Lifestyle Nails & Spa

The last 2 times I’ve been to this place, the pedicures were awful. Never going back there again.

Simply amazing! My nail tech recently retired and I was in search of a new manicurist. I decided to just walk in and take a chance. I saw pictures of nails by Vi and she just so happen to be available. It was my lucky day! Vi was so detailed! She is very good at what she does! I haven’t gotten a full set in years and she was very patient with all my requests. Definitely coming back!!!

I love all the girls that work here! Very sweet and great at what they do! Vi has done my nails for many years and I am always very happy!!! I highly recommend this place!!!

This place doesn’t even deserve a 1 star. I had an appointment today for a gel manicure and the lady that did my nails was rushing like she was on Amazing race, seems like she wants to finished first before the 2 walked in ladies (who doesn’t have an appointment) change their minds because of the 25mins wait. she made alot of mistakes, like using regular color instead of gel etc., my nails is really messy right now, this is the worst manicure i ever had. I was so pissed off and told the cashier that I am not happy with my experience and showed her my messy nails, colors everywhere that is not supposed to be there, Cashier was disgusting! instead of feeling sorry she gave me a smart ass remarks «WELL, SHE DID YOUR NAILS TOO LONG» and I’m like WHAT THE HECK! I I was ready to explode. I regret for giving her a tip. Very annoying! I feel like crying.
Now, I am trying to book an appointment to have my nails redone some other place today, i hate looking at my nails right now. Very disappointing experience. I will NEVER EVER go back to this place again!

I used to go here alot and the place was really clean and I loved the service. Because I liked it so much my husband purchased a $ 40 dollar gift certificate from here. Well long story short I got really sick and could not function and it took me a couple of years to recover from my illness. The gift certificate had an expiration of only six months and because I missed it I thought I would call and see if they would honor it or at least give me a discount for the $ 40 my husband spent. The person in charge who answered the phone sounded like a wet rag. I explained the situation to him and he just blankly said «no». I asked if they could work something out for me as a compromise and again he said «no». Bad customer service! This place has lost another customer.

During pedicure the technician made a phone call while massaging my feet and legs. For the duration I received one handed massage. Then, when it was time to apply polish she hadn’t removed all of the existing! I asked her to file it off (it was dark blue), she made a 20 second attempt & left. She came back with different polishes for me to choose from since the polish I originally picked wasn’t dark enough to cover the old polish! I asked again for her to get the existing polish off but she ignored me and just held the new polishes out to me. I chose one but was not cool with it. After finishing the top coat she took the foam separators out from between my toes, put my flips flops on & asked me to go to the nail station for my pink & white solar nails. I asked her to please put the foam back and she actually told me no. She said she’d redo the polish if it messed up. It’s been my experience that it’s not a best practice to tell a customer no. Of course the polish on my toes is a mess & after almost two-​hours (nails were another hour) I just wanted to leave. I will go back today & ask for a proper polish.

Salon closed for OPERATING WITHOUT A LICENSE for the past 2 years AND State has fined them 11K because of it (as of ⁷⁄₂₂). See

This place is like home! I’ve had a standing mani/​pedi appointment every two weeks the last 4+ years. I quickly grew to love the staff — some of whom became dear friends!
Not only are the employees fun and inviting, but the service is impeccable! Vi has always done my manicure (and always will!). She’s outstanding! She’s a perfectionist who allows nothing less than 110%. You will absolutely see her dedication and artistry reflected in your nails. I received countless compliments on her manicures over the last several years.
To top it off, prices are very competitive. The shop is extremely clean and sanitary, and you will leave feeling fabulous.

This was not a worthwhile visit at all. From the unpleasant, unsmiling man at the front who told me that my waxing would cost $ 10 to the quick in, quick out service — and then when I went to sign out it was suddenly $ 18. I knew there would be an argument, this was not a customer friendly sort of place so I ate it, but I will not be back.

Katie never disappoints me! She’s my fave pedicurist! Thank you for always giving me the most relaxing experience!

