Lee’s Nails

Call ahead of time to see what the headcount is like, if you tell them when you’re coming in they’ll try to have someone ready for you. Street parking is in front of the place but there’s a lot more behind it. Clean facilities and patient service (I couldn’t make up my mind of what I wanted and they were accommodating). Prices are standard, mani — $ 10 mani/​pedi — $ 18, full set — $ 20 color powder — $ 30 I came in needing to take my color powder off and the person who did my nails took their time with removing them. My nature nails were still strong and smooth when the acrylics were taken off. Would return if in the area.

This place has been here for 30 years! I’m picky as hell about my personal services. Here are suggestions from which you won’t be disappointed:
Nails: Nick or Pam (damn, they’re just good – excellent shaping, care, and sanitizing) $ 28 for natural nails
Eyebrows: Lynn (sheer perfection, all for $ 6) and honey, EVERYONE compliments my eyebrows.
All for $ 34!!!

The worst nail shop I have ever been to! There’s no reason why less than a week of me getting a refill should my nails already be coming off! The guy that works in there is very rude and did a horrible job on my nails. He didn’t apologize or anything for me having to make multiple trips for his bad service. To be honest this entire shop needs to be shut down!

I was in search for a salon that did waxing and came across Lee’s Nails. The lady did my eyebrows SO GOOD. This was the best I’ve seen them look and she even filled them in for me. I was really impressed.

Lynn is the only one who I allow to do my eyebrows and she is simply amazing and nice ! Tell her what brow you are trying to achieve and she will get you very close to it. One of my eyebrows has a slightly lower arch and she knows how to shape them both evenly very well. She starts off by waxing them, then shaving them, plucking them, and then last shading them in. Always satisfied with her work and would recommend her to anyone ! :)

Thy remodeled the place. It’s looking neat and cleaner. I’ll always come here for brow maintenance

I chose this location based on a decent star rating. I had a manicure with gels and a pedicure. They were not able to match the gel color with my pedicure, so I have a deep orange color on my hands and a dark red on my toes. Not sure anyone but me would notice. Ultimately I did not get what I wanted or paid for. Very expensive experience. I give this nail experience a one star rating

Lee’s gives food and prizes to make up for the worst service ever. For nails, absolutely sloppy. Polish everywhere and humps at the end of the nail. When told to fix their mistakes, they act like they’ve never heard english before. I shouldnt pay for $ 30 for shellac with this many errors.
I only recommend this place for eyebrows.

Old School mani-​pedi CASH ONLY
Great massage chairs– very clean-​very welcoming.
No frills, very gentle, thorough scrubbing. Wish there was mire massage. Not quite 2 minutes-​lol
Be sure to allow nails to dry– i didn’t and got smudge on way home.

I’ve been a customer here for many years. Yesterday I got my eye brows done. I asked the lady as she was shaping my brows with the metal blade, «How often do u sanitize the blade?» She did not understand. No English. So I began to investigate. 2 Asian workers & a dose of aggravation later, finally some1 who spoke English told me: every 2 customers they throw blade away; they alternate the 2 sided blade every 2 customers. Ew! I told her aloud in front of everyone U R suppose to clean it between each customer. Then another worker told me to bring me own blade. WTMF??? POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE & UNSANITARY. All this arose b/​c last time around my brows only began to breakout. Double ew! I’ll just have to go elsewhere.

Im From NY, been going to the same eyebrow lady my whole life and lord knows when I moved to Houston I was so scared to go anywhere and have anyone touch my face. glad I looked on Unilocal.location is NOWHERE near me but I will never go to another place for my brows, first time I sat down I didnt even have to tell her how I wanted it, that i like alcohol rubbed before and after, nothing. It’s like she read my mind, and I had no complaints. This is rare, its hard to impress me and even when Im satisfied I usually have a complaint. I use the lady by the front door (short hair) I don’t know her name but theres no need, she’s an angel of God

Everyone has to go to Lan Le for eyebrow shaping! She is the most experienced and is simply amazing! She’s efficient and the price is incredibly reasonable. Her hours are Monday thru Saturday open to close. No appointment needed. Just ask for Lan Le!

My first time here was yesterday (January 27, 2015) and my opinions are as follows:
1. If your schedule allows, go in the morning or early afternoon on a weekday. I’m in law school, so I went between classes. The wait was only 3 minutes and I was done in 7. So I didn’t experience the wait time that is complained about.
2. I’ve been waxing my eyebrows for the past 7 years, never in my life have I experienced the pain I’ve experienced here. LanLe really just rips the strip off of you. Seriously.
3. My brow area remained red for the remainder of the day. That’s unusual for me.
4. I experienced an abnormal and irritating itch in my brow area for the past 24 hours. I’ve cleaned my brow area several times and I’m still itching. I’ve never had issues with waxing, so maybe I’m having an allergic reaction to the wax they use or the makeup she uses to fill it in afterwards. I don’t know. If it still itches up to 48 hours, I’ll get it checked out.
5. All in all, my eyebrows turned out amazing. The precision and cleanliness of them is something I have yet achieved until going here. I went in looking like a werewolf and came out looking like a lady. I give her her props on that.

