Emily Nails - Decent for my 1st time & followed my instructions to the T. Thanks May - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Do BETTER! Very poor customer service. I had a simple request that you fix two nails. This was the work of one of your nail techs and your response is, You wait 1 hour, staff in meeting. So, it's business hours, the doors are open but you are not serving customers because all the staff are in meeting? WOW!!! Just do BETTER!!!! My only advice, spend your money where you are appreciated, which unfortunately is not EMILY NAILS! read more

Emily Nails - Chipped after one week - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The WORST service I have EVER received! Please what ever you do, DO NOT go to Emily Nails!!! The experience I had here brought me to tears because I was so unsatisfied. The man doing my nails was very rude and rushed on my nails. He couldn't do anything I asked for. I even showed him a picture of exactly how I wanted it and he told me he wasn't able to do it, I asked for a flower design and he couldn't do it. I ended up settling for all white nails because I was stressed and ready to get out of there. read more

Not my usual nail salon but out of town and in need. So too my chances. Well they don't do Gelx so I only got a pedicure. The guy that did my pedicure was very nice and efficient. Nothing fancy. It isn't the tidiest spot and I am kind of questioning how clean the items are. If you are looking for a posh spot this IS NOT IT! Pedicure was mediocre and got the job done. None the less I was in and out in less than 40 mins. I wouldn't come back. read more

Emily Nails - SPA PEDICURE 1 - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

If I could give zero stars, I would. It started badly. I changed my mind on the original polish that I had asked for, and I am assuming that upset the nail tech who did my feet. She seemed irritable and started with rude gestures and talking about me in their language. Her work was sloppy & rushed. Then she attempted to wax my brows, and the rude behavior continued. She was upset because after she leaned my head back in the chair, she wanted to throw wax on my brows without brushing them or doing anything to them. When I asked about it, she asked me if I wanted them waxed or not. I said no and got out of the chair. I wasn't going to give another dime after that. My manicure was done by a different tech, a guy. He wasn't rude, but his customer service was off, and his work wasn't great either. He put my hands in clear water with no cuticle softener or anything else. He did not soak off my gel polish. He didn't clean under my nails until I asked. I can tell he didn't appreciate me asking. He buffed my nail bed so much, the UV light burned my nails when he put them in the dryer. I'm sure my nail bed is as thin as a piece of paper now. He did not clean the polish around my cuticles. The finished product did not look fresh at all....sloppy work. I said I wasn't going back in the past, but I am soooo serious now. I'm NEVER going there again. They only want our money. They DO NOT care about their customers. It's so sad how they treat us, and we spend so much money with them. read more

The young woman was very patient and thorough. We'll visit there again very clean and service was excellent.

Emily nails was supposed to refund for an awful job done and stress when they initially didn't own up to it. I had to go through my bank for $126 which again Emily nails disputed. They only wanted to do the nails over but after reading other horrific reviews there is no way. My bank did not honor my claim. Please avoid this establishment at all costs. It's not fair at all. read more

Emily Nails - Awful awful service and they still took $126 in payment and threatened to call the police on a my college student - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The owner is very pushy and doesn't let you deny services even if your experience was poor. One of her workers began on my toes with an attitude, and I told her I was no longer interested in the service... I'll take my money elsewhere. Then, the manager came to my chair a few minutes later and insisted some man could do them better for me and completely disregarded how her worker treated me. I had specific request on the shaping of my toes and minimal acrylic powder.. but I got the exact opposite once again and everyone acted like they couldn't understand me. The man continued to try and file my toes to convince me to like the shaping; but it was terrible. I've tried to give them my service many times because it's in my community but never again. Luckily, a nice lady saw how poorly they were treating me and gifted me $40 towards my service. At least they have nice customers, lol. read more

Emily Nails - "Nails" - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I had heard good things from a few people in the area who said that they went to this nail salon to get their nails done and once I came in and they told me that the full set start at 45 I was anticipating for it to be a good set or at least a decent one. I showed him the picture of what I was looking for and unfortunately even though the colors werent an exact match, I wasn't too upset about that to make a complaint but what I was upset about is paying $70 for medium length and a crappy job. Leaving out the nail salon there was acrylic all over my hand and cuticle some of my nails are lifting one is broken already and I got these done on Saturday today is Tuesday never cheat on your nail tech this wasn't worth it just to have to pay someone else to fix it read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE!!!!, They DO NOT sanitize their instruments. During my manicure, the tech drew blood and put the instruments right back in the tray. Once he was finished with me, he went and sat in one of the spa chairs to wait for the next customer. Just imagine the cross contamination. read more

