I went there for the first time yesterday, and it was great! They're located on the bypass at Rock Prairie Road, on the same side as the Honeybaked Ham place, next to Elements massage. They had sanitized personal boxes of tools for every client (without asking for one). It was very clean inside and they had really good massage chairs. They offered drinks, including wine (for no charge). I got the euro spa pedi ($25) which was their middle of the road pedicure. They also had a cheaper one for $15, as well as a more expensive one.

They did the normal trim clean stuff, but then I got an awesome 15 minute massage, parafin wax, a sea salt leg mask with hot towels, a few other massage gel stuff, and polish. They didn't rush through which was nice, but they also have an express pedicure for people who need one quick.

Another nice thing was that their main person spoke fluent english. I only saw one other customer in there while I was there, so I wanted to make sure some more people heard about this place.

It looks like they offer facials and waxing as well.

I love this place. They are so clean, and it is so much more relaxing than a regular nail salon. They even have wine and usually cookies, etc, if you want them. They are a little more expensive (by a few dollars), however, it is TOTALLY worth it. They do not rush you at all, and they always want to make sure you are comfortable and taken care of. The pedicure chairs are awesome! They even massage your legs/butt.

If you are a student/employee of A&M, you get a 15% discount. I highly recommend this place!

Another friend of mine went there yesterday for an eyebrow wax. She said with the wax she also got a mini head/temple massage. I'll have to try that next time I go in for a pedi.

I was there this weekend for a mani/pedi and loved it!! It was clean, comfortable, and relaxing - and the atmosphere is so nice. They are really trying to do a good job. I asked my technician how they were doing, and she said it had been pretty slow, but that they hoped it was because they opened close to the holiday season. Spread the word if you want them to stick around - I will be back for sure!!!

You said that the main person spoke fluent english. Does this mean that the others don't?

Do you recall the name of the person that gave the euro pedi spa? I'd like to get a gift certificate for a friend.

thanks.

There were three ladies working there when I went in. One did not speak english, but understood it (around 50 years old). Another woman, around the same age spoke english pretty well, but had trouble understanding some of my small talk. The youngest was around my age (I guess she was late 20s early 30s) and spoke fluent english with no accent. I assume she was brought up here, and one of the ladies was her mother. It seemed the youngest woman ran the salon. My pedicure was done by the older woman who did not speak english.

I really hope we can get some ladies to go there, I really like this place and hope it stays in business!!

Thanks for the info.

I went there yesterday and purchased a gift certificate for the euro pedi spa. I talked to the young girl (Vi). She was very nice and helpful. She said her m-i-l owns the shop and that she moved from Houston to help out.

I gave the gift cert to my friend last night, and she seemed very excited to go.

Thanks again.

Just for the record, I stopped in last night...and LOVED it. It was $62.00 to get a full set of solar nails and the upscale pedicure. I was actually there for 2 hours...and they were working on me the WHOLE time. I left a gracious tip because it was very clean, they took care of me as if I was the only person that mattered...none of this hurry through my nails to get to the next customer. In my opinion, I will always pay more for quality and cleanliness! I was offered wine, soda, or bottled water while relaxing. If you haven't tried it, definitely plan to!

I am so glad others are enjoying it. I was one of their first customers, and like others have posted, they are super clean and trying really hard to do a great job. The owner is the one that did my nails the first time, and she said she designed the shop around all of her experiences of getting her own nails done over the past 10+ years. She took all the positives and negatives, and built her shop around those. I cannot express enough good things about this shop.

I sat down here to post about the place, and then I saw this thread. I went this afternoon around 4:30 and had the deluxe pedicure. I was there at least an hour, and it was fabulous! The chairs were great, the place was clean and nice, and there was a full selection of polish. I was also glad to see they're open on Sunday from 1-5. Usually the best time for me to get my pedi is when my husband and kids are napping on Sunday.

I'll still go to my old place when I'm in a rush and they're not busy (I can be in and out in 30 minutes), but when I want to relax I'll be going to Aurban!

sounds awesome, and less expensive than Boardwalk (who I had been going to). I'll have to give them a try once I grow out my nails a little.
