Ann and her mother are amazing! I love coming here. I've tried SOOO many nail salons in SA since being stationed here and this one is by far the best. She offers soo many different services and every time I come I never know what I want lol and she's so patient and we come up with things together. Like these nails pictured. I knew I wanted yellow, polka dots and french in some way! She took that and picked out brown to go with it and it turned out amazing! She has even mixed powders for me personally to keep me in regs haha (USA). Oh and her prices are amazinggg! I brought my nieces here too she was patient with them, helped them pick colors. Just an amazing place! If you get a chance check it out! She really isn't recognized enough! read more

I had my nails done here about three times. 2/3 times I had to come back because either the nail polish changed colors or the nails were chipped after one day. Once I brought it to their attention, they said it was my fault. I was very offended that I was blamed for their cheap products. It's just not worth the time or money. And if you get it done right the first time, people wouldn't need to come back. Oh and don't let the old lady do your nails or the guy. They have no idea what they are doing. read more

I went to Kathy's nails for many years . Kathy and John were wonderful . After new ownership took over , however , I went once and stopped going after that . I didn't realize the salon would change so much so fast without Kathy and John . The salon was dirty , the instruments they used were not clean , they hurt me during my pedicure . So different than it used to be . I won't be going back . read more

Good salon have gone with family members and they take us all in at the same time. Nails always look great and my toenails last for a 2-3 weeks with no chips. read more

I have been going to Kathy's Nails since 2009. I had to stop getting my nails done for a while and didn't know Kathy and John retired. I scheduled an appointment and discovered Kathy and John were no longer there. I have had my nails done once since the new owners took over and I wasn't very satisfied. At first, my nails were nice, but it did not take long for them to pop off and look bad. I'm sorry they kept the name because it's not Kathy's Nails at all anymore. read more

Like others, I was a dedicated customer for years with Kathy and John and was very happy with them. After they sold their business I tried the new owners and have not been back since. I was just a number to the new owners. The customer service is not the same. read more

So powder dip nails have been a new nail trend which dips your nails with a certain polish and dips your nails into it to create fake nails instead of acrylic or solar. It's healthier for your nails and adds vitamins back into your nails too. I have been obsessed with this new trend and this place does it!! not all nail salons do this so it's great that this place offers it and does it beautifully! There's so many ways to do it and in different colors but I prefer the classic look of white French tips. John did my French dip powder and it looks amazing! he's fast at doing this and it turns out looking neat and elegant. I've been getting lots of compliments on my nails and will refer everyone to come here! read more

I wish I got the two ladies names that worked there (one was older, the other was younger). The older one did my nails and just grabbed my hands and pointed at what she wanted me to do. I don't want to say she was aggressive, but she didn't make my experience great. I also got burnt from one of the tools used to remove my acrylics. The younger lady seemed nicer and it was all very affordable, but I won't be going back. read more

I enjoyed my visit today. It's a humble business. I enjoyed the company of the owners. Very nice people. He did an excellent job of both colored powder and pedicure. Though they charged for removal of my dip whereas in other places they don't if you get another set. So my nails came out a little more expensive than where I normally go. However, they did recommend how to me how to save in the long run. My pedicure was good and so was the massage! Oh so good! My pedicure was less expensive. So I can say that you won't pay for overhead and the bells and whistles, which will save you money. But the quality is there. read more

I visited Kathy's nails for many, many years. Since the new ownership I stopped going. Atmosphere is not good anymore. Appointments are late, they charge for everything! read more

This use to be my favorite place to get my nails done when Kathy and John were here. Now it's became the worst, I recently got my nails done and shortly after they started chipping and cracking. When I informed the new owner she informed me that I would have to pay for the service of fixing the problem, even though I had just kigotten my nails done. When Kathy was there if I would have ANY recent problems with my nails she would gladly fix it without charging. I will definitely be looking for a New nail salon to go to from here on out. read more

My mom, myself and a neighbor had gone to Kathy's nails for a few years and LOVED it. Husband/wife team, didn't take walk-in's so your appointment was ALWAYS on time, if not earlier. Business was fairly quiet so you really could get some relaxation time with pedi's. But then they retired about 3 months ago and sold the business. We tried it a couple of times with new owners but to no avail. Always late with our appointments and I believe now take walk-in's which makes a difference. Also they raised the prices significantly and are defintely not as clean as the previous owners and the place is now loud. Sadly, we won't be returning. read more

Never come here again. Cant even scrub men's feet right. had to tell them what to do like if it was my profession smh.

