will return. The complimentary green tea was refreshing, Henry gave me a massage to die for, and they have lots of options when it comes to pedicures/manicures that are soooo relaxing. Plus the space is super cute.

Jennifer Holbert It was my first time at deluxe nails, and I’ll absolutely be back. Everyone I spoke with was so friendly and I was even offered a Vietnamese coffee when I sat down. My manicurist paid careful attention to what I asked for and did a beautiful job. I’m excited to go back next time. I’ve been to a variety of nail salons and have never felt such kindness before.

Sarai Luksch Cathy is incredible! She was efficient and did a phenomenal job! She is a very sweet woman who loves making her clients happy! Absolutely would recommend!

Kalliey Dunbar To start, the owner is incredibly kind. She made everyone in the shop the evening I went in feel special and she has a 100% customer centric business outlook. She wants each of their customers to leave fully satisfied and HAPPY with their nails which is rare to find in a salon. Unfortunately, the evening I went in, she was the only one doing nails and was bouncing around 3 appointments, myself included. I’ve never had such a rushed SNS DIP manicure. When my nails were initially dips, they were done so fast that I had dip powder caked onto my cuticles. I figured with filing perhaps it would all get taken care of — shape wise my nails are not bad, however, they are not smooth by any means and were left incredibly bumpy. As for the top coat, it has chunks and pieces of glitter from previous customers in it so my nails are left looking and feeling bumpy, gritty, and with pieces of random colored glitter all over them. Ultimately, I was left picking chunks of of SNS powder off my fingers the entire evening until it all finally came off. Lastly, I was charged a total of $75 (which the owner presented to me as a discounted price after “taking off $10”) for this rushed manicure, which doesn’t add up (pictures of menu attached). An SNS Manicure is priced at $45 + $6 for French and $11 for paraffin = $62. Where the additional $13 came from is beside me. I didn’t figure this out until I was at home and I’m not one to cause a big fuss but all in all, while the owner was sweet as can I be, I don’t think I’ll be returning to this salon in the future.

Tia Berkley I will say that they have a cool little spot but I got my services on Thursday and today my nail bubbled and did this. I was trying to find a place were I can get my lashes as well as my nails done in the same spot but I think I may want to go back to my old nail salon. I have never had this issue with them. Tomorrow I will go back to Arbor nail spa and have them fix it properly because I paid my money of course.

Gena Hardison Lee has done my nails my past few visits and she always does a pristine job. She takes the time to make sure that each nail is perfectly shaped, even, and painted to every edge. I appreciate her attention to detail, it helps my nails so they don’t break/crack between fills. Today we did a fun design and she went above and beyond. They’re so beautiful and I’m grateful for all her efforts. Looking forward to coming back to see her again!