The staff is rude. They wont give the price before the service was done. I asked to sit with my child while her service has been completed and they said yes. Then different staff member came over and made me move to put a customer there. Saying it is only for customers even though there were many chairs available. It was unnecessary. read more

I have tried this nail salon several times for eyebrows and each time they made my brow thinner. Plus the shape of my brows were unevenly waxed. I tried a pedicure 1 time and I now have a severe fungus under both my big toes. They are literally green. I am now at my wits end and do not now how to handle this concern. Been to a couple of nail shops and they will not do my pedicure. read more

I've been here a few times and the best thing about Emily's is the location. Every time, it's been "something." Whether arguing with customers, loading ppl in the basins w/o a clear time for service, or the lack of cleanliness and customer service. Today was the last time for meeee. Took my visiting aunt there and she asked for a French pedicure, the lady tried to tell her to get one color. They also tried to sit us at some dirty chairs! When I asked that they be cleaned...there was clearly smack talked! I saw numerous women come in and be sat at chairs that hadn't been sanitized! In the 1.5hrs or so I was there...20 women came in. Probably making damn near $10k/day off us...do tf better‍ read more

Emily Nails - Dirty chairs - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The worst experience I've had at a nail salon in quite some time. From the 1.5 hour wait to be serviced, to the 2 hours it took to get a pedicure and full set; hands down the worst customer service in this area. The man that prepared my nails to soak, immediately took a nail clip To my pinky nail because I could protest. He assumed that my long nails where fake (tips). He apologized, but that could have very well be avoided had he asked me before reaching for his clippers. The pedicure was subpar. The tech that did my full set was obtuse yet arrogant. He did a decent job with the acrylic application but cut up my cuticles with the electrical drill. Ouch!!! Then they charged me because my nails were "long". My nails were not long enough for an extra fee (see photos) and they cut my finger and my nail. Just don't go here. There are better options in the area that appreciate their customers. read more

I appreciate Steven taking time to take off my nails that a previous technicians poorly did causing significant damage to my nails, but having to remind someone that "it's about customer service" bothered me after saying it to him 3 times. I took the suggestion of someone to come in and give this salon a try. But it looks like the Southside of Atlanta may have a plethora of some of the most horribly ran nail salons. Won't be back as they didn't seem to care if I came back or not. ~ Another One Bites The Dust! read more

I went in on a Thursday for a gel manicure. Here is why I gave them a 3 out of 5. 1. I asked to get a not opened, sanitized pack of tools. Having received an infection before from sorry tools, I am extra cautious. The nail tech rolled his eyes and said the tools are clean, then proceeded to take an opened pack of tools and spray them with alcohol. 2. My gel polish lasted only four days before they started chipping. Gel polish should last at least two weeks. 3. My tech was doing triple duty - my nails, seating other customers, and ringing people up. I was not the focus and felt rushed. I will not be returning. read more

Today I took my 4-year-old daughter to get her first pedicure. It was not a good experience, and I left feeling very disappointed. The staff members are indifferent and don't seem to make any effort where customer service is involved. They didn't care we were there, and I wish we had left, but my daughter was very excited. We were left standing around as I wondered who I should speak to about the services we came for. We were barely spoken to, but as a male staff member made eye contact with me I told him we wanted a kiddie pedicure and a polish change. He said, "You can sit over there." Over there became obvious as I scoped out the room and noticed a pink child-sized chair on the left. Unfortunaly this was the same guy who did both of our services. He was lazy and unprofessional. I had to ask him to do another coat of polish on my toes because initially, the polish was thin and slightly transparent. When it came to my daughter's pedicure, he made very little effort and was incredibly sloppy. When he slipped her shoes on he rubbed her big toe on her right foot against the shoe and the polish rubbed off. Instead of removing the smudged polish that was still on her toe, he attempted to flatten it out with his finger. Then he put another coat of polish over that. It was lumpy, and I was baffled! I said, "Excuse me, will you please remove the polish and paint that toe over?" I thought I heard him scoff, but I didn't care. I was paying for a service and I wanted it done correctly. My daughter wasn't impressed, and neither was I. Nail salons are a dime a dozen, so this isn't a situation where we have to patronize this business. I will find a shop with better customer service. I will not go where my presence is not appreciated. I will not take my daughter back to a place where she is not appreciated. I am better than that. WE are better than that. read more

