Kenny was my nail tech and he did an amazing job! His 24 years of experience truly shows. He was swift and made everything look so effortless. He was also very kind and made my first nail experience a great one I was also checked in and seated with Kenny in under 10 minutes (I was 10 minutes early for my appointment) and was out within an hour. It was a super relaxing experience and I would definitely go again! read more

I called ahead the day before to make an appointment with no specific tech because i saw other reviews and nail pictures and figured hopefully every tech was great. Well this was not the case when I went in, now i know to definitely do my research in advance. The lady who did my nails (middle aged, didn't catch her name.) did honestly a horrific job and I was so so so frustrated after walking out of the appointment. Mind you, this is the day before Valentines Day and i was so excited to get classy, chic, and simple french tip nails!! I actually saw another recent reviewer also have the EXACT same thing happen to her. I asked for SNS dip french tips... not a hard ask. She seemed really unsure the whole time, and listen i am not a nail tech but everything she was doing was definitely not right... she like dipped my fingers in the dip painted acrylic polish over them without curing and then attempted to do the french tips with white dip powder and then used remover to wipe it all off and she was like oh just making sure (honestly i was confused so i tried to trust the process) so that was odd and frustrating and she proceeds to redo the nails by free painting the french tips and this is where everything went horrible. When shaping my nail she made them so crooked and honestly she was moving fast i think to distract me and not have me look at them too long because once i took the final look after they were done i was mortified. My nails are going in different directions, some are entirely different shapes, lengths, widths- like come on what the heck bro?! Cherry on top was since the tips were hand painted they looked so bad and amateur and she messed them up and had to keep redoing them. Also i asked for short almond, some look stiletto. Bonus points: her telling me i had "really small fingers", "really short fingers" and then laughing and saying "haha they are crooked i am sorry. I won't charge you for that i am sorry its ok though." Yeah my fingers aren't crooked your work is and to be quite honest I wish I was fully refunded. They asked if i would come in later so they could fix them as if I wanted to be in that salon any longer than the TWO HOURS i spent getting these nails done, two hours for botched nails. I was busy the rest of my day and have plans all day on valentines, kind of defeats the entire purpose. Im so upset so fair warning to anyone considering SNS dip french tips!!! read more

My first visit here I was really excited to finally find a good nail salon after moving here from Frisco. I called and made an appointment for a gel pedi and French dip manicure. The guy did a phenomenal job on my nails but I got told they didn't have time for a pedicure? What? I drove 45 minutes to visit this specific salon and set the appointment for both, so they obliged and did my pedicure which I appreciated. I found it very odd though because I confirmed again when I walked in what I was getting done, nails and toes. My second visit I called ahead and made an appointment, mentioned I would like the same guy or someone who can do French dip. They did my pedi first and started removing my dip nails and then moved me to the table for nails. The nail tech didn't know what she was doing, the white powder tip part she wasn't using a template or able to free dip it to where the nail had the natural smile line. White line was crooked and straight across very thick. She said she was planning to paint over the dip powder with gel to get the lines right? That's not what I came here for or how this is done. She basically gave up and said she couldn't do my nails and it was too late to fix so I got sent home with some horrid looking nails and was asked to come back the next day... The next day I call ahead since I had mentioned I could be there at 6 the night before I let them know I could come at 430 and wanted to again double check someone was available to fix doing a dip French and not the same girl I had last night. I go in, get told my appointment was at 6 but I had called ahead and have a text confirmation for 430. Apparently a new girl helped me... Ended up waiting until 5 before the lady who did my pedi the night before offered to take off my nails. Photos were taken of the bad set of nails, that's how you know it's bad. Then I get to Steve. Steve wanted to do acrylic, said they couldn't do dip with tips, which isn't true in Frisco. I've done dip at home, I know the process. But Steve wanted to make me happy and forged on with dip since I didn't want long nails it's easier to blend I guess? Anyways, we both are chatting about the white powder looking like off and he told me they didn't have the right dip powder that was finer. Well some other dude plops a whole pint of proper French dip powder after we had done all the white parts. Because the powder wasn't right, it wasn't drying. So he removed and started putting on the new power and at that point offered to completely start over if I had time. I just wanted what I came here for but at this point I was like whatever I just wanted it done properly. Not with bad/wrong powder. By the time we got the 2nd set off I just told him to go ahead and do acrylic bc at this point I'm worried they truly cannot do dip and I have a long drive home. Steve kept his promise and got them done in 30 min so I could get home, they look good but not as natural as dip. So $70 later, 2 trips totaling 3 hour of driving I got French acrylics that look good. But it's also more expensive for acrylics ... so paid more for what I didn't want. Would I recommend anyone to get dip there? Absolutely not. Eric is really good though even with dip. Steve is solid for French acrylics. The tall lady that does pedicures is great too. Will I be going back? Nope probably not . I would love to see Steve or Eric but I just can't trust the way this place operates. Which is really unfortunate because I wanted to love this place but too many issues every time. I tip each tech $20 so every time $40 tip plus overpaid for nails I didn't ask for. read more