Nikki Boney I came here with my friend (she did not get any services) to get a full acrylic set with gel French tips and a gel French tip pedicure. The tech seemed annoyed when she found out my friend wasn’t getting a service. The pedicure was done first and seemed fine even though I don’t remember half of the items being completed. When I was getting my full set done the tech was rude and seemed annoyed at me for talking to my friend during the service. She was doing a removal for Gel X extensions and told me to keep my hand flat so the chemical doesn’t get on my hand as it will irritate my skin. I did as I was told but during the removal of the chemical some got on my thumb. It started to itch and I tried to wipe it off myself and she told me I’d be able to wash my hand soon and I washed my hands a few minutes later. A chemical which was known to be a skin irritant was left in my hand for multiple minutes. She was very rough with my hands, gripping me tightly (enough to bruise which is pictured) and she kept digging her nails into the sides of my fingers. Once it came time to check out the tech kept hovering over the receptionist and glaring at us. I reviewed my receipt in the car and felt there were some issues/discrepancies with what I was charged. We went back inside and requested to speak with a manager. We were told by the receptionist that the manager was not here but we could speak with her over the phone. My anxiety was high at this point so my friend spoke with her and started to discuss the issues with what I was charged. The manager stated she would be there to speak with us in person in about 5 minutes. The whole time my friend was talking to the manager over the phone and while we waiting for the manager, the tech kept coming up to us trying to intimidate us after I repeatedly stated I did not want to talk and that we were waiting for the manager. She did not leave until after I rather loudly told her to leave me alone. While we waiting it was obvious that her and other staff members were speaking negatively about us while looking our direction and whispering. Once the manger arrived I attempted to speak with her and get clarification on what and why I was charged the way I was. She was extremely rude and didn’t seem to really care about my experience as a customer. She pretty much told me pricing was the way it was and if I didn’t like it I should have reviewed the pricing prior to the service being done. I don’t understand why French on my toes was $8 while French on my hands was $20. I felt that there were services that I was charged that were not provided but the manager assured me that they looked at the cameras and that they were completed. I no longer had issues with that. My main problem was how I was treated and ganged up on by staff members when all I wanted was to speak with a manager. The manager gave nonchalant apologies that seemed very in-genuine. I expressed concerns about being pushed and practically bullied into getting different services in the past and she told me I needed to advocate for myself and just say no. I asked her how many times I should have to say no before I am no longer pushed and pestered. She didn’t answer. She attempted to blame the issues on a language barrier when it was clear that the tech could understand me perfectly and I had no issues understanding her either. She stated that she wasn’t here when the rude behavior took place and I said that she shouldn’t have to be here for her employees to treat people with kindness. She then raised her voice at me telling me “Don’t tell me how to do my job”. At that point I left. I’ve been coming here for months and clearly they have let their service standard go. As someone who also works in the service industry this is in no way how you speak to a customer who has had a bad experience. Keep in mind I had and have in no way asked for my money back. I simply wanted clarification and to discuss my concerns with a manager but clearly that is not allowed here.

Julie H They took no care to listen to what I wanted and rushed through the appointment. I asked to keep the length and shape of my original nail and just make them more uniform. The lady chopped off all my length into to these little nubs, left the ends super jagged, and inconsistent shape. The French itself looks awful and the white is running on some nails. The manager did offer to have someone else fix it but I’d already lost all the length and figured it is just easier to fix it myself. Sad I wasted $30.

Ivonne Zamudio I’ll always trust my girl Kim to take care of me!! This is the only salon I’ve gone to since moving to Austin 3 years ago. She always recommends the style and product that best fits my wants (gel x, dip, hybrid) she is so patient with me and always does amazing work!! This is hybrid gel in the color BL3. Thank you Kim!!

sophia whatever Ms. Jenny did my acrylic nails and Ms. Jade did my gel toes. Everyone was super nice and engaged in small talk conversation! Ms. Jenny always ensured I liked what she was doing from the shape, application, and design. At first, I wouldn’t say I liked the how the design was turning out, but Ms. Jenny showed me multiple options until we found one I liked. Ms. Jade worked very hard to ensure I liked the design on my toes as well. I loved how detail oriented she was on my toes. The owner of the shop was also super nice! She told me how she is working to improve her media skills for her salon. Overall everyone in the salon cares about the customer and salon.

Jill Holechek Kevin is a nail master! Linda is a pedicure goddess. We decided to try a new salon and could not be happier. Relaxing and chill and very professional. I highly recommend this salon. Easy parking, clean salon, and appointment making also.

Sandra Gallegos After giving up on a different nail salon, I found Oasis and haven’t gone anywhere else since. I don’t even live in the area anymore, but still go there. Initially, I tried a few different techs and they all provided great service. Nowadays, I mostly go to Kim and she’s also great. Everyone there is friendly and provide great service. Here are pics of some of my dip manis.

mandie m I hadn’t been to a nail salon in a while because i couldn’t find one that i loved and after visiting here on Friday i can say that i will definitely keep coming back! Front desk was very kind. My nail tech Vivian was so friendly, efficient and quick. She was very attentive and kept checking in to make sure that i loved the shape and color of my nails. I left in loveeee with my nails!

Kristy Kietchai I appreciate how I was immediately aware of prices, given time to clearly choose my colors and explain my design, and the care of attention to detail my tech Mia produced. I had great conversations and had a great time visiting this team. I love it here. All the techs are really good but for me its Mia who provides me the reassurance and confidence I expect in my designs every single time.

