Kimmy Nail & Spa

First time here, more than impressed. Very nice lady did my nails, took her time, made sure I was satisfied, very affordable speaking from past experiences. Salon was very clean, will definitely be coming back here. I believe her name was Tracy, will definitely be asking for her again.

Kimmy Nail & Spa is the best! They offer great services with a smile! Plus it is close to home!

Awesome job Kim! Love my nails! I am now in the Christmas mood… with my lovely nails. That was my first time there and I was very excited after she completed my nails. I would definitely recommend this nail salon to anyone.

I treated my mom and myself to the green tea pedicure last week. Everyone was very kind and we were received right away. I had been needing a pedicure for some time so I was eager to get started. Everything was going alright up until she got the cuticle nippers out, which weren’t prepackaged, my mistake for letting her continue. She proceeded to dig far too deep into the side of my left big toe. At the time I was thinking, oh it’ll just be a little red tomorrow. Well, «a little red» has now turned into swollen and purple with puss leaking out of it. Unfortunately, that clearly means the implement was dirty. Therefore the low rating and the report I’ll be sending to TDLR.
It’s not hard to clean your tools.

Just moved to Vegas and can’t seem to find any place like Kimmy’s! I miss them! I had to drop in there for a manicure when I was last in town and will have to do so every time I get to go back.
Don’t listen to the bad reviews especially from people that only have a few reviews behind their name. It doesn’t seem fair that people can write bad reviews on Unilocal and effect a hard working business when they have no experience with reviews. I honestly don’t know why they give this place bad reviews. Is it because they had to wait? Well, guess what? It’s a great place and the word is spreading. If you come when everyone else has decided to come can you really get mad? Everyone wants great nails and sometimes you have to wait for great service. Just like a great restaurant. The best restaurants have a line out the door because guess what? You’re not the only one that wants that product. Don’t want to wait? Go elsewhere and don’t leave bad reviews. Trust me, I’ve been to so many nail salons in San Antonio before I found Kimmy’s and I tell all my friends about them. They’re the best. Super friendly, thorough and do a great job!

Very disappointed. I have been her several times a few years ago before I went to college s few years ago and they were great. Today I went to get a fill because I didn’t feel like driving all the way out by my job where I normally go and it was terrible. They cut my fingers 6 times and the lady asked «do you feel pain?» Uh yea! It freaking hurt! Also the lady put too many coats of paint on my nails and it bubbled so it ended up coming off within a few hours and I had to repaint my nails myself. I will not be going back and instead will drive the extra distance and pay more for a fill at the place that I usually go to.

I arrived at 11:36am on a Sunday and the first thing that was told to me was that they don’t open until 12pm. I mentioned that sources show that they open at 11:30am. She said «I don’t know what they do that.» Do what? How do you not know what information is listed about your store. And… there are a group of ladies that where getting their toes done. Discrimination? Horrible first time here.

I went in for a fill (I had gotten a full set 3 weeks prior at a different nail salon). First of all the wait was about 45 mins when I could clearly see there were nail technicians that were just laughing back and forth with one another not attending any customers. I didn’t want to be rude so I patiently waited. I finally got impatient and asked them how much longer it would be until they saw me. They then told me to sit down and I told him I wanted a fill on my french tip sets. He did a very poor job since there was a gap between the acrylic nails and polish that was very visible from a distance. I pointed it out to the nail technician and he then went and told a lady technician in which I tried explaining it to both of them and they both started laughing as if I was crazy for asking them to do the fill properly. They were trying to play it off as if I was complaining to get out of paying for the fill, which clearly wasn’t the case because I paid them to demonstrate that it wasn’t that I was trying to avoid paying for the fill, but that they really did an extremely poor job and were rude when I respectfully asked them to fix it.
Needless to say, I wouldn’t go back if someone paid me to.
0 stars.

Came here today to get a full face wax, and Robin was absolutely the best! I told her that I was trying to grow out my eyebrows and just wanted a clean up. Well, she actually LISTENED, and they look great! I’m still trying to recover from the hatch job that another salon did. The price was great too; $ 25 bucks for full face wax. That’s a steal. Great service, just wish they had like an ambient sound machine in the wax room. To much to ask? Probably so, but it would help the awkwardness.

I’ve been coming here for 4 years and it’s my favorite salon. Dont get me wrong ive gone to probably 10 other salons to try them out but i always find myself comparing to kimmys and coming right back. The staff is so sweet and the place is always clean. The prices are also very resonable. I go in every 3 weeks and they always remember faces and names. I highly recommend this place :)

Excellent service, friendly staff, and a relaxing atmosphere. Tracy is AMAZING! I highly recommend getting a manicure with her! She takes her time and makes sure you are 100% satisfied with your nails. I come here once a month for a manicure and always leave happy. I’m pretty indecisive when it comes to choosing a color for my nails but they are always so patient with me. I’ve tried a few other nail salons when I venture out of my area, but I always come back. They are great!

I’ve been here a few times because it’s around the corner from my house. Experiences in the past were ok. They were nice, but my toes always chip quickly when I leave there. Then, I had a shellac manicure this past Sunday. By today (Thursday) three nails had peeled off! (One peeled off on Monday.) When I returned today, they offered to redo the three nails that had peeled but no to redo the whole manicure. I expressed concern that all of the polish would peel off – the nail that peeled off yesterday felt fine the day before. But she still wouldn’t do it. I won’t be going back. I’d rather drive a couple of miles than waste time and money like that.

