LV Nails & Spa

Not a very good experience. The woman who did my manicure was so rough with my cuticles. I actually had to stop and take a moment half was through and ask her to not be so rough with me. I ended up bleeding in two spots. I was having gel removed and there are still bits of gel on 3 or 4 nails which is now peeling off in bits. My nails are actually sore from the woman forcefully scraping the gel off without properly soaking the them first. The pedicure was decent but I will not be going back here again.

I have gone here religiously every 2 – 3 weeks for several years now to get fills and gel manicures. They are always fast and super friendly! I am always greeted with a smile and even when they are busy the wait is never very long. They do a fantastic job and their prices are very reasonable. Love them!

A very pleasant atmosphere, great customer service, outstanding pedicures and just-​right prices. Unfortunately, I got a nail fungus after 6 months of pedicures.

The new ppl rush threw the work. I miss the ppl that used to work there who took there time and they would also let kids in there now they don’t. I never been to a nail place that don’t let kids in.

Walked in for a manicure and pedicure, they sat me after 5min in a pedicure spa and forgot about me for 20 min! I almost left then the guy came over, didn’t say a thing, I didn’t have time for my manicure now… just really disappointed in the customer service after all the good reviews.

Worst experience ever! I am a licensed cosmetologist and did nails for 10 years before I did nail and I can say this is the worst experience ever. When I sat down a girl came in and complained about her french manicure being pink (and they were), they ignored her then made her wait for a long time, then were super rude to her while they fixed it. Then a young teenage girl came in and had her acrylics removed, they were super rude angain then made her wait. Then they drilled her nails off. Poor thing was in pain the whole time. I told her to say something and when she did they just smiled and kept drilling.
My nail came out like crap, fat, bulky and uneven, and not at all shaped the way I wanted (coffin shape as they called it). I asked for a gel nail set and they gave me acrylics with a gel top coat :/​it was 45 $ instead of 35. Then they had the nerve to ask for his tip in cash!

I got gel nails, only for my second time, and thought they were fine. My first time (out of town) they looked wonderful for over 3 weeks. This time, these began to chip during the second week. I went back to try another time, but was VERY disappointed. The gel/​polish started to chip on the 4^th day and by the end of the first week, big pieces were peeling off. The technician told me AFTER she’d finished that she didn’t like the consistency of the product… too late! I guess I should’ve gone back and asked them to re-​do the nails, but I didn’t want to spend the time. I’ll be trying another salon.

They are friendly, fast, and they do an amazing job. I’ve had a pedicure which was not the best I’ve ever had, but top 5 for sure!
I cannot say enough about their gel manicures and waxing. I’ve had the best gel manicures and waxing EVER here. Angela pays such close attention to detail — triple coating both my nails and the tips of my gel manicure because of the dark color. Nearly 2 weeks later and my tips still look perfect.
I wish I knew his name name (yikes) but the guy is the only person I trust to wax my eyebrows. I drive across town for him!

I went in today for a quick repair to one gel nail that was done 3 days ago. I was greeted by two very unconcerned and rude employees. The nail was fixed with the wrong color polish and I was blamed for having caused the damage. I won’t be back or recommend the salon to others. Employees are rude and unprofessional.

I have been getting my nails done here since I moved to Austin almost 6 years ago. They really do a fantastic job for the price, and they are super friendly. The deluxe pedicure is the best! They added a hot stone massage to it which must be fairly recent. Good polish selection with all the brand names (Essie, butter, and OPI mainly). I also get my eyebrows done here, and they always look great.

Everyone who works here is super nice, and they do a great, careful job. I come here to get my acrylics filled. A lot of places will rip up your cuticles or do a patchy job polishing the edges of the nail, but everyone at LV is super careful and attentive, while still being pretty quick about the whole process as well. There’s also a great color selection here, but you can bring your own if you’d like. I’ve had my eyebrows waxed and gotten a pedi here before too, and no complaints. LV seems to be a touch more expensive than most similar nail places in town (at least when it comes to acrylics and waxing) but the extra few dollars is worth it. I’ve never left here disappointed.
ALSO: bring cash to tip with, since they don’t allow you to tip on a card. And you should absolutely be tipping them!

