Identifying myself as a cisgender (gay) male, going to a nail salon alone can sometimes be intimidating. However, the ladies in this salon are very welcoming and kind. They take the time to really take care of you and even actually get to know you. Especially with their price point, (basic color & manicure was $14) I'm definitely coming back here. Thanks ladies! read more

Soon's Spa - Skin Care Near Me - South Slope, New York

Good but not great place for a manicure and pedicure. Convenient location and hardworking people but nothing very special.

I took a chance on this place when my normal spot didn't have any openings for two days. I feel bad for writing a bad review when the girl who helped me was so nice but my manicure was rough. To begin with, Covid safety rating would be low. She used an already used nail file on me. Non sterilized tools as well. The manicure itself is just okay. There are a bunch of particles from the air that got caught under my polish. So it just looks a mess, also the filing job wasn't great so around the edges of my nail it's rough. What really made me upset was I asked to not cut my cuticles. She said she understood and that she doesn't cut hers either. She proceeded to ask me if she could cut one small section, I agreed but then she tried to sneakily cut other fingers cuticles as well. I literally told you I didn't want that done so why do it!?!?!? I would just rather wait for my normal place to have a spot open up. read more

Literally the worst manicure I've ever had. Came in to rejuvenate my hands after a long week. They charged $18 for mani /buff and there was no washing involved. They just put lotion on. I had to ask them to clean under my nails before leaving. It shocking this place is even open. read more

Always do a great job. I don't do gel, only regular manis n pedis but always very nice .Big plus in my neighborhood.A little pricey but the rents are crazy around here read more

Excellent service and the best hand and foot massages of any salon I've been to. Incredibly clean, too with great massage chairs. Love this gem of a salon. read more

Awesome little nail spa! I went in last minute and they fit me in for a pedicure. The women are so nice, efficient, and make your nails look beautiful. The woman that painted my nails even suggested a color that turned out SO nice. Very quiet and great experience. Thank you Soon's Spa!!:) read more

Went for what I expected to be a standard European facial, and left disappointed. There was no steam used--at all--even prior to extractions. Cold scratchy towels and dry tissues were used to remove product. There was no neck, shoulder or hand massage as would typically be the case for this kind of service (ONE of these things, at least, are present in any facial of this kind I've ever had). Paid $80 plus tip, lasted less than 45m. Had really hoped to find a great spot closer to home, but it looks like I'm better off trekking to Bay Ridge to a spot that does an actual Euro facial, body scrub & wrap and sauna session for the same price. read more

Dropped in for a basic manicure. Kelly did a great job, she was quick but still very thorough and the polish lasted for a week without chipping. (Normally I reapply a top coat on the 3rd day and by day 5 I'm starting to get chips). Good selection of colors too. read more

I've been coming here for at least 3 years and it's my go-to spot when I have to get my nails or eyebrows done. Yes, it's a bit price-r than your average nail salon but it's worth it. All their instruments are very clean and sterile. Everyone is very friendly. It's a cozy spot. I used to get gel manis here and those are excellent as well. read more

Wow, I now know what a perfect manicure is in New York! Moved here a few months ago and have been to my share of subpar nail salons that do mediocre work at best. I was in the neighborhood and stopped by Soon's salon and spa and am so glad that I did. I had one of the best manicures ever! The gel manicure was perfect, natural looking, not thick, not a drop of polish near the skin, or build up of polish around the cuticles. I was so so impressed with the job that the young lady did. She was friendly and focused and the prices are very comparable to many of the salons I have visited. They have a wide variety of polishes as well. I have finally found my nail salon! read more

I don't write negative reviews, but needed to make an exception in this case. I came here with my friend today. We were the only patrons at the time. Everything was fine until I went to dry my nails. I had been at the dryer for less than ten minutes talking very quietly with my friend. Soon walked over and said, "Are you going to keep talking, or are you dry?" I thought she was joking, but then she forcefully grabbed my hands and added, "You're dry, time to leave" and literally opened the door and ushered us out. I looked at my friend and we realized we had been kicked out of the nail salon. We immediately regretted our generous cash tip. I asked if I had been talking loudly, but we were very quiet. It was the oddest experience and honestly, I would not go back. There was also a mosquito inside that ate our ankles alive. Icing on the cake. read more

