Been coming to Joy Nails I & II for the longest time and couldn’t be happier with the quality of the services!
I love to go get spoiled there and just relax! My husband now comes with me for pedicures also. Great clean place and such a nice staff.
The wife and I came in for a pedicure. Excellent service, even for a very busy day, they were able to fit us in immediately. After the parifin pedicure and massage, my feet feel better than they have in years. Highly recommend.
This was the first time I got my eye brows tinted and they are perfect! Caroline did my eyebrows. I love them!! Three of us got pedicures and they were amazing! This is a five start place with exceptional service.
Loved the team at joy nails. They did my manicure and pedicure at the same time. Fast and efficient! Favorite nail place in Galveston
Caroline is the best owner, nail tech. I have been her customer for over 20 years. She's very pleasant and professional at all times.
A friendly staff, a cleaned store, good services.
On vacation and dropped in to spoil my lady. Read the reviews but once we stepped in they were fast friendly and efficient. Her nails look great! Detail oriented.
Anne is so great- relaxing and competent I’ve enjoyed going to Joy Nails on Seawall - can not wait for new location - but until then Joy Nails on 61st is clean and beautiful
I wish I could add more stars!!! Definitely worth the visit. Everyone was so kind, friendly, and professional. If you’re in the area, don’t pass it up!
Consistent friendly welcoming and fair price 2 love this place always happy!!
I’ve been coming to Joy’s nails for a few years now Ms Caroline , Tina ,Tom & Ben have always taking care of me. They are great at what they do and work very hard please come out and check them out
Jasmine is the kindest and most talented nail technician. She makes sure you are comfortable and always listens to my requests. If you want a place that is clean, friendly, and full of great talent, then Joy Nails is for you. Ask for Jasmine. You will have a delightful time.
Love these folks, all are very friendly and very good at their jobs. I drive an hour just to get them to do my nails.
Such an awesome environment! I came in as a walk-in several months ago and was treated as though I'd been coming for years! I'm very picky but they didn't treat me as being difficult! That's a HUGE PLUS! Ben and Tina are the best! Everyone there really are exceptionally awesome! Gonna stick with them for years to come!
This place is wonderful. I come here every month for a quick touch up on my feet and eyebrows. Nice people, quiet environment, and nice prices. I highly recommend coming here for a mani pedi or just to get your eyebrows done.💞
Beat nail place on the Island by far!
I have had the worst experience I have ever experienced for wax never go again at this place the lady who was doing my waxed she don’t even know how to apply it and it seems looks like she don’t want to do Waxing on people and she was sent by someone forcefully. Also they charge 70$ Just for half leg wax and under…
