They do an amazing job with fake nails, this is the only place I'll get my nails done where they stay on for at least 10 days minimum, usually a couple weeks. They have decent prices and a welcoming atmosphere! Everyone who works here is super friendly and sweet and the nail techs do some great work. It's normally pretty easy and fast because they're always staffed properly so I've never had a super long wait. I love this place, check it out if you're looking for a solid place to get your nails done. read more

Finding a good nail tech here is really hit or miss. The male technicians were too aggressive while doing my nails, applying way too much pressure. I'd definitely advise easing up, as it was uncomfortable. I spent too much money to risk coming back again. read more

They were extremely rude to me. Did not tell me original price at start then tried to overprice me almost $100 for French tips ended up telling me to go back to where I came from horrible experience overall and I will not be coming back. read more

Customer service does not exist. The manager, Alice, is rude, unprofessional, and too emotional to run a business. Nail techs are inexperienced and the quality of work is below subpar. Hard pass, save your time and money ladies and gents. read more

Went here for a gel manicure prior to my beach spring break plans. Within 1 day, my nails were already chipping & peeling. That shouldn't happen with gel. They are supposed to last for 2 weeks. Well, these didn't last and I'm very annoyed. This cost me more money than a regular manicure and they aren't holding up. I will not go back to this place. read more

I really enjoy my nails! Even though it's a bit pricey, I think it's totally worth it. Ben, did such a great job, will be coming back too. read more

Love the nail techs and Alice, but will echo what many others have mentioned -- front desk guy consistently sucks. Don't know if he hates his job, his life, or just the customers, but he's totally ruining the experience. Otherwise would've given 5 stars. read more

So while visiting I realized that I totally need to get my brows cleaned up. Found this awesome place. The outside doesn't do this place justice. Seen the pics on Yelp and had to check it out myself. That pic is only of the front and there is a section behind there. It looks even nicer then the pic .Super clean and nice. Sorry forgot to take a pic of inside All of the Staff was very nice. I was fortunate enough to have Ms Michelle (manager) take care of my brows wax and cleanup. She did a fantastic job. I will most definitely stop by next time wile in town and bring my wife for an additional pedicure. Thanks Ms Michelle and se you folks when back in town read more

Aura Nail Salon - Outside - Nail Salons Near Me - Allen, Texas

Prior to visiting Aura, I went to another salon for about 7 years. I stopped going there due to how far I was driving and just wanting a change. This was my second time visiting Aura, and the entire atmosphere went above & beyond my expectations. One of the salon managers (Alex) is super sweet! Never have I ever been greeted or offered specific services the way she did with me upon walking in. Sophie did my nails the first time, and this time around since Sophie is on vacation, Sam did my French tip ombré nails. Sam had a great sense of humor and was super patient and understanding of my nail shape preference and color of the pink I wanted for my nails. I used white with a 'warm' pink to get this result. read more

Aura Nail Salon - Pedicure, flower design by Hana - Nail Salons Near Me - Allen, Texas

Today I had the worst service and Ive been coming here for 3-4 years. Service has gone downhill extremely over the past year. This was my first pedicure in 2 months (im postpartum) and I was so excited to come in. My feet were manhandled by the tech, she was aggressive for no reason, nails cut too short, did not even get the full service of the pedicure I requested. Idk if she was having a bad day or mad I didnt want gel, but the service was horrible. And when I talked the person at the front just to let them know, I was give a coupon to shut me up lol. I wont be returning. PLEASE GO WHERE YOU ARE VALUED. read more

Use to love Aura. Go every three weeks for over 2 years with my mom for dip nails with design and pedi. Unfortunately top nail designers have since left. Kevin was suggested to replace nail artist I worked with. Kevin was over an hour late for 11am appt. He told me, "Well, I just woke up" and never acknowledged that I'd been waiting over an hour. Kevin also told me he can't do design I wanted on dipped nails, must do acrylic. When I showed him photos of past designs painted on dipped nails by former nail artist, he told me he knew better. Ended up having someone else do plain chrome nails just so could get something done after being there for hours. Great and friendly nail techs like John and his wife Anna do amazing pedicures though. Thing is there are too many amazing salons to experience rudeness at salon and not be able to count on design nails and toes at the same time. read more

Aura Nail Salon - Gel x by Tina - Nail Salons Near Me - Allen, Texas

This first part of this review is based solely on the receptionist. I feel like he deserves his own personal review to be honest. To make it simple, he sucks. He does not need to be the face of Aura due to his lack of customer service and friendliness. If I would've based my experience on how I was greeted and helped (I could've asked a dog for better help), this fine establishment would've gotten 0 out of 0 stars. Not sure if people intimidate him, or he just doesn't like colored folk, but please for the sake of Aura get someone else at the front of the house. Now the real star of the show was this sweet lady who was walking around assisting the nail technicians. I do not know her name, but her service alone made up for how small I felt when I first walked in. She made me feel welcome, heard, and she assisted me in deciding what style I wanted. Ben and Tiff sweetened the deal by working diligently and making sure I was satisfied throughout the entire process. Overall, this establishment deserves 5 stars. Exceptional service, very clean, and I wasn't even grossed out using the restroom. If they fix that minor setback at the front, I wouldn't mind driving from Deep Ellum every time I needed my nails done. read more

