This place is an amazing hidden gem in San Marcos. So attentive so professional! I have found my new nail and pedicure salon after many different places not living up to standards...
Best place in San Marcos to get a pedicure or nails done.Ask for Peter (nail technician)Mimi (best pedicure ever!)
Great place and relaxing they have plexiglass glass for nail and pedicures
They did a great job on my pedicure. I got right in.
I love this nail salon! I always get what I ask for and they are very friendly. I love the color choices they have in dip powder. Overall great place!
I have been going here for over 10 years. They are great. All about customer service. Foittubs cleaned rhroughly.
I’ve been going here regularly for years. My favorite nail salon yet! Great work and lovely owners. They care so much about their customers and make me feel so welcome. Go here!
I have been searching for a good Nail Salon in San Marcos for 3 years now & I had considered it a lost cause. I happened to be grabbing dog food next door at Pet Smart & glanced over & noticed them & had time to kill so I decided to give them a try. I am SOLD! I originally got a full set & was pretty impressed but I never make a full decision if I love a nail place until they grow out a bit & they held up so well. I got another refill & I am even more in love! I will not be going anywhere new for a very long time.
I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Walked in to get two pedicures and a get my 6 year old nieces toes and nails painted and they were not busy there was people already about to be finished and then just us. We sat down and pick out colors. They Never offered to draw the water so we can sit in soak, he stared at my niece like she was going to break something when she was sitting watching my phone. Then finally after thirty minutes of waiting, he finally called us back and at this time we were on a time crunch so we said to just paint my nieces nails and toes and the guy said no not unless me or my sister gets our toes done. When we said we can’t he continued to say no it’s not worth the $10. do not recommend this place to anyone.
I was faithfully coming here with a girl friend for over a year. We were always treated well, but I would go more consistently on my own. I stopped going when I saw the service decline, and the lady cut my foot once during a pedicure. I also contracted toe nail fungus from this place. I only trusted one of the sisters to do my eyebrows. Everyone else would do them unevenly. I wish I could write a more positive review but find somewhere else more sanitary.
If I could give this place no star, I would. My roommate told me to try this place out, as I have never gotten my nails done here in San Marcos. They greeted me when I walked in but were short staffed, so, I had to wait. Once I finally sat down I chose a color, the older lady (maybe the owner) did my nails. She seemed very sweet as she helped me chose a color. I asked her if the color was opaque (she assured me no). She finished my nails and I was not happy. They were poorly done and they were in fact opaque. I called right after I got home and noticed how bad they were. The man who answered the phone was super nice and told me to come back as he did not want an unhappy customer. I came back with my roommate the next week. The older lady seemed confused on why I was back. I showed her how bad they looked and she said it was MY fault they looked bad because I picked that particular color. Number one, never blame the customer. It was not my fault they were peeling up two days after I got them done and the color was inconsistent throughout. She then proceeded to yell at my roommate about the color she chose. We both got up and walked out and will not be returning. THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE, GO ELSEWHERE.
Always polite, great service and clean shop. They are stuck with me!
Called for an appointment was told I didnt need one. Arrived after work and asked to use the rest room, told someone was in their. Was approached by three women from the back, stated I wanted to have my gels removed, no manicure. Stated I needed to use the restroom first. Came out a few minutes later to an angry and rude woman who told me they were closing and could not help me. She went on to say I did not listen and used the restroom so now I could leave. I merely asked to use their restroom that was not in use. I have never experienced such rudeness and belittlement. Kindness goes a long way in any service industry, I hope you will eventually learn this.
Love this place.every time Im in town I go there
The worst salon I have ever been to! My nails had grown out so I told him I wanted them a little shorter and asked if that would happen when they filed them...it had only been two weeks since I had them done last so I didnt need them much shorter...explained that I wanted square with rounded edges and preferred a more natural look. Well....they look awful. A complete waste of $32 and when I complained, they said I asked for them shorter. Yes. I did.....but that doesnt mean I wanted some of them so short that you can see the top of my finger! Four of them are so short, if I put my hand down.....you see the tips of my finger. They did a terrible job at the shape...the are almost totally flat across. They left my hands a mess, they offered no customer service and they blamed me. The older man was doing my nails....although the picture on the license wasnt him...and some lady decided to get up and offer her opinion on blaming me even though she wasnt the one doing my nails. The place is a mess....had I not been in such a time crunch, I would have found another place.....and it took 90 minutes for a screwed up pink and white fill!
Poor service. They only have one person doing powder nails. One person doing shellac, and one person doing mani, pedis. After waiting for 15 minutes I noticed one worker was free so I asked if she could help me and she just said, I dont do powder only he does and rolled her eyes. Ive been here since 512pm and it is now 603. I still havent been helped. So Im leaving. I also witnessed two girls walk in at 6 and were asked what they wanted but then were told theres not enough time to do their nails since they close at 7. Never coming back here.
Been going here for years. Love it.
I go here all the time! They do amazing long pedicures! The manicures can be rushed, but always look great. I will continue to use them.
