Rayleigh did an amazing job! He took my idea I made it 10 times better. He was super nice and made my cousins and I laugh a lot. Lovely nails quality has definitely improved. They have lots of friendly and talented technicians. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who needs services. 10/10!

I love this nail business ! The nail techs provide Amazing service ! They are accommodating, easy going, and you don’t feel rushed or crammed in the business going to get your nails like in the bigger areas. They take their time and always include you in their conversations. Rayleigh is an amazing nail tech! I always get great service from him no matter how crazy or simple my nail ideas are. With all the nails Techs, you can see and feel how much effort and care they put into their designs and work.

I had called and set an appointment for 2:30 PM when I got there they do not hold my appointment time they made me wait over an hour they were short staffed which I understood but the thing that really made me upset was that the lady was so rude and kept going back-and-forth to the clients getting a pedicure done and then will come to do my acrylic nails and would not wash your hands until I told her something. Whenever you walk in they have a sign that says everything is sanitized but all of their tools were covered in acrylic or nail dust nothing was cleaned they had barberside but no tools were in it When I had called to set my appointment to get SNS on my natural nails they told me it was going to be 35 but when I went to go pay they tried charging me 50.

Wow, I walk there and the owner was really nice. They did an awesome job on my nails. Definitely coming back and will become a client. My nails look so natural and she was careful on the details close to the cuticle. Ask for the owner and you will see how she cares about her clients. Give this place a shot and you won’t regret.

Went to treat myself to a pedicure and it just seemed like the old lady was in a rush i had polish all over the skin of my big toe and on others as well i had to try to remove some with my nail...i was in tears but tried to hold them back ..i asked her if she could redo the big toe cuz it was looking messy and she sat with another lady getting a pedi and handed me off to some other man...( he was nice tho and tried to fix all her mistakes) my toes has a red tint to them wich looked ugly and i guarantee im not coming here no more ...i am so disappointed....update i went in today on june 14th and nina did an amazing job...although owner didnt honor his word of a free pedicure cuz he said i took to long πŸ˜’ it was a better experience this time around

Review β„–11

I came with my grandma and the lady who was giving us pedicures was very rude. I’m 8 months pregnant and she was rough on my swollen feet and she asked if I wanted my nails flat and straight and I did, but my nails came out round. My grandma was waiting 20 minutes next to me and the other worker didnt even paint her nails when they were done. The one who did our pedi didn’t ask me if I liked the nails at all and she painted the base as white when the color I picked was orange. And you can see the white peaking through the sides. it was just very uncomfortable and I wasn’t happy with my nails. I was waiting ten minutes for my feet to dry and she told me I was done and to leave even though there was no one else waiting.

Review β„–21

While the staff was very friendly I’m afraid that’s the only good thing I can say. My bill was 85 for a mani/pedi combo. Which I have no problem paying for good work, however when I tried to tell the nail tech I was unhappy with the uneven look and that a few nails looked like they had already grown out over a wk I was just dismissed and told no no it looks good. Definitely not a satisfied customer. I suppose the search continues for a new nail salon

Review β„–32

This was my first time coming to this place. It’s roomy compared to the places I’ve been. It didn’t smell like a bunch of chemicals either. The place was very clean. I liked how the pedicure area has like a small wall blocking the view of the nail area. It was relaxing to be there. I was offered a glass of wine, which I kindly accepted lol. The lady who did my pedi was perfect. She was so gentle yet was able to get the job done. After that, she started my nails. Her hands are so light. Again, so gentle. She had to pass me to another lady unfortunately. But the lady she sent me too was just as gentle. These two ladies made my day. I will definitely be going back here. I believe I have found my spot πŸ₯°

Review β„–39

Moved to Corpus and needed to find a NEW Nail Salon, before I had my favorite Nail Tech so it was hard trying to find somewhere new and who I could trust. Well let me tell you, if you need a place to go THIS IS IT!!! RayLeigh did a Phenomenal Job! It’s been over two weeks and they have not lifted at all! I’m definitely due for a refill and let me tell you that’s very rare for me to say due to the fact that I had never gotten refills because they’d either fall off, chip, or start to lift. BEST PLACE IN CORPUS!!! πŸ’•

Review β„–42

I’m not too sure if the nail tech was just having a bad day or what, but my nails came out horrible :( from far away, they look good but up close there’s uneven parts of the polish and air bubbles. It was night time when I left so I was unable to see them as good. I noticed they were bad the next morning. This is my second time going and I was very disappointed, they charged me $40 for a refill that was supposed to be regular polish. I mentioned the price to the person but had plans that night so didn’t have time to argue with her when she told me it was $40 when I called before hand and they told me it was $23. I have pictures of my nails, but google isn’t giving me an option to upload them.

