Top Best 10 Nail Salons in El Paso, El Paso (part 3)

B H If you’re looking for recommendations I highly suggest you look elsewhere. I stopped service before my “nail tech” could even put the polish on. Had an attitude because I asked for a specific nail shape and continued to shape them another way. Bulky, warped and uneven nails. Just don’t. Save your money.

Sophia Christianne Nabhan Me and my friend had made it an appointment, and we were told that we would be seen by two women who work there, when we got there we were sat with two men instead. Apparently with what my friend told me the man who is doing her nails was doing so badly that the woman who was supposed to see us had to take over and finish doing her nails. While I was getting my nails done I had asked him if they had gemstones and he did not understand me I’m not even sure if he spoke or understood English. And while he was using the electric file he got my cuticles multiple different times also the paint on certain nails is uneven. This was not my first visit at star nails spa, even the first time that I went there my nails were not done well. overall experience there was kind of frustrating

Adrienne Asked for a manicure and left with only my cuticles barley being taken off. Cuticles were cut on dry skin, my cuticles weren’t pushed back and I was not provided (light massage) as mentioned in manicure description or lotion/oil afterwards. I left with my nails feeling very dry and my cuticles still being there. Wouldn’t recommend.

Ashley Vasquez It’s very disappointing to say that lately my service with star nail spa has been not the greatest. Kenny disappointed me the way he did my nails this time, the same week he did my nails 2 nails snapped off and one of them was coming off already, he never takes his time anymore, he does lumpy nails and doesn’t draw good anymore and is always in a rush. He did a really bad job , never coming back ever again even though I was a loyal customer. I had let him know that the nails didn’t even last a week and didn’t want to help me fix them. I will never depend on this place again.

Paula Klauss My only complaint was that the pedicure water was cold and wish I had more time to soak my feet. Partly my fault as I should’ve spoke up. However, my pedicure turned out great and I also got a full set put on. They took their time and made sure I was happy. My nails look really pretty and I have gotten so many compliments on them. Reasonable pricing as well. If you’re thinking of coming here, you definitely should!

Hannah H Went last week and had a great expierence. Got a mani & pedi. The place is clean and modern. The nail tech was professional and friendly. The prices are a little expensive but worth it. I will be going back.

Javesnev Hernandez If there was an option to review this place with 0 starts I would….first time being here & im a licensed nail tech so my job was booked & I live around the area so I thought I’d give this place a try…. I walk in my 1st impression is this place looks dirty I got seated quick for a pedi…. He grabs a nail clipper from his cart which I know isn’t clean I asked is it clean he says yes than he proceeds to use a dirty nail file & a dirty buffer I asked him why are you reusing those on clients he says he doesn’t have money to buy new ones for each client…& if clients want new ones they need to pre order or pay more for it…he almost reused a pumice stone too but grabbed a new one. Don’t come here they’re not taking and safety precautions at all it’s dirty and cheap here.

Andrea Cruse Best pedicure I’ve gotten in a long time. He didn’t force me to talk during the service either. I like the quiet. He took his time and was very precise! I could’ve fallen asleep in the chair! 10/10 highly recommend. Did I mention the prices are very fair.

R. Mayorga I moved recently, tried to other places and I was HIGHLY disappointed. The Staff at Depot Nails is very welcoming and friendly. I have never had issues with my nails w/in a week or even 10 days when getting them done here, they last 4-6 weeks without any lifting or breaking. They Keep the appointments you make and prices are reasonable. I recommend this shop to all my friends and family.

Eva Aragon I have been getting my nails done with Mittie for over 10 years. I love her work! She is patient and goes above and beyond for her clients. She really takes care of my cuticles. I’ve never had any bad experiences with her, I work with a lot of water and chemicals and never had I had issues with lifting. Highly recommend her services!!

Rose Santos Forgot to cancel an appointment, but some lady called and saying "there wont be a next time".. she could of said something else a little less harsh and stay put..

Minnie Cordero I highly recommend The Garden Spa. Mitty is very meticulous about the service she provides her clients. She is a wonderful and beautiful person. You will feel relaxed and definitely pampered.

Monica Samano Mittie the owner of the salon is very knowledgeable about all the services she provides. She has very reasonable prices and she dedicates the time to every customer. I highly recommend this nail salon. Also Mariana and Monica they do excellent job in pedicure

Tee. This does not reflect the quality of a $120 service. Picked bright orange. Had to ask to redo the paint on my toes because they painted white as the base coat to make it “pop,” and painted the orange over it. Coats were patchy/uneven & could see the white underneath. Every toe was a diff shade of orange even tho it was the same color. The fingernails speak for itself in the pic attached.. unacceptable. Meanwhile, peeling the fried acrylic off the tips of my fingers & cuticles. I believe this was the owner who did this.

