They are so nice and did exactly what I asked for such a amazing experience I am definitely going back !!

I haven't treated myself to a pedicure in almost 2 years. I can't even begin to tell you how extremely disappointed I was with the service today. I felt very rushed. She also painted my toenails before she did any of the other stuff. It literally says on the menu that they will massage and do all these things to your feet before they paint them. Why would I stick my brand new painted toenails into the dirty disgusting water??? She used that cheese grater thing on my foot and then didn't bother buffing it out and now my feet feel like sandpaper and I am beyond pissed off. I'm going to flag this is a fraudulent charge and I hate doing that because I know these people work hard, but I felt like a number not like a person. The bottom of my feet are tender from how much she cheese grated them. Honestly made me so unhappy. The massage chair they put me in didn't even work. The paint job even looks juvenile. Reading the menu the only difference between number one and number two pedicure is the hot stones so you're telling me I paid six dollars to have this lady smack my feet with a hot stone for less than a minute each foot less than one minute smacking my foot nothing about her foot massage with those stones was enjoyable. I guess we all have to make a living, but seriously do not work in this industry if you do not like your job. read more

I wish I had checked the reviews before coming here. The place was completely empty, and the staff clearly didn't want to be there. They argued over who had to help me... When someone finally came over, I could tell he was bothered because he had to stop talking to his girlfriend at the front desk to help me. I told him twice I wanted a French tip, and he still painted my nails completely white. On top of that, he cut me during the process. The salon was dirty, which makes me concerned about infection. I regret staying I should've left as soon as I saw how unprofessional everything was. Save yourself the trouble and GO SOMEWHERE ELSE !!! read more

Diamond Nails - Cut - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

They cut me and did a really bad job. Could not do simple design and didn't use the polish I wanted.

The man who did my nails did a great job! Last salon i went to made them too thick, crooked and they stuck upwards for some reason. I let him know my past issues and he did them perfectly. For acrylic nail tips plus the design total came out to $75 (without tip) which i feel is avg austin price. read more

I always have a good experience. everyone is so nice! I'm a very picky person and I shake a lot of hands so my nails need to be perfect. I show them a picture and they get it done for me. They have a bar with alcohol and non alcoholic drinks. Occasionally, they will have a special where they even offer treats. Very clean, nice, and quiet. I will be coming back. Thanks Diamond Nails! read more

The nail lady i had was very sweet and kept up the conversation. My nails came out OK and i had a inspiration pic but they basically did my nails nothing like them except for the black french. She was really rough on my cuticles and blamed that my cuticles were dry and that's why theyre bleeding.. (been to a nail tech before and there was little to no bleeding) my cuticles were sore for 3 days. i needed to get my nails done last minute so that's why i came here but it was 83 dollars WITH a discount and no tip.... read more

I've been coming here for YEARS. Probably 8 years or so. I've experienced many nail techs and I have to admit - I just had the BEST manicure so far. True is one of those nail techs that are really detail oriented - and not just aesthetically, but functionally too! From years of acrylic application, my nails took a beating - they were super brittle and breaking so easily. I decided to no longer do acrylic and wanted to go back to gel manis, but my nails weren't strong enough (got them done at another salon). When I walked in, True listened to me, and immediately went to problem solving. She suggested polygel and she understood that eventually I'd like to nurture my natural nails back to health - and hopefully get them super strong again. Until then, she's got me on a polygel plan. I was very impressed at how she applied the polygel, talked me through the steps she was doing, and also just being someone I could chit chat with All in all, this manicure is CLEAN. Perfectly straight nails, cuticle work, consistent gel application, and shape is A1. Totally coming back! read more

A literal chop shop. I can't stress this enough. I asked for a dip manicure, they knew they would have to dip my fingers in community dip powder. My cuticle was literally picked apart. I'm shocked, it just kept bleeding and I was told "wash your hands". I washed my hands and then just left...like... I just...yall, look at this photo. Suffice to say, I did not let them finish. I recommend you just find somebody else to do it, I doubt their certs are valid. read more

Diamond Nails - Unfinished Manicure due to excessive bleeding caused by the nail tech picked at my cuticle. - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