Eva Michelle Zapata I was in search of a new go-to spot in town. Stepped into Highland Nails without an appointment and was seated right away! I showed my tech, Tara, the design and she knew exactly what she was doing. She also checked in with me along the process to see if I liked the shape of my nails and the color, I really appreciated that. HIGHLY recommend checking them out.

Kristyn K I’ve gone here pretty regularly for the past two years. I would rate the manicures I’ve gotten over that time a B/B+, always pretty good and it’s convenient in terms of location. However, the manicure I got today is so low effort and honestly in the top 5 worst manicures I’ve ever gotten in my life. The filing is uneven on most nails and one hand is shaped way better than the other. And I came in with a good canvas because my nails were long and I wanted them shorter. But the main issue is that the person painted and cured all 5 nails on each hand at the same time. Never in my life have I had that in the dozens and dozens of gel manicures I’ve received at salons - they normally paint and cure 2-3 nails at a time for each hand. I even commented that of yeah I’ve never had someone do that and he changed the subject. And that poor technique is why my nails are lumpy and look awful. The place wasn’t even that busy so I don’t understand the need to try to rush through and do the entire hand at one time. I unfortunately will not be returning.

Haro Marisa First time here and it did not disappoint! Fast service and Tammy did an amazing job on my nails. She was super detail-oriented, which I really appreciate, and she was so sweet. Definitely coming back!

Denise The staff is always polite and does a nice job. Tammi did a beautiful job w sparkle for the holidays. I usually do sns dip manicure; but, they have variety of pedicure services too.

Alexandria Schurtz I went in to get acrylic nails long and almond shaped. Alex gave me good feed back and great suggestions what to have. My fingernails are small and I am a nail bitter. So my choice wouldnt of looked good and lasted. Thanks Alex for your suggestion and look forward to working with you to keep my nail healthy and pretty.

Laura Chalmers Alex and John were wonderful. I am very sensitive on my feet and John made sure that I did not squirm and Alex did an amazing job on my ombre nails I have found my new home salon thank you guys so much

Lidiya Alexander This is my regular place to get nails done and I have been going there for the past 3 years. I love when Tammy is available. She does such a great job. But honestly so is everyone else.

Alyssa Cornett I love this nail salon! Ive been going here for years and they are always so kind, thoughtful and considerate of my requests. Im not particular about who does my nails here because I genuinely feel like everyone they have on their team does phenomenal work! And theyre very reasonably priced compared to other salons in the area and offer perks when certain reward points are reached (which is a total plus for regulars like me). Overall, highly recommend!

Bailey Zavaleta I’ve been getting my nails done by Sony since I was 17, I’m 24 Now. She’s been open to all of my nail ideas and I value her opinion so much. Shes absolutely KILLER at a Stiletto nail and I LOVE her French Manicures. She pays attention to the shape of the nail so well and it’s what I enjoy the most about her work. My experience in her chair is always positive and she makes me feel like the prettiest girl in the salon when I leave. She hand paints, does airbrush, and 3D gel. I ONLY book my nails with Sony! She does an amazing job of fitting me into her schedule when I need a new set. I wake up bright and early just to get my nails done by her and I typically suck at waking up before 10am.

Erika Wong Kim’s Nails has been my go to for almost 4 years! I go to Sony regularly and I am always so so happy with the results. She takes great care of my nails and always makes sure I leave loving everything. I’m always hard on my hands but my nails last forever. Trustworthy, kind and clean!

Angelica Lugo I’m sad to be writing this but super happy at the same time because even though I am moving I will NEVER stop RAVING about Kim’s. I was a loyal customer for the past couple years and truly, if you want excellent, expedient and friendly service come here. I highly recommend them. I’ve gotten my nails done by T, Amanda, Sam, and Tina. All are amazing and I’m sad to be leaving but trust me, if I’m in Austin I’m going here.

