Super friendly and attentive! They helped me pick out a good spring color and were happy to add a little bling for my sparkly side!

I broke a nail today and I went to this salon for the first time ever to get it repaired. Dreary looking salon.. Anyway, The woman said it would be $10.00 to repair ONE NAIL. I asked her why since a full set is not THAT much more. She didn't answer. Then I just said.. OK whatever. . I'll pay you the $10.00. Then she said.. just go somewhere else. I said.. are you kidding Me? She didn't answer. I said.. No problem. I left.. went up the street .. and paid $5.00 How rude are those women though! I will never go back to First Lady nail salon again. Read Less

I've only gotten pedicures and eyebrow waxing. The pedicure is amazing. Very relaxing and they always do a great job. Eyebrow waxing is also great.

I don't usually go here for my eyebrows, but my regular place was closed, so I tried it based on good reviews of other people who have gone. Very upset with my eyebrow wax... I asked for a basic clean up, nothing extra taken off, bare minimum. My thicker eyebrows are very thin now. Basically reshaped the whole brow. Took off way too much. I guess I'm more upset that I feel like I wasn't really listened to. Read Less

The best pedicure I've had. Very gentle & thorough. The massage was amazing & the gentleman I had didn't talk my ear off the whole time. I was able to relax the entire time. Will definitely be back.

This is the BEST spa in the area. It is calm, relaxing, and quiet. I have been to many other salons that have kids running around and the atmosphere is always too bright and chaotic - you won't find that at Nova. I don't understand the few bad reviews since the owner and her employees are always doing their best to please the customer. That can't be easy. I never see them rest (or eat or play on their phone!) - they focus on their clients. I can't tell you how many OTHER sa...lons I have visited that rush you through their services and charge considerably more. I have been going here for the past 5+ years, every month, and my nails are always beautiful. If you are in a rush for a pedicure, then make an appointment and let them know you have limited time. Otherwise, enjoy yourself! They are very busy on the weekends so it's best if you call ahead. Nova is a great spa! आणखी पहा Read Less

I got a gel manicure. This salon is plain vintage simple and affordable if you need a mani for $25.  Nothing fancy. No lotions. No hand massages. Salon is old., outdated. They do pedicures with feet in a bucket of water. Very old school. There a 2 really nice new spa chairs in the back  that were not in use. Up side: staff is friendly and for the most part you can understand their English. My mani is okay. Nothing spectacular. But you get what you pay for.  I wish I would have spent this extra $10 to get a full service mani. They don't do a feature nail, no nail art. I think what shocked me the most was when the tech started picking my old gel manicure off my nail by hand without soaking! I stopped her and had to ask for a acetone foil wrap. First Lady is not for me. I'm used to a higher quality service. Read Less

Just posted this on Google and wanted to spread the love. I've been living in nearby Plano for about 3 years now, and discovered this place around that time. Honestly I'm really surprised by some of the the negative google reviews of this place as I have always received fantastic service here. Maybe they reviewed the wrong place? In any case - the pedicures are heavenly (I always go for the Deluxe), the manicures last for weeks and weeks on end (despite my brutal treatmen...t of my hands at work), and the people are always really friendly. I like this place so much that I've thrown alternative bachelorette parties for my friends with Nova as our first stop. (Last time I did it was two weeks before my friend's wedding, and her nails were still perfect by her wedding day!) The pricing is actually really reasonable for the service you get, and in my experience the pricing itself is never a surprise, since they give you very clear and easy-to-read menu cards with their pricing info and service descriptions. And they also go above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable while getting your stuff done - from really amazing massage chairs to offering you something to drink (like water, lemonade, coffee, etc) - they know how to treat their customers well. Also, the mood in the place is very quiet and relaxing. For a newly pregnant mom-to-be, being able to go somewhere quiet to relax and be completely pampered without making my wallet cry, this place is a gem. Thanks Nova! I rarely ever write reviews of places, but you guys deserve it! आणखी पहा Read Less

Got solar nails and pedicures here for years and was always happy with results. Then got sucked in to another place that was a bit fancier and more expensive. I enjoyed going there, too, but the thing is, they didn't seem to care whether I came back or not.  Didn't know my name after 3 years and never, ever, said "thanks for coming."  I got tired of shelling out the bucks to people who just didn't care. When I went back to First Lady on a whim with no appointment, they greeted me by name! Nails salons come and go but First Lady is still there doing a great job because they know the meaning of customer service.  I'm definitely a fan.February 2016 - Just want to update and raise my initial rating to 5 stars.  I'm at First Lady every other week for pedicure and attention to my nails. Recently decided to try to let my nails grow out without using acrylic.  Vivian is so helpful with this endeavor.  Daisy's pedicures leave my feet tingling with joy (yes, there is such a thing as feet that tingle with joy). Other staff members always friendly, too. Prices are right and skills are great. Can't beat it! Read Less