My favorite spot for the best nails in Austin since 2013. They have the broadest selection of colors and finishes (even a wide range of colors in acrylic, which is great for me having super weak nails), and Livia is the most exquisite artist I've encountered - she can create any design or technique you bring with the most meticulous attention to every detail. Hana and Brian are two other lovely artists. BONUS: I can normally wear my set for 3+ weeks which is such a treat when needing to spread my budget. read more

Diamond Nails - Silver Lining chrome by Brian - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

Coming in off a walk-in the staff was quick too, not fully comprehend or be concerned about my design when it came to my nails and sat me with just anybody when I came in for a full design. Once finished, the nail tech made me take photos of my hands for his own personal account (Hin). continue to charge me over $175 for a French tip and a basic design. I asked if I was going to get a promotional discount of 5 to 10% for the exposure and the nail tech and the front desk continued to fight me on it and let me know that I was not welcome back. well, this is all going on. I asked the front desk for the man's name and told me that it would be bad for business for them to tell me his name for what he did wrong. This has made my first impression of the salon not great and very unprofessional. read more

I went for my first time recently and had a good experience. It took a bit for them to take me even though I had an appointment but overall, my nails turned out beautiful, they also have a really great color selection for both Dip and Gel. Annie did my nails and my friends and I will be going back to her again next time. She was very accommodating and diligent. read more

Yay! Diamond Nails has reopened and just in time for a summer pedicure! With quarantine measures relaxing, I appreciate the extra efforts they're going through to keep customers and staff safe and comfortable. All manicurists and customers wear masks, and only every other station is in use, allowing sufficient distance for safety. The nail stations now have a plexiglass partition to separate the customer and manicurist. An opening at the bottom gives access to hands and lower arms (for that nice massage you don't want to miss!) When I was at the drying station, I watched Mai (my manicurist) meticulously clean the manicure table and the pedicure station we had used. The place is sparkling. I was equally impressed with my beautiful manicure and pedicure. Good job, Mai! Now, let me slip into some of those summer sandals and show it all off! read more

Came here while visiting Austin and had my nails done by Kim Lee. It was the first time I tried dip powder and let me tell you, it was amazing! Not only did she do a beautiful job on my nails, but also, they lasted 5 weeks. The only weird thing was when I asked if I could have her number in case I'm back in Austin, she said she had to ask her manager, and the manager said no. This is very unusual in California, and I have no idea why the manager things she has the right to determine that. If I go back, and Kim no longer works there, I'm not gonna stay anyways so... anyways it was weird. read more

Diamond Nails - Best mani pedi in life!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

Update 6/20/22- This salon recently got bought out (or so I assume). All of the original staff was let go and my fill with a designed increased in price from $65 to $145. The new staff has not been friendly so I no longer recommend this salon. 11/21- Pure luck! when I moved to ATX I needed a new nail salon and was scared to try anywhere. I ended up at Diamond Nails and haven't left! Sonny does my nails every 3 weeks and is great with every design I show him. I recommend making an appointment every time as they are very busy and the wait times can be long. read more

So, I have been 'shopping' for a new nail Solon. I think I found it! My tech was Huy and boy was he nice! This place is affordable and also clean! They were busy at 10 am on a Friday (yes, an appointment) but I witnessed 2 walk in's. Diamond Nails took them without missing a beat. Amazing. Check out my digits. read more

These people are not good nail techs and they are rude on top of that. I tried to call ahead and give them a picture of what I wanted beforehand. They asked for my number so I could text the picture to someone and never heard back. I called again only to find out they never scheduled my appointment . So, I get there and this man is aggressively filing my nails. It's as if my fingers and him had an inter generational family fued and this was his chance to exact revenge. Not only was he handling my nails so roughly. He did not have the proper colors to give me what I asked and didn't say anything until I noticed the color was off. Then, he says they don't carry this color. I wish he would have told me before because I would have changed the style I asked for. Long story short, I was not satisfied in any way and I got charged to extra dollars for asking them to put another coat of polish on my big toes because I could see through the polish after 3 coats. read more

Great service, very attentive! I had Anna and Kimmie do my nails during an early afternoon. Anna did my manicure, and even though I have super short damaged nails, she kept the little length I had while making the cuticles and nail-shape beautiful! She was very thorough and precise, thank you Anna! Kimmie did my pedicures, and also did phenomenal. She kept it the perfect length and shape. My feet are also so soft! Thank you Kimmie! I will definitely be back to see those two wonderful ladies for my next gel appointment! read more

