I recently moved back from Mexico and my prior regular stylist of 30 years was now 40 minutes away. I tried using a couple of in-home stylists near my new home, but after it took multiple calls to make an appointment(I think I’m an ok client — don’t complain and tip nicely), I was on the hunt for something different. Gave Venus a try for face waxing and liked the close location, service and results(my first time waxing). Came back a couple of weeks later for a hair cut and waxing — great service, good prices and friendly people. Heidi listened to how I wanted my hair cut and did it the best I’ve had since before I moved to Mexico. They definitely have a new client!!! Thanks, Heidi and Venus!

Clean salon and reasonable prices, along with a friendly staff. I came here with my mom and sister and all three of us were able to be seen right away considering we were walk-in’s. I got a gel manicure. Next time I would like a pedicure and possibly acrylics. I’ll be back to try out more services!

You cannot beat the price at this place. A full set was under $ 30 and the fills have ranged from $ 18 – 22 depending what I get done. The place is always clean.

I come here every time I want to get my eyebrows done, nails, and hair. They offer the best costumer service and you really cannot beat the prices they offer. There are about 5 different ladies working at the salon, and I will say that each of them do a great job. I definitely recommend Venus Nails & Hair to those that want to be pampered but don’t want to spend too much money.

I brought my mom here for some Mothers Day weekend pampering after she mentioned the place during a trip to the shopping center where it’s located. She was able to get a shampoo and set, plus a mani/pedi as a walk-in. The entire staff was very nice and welcoming. I decided to give them a try myself today and was very impressed with my mani/pedi and facial waxing services. The techs who worked on me were very thorough and gentle and the prices more than reasonable. Will definitely come back again! Terrific find right in my neighborhood.

I’ve been here a couple times now no appointment just on a whim kinda thing. I’ve never had to wait very long and I’ve never been turned away. The ladies are so nice and you can’t beat the price.

I’ve been here several times and all the ladies have at some point given me a pedi or mani or acrylic or haircut, color, highlights and they have all done great work and are very nice! They’re one of the few places left that do good work for a VERY affordable price! It’s ALWAYS packed in here! Even men come here and get haircuts and pedicures!

Best place! All the workers are so welcoming and friendly. They have great prices and do an awesome job! Haley is the best with eyebrows and everyone is great with everything else. Nicole, Tammy, and Lee are my usual go to people. Overall, they are my favorite!

They do a nice job at a reasonable price. I get my fills done every three weeks. Lee is always ready for me at my scheduled time, without a long wait.

Im disappointed, wishing I read these reviews before I went. I needed a place local to go on my lunch break. The lady who did my nails didn’t file them even and there is police on my toes! The«design» looks like I did it myself. When she helped put my shoe on she grabbed the skin of my toe instead of the strap of my sandal. I get to the office and my toe was still hurting. I look at the bottom of my foot to see she sliced it with her sharp nails. I can’t beleive I paid for this and reading all these reviews, they are still in business. :(Lesson learned. I won’t go here again. I will go to someone I know and trust and pay a couple more bucks for a good job. This is the first time I didn’t tip.

Never tell a customer that your not doing spa pedicures that day until 4 pm because I didn’t show up at the right time for them. I always to do walk ins! I will never give them my business again! If they told me that they were booked solid and short handed(which they were) then I would get it. Don’t make it seem like I am in the wrong! that is a good way to get me not to come back! You are a dime a dozen Douche Bags!

aafter coming here for years i feel like they have given up on good customer service. my mother & i have decided not to return. they rushed us through the entire service. i didnt even get a chance to decide on my polish color before i was told to go sit down at my chair. then i was moved twice to different chairs. i also had a technician reach across me to ggrab something from my manicurists table(literally her body was an inch from my face). i was obviously in the way everywhere they put me. giving horrible service to regulars is not a good business move. maybe if i come back in a year theyll give me the new customer experience again.

they do a very good job for little money but they are very busy.

I only go here to get my nails done because they’re prices are so cheap. However, I go to Giovanni’s for my waxings. Do not get your waxing done at Venus. They don’t know what they’re doing. And I agree w/Josephine, it really does seem they’re talking sh*t about us customers. I wonder if they ever wonder why they only get $ 2 tip for a $ 30 something job.

I come here only if I can’t book an appointment with my usual salon. If you’re looking for pizazz while your getting your nails and tootsies done, you won’t find it here. This is the type of salon you just go IN an OUT. They do a really good job for a really reasonable price. I just wish they would have updated magazines and would stop talking smack about me in Chinese =\