For over nearly a year, I would go into the salon for a gel manicure and regular pedicure and get asked to try the dip as opposed to the gel. Today I thought I would give it a try and regret it 100%. I had to keep telling the guy doing my nails that he wasn't covering the entire nail bed and to file the dip down because it was too thick. I also had to point out all the glue under the nails. I was so involved with him that I didn't even see the mess my toes were in. The paint job was garbage. I asked to clean my toes up. She told me the mess wasn't nail polish it was skin - well even more of a reason to clean my toes up - but since I know it wasn't skin, I told her to take the polish off! She said something to the owner, who said something else to someone else and ultimately, they repainted my toes. I'm disappointed. Think I'll fall back from them for a while. I feel like when they get comfortable with you coming in and patronizing their establishment, they get start rushing and in some cases, get lazy. read more

Awful, awful, awful service. The man was texting and browsing the internet until he couldn't. As he was taking the gel polish off my nails, the debris was clouding his phone, he then BLOWS the debris on me to make sure his phone was clean. After that he starts to use the other tool on my nails (still while being concerned with being on the internet) and picked at my skin so much that he spent the whole time trying to clean the blood from my thumb while trying to paint my nails. My thumb wouldn't not stop bleeding. I know he knows what he did because he no longer was on his phone the whole time, now he was focused. I'm not sure if how he cleaned it was even sanitary. But at the end has the nerve to still ask if I want a pedicure, and charge me for the service. read more

went in for gel pedicure w/ french tip. felt rushed out of the seat, i did not receive full pedicure due to techs wanting to get customers in and out. normal pedicures usually come with lotion and massage... that was not received. hopefully they start to care more about having new returning customers instead of focusing on rushing customers in and out the door. still paid full price and tipped 15% but will not be returning. read more

This place is horrible, too. My daughter here to get her nails done and a manicure for me (man). Guessing she figured I didn't know anything. She cut all my nails extremely low or off completely. I could have stayed home and cut my nails off myself if that was the case. She barely file my daughters nail down and did a regular polish. She wanted to charge me $25 for that. Bitch u crazy, paid $8 and left. Never again read more

Emily Nails - What da hell is this - Nail Salons Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The difference between this salon and the salons on the Northside is night and day. They barely give you a real pedicure or manicure. No massaging of the legs and hands, no extreme care with your hands or feet- everything is rough because they are in a hurry to get you in and out. Just because they are located on the Southside should not mean lesser service. Particularly for a business that makes no investments in our community other than locating in the Publix Shopping Center. Find another nail salon which gives better mani and pedis for the price they charge. read more

I have tried repeatedly to give this place a try. The nail tech named Van has done my nails a half a dozen times. Usually I don't complain because I'm not that picky about a lot of things. However I'm just tired of Van bragging about how much of a perfectionist he is with everything, but he really is not and just talks a lot. Saying how much he pays attention to details and don't like doing nails too thin because they brake easily that way. Well I'll let you be the judge of my nails. The white is showing on at least 3 of my nails, they are paper thin, and one has cracked already. And what you can't see from the photos is how they bow out on the sides where he didn't file properly after putting on the tips. I just got them done Saturday afternoon, today is Monday. I will not be returning no matter how close it is to my house. Sometimes convenience of location is not worth wasting money, between SNS, pedicure, and tip I spent $120. Patronize at your own risk! read more

these people are thieves. This is the second time that my card was charged more than the amount that I signed on a receipt when I was inside of the nail salon.

No wait time but it took 2 1/2 hours for 3 days of PAIN!!! On 8/11/21, I went for a pedi and mani with my co-worker. I prefer my favorite nail salon or my best friend' shop but hey I went anyway because she offered to do something nice for me. I knew my past experiences were not great and here's why I will never return. The experience was dreadful and it only led me to another nail salon (my main one) to fix all that was wrong with my nails. My feet were great but there were some hiccups there. While enjoying a conversation with my co-worker, a nail tech that didn't touch my feet impatiently ran to me two mins after getting the wax on my feet. She wanted me to move to the nail table immediately! Who do you know that can walk on waxed feet in a plastic bag? I'll wait ... NOBODY!!! Then she wanted me to step into my ballerina slippers? Clearly, the decision was not a bright one. She don't care! I could have fallen and she wouldn't cared. I told her I can't walk and what's the rush?? This lady said it's time for your nails. I told not if I can't walk! What are you doing? I sat down and the wax was completely removed from my feet! The nail tech didn't want to do it over and we explained the service was incomplete. I became upset! How another nail tech interrupts my service? I'm not your customer! What was the purpose? I get to the nail table, to get snipped, cut and pinched! I have natural nails! This guy doesn't have a clue how to do nails. They were uneven, some nails fat and bulky! I asked for narrow stilettos and got a combination of CLOWN NAILS!! I was truly pissed! He wouldn't listen to me and give me what I asked for. Yesterday I went to my favorite nail salon on Old National and she asked me to never go Emily's again. I assured her I won't! I go to work and my hands spoke Emily's! My other co-workers said this place is the worst. They went once and didn't return. On this same day, my toe was aching, and three of my fingers. So I've been applying antibiotics ointments to all locations that were in pain! I will never return! read more