Stephanie Prexl Went in a day prior and asked for a pedi & a cat eye polish with NO FILING cause I have thin nails. Charged me 28$ for the cat eye polish (which was fine), but then 10$ extra “for design” which I didn’t get. The cat eye wasn’t even done properly. The nails chipped in less than 48 hours and she filed my nails anyway so it cracked in a terrible spot. When I called to have it fixed, I asked for the owner or manager, he hung up on me!! I had to call back to speak to a receptionist & still Brandon didn’t work on my nails as discussed. He had another woman do it. He speaks to his staff very poorly & doesn’t seem to care about customer satisfaction only about how much we will spend. If you’re going to be price gauging, make sure your services are worth the price. & don’t up charge to fix your mistakes. Never had a problem getting pedicures there, but definitely won’t be giving them my business anymore. (Also never had to leave a 1 star review before.)

stephanie han I want to call out the owner. Very rude and greedy. Wouldn’t let my 10 year old sit next to me during their dead hours. He said unless I paid for an additional pedicure. He only cares about money. I’ve seen how he treats his employees. He doesn’t like them talking to one another and tells them to stop talking when they do. I’ve heard him say, “Get back to work!” No respect towards his clients or workers. I can tell he’s a control freak and has a huge ego.

Tiffany Lujan Extremely disappointed in my pedicure and overlay/nails. My toe nails were cut very short and filed uneven. My nails are lumpy and sides were not filed. The ones that were are lopsided!The time I spent there was beyond unacceptable as well! Not only are they expensive but the technicians are very unprofessional. I will not be going back!

Azalie Villalobos I got eyebrow waxing done, I feel like there was no effort put into the shaping and I wasnt happy with how they came out. Dont do waxing here. Eyebrows were $15 lip was $14 Nail services here are good, I did like my mani pedi. $120

Marisela Martinez I took my daughter 1 week ago to get a gel manicure for her birthday. It’s been 1 week and her nail polish is lifting. I had gone 1 day before and mine is good. It really does matter who works on your feet & hands. But if they are going to allow the not so good people work on you then they should not charge full price. $150 for my daughters nails to look like this after 1 week is not good

Aluisa Morales It was very good Oadly did very good job my 1st time getting acrylics

Jaylene I love this nail salon. Just went back and got a cute set with a snowflake, something minimal for my ski trip!!! Nails & pedi lasted throughout everything.

Greg Not worth soak off nails. Manicure was not worth the $60 bucks I paid with chrome. Great convo but Ill never go again. Been there 4 times and this time was probably the worst skill I experienced. Just go with caution. I tips accordingly and paid with cash. Forgot to sign in.

Jesse Daigüal Called at 3, was told to go at 4, was told no appointment needed, they were doing 2 pedicures for some ladies that were very annoying customers, and nails for 10 year old girls. Im upset because I was encouraged to wait, yet the 2 people doing pedicures are SO SLOW and to avoid wasting peoples time, why dont you book appointments. What a waste of my time!!!

Alexandra Fierro Xavier was super kind and did my nails exactly how I asked, highly recommended coming here again!

Rosie Luna-froehlich My pedicure was good. The tech I got took her time and really did a great job on my feet. The tech my sister got was impatient, did not take her time and cut my sisters cuticle and made her bleed. I didn’t like that the tech ignored the bleeding until my sister asked her to rinse it. You kind of role the dice on this place. Just depends on who does your nails.

Ana Sanchez After using a brush to wash off all the acrylic left on my hands (goops left under my nails), these are my nails the next morning. The place is not the cleanest, and even with an appointment youre waiting. These nails are SO thick and do not look oval as I asked.

Louise Michelle Martinez I’ve been to a few places and this one is the best. Friendly, and do an excellent job. It’s hard to find a good place to get your nails done but I love this place.

Anissa Acuna I loved the professionalism of the workers & the cleanliness of the place, but paying $60 for a refill & change of color is a bit much only for my nails to look like this 3 days later. The bubbles were there the day I got them done.

