Top Reviews about 8 Nail Salons in Temple, TX (Part 2)

Kaitlyn Hayes let me start by saying I NEVER leave reviews (this is probably the 1st). I just got done with my appointment maybe 10 mins ago and couldn’t not leave a review. I should’ve got the name of the nail tech but slipped my mind. She was amazing though, so friendly and really took her time making sure everything was perfect. When she started painting one nail we both noticed the color wasn’t really what I was looking for and she swatched at least 3 other colors until we found the right one. She was incredibly polite and patient. Next thing, the prices!!?? I can’t remember the last time i got a fresh set of acrylics for $40 not including tip. I couldn’t believe how reasonably priced the service was. Definitely worth the 50% tip. 10/10 recommend this place!!

Alisa Hurkman I have not had my nails done in years. I am so happy how beautiful they turned out! Thank you Kim Nguyen! This red is just gorgeous! If you want your nails done here, please make an appointment because they have a lot of clientele!

Nicole Marie Hands down the BEST salon for pedicures. I drive over 30 minutes just to come here. I had a really bad in grown nail, it’s happened twice (my own fault) and this is the ONLY place I trust to come for my pedicures and to take care of the ingrown nail. It’s the most painful feeling, that I can barely walk, let alone even touch it. The husband always does my pedicures and he’s the only one I will allow to do them, and he takes out all in grown nails that form, or what would be forming, and always manages to get me in when I need it most. So gentle and always the best experience when I come here.

Cheryll Sandly Hanah is the best! No matter what inspiration picture I bring to her, she always does it and makes my nails look fantastic. Shes so nice and easy to talk to during your appointment, too. I highly recommend booking with Hanah each time I go to her I am never disappointed.

Jasmine Vides Update: 02/27/2025 I was recommended by several people to make an appointment with Gwen. When I checked in for my appointment I was sat with Jolie. Although, I left Jolie’s table satisfied her customer service was incredibly poor and dismissive. I also had a pedicure scheduled with Kim. Well, Henry came over to get me started with my pedicure. I have made a post below about Henry and his service (see below). I have also asked the staff twice do not provide Henry’s services to me. I ended up not getting a pedicure and walking out. The overall experience and environment was poor. The manager Ken stood right at the front when Jolie and I were having a misunderstanding and when Henry came to speak to Ken while I was paying they both just stared at me. All of the nail techs were behind and the environmental was hectic and tense. I believe a lot of this could have been avoided had it not been the poor management skills and more compassion when it comes to customer service. I will absolutely not be returning. Let me first start by saying I do enjoy this salon however, I felt my most recent experience needed to be addressed. I got my nails done for Disney World on 4/26/24 and 3 days into my trip my nails were lifting and chipping on both my hands and feet. I paid an extra $15 for the “chrome” for hands and feet, and every nail was chipping. I went back on 5/8/24 due to me being on vacation and was told my hands would be takin care of by Henry who originally did my nails. But, I would have to make an appointment. On 5/9 at the time of my appointment I was told because i had a gel service the full service does not apply. And could get the two main nails that were lifting fixed. So, I obliged and allowed Henry to work on me. My nails came out two different colors then the rest of my set and I left disappointed. I had to ask for a discount and although I will be getting a discount the next time I felt that whoever was managing at the time should have made more of an effort to fix the situation. All in all I would not recommend Henry aka Hien. Update: As of 07/11/2024 I went back for a spa pedicure and a gel color change after I was promised a 30% discount. My bill came to $98 total and only $10 was deducted. I will not be spending any more of my money in this establishment. I hope they do better with customer service and the promises they keep to their customers.

Bailey Brown The best parts of coming to Estelle are Hannah & Kim! They pay attention to detail and provide great customer service. They also do amazing jobs when it comes to their work.

Tera Mungia Nail Spa Alpure deserves a shot! Theyre the most amazing nail place Ive ever been too. My nails turned out beautifully and I absolutely love them. Ill admit, they were on the pricier side, but worth every penny!!! My nail tech was super sweet and awesome (I wish I knew his name) Ive been looking for a go to nail place and Ive finally found one! Thank you Nail Spa Allure!!!

Priscilla Ortega I love to get pedicures every so often but this place was one of the best pedicures I’ve had in a long time. Ryan did an awesome job and took his time massaging my feet and giving me his full attention. My husband also got a pedicure and manicure with Tiffany and she did a great job on both. He’s also very picky and he wants to come back for sure. I will for sure be coming back also for a manicure next week with my daughter.

web3elizabeth C The staff here is incredibly welcoming and attentive, which makes the experience even better than the large, clean and relaxing environment...but the techs... I’ve had my nails done all over the world, and no one compares to Lin’s steady hand and eye for precision on my dip nails. She can attest to this herself, having seen the awful versions I return with that she has to remove. Other technicians often leave my nails looking like bubbly, uneven messes. But Lin? She’s the only one who, despite my crooked fingers and thin nails, never damages my limited natural nail bed or builds up layers. If you want a long, natural look for your thin nails, I wouldn’t trust anyone else. A huge bonus is that Kevin is always by her side, ready to transform my mangled feet into OF potential. Random note: The mini pink children’s pedicure chair is an adorable touch—perfect for mommy-daughter pedicures side by side. I don’t have kids, but it made me want to borrow someone’s just so they could be as delighted as I was by it. It gives off serious Club Libby Lu vibes. Only big city quality nail spa in Temple, TX.

