YOUR PICKS
1. Parisian Nail Salon
You say, “Parisian Nail Salon in West Cobb is the nicest nail salon in Atlanta. We’re talking about upscale atmosphere, consistently awesome service, disposable tools and autoclaved utensils. It doesn’t get better than that.”

OUR PICKS
1. Unique Nail
We say, “Nestled behind Trader Joe’s in Midtown, Unique Nail is a little hard to spot, but it’s worth the search. It’s always clean, prices for a basic manicure/pedicure are reasonable, and the staff is friendly and efficient. And it’s a nice bonus to be able to walk next door to the Midtown Art Cinema to catch a flick after you’ve been pampered.”

Sugarcoat Nail and Beauty Bar on Pharr Rd in Buckhead is the best Nail Salon! The nail techs are friendly and very professional. The salon is very clean and you always receive brand new files and buffers for your nails and toes! They do a great job.

I have tried many nail salons in the Atlanta/Decatur area over the years and Unique Nails in Midtown is the best! It’s a small salon and the service is impeccable! The technicians are friendly, engaging, consistant, and their skills are exceptional. Can’t wait until my next visit!

These places are a cesspool of biological and chemical hazards as detailed by both The CDC and OSHA. Why would you take a chance on being exposed to hepatitis or other pathogens by some ill trained low wage employee when you can simply do your own nails at home? Omnia Vanitas…

Lily’s Nails….sort of across the street from Ansley Mall…on Piedmont…pretty much every person there is good….but the equipment/chairs/etc is top-rate…it costs a $1 or $2 more than a strip-mall place but it is excellent & worth it.
