C Nails & Spa

I have mixed feelings about C nails. The first time I went I absolutely loved it. The service was amazing, they have the most gel colors to choose from than any other nail salon I’ve been to, and my nails turned out great (and they lasted for a long time)!
Excited that I had found my new spot to get my nails done, I made an appointment and rushed there after work to make it before closing. Unfortunately this visit was not nearly as impressive as my last.
The service was alright but I could tell the employees were not taking it seriously and were ready to be done (I got there at 6:30 and they close at 7). They rushed through my nails and didn’t allow my gel polish to sit long enough. My pedicure was not acceptable, as they barely scrubbed. Another customer was also talking to someone very loudly on speaker phone! And no one politely asked her to hang up or at least take it off speaker.
My nails ended up lasting about two days (gel is supposed to last weeks) and unfortunately due to my hectic work schedule I was unable to go back in. I guess it really just depends on the time of day you go and which employee is doing your nails. I will not be returning to C nails.

I’ve been to better, i’ve been to worse. My nails aren’t amazing and I won’t be back, but okay for what you pay. If you’re in a pinch, give them a try.

Absolutely in love. Whether I’m coming in for a quick touch up or the whole package, I’m always treated so well and it’s such a great price.
I’ve been to so many nail salons and I’m happy to say I’ve found the one. For such an expensive area it’s so cost affective — and the ladies are always so nice.

Waited from 5:40 until 6:37 for someone to start on my basic mani and deluxe pedi. And I Just left at 7:15 and it already chipped. Ladies were apologetic though.

I have been to several other nail salons in Houston but had yet to find one that I felt charged a reasonable price for the quality and service. I finally found it here!
The salon is very large with plenty of chairs. I went late in the day on Sunday so I’m not sure how crowded it gets at peak times, but at 4:30 on a Sunday there were just a few other people there. They have magazines and 2 TVs to keep you entertained.
Kelly did my pedicure and she really took her time. My toes look great. I treated myself to the deluxe pedicure which includes a scrub, a hot stone massage, paraffin, etc… which was really nice after a long weekend.
Credit cards (except amex) accepted.

I almost don’t want to tell people how awesome this place is because I’m afraid if they get busy I may not be able to walk in without an appointment! I have been on the search for a great nail salon since I moved to Houston over two years ago.
This place is great! The service is exceptional and the pricing is amazing for what you get! Calming atmosphere as well. I finally found my Houston nail salon!

Over the past year I have really gotten into the whole «getting my nails did». I tried a couple of different places and this salon by far had the best customer service! Everyone there does a great job, but I of course have my favorites! (Tammy for my nails, Hana for my pedicures and massages, and Brenda for nail art and pedicures) I am constantly recommending this salon to everyone I meet and now have friends that go on the regular. Best nail salon by far!

This place is awesome! Super friendly service. Very well priced! Super super clean! Got myself a basic pedicure and I’ll always be coming here for it!

The staff here are all so sweet and I wish I could come here everyday to unwind and be pampered. I’m a regular for mani/​pedis, face waxing and I get a facial here when I’m really in need of some TLC! Seriously, I would consider moving in. It’s that serious.

I don’t get mani/​pedis often, but when I do, this is my go-​to place. I’ve tried several other salons in the area and this is the best quality relative to the price.
I’ve found the trick is to go either during the day on a weekday, or first thing when they open on a weekend. It seems to go quicker, there is a higher likelihood of getting my mani and pedi done simultaneously, and the quality seems to be better.
If you get frequent mani/​pedis, you probably want somewhere quicker. If you get them as an occasional treat and don’t mind relaxing and slowing down a little, this is a good place to go.

So I’m pretty annoyed. I typically wait a day or so to post a negative review so that I can cool down a little, but I don’t want to forget anything about this experience… So here goes… This was my second time getting my nails done here… First time my shellac came off in a week (typically I can go 3 weeks), but I decided to go again because I have friends who love them. This time I went with friends again, and all I wanted was a shellac take off and new shellac manicure. I sat in the pedicure chair because the other girls were getting pedis… 1.5 hours later I finally get foil on my fingernails… At this point I need to leave pretty quick so I tell her nevermind, I’ll just get a takeoff — she then tells me it will be an extra $ 5 since I’m not getting a manicure too… Ummm what?! Then it gets worse… She takes off my foil and starts to scrape and basically takes my entire pinky nail off… It’s so thin!!! My nails look awful, I’m very annoyed. And then they had the audacity to charge me for a takeoff and a «manicure»… I should have picked off the shellac myself. Never going back.

Clean atmosphere and great pedicure and the staff is very nice. And they don’t try to make you upgrade for everything. So I will be back.

I mean, my sister and my friend are willing to wait for a girl named Trang. Trang didn’t want to waste time so she took turns on my sister and friend back and forth after she was done with one step. I haven’t had her yet but my sister refuses to go to anyone else. I guess that accounts for something. It’s not my choice of a salon but it’s pretty cool that they have lots of different types of pedicures that have fruits, milks, teas. The prices are decent for pedicures that last about an hour.
My favorite as of now is Phuong. She was sweet and she took care of my nasty feet.

Sadly… Although the service here is amazing. I can’t keep lying to myself.
The quality of their polish (shellac-​wise) is awful and the way they have done my shellac manicures just doesn’t seem as «clean» and «proper» as when I have gotten them done at other places. My nails chipped the next day. The. Next. Day. And a week later? All my nails were chipped.
The prices are awesome, but I would rather spend the extra $ 10 elsewhere for un-​chipped nails

Pros:
Parking
Location
Quiet
Tv
Color choices
Price
Massage chairs
Clean
Offered me a drink
Cons:
Décor could be updated
Lady I had was quite tough on my cuticles and that’s never relaxing. — could of spoke up*
They are definitely a lot more friendlier to all the regulars who walked in, than a first timer.
Overall would definitely come back!

I love this location– never a wait for early birds like me. Clean with modern but not over the top décor. Plenty of parking. Gel mani and deluxe pedi for under $ 60! Thorough pedicures without bleeding. No attitude when I ask for a third coat on my gel mani or loud talking amongst the staff. Great shoulder and neck massage with deluxe pedi.

I came here in a whim and because it was close to my house and I wanted to give a new place a try. It was pretty slow so no wait… than again it was a Tuesday. Tammy was my nail tech and she was very nice and did a great job on my pink and white solar set. Price was reasonable, I paid $ 38 for the full set. the salon is still pretty new so it was very clean and bright.

If the opportunity arises, try this place! Super friendly greeting, lovely interior, the milk & oranges pedicure is pure decadence! This was my second visit, and I would give it ten stars if I could. This has become my go-​to pedi mani place now. Love it!

Only place I will go to get my nails done in Houston! They have amazing types of mani/​pedis. Staff is super friendly! It is super clean and big! Pedicure chairs are awesome and the massage features are great too. They have the largest selection of shellac colors as well. Oh yeah and they will do your nails/​toes @ the same time.

Admittedly I’m a relative novice nail care aficionado, but my experience was:
1) loooong wait to get started despite not many clients.
2) overly aggressive cuticle trimming and pumacing resulting in redness and peeling for the next 10 days.
3) the shellac started chipping 3 days later and has continued to chip away every day since (10 days later).
To be honest, my fingernails look worse now than they did before and my cuticles definitely have that raw, picked at look reminiscent of that kid in 1^st grade I couldn’t stand. And I have the extra hassle of needing to get rid of the shellac. :-(
