From the moment I walked in, Yen and June made me feel like I was exactly where I needed to be. Let me tell you... June did my pedicure, and that woman has healing hands. My feet were tired, stressed, and probably ready to file a complaint, but she rubbed them straight to heaven. The level of detail she put into every step was unbelievable! No rushing, no shortcuts, just pure care. By the time she was done, my feet felt brand new. Yen handled my manicure with the same level of precision and calm energy. She took her time, shaped everything perfectly, and made my hands look and feel refreshed. It was gentle, meticulous, and honestly the best my nails have looked in a long while. This is not your typical flashy-designs-only spot, it's a place where they focus on you. If you want quality, relaxation, and a little humor along the way, L'envie is it. Highly recommend, your hands and feet will be forever grateful.

Terrible Service and Unprofessional Response…read more I came to this nail salon with a specific design request and spoke directly to the owner. She assured me they could do it and assigned me to Lee. During the process, I told Lee twice that it did not look like the photo I showed him. He told me, "Once I add the shellac, it will look pretty." Unfortunately, the final result looked nothing like the picture. I told Lee directly, "I asked you if you could do the design in the photo and you said yes. This is not even close." He simply smiled and shrugged his shoulders like he didn't care. When I went to explain the issue to the owner, instead of offering help, she turned around, walked to the back, and started talking to Lee in another language, completely ignoring me. I asked for a refund, and they both continued to ignore me. Very disappointing experience. I was misled, the quality was poor, and the customer service was even worse. I would not recommend this salon to anyone.

1 Star -- Declining Quality, Misleading Charges, Damaged Natural Nails and Greedy Practices…read more I went to Naliq Nail Bar (South Braeswood) on 10/04/25 for a refill and pedicure and paid $200.60 total ($170 before tip). This was my second visit and it will be my last. The first time I came, I actually left a 5-star review because my nails looked great at first. But even then, I had concerns I chose to overlook. The acrylic felt cheap and low quality compared to what I normally wear. I typically use CND Warm Pink, but instead of a true nude acrylic, they used clear acrylic that turned purple with the monomer and then painted gel on top to make it appear nude. The pedicure polish was also applied poorly and had to be redone multiple times, and they even charged me for "length" when my nails were already short. This time, those red flags became full blown problems. I asked for the same pink nude base and pointy shape as before, but the tech completely changed both without asking. My nails are now rounded, the base color is milky and uneven, and the overlay is thick and heavy. The receipt lists special shape, cat eye, French, and chrome, but charging $15 each for both cat eye and French doesn't make sense when the cat eye polish was only applied to half the nail tips. I also requested a cut down, but no length was removed. The tech used a hand file instead of a drill, then filed under my natural nails, thinning them so badly that when I remove this set, they may not even be strong enough for another overlay. The 3D gold chrome design was also layered incorrectly, leaving doubled uneven lines instead of the clean raised look from my inspo photo. For $170 before tip, I expected professional technique and care. Instead, I left with weakened nails, the wrong color and shape, and an inflated bill. I've attached photos and my receipt so others can see what this salon considers "premium" service. I tried giving them grace after my first visit, but this confirmed what I suspected: cheap products, inconsistent techniques, and inflated pricing. Never again. Let's call it what it is, $110 for a refill felt like punishment for being 15 minutes late. If time was really an issue, I should have been offered a reschedule, not rushed work. I was charged $5 extra for a "special shape" after clearly asking for pointy nails and showing a photo, yet still ended up with rounded, grandma shaped nails. And I could have let that slide if the art had been immaculate, but it wasn't. The gold chrome 3D design looks nothing like my inspo photo. You can't blame lateness to justify poor quality and overcharging for a result that doesn't even match what was requested. Make it make sense. Then I paid $55 for my pedicure, and they still added a $5 gel removal charge even though I didn't have them paint my toes. Regular polish was included, but I declined it because of a small green spot on my toe. So why charge for removing gel when no polish was applied? We should have been even. That just shows how greedy this salon is, nickel and diming clients on top of inflated prices, then still expecting a tip.

