Went here for the first time and was surprised by how efficient and how professional the nails looked. I got a regular manicure, which was $20, and the nail polish looks very shiny-similar to gel! If you don't want to mess up your nails, you can pay before you finish the manicure. The lady who painted my nails didn't speak much, but she was very nice and gave a great arm massage. I would come here again! read more

Friendly service & they did a good job with my eyebrow waxing. It's also it's a busy location but plenty of parking. The staff were friendly. read more

I have been coming to Arboretum Nails and Spa for over 15 years. Even though I moved I still drive 30 minutes for a pedicure. I have sadly wasted my money elsewhere. Hands down the best pedicure and nail service you will find. Keep in mind, you will potentially have a wait. They are fabulous at what they do and are quite busy. The ladies are always gracious and friendly so be NICE because it is worth the wait!!! read more

This salon is 3 minutes from my place and I am happy to have found it. While they are very busy, they have lots of people working and they are very efficient. All the tools are cleaned or disposable, the staff is friendly and I am VERY satisfied! read more

When I first moved back to Austin, my home town, I needed to get some self care and these ladies are the best! Initially I was only getting the pedicures-and they take really good care of my feet! Then I started getting the dip nails and I LOCE THEM! The ladies are all so sweet and funny! My mother turned me on to these ladies and I CONSTANTLY get compliments on my nails! I make a point to make sure I get my regular self care and these ladies BRING IT! read more

Been here a few times since moving here. I had a pedicure by Hannah and it was excellent. She gently removed an ingrown toenail and gave the best massage. Very friendly. Also had dip nails and lasted over 3 weeks. Perfect shape! read more

I just love this place. All the technicians are so wonderful and make you feel comfortable. read more

I've struggled for a long time with picking at my nails. Over the last couple of years I've gotten much better with it. But not perfect. I read how many people solve their problem by getting some false nails applied. I thought Id try this. I walked in here and asked for their help. She literally sneered at me and laughed. I'm trying to do some thing better for myself. The last thing I need is for someone to ridicule me about it. Maybe they do a great job on nails, maybe not. I can do without the judgment. read more

I've been coming here for years. Can't believe I'm just now reviewing them. Cameron is my go to. If not her, than Lynn. But Cameron gave me the perfect almond shape and help me find my new nail shape forever! She's flawless and her nails always turn out perfect. Nothing crooked. No blotchy paint. Nothing is ever uneven. She's perfect! read more

I've been going here for 10+ years. Everyone is so nice and talented! You can call for an apt or walk-in.

I went on a Saturday for a pedicure, they were busy but I got seated quick, which I thought was nice. The woman filled up the tub with water and then left, nowhere to be found. I sat there for about 30 minutes, water now cold, before someone finally came to do my service. And when she did, she wouldn't stop talking about how I had clipped my nails crooked, how my toes were gross because some of my spray tan seeped onto my nail bed, all while trying to upsell me on a manicure at the same time! Not to mention, her cuticle work HURT and left my toes red even still as I'm typing this, almost 12 hours later. I also noticed they offer drinks, but apparently don't offer them like that, because nobody in this busy place had one. I was offered one (I assume because of the long wait) but I honestly thought they didn't serve any because literally no one else had one. I've been to many spas and I always see 90% of people with a drink. I just thought that was weird. On the bright side, I don't know what kind of wine they had, but I got a nice buzz, kind of unusual for me after just 1. Idk, maybe the lady slipped something in it so I wouldn't notice the horrible service they were providing. I won't be returning. read more

I have been coming to Arboretum Nails Spa for years for manicures, pedicures, and eyebrow maintenance. Tammy is great at all three - her dip nails are AMAZING. Highly recommend, tell her Jen sent you! read more

Prior to coming, I called and asked if they had availability for 2 pedicures and 1 dip manicure and I was told they had availability. Once I arrived, we were sat in the chairs and they began to run the water. As we sat there for almost 1 hour before someone came to start our nails, the water overflowed out of the bowl. We asked them multiple times when someone would come to start our nails and the response was short and rude and "5 minutes just wait okay". We were then told they were short staffed which is not their fault but a smart business would tell someone that before sitting them down. I didn't end up getting a pedicure or a manicure as someone came to start my toes after I was there for an hour. My girlfriend got a pedicure but a bad one. I got a gel polish change and was charged $35 just for that. When we told them how long we were there and explained the situation, the workers were extremely rude and were talking extremely loud. I would never go to this place ever again. Horrible customer service. read more

Don't go. Unless you want disparaging comments made about you, to be overcharged, and be there for over two hours. So first I call to see it there's a wait, I am assured there is not only to go and wait for twenty minutes for someone to begin working on my nails. Then I am ridiculed because I ask for my index and middle figure to be slightly shorter since I wear contacts. She tells me she won't do french because the white will look bad so I change my color to a light pink. Two hours later. Yes TWO HOURS LATER-she is finishing. My thumb dip powder is lumpy and thick, but at this point I just want to get the heck out of there. By the way, she has told me I look tired x5 and asked if I was in high school. I'm 28. I just want to pay my $50 (yes $50) and leave. So she puts the top coat on and tells me to wait 5 minutes and I am determined to not mess up my nails so I can go home. One minute later, she comes by and touches my nails-completely freaking ruining them. I ask her if she can do shellac so they won't get messed up. She says no and that shellac will take longer. I tell her I know shellac takes literally 60 seconds and won't get messed up. She insists that we do it her way so I'm like ok whatever. She puts her top coat on. Comes back another minute later AND MESSES THEM UP AGAIN BY TOUCHING THEM. By this time I am the only person in the salon. I got there at 6:15 and it's now 8:20. Finally she concedes and does the top coat in shellac. Definitely go to this place if you want to spend a ton of money, be criticized by your manicurist, and be there for over two hours. read more