Spirit Norris Excellent! Fast and amazing! I absolutely love my nails!! He did a phenomenal job!

michelle martinez I would like to say the majority of employees are very nice and do awesome work. One particular lady was extremely rude. I told her the color and she made a face then looked at her friend sitting next to her. Then she said something about a number. I told her my bad, i didnt see a number by the color. She said its fine and that she would have to look it up. She starts gluing my nails then gets on the phone. Shes calling a doctors office then says she will be right back. Note the doctor wasnt calling her, she decided to call the doctor at that time. Sounded important so I waited for her. She returns and keeps working. She is distracted and talking to her friend the whole time. The problem is that everytime she talks to her friend, she stops working on my nails. I was in her chair for 45 mins and all she did was apply the tips and acrylic. She finished applying acrylic at 3 PM. At this point, im still all smiles. She then proceeds to clean all her brushes. Not just the one she was using on me but all her brushes. At least three. And of course still chatting with her friend. I will say her friend was talking but still working on her client. At 3:12, I told her its already 3:12. She asked if I was in a hurry, I said yes. She said youre going to be here for a while. I heard her say something about 40. Not sure if she meant another 40 mins or 3:40. I said well if you would stop leaving and stop stopping to talk to your friend, it may not be that long. She proceeded to waste more time doing nothing then I then asked her if I could pay for the service she did do. She said $65. Mind you my nails had not been filed, and no top coat applied. I said $65?!?!?! She came back with $45. I said fine I paid her. I told her she was very unprofessional. Especially how she would not allow me to rest my arms on the table so that she could rest her WHOLE arm. My hands were literally at the edge of the table on my side while she was applying acrylic. She said she didnt care. I go to wash my hands so I can leave And see one of my nails is bent. I told her its bent. She accused me of messing it up on purpose. At this point I raised my voice so the whole room could hear including the manager/owner. I told her mam " I just paid for these. You saw me pay. While I was paying, the nail bent. I am not trying to give you a hard time, i just came to get my nails done. I told her its bent because you didnt put any acrylic on the tip. " Look at the pictures. Notice how there is no acrylic on the tip. Or not nearly enough. She stated that was not true. I showed the whole room of customers how there was no acrylic on the tip. Then she said she would fix it. She starts cutting the nail she messed up. Then tries to cut off one of my other nails that was fine that I had already paid for. I snatched my hand before she could. I told her why are you trying to cut off the other nails I just paid for. She said Im trying to fix it. I said only 1 nail is messed up, youre trying to cut off the other ones that I paid for. I washed my hands and left Everyone here does great work. All are very friendly. This lady however was not. The manager did not speak up, apologize or offer any customer service whatsoever. The lady never apologized for any of it, she make excuses for everything I said, said she didnt care and was just plain rude and unprofessional.

Krab Kingz The absolute worst experience we’ve ever had as a team. Complete stomach turning results. We (as a team) literally support local especially within the north east of El Paso community and stumbled upon this business by the location as well as the reviews. We were placed in a chair and waited over an hour to be attended to. In which the lobby (waiting area) went from FULL to EMPTY THREE TIMES! And I still find myself sitting in a chair awaiting services and to be attended to. I personally as well as a business owner will NEVER recommend this establishment. Didnt even get serviced and left after 2hrs of my time has gone by. Next time please for the sack of customers and their time management male, female, busy, not busy, just be CLEAR on the times and tend to EVERYONE. No waters, no services point blank period or to even offer is CRAZY. 0/10 is I could and I NEVER bring a business down.

Carreno V “Your Majesty” My tech used the same nail clippers. And supplies on the next lady. Nasty. Realized she used dirty tools on me. Wont return . And I pray I dont get fungus

Sanchez Mrs. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place. I’ve been getting my years done for many years and this is by far one of the worst their technicians are not skilled or competent enough to do the job! I also left my yelp review for others.

Vivian Heredia The people here are very nice however I paid $70 for these small almond nails which are already chipping after only 6 days. I had to go back to the salon when I noticed how rough they were under and on the sides of the nails. The lady eventually filed them down for me and I left with such regret because if I had gone to my regular nail tech she would’ve charged way less with better quality. Not worth the $70 at all.

Margie Rice I went to get a dip my nails started chipping off within 2 days I called & they said they couldn’t do anything bout it… the nail tech (Christina)was not too friendly at all either . For my first time being there I would definitely not recommend it. If I could rate 0 I definitely would.

Robert Savannah Ann, the owner of this beautiful establishment treated us with kindness, understanding and professionalism. We love the atmosphere and surroundings and how nice Anns staff is and the drinks that they make, are just to die for. Thank u for taking such great care of my wife and myself. We need more establishments like this in El Paso. Ann makes our visit so soothing and relaxed. We want to thank u for being so different from every other nail salon in El Paso TX. We look forward to coming here every month in the coming months and future. Thank u again..

