Dip powder
Adrianna E.

La Vie nail spa is super clean and the minute you walk in, you are asked to wash your hands! This was my first visit and having loved form the Houston area, I'm in search of my new home salon. I met a friend here who comes often, so I was willing to try! Overall, the services were good... I got a gel pedi with hot stones $50 (plus the extra charge to remove the previous gel). Ivy was very sweet and my pedicure looks great! Unfortunately, I needed my nails done as well but the dip powder selection was minimal and nothing matches my new pedi color... I wish Inhad this information prior to choosing a toe color... My nails were ok... nothing terrible but nothing over the top great... I chose a color that would compliment my toes and decided me on a minimal design to jazz it up for the holiday... $124 before tip for both! Definitely more than my precious home salon but I wasn't "wowed" by anything... Cleanliness 5 stars... price on the higher end, salon was quiet on a Monday and the techs were friendly. I wouldn't drive 40 min again but if I'm in the area in the future I would pop in for a pedi

Fall nails

Such an amazing place. They always do an amazing job. This was my first time here before thanksgiving and have been back multi with no issues. Always welcoming to everyone even if they are super busy. The service I requested was definitely executed!!!

SNS Nails

I recently visited La Vie Nail Spa and had an amazing experience! I got SNS nails, which cost $45, and the service was exceptional. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. They cleaned up my cuticles and gave me a little hand massage when I was done. My nails look fantastic, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I'll definitely be returning and highly recommend La Vie Nail Spa to anyone looking for top-notch nail care. I didn't get his name but the guy who did my nails was really great!

Acrylic dip French ombré
Rachel D.

I really like how my nails came out! I asked for a French ombré. Usually it's hard for my nails to come out well with acrylic since they're so tiny but I think they look great! My only negative is that they didn't work on my cuticles and were a bit rushed, and it is really expensive! Overall I would probably come back.

Bleeding. Painful for two days. Sloppy work!

This is my first review on Yelp. Given 1 star because the place was clean. What I didn't like or was upset about- 1. A bad pedicure that left me bleeding on one toe. 2. Unfriendly staff. 3. Instructions were yelled at from across the room with the entire room staring at me! No please or thank you from the manager there- Lisa! I felt I was very badly treated. 4. Expensive. I was waiting to get out of there and never return.

Sarah A.

I tried 4 other salons and was not impressed with any of them and finally discovered La Vie Nail Spa. I was pleased when they gave me the manicure I had asked for at all the other salons. Like the other reviews said it is a little more expensive but for me it was worth it to have a manicure I like in such a clean and comfortable environment. I will definitely be back. My mani is perfect and I can't wait to show it off!

Love my pedi!

Highly recommend Jenny for Pedicures and Manicures at Austin Texas Bliss Nail Bar. If you are like…read moreme and have more than one child request Kim. Me and my 3 daughters and 2 sons are repeat customers. Loving the July 4th Tributes

So I've been coming here for years, I used to love this nail salon. Recently they've made a few…read morechanges and it's unfortunate. A few months ago I went in to get the dip, it's what I prefer, then the nail tech told me acrylic was better. She said it would be cheaper to get it filled every time versus a whole new set with the dip. I was paying around 60-70 with the dip for reference. She also said it would be healthier for my nails, so I reluctantly gave in. I wasn't super happy with the outcome but I didn't feel like addressing it. So a few weeks later I took my teenager to get her nails done and I got a fill. My teen got designs, a new set and gel polish so her nails were understandably 75.00, I got a fill with a solid color, nothing extra, and it was 70.00. I asked why it was so expensive at the register and they said maybe it was because they trimmed my nails, but they did not so I let him know. They took 5.00 off. So I still paid 70.00 for a fill. I could have just gotten the nails I originally wanted. So after that, I had decided I was just no longer going to be getting my nails done. It's not worth it. They have outpriced their customers. But for my birthday I got a gift card so I decided to use it to get my nails taken off, and that solidified my decision to stop going completely. So when I'm getting a new set they take the time to gently soak off your nails, but if you're just having them removed they drill your nails down aggressively. I told the girl several times it was painful, that did not seem to stop her. I sat there anxious, sick to my stomach because it was so uncomfortable. I spoke up several times, which is unlike me in situations like this. So after I give my nails a break I'll find a new nail place, because as much as I loved this place, it's no longer consistent. You never know what you're going to get and the prices are insane. So if I'm going to pay 70-80 for basic nails I'd rather have EXACLY what I want.

Tried this place for the first time, and do not recommend to go there to anyone. Horrible service…read more I had an appointment for 2 services. Front desk young girl was so unpleasant, that it felt like I got to a birthday party uninvited. Was pointed somewhere in the corner to take a chair. For her statement "choose your color" I responded, I don't want nail polish, it's just plain today. She looked at me like I was an alien then, in her language, loudly informed all the other workers there, so everyone is staring at me as I am walking to pointed chair. Then they left me there for almost 40 minutes sitting, while other workers were finishing up other clients. My feet got cold sitting in the bucket of water. One of the employees came, was doing pedicures as usual, barely snipping anything, and put a load of cream so her imperfections would not be visible. Then she moved to my fingernails, was just rubbing my hands, snipping here and there so fast that she dropped her tools on the floor. The front desk girl passed a few times and looked told her to hurry up. One more woman was sitting in her chair waiting for her services, she was told by the front desk girl to wait max 5 mins and the technician will be right with her. 5 minutes???? She started 5 mins ago! After she completed a horrible manicure in about 8 minutes on both hands, I went to the front desk to pay. I showed my nails to the front desk girl and said: "Does this look like I just had a manicure done? Do your employees here always rush to finish sloppy so they can move on to the next client?" She imminently forgot the she spoke perfect English, looked and me and said: "Oh I no know, I am not good at manicure, I can't tell". Then she offered to call a manager, I didn't want to make a scene there, understanding that they will all now forget how to speak English and that they are there to only work on nails. I told her no need, but I will not consider coming back here anymore. She says I am sorry, I don't know. I looked at her and asked if she still going to charge me for a manicure that wasn't a manicure, that I had walked in with better fingernails than I am walking out with, but of course her response was..... "I am sorry, I no know, I don't understand manicure!" $90 later she looked at the receipt to check if I left a tip or not! It does take a few salons to try to find someone that actually can do a proper manicure. This is not that place.

I'm done giving chances here unfortunately. Every time I come in someone is on a Zoom meeting, work…read morecall, or even Zoom video running a full meeting. It's not relaxing and the staff here does nothing about it. I go for nails AND relaxation , not to be around rude women on their laptops. We will be going elsewhere from now on.