Review β„–47

Id been here once before for a pedicure, wax, and facial and was not pleased, but I was desperate for a pedicure and decided to chance it. They are under NEW OWNERSHIP is what I was told because I didnt recognize any of them from last time and I was pleasantly surprised at how careful, detailed, NOT RUSHED, Nina was with my feet. I couldnt help but notice Rayleigh do a MIRACLE on the ladys toe nails next to me. He had to use the shaping stuff to make it look like she had toe nails where she didnt have/missing part of her toe nails. I was fascinated with how careful and detailed he was with her feet/toe nails. The lady he was working on actually fell asleep while he was working on her. Im definitely going back and asking for Nina or Rayleigh! Please make note, this review is for pedicures only. I do not ever let anyone work on my hands anymore because Ive been nicked, hurt, left bleeding one too many times that I dont trust anyone with my hands anymore and I prefer press on nails over ruining my real finger nails any further than theyve been from multiple nail places. I will say that I also couldnt help but notice and hear a lady (other customer) that was very unhappy with the bleeding and hurting on her hands/fingers as she was getting a manicure from one of the other ladies (Not Nina or Rayleigh). I cant speak for the manicures, just letting you know what I saw/heard. Id definitely recommend the pedicures.

Took my wife in for a pedicure, figured I was just going to sit in the lobby, play on my phone and be bored as usual. But, the guy told me come back and sit next to my wife in a messaging chair, offered me a coffee, tea or a water. They did an amazing job on my wife and treated me with respect and kindness as well. Other nail spas have never done that, it was pretty damn cool.

Review β„–65

I was a walk-in with only one other person there. Had my acrylics removed, which I had to specify multiple times to the woman (when she was actually working on me) that I did not want a fill. When it came time for my gel manicure, she filed my nails so hard with the electric drill it was burning and damaging my nails. I had to ask multiple times to have them cut and filed, which was done terribly and all of my nails were uneven. Then, she refused to use the color I wanted (white), and kept pushing me to use some off the wall colors. Im not sure what the issue was with the color I wanted, they had the bottle ready to go. At this point Id been there 2 hours and had enough, so I said I didnt want the manicure and I went to pay for the acrylic removal. Then she said she would paint my nails. Which I refused. My nails are still recovering from the damage, and its been 2 weeks.

Review β„–70

The only reason they get one star is the staff is initially very friendly and helpful. I went for a dipping powder mani but this place used inferior products. In less 36 hours, my nails started to chip. The first time I went back to get my chipped nail fixed, I was told Chin didn’t work that day and to come back tomorrow. The next day was super busy at work and I was dealing with a migraine so I couldn’t handle going into the salon. The following day I went and told they could β€œfix” my nails! My question was how? Your products are inferior and I am going out of town. I should have demanded my money back but had them do another application instead. Total mistake!!! Yesterday, less than a week one of my nails chipped! I wasn’t doing anything crazy with my hands like scrubbing pots and pans or swinging a hammer! I had been the the grocery store and drove home! That’s it... when I noticed my nail was chipped! Do not waste your money at this nail salon!

Review β„–83

I was a walk in customer from out of town and wanted a full set and a pedicure. When it came time for the pedicure I said I wanted the $40 one and the lady kept pointing at the $50 one and so I finally gave it. For a while I was the only one in there and wondered why someone could not have started my nails while my feet were being worked on and thought maybe they don’t do that until I guess a regular came in and I saw that they did. I kept turning off the massage chair and the lady kept turning it back on. Then when I was getting my nails done the lady was very rough and it hurt at times. This was not the relaxing time I had hoped for!

Review β„–90

If i could give a half of a star I would. This place was TERRIBLE. I asked for my cuticles to be cut before they did my nails that way the acrylic would be further back on my nail bed and it would last longer I repeatedly asked. The kept telling me over and over they would do it after my nails. A girlfriend and I went together and wanted to sit next to each other so we could talk. They acted as if it was a huge deal to move her next to me and flat out ignored me the first 3 times I asked then I insisted one of us move so we can sit next to each other. Then when describing what we wanted it was an argument. They insisted we wanted something different then we did and we even showed them pictures. During the process we noticed multiple mistakes on our nails and pointed them out and they ignored us. Didnt matter how many times we repeated ourselves. Keep in mind when we got there there was only one other person there then suddenly multiple people started showing up and the started rushing. To the point where it gave me and my friend anxiety We werent the only ones upset with the service everyone there was irritated. The pedis well lets just say we werent happy spending $50 on what we received. All and all I highly recommend you dont go.and waste your money there. We walked out with a 200.00 bill and we were not pleased.

I love love love this place!!!! I want to keep it to myself so it wont be crowded but I also want them to stick around!! The staff is friendly, and the prices are reasonable. For $45 youll get a mani/ pedi combo. The pedicure includes all the normal stuff but also a sugar scrub, hot stone calf massage, regular calf massage, and a clay mask (Also calf). Just give yourself at least an hour and a half. Its so relaxing.
