Sooji Nails and Day Spa

I don’t understand the negative reviews about Sooji! The spa is always very clean and all of the estheticians are friendly and professional. I go to them for the occasional treat in the form of a spa pedicure or gel manicure, and they always do a fantastic job. I even went there for a gel manicure before my wedding, and it was chip-​free for three weeks! Can’t say enough good things, and I love that they’re only a mile away from my house!

My first time here was very nice, there was a small wait time. Nails looked great, but they did try to up sale me multiple times on gel nail and a clear polish that makes «the polish stay on longer and stay shiny», which can be annoying. Normal pedicure and manicure didn’t break the bank. Second time was even better, Wendy was amazing! She didn’t try to up sale me at all, was very nice, and nails looked great. $ 45 for a deluxe pedicure which includes stuff like massage and hot stone, and $ 5 for a simple polish change on nails. I live close by so will try a third time and see how it goes, would love for this to be my regular nail place.

I made my appointment the first time and called because I needed further directions on my way there and was told that Sooji was not there. I asked why they didn’t call me and they said that they just found out ten minutes ago, (9 minutes too late for not calling me to let me know) so I turned around and went home. I made another appointment for today for 11am. I got there and it was very busy. So I sat down and waited. Several people left since they did not want to wait. Sooji took me back at 1125am. The facial was satisfactory, but she kept telling me that I needed to have my eyebrows waxed and I kept saying no. She asked several times.
She put some «rubber» cream stuff on my eyes. I didn’t want anything applied to my eyes and she should have asked me first. I had to wait until it «dried» to have it removed from my eyes. I came in for a facial, not eye treatments. She left the room several times while having me lay there with «stuff» on my face. She ended the facial at about 45 — 50 minutes length. I read that the facial was supposed to last 1 hour and 15 minutes. I asked her about this and she said that since I didn’t have allot of blackheads, that the facial is shorter. I objected to having to pay full price for this «shortened» version of a facial. Felt that I was taken advantage of with this shortened length of time. They should not advertise to pay $ 70 for an hour and 15 minute facial when it is not accurate.

Love this salon. Everybody Who works here is so accommodating. They always make sure that I’m extremely comfortable and help me if I need something due to the fact I am in a wheelchair. They’ve never made me feel awkward or like they could not service me (which has happened at other places in the past)… in fact they make me feel extremely welcome and seem happy every time I come there. It’s my # nail salon in Atl. Thank you ladies

Where to begin… I went here Saturday after work– they close at 7 and I started services around 5:30pm– i had a wonderful pedicurist Hannah– who did a wonderful job on my feet– a great massage in my legs and the pedi looked great– then it was time for me to get a filling the girl that did my nails kept asking me «why are your hands sweaty?» My response– sometimes they get clammy it will pass– she KEPT asking so I turned the fan on as not to hear her complaining– She told me it costs $ 3 to repair a broken nail– and I had 2 then I asked if they had rhinestones (just wanted 1 on each pinky) she told me $ 1.00 each!!! Ummm no! Not that serious (for one rhinestone get outta here!) no thats not «alot» but it’s principle! I knew this was gonna cost me around $ 50 and planned on tipping $ 10.00– the chick brings me the receipt to sign and hovers over me saying DONT FORGET TIP! The look on my face was priceless– she hovered over me pointing at the tip line– i asked could she back up she still hovered so I wrote $ 4.00! Really I wanted to only tip the wonderful pedicurist Hannah, but I only had a debit card– so the chick says «only $ 4 for both of us» i retorted: tips are optional NOT mandatory– and I dont think you deserved one–
They need to do a good paint job in there (not up to par to be in 30 339!) and they need to teach customer service– uugghh they have a wall of nail polish– on a back wall and patrons drying their nails right in front of it– how on earth can I look at the colors efficiently when someone is sitting in front of them? It’s convenient to me– but i wont go back– I dont like attitudes when im paying for a service! As far as the job they did– it all looks pretty good– just the «extraness» was unnecessary… Good luck if you go!

I went here after work on a Friday for the first time. They were fairly busy, but honest on wait times. I waited about 10 minutes and noticed that it appeared a bit more upscale than your normal nail salon. The techs have on aprons with their names and the décor is much nicer. I got a gel manicure with Jessica and love it. It’s a bit pricier than other places — $ 30 for the gel manicure. I’ll try the pedicure next time. Depending on the outcome — I may have finally found a nail place that I can come to regularly. If you are looking for a place, I would give this one a try.

i think sooji is terrific! the women are all extremely nice and friendly and it is kept very clean. the manicure & pedicures have been excellent. it’s the best nail salon i’ve been to in over 20 years of getting my nails done! highly recommend sooji! jane s.

I have been going to Sooji for about two years out of convenience. There pedicures used to be enjoyable but now they seem to be too quick and not as thorough as other pedicures i have gotten. Recently, I went in to get my acrylic nails filled, i have had acrylic nails for a very long time. Every time I had my acrylic nails done at sooji they fell off. I just got my nails done Friday night, and one is about to fall off any second now. I guess that’s what I get for paying $ 15 bucks for acrylic.
Also, there’s this crazy esthetician who will tell you have bushy eyebrows and that you need to get your eyebrows waxed there. I would never let her touch my brows. you should see her arches!
If your looking for a quick, quiet, clean pedicure go here, but I would never go back for acrylic nails.
