After lots of research, I felt good enough about The Ten Spot to give it a try before heading out of town for an event. Unfortunately, my visit wasn't a 10 and I'm not sure I'll give it another go. I booked (gel mani + advanced nail art - full set + quickie pedi) online, which should have been simple enough but the system wouldn't allow me to book my services together so I had to book each one separately. Day of, the manicurist calls 2 hours before my appointment saying I can come in now if that's okay. Not really what I wanted but I obliged. I was shocked at the salon being empty, as it was a Saturday afternoon. I received a blah hello upon entry and was immediately met by the person I'd booked. I should have known from the reviews that my entrance wouldn't be met with great hospitality. I'll skip the minor details and just say that after getting my pedicure, I was directed to the manicure station and given colors to choose from. I match the toe polish color and ask for a glitter polish I saw. Then ask the manicurist if she can do encapsulated glitter and show her an inspo pic. She says "well yes, but no because we don't have time. They just sent that other girl home and gave me her client. If they didn't send her home we would have had time. We can do it next time." This left me to tell her to do the design she had time for. I left with no designs. I don't at all consider a different color on 2 nails a design worth $25. Thankfully, she removed that from my bill without me prompting. But that didn't go without her assuming I would be leaving a gratuity, when she asked me if I could pay the gratuity via Venmo upon telling me the total. I miss 1990s customer service. Giving a 3 because it was a relatively clean environment and my nails are presentable, just had my mind set on a different look and experience. read more

I really wanted to love The Ten Spot because I'm always on the lookout for a great natural nail place. I walked in with high hopes. Parking was a breeze; the shop was bright, cheerful, and neat as a pin; and the receptionist was super-welcoming. My friend was also excited because she opted for gel nails and was amazed at their vast color selection. Unfortunately, both of our pedicures were disappointing. Neither tech ever introduced themselves and mine seemed put out from the jump. She did the most cursory pedi of my life with zero callus removal and literally 20 seconds of "massage" that involved her lightly brushing her knuckles against my arch. She seemed way more interested in the Netflix show she was watching than delivering what was promised, which meant she completed a 45 minute service in 20 minutes. I won't give a blow-by-blow for my friend, but she did yell "ouch!" when her tech was too aggressive with trimming and ended up limping out of the store. If anyone has a suggestion for a standout tech at The Ten Spot, I'll go back for the ease and ambience. Otherwise, I'm still on the hunt for a great acrylic-free nail salon. read more

The decor/atmosphere here is Uber clean and fresh. It feels invigorating to walk in and see all the modern orange pops of color. Special note: they have wine here! You could get a mani pedi and get some down time with a glass of vino. Word is they can also do private wine tasting events here too ;) Service used - brow wax and tint with Kassandra Parking - yes; I parked behind the building which leads directly into Ten Spot Bathroom - yes there's one available Service result - amazing. I showed kassandra what I was going for with old pictures of myself. My previous brow girl kinda did her own thing and thinned out my brows and shaped them more round than angled :( Kassandra is re-shaping them to go back to the angled, thick brow I like. I love that she took the time to listen, look at the picture, and asked me how dark I wanted to go (she showed me my brows in a mirror twice to see what deep brown I wanted). Clean, fast, professional and well done. I'll be back. Thank you! read more

There's a special thing going on at the Ten Spot. It's more than your typical nail and beauty salon. First, the salon is gorgeous. When you walk in, you can't help but notice the bold beautiful colors and natural sunlight that fills the space. This is equally matched by the friendliness of all the staff the moment you walk in the door. Secondly, the place is clean...clinically clean and it shows. Enjoy your services with the utmost confidence of cleanliness. I love getting a good mani/pedi and the Ten Spot has lasted the longest for me! Also, it looks amazing! If you are a mani/pedi girl like me, give their membership a try. A few options are offered, but you can get your usual services covered along with discounts on others. The salon also offers Boxt wine (give it a try, it's good!) and other refreshments to enhance your overall experience. To any fellas reading this: give this place a try! They have services for you too. Need a place for the the tween/teen in your life, the Ten Spot is it. My daughter jumps at the chance to go with me to get her nails done. The bottom line: the Ten Spot is a place for everyone to feel LIKE A TEN! read more

Jasmin does excellent waxing! Perfectionism. Had a very good experience. Will be booking again.

