    My feet looked a mess before, y'all.
    Kerston B.

    I came to SA for the Tyler conference. I decided to treat myself to a late Mother's Day present and get a pedicure. I'm so glad I found Prose. It's beautiful! It's soothing and relaxing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Emily was the best and deserves all of the accolades![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This is the best pedicure I have ever had in my life. App of the young, beautiful ladies are detailed and very professional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was greeted with smiles, a cold cup of water, and the best service ever.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Y'all come and bring a nail salon to GA!!!!!

    Barely cut cuticles for  $45!!
    Jeimy T.

    I went today with my friend. He got a manicure and I got a pedicure. I don't know the pricing because is no on their website. I got basic pedicure with regular nail polish he got the basic manicure clear polish. He said he paid $100 even though when I called she said it was $35 for manicure $45 for pedicure. They didn't even put lotion in his hands. I know yall need to pay the rent on that place but come on! Transparency is honesty and it seems they trying so hard to get people to pay more.

    See my Google review for complete review details

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Booked an appt at 10:22am to be done during my lunch for an Express Mani for 1pm. Quoted 25/30 min for the service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I have my natural nails no polish or anything on them. As well as an appt for gel for my friend and 1:15pm, quoted 30 min for service time. (I called to make sure) Checked in no later than 1:05. MY Service did not start until EXACTLY 1:30pm. While my friends started at 1:10pm. My service was only 20 min long and phots attached to show not even of good quality. Shapes are off and cuticles are messy. Was charged $15 for my service to be done half a** and paid for my friend who was charged a Gel removal for $10 since that was all that was accomplished during our WHOLE HOUR for lunch. Had to order a pizza from across to street so we could eat at our desks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When asked why i was charged more for less work the front desk girl said "well i didn't book the appts i was just told to watch the books" totally disregarding the lack of service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friend now has to return AFTER WORK to finish a job that wasn't completed in the first place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I will not return although given an option to because there was no sense of urgency or compassion for starting late and for not being able to complete the original service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Employees also were discussing how another customer did not tip in FRONT of other customers with no regard on how unprofessional that is.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did NOT tip, a tip is something that is earned with either great service or great work. Neither was provided.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also, would like to mention, a discount was not offered, although they knew we work in the tower. Not that it would have made a major difference, but it would have shown effort, something they lacked. Now, i do, however, have a few questions, 1) is the service provided one you would accept for a family/friend to receive? 2)would you tip on service that you did not book ? That was actually below the standard to which you BOOKED for? 3) why accept bookings if you do not honor them? 4) why are "express" options offered if they aren't given? (Took us mentioning we had to be out by 1:50 pm so we could pick up our pizza and make it to work on time to get a pep in their step. Which is when i was offered to come back) 5) if i was 30min late, would THAT have been acceptable? 6) does having a customer return AFTER their work day seem like good business? I rarely write reviews and i also rarely get my nails done but this is unacceptable. Express mani with "quick & efficient nail care" was not honored.

    hard gel w design
    Abigail F.

    angie was so detail orientated and did the best job shaping and trimming the nails. i did hard gel w a design. so well priced as well

    My nail that peeled back halfway the day after getting them done.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came with a group during a bachelorette trip and the customer service was great but our nails weren't.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They LOOKED beautiful until the day after getting them. I got Gel X on my real nails while the rest of the group got acrylics. One of my fingers by the next morning had started peeling and the rest had followed suit and there are now 3 layers to my nails. Another girl had 2 of her toe nails pop off by the 2nd day. And everyone had at least one nail pop off by the first week. I paid over 160$ including the tip. The place I go to back home costs me less than 100$ to get acrylics and powder and that also includes tip. The price to quality ratio is way off at this place if I'm being honest!

    I had a mimosa while getting my nails done!
    Jessika C.

    Awesome nail service! I got a hard gel nail service on my natural nails. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tech was fantastic, explaining every step as she worked.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The environment was clean and welcoming. If I'm ever in San Antonio, I'll definitely book again!

    Raven Q.

    Did an amazing job but my right thumb is so crooked because the lady kept getting distracted by another worker and talking drama. I paid $80 for this and I walk out with a crooked nail. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall great entertainment but maybe pay more attention because she missed a few spots while painting my nails.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Prose nails is the place to go. Not only is prose amazing, each and every one of their staff members is fun to talk to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Most of their staff is good at nail art. They all do fantastic jobs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My go to girl is Leah w/ the short hair. Shes the right level of perfectionist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She can take a little while but she'll never do you wrong. I've never had Gel X before going to prose, and now I'm not too sure I'll ever go back! Gel x is tiers above acrylic.

    Amazing service Love the hard gel technique they offer, I've officially converted from acrylic Highly recommend Giselle and Angie

    Regular manicure
    L S.

    I went in with my nails looking absolutely terrible and I left with a gorgeous manicure! I'm sad I live out of town or I'd visit this place a weekly. Excellent job & a clean place!

    Prose entrance

    Super cute find while Visiting San Antonio Relaxing environment Easy to walk to from hotel

    This was manicured was made on Friday feb 21 and today Sunday this is how it looks.

    The most expensive regula manicure I've ever had, I travel a lot and get to compare with other places and I felt very disappointed, they charged me $20 to remove my old gel. The girl who did my Manicure was very sweet and nice but she didn't know how to paint well my nails and I had to guide her, very bad and expensive regula manicure.

    The service was up and down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tech was on and off her phone a lot, and at first, she seemed a little unenthusiastic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But by the end, she really warmed up and did a okay job on my nails. Overall, I'm happy with how they turned out.

    had an incredibly frustrating visit with my sister. While the staff were nice, the experience was…read moredisorganized and lacked basic professionalism. Although we were told there would be a 15-minute wait, I ended up sitting in the chair for an hour before my pedicure began, as the staff chose to start on my sister's service first. My sister waited about 20 minutes to start, but her experience was just as disappointing; she was left sitting for 25 minutes after her treatment before someone finally came to remove the paraffin wax. My own service was handled just as poorly. The owner started on my nails, but abandoned me mid-service because a new customer walked in and she wanted to take that client instead. I was handed off to another technician who spent the entire time making personal phone calls. To make matters worse, she began filing my nails *after* the shellac had already been applied, which left pieces of polish missing from the tips. When I explained that the service was not properly finished and I did not expect to be there this long, the owner still expected me to pay $70 for the job. My sister's experience was equally bad. She paid $75 for a pedicure performed by an untrained staff member who didn't know how to properly handle the paraffin wax or provide a massage, and the polish on her toes is already separating. Overall, the pricing is not consistent with the quality of service. From the poor cuticle and callus work to the clear priority of chasing new money over finishing existing work, it was an unprofessional experience. I will not be returning. I wish it was a better experience because the people were genuinely nice but I am paying for service after all.

    UPDATE 3/15: They were finally able to get me in and apologized but didn't offer any discount or…read moreanything for the inconvenience. I still payed $75. She asked if I would remove the review but yelp doesn't let you without one of the their reasons selected and I wasn't offered any type of discount or anything so it wouldn't let me remove it. I called and made an appointment at 6:30pm for a pedicure on 3/12/2026, the person said that was the time I would be seen because she has another appointment at 6pm, I booked it and arrived 10 minutes early. I sat there until 8pm and was never taken care of because the salon was too busy. At 8:15, a woman was finally able to start my pedicure but didn't know how to perform the service. I ended up leaving in tears because this was exhausting and disappointing to experience. Why schedule an appointment if you're not going to honor the time slot or plan accordingly? I sat for 2 hours and never even got to get a pedicure.