Alexis Boyce Justina did her thaaannggg I showed her my inspiration pic and she delivered. She was patient because my 1 year old tagged along. She took her time on my pedicure was neat and precise. Ill be a returning customer

Susan Clemons Beautiful place! Peaceful and relaxing. Ask for Sandra! She turned this nail biters nails into something cute! She also improved the condition of my feet!

Juli Stephenson This is my all time FAVORITE place to get my nails done. Firstly, its so clean and beautifully decorated with comfy furniture and pretty decor. On top of that, the staff are all so nice and willing to work with you. Just be concise with what you want, and they will try. Angela is so great and talented, and when I showed her something she hadnt seen before, instead of turning me away she really worked hard on it! And it turned out beautiful! Love this place, yall.

Samantha Garcia I wanted to love it here because the staff was friendly but unfortunately I can’t recommend this place. I wanted gel x nails and they convinced me to get builder gel with tips. They quoted me a price for cat eye polish and when I paid the lady increased the price to $20 and when I asked her about it she said ok $15. Almost 100 dollars total! The most I’ve ever paid and it was minimal design and he didn’t even prep my cuticles. The nails looked great but they felt flimsy and the next day all the tips just broke off. Then I went in to fix them and the man was so rushed and he over drilled my nails to the point where I had to pull my hand back multiple times. The tips still fell off over the next two days. Now my nails are in horrible condition. Be cautious!

nadia garcia It was super rushed. It wasn’t even busy at all. I got a pedi and this mani/gel. One week ago! It’s chipping so bad. Sadly it isn’t the first time I go there, and after so many chances still never get it right. You’d think they cared about the business in between all this going on. Oh, and the lady doing them wasn’t wearing a mask. So I think that’s where I draw the line now.

Tina Brown I was looking forward to getting my nails done here because my daughter-in-laws looked amazing, but this is what I got, and it was coming off the same day.

Patricia Brown I took my niece and mother in law there on Monday, and we were the first ones there right as they opened. I asked for a pedi and a fill. At the time, there was only one tech there she began my my pedi while my mother and niece waited for the techs to arrive. It quickly became busy, and the male tech rushed through my mother in laws nails to begin working on mine. I asked him how long it would take as we had another appointment, and i didnt want him to rush. He assured me that he could do it no problem. Another 10 minutes passed, and still, i hadnt started, and so i decided i didnt want to be rushed and declined the fill. I looked at my mother in laws nails as soon as we left and saw they were clumpy, and not even four days later, they started to peel off.

TaNece Carr When I first got there, the person who is doing my nails was an older man and he was wrapped up in sports betting I believe he kept checking his phone in watching the WNBA. I probably should’ve said something right at that point but I did not. I’m like I’m just going to pay attention and you know he’s a professional he should be fine. I told him how I wanted my nails I told him that I wanted them a little thicker because my nails tend to break a lot and I told them that I wanted them narrow according to the picture you can see that I have all different shapes. The man did not ask me what shape now I want to. He just started working on my nails. It does not look good. I tried my best to kind of update him as we were going along, but after he’s already has acrylic going, I really didn’t know what to say in order for him to fix it. But towards the end, I was finally frustrated when I was asking him to fix one nail and I just ask for someone else to do it respectfully, and they told me basically that it was trouble since it had already been been done, and I should’ve said something in the beginning. Which I did. The man was not paying attention. He was paying attention to sports. No one said sorry about anything. And then I did not get gel polish, so the green polish that I originally got. It was so see-through that it really didn’t look right so I got them to take it off and then the white polish that they put on there also didn’t look right and you can see that you can still see the green underneath the white. The one who did my pedicure did a good job, but the issue was also with the polish. I chose a lime green OPI and they were saying that it was too late and kept recommending gel polish which I did not want to pay extra for that. Their normal polishes seem to be diluted . Then they proceeded to tell me if I didn’t want the lime green color if they needed to put white underneath then I will be charged extra for that. Personally, if I had a business that I Really enjoyed my work. I would not let a client leave the way that I left today and I was not rude. I did not fuss I did not holler. I did not do any of that. Unfortunately it seems like that’s what they want you to do in order to get anything done correctly. If that makes sense I’m just really upset and will not be returning to this nail shop, nor would I recommend them to anyone to.

Aria Rand Amazing gel manicure for only $30!!!! Not including tip but still gave a good tip cuz my lady was amazing! Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the nail file and nail buffer used on me was old and had clearly been used before but they sprayed alcohol on my hands several times so I guess high risk means high reward and my nails are so nice. Also the thing to see what gel polishes they have doesn’t have all the colors and is broken but I mean I’m sure you can ask to see the wall of them.