Hoanganh Duong I recently had the pleasure of getting my nails done by Mia, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! From the moment I walked into her space, I felt welcomed and relaxed. Mia’s professionalism and warm personality immediately set the tone for an amazing experience. She took the time to discuss exactly what I wanted, offering helpful suggestions and ideas to make my vision come to life. Her attention to detail is truly unmatched—I could tell she genuinely cares about the quality of her work and making her clients feel special. Mia’s precision and artistry stood out during the process. Whether it was shaping, buffing, or adding intricate designs, every step was done with care and expertise. The products she used were high-quality, and she maintained excellent hygiene throughout, which made me feel confident and comfortable. The final result? Absolute perfection! My nails have never looked this beautiful. The design is flawless, the polish is smooth and even, and I’ve received so many compliments since leaving her chair. If you’re looking for someone who combines talent, passion, and exceptional customer service, Mia is your go-to nail artist. I can’t wait to book my next appointment with her!

tiffany dormiani I am always so impressed with Christina as my nail tech! She is incredibly creative and artistic, always creating designs that truly stand out. Her talent shines through in every session, and I always leave feeling fabulous. On top of her skills, Christina is genuinely kind and makes each visit a pleasure. If you’re looking for a nail tech who combines artistry with a warm personality, she’s the one!

Megan Vallee Christina is the best! Whatever you want, she can do it! I love these super fun beach nails!!!

paige jefferies Christina is a true gem! She is so sweet, efficient, and super talented. You can tell she is passionate about her work and puts thought and care into it. My nails are gorgeous, unique, great quality and she even comes up with additional ideas to complement the designs I ask for. Highly recommend her!! The rest of the staff and vibe are also very pleasant ☺️

Jackie Lunardi I have been going to Nails by Pro for the past 5 years and will never go anywhere else. They are incredible, especially Christina. She is very very talented. She even did my nails for my wedding. Thank you, Christina!

Ben Alvarado The staff here did an excellent job on our pedicures- best ones weve ever gotten, and Christina did a fantastic job on my girlfriends nails.

Maddy Franco I was wanting to try out a new nail place and I came across this one. With all the good reviews I was excited to try it out this place definitely exceeded my expectations and I will definitely come back. They had great service and the prices were very reasonable!!

Marin Solace I got the deluxe mani and it was lovely. My nails turned out great, the hand massage was great and long. I would def come back here. Everyone was really nice ❤️

Blaire Benoit Update: Reply is definitely a LIE. She never once said she couldnt achieve the look. She was too busy answering phones, paying attention to customers walking in and not paying attention to my nails. I will be there TOMORROW! Scheduled a new full set, polish change on my feet and eyebrows. The nails were ridiculous! I asked for coffin shape, but i hate them. Cancelled all other services. The lady that did my nails did what she wanted to do.

saratops walken Ive been coming here for years. Back in 2003-ish, this was my go to place to get my brows waxed. Im not overly fussy anyway, so I rather enjoyed the quick and precise clean up of my brows. Flash forward to 3 years ago and I started getting gel manicures. Again, I just do a nude/neutral pink and dang if they dont knock that out of the park as well. Tony has been my go to nail tech, and he has taught me a lot about nail care and hygiene. He encourages me to ask questions and try new things, his knowledge is vast. I ask questions but he hasnt been able to get me to change my ombre pink acrylic. I dont even know if Im saying that right, but I dont care. It looks clean and neat. They will make sure Im satisfied. I look forward to my appointments because the vibe at City Nails is marvelous, its about your comfort and satisfaction.

Mari Di Why would make an appointment? I made an appointment for 10:00am when they open. I walked in at 9:59 and three people were on the pedicure chair already….People walk in and have been serviced before me since they are regulars. Currently 10:30 and I am still waiting…and only 3/6 people currently sitting getting serviced were here before me …. lol To make it even better it’s my birthday today now I’m having to push my plans back. The reason i haven’t walked out yet is because they service hard gel which a lot of salons don’t sadly. Update: Currently 10:50 and barely just asked what i want for my nail color….no customer service to accommodate my experience so far or my scheduled appointment

Deanna Logan I have had my nails done on numerous occasions but always requested dip, acrylic, or gel polish. This time she asked if I wanted to try the zen nail builder. There are multiple natural looking colors to choose from or you can get clear and paint over it. My color is milky white with a rose gold glitter polish. It did not take as long as acrylic would. Give nail builder a try!

