Lee Nails

I just got the best pedicure from Sylvia! She was a very sweet lady who was very good at her job! I have gone to many different nail places because I want to find a person who I am comfortable with… I just found her at the Rim at Lee Nails! I like to get a pedi every 3 weeks… I’m making this MY pedi place… with Sylvia!

I’m in San Antonio for work but decided to get a shellac manicure. Despite their 2 star rating I tried this place. No wait, my manicurist was friendly, she understood everything I requested. I have very short nails which can be cumbersome with a dark color but she did amazing. I HIGHLY recommend Sylvia.

I have been going to see Ann at this salon for a little over half a year. Here in San Antonio its hard to find a technician that is so precise with their work. Look no further then Ann. I know I am a tough client coming from California and want everything perfect and with her I never have to worry and for once I can just sit and relax while getting my nails done knowing the work will be done right. I get a variety of acrylic nails and a shellac pedicure bi-​weekly and can’t complain about one thing. Ann is always flexible and works you in last minute when needed. Once you start going to Ann you won’t want to go to anyone else. Thank you Ann for being so awesome at what you do!

We were visiting from out of town and needed to get my shellac done on my nails because it had worn out quickly from being at the pools and I decided to go here.
It is a quiet atmosphere so that is peaceful. The people at Lee Nails are so nice and very polite. They were not pushy or trying to up sell everything at all, just did my nails similar to what I had before because I liked what I came in with. I also let my daughter get a pedicure and they did an excellent job and added a fun touch with a spider web and spider design because it’s October.
My nails look amazing and that is saying a lot. We go to an excellent nail salon in Denver and I am picky, so I wasn’t sure what to expect not being from the area. I am very happy we stopped in and if we are ever in the area again we will come back!

I’ve been going to Lee Nails at The Rim for a few years now. In the most recent months they have changed almost the entire staff; however NOT for the better. The only familiar faces are Ann, Mary, and the American lady. The service now is HORRIBLE. I have done both manicure shellac and artificial nails. The shellac was not even lasting 10 days before it would start cracking and peeling. When I moved to artificial nails the tech is very sloppy, the shavings from the filing are left all over my hands, there is no cuticle clean up and the polish painting skills are sub par. My nails don’t even get painted correctly. I tried and tried and tried again, but this salon went down in quality. Do not waste your time or money there.

I’ve have been getting my nails done for a long time and this was the worst nail fill I’ve ever had. Bumpy, rough, still doesn’t look good. Looks nice on the inside but the nail tech I had was horrible

Sometimes it’s a hit or miss– but I’m glad I kept coming. They are really good play what they do. Some are better than others in certain areas. I personally like going to Kelly when I’m want to do a design on my nails.

This place was awful. I get fake nails religiously when I walked in I asked if I could have powder and that’s when Anne told me that it would be cheaper if I were to get shellac, so I did. Low and behold they were not cheaper. Then I got a pedicure and the lady who did my nails asked if I wanted the same color and didn’t tell me that it cost $ 20 extra! They are just interested in their money and will con you to get it. It is now a little over a week and the top of my nails by my cuticles are jagged and catching on everything. The service was terrible and I will NEVER go back.

Have gone several times for pedicure. Always a great job but have to admit some employees could be nicer.

Won’t go back! Save your money.
Bad service, low quality of work. I was very disappointed
One of two men that work there gave me a pedicure, he was rude, and snapped at me when I asked him to clean my big toe nail. He he didn’t give me a message and simply rubbed lotion on half of my legs carelessly he chatted around.
I am upset and want my money back.

Awful! Go elsewhere!
If you want a 6 year old to paint the skin around your nails this is the place for you!!! They struggle to see their mistakes as most of the nail techs need Vision assistance that they don’t have– then they’ll huff and puff when you point out a mistake! Literally paint all over my toes and fingers! Perfect for a wedding!
Sylvia is the only english speaking angel and redeeming element of this place! Get out, Sylvia, before the rest of incompetent nail printers take you down and close!!!

This place is awful. Don’t think that because it’s in a good location that you’ll get a great manicure. This was less than mediocre. The lady had open sores on her hands that were bleeding? I mean really. So gross.