This is what happens when you cheat on your nail salon. You get a terrible pedicure! So...I decided out of convenience to try this salon for a pedicure and what a mistake. There is a sign that says 10% off if you pay in cash. The woman who I assume was the owner explained to me that the pedicure is $28 and the 10% is the tax. WHAT?!? Just a simple scam but more importantly is the quality of the pedicure which was just terrible. The technician rushed through the pedicure without tending to the basics like cutting cuticles and polishing only on the toe nails. I could have done a better job myself. As a original Brooklynite I will stay with my neighborhood salon and not one that can scam newcomers to the trendy neighborhoods. read more

I had wonderful experience here!!!!! Albeit a bit on the pricey side, you get what you pay for: -very professional and fast staff -soft music -very clean -Kelly the manager is BEYOND awesome and is super friendly and relatable :-). I am soo happy that this place replaced the old nail salon and will definitely will be making this my regular spot to get my nails done. Thank Soon's for being a part of this neighborhood :-) read more

Although the technician was very nice, for $30 I could've filed my own nails and bought several bottles of polish. Didn't do any smoothing of my feet at all , just applied a bunch of creams & lotions. Also the polish or dry coat must've been cheap because it was chipped an hour later. read more

I love this place‼ It's so clean. The staff is so friendly. I love my painted toes. It's a great neighborhood place. I also treated myself to a 10 minute massage...so relaxing. read more

See all

This salon takes the time to do pedicures properly. They are a small salon with a personalized touch. Slightly more expensive than a bigger nail salon but their service is worth it! read more

This place is so clean and relaxing..... I love it. My nails came out beautiful and the ladies were so nice and good at everything that they did... This is now my go to. Lama is amazing at massaging and making your nails look perfect and I see people complain about the price in some of the reviews but it's really worth it read more

Very clean local nail spot with great service. Staff is friendly and they do a nice job. I've recently started getting my brows done here as well and I've been pleased with the results. read more

I had a rather nice manicure my first time here about 2 months ago. Which is why I went back today for a mani, pedi and eyebrow wax. I left after the pedicure, by far the worst I've ever had! I wasn't there to get a new polish, just a cuticle trim and heel scrub. I asked the attendant NOT to cut the sides of my toenails (because I'm susceptible to ingrown nails). She nodded that she understood, then cut them anyway. There were no hot towels, the scrub was short and mediocre and there was nail polish still on my toenails when I left. The $28 for this regular pedicure was a total RIP-OFF. The manager made no attempt to address my dissatisfaction (afterall, I had walked in as a previously happy customer). I'm returning to my favorite salons on Church Ave and 7th Ave...better and kinder service for less money, and much more attractive interiors. read more

Just moved here and needed a nail salon. Came across this place. Super friendly staff and very clean! Just make sure you have cash for a tip! read more

$30 for a pedicure! Beware ladies. I didn't see a price chart when I walked in but I never thought a pedicure would cost more than $20 in this area. I'm never coming here again! The pedicure is not worth $30. read more

based on the reviews I thought I should try this place, and it's very close to home. I always get CND vynilux, but this is the first time I've been charged $50 extra for both the mani &pedi. At over $55 for a mani & pendi I'd hope for at least a foot massage. When I arrived there was no one there, yet they rushed through the services and I was in and out in under an hour. they did a horrible job on my cuticles and didn't do anything for my clauses. and that $10 extra I paid for the 7 day polish was a wast because it was so thick that it didn't fully dry before I went to bed 4 hours later... needless to say by the morning the polish was mess. I feel like the other reviews aren't even the same place. I will never go back to Soon's. even if they were giving away free services it's a bad deal. Oh and if you want to use a credit card it 10% more than cash. that would have pushed my mani/pedi to close to $70. I'm glad I had cash. read more

Very glad to find them, and great hours! I had little hope of getting a manicure, pedi and some facial wax work at 7:15 on a Saturday but lo and behold there they were. Friendly, courteous, professional and wifi on request, I have to say I'm a very happy customer. read more

This place is so close to my apartment so I had to check in out. I've had 1 regular manicure here and 2 CND gels, and the gel manicure got me hooked. The first one lasted for 3 weeks! I went back a couple days ago for my second, and the woman was able to file my nails into a beautiful almond shape and they came out looking fantastic. Only reason why I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the price is pretty steep ($30 for a gel when I can get $25 in my hometown, and $12 for a regular mani is too much for me) and the brief complementary massages are quickly followed with asking you to pay for one. Other than that they do great work and are very nice to their customers, will def return for another gel! read more

Love Soon. They are the nicest and their fantastic. I would highly recommend them. Calling ahead will save time to make sure you'll be seen right away since the store is small but the quality is high and the people are very friendly. read more

