i've been coming here since i was 15 in 2021. the service is always amazing. i usually get a female nail tech but have had two male techs. everyone is so hard working! e'shee is a bit on the pricier side, but my nails always last so long. the good service, conversation, and safe location also make up for the price! they even offer you refreshments and have a lot to choose from. btw pay in cash for a discount! i've gotten acrylic and gel done for my manicures. recently, i got the deluxe 1 and classic 1 pedicures. for the classic 1, i got a french pedicure done and it lasted almost 2 months before it started chipping. (see picture for how it looked at 6-7 weeks, before i cut it.) they always give a relaxing foot and leg massage! read more

I don't go there anymore as I moved south but for a good nail place located in northern Austin, they were always great. Do make an appointment as they're usually pretty busy read more

I used to get my nails done in Leander, but recently moved to North Austin and didn't want to make the drive out to Leander to get my nails done. I decided to give E'Shee a try and I was so happy with the results! I got a builder gel fill and then gel with chrome powder. My nail tech was very kind and definitely took her time on my nails, which I appreciate! They came out looking great and I'm very happy with the length, the shape, and the color! read more

Went in for a gel manicure. Danny was such an amazing artist. He helped me find the exact color and shade I was looking for! His work is so neat and precise. The salon was very organised, and the people are friendly. Absolutely recommend this place! read more

They charge based off how you look! Been coming here on and off for the last year but today I decided I'm done getting hustled. Cat eye used to be considered gel polish but a few months ago they started charging an extra $20 for it (on top of the gel polish fee) and placed that price hike on the specific polish books. I found a book today with no price listed meaning it's just considered gel polish, but right before the girl paints my nails she tells me French tip is an extra $20 then another $20 for the polish I chose. I said no extra fee was listed for this polish, she said all cat eye is extra and the $20 sticker must've "fallen off". Ok whatever. I get to the front and she says it's $155!!!!!! For a fill in and pedicure????? $37 pedi, $20 cat eye, $20 French tip, meaning my toe gel polish and my fill = $78???? The math not mathing. I got a full set and pedicure with designed for $130 just 2 weeks ago. How is the fill more? Anyways just pick a nice honest place that displays pricing and doesn't make prices up based off how good I look that day. I literally try to dress down when getting my nails done btw just to avoid this experience but it didn't work today. Smh would not recommend read more

Super sad to see this place go downhill. I've been coming for almost 5 years since 2021 and they were always great! My go to place for pedicures and full sets. These past couple of months haven't been the best and I think I've tried for the last time. Their prices have gone up super crazy -- for reference I got a gel pedicure and builder gel set done in May and it was $100. I just got a gel refill and it was $75. All that for a set that's just okay and I left unhappy with. It's super thick and was told they couldn't do it thinner so they're thick and look terrible. I had to ask for 9 different colors because they didn't have a single one and I had to just settle for one they finally had. They didn't do my cuticles, didn't go all the way down and the sizes and shapes are all over the place with some being round and others being pointy. It literally looks like I already need a refill because of the gap. As dedicated as I was to this place they got a new management or something and it's no longer the salon it used to be. I'm sad to say I'll be in the market for a new place. Don't recommend anymore. read more

Hey my friend, did our nails here. I don't normally do my nails honestly, but I decided to paint them black for Halloween. I also did a pedicure as well. They were really helpful with any questions that we had. They were also very gentle because I was getting ticklish when they were doing my pedicure. My friend has been going here for years and she really loves it. She swears by it and feels at the technicians here all do a great job. I agreed with her I really liked my nails. They also were not pushy and were fine with me getting regular Acrylic nail polish instead of gel. The vibe is also very relaxing. They gave us complementary wine. This is a great way to spend some time with a friend. read more

Always amazing service. The nail salon is well staffed, you won't have a long wait time even if you're a walk-in. I've tried other nail salons closer to my house but I keep finding my way back to e'shee, as the service has always been great, price is reasonable and they have later hours than most salons in the area. And not to forget, my nails always come out amazing! read more

I've been coming here for years and things have been really consistent until today. And now that I'm thinking about it, this place does not seem as clean/spa-like as it used to be. The front desk barely looked up from their phone to greet me as I walked in. Ive been to salons that take the time to get to know their regulars. This isn't that place. I asked for a dip manicure. I asked the nail tech if the shape of my nail could change from square to almond and she said no. Okay, fine. As the tech was removing my old dip, she burned me a few times with the e-file. I tried to ignore it. Then, she asked if I wanted her to take all my old color off before putting on new color. Yes... obviously. She then said if she took all my color off I would get an infection. .... what?! I tried to ask why and she just muttered under her breath and told me not to get my hands wet. Weird. Then she said I was scaring her because I squeezed my hand every time she burned me. Keep in mind, she's JUST taking off dip so far. At that point I felt like she had no clue what she was doing so I left. I was disappointed that they hired someone like her and that no one seemed to care that I was upset or left. I went to Glos & Glo across the street. They greeted me with hot tea (it was pouring rain), sat me quickly and took off my gel/reshaped my nail without any issues. I won't be ever going back to Eshee. read more