Laura Perez I can’t say enough good things about Sandy and her amazing team! Not only are her prices incredibly reasonable, but the quality of her work is outstanding. Sandy is so thoughtful and kind, always making you feel valued and cared for. One of the highlights of her dedication is the Thanksgiving lunch she throws for all her customers every year and it’s such a special gesture, and the delicious Vietnamese food is unforgettable! The other two employees are just as wonderful attentive, kind, and always ensuring an exceptional experience. The overall service here is unmatched. If you’re looking for a nail salon that truly goes above and beyond, Sandy’s is the place to go!

Lisa Franco Sandy’s nails is the only place in south Austin I trust in for my manicure and pedicures. I’m always very happy with the outcome. My pedicures are pain free and leg massage are amazing. I’m a returning customer for over 3 years.

Victoria Rodriguez I always have an amazing experience with Sandy and her staff! I got exactly what I asked for, and Sandy was very nice as always. She provides amazing customer service every time!

Destiny Dawn Farish I’ve been getting my nails done since I was 12 and these are the best nails I’ve ever had !!!! Kelly was wonderful she was quick but still detailed!

Julie Chen Really really bad. I came here for a full set of Acrylic nails and I wanted a certain two colors which they later on after applying all the acrylic stuff and gel base coat, told me that the color was only for dip which they could’ve specified earlier. Then, when the lady was buffing my nail with the drill she took off my skin which hurt like a mf. And then on top of all that, my nails didn’t even come out good they’re crooked, the polish isn’t even covering the whole nail, the top coat isn’t covering the whole nail. I’m going to redo it myself. I personally don’t recommend for nails. Other services, i don’t know. Good luck.

Betty Chen 4.5 stars. Overall happy with nails. They removed a poorly done gel x nail from another salon and gave me hybrid gel instead. It looks a lot more natural. There are a few imperfections - fluff stuck in between layers of gel polish and a few bubbles. Im sure if I noticed during appointment they would have fixed but I only noticed when I got home. Would come back for my infills and get the imperfections fixed.

Antoinette Perry I had such a lovely experience at triangle nails spa! Ivy did my nails and did a fabulous job. She made sure each step was to my liking (the length of the gel extension, the color, the shape) prior to completing the other steps. They turned out great! I am very pleased. The prices are reasonable too :) i highly recommend! I don’t live here full time, but when I am out here I will be coming back!

Mia Rivera I have been coming here for three years, and I absolutely love it! Even though it’s a 45-minute commute, I don’t mind making the drive to receive their excellent service. I often invite friends to join me for a pedicure or manicure. I especially love getting my nails done with Vivian! She always does amazing work with nail designs and polishes using the Hybrid Gel. The hybrid gel has made my nails strong, long, and healthy!

AnaLu Alencar (I toke these pictures I was still at the nail salon, probably 10 minutes after I got them done, and it already looks like 2 weeks old and it’s just bad, I don’t know if the specific lady that did my nails wasn’t experienced, or the fact that the register lady kept rushing her because of walk ins, or if the service is just that bad.) I was trying to find a place to get acrylic nails, I saw the reviews of this place and thought I would give it a try. Just wish the 4.5 was accurate, I was very excited, I’m going on vacation and wanted to have pretty nails for the pictures, but it looks like I got them done 2 weeks ago instead. I can clearly see my original nails (and if you have ever done acrylic/gel nails you know that they start showing up a little after a week or so, depends on how fast your nails grow) and not only that, but the details also very rough, I wish I had just got the press on nails that it would be better and cost me less. The appointment was supposed to take 1 hour and a half, I made an appointment days before, but the place started getting some walk ins and the lady that stays in the register kept rushing the one that was making my nails, it may even be the reason why the service was very disappointing. I have never used my time to leave bad reviews, but this really pissed me off and turned a moment of excitement because of my vacation into a self conscious moment.