My girls wanted their nails painted, and we are staying just across the street for vacation, so despite the reviews, we came here. I figured they could at least do a fingernail/​toenail paint job without complication… Boy was I WRONG! Not only do my daughters nails look HORRIFIC, they also left her leather rainbow flip flops on and got polish all over them. I asked about the polish on the flip flip and they kept trying to assure me polish was not there (when it was highly visible). So the technician then took their high concentration acetone remover and rubbed it all over the LEATHER flip flop to try to get it off. Epic fail! Thank goodness I chose to wait on my pedi and shellac manicure because of the reviews. I would have hated to see what they would have looked like! If you want even a halfway decent job done… This is NOT the place to come!

I stopped in by random one afternoon looking to get a manicure and shellac done. I assumed the nail shop would be good since it’s located in the Rim but I was wrong … very wrong. For no apparent reason the man who was doing my nails was rushing. The shop wasn’t even busy so I don’t understand why he rushed doing my nails. When my nails were finished and I took a look at them I was so unhappy. The very tip of my nails were missing paint. He didn’t even paint my full fingernail. I explained to him I needed him to fix it but he over talked me and said my nails were too short to paint. I was mad I paid and left. But I thought you know what I paid for a service I didn’t like so I called the shop and spoke to the manger and explained the situation. He apologized for the inconvenience and asked me to come back and they would re do my nails no charge. I will say I do appreciate the great customer service by fixing my situation, that’s the only reason they will get 2 stars from me. However my shellac only lasted a week and a half minimum. I’ve had shellac before and I know the rules that apply. I will not be returning to this nail shop ever again. Too much hassle for something that should be simple. I suggest you stay away and go somewhere else!

Went there today despite all the negative reviews on here, thought I’d give it a chance. In a nutshell: my nails look awful, the experience was awful and I will never go back.
When I walked in, it seemed friendly, very nice decorations, high class. I am not picky or high maintenance so I thought this was very nice.
10 minutes into my manicure, about 8 workers came from the back room and were insanely loud. At this point I was the only customer in the salon.
I wanted French tip shellac, they look like a rookie completed them, but the man was clearly experienced. He was insanely rushed.
At the end they give you a shoulder massage, which was more stressful than relaxing. He rushed through the massage with karate chop style massage and quick rubs, it was uncomfortably awkward.
In conclusion, do not waste your money. If I could get my $ 40 back I would! I’ve never left a place without tipping, but I did today!

Terrible service and rude technician! I got a shellac manicure that could have been done better by a 3^rd grader. My cuticles were painted and the polish was so thick at the tip that it could be peeled off. The technician thought it was ok and the owner simply told me to come back later that day. Would not recommend this place!

This was the worst place I’ve ever been. Everyone working here was rude and the pedicure I had was aggressively done to the point to where I had to verbally communicate it was painful. The water was luke warm at best, and she tried to upsell me an additional service. There was a guy (working) there who was literally hocking loogies. (Not sure how to spell that, but you get the picture) I can’t imagine how this place stays in business, being that there is a complete lack of professionalism. I’m confident I could get better service at the nearest elementary school where they might allow kinder kids to give it a whack

If I could give a 0 I would. Nice people but terrible pedicure. I paid for the 50 minute green tea special and got a 25 minute pedicure. The parfain wax was blazing hot and burned my feet. Worst of all even after sitting under the uv light my polish was clumpy and still not dry. Worst pedicure of my life. Not worth $ 25 let alone $ 50!

A friend code this place because of convenience to both of us however I wish I would have read the reviews before going. My pedicures was not very friendly, the water was not even luke warm, I paid for the upgraded massage and pedicure and got 32 minutes of what was supposed to be 45 minutes. Not worth the extra $ 13. I would even go as far to say that the regular 30 minutes pedicure would not have been worth the $ 30 price.

What can I say? Yay! I’m a fan. After coming to Lee Nails once for a pedi with my mom and now once for a mani, I can tell you this will be my go-​to place when I am visiting home with my mom for a treat.
Now, if you know me, you know that going to get my nails ‘groomed’ is something I do about every-​other month. So, I’m not claiming to know the ins and outs of perfectly quaffed nails but, I do know that both times I have been here I feel pretty walking out.
There is a large ‘menu’ for for different kinds of pedis (ranging in price with extra services.) I went with a step above the basic option and the hot towels were quite a treat.
Recently, I got a shellac manicure and I have never ever seen so many color options! By the end of my appointment, every cuticle was gone and I got a shoulder rub. What?! Hello, bonus!