Horrible experience! When I asked how much my nails would cost, they always seem to be a different price at checkout. I was stared down and the nail tech try to intimidate me. He said he already told me once but he was never clear to start. I advised him I'm willing and able to pay that's not the issue I just wanted to make sure that I was charged appropriately. He was rude and unprofessional and treated me as a poor black girl who didn't want to pay for my nails. When I brought this to the management's attention they said they would let the owner know and did not offer to discount or make my experience better. My nails are crooked the acrylic was not laid correctly and overall I'm just unhappy with the experience. I tried giving this place a chance more than once. This was it for me I do not recommend anyone go here It don't value you and do an awful job! read more

I just had a terrible customer service experience at Emily Nail shop in the Publix shopping plaza at Campbellton and Fairburn Rd. I was quoted one price then charged another !!!

That was my first and last time there !!! read more

Went on a Saturday, had polish on my toes nails (not gel) asked the tech to not use a drill because it'd damage my toe nails. She got an attitude, packed her cart and walked off. Then another lady came to do my finger nails and she wanted to cut them down when I only wanted a fill. I decided it was time to go, but 3 people stood over me telling me to stay. So beyond my better judgment I did. That same night one mail cracked off, 2 nails gel paint was peeling. My nails are bumpy and have dips. When I returned for a repair they wanted me to wait until the same crappy tech finished with a clients hands and feet before she fixed mine. When I left because I don't have the time and shouldn't have to wait l, the lady chased me out of the store trying to get me to come back and then chased me to my car after I refused to wait or return again. read more

I would give negative 5 stars if I could! The only positive comment about this place is Van...good luck with getting an appt with him. I tried giving this salon another chance after walking out 2 years ago...because they are convenient to my job. But never again!! 2nd service in 3 weeks...spending $70 each visit. This is my third nail repair and the tech wanted to argue about my nails not being evenly coated. And then left me at the table to go outside for a smoke!! The staff, minus Van, are rude!!! They do not care about customer service and quite honestly aren't worth paying the for the convenience of their location. Go to All Star Nails on Northside Dr!! read more

Entered establishment at 7:30 PM and a guy came in behind me and said they were closed. The open sign was lout and the store hours said closing time was 8PM. I told the guy I only needed a color change; he replied that they take the last customer at 7pm. I asked him if he could get someone to do it or not. There were 2 people finishing their feet and one tech just sitting there. He said he would go ahead and do it. He used the drill to remove my polish and scraped my cuticle. When he scraped my cuticle again I told him that he was hurting me and felt it was on purpose. He then grabbed my hang nail with his nails and was going to pull it until I stopped him and demanded that he get cuticle clippers to cut it and to stop rushing and do my polish correctly. We were almost done by 7:50 and one woman was still there finishing her toes. She left a couple Minutes before me as I was finishing drying. We were completely done by the posted closing time! I let him know how I did not appreciate that he was being rude and unprofessional when it was time to pay. He apologized to me and said his child had a fever and he needed to get home. I told him that I hope his child is ok and went on to explain I'd just flew back in town from my mother's funeral and wanted to get fresh polish as my nails were a mess after being gone for weeks. I could have left and went somewhere else but after the service was started, I should expect that it is finished and in a professional manner. If Emily's wants to continue doing business in MY neighborhood, then I demand good service. You don't get to disrespect me and then take my money! read more

The laziest LUXURY pedicure I have ever experienced! The description included an extended massage from knee to foot with your choice of scented lotion; that didn't happen. The only thing the tech said to me was "big shoes. What size shoe do you wear?" Overall, the staff didn't seem to respect "us" within this community. They were very matter of fact and just plain rude. I would suggest cultural adjustment training for all employees. I won't be back. Oh! And clean the dirty dingy restroom! read more

The first time I went they did a good job. However, I went today and I am truly disappointed.
