Really hurt my toes last week and caused several cuts. I probably won't return here. I've given…read morethem many chances and the work is subpar unfortunately even though they are close by. With how many times they made me bleed it makes me question their sanitation too. They can be pushy if you just want a normal manicure and pedicure. One time started doing gel even though I specifically said I absolutely didn't want that. Off to search for a new nail place. I would encourage this place to have better shows on their TVs. Watching Vietnamese cooking show isn't what anyone wants to watch while getting their nails done (raw fish?). Instead of being like every other place, make your salon stand out. Specialize in safe nail procedures. You reuse a lot of equipment. Be known for healthy nails (not removing nail polish with a drill).

Every single item and package went up. So now I would be paying an extra $20-$30 for a full set and pedicure. I was a regular. They priced me out.

There are some new salons that just opened up. ‍

I am so thrilled with my experience at Hydra Nails. This place is no frill ( I wouldn't call my…read moreexperience a "spa"), just straight to the point with great price - just how I like it!! I am very specific about my nail care; I do not like my nail beds or cuticles to be trimmed, but I still want them to look clean and neat. It can be hard to find a technician who respects this without making the nails look unfinished. Brian was absolutely phenomenal. He listened carefully to my preferences and was so gentle and precise. He delivered exactly what I wanted--my nails look immaculate, with perfectly polished color and incredibly neat, healthy-looking cuticles without any cutting. He truly understands nail health and customer service. I love my new nails and will definitely be requesting Brian next time I need my nails done.

I'm not sure what to say about this place. Two very different experiences. I came in about a month…read moreago, about an hour before closing time. They were busy, but got me in and I had a top notch pedicure. It was excellent. Today I came in at 5pm. They were not busy at all, but they were done in about 20-25 minutes. Everything was fast fast fast. Fastest pedicure I've ever had in my life. It was like they were trying to help me catch a plane or something. They did so good last time I decided to come back. Today was the worst pedicure I've ever had in my life, so I don't think I can gamble on going back. Don't know what I'm gonna get.

I had a 5:00 PM appointment and arrived on time, yet I wasn't seated until 5:45 PM with no…read moreexplanation or apology. Before starting, I showed Lynn (the manager) a reference photo of exactly what I wanted. The photo stayed in front of her the entire time. She quoted me $75, and I chose two colors up front, which were also in front of her from the beginning. Halfway through the service, after acrylics were already applied, she told me the colors I had chosen were "for regular polish, not gel," and made me change them. I was very clear from the start that I wanted a sparkly base and chrome, which was clearly visible in the reference photo. She assured me that even though she was using a matte color, it would "end up sparkly." This was not true. She then applied gray over my nails, a color I never wanted or approved. The design looked nothing like the reference photo. When I finally spoke up, I was told that if I wanted my nails to actually look like the photo, the price was now $90--a price that was never mentioned before or during the service. Changing the price after the service has already gone wrong is completely unacceptable. The final result was nothing like what I requested and honestly looked terrible. I paid $70 for nails I hated and was extremely upset afterward. When I called the next day to explain that I was unhappy, Lynn yelled at me, told me that "anywhere else this would be $100," and dismissed my concerns. This was never about the price--it was about lack of transparency, poor communication, and misleading customers. This experience felt dishonest and unprofessional. I will be disputing the charge and reporting this business. I do not recommend this salon.

I came here with two of my friends while I was visiting Austin and it was great. From the second we sat down, Ethan, Jaidan, and Kim absolutely delivered. Not only were they all incredibly kind and attentive, but their skill level really shows. We each went in with different designs and ideas, and somehow they executed every single one flawlessly. One of my friends got 3D nail art, which can go very wrong in the wrong hands, but hers came out stunning. Like, stop-you-mid-conversation-to-stare-at-them stunning. Mine were just as detailed and clean, and you could tell they actually care about the final result, not just rushing you through. The vibe felt relaxed, not chaotic, and we left feeling like we got exactly what we wanted and more. I'd absolutely come back next time I'm in Austin.

In our last 3 times here- its been down hill- I very much relate to the review left by Roushaunda- Feb 26th- there should be absolutely nothing wrong with getting our services done the way we would like them. especially when we have had them done before- I will ad to this- that it is extremely rude and unprofessional to have the back ground comments that we cant understand- but clearly know they are talking about (us) the client- and may I say not in a nice way. Uncomfortable to see a woman pacing back and forth behind-the technicians- like it was a jaihouse- its also terrible to make the client feel its our fault "sorry it wasnt a good fit" place has truly lost its charm- we will not be going back.
