5 Star Forever Nails - Austin (TX)

2 /5 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

1 /5 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.

1 /5 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.

5 /5 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!