I had a great quickie pedicure at The Ten Spot. I liked that they used separate soak basins for the pedicure so it's more hygienic (instead of the ones that are part of the chair). The polish was expertly done and they were gentle with my cuticles. You have a choice of a foot scrub or callus removal with the quickie, and I chose the scrub because I'm more of an outdoorsy person. It was really relaxing and I'd definitely go again. read more

This place is a gem. I have had a difficult time finding a good spot for a pedicure that is comfortable, done well, and makes me feel at home. This is the spot! (The ten spot! - Har har!) From the moment I entered, I was greeted with cheerful staff and a clean, bright, well-designed interior. The manager is really wonderful, and everyone I spoke to on staff was kind and professional. I was seated for my pedi, and immediately I was offered a choice of drinks. The star of the show for drinks are the boxed wines, which are not your college self's Franzia. These are good quality, and they are happy to let you try as many as you would like. They have one for every taste. Long gone are the days are drinking cheap knock off bubbly that comes from a shady back room while someone does your toes. Ten Spot is hooking you up with the good stuff. My technician was careful and attentive with my pedicure. I had a broken toe nail, and she worked to repair it (although it ended up breaking again later, major A for effort there). My paint job looked perfect, and it held up well. I mean, I am not embarrassed to show my toes, and it's been a month now. It is on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for. I plan to return to try some more of their services. read more

The Ten Spot just opened five months ago. It's a franchise based out of Canada. The entrance is in the back and parking was ample. I got my very first lash lift. A lash lift normally costs $80, but I had a one-time coupon. Just like a hair perm I received over two decades ago, I was instructed not to get my lashes wet for twenty four hours unless it was saline water. Kassandra was a perfectionist. First she fitted my short lashes to a rod, then she glued my lashes, added perm solution for eight minutes, removed the perm solution with a q-tip, added neutralizer, and then added a couple drops of saline for the stinginess. The entire process took about half an hour. The lash lift should last six to eight weeks, the cycle for lashes to fall and grow back. The owner, Jennifer, was really helpful in answering all of my questions. What I'm most excited about is their signature clean line of nail polish called The Ten Spot. They don't carry the clean lines of Opi or Essie but I look forward to trying out The Ten Spot nail polish in the future. I noticed they also offer kid manicures and pedicures so I can bring my "niece" (family friend) next time. The Ten Spot is the only salon I know of in North Austin that carries clean nail polish. It's ten (chemicals) free and on par with Opi's Nature Strong and Eleve nail polishes. They also sell a Canadian brand called Kaia Naturals, a clean line of deodorant carried by The Detox Market. read more

Quick update since it's now been over 12 weeks since my lash lift incident.. it's been quite a while and my lashes still are not the same. I've had full and thick lashes my whole life, and unfortunately the over-processing has caused them to now be quite thin and sparse. The "Jerry curl" finally is gone, but the damage is done. So much so, that I can no longer get lash lifts, and have had to use a VERY expensive growth serum to rebuild my lashes. While I am grateful they did refund me for the treatment, the fact I had to pay out of pocket almost $150 for lash rebuilding products, and then not get lash lifts for an extended period (FOUR MONTHS), is enough for me to not return. They did offer me their expensive lash serum at a whopping 10% off, which was not appropriate considering the damage done. read more

I went to The Ten Spot for an eyebrow and eyelash tint and will absolutely be going back. I've never had my lashes or brows done professionally before so I decided to treat myself and I'm so glad I did. When I got there, it wasn't super busy so Jennifer, the owner, was able to give me a quick tour of the salon before my appointment. The facility is so nice and clean and I felt so glamorous just being there. They offer so many services, I seriously want to try them all. When it comes to the actual service, my technician, Madison, was awesome! Before starting, she asked me what I was looking for so she could tailor the service specifically to me and my goals. Throughout the service, she explained exactly what she was doing for each step which I really appreciated since it was a new experience for me. My lashes and brows turned out so good too! It's such a great feeling having them ready to go without having to add any makeup. I will definitely be back for a touch up and to try some of the other services. COVID Precautions: All employees and customers were wearing masks. The facility in general is super clean, they even have a dedicated cleaning area for all their equipment to ensure sanitation is top notch. read more

