Only Nails

I found this place on Unilocal after moving to Austin from Los Angeles about a month ago. The staff was super friendly, the work is fantastic and the atmosphere is very clean, bright, and cheery. I will definitely be going back!

I have been looking for a nail salon near my work and have visited several in the area to no avail. I was glad to finally find «the one» where I was comfortable. The outside looks a little shabby but as soon as you walk in it is open and very welcoming. They have the usual prices and did a really good job on my fill. I was especially impressed with how professional and non pushy they were. Judy did a great job on my nails and made appropriate conversation with me. Tracy was also very pleasant. The two of them run a very nice and pleasant salon. I will definitely go back soon for a pedicure and see how they do with that as well. Such a breath of fresh air to find a place that does good work, nice atmosphere, decent prices, and not at all pushy with their services!!!

I’ve been going to see Tracy & Judy at Only Nails for about 10 years — the place is clean, the girls are friendly, and their pedicure’s are great (I’ve had my polish last over a month). A pedicure will run you $ 25, and includes the whirlpool tub with massage chair, and I really like the exfoliating scrub that they use on your feet and calves.
It’s not fancy — but my experience is been that you can go to a high end salon or spa for a crappy pedicure, or you can go to a no frills place like Only Nails and get a great pedi that lasts. They can also do fun nail art designs if you are in to that kind of thing — flowers, little rhinestones, seasonally/​holiday appropriate designs, etc.
I’ve gotten my brows waxed there a number of times, and they did a good job, at a reasonable price.

Judy and Tracy are the best! I’ve been coming for over 10 years and tell everyone I know to come here. Friendly, professional and they do great work. You do not have to worry about your nails breaking like from other salons. I would drive to austin if I lived out of town to have them work on my hands and feet.

I have been going here for years and never have had any problems. I have gone to a few other places over the years, but I always prefer to come back here. The people are very friendly, professional and caring, prices are reasonable, and the shop seems clean. I know several other people from the neighborhood who also come here regularly.

I’ve been having my fingernails done at only nails for ten years. My two adult daughters also use their services. I have tried other nail salons, and this is the only one I can count on for professional service, quality and especially the look of my nails. I also love the fact that they tend to remember names of all their customers. There is no turnover of nail technicians… I know that whoever does my nails will do a great job!

I have been going here for a few years and have had no problems at all. The ladies are very friendly and the shop seems clean. Only down side is they aren’t open on Sundays, but hey… got to close some time when you are a small business.

DO NOT GO HERE! If I could give it a zero star I would. I went here to get a manicure an pedicure and acquired and infection on both of my big toenails. I have never had any problems with ingrown toenails or any other toe problems. I had pain to my toes for two weeks after the pedicure and just blew it off. Then I found when I pushed on my toe nail that blood and pus just seeped out from under the toenail. When I removed the polish I was dumbfounded at what I saw my toenail was all discolored and my other toe nail was black. In fear that my toenails were going to fall off I went to see a doctor to start antibiotics immediately. At this stage I am hoping the antibiotics work because I was also told that my black toenail may be a fungal infection. In that case I would have to be on an anti fungal regimen for 3 months. Avoid this place like the plague because you don’t know what you’ll get.
