After living in Houston for 10 years, where my nail tech was the absolute BEST! I found it nearly…read moreimpossible to find a salon in the Austin area that could match that same level of service. And trust me...I looked...I went from nail salon to nail salon, never quite finding "the one." Then one day, I happened to drive past Bamboo Nails & Spa and decided to give them a try. At first glance, they checked all the boxes: clean, friendly, welcoming, and professional. Three years later, they still haven't disappointed me. The service is consistently high-quality and efficient, my nails always look great, and the foot massages seriously cannot be beat. But one of the things I appreciate most is that they have enough staff that there's rarely a wait, and they are always willing to accommodate my last-minute requests, which, if I'm honest happens more often than it probably should. Obviously, I've been gatekeeping this review for a while because it has taken me THREE YEARS to finally write it. ‍ But I have to give credit where credit is due. If you've been searching for a great nail salon in the Austin area, give Bamboo Nails & Spa a try. Trust me--you won't be disappointed.

I came in with some concerns about my…read morenails, and Teresa took the time to explain what the issue was, what could be done to make it better, and what she could do to fix it for now. I really appreciated that she didn't just do my nails she made sure I understood what was going on and how we could move forward. She was patient, knowledgeable, and very detailed with her work. My nails turned out beautiful, and I left feeling much better about them. Thank you, Teresa, for taking care of me!

Went here for the first time for a birthday pedicure treat from my girlfriend. She had a couple of…read moregift certificates given to her by a friend, so we did a couple pedi. We were about 4 minutes after our appointment, and the owner was already calling to ensure we were keeping our appointment. We were actually turning into the parking lot that moment. Great follow-up, just bad timing on our part due to traffic. After a bit of scrutiny, the gift certificates were approved, and we were assigned our pedicurists. Mine was Louie, hers was Lena. Both were very polite and welcoming. I had never had a pedicure before, so I was a bit unsure what to expect. And of course I wore long jeans and not shorts, which increased the degree of difficulty in maneuvering and limited some of the experience. Louie was very professional and gentle. I'm quite a bit ticklish, and we both got a big laugh out of that. I got the hot stone pedicure for $7 more than the classic pedi, and my girlfriend got the Milk and Honey for $13 more. There was quite a bit of upsell involved, not by the pedicurist, but by the manager. In fact, at one point, she dropped the Milk and Honey in my pedicurist's cart, only for me to correct the mistake. She didn't seem too thrilled that we weren't buying more services, which was really the only downer. Between that and the hesitation over the gift certificates, that cost a star. When all was said and done, we got two pedicures. I had to rush to another appointment, so I left my girlfriend there to be picked up on my return. She liked her pedicure and polish, and I liked mine without. My girlfriend bought and tipped on the non-discounted price of the services. I'm not one to be fussed over, but I think they do a good job here. I did check all the sanitary precautions, and they passed on every count. They were meticulous about cleaning their instruments. I did have some temporary cuticle soreness on one toe, but it was gone by the next day without infection. Recommended. Not sure when/if I'll go again, but I'd go here without hesitation.

From a drink to start with, to the bubbles to soak our feet in, to the hot towels and taking care of the excessive calluses. To the tip of my toes, sweet, shiny toenails that are seasonal and matching the dress I am planning to wear to the next event. This was a 1st visit here, and not my usual thing to do, so I felt a bit unexperienced. Nancy and Tammy took their time to carefully explain what the options are. I took their recommendation and went ahead with powder instead of dip, and couldn't be more happy with the flawless results. Nancy is such a sweetheart who gave me a relaxing and somewhat ticklish massage, and then the soul felt pedicure. I was amazed to find my feet glowing and the skin feeling soft! The beautiful Mindy took care of my mom. Mom was all content as her toe issues were addressed and the massage took her troubles away. The experienced Tammy (who runs the place) took great care of my finger nails and who recommended powder over dip for very apparent reasons. I had to wait for her service because she was requested and had appointments, but she's worth the wait! This valuable experience has led me to budget this service in the future, so I can have them more often. I'll definitely come back! I highly recommend their service.

I felt uncomfortable & decide to end my service short, since I felt unsafe & was getting yelled at in from of everyone in the salon. I think what upset her the most is that the man came over & showed her what she had done & she just couldn't be wrong. She later follows me to the front desk & says she will take video & pictures of me so I pulled out my phone & took a video of her crashing out. Everyone makes mistakes but yelling at a paying customer who asked nicely is the reason why I will never go to a salon ever again & I got my esthetician license to not endure this type of unprofessional behavior. S/o to the man for sticking up for me though

I don't need fancy drinks or snacks. What I do need is someone who is detail-oriented. Someone who actually trims cuticles instead of sanding them down like a piece of furniture. Someone who genuinely cares about their work. And that's exactly what I got. Vivian and Steven delivered a true, old-school manicure--the kind that's getting harder and harder to find. My nails still look amazing, and not because they drowned them in oil to hide rough work. No shortcuts here. They took the time to properly remove cuticles the right way--the real way. I absolutely love that "let me do this right" energy instead of the rushed, next-customer mentality you see everywhere else. Safe to say, I'll definitely be back. Thank you, Vivian and Steven!