These Nail operators are so rude to you. It's as though they think they're performing brain surgery on you and you owe them accolades or something. They want really high tips for giving you really poor behavior. They do decent jobs of Nails, but as humans this is a shockingly snobby establishment I do not recommend it. read more

I rarely treat myself to a mani pedi but I did a few weeks ago. Oanh did an incredible job and is meticulous. My mani pedi stayed nice for a long time too. Oanh was also a pleasure to speak with. I'll definitely be back and ask for her in the future. read more

I have came to this locations a couple time before for pedicures and had zero issues! However, this time I came and asked for a manicure, and I am very dissatisfied. To start off they made me pay up front first, something I have never done, not at any nail salon. I was confused because no work had been done on my nails, but I went ahead and paid. I was given the receipt so I could tip them but again no work had been done yet so what was I tipping for yet????? It was super rushed, the entire process took about 30 minutes, which included the paint job. My nails looked so bad and i thought she was going to come back and fix them but she just started packing up and clearing the area. I was so confused. Needless to say, I won't be coming back :( I loved this spot, but from the last couple times I can say the service/quality has gone downhill. I will include pictures, one nail had an air bubble, another had some dirt or dust, and overall they just look bad. read more

My daughter has been coming to this nail salon before Vaughn bought it. We are treated like crap there now. I asked for Chris and Jimmy and made an appt for Saturday. When we walked in we got 2 people we didn't even know. Then I was told that Chris did not work on Saturday. Rude young women at the front. Don't trust them. When the owner is there its great. Otherwise don't go. read more

I have been coming here for 6 years now on and off. I got my Quinceañera nails here (a hispanic version of a sweet 16) and got any special occasion nails here. about two years ago I decided to invest in myself and get my nails done regularly. It has been the best decision ever. Ivy is my favorite person on earth and I ALWAYS have the best time. Very accommodating, reliable and always the best quality. If there's ever a fluke (only happened 1-2 times) they are happy to help fix if the nail polish is peeling or if a nail is lifting, etc. I have brought friends and family here to treat them and they come back anytime they want their nails done now! I do go during the week on my day off but I know that they do get pretty full midweek-weekend. That just tells you that they're THAT good! adding pictures of some past nails that I could find. some nails have lasted me 6+ weeks! Price wise, plain nails one color, gel x costs me 65-70 but I budget to spend $100 (cost + tip). read more

My husband and I have been coming here since 2015. We have had pedicures, manicures, no nicks, or cuts and very nice and professional. The atmosphere is so glamorous, exciting and refreshing that we come every other month. The price is inexpensive since I don't have to rush back to have a nail fixed like some other places. Thank you E'Shee for always being there for us! read more

Loved my nails. I had a mani pedi did the gel x and she did awesome! My gel pedi was equally terrific. I was a walk in and they took great care of me. I'm not a fan of doing mani pedi at the same time but I was a walk in. The vibe is busy and a little awkward for me but it wasn't as relaxing as I had hoped. read more

I've been going to e'shee for about a year now and I've walked out super happy many times. The staff has always been super friendly. I have walked out unhappy a few times but the reason I'm rating it so highly is that if I end up with a nail break or chip or truly don't like my nails after my appointment, I end up calling and they ask me to come in and always fix it to make me happy with the final result. And usually at no extra charge to me since I already pay a ton for the original nails. Overall, I really enjoy this place. It's kept pretty clean and the staff is always so sweet. And even if you break a nail the next day or if you end up not liking the final product, you can always call and they will accommodate. read more

My two daughters and I have gone to E'Shee for two years and love the services! For acrylics my daughter absolutely loves Skye! Her recent Fourth of July nails were some of the best art I've ever seen. For gel mani and pedi there's the greatest service from Ivy, Lynn, Moon, and Lila! The hot rock and paraffin service is an absolute favorite by my girls and me! Awesome front of house! Sweet girls who remember your name and accommodate your appointment requests whenever possible. Clean, well equipped, well staffed, and a rainbow of new and classic standards to frost your fingers and toes! read more

First time going to this place today. I got acrylics and asked for square nails that are slightly skinnier on the ends. I tried to speak up several times and tell the nail tech that my nails looked thick and the shape looked too big. He would file a little bit but i could tell they were still too chunky. He responded with "they are big because your fingers are big" I just paid and quickly left read more

Yes, yes, yes. THIS is the place to go if you want a thorough and relaxing pedicure. E'Shee is conveniently located in North Austin, plenty of parking, and PLENTY of people working at this salon to accommodate both appointments and walk ins (though I do recommend making an appointment because they are popular!). Their prices are very affordable compared to other salons and you definitely get bang for your buck. So happy to have found my go-to salons for pedicure pampering. read more

I have been coming to E'Shee for over 7 years now, I won't go anywhere else in Austin! Always a friendly service and high quality nails!