Shocked that my mani pedi was over $40 dollars today. Didn't see any prices posted but didn't expect it to well exceed the neighborhood standard. They also rushed me out at 7:56 when they closed at 8. Didn't feel very welcomed and didn't seem like they wanted my business going forward. Probably won't go back. read more

I would not recommend this salon. First of all they make you pay mid manicure which is uncomfortable and Not relaxing,they take cards but told me I did not meet the minimum, so I went to the ATM and got cash after which they told me a different price which did meet the minimum and so turns out I ran to the ATM for no reason. Manicure was mediocre, looked kind of sloppy and atmosphere is not pleasant. Overall I did not feel relaxed nor welcome here. read more

Update: still fantastic. I've been coming here for years and it's consistently great. My gel manicures last for 3 weeks!

I have been going to Soon's Spa since they opened for weekly manicures and bi-monthly pedicures. I absolutely love the staff and the owner Kelly is very kind, professional, and friendly. Yes, the pricing is not as low as other places, but it's worth it. Every tool used is clean, the ambiance and music is soothing, and my manicures last much longer than other places. Oh, and they also provide free quick dry. Pro tip: if you go M-Th before noon, a manicure/pedicure is $28 which is a great deal for the experience. Lastly, if you're looking for a back or shoulder massage during or after your manicure, I can promise you it's worth it. Kelly and her staff are true professionals. read more

Soon's is a fantastic little nail salon. The staff really takes their time with each customer - unlike some salons whose focus is getting as many customers in and out, I've never felt like they are just going through the motions. Additionally, the store and all their tools are impeccably clean. I highly recommend a chair massage too - I never leave without one. read more

Friendly staff, clean and pleasant salon. Got a traditional pedicure, there was no whirlpool foot bath, no massage chair but a decent pedicure. Was shocked at the price, $28!?!?! I had to ask twice because I thought she must have made a mistake, I really felt taken advantage of but guess I should have asked first (prices were not listed). It's unfortunate, I would not go back because of this. read more

Love Soon Spa, Lama, Kelly and Maria are amazing! I go every two weeks for a spa mani and pedi the massage alone is so worth it. I feel so relaxed and my nails and feet look and feel great! Thank you ladies! read more

I have a nail place I go to for pedicures and manicures that I have been loyal to for years, but I absolutely *love* Kelly's massage at Soon's Spa. She is one of the best masseuses I have ever encountered. She can quickly locate my trouble spots before I even open my mouth and is very good at working them out. Highly recommend! read more

Soon's is really wonderful. It is the cleanest, tidiest nail salon I've ever been in, and the service is pleasant and extremely efficient. I let them know that I was in a hurry and they went above and beyond to make sure my manicure and pedicure was done in record time. I don't even live nearby, but I will be sure to come back when I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Soon Spa is excellent. I go there every three weeks for my pedicure and gel manicure. The staff is very friendly, they know me, remember my aesthetic preferences, always ask about my daughter which is super sweet. They will go the extra mile if needed - when Im in a rush towards the end of their business hours they will always accommodate / stay late / engage extra staff to get it done. Soon readily donated services for last years local school fundraiser. On top of being an excellent service provider, they are also supporting the local community which means a lot. read more

Absolutely in love with the place. Great service and friendly atmosphere! Would definitely come back again!! read more

Soon's Spa - Skin Care Near Me - South Slope, New York

$28 for a pedicure?!? There was no massage, no special services or additional treatments. No pricing listed anywhere. When I politely questioned this price I was told of a multi-tiered pricing structure dependent on day of week and time of day. (This was 2pm on a Tuesday.) Lastly, I was curtly told that it was my fault for not asking before hand. Pedicure was nothing special. Certainly not worth the price or the attitude. read more

Lama knows the nail polish colors inside and out. She always looks at the color I chose and helps me - either grabs a shade even a hair different that makes a big different, or suggests a shinier version that will last longer. She is great. read more

The owners is friendly and professional and the place is immaculately clean. Yes, it's a bit pricier than other spots in the area, but that's probably because the spa that preceded Soon in the space was epically filthy and the entire spot's been redone and all the equipment's been replaced. Also, there are deals and coupons to be had. I'd rather pay a bit more and know I'm not getting a staph infection. Also - sincerely the BEST massage I've ever had. Unlike other places, Soon has an actual licensed massage therapist. A welcome addition to the neighborhood. read more