You know… it’s not cheap, and I have had a better pedi — but all in all the experience was a positive one. When the girl first began working on my feet, all I could think was «wow, I come back from Vegas with the worst feet ever and I get the Joel Osteen of pedicurists.» Some of you will get that. Just wait for it.
But then, she saw the demise of my piggies and cracked heels and, though she spoke no English, she was able to ooh and ahh with sympathy and set to work on me… for real, for real. *Note here* The massaging chairs here, came from the Adult Megaplex or something — just so you know, you can turn that feature off, and OUCH!!*
Another nice thing, she took one look at the polish I chose and just shook her head, it was in bad shape. And then she gave me an even better suggestion! I got cotton candy toes, with iridescent sparkle and I LOVE the look!
TIP: Watch out for the «d*ldo» chair.

I love to get my nails done at this place. I am unable to go as often as I’d like because I live in different places due to being married to a sailor haha But we’re both from San Antonio, and our families live off Babcock near the Kimmy Nail & Spa.
I would definitely recommend this place to get a mani/​pedi. I was just there on Sunday, and I got the $ 40 lavender sugar scrub pedicure. OMG it was heavenly! It smelled amazing, and I loved the way the sugar scrub felt. My feet felt so soft and I loved how nice and neat my nail polish was applied. I’m planning to return to get a manicure before our short visit is over. Everyone is friendly and helpful, and the lady who did my pedicure put my sandals on for me :)

I was immediately greeted, asked what I needed, picked a color and put in a chair for a pedicure. There were tons of people getting manicures but I was the only one getting a pedicure at the time so they gave me control of the TV remote which I thought was nice. They gave me a bottle of water and I had to wait about 10 minutes for someone to come start my pedi but I didn’t mind cause just having my feet soaking is relaxing to me. They could have made the water a little warmer but no biggie.
The lady that did my pedicure did a good job but was too soft scrubbing my feet and the during the massage. Other than that, I loved every moment of my mani pedi. Reasonable prices
Pedi $ 25
Mani $ 15

So it was 7:00pm and we asked them if we could schedule an appointment for 8:00pm because on Unilocal it shows they close at 8:30. They told us they would take us even though they closed at 8:00pm. Everything was going perfect, the massage seats were awesome it was a good environment. The only bad part was Linda (the manager) she was awfully rude to my sister and I. We had never had someone be so rude to us at a nail salon. Especially when she told us we had to pay up front, before she had even started doing our nails. She also charged us a large amount. Then it got to the designs. We asked for shilac nails and she used a regular nail polish to do the design and was messed up. Then I asked her if she can at least make 3 circles and she couldn’t even do that. I will never come back here again! I have to re do my nails some place else because she really messed them up.

I highly recommend this place! Great customer and salon service for a reasonable price. :) I paid $ 60 for a solar full set and pedicure… Which they did at the same time! I was out in an hour and satisfied! I enjoyed being there with funny people who were easy to talk to and left with wonderful nails. I was skeptical at first because I am really picky. My usual salon was closed so I tried Kimmy’s and I’m happy I did. :) 5 stars NO DOUBT!

I did a «yelp search» for nails salons around work, because my feet were in dire need of attention after a long week at work and an overdue pedicure. I arrived and was immediately greeted at the reception desk. I asked if they were able to do a pedicure and would understand if not because it was about an hour before closing. It was no problem, picked my color and sat down. They offer you something to drink and they have the massage chairs, plus chairs for the kids. I have never seen that, so nice. There were two kids getting pedicures.
My pedicure was nice, massage the best. I felt so relaxed afterwards. The staff is genuinely friendly, and funny.

My first time here and I Loved it! I got a mani/​pedi and will totally go back again. Very professional. Julie took excellent care of me. I even lucked out with it being a few days before Christmas and as I was checking out she gave me a gift bag… With a large package of instant Vietnamese Coffee, which is actually pretty decent.

Let me first start off by saying that this place definitely does not deserve a 2.5 star rating.
My mom and I were on the hunt to find a new nail salon because our old one had definitely gone down hill. My mom lives nearby (Prue/​Babock area) so we were constantly passing this place and wanted to give it a try. I have to say I was quite hesitant because of the bad reviews, but Arren W’s review gave me hope! I stopped by the day before we wanted our mani/​pedi to make appointments for the following day. It was crazy busy when I stopped by, so I was happy we had made an appointment. The man who helped me was really welcoming and helpful. And I wasn’t waiting at the door for any amount of time before being helped despite how busy they were.
The next day we stopped by for our mani/​pedi and picked out the color we wanted for our nails. There were some people who came in before us for pedicures but we were seen first since we had an appointment, I’m sure they were mad — but what can you do. Either way — it’s always BEST to have an appointment, so make one!
We were waiting maybe five minutes (we were early anyways) because all of the pedicure seats were taken. We were immediately sat and taken care of because of our appointments. The people were really friendly. The guy working on my feet was hilarious, a total blast. Also — we were offered a drink; water, soda, or wine! My mom chose the wine and so they went back and got her a nice chilled wine glass and filled it with white wine. She was for sure in HEAVEN!
After we were done with our manicure and pedicure, we sat for about 15 minutes and «relaxed» as the nail technician advised. I also got my eyebrows waxed and was completely in awe of how friendly everyone was. Also — I was chatting to a lady next to me and she was a return customer, she was telling me how nice it was there and how it’s a real treat to get away and how accommodating everyone is. Plus we saw a few other people go through who were return customers, so you can tell it’s obviously a good place. Also, they had mini pedicure seats for little girls — which was quite possibly the cutest thing ever. Watching two 8-​year olds get pedicures was the cutest thing!
$ 40 for deluxe pedicure, $ 12 for regular manicure and $ 10 for eyebrow waxing. Price is pretty average for most nail salons around this area. Overall, I will definitely be back here and am really excited to go back!
