What customers said about hand & foot massages
Bell Nails & SpaVisited this shop while on vacation on Tuesday November 3rd.had a manicure which only lasted over night polish pealed off. 50 pedicure that the polish was wasn't even and in a blob on one toe. Didn't have time to return to the shop. Was very disappointed in my service
Nail and Spa of TexasThe service is always amazing! No matter who is doing your nails you will always be happy! Very warm and welcoming with good prices!
Nail and Spa of TexasHands down the BEST on the island! I did not have an appointment- and I was immediately served- on a Saturday morning!
Nail and Spa of TexasI've tried quite a few nail salons on the island, and this one is by far my favorite! I've been coming here for two years now, and the service and quality of their work have been consistently excellent. They offer a great variety of services at very reasonable prices, and I love all the little extras that make each…
Nail and Spa of TexasMy very favorite nail spa! They are so friendly and go above and beyond to make each visit a treat! I highly recommend them!
Nail and Spa of TexasTexas Nail Spa is my favorite salon for my nails, eyebrows, and massages. Jenny, Oahn, and Lynn always provide excellent care and detail. Nina is also so fantastic!!

How we grade
Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.
Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.
Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.
Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.
Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