Lynn is the truth on the eyebrows and it is super cheap. Sometimes a long wait but worth it.

As usual on a Saturday, the eyebrow line is obscenely long. I’m #13 and they are on #7… sigh. What can I say? She does not play with the brows, at all.
My one complaint about this nail shop, the parking situation is beyond horrible. I’ve had to drive around in circles and bend the block a few times. The parking lot is shared with the other businesses and they are like Children, they mark off their spots with homemade signs and are very serious about having you towed.
I feel they should be better situated with parking with the amount of business they do… just an honest opinion.
Welp, my number is up… Happy holiday brows to all…

They got three of us in last minute and did a very fast job, which is good if you’re in a super rush. That’s the only good quality. The pedi ‘massage’ was terrible, and this is not a nice, relaxing atmosphere at all. I’m never going back.

If you’re lookin for a nice relaxing spa type experience, go somewhere else. This place is the bare bones of getting your nails done. eek.
So short back story: I decided to buy an at home gel manicure kit from target to see if I could get beautiful chip-​free nails from the comfort of my own home. big mistake. I tried it out and within a day the polish was chipping all over the place. I had a work event to go to tonight and I could not show up with my nails looking toe up. Nail emergency! I Unilocaled the nearest nail place to my work and this place showed up. I was very hesitant but decided to give it a go.
I walked in and was greeted (kinda) by a woman giving a pedicure. I told her I just needed my gel nail polish removed. The woman started talking to the other women in what I presume was Vietnamese, and kinda pointed for me to sit down (I think…). I sat down, and a man appeared from the back and sat down across from me. He told me to put my nails in a bowl of liquid that was quite hot. He then put a towel over my hands and left to go work on some other girls nails. Hold on, what? How long do I sit here? After finishing the other girls nails, which thank goodness didn’t take more than 10 minutes, he came back to me and finished taking off my polish. In the end my polish was gone so I guess he did a fine job.
Overall, the service can definitely be improved on. No one was particularly nice, and the place could use some pazaaz. There wasn’t any decoration and it seemed a bit dirty. The people working there didn’t seem very professional at all. One woman came out of the back with a hugeee bag of chips and was just going to town on those while some customers were waiting. Seemed a bit weird to me.
So if you’re looking for great service and a nice nail salon experience, this is definitely not your place. However, if you just need something simple done (gel polish removed) for cheap (5 bucks) this is definitely the place to go to. I think next time I might even try getting my eyebrows done there. From the amount of women there waiting to get their eyebrows done, they must do a great job!

My eyebrows have never looked so great! I can be rather particular about getting my eyebrows waxed because they are usually left too thin or the shape is off. I went on a Tuesday afternoon and the wait time was less than 5 min which I greatly appreciate.
I can’t get over how great my brows look.
And the price was just $ 5! Will be returning in the future.

I’ve been getting my eyebrows done by Lynn since I’ve graduated from Texas Southern University in 2008.
Lynn, doesn’t do anything else in the nail shop but eyebrows and she only charges $ 5 to make magic happen to your face.
Five stars for Lynn’s work and thats it!
If you don’t mind the agurments, confusion and wait to get your eyebrows done then Lynn is your eyebrow guru. The arguments and confusion doesn’t take place until like 2pm — 7pm on week days when everyone is off from work or getting off from work.
If I could give the establishment a seperate rating from Lynn’s rating… I would give this place 2 stars. Only because I feel that… they need to establish a waiting system for customers to avoid confusion, aurgurments and fights and they need to update their establishment’s décor and parking lot.
Customers who have been waiting to see Lynn often get a little hostile when it comes to waiting too long to get their eyebrows hooked up. I’ve witnesse many altercations with women getting ready to duke it out because both ladies assumed they were next in line to see Lynn.
Yeah, this nail shop is considered to be in the hood (I don’t considered Almeda st. the hood) and yeah you will run into a few ratchet incidents but bet if you get your eyebrows done by Lynn you’ll always want to go back.
Lynn, we love you!!!

I live around the corner so I decided to go in and get my eyebrows waxed, and a quick pedi!
EYEBROWS– This is a great place for perfect brows! Its not your go in a comfy back room and lay down type waxing. however my eyebrows are THE BEST looking they have been in a while!
PEDICURE– didnt pass my liking. The Massage chair didnt work, and it was not very sanitary AT ALL… No pampering, not many summer colors to choose from…
Overall.
Not a place you want to get pampered. Just a hidden gem for perfect eyebrow shaping!!!