Michael McCollum Cute salon and the experience was great. My daughter had her nails done with a cute design that came out great for a special occasion. Great prices for the base services and lots of options for elevated services.

Kate Len OBSESSED is an understatement! This place is the real deal. Everyone that works here is the bomb. Maria and Amy are my favs for the nail services I like: acrylic + gel, and Michael is my fav for pedicures; however, I trust all the techs there to do a great job. I visit every couple of weeks for years now and they never disappoint. Great prices too. Thanks Austin Regalia!

Alex Garcia *EDIT* been 2 weeks now and my nails have held up perfectly. Got my first set here a week ago and couldnt be happier! No price surprises, beautiful atmosphere, just so accommodating. My nail tech was gentle and the nails look so sleek. Go here!

Kerri Battles I brought my mom here for two pedicures and my mom also got a polish only manicure. First off this place is posh as nail salons go. It has a real lux feel. The decor is really nice and they have tons of high end new manicure chairs. They go the extra step in terms of having essential oil diffusers going and nice music. The pedicures were well worth the cost and the care they took with my polish was above and beyond what I’ve had at other places in South Austin. The bathrooms are clean and nice, very pleasant. Their polish selection is out of this world. I think they had nearly 20 types of yellow for instance. They were so nice and patient with my older mother. I will for sure be coming back.

Jocelyn Chavez Clean, relaxing environment. Unable to complete my request of a neutral nail based and neutral colors with my olive skin. The nail tech blamed in on the lighting and was validated by her team that the design did match when I mention it did not the picture. You can see how she over buffed my nails under my base. Bubbles and uneven gel painted on. They charged me a full manicure even though it wasn’t complete. Very unprofessional. Not worth the prices. Go to cute nails salon for the same price but better service.

Liliana Latorre Amazing Nail salon! Everyone is extremely friendly! The service is great. There are so many colors to choose from! I highly recommend Veronica for a dip powder. She is super meticulous and pays attention to detail. I will definitely come back! I did a pedicure with Andy, who did a great job. Super relaxing experience.

Abbey Spencer I had an amazing experience at The Nail Bar! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The salon itself was spotless, with a relaxing and inviting atmosphere. Zena did my nails, and she was absolutely fantastic! She was meticulous and gentle, ensuring I was comfortable the entire time. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she made sure every nail was perfect. I couldn’t be happier with the results! I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to everyone. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

mickey kirylo I got my nails done here for homecoming and it was outstanding! The service was impeccable; everyone was welcoming and made me feel a part of the family! I received were that of the highest quality, and everyone was very professional. I recommend this shop to all of my friends!

alex p they’re nice but don’t know how to do nails. the nail tech doing my set cut my nails shorter than i wanted after i told her i wanted long - medium nails and then said “students don’t need long nails” like miss girl that’s not for you to decide… and then my set was uneven and had dents in it, barely lasted a week too. literally the worst set i’ve ever gotten, i recommend just going somewhere else picture was taken a day after i got my nails done

Alexandra Burgos DO NOT COME HERE IT IS UNSANITARY AND TERRIBLE They soaked off my nails in a dish that has a slot full of acetone for each finger and proceeded to put the drill bits in there to "clean them." After the soak off they proceeded to KEEP all the acetone my fingers were sitting in and pour it into another container to SAVE IT. How gross is that. (I saw another review who had this same experience of reusing acetone and the salon replied saying they do not -- I can assure you that is what happened; what are the chances of multiple people making the EXACT same false accusation) The uncleanliness wasnt even my issues. She started by putting on tips and cutting one of the thumbs SIGNIFICANTLY shorter than the other fingers and didnt bother to fix it until I spoke up and she immediately took it off and redid it. I went to get French tips (which I get very often) and showed her a photo that she hardly even glanced at. She proceeded to give me what I think are the worst french tips Ive ever gotten: the french was uneven, thick, completely straight across, and the nail itself was bumpy and SO thick. She started the whole process without ever asking me what color I wanted and when I was unhappy with it I asked if we could put another over top to dull the pink-ness of it and she brought me colors that were opaque, so I said what was on was fine because the other colors were worse. When I went back the next day (yes I had to go back they were that bad) she tried to argue with me that I approved the color, to which I said yes, but AFTER you did the whole set without asking what I wanted. She ended up fixing them and filed the nails down for probably about 40 minutes before repainting them in a solid color -- like if it took that much filing to get them to a normal thickness, why would you let me leave like that yesterday????? My nails are HORRIBLY damaged and have rings of fire -- I have been getting dip for as long I can remember and this has NEVER happened to me. DO NOT COME HERE save your time, money, and business!!!!!!!! PS. When they get bad reviews they just comment youre talking about the wrong salon. This is 10000% the salon I went to and this was my experience. Unsanitary, rude, and looking for an easy way out because they know they provide horrible services.