Super friendly staff, great service, and a clean atmosphere. Went to the Ten spot on a Thursday, booked an appointment by calling ahead and they were able to squeeze me in. Booking is also available online. Choose the service of a pedicure and was greeted with a choice of drink. Wide selection of coffee, wine, and tea. Three different brands of nail polish OPI, Essie, and their own with tons to colors to choose from. They currently offer a ton of different services from nails to waxing and will continue to add other offerings according to the owner. read more

My first visit to the Ten Spot in Austin. Overall my nails turned out fantastic! I left my nail girl of 4 years in Vegas so I was certain no one could replace her. My tech at Ten Spot, Cheyenne, was incredibly good. I'm impressed by the cleanliness of the salon. I also love that they sterilize everything and don't reuse nail files. I would love to go back but I do agree with other reviews that the cost is too high. I typically pay $50 for the equivalent of what I received at the Ten Spot. I left off one star. I felt my nail tech could have taken the time to introduce herself and establish a client/tech connection. read more

The Ten Spot - Gel overlay with design - Nail Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

A beautiful, bright, colorful place for mani/pedi and other services. I brought my mom here for her birthday for pedicures. Everyone was super nice. They have wine and other drinks available for you while you are getting treated. I will say that I feel like it was overpriced for the amount that I paid... It says online the full pedicure is a 45-55 min experience and we really only were treated for about 25-30 min. The rest of the time was just my nails drying a little bit, which I do not think should be included in this time. It felt kind of like I was cheated of that time, did not feel like the experience was worth the money I paid for it. Wish it wasn't this way, because I loved everything else about the place, but unfortunately will not be back. read more

Super disappointed because I had my bachelorette party there and they promised me that I could get my hands done with acrylic and I paid for it and then they said they didn't have time for me and they offered me shellac and said it was on the house and then lied and then charged me later. I felt rushed with all my friends there. They said that they had booked another person after me but no one showed up. I definitely don't recommend this place. read more

I got my lashes lifted and tinted, and I love it. they turned out super be and natura, just as I expected. Jasmin did a great job ! The shop is really pretty and clean, I just felt great and relaxe. read more

Not your traditional nail salon. The Ten Spot is more of a "me time" bar, a place to step in and pamper yourself before you get back out to the hustle and bustle of the day. I love the open concept yet one on one service. It's small so it's easy to social distance. The added perks of wine or sparkling water add flare. The patience and attention the staff provides is top tier. The prices are average but they offer 3 different membership option which cut the price down significantly. I had a pedicure by Rashawn. She continuously asked about my comfort and satisfaction. She let me know what products she was using and why. Most times I go for a pedicure and the massage is lacking. Rashawn put some elbow grease into my calf and foot massages. I love the Ten Spot nail colors and was pleased with my day visit with friends. I was able to rebook for 2 weeks out and I can't wait to return. The best thing about this place is it's diversity. They don't just have one token black girl they have several working. Everyone is professional they made sure I had a pleasant visit. read more

I got my lashes lifted and tinted and LOVED IT. they look so good and the process was so easy. everyone was so nice I highly recommen!

As I mentioned to the owner, Jenn, when she & I were chatting -- I have NO idea why I waited so long to try this place! I walked in and after being greeted cheerfully, I immediately noticed the decor & atmosphere was so inviting and so tastefully done. I came for a pedi & a gel polish removal, and Rashana took such good care of me while I drank my delicious Boxt Rosé. I truly appreciated how they use clean products, including polish. There is parking in the back and they offer plenty of other services including waxing, which I will be trying in the very near future. Clean, fast, friendly, professional & high quality work -- I highly recommend this place! read more

