They have 7 nail stations and 8 pedicure chairs with massage. They usually have 4 nail technicians on duty. There are a ton of colors with a large amount available in regular & gel, and some in regular, gel & powder. They will have your tried & true "go-to" in stock as well as most trends. They usually offer complimentary beverages. If they don't, it was simply an oversight...just ask! There is a 5th guy there named John that seems to have his own thing going on. I've never seen him waiting around for customers. He seems to come in for, communicate with, and work on a set schedule of regular clients. If you are one of John's clients, maybe you could write a review detailing what that is all about. I'm usually a short, square, neutral gal, but the owner is happy to embellish me when I get a wild hair for design - think festival or holiday time. Since I'm customarily boring, I always tell her I'm planning design as early as possible so she can schedule appropriately & I don't F Up the remainder of her schedule. She can do aaalllll the things, but if you wait until go-time to request some outrageousness, she may not be able to work it in. They usually get walk ins seated within 5-20 minutes. If they can't get you in , they won't lie to you and have you waiting around for an hour. I have two primary reasons for sticking with a nail salon 1. Quality work. 2. Real people. I never understood people who don't communicate what they expect or say, "whatever you think is best" & then complain when a service isn't what they "expected." Every tech at Lotus has wanted to understand what I want and has worked their best to provide. Every one of them have been uber-nice & respectful to me if I decided on a mid-service change.....they were even nice about a post-service change once, but its probably because that is an extremely rare occurrence for me and I try to be nice & respectful in-kind. Great people. Great work.

I always get tons of compliments on my nails (especially the few times that I've had them do nail art - truly their specialty) and my nails last two-three weeks each time without chipping. The most impressive thing about NXNW is the time they spend making sure your nails look the best they can. Veronica goes above and beyond to make sure everything looks perfect - both of them have an eye for detail, and spend the time to make sure their work is top notch. I recently brought my sister to NXNW when she was in town, and she had the same great experience I did. She received multiple compliments, and when she returned to AZ, her regular nail tech was super impressed. I've even skipped a couple of bridesmaid nail appointments for weddings I was in to get my nails done by NXNW instead. :) I can't say enough positive things about this salon, and I recommend them to anyone who will listen.

Her attention to detail and the time she took made it all worth it because I loved how they came out. The vibe was relaxing as always and we did a little catching up as well. Always worth a visit to someone who believes in natural nails!

I am in town because my mother is in a rehab center after open heart surgery. I googled the closest nail shop around, because my feet were hideous! My mom's been in the hospital since 3/15/12 and I've been in San Antonio practically since then. Since Van's was a shop close by that I knew I'd be able to find my way back from, I went there. I was really happy with their service. They were very thorough with my pedi, offered me a drink, and let me control the massage chair during my pedi so that I got whatever kind of pressure I wanted. I tell you, the awesome pedi, plus massage were exactly what I needed. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for something different from the so-so nail salon. Hat's off to Van's! read more

I have been using Aqua Nails for the premium pedicure for a total relaxation experience. The massage that come with it is exceptional and when I leave I feel rejuvenated. I usually go with my Son for some quality time as well. Michael and Lisa are our usual technicians I have found to also be exceptional caring and take their time which is important to me. The rest of the staff is also very friendly always offering refreshment, and if they don't have it they will run to Starbucks next door to get whatever you would like. read more

I have been a client for a few years now, and I still receive the same treatment now as I did when I first booked my first appointment. The people are soooooo accommodating and your nails will look spectacular when you leave. I encourage you to come by and allow them to pamper you when your time permits.