Luisa Diaz I want a refund. They literally hurt my nail SO much when removing my old nails that the pain was so severe that I decided to carefully remove the nail MYSELF. The woman helping me hurt me multiple times and kept going even when I told her. I usually never leave review but this pain has not been worth “the convenience” DO NOT GO. Would not recommend this salon ever. I see the good reviews and they are probably from people that have been there just once but this was unacceptable.

Harmony Lappin Calhoun Great job! Reasonable price! The ladies were very kind and went above and beyond. Arm and leg message was amazing! I feel so pampered. Then I went next door for milk tea and macarons!

Jordan Cooley Went here for the first time a few weeks ago and had booked a gel manicure + ombre effect. Made sure to ask the nail tech which colors would work best, but they ended up not being able to do the ombré. Got a marbling effect instead and was happy with the outcome. Come back and try a different nail tech, just one color for a gel refill. First attempt resulted in a really bumpy finish, not clean lines, really thick gel. Which they asked me to come back in today to have it redone. It’s definitely better, but still pretty lumpy and the paint isn’t clean (esp near the cuticle line). Really lovely staff and super personable, but for $76+ tip for a simple gel refill that took 3.5 hours total between the two days, I’m going to take my business elsewhere.

Laura B. Megan did an amazing job on our friendship tattoos and was so lovely to hang out with. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a tattoo. Thanks again, Megan!

Nina I was recommended to go to this place by friends. I had “gel nail extensions with simple art” done by Maria Rodriguez. I love them so much! Maria listened to my requests, was real with me, gentle with my hands, and took her time in making my nails perfect. It’s worth it. They make me feel so cute. And speaking of cute, wow the studio aesthetic is immaculate. I feel like this place was made just for me. I loved it. The owner and the front desk people were friendly and helpful. The nail artists were generally kind to each other and seemed happy to be working there from what I could tell as a customer. It was clean and professional and they played a good mix of music. The space is on the smaller side and I was impressed that they have fume extractors at every table. It didn’t have the strong chemical smell of most salons. I heard they just had a new management change before I went so I would pay attention to the more recent reviews. Would recommend! ☺️ (And have recommended.)

Mary Ann L I wrote a review and deleted it but after some thought I feel I should share. I had high expectations after reading the reviews but it was a total let down. I wanted to get gel x extensions and some bling on my nails. I wanted coffin nails after using press on and liking the look. My nail tech was nice but my nails didn’t come out like I had hoped. First, some of the nails were put on crooked. I mentioned this and she told me, no, they were fine. I wanted coffin nails but I didn’t want long nails. She told me they didn’t have any that were short. Her clipping down the medium length nails lost any of the appearance of coffin style. They’re square. The polish was so thick they look clunky and not cute. She opted for glitter rather than stones and it looks amateurish.Then, this morning the thumb nail popped off! I haven’t had them a week and it fell off. I wasn’t doing anything that would cause it to do this. I had already made an appointment elsewhere to get them removed. I won’t be back.

Summer Stark Gracie was AMAZING! I had a request for Twenty One Pilots nails prior to attending the concert and she crushed it! She is so talented and took the time to hand paint each nail with the designs I wanted. She was incredible. I was so pleased!