Ben is my go to man for removal of these nails because he is SO gentle and it makes the entire experience so pain free. I had an emergency today where I had ripped my real nail with the long acrylic backwards and up from the nail bed, it had bled so much and pus dried everywhere I couldn't clean. I had just had these nails put on and I was in PAIN, but ben took his time and saved the day for $10 (plus a big tip bc I SUPER APPRECIATE the way he took care of me). He has saved my nails on more than one occasion. I love that these nails, without removal services, last much longer than other places and come off pain free and my nails underneath are still healthy. They seem to be getting busier, I guess everyone found out the secret which sucks for me but they deserve it! My only negative is just that the pedicures dont impress me. I have paid for the basic and more expensive ones and the quality of my feet seems the same afterward and I still have to remove dead skin sometimes myself at home.

I was the only person here and it took tech over 2.5 hours to do my pedicure and dip nails. 2. I paid to upgrade my pedicure - my feet are still rough, I don't get a massage that comes with the upgrade, she chopped my toenails so low without asking what length I wanted, three of my toenails are only half way painted and I still have a lot of dead skin all over my feet. I paid extra for gel, and at least three of my toenails are only halfway painted . I did not think that I had to watch every move that she made so that my pedicure would come out correctly, or else I would've corrected her before she ruined my toenails. 3. My nails are AWFUL. There are air bubbles under all of my nails, the topcoat is messed up on every single nail, the shape is not what I was asking for, three of the tips that were applied to my nails do not even cover my entire nail. Every time I spoke up for her to fix the shape, she told me that she was not done yet. I have never had nails look this awful. I asked for square round yet I got some type of fanned out, square shaped nails, that I did not ask for, and my toes nails are round and chopped off. Neither of which I asked for either. The thing that irritates me, the most is that this is the one time that I had a sitter come over so that I could get out and pamper myself for my birthday. I have young children and cannot leave the house for hours at a time just to go get my nails done, and the fact that I sat for over 2 1/2 hours and my nails, and my feet look terrible, is truly truly disheartening. Whenever I called to speak to the manager, she kept cutting me off telling me to come back so that she could fix them. She wouldn't even let me get two words out of my mouth before she would cut me off again, just to repeat herself. Unfortunately, you cannot turn back time, money is not the issue here, it's the fact that I wasted 2 1/2 hours and the fact that I never have time to get out of the house because I am a stay at home mom to two young kids. Thanks for ruining my nails and my toenails, and most of all. Thanks for wasting my time!

Another huge highlight: I was delighted when Crystal washed her hands and asked me to do the same before starting.

I finally got in, as they moved to a new location. I opted for a non gel pedicure and was surprised by the experience. I am used to having my feet soaked prior to service and after reading about the difference. It's more hygienic to do it waterless. Everything lasts longer! Crystal did not service me, but she noticed that I was new and made sure that I was comfortable and enjoyed my experience. This is a black owned business and the ladies were great. The ambiance is still in progress, but it was clean and neat. She makes her own scrub that is available for sale. Parking is ample and it's next door to Ross! I highly recommend this place as they take detailed measures to make sure your feet or hands are manicured to perfection!

After years of shellac and dip powder treatments at larger salons, my nails had become extremely fragile--prone to breakage, brittleness, and even fungal issues from over-drilling and rushed work. Yvonne truly takes her time and approaches nail care with a focus on health, not just aesthetics. Her private studio creates a calm, personalized environment where you never feel rushed. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and attentive, always checking in to make sure you're comfortable and pain-free throughout the process. What stands out most is her commitment to restoring nail health. Instead of masking the damage, she actively works to nourish and strengthen your natural nails. Thanks to her care, I finally feel like my nails are on the path to recovery after what used to be a constant cycle of damage. I highly recommend Yvonne to anyone dealing with nail damage or looking for a more intentional, health-focused nail care experience.