I have been a customer here for a few years now and I'll admit, I stray from time to time in hopes of finding a nail salon closer to home. But I always come back to this place. The quality of the work and the time the ladies put into you is great! I love their manicures and their prices. I'm always a walk in - they usually get me in rather quickly and take their time to insure I am pleased with my hands and nails before I leave. I would highly recommend Arboretum Nail & Spa! read more

I enjoy coming here for an hour of relaxation while I get my nails done. I'm told the dip manicure by Kayley (sp?) It's excellent, strong but thin, however I haven't tried that here yet. Jen does an amazing, very detailed job on pedicures and plain old manicures. I appreciate the good air filtration here (hate thinking that nail techs are sacrificing their own health to do my nails) and I'll definitely continue coming here. read more

I love the color but that's about it. The shape was wonky and very flat on the top. Wouldn't recommend if you prefer claw curved nails and not flat ones or want a difficult shape of nail. The overall experience was loud and a bit chaotic, costumer service was a bit poor and the prices have varied every time i've gon. read more

Gel nails, done! I was greeted and seated right away, even though they were crazy busy and about to close (Easter weekend). The ladies working there make you feel as though you're their top priority, and they assist and communicate well with one another, ensuring that each patron is catered to. Wonderful customer service; they even knew and greeted their customers by name as they walked in. Jen did my nails and she was fabulous. She was friendly and checked in with me each step of the process, to ensure my nails were up to my standards. I was in and out, and left a satisfied customer. Awesome job ladies! read more

I visited this salon for the first time today and LOVED it! They greeted me quickly, got me sat in a massage chair, soaked my feet while I waited, and my nails look beautiful. I got a gel manicure and deluxe pedicure. Deluxe includes a scrub massage, lotion massage, hot towel, and hot rock massage. Worth every penny. I will be back! Both technicians were very professional. read more

I literally just left so frustrated. Took two hours. The lady was rude and cut my finger. Then goes "ugh no tip?" When she changed the price of my nails twice. Her chair was right to the right of the register. I got no design, shelac and paid $55 for these crooked blotchy nails. Worst service I've ever had. Can't go back to fix them because it's obvious no one really cares who works there. Thank u next. read more

Arboretum Nails and Spa - The ugliest set - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

Lowest possible rating. Worst pedicure I have ever had in the last 10-15 years. You wouldn't get your dead skin removed or cuticles done...unless you are ready to shell out $50 or $60. They want you to to add and upgrade services and give you a horrible service if you want a regular pedicure. Treat you like shit and are rude too read more

I have been using this salon for over 10 yr. It is a waste of money and time to go anywhere else. Must try!

This place is amazing, the staff takes care of you , the most thorough pedicure I've ever had. Best eyebrow wax, shoulder massage. Only my second visit here - I can't say enough ! :) read more

Pedicure was alright.... I went with a friend, and they absolutely ignored her for 15-20 minutes and then proceeded to start in someone else. The staff was very catty and was obviously talking about us the entire time making very obvious gestures and faces. read more

My experience was not great. I called ahead to tell them that I would be there in 30 minutes and gave my name. I told them that my four year old would be with me. They said they could accommodate us. We show up on time, and we still had to wait... which was fine for a little while, but it turned into at least 15-20 minutes. The water got cold on our feet, and I had to ask for a pillow for my daughter as she was about to fall into the foot sink. I have worked in the service industry before, so I always try to be polite whenever possible. The woman who did my daughter's nails was nice. I bought in on the upselling for the upgrade for the pedicure as that nail technician was very nice as well. The manicure technician seemed polite at first, and I agreed to the upgraded hot wax treatment which comes with a half of a neck massage. After my hands were done, I asked her to do a "skull" design on my ring finger... as I'm a punk rock chick, and I wanted one. I showed her a picture of exactly what I wanted. She made jokes and ultimately refused to do it. I thought she was kidding about that last part, but she said, "no, I like your nails how they are." And she left. I left very good tips for everyone especially since the work was well, but I was very disappointed and insulted by the experience. read more

Well I didn't take my own advice and went here again on Wednesday May 19, 2021. My husband and I came to get a nice pedicure before our trip to San Antonio. My husband's technician was awesome. Mine sucked. Normally you get a great massage along with it, this girl was the worst person I have EVER had for a technician. She pretty much watched the movie playing the whole time, barely any interaction as far as talking, just pushing my feet and legs around. She NEVER touched my toes during the massage or my legs. Just a couple very light rubs on the bottom of my foot, literally rubbed lotion on with two swipes. She was hurried to keep up with the girl doing my husband's feet, so needless to say, I got the sh$&@iest pedicure ever. Oh also the water was too hot and my feet were RED. I picked a gel polish, which is $20 more, and the top coat wasn't even shiny like it's supposed to be. (She tried rubbing the cuticle oil on it to make it shiny, like I was too stupid to realize what she was trying to hide). Two pedicures cost me $120, plus a tip (if it were up to me, my husband's technician would have gotten both tips) So. I hope this helps someone. I wish I would have gotten her name. But by that time, I was so pissed I had to get out of there before I said something I would regret... Buyer beware. read more

This was my 2nd time here and I think they charge extra this time. It took almost 3 hours for this manicure and simple pedicure plus when I showed them the specific picture of the nails I wanted, they said we can do it and at the end the lady was not able to do it and still I paid $120 + tip without getting the services I was looking for. read more

Terrible customer service. Clearly described what I wanted and did not receive it. I didn't give a complicated design. No massage or lotion was given and one of my nails is already chipped. My skin is super dry and was stained from the SNS powder. I only went there because the nail salon across the way was booked. Do not recommend. read more