Paid for a $45 SNS manicure from Bee. She attempted to cut my cuticles dry (did not soak). Requested multiple times to have her soak them them prior to cutting. She stated OK and stopped cutting them, then later cleaned them up with the electric filing tool. Excess polish is surrounding fingers. Provided feedback to cashier who stated I could call back to speak with a manager. Will not waste my money here again. read more

This is my go-to nail salon. Faves are Lena and Tru. But really I always get a decent mani or pedi. Post Covid they never do the arm, hand, or shoulder massages but oh well. Prices are decent and it's nearby. Is it a luxury spa? No. But it's a consistently positive experience. read more

Diamond nails has a nice atmosphere. Sadly also a few really nice people who work there. But was extremely disappointed. My soon to be sister in law picked this place to come get our nails done before her wedding. She called and made an appointment for 4. When she arrived the manager was extremely rude to her and made her feel very uncomfortable. He did not have her appointment. Then he said they would figure it out. He did but was rude about it. Then she the bride was getting nails done while we got toes and did not get to be with her. The mother of the bride for her toes done and wanted the nails done too. However, the lady kept asking what color for nails and the MOB would say coffin shape and point at her toes and said same color as toes. The lady kept telling her "no color" and she got so embarrasses she gave up left and went to her nail salon up south. Overall the employees were nice . My nails and brides turned out good. But the manager was very very rude. Will not be back. read more

Diamond Nails - The place - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

If you forgot to schedule a nail appt before a trip, this is a solid walk-in type of nail salon... but that's really it. I don't think the customer experience here is anything worth raving about. You simply just walk in, sign in on their tablet (you MUST sign in or else you don't have a spot in line if it's busy) and you just kinda get your nails done and that's it. They have a bar area with a gadget coffee maker and some margarita machines, but they're never in use and out of commission. The last few times I've been here, they've never offered me a drink, so I just kind of got used to not asking for one. I feel if they utilized their bar, their whole vibe would be out of this world, like it's a really nice bar area!!... that they don't use lol. As someone that always gets gel on their nails, try to not be picky with your color they don't always have all the samples available and they kinda of make you choose a color from a limited set of samples. I understand colors are just colors, but I wanna see the OPI colors!!! They'll give you a set of colors from one brand and just kinda make you choose one and that's it. I always appreciate an organized color sample set, but you won't find that here. It's reasonably priced and they always have a lot of techs working so it's great if you need to get in and out. Overall, 6.5/10. read more

I've been coming to Diamond Nails for years, however, this last visit was under the new ownership and I knew immediately after sitting down that things have changed. First, I didn't recognize any of the nail techs from past visits. Second, the equipment and towels they were using could use some replacement. The manicure and pedicure overall wasn't bad. But the icing on the cake is now after a few weeks, I have fungal growth under several of my fingernails!!! UGHHH!!! I haven't had this happen in YEARS and I'm convinced it was from my last experience at Diamond Nails. So disappointed as I tried to give the new ownership the benefit of doubt. Needless to say, I will never go back again. read more

I Made a pedicure appointment over 2 hours ahead of time. When I showed up I had to STAND for 10 minutes waiting... then after I was finally approached by the girl at the front desk, she told me to just pick any chair to sit in for my pedicure. I asked how long until someone's is going to actually give me a pedicure- she continued to tell me I was going to be waiting for 10 more minutes until my feet were actually touched. Walked out and went down the street and was helped immediately. With no appointment. Don't come here. read more

I used to love this place years ago, so when I was back in Austin and looking for a new nail salon, I was excited to come back here. But after giving it three tries, I've concluded this salon isn't what it once was and Austin has much better to offer. They offer appointments. But each time I've made one (I've tried for early mornings on both weekends and week days), I've always waited between 45 min to an hour. When you ask how much longer, standard reply is "10 min." But then you wait for much longer than that. It makes it really hard to plan other parts of your day. The interior is nice, clean and includes what appears to be a fully stocked bar to enjoy while you wait for your service. But I've never been offered a beverage (not even water) during the long wait, and no one ever seems to be making drinks for customers. It's just there for looks, I guess? The service itself isn't that great. I'm sure it depends on the skills of your technician, but all three times I've recently been in, my polish doesn't last, the shape is off and the cuticle work is lazy. The technicians are working as fast as they can to get through the long line of people, so they don't pay attention to detail. Three visits and hours of wasted time waiting unfortunately make this salon a thing of the past. read more