No kidding, I think this was the best nail salon experience I've ever been to and that's saying a lot. Usually an average experience for me at a nail salon = waiting a long time for a seat (if you didn't have a reservation), high prices, uneven acrylic, and spending at least 1.5 hours there. When I got there, I immediately got seated and the staff took care of me. Lisa did an amazing job, super clean. She literally got me in and out of the salon in 30 minutes which is insane. I still can't believe they only charged me $35. They're currently doing 30% off until June 25!!! Run, don't walk!!! read more

I enjoyed my visit here at Trendy Nails. I showed them the picture I wanted and they were able to replicate it exactly. They're extremely busy on weekdays in the evening. I went in with an appointment for 6pm and all the nail stylists were all busy. Even though they closed at 7:30 they were still taking people in at 7 with all the stylist busy. I like their commitment to servicing their customers. And I like that my stylist didn't want me to leave until I was happy with my nails. Will be coming back for my nails again. read more

Horrible experience! I went in to get my nails done and just water a dip manicure. They said my nails were to short I needed a set. I was fine but told the lady I would like them short she kept trying to keep them long. I should her a picture of the nails I liked and they were round. All of my nails are square. Another lady stepped in and made them look some what better but still not at all what I wanted!! When I got home I looked at the receipt and they charged $5 for cutting my nails? And $10 for chrome which I did not get at all!! Absolutely the worst! Counting down the days for these to get redone. read more

Best pedicure I have ever had! Nice long leg & foot massage & I truly felt pampered. My new go to place!!

Something about me is my nails are always done and I'm always on the lookout for a good nail spot. This was the BEST nail salon I've been to in the area and I've been to a few. I called on my way to make sure I could be serviced and they said yes. I got there and was immediately helped. The man doing my nails was taking his time and you could tell he genuinely cared. I changed the color and asked for an adjustment on my nails and was immediately given such when in other salons there would be an argument or snarky comment. Overall, amazing service, kind staff and such a clean, nice environment. It cost about $80 for a full set not including my tip and I'll definitely be back!! read more

I walked in on a rainy Sunday afternoon for a gel manicure and was helped right away without an appointment. The person who did my nails was quiet and efficient. They were attentive to what I wanted - found the brown color gel I was looking for when I couldn't, cut my nails and round just like I asked I liked to shop itself too! Very bright, fairly modern and clean. Overall very happy with my experience! read more

Trendy Nails Spa - Gel manicure - Waxing Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

i've already made a detailed review on google so I'm copying here as well so everyone is aware of the owner! Ive never written a review before but the interaction I experienced today needs to be shared. I have come here multiple times and my experience has always been pleasant and I loved how close I was to the salon. However today I came in to fix my nails that I had gotten done the previous day. I requested they be cut down a little shorter and different polish, per my jobs request. I never once asked for a refund, never once blamed the tech. I took full responsibility of the situation and made it known it was my fault. All I asked for was a simple fix. Yet the manager spent 30 minutes berating me, yelling at me, talking over me in front of everyone. This interaction brought me to tears. The way I was spoken to over an obvious misunderstanding is absolutely unacceptable. The manager was reluctant to help me and after all of that still charged me $25 in addition to the $70 I spent on my fill the previous day. The last thing the manager told me was "good don't come back" after I said he lost a customer. I find it insane that after that entire interaction I was not offered a FULL REFUND. Nobody should be spoken to this way! Again, I really loved this place and I'm so upset and hurt by how I was treated. I did not get loud or disrespectful with him NOT ONCE. Thank God there were kind women there who sat with me and stood up for me when I was a mess crying. Please do better and treat people with patience and kindness. In response to this review, the owner responded with blatant lies about me and my previous visits instead of taking accountability for the disturbing behavior he displayed. Here is my second review in response to that! Since it will not allow me write another review for this salon with my previous email I am now responding to the blatant lies being told by the owner in response to my review with a separate email. i have been to your salon a total of THREE TIMES. the first time i got a simple red french tip and my toes done. i loved the experience i had so i came back and got a simple white french tip. i see the pictures for proof. NONE of these visits did i ever spend 30 minutes debating what color i wanted this is a complete lie from the owner. when i came in for a fill the third time i wanted something super natural and simple. i showed the tech a picture (which i have also provided the picture i showed both the tech and owner) of the inspo i had and she picked out 5 different shades for me to try out and i got to pick out which one i liked. i thought this was so sweet and accommodating of her to go out of her way to provide great service for me, however i never once made it over complicated or said show me all your options. the tech did this on her own, which i commend. i've been getting my nails done for years and i've always given an inspo pic to the tech and it's never been an issue EVER. the day i came into the salon to get my nails cut down and a color change i was trying to explain this to the owner after he gave me the color wheel. i understand there was a language barrier and i was being more than enough patient explaining to him the colors shown to me by the tech yesterday weren't on the color wheel until the owner started yelling at me and growing extremely irritated immediately. that is when i said this conversation is not productive can i please speak with SOMEONE ELSE. two of your staff members came to speak to me and i interacted with them until i was finally given service. the BLATANT lies being told by the owner in response to my very upsetting review is seriously disgusting and goes against everything a business should stand for. the owner needs to take serious accountability and some better training. i know the owner will read this and most likely respond so reply again with more lies i will continue to call out your ugly behavior. read more

