My husband and I went for a couples foot massage. Other than being seated in a separate area…read moreseparated by a curtain there wasn't anything romantic about it per se and the seats were pretty far apart so much so we couldn't interact/hold hands while waiting to have the massages start. Once the massage commences we became to relaxed to care so it wasn't a big deal but I think in the future I'll request we be closer and I'll certainly ask for more blankets as I was cold most of the session until I finally spoke up. My massage therapist never asked if I was comfortable, if the water pressure was okay as I had requested HOT, but the water in the bucket was more lukewarm so again, right from the beginning I had to ask for the water to be warmer. My husband said his therapist asked him a few times about his comfort level and his bucket of water was the temperature he requested. We arrived just on time which I would suggest they remind or let guests know to come early to sign in, It's possible they did but for some reason they only contacted my husband to confirm the appointment and not me. I made the appointment and provided both of our numbers; so I'm not sure what the general policy is but for future I'll too will make sure they do any confirmation or pre-visit/massage communication with me because he never even told me they had been sending him confirmation or messages so I just assumed that was not part of their protocol until the day we were driving there he had mentioned he had confirmed the appointment the day before. Initially I made the mistake of thinking they were still located in Braselton across from the Chateau Elan as a friend has taken me once before. I'm not sure why I never made the connection they had moved or I had scheduled it in Athens but obviously that's a longer drive so we had to reschedule the first appointment due to my mistake and they were very accommodating and kind and we didn't receive any charges due to the fact we rescheduled and came in to make up the appointment. The navigation to the spa was a bit challenging as they are hidden in a corner of a busy shopping center so planning for that and parking is another thing we will need to prepare for when we return as that was a good 10 min making us walk in right at the time of our appointment instead of early. The boutique store in the spa has some amazing and unique one of a kind finds for helping you create an at home spa feeling with their cozy robes and products. We wish we had a beverage of some kind included in the service, even a cup of water as massages can be dehydrating and encouraging hydration after should be considered by offering a complimentary flavored cup of water. The form asked if we wanted a beverage but not a mention of price so I checked thinking we would have been brought one but afterwards was told by the front desk staff that usually they will ask what kind upfront but due to us being late the therapist must not have seen we wished for one (which we walked in right at the time the appointment was booked but remember the pre-massage form took a few minutes); which explains why they didn't have the water temperature correct and made me feel as if why did we need to spend time completing the information if it wasn't even read or acknowledged. I saw them bringing beverages to others well after we sat down so my thoughts on that were the therapist could have asked the front staff to help accommodate this request for us. At check out, I asked about it and she explained per above and my husband said he was fine not receiving it after the fact and I asked if I could be given the choices and was it part of the service we just didn't receive and she then explains no; it was an additional cost (but that's not noted on the form where it was asked so I was under the impression it was something extra and was looking forward to it; so I was a little bummed about the entire transaction afterwards because she made me feel as if we were super late and that due to that the overlooked the check mark but in my mind; they overlooked us altogether and this is just a fast in and out; no special feelings of being pampered except during the treatment. The Treatment itself for me I believe was okay, nothing out of the ordinary and I did leave a little more relaxed. I wish she would have asked about what pressure (soft, medium or hard) I preferred but that too was never discussed and at times it felt too soft where more pressure would have been nice. My husband said his therapist asked him a few times if the pressure was good and if he was comfortable. Mine did not but she was cordial and nice, and did her "job" but nothing extra. The head massage combs for being new guests as a nice touch

I got the 60 minute signature message and was very underwhelmed. There is a lot of wasted time…read moreduring your 60 minute time slot. From calling your name into the massage room 2-3 minutes after your appointment time, to ending the massage a few minutes early. Also, once you enter the massage room, your massage therapist will introduce/ask/talk to you about your massage, then they leave again to gather the water bucket for your feet soak. (They should have this ready for you, why waste time?) The massage started 8 minutes past the hour. Then a few minutes later, they stop remove the water bucket. They start the massage again, then leave again for a warm eye mask. Then start the massage again, then stop again for a hot towel to wipe your feet, then stop again, to take back the towel. So in actuality the massage is really 40-45 min with all the stops and gos. Lastly, I have been here twice, and hoped the second time would have a better outcome. Both times the therapist is very slow, barely apples any pressure after being asked to on the card you fill out before you enter the appointment, and I verbalize it to the therapist. Overall, it's a very lazy massage and no relief from soreness, discomfort or pain. Just enjoy your feet getting wet.

I don't like change when it comes to the companies I choose for self-care services. I recently…read moremoved to the Lawrenceville area and that drive to my former nail spa in McDonough has become an inconvenience. So I decided to take a leap of faith and search Google for nail salon near me, sorting by highest reviews. I am extremely particular about my manicures and pedicures. Everything matters to me from the establishment's sanitary habits, to how they're shaped and filed, to how closely the colors match since I use dipping powder for my nails and regular polish on my toes, and more. I chose Mickey Nail and Spa because they have a 4.7 rating on Google, with almost 400 reviews. That definitely demonstrates consistency IMO. Further research showed this establishment was formerly Zen Nail Spa but it's under new management, and the reviews are still good. Reading through the reviews, the name Julie came up often. Also, on the FB page, most of the photos displayed are of her work so I chose to make my Dipping Powder w/ extensions appointment with her. I was 2 minutes late for my appointment because I couldn't find it on Maps (iOS). Turns out they still list the establishment as Zen Nails Spa but I found it (Mickey) when I switched over to Google Maps. The parking lot is shared with a church but there are designated parking spaces for the nail spa. Those signs also still say Zen Nail Spa. The reception is right there upon entering the establishment. The choice of music is very relaxing and the incense is calming as well. I suffer from year-round allergies and asthma, and the scent did not bother me at all. Mickey greeted me, checked me and, and confirmed my services I told him the person doing m pedicure should not be someone who is too gentle as I like a strong massage, and he suggested Bing. He asked me to have a seat while they got my pedicure seat ready and I was called back a few minutes later. The area is small, with about 5 or 6 spa pedicure chairs. The lights were dimmed, the music was subtle, and the TV was on a Netflix baking show, with low volume. I was offered a water nice seated. I still chose the $60 pedicure which included an additional 20 minute reflexology massage, and added a paraffin wax for $10. Another woman (i think her name was Rita), soaked my current nails to remove the dipping powder while Bing started my pedicure. Both ladies were very polite, as was Mickey. Julie joined me about 15 minuted in, and started on my nails. She helped me choose a color and let me know that while they have a matching dipping powder/Gel/regular polish set, the dipping powder us slightly darker than the gel/regular polish. I was ok with that as that is usually the case, but I am glad she mentioned it as she should have. I told her the shape I wanted and she showed me the first one to ensure it was to my liking which it was. I have a small nail bed so I like my nails narrow and almond with a slightly round tip (not oval but not too pointy). She nailed it (pun intended lol). The total for my nails was $55 which is a great price for soak-off, dipping powder w/ extensions, and paraffin wax. Bing had me nodding off because my pedicure was amazing. She used a timer when commencing the reflexology. The last part of my pedicure before polish was the paraffin wax at which point Bing stepped away and Julie completed my polish. She asked me to stay in the chair with the fan on my toes if I have time, to ensure my toes are completely dry. All-in-all, I had a great experience. I was thanked for my business multiple times by everyone, but especially by Micky and Julie. In addition to being satisfied the services rendered, I was definitely impressed with their customer service. Though the establishment is small, it definitely feels very Zen. The staff is warm and inviting, and the owner is as well. I am so glad I gave them a try and I will be back. I will update future reviews to advise if my positive experience is consistent.