Do you want to get Covid 19?? If you do make sure that you come here. I told the manager that there is a woman wearing ONLY a face shield, they did NOTHING!!! A face shield is not a mask. I'm appalled that they did nothing. No one is special and exempt from these rules/laws. The chairs are not wiped down after a client, they want you to touch all the polish bottles and were annoyed when I wouldn't get my own. I came here because I had a pre-covid gift card. I can say that I won't be back after what I saw today. As a fellow business owner we all have the right to enforce rules in our places of business, but what we cannot do is pick and choose who gets to follow those rules. And that's exactly what happened here today. It's VERY sad. read more

Diamond Nails - Unmasked woman, enjoying her best life while breaking the law. - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

This salon has steadily declined. I stopped coming here months ago as Queen Spa is 10x's better. Unfortunately, I am not the only one who loves them. I always have an appt, but today, on a Monday, I stopped in just to get two nails fixed and they asked me to come back 4 hours later! I made the mistake of stopping in Diamond Nails where it was 1/2 as packed as Queen. I signed in and waited 40 minutes and no one acknowledged my presence. I finally asked how long it would take to get my nail fixed and he told me 5 more minutes but if I had to leave, I could leave. I left and I will NEVER come back nor have I or would I recommend this place. read more

A gel manicure is $35 so it's a good price but I give the actual quality of the manicure and service a D-. They're always rushing so they end up just slapping some cheap polish on and then put the gel top coat on top. My nails cracked less than 5 hours after I got them for the SECOND time. It's not worth it. Spend the extra $10 and go to a higher quality place. Whoever the manager is (guy) he needs to stick to managing and never EVER touch another hand. He's also very rude. Will never go again. read more

I am attending a Christmas party tomorrow and I wanted to get my nails done; I didn't get anything close to what I asked for. Before she starting applying powder, I had to stop her because the nail itself was broken down the center! She was like, no no don't touch. I'm not done." I told her that she won't get done if she doesn't put a apply a nail that wasn't broken down the center. She annoying removed and applied a new nail. I seen some photos of nail designs they have done -- I showed them the picture I wanted , with the exception of silver versus the rose gold. The first picture, with the lightly dazzled is what I asked for. What I got wasn't quite elegant but more of a one finger ghetto mess. It would be one thing if they had no idea how to do the elegant and light glitter, but the picture was taken from their own Salon -- damn hot mess. I now have to fake like I love this shit because it's too late to go to a new salon and have them fix this mess. It's not a college party. This is a grown ass adult company party - appearance matters. The technician (Her name is Angel) was a sweet girl, as why I gave two stars instead of one. read more

I came for the first time and I will never come again. Guy was incredibly rude and impatient with me. He would give me trouble for asking something I wanted (which was to just make my nails shorter). They throw in little charges for nothing and it's not worth it at all. I ended up taking off my nails once I got home. Also side note - don't think they knew I was Vietnamese and they didn't know that I heard them/understand them talking badly about me to the other tech. read more

I was able to walk in on a Wednesday around 2. Was helped immediately. Woman that did my nails kept acting really frustrated and jerking my hands and arms in certain directions. I didn't know what she wanted me to do. It was annoying that I was paying for a service and I felt like I was doing something wrong. Sometimes nail technicians will tell me to relax because I'll flex my hands and fingers but she was just jerking and twisting and not communicating. Towards the end we were both ready to be done. My nail shape was more round than I like but I was ready to leave. They do give a little shoulder massage and lotion your arms which is nice that I usually don't experience other places. It was just ok, if I went back I'd probably try to avoid Ms. tug boat. read more

this place is a joke and i would not recommend it to anyone anymore. 90% of the nail techs have awful attitudes and act like it's a burden to do your nails how you ask for them. when you're paying their high prices, you should get good work in return. lazy lisa started doing my nails tonight until i realized they were botched beyond repair and i would need a new set. this is how they looked when i walked out. will be taking them off myself and going to their competition next door tomorrow. the other picture is how my friends nails looked the last time when she asked for holographic ombré. read more