Personable and straightforward. I made an appointment for the Royal Pedicure and was pleased with the timeliness, value and efficiency. Can’t wait to try a manicure here!

This review is based on my 3^rd experience here. My prior two experiences were great, unfortunately this one was not. My gel nail color is bubbled in some places and they really needed a 3^rd coat because I can still see white in the light. The more troubling part of this visit is the cut I now have on my heel from the pedicure. The technician must have done too much callus removing. Remove callus please not live skin!

They took me in as a walk-​in and had my chair ready for me as soon as I walked in the door.
Lovely color selection and lovelier staff. Had a great glass of red wine and awesome massage from the chair.
I got the hot stone massage pedicure, totally worth the $ 40 price tag.
Definitely will be my nail salon

This is a good salon — they offer great services at reasonable prices and do a great job.
That said, I had my third unpleasant experience there this past weekend so I won’t be back. When I’m paying $ 40 or so for a service, plus 25% tip, I prefer a place that’s a little less hit or miss.
This past weekend my nail tech took off in the middle of my pedicure. She was nowhere to be found and the other nail techs were expressing some concern to each other about where she went. After waiting fifteen minutes for her to come back, I decided to leave. She charged me $ 30 even though I got no massage and no polish.
Even though this was bad experience, I do want to say that the majority of my experiences here have been good, and I do think this is a good salon.

Impressive gel nails!
My sweetheart and I stopped by for an impromptu manicure during our visit to Austin.
I had a gel manicure from Mimi. I declare her the second best manicurist I have ever had. I am pretty difficult to impress and generally won’t let anyone but my nail ladies back home clip my claws.
They also use milk chocolate wax that smells really good for their waxing services.

This salon is the only salon that I have been to in Austin where the gel French manicures lasts for 3 weeks with little to no chipping.
Customer service could be faster, and their prices are a little more expensive but 3 WHOLE WEEKS LADIES! That cuts the amount of time for refills!

Gel Nails, where have you been all of my life?!
Nails finally done right! As close to natural looking you can get for an acrylic set! Ashley is the best in my book. She’s thorough, consistent and always gets the nail shape I want right.

Absolutely awful experience here do not come here! First of all super rude service and incredibly slow! The mani pedi I got is absolutely awful
Second they don’t tell you they don’t have nail dryers! So I’m getting ready to head there they then suddenly decide to tell me I should have worn flip flops since my nails need two hours to dry… Trust me this was the biggest waste of my money. Don’t come to this place it’s awful

It’s pretty weird when you walk into a pedicure salon at 10am and it’s dead. Their TV’s are always off too. The whole place looks like a cheaper version of Arboretum Nails and Spa across the street but they have the same prices. I’ve been here a few times with my boss for team appreciation pedicures. We got the regular pedicure which is $ 25 and sometimes we’ll added the callus remover for the extra $ 5. Nothing out of the ordinary with their prices or the quality. Even the girls did an alright job and are nice, the manager however is another story. He’s not friendly whatsoever. This salon doesn’t have an area to go to after your nails are done so you’ll sit in your chair for a little bit so they can completely dry. But don’t sit too long (ie 5 – 10 min) or he’ll come over to boot you out when the place isn’t even full. He came over and raised both of the arms on mine and my boss’s chairs to get us to leave. Well we’re not coming back. The pedicures were fine but if you want to keep people coming back you should really have better customer service.

Wow! Walked in today at 1:15 PM to get a refill. I work next door at the gym so this place was convenient and I also needed to go to HEB after.
A per usual, there was a bit of a wait. Not a big deal… I’ll wait. Ten minutes later, the receptionist asks me if I know where their other salon down the street is. Um, no. Why? «Well, we have a technician that is available right now. You can drive down the street.»
OR NOT. I don’t have an issue waiting. How are you gonna assume that I have nothing better to do with my day than to drive the opposite direction of where I actually need to be? Sorry, but I’m not going to be pawned off by nail salons. I felt disrespected and unimportant.
Thanks for nothing.