My new go to!! Have tried many places with in 10 miles of my house, being new to the area. This will be my spot! 1. Most importantly appt times. If you have an appt, they keep it, they won't take a walk in before you and keep you waiting. Appt are Important. Walk one are second if time. 2. Mom and pop shop. John and Kathy are nice, well spoken, family people. 3. Good prices, 30 for a new set of solar. 4. Small shop. Know customers by name. 5. Funny: they have nail charms. Blast from the past. read more

Kathy's Nails - Such awesome work. And Very friendly, would most definitely recommend - Nail Salons Near Me - Live Oak, Texas

What a privilege it is to have my nails done in this clean and organized shop! I have never had my cuticle scraped! I never feel liike I'm in an Assembly Line as I have in other nail salons. John and Kathy work hard to provide a clean shop with the best service anywhere I've ever received. My only beef is that they stopped opening the shop on MONDAYS, my NAIL DAY!!! Oh well, they deserve a 5-DAY WORK WEEK!!! TIP: MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. THEY RARELY read more

My mom and I both scheduled a appointment to get a full set shellac on acrylic at the same time and we were blown away by the service and the quality of the work. We both love how friendly John & Kathy were. They both took their time, and made us feel comfortable and didn't rush. I've gotten my nails done many places but I have to say the quality and what I asked for was on point. Definitely will be returning customers and would recommend. read more

Had an appointment with John and my nails look beautiful! He did a wonderful job and payed impeccable attention to detail. He was also very kind; my allergies started acting up and he stopped and went and got me water to help with my coughing. Can't wait to go back for my fill. read more

John and Kathy are a husband/wife team doing pedicures and manicures. Now I don't get manicures but I do go for pedicures! I take my own nail polish simply easier for me to do touch ups in between. They keep the place clean and take appointments. They are very nice people. read more

Completely empty and informed me they couldn't help me for another 40 minutes, they didn't ask me what I wanted.. to be honest I was wearing a beanie and I felt like they were being RACIST!!!!! read more

Came to Kathy's Nails for manicure and pedicure. The place is small and it doesn't have high tech equipment but the couple that run the shop are nice. The guy put three coats on my nails and they were smudged three hours later. The massage was very relaxing and longer than most nail places. Overall the place is ok but I don't think I would be returning. read more

Call before you go. The site says you don't need an appt so I went in as a walk in. Went in for a simple color change and nail repair. Walked in and was overwhelmed by the smell. Bad ventilation. Then told they were not accepting anyone and then told bye. No offer to come back later or tomorrow. They had 2 customers and 1 technician. Wow. A little thrown off especially with the reviews. read more

I loved this mom and pop nail salon. Bring cash!! It's small, so it does get busy and wait time can be long so go early! Best nails I've gotten done in San Antonio so far, they are very friendly, chatt with you with a clean and orderly area. I loved it! read more

Just in from Chicago for a wedding. I wanted to get a pedicure. I looked online and they were rated highly so I chose to go here. The man there said they were not accepting walkins which was odd because there was only one person there being serviced. read more

The most tacky salon I have ever been to. Visiting my mom in Universal City for the day, but needed a fill. Look up some reviews and land here. I walk in and tell the guy what I need and he proceeds to hand me a bucket with wooden sticks with nails on the end to pick out my gel shellac color. The lady comes over and I tell her I'm looking for something similar to what I have on my nails, and she simply says, that's all we have. I don't know why I didn't get up right then and there. I tell her what I want and she tells me, I charge $21 for this and $11 for that... okay... fine. She gets to work on my fill and asks me to go wash my hands. I come back and she asks how I'm paying.. I tell her cards and she pulls out her card reader... she has not finished my nails? I ask her if it is normal to ask for payment in the middle of service (since the lady next to me received a pedicure and was almost done with her stuff, and had yet to be asked for payment) and she said we were more than half way done, and some people's cards get declined...? Never have I ever had a professional nail tech stop in the middle of service to ask for payment. I told her It was unprofessional and embarrassing and she just smirked and said sorry. I told her to charge me for what she had completed because I was leaving. She smiled and said okay. She did not care one bit how she made me feel. I was in tears asking her why she had been so ugly to me and she just continued to smile sarcastically. I have never felt so profiled in my life. read more

Based on previous reviews, I am pleased with their service. Clean, friendly atmosphere and my French nails look great. read more

This is an excellent nail salon. My nails are always perfect. They really care about what you want. This is a husband and wife establishment. The place is clean and very neat. They are very friendly. I have been going to them for 3 years and have never been disappointed with the quality of the nails. I would give it a 5 star but they don't do waxing. read more

Kathy did a beautiful job on my full set. She took her time and was very gentle. I'll definitely be back