Update....highly disappointed as two of the best nail technicians Aura had John and Kim are no longer working at this salon. If you were looking for unique art, John was one of the best talents they had and Kim was the absolute BEST when it came to pedicures. What a great loss. read more

This is my fave low key nail place now ! My 3rd time coming and they did an amazing job again ! This time Tang did my nails and he killed it !!! Super classy and cute I love how he took his time and had patience with me while having my 1 yr old with me I love that you see what you're paying for they don't make up prices like most places you see every tip every shape every style listed on the price sheet Love this place and will return read more

They are not professional whatsoever I went in to get my nails done, they made me wait for 40 minutes at that point I was getting late for my next appointment and asked them to just do a manicure, they left all of my nail polish on from my last dip It was terrible. They didn't say they had availability for me. They just sent me down and then expected me to wait an hour and a half plus. read more

Gary the nail tech was recommended by a friend and he has always delivered! I've always either had gel or dip and he's always done a great job! He has great attention to detail and if you're looking for someone that does great shaping, designs and exactly what you want (even from picture designs I've shown him), then Gary is your guy! Aura has done a great job of creating a clean and elegant atmosphere to relax in while getting pampered. The only reason I'm not giving it a 5 star is that the few times I've done a gel pedicure and they haven't lasted nearly as long as long as others I've had done in the past at other salons (maybe 2 weeks when I'm used to doing ver a month at least) read more

Everyone in there are super sweet, the guy at the front is also very nice with great customer service, I love that they check up on you throughout your service. Today I got serviced by Sandra! She's so nice & takes her time on your feet! She does a great job:) it's a beautiful place with beautiful people! 10/10 read more

As a walk-in on a Saturday evening I wasn't expecting to be served so quickly, but I was happily surprised. The nail salon has the most aesthetic vibe and design, which makes being in there so much better than the average nail salon. I had the best nail tech who is so talented at what she does! I didn't have a particular design in mind, but I knew I wanted Valentine's Day inspired pink nails. She pulled up some photos that matched the vibe I described perfectly! Jessica went to work as I was kindly served a drink and she absolutely slayed and ate these nails. Honestly, they're some of, if not the best, nails I've gotten. After trying some nail salons around me with disappointment, I gave Aura Nail Salon a try on a whim, and their serve, talent and atmosphere went above & beyond. I also think the price that I was charged for Jessica's design was a great deal! Literally, go to Jessica for some of the best nail designs in Dallas period. Girl is talented & super nice! read more

Omg, I love this place. It took me a while to write this because I really wanted to see how long these nails would hold. I normally keep my nails very simple but I wanted to try something new. I looked up a nail salon really close and found Aura. I looked on their facebook page and seen a pair of nails and fell in love (inspo pic will be attached). When I got there I showed the lady (Jessica) pictures, turns out it's her art! So I told her I wanted this design but way shorter and almond. As she was doing my nails, she was being very detailed about the colors used and made sure the sweetest woman (Holly) had my toes to match as well. I even revived a mini massage by Sam which felt so nice. All and all the experience was amazing and the nails are still going strong over a month later! Thank you wonderful ladies. read more

I am a bit torn on my rating. I'll start with the negative and end on a nice note. As I expected, these kinds of mass-produced shops are more about turnover and getting you out of the chair to get the next person in. The motivation is most about money and not efficiency. I could argue that in this business, people may want to relax while being serviced. It's hard to do that when you have to "focus" on how your foot is being turned while simultaneously being turned to get your nails done. I think these shops should really ask customers if this is their preference -- recognizing that some/many may want to be in and out quickly. They also charge for everything -- it feels like I am being nickled and dimed. I am often scared when asked "do you want ___"? Are you asking me so you can tack on another $5, $10, $20 to the service or you really think it's best or want to know what I want? Quality of work: I get compliments on my nails after getting them done, I did have to go in after 5 days to get quite a few repairs. A few of my toenails were also "diagonally" shaped (in error). All of these things were corrected by the shop with no issues. I was pleasantly surprised by that. I will go back to give them another shot because with the current 30% special, the cost correlates with the service. I would not probably return if there was no discount. I get boutique level service -- 1:1 -- with my regular nail technician for only a few dollars more than their regular price. That would not be worth it. Going to Target when I could go to Bloomingdales for $10 more. read more

Popped in today after work to get dip powder only. Was asked if I wanted a manicure, design or tips..which I declined. I was offered a large sample of colors to chose from then John got to work. He did a GREAT job. Very efficient and my nails look great. I was offered a drink off the cocktail menu and ordered a Midori Sour. It was actually quite potent! The salon was beautiful. I will definitely return and would ask for John again. read more

Sophia or Sophie gave me the WORST manicure I've ever had. She was rude and rough with my hands. When I left I was bleeding and upset. My nails had huge bumps throughout, weren't shaped, and looked horrible. On top of being rude and jerking my arms around. I had an appointment after but showed the manager Kayla my nails and she told me to come back and she would fix them. This is the reason for 3 stars. I came back the next day and picked the 3 worst nails to have her redo. She looked at how awful my nails were and took the initiative to redo the entire set. But not before Sophie could come stand over me and laugh. So uncomfortable. I did leave after the redo happy with my nails. Avoid Sophie and you could have a good experience! read more