Decent salon with fast service. Unfortunately my gel manicure didn't even survive 36/48 hours before it began chipping. My cuticles are SHOT. They're peeling and just look so bad. Tried to use their text service to talk about options and didn't get a text back. Very upsetting. read more

E'Shee Nails Spa - Out of colors, didn't cover the whole nail on a few - Waxing Near Me - Austin, Texas

Paid 189 for my service and daughter which I don't mind paying if quality is good but that's not the case yes my daughters nails came out amazing and beautiful and she was treated with so much respect I love her nail tech but when it came to my nail tech she cut me numerous times and didn't seem to be fazed or have a single care again. As a nail tech of 7 years myself and still am but unable to do my own now due to a wrist surgery I had and will need another I thought it would be a good idea to get myself some self care done but boy was I wrong and the biggest regret. I called ahead of time requesting for my toes to be fixed due to another salon making them thick as well . The man I was on the phone with I can only assume is the manger made sure to inform me I would be in good hands and they would help me as he claimed my tech was the best one there and I'm not denying it but maybe not for acrylic toes . Anyway they start out service everything seems very nice until she kept cutting me REPEATEDLY yes once is fine it happened but not and most my toes and the concern she had was -0 wasn't fazed just moved on now that is not ok at all if you cut your client you apologize and clean it up and put ointment on it to prevent infection all nail supply stores have it because again it happens to everyone and if not that then just don't leave me bloody bare minimum. It seems that she was annoyed she have a long service with me as I paid for the highest pedicure there I asked if I was able to get a hand message because my wrist hurt and I was more then willing to pay she was not happy I asked and my daughter nail tech took over and she was more then happy to provide for me and she was amazing bless her soul and I'm not trying to hate on my nail tech as the rest of the pedicure was great but the lack of concern and professional is not there and I'm not ok with that. So if you want sterile service and professional service, do not come here I repeat do not come here. Prices are expensive which again is fine if service is good but it was not and manger didn't care so I definitely won't be coming here and will be sure to share this review to anyone thinks about coming here. Acrylic toes are not supposed to be thick as it can cause irritation to the toes from being too heavy along with acrylic toes are supposed to be around the entire toenail not just partly. Also, when doing acrylic toes underneath the toes need to be cleaned up to prevent thickness and to have a nice clean look. I've been doing my own acrylic toes for seven years and I have never had my toes look like this. This isn't just me as a nail tech. This is all nail tech that specialize in acrylic toes. You can tell if a nail check does not specialize if they do not do these basic things and they need to be retrained to do properly to prevent infection or irritation or bad reviews. I hope they can fix the situation and I hope that they can retrain their nail tech to properly apply acrylic toes if they choose to be charging these prices. Manager only refunded 35$ compared to the $189 I spent along with $40 tip for 20 each nail tech because I still strongly believe you tipped your nail techs because it is their time and effort and not easy on the body. read more

Best nail salon in Austin hands down. Such a vibe everyone is so nice and my nails always look perfect

Man...I really didn't want to write this review but I hope it helps someone when they book their next appointment. I made an appointment for an acrylic refill a couple weeks ago. When I walked in I was given a beverage and asked if I would also be wanting a new design. I said yes. They told to look around at the colors while they found someone to take my appointment. When my tech came to get me I had a feeling it wasn't going to go well. I'd picked out a white French tip design (with a couple swirly lines, abstract shapes) and said I wanted a two tone chrome where the design portion was. He misunderstood me a couple times after I showed him a photo and explained what I wanted, and even took my phone back to the front desk to show some co-workers before insisting he actually needed to do the design on black acrylic, which I didn't want. Overall the process took so long, almost 2.5 hours. Many mistakes were made and unnecessary steps taken and the end result was not pretty. I even simplified my request for the index finger (see photos) so we could just be done with it. My appointment was at 1pm, and I needed to leave by 3:15 at the latest and so I told my tech at 2:50 I needed to go in 20. He struggled to finish my nails on time and insisted on doing multiple top coats to lock in a mediocre execution of the design, delaying me so much that I literally took my hand out of the UV light and walked to the front so I could pay and leave. It ended up being almost $100 and I was late to my next appointment. Wish he had just passed me off to someone more confident and skilled at what I asked for instead of wasting both of our time (and my money). Picture of the design in question. I wanted the chrome ON the white part, not chrome nails with white design. Giving an extra star for my experience the time before. Ironically, when I was a walk in just for an emergency fix (I'd chipped a nail pretty badly), Von was at the front desk and took a good look at them and recommended I get a new set as my acrylics were starting to peel away from my real nail underneath. I forgot the tech's name from this time, but he was amazing!! Very patient and meticulous in shaping my nails, laying the acrylic thin and smooth, and executing the design perfectly. Wish I could say I had this experience more often. Hesitant about coming back now, it's been so hit or miss. read more

I went right after work and it was super packed with customers. However, I was attended to promptly and spent less than 5 minutes waiting. I had a young man do my dip manicure and he was extremely focused and detail oriented with my nails. He offered me a huge selection of beverages, which was impressive. He was done with my nails in less than an hour and they came out looking beautiful. Highly recommend for great customer service and quality services! read more