Very disappointed with this place. I called and spoke to someone over the phone. I'm a male and requested a male to do my pedicure. They said yes and it was not a problem. When my sister and I showed up for our appointments the sat me down and I asked again and said I just want to make sure a male does my pedicure. Again they said ok. 3 min later someone walked up to me a said males don't do male pedicures. I explained and said that I had requested one over the phone before making the appointment. They said that they don't know who said they would when in fact they didn't. My sister had already started her manicure but due to this inconvenience we decided to go elsewhere. They not only lost one customer they lost two customers. They should give the right information before making someone show up for their appointment. They had like 5 male techs servicing other customers. Not sure why they won't allow male techs to service males. read more

I called to make sure it was okay to come in for a mani/pedi because I would get there later than normal and they said no problem. They did both at the same time which is not my fave, but it wad late so no problem. The salon smells like cig smoke and laundry. My biggest problem is my two nail techs were talking about me the entire time. How do I know, they did not try to cover it up. They were pointing to my short nails and my skin condition. They were rude, short, and pushy. I have psoriasis with red spots on my leg, but never have I been made to feel so uncomfortable in a salon. This was my first and last time here. The owners should be ashamed of the way their techs treated people. At the end they asked if everything was okay and I said no. They were shocked because I called him out. He should be ashamed of his or her employees. read more

Decent service and staff is generally polite, nails were nice and my tech was patient but they are neglectful to potential allergies and cross contamination. Used unsanitary tools on me. A few hours after started having a terrible reaction, cuticles are swollen, red, bumpy and itchy. Went in immediately the next morning when they opened and they refused to give me a refund. They offered to redo them but I just wanted to get them off and my money back as I had not even had them for 24 hours before being in so much pain. Had to remove them myself at home. read more

I've been 4 or 5 times now. They are friendly. They do nice work. Online booking is fairly easy but until you get a confirmation you aren't 100% sure you have an appointment. Check in is easy. Service is good. It's well maintained. It's pricey. They are not fast. If you do an extended or up service pedicure for massage benefits just know it's not going to be actual leg massage techniques. After 3 appointments for dip powder nails applications -- each time tended to crack/break within a week. Generally, I think you'll be happy enough with the experience. Not the best. Not the worst. If they'd fix a few things snd lower prices it would be almost perfect. read more

I went in for a removal, my nails look very rough. I still have residue from the acetone on my hands. I told her it hurts and she still kept going. She only cut my nails and barely buffed them. The worst removal ever. I won't ever come back here. I've been doing them here for the past year. Today, I had the worst experience and the lady that removed them was VERY RUDE. Used the drill on my nails to remove the gel and I still have drill marks on my nails and it very rough and painful. It hurts. Very unprofessional of her. I told her there were no paper towels and she just looked at me wiping my hand on my pants as she proceeds to hand me my receipt to pay $15. This removal wasn't even worth the $15 I paid. I hope the owner sees this and refund me back my $15 because the job was not completed. 0/10 do not recommend. read more

I have been to trendy nails about four times. This past time will be the last time I will be going there. I went there to get a gel manicure. The last three gel manicures I have gotten from this establishment have been pretty decent. However, my last gel manicure did not go so well. Tom, the manicurist who did my nails, made one of my fingers bleed. He was pushing back and cleaning the cuticle area when it started to sting. My cuticle was red, but no blood just yet. So I, stupidly, let Tom continue to do my nails. After my nails were filed and buffed, I went to the sink to wash my hands. I noticed that my cuticle was bright red with blood. I came back to the table expecting Tom to say something. He did not. Tom continued to work on my nails. I could tell he wanted me out of there as quickly as possible. When my nails were done, he gave me the receipt and sprinted to the back of the spa. My nails came out okay, I could tell he was rushing based off the inconsistency of the polish and some parts of my nails being a different shape than others. I paid for the service. I should've advocated for myself more, but I am new to getting my nails done and I would feel guilty being rude to service industry workers. I will not be returning. read more