I appreciate the value and even more, I appreciate the kindness and professionalism of the staff.
I’m attentive to my nails. My line of work requires a lot of hand-​motor skills, and I tend to look at my hands a lot. I’m good at painting 15 of my own nails, but horrible with the blasted 5 nails of my right hand.
The 4 stars goes to their customer service, and the potential that I believe they have. The staff is courteous, non-​pretentious, and most importantly for those of you fearful of your friendly mail technician soaking smack about you, I can guarantee you they are professional. They are a lovely bunch, and I will return again. Hopefully I won’t choose a bad bottle of nail polish then.
Also, good attempt with the sterilization bag. I can tell the difference between something that had been thru the autoclave, versus something that had probably been wiped clean and packaged in a bag. An important distinction, but points effort.

so this was the first place i got my nails done since moving to Austin. The prices were average, like the majority of other places I checked. I got a shelac manicure in light blue. the color that I told the man I wanted they were out of, so instead of telling me this he pulled another random color that he felt was closest to my original selection. needless to say I noticed after he had applied the color to a few nails and really was not happy but did not have time to start the shelac process over. He also put 3 coats on and i think this attributed to my nails chipping within the first week when usually my shelac last 2 weeks or longer.
I will not be going back.

Everyone here is super nice. They do a great mani and pedi and I can usually walk in and be seen. My only complaint is that the massage is not great. If I’m getting a de-​stress pedi I’d expect a nice deep foot massage. It’s not just one person or this place. I can’t seem to find a place where the massage rocks my world. I will continue to come here, though.

I appreciate the friendly greeting and atmosphere here. It is a strip center nail salon but a little roomier and nicer. They offer facials and waxing as well. The staff has been familiar for the past 3 years that I’ve been coming here for pedicures.

I lived in Austin for 4 years and only found this place for the last 2. I LOVED IT. They did such a great job, paid great attention to detail, and were so friendly. And it’s by far and away the best value for a shellac mani and regular pedi in the Austin area. I went there with all of my bridesmaids for my wedding (even though it’s definitely not fancy or ritzy), but they just do such a great job and the price is unbeatable. Sad to have moved away, I miss my LV Nails!

I had a TERRIBLE experience at this nail salon. I took my mom on mothers day and expected there to be a wait. However, they rushed me over to a pedi area where I waited about 20 minutes before someone spoke to me again. The place was not clean, and they did nothing to sanitize the pedi tubs area. They were frantic with the amount of business on this day, and it was clear to see they were struggling.
I went in planning on getting a mani/​pedi. As I said, they rushed my mom and myself over to the pedi area where there were lots of people. Someone started helping my mom about 10 minutes in, and then someone eventually got to me about 15 minutes later. The women who painted my nails was friendly, but was clearly not paying attention to my nails. She was not painting the entire toe, and was getting it on my skin. I have short toe nails, so I’m very aware that they will get pain on my skin regularly, however most of the time the technician will get it off. Not only did this woman get up in the middle of my pedi to go do a 15 minute wax, but she tried to send me out of the salon with half of a nail painted. I examined my nails and showed her all the paint on my skin, and the missing paint on my nail. She apologized and corrected it, of course as fast as she could. While this was happening, a little boy broke some glass, and for about 20 solid minutes, this child was playing with broken glass. As upset as I was with the parents, I was confused and stressed out as to why NOT ONE of the technicians or someone working there tried anything to clean up the mess. I was there for well over an hour and ended up just leaving as soon as my pedicure was done. I will not be going back.

First time, great job on the acrylics! I had Hannah, who worked quickly but still made sure to cover all the bases. Not absolutely perfect, but pretty darn close. I had color acrylic tips with pink fill and clear gel overlay. The shape of both the tips and the nails were good, the salon was clean and pretty, and not too busy on a Wednesday afternoon. Not too thick or bulky, took care when I told her I had sensitive nails and cuticles, and redid the gel on several nails when tiny bubbles showed up. And all for less than $ 40, very reasonable. I would go back!

First time here, and I love it! I got a gel manicure and Kathy did a amazing job! She took her time and paid close attention to details and took the polish all the way to the side which is a big pet-​peeve/​ocd! Love, love, love!!! I will be back, and already have my next color picked out! Highly recommended! Great price, very friendly staff!

Nice clean place. I’ve had only pedis here, and I now consider it my local nail place. Not great, as far as I could tell, for nail art or anything fancy, but they do a good, thorough job on pedis, manis, and gel, and the price is right. Everyone’s friendly, and I’ve never had an appointment, but never had any issue being seen quickly.
Tools are sterilized and unwrapped in front of you, and they give you your pumice, file, and buff at the end, because they only use them on one customer. Cleanliness rules, and added bonus, I can keep up my pedi at home using my pumice!