The Ten Spot is my new favorite mani pedi place in all of Austin! Jennifer was so gracious and we had such a great time. The atmosphere is incredible. Gorgeous, clean, bright, it feels more like a chic bar than a nail salon and it doesn't have that nail salon smell. Love all the windows and the overall vibe. And most importantly, my manicure stayed on for ONE FULL WEEK. Srsly. I got it last Friday afternoon and I went to a business meeting this morning confident in my nails. Amazing! read more

I threw my sister's 40th birthday party here and it was so much fun! We all got great manicures, a few people got mini-facials, and we loved the space and the nail techs. They organized a mimosa bar, coffee and pastries for our event. Highly recommend! read more

Never had an eyebrow shaping wax before today and was admittedly a little skeptical. Now I'm a convert! It makes even 50 year old men's eyebrows like mine look great. The location is a little hard to find on the backside of the retail center but is bright clean and the staff is friendly and great. Shout-out to Kassandra who took care of me. She was very professional, friendly, and did a fantastic job! read more

Love this place! My daughter and I went on the recommendation of a friend back in November. It's bright, cheery, and sparkly clean. The nail techs were great at suggesting just the right color I was looking for to wear to a wedding. My daughter loved the treatment and decided to have her birthday celebration there. We worked with the owner, Jennifer, to set up a wonderful experience for 8 girls. We had the place to ourselves and 3 techs working on the girls in shifts. Jennifer supplied beverages and we brought snacks. We had music picked out by the birthday girl and TVs playing her favorite shows. The techs used this cool new stamping technique to personalize each girls mani. It was a great time celebrating my daughter's birthday. We will definitely be back. read more

Worst pedicure ever. it's extremely uncomfortable and not relaxing at all. I regret spending $80.

I loved my time at this Beauty Bar! Lived my facials, lash tint & lift, and pedicure. They make you feel like a 10 no matter what you have done. Jennifer & all the ladies are so fun. Can't wait for my next visit. Please give them a try you will love it! read more

This review is specifically for Jasmine and her waxing services. I hadn't had my brows done in years and had only gone to one person for a decade, so was quite nervous to try someone new. Jasmine was so great, painless and walked out with clean and natural looking eyebrows! read more

What a bright inviting friendly place. Was so impressed with the cleanliness and the attention to detail. Friendly greeting upon arrival and offered beverages. Ashley was excellent and took special care of my toes! Great pedicure. Can highly recommend! read more

Was looking for a facial and brow tint last minute on a Sunday and this place had great flexibility for me. I was blown away at the sweet energy from all staff and received one of my most relaxing facials to date from mikayla! She recommended a different color than I normally do my brows, but guess what... she was right! They are way better. Highly recommend this new spot. Great prices, for even better service! read more

First vist was awesome. Had eyebrows and nails done and both were great. Eagerly signed up for a membership. This visit, reception was ok (no wine offer, wasn't sure of my service), and nail tech felt rushed. She was amazing but I felt like she didn't get enough time. Also, I was offered FAR fewer choices for gel polish than on my previous visit (2 rings, instead of 5, by the desk staff, not my tech). Was excited but now may need to reconsider. read more

If I could I would rate this place 10 stars. The owner, Jennifer is super sweet and runs a beautiful, clean business. You feel like a star every time you go in. And my girl Jasmin is the BEST! She keeps me looking like a TEN!!! She is very knowledgeable and professional while simultaneously putting you at ease. If you haven't been. You are missing out! read more

This place is so great! I had an awesome eyebrow waxing experience - it was so clean and I didn't experience any post-wax breakouts.

This place is such a treat, and I can't wait to go back! read more

I came in to get my SNS/dip removed because my nails have gotten so brittle. Not only did Leti take off the SNS gently and efficiently without hurting me, she educated me that a nail salon should never wear your nails down to be so brittle. She showed me how they remove product to keep your nails healthy, and how their application methods keep your nails stronger. I'll definitely be coming back to get their gel overlay! Their manager, Jennifer, is also so sweet and you can tell she really cares about the community she's creating. read more

Soooooo clean and such good service! Definitely my new nail spot. Also the other reviews are right on- the wine they serve is really good!