I got a pedicure here this morning and it was wonderful. The lady took her time and it was so nice and relaxing. I will definitely be back!
Horrible experience. The woman kept hitting my hands when she wanted me to turn or move them instead of talking. I understand English was not her first language but slapping your customers hands over and over instead of learning a few key words that will benefit you in your profession would help. She rolled her eyes when I asked her to straighten up my nails and make them all even. The rest of the employees there spoke English and could have helped her when trying to communicate with me but instead they were watching tv and laughing. When I went to leave a woman came in and wanted almond shaped nails, they had no idea what she was talking about so I had to look it up for them.
I hadnt had a pedicure in a very long time and my feet were in terrible shape. The man who did my pedicure was awesome and worked very hard! I am very satisfied with the service and the cost!
Friendly, personable, thorough and quality nail care. Occasionally, usually when Im traveling and cant get to BP on my regular interval, Ill pop into another place, but it almost always disappoints compared to the service I get at BP. Wont go anywhere else in San Marcos.
Every time Ive gone, theyve done an amazing job so nice and friendly! The prices are good too!:)
I have been following Peter from the first location near Pet Smart. One day I walked in and it was under new management!!! I walked straight out. I recently found out Peter, Mimi,phong and Layla moved to this location... I was sooo happy!!! They are the best!! Peters nail work is impeccable!! The rest of the ladies are definitely the ones to get your eyebrows on FLEEK!!!! Please go by and ck them out!!! It will be worth the wait and it has a Barber Shop atmosphere.. Every one talking and I promise you they will always remember your name... Its nice to walk in and they all say... Hi Tanya! makes me smile every time.
This nail salon is small, but its a hidden gem. They are super nice and have faithful customers who they greet by name.
Best nail salon love the techs there
There supposed to open up at 10am didnt open up until 10:30, not good. Very unprofessional especially being there before the employees. The woman who did my eyebrows wasnt very friendly and i was told AFTER she did my eyebrows that she couldnt do thin eyebrows... uhm, you probably should of told me before you even touched them. I disliked the way they came out. Went somewhere else to get them fixed up. Find somewhere better.
I went in for a mani and pedi. The lady that did my nails was extremely rough. She cut me 2 different times and said my bad. It seemed like she was in a rush even when it was slow. My toe hurts from where she cut my skin. She did not use a new set of clean tools when she started with my pedicure. It was the same set from the girl before me. The place was very dusty and seemed dirty. I will not go back.
Unfortunately, the manager is not professional. My friend and I came here for two pedis. My friend asked about possibly getting manicure and the manager for no reason was giving us attitude about doing it, her response was, if we have time for her. Then as we were getting our pedi my friend ask ME a question and the manager quickly jumped in and said, we will see, we will see! . It was unprofessional, unclassy, and disrespectful attmoshphere!
I went to Peter he did an amazing job. I love my nails !! I will be going back for sure!!
There is only one lady that waxs eyebrows good. Other than her Ive had horrible experiences with other ladies leaving lines of eyebrow hair from thining and arching them more than necessary.
They are the best! Everyone is really nice too!
I walked into this place on my lunch break. All I wanted was a manicure, with the white tips.I was greeted immediately, which is cool, and asked what I wanted. I said Oh just a mani. The little asain man, peter, asked if it was going to be on my real nail. I concurred.He told me to pick a color, and sit down. I sat down without a color, obviously because all i wanted was the white tips. I specifically told him this when he said down in front of me. He took one look at my nails and said oh. no. too short. cannot do anything with these. uhm...excuse me? -and btw, they are all active length, and two are short because im growing my nails out and they were flimsy so i cut them- I told him oh no. im sure its fineOver and over and over, he kept telling me that he cannot do the white tips. I told him over and over to just do what I want. Finally he did them and repeatedly told me that they will chip soon. IDGAF. Do my nails!!!!!!!!After about the 15th time of him telling me this, i told him ok. seriously. if you dont want to do them, then i will gladly take my business elsewhere. he shut up after that.anyways. he asked if i wanted to pay before i got my nails done (smart) so i said sure! I tipped him 5 dollars. bad mistake.my nails looked horrible afterwards. i shouldnt have tipped him anything!!i told him to round them off, which he did, and now they look like pointed tiger claws. NOT WHAT I WANTED. and some of them are slanted because he didnt file them correctly. the paint looks good, I will give him that. but the file looks terribly.When i went to go under the black light to dry them, i noticed how much friggin nail polish he got all over my hands. unacceptable. YOU HAVE ONE JOB. DO IT RIGHT.While drying my nails, i was scoping the place out. They are apparently a hair cutting place...i wouldnt trust them. The sink where they wash the hair was FILTHY. So disgusting.basically, i will never go back to this place. i will be taking my business elsewhere.
Terrific place for manis, pedis, and waxes. Everyone is very nice.
Young daughter and I went in on a Sunday for a pedicure and we had a wonderful experience.