Mason Isabel I booked an appointment at Larita Nail Spa this morning to get a full set with a design with an express pedicure. I brought my own polish for the pedicure and they turned out fantastic! I really enjoyed the service. For my full set, I wanted that trendy amber tortoiseshell design. I only get nail extensions done once a year, and I am pleased with the design, I wish I could remember my technicians names to give full props to both of them! Unfortunately, the shape is a little wonky for me. I was asked multiple times through my service about shape, and I agreed, but I did not see them from the side during my service. It wasnt until i got into my car that I realized a lot of them look tilted up, pointing towards the sky when my finger is straight, and some of the fingers have a noticable indent in the acryllic. I paid $93 (not including tip) for the manicure portion of my service.

tameka Harrison Ella, David, Bella, and Vincent—truly the magnificent four! During my recent business trip, I faced a nail emergency right before an important presentation. Luckily, I stumbled upon this fantastic team after hours, and they rose to the occasion with impressive skill and dedication. They transformed my appearance just in time for my big day! I cant thank them enough for their professionalism and warm hospitality. I will definitely return before I leave town, not just for the great service, but also for the incredible experience they provide. Highly recommended!

Samantha Thomas I’ve been to Larita twice now and both times i was really satisfied with my service. Got a full set with cat eye gel both times and i absolutely love the look. Bella did my nails both times and she was very sweet and very attentive to my wishes. Thanks for the super cute nails!!!!

Natalie Medrano Tim did an amazing job on my 8year olds nails. He asked me tons of questions before getting started and during the process. He never assumed anything. He also educated me on the different nail styles and which is best for her age as she grows. He loves doing designs so if you love designs he’s definitely your go to. Her nails are better than the inspo picture.

Nhi Tran I recently had my nails done at this salon, and I couldnt be happier with the results! DANNY was so nice and paid great attention to detail. He did an amazing job with the French manicure, and the rhinestone design adds the perfect bit of sparkle. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make their nails look extra special!

Angelica Garcia Got a full set with French tips. Amy did amazing! She was also very nice and attentive with a smile on her face. This matters to me cause I have gone to nails places before and person performing the service has a stank face or they just look unhappy to be working on you. I am also in the beauty industry myself and I don’t treat my clients like that. Anyway! Great service right when you walk in the door. Bathroom was clean. And I was offered a drink while I waited and it was only for 5 minutes. Thank you so much!

Taylor Tavarez Got a gel manicure and multiple nails cracked less than one week later. Not worth going back to fix since 4 nails have cracked and chipped. My hair is also getting caught underneath the other nails… not good polish. She barely cut my cuticles either. Paid $45 and will not come back.

Ashtin Caudill Luxe nails and spa does me right everytime! I always walk out feeling better than I did walking in. The staff is very kind and professional! 10/10

Jess Nieto I love visiting this salon, especially when Annie does my nails. The gel manicure and pedicure keep my nails looking great for three weeks. Ive also tried the dipping with Ben, and it was also great!

Azalyah Garcia It’s my first time here and I absolutely love It here! I went here on 12-9-24 to get a manicure and I love what I received. I had went in with a design I liked and I received exactly it and a little more to the design. I had a person named Tony who doesn’t speak English much but enough to understand him. He is so sweet and kind. He did a fantastic job on my nails. I also had a lady named Sophia helping him understand anything I wanted. She was also a charm and very joyful. I would give this place a 10/10 for great service, and very clean. I payed a total of $75 with a $5 tip.

Jasmine Hardiman This is a very nice and clean nail salon. Its fancy lookin. I came in around 6. I didnt get out until about 8:15. They close at 8 PM...Fridays are super busy, so its best to come way before then. I got a pedicure and a new set of nails. Tanya worked on my hands and she did a great job. She speaks clear English and has a great personality. Shes helpful and gives good conversation.

Alivia Claypool This was my first time here, and Emily did an excellent job! She was so nice and really funny, had a pleasant personality all around. She was comfortable with just being herself. She did a good job on my nails and on my toes. Really made a good end to my really rough week. Emily is a keeper! I’ll be coming back just for her!

Kaitlyn Cortez I have never been disappointed with this company. Always very friendly and take their time in their work. Anytime I show them what I want they do it 1000 times better. Definitely recommended. I had Jimmy for the purple and my bright blue nails were Lihn

Kanishka Upreti If you’re looking for an outstanding nail salon, I highly recommend Paradise Nails and Spa. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is incredibly professional and attentive. Their attention to detail is impressive. I went there with my family, I appreciated the cleanliness of the space and the use of high-quality products. My nail technician Nancy was skilled and took the time to understand what I wanted. She was not rushed at all. After my pedicure, she gave me a massage that relaxed my whole body. Overall, Paradise Nail & Spa is a fantastic choice for anyone seeking top-notch nail services in a relaxing environment. I can’t wait to return!!

Alyssa Kaiser Irene, Sunny, and Austin took great care of me after a long work day. I really am grateful this salon is open later than most! Such a wonderful team!
