Sophia’s Nail Salon

I love going to Sophia’s. It has a clean, modern, vibe. Everyone is incredibly nice. And it is super clean — they soak your feet in tubs of water instead of the whirlpool jets that are impossible to sanitize. And it’s all very reasonable! Highly recommended.

My friend and I went to Sophia’s to treat a friend who is expecting her first baby. We paid for all three services before our friend arrived. While our friend arrived, the employee who took our money argued with my friend for 5 minutes about the amount we paid. My friend was at first confused, recalculating what we owed with our tip, but quickly realized she was arguing that we did not tip enough. The employee had her calculator and reminded my friend that there were two girls working on each of us and that they also needed to pay the owner. She shamed my friend into tipping more who was trying to keep the whole exchange private. I’ve been to many nail salons in Dallas and the services and location were not unique only the rude employees.

I came here on a Friday afternoon, on my day off of work, hoping that it wouldn’t be crowded, but all the chairs were filled, so there was a small wait.
The salon is not that big, I think there are only 6 chairs. Also, their chairs aren’t the ones you see at other nail salons. These look like couch chairs (if that makes sense) and they don’t vibrate or anything like that.
I got a pedicure (I think her name was Jami) and she did an excellent job! She was very thorough and didn’t rush at all. I also got a gel manicure (I think her name was Amy) and she did a good job as well.
I think the total for a pedicure and gel manicure is $ 70 or $ 75, which is more than what I would like to have paid, but the gel polish works so well and stays on longer then regular polish, that every now and then, it’s worth it.
The one thing I didn’t like was this woman came in for a manicure, and she seems to be a regular, b/​c she knew a lot of the workers, and she was on her cell phone and was really loud. Then someone else she knew came in for pedicure and they didn’t seat her close to the loud woman and they were having a conversation and they were so loud! It was hard for me to relax b/​c of those two women talking so loud, plus the employees of the salon were trying to talk to each other over those woman, so they really annoyed me. Luckily, that was near the end of my mani/​pedi.

I love this salon. Place is super nice and clean. They will do a mani/​pedi for $ 45 and work on you at the same time which is a time saver. A mani alone is $ 18 and for me lasts about 9 days and I work a lot with my hands. My favorite girl is Hannah! She does the best mani in my opinion. I won’t go anywhere else!

I’ve tried so many nail salon’s in Dallas and I’ve finally found the best place. Sophia’s Nail Salon is definitely it! Not only do they do a great manicure, but the OPI gel nails are awesome. I’ve had mine on for two weeks now and they still look great. You can even do it with dark polish. The ladies who work there are so sweet and it’s a very relaxing atmosphere. They even offer neck massages while you get your mani/​pedi! Just had to share with all you readers out there. This is the place to go. If I could give it higher than a 5 star rating I would!

If you are looking for a top notch place to get a mani/​pedi, look no further. Sophia’s offers a comfortable, relaxing enviornment. I’ve been to numerous salons in Dallas and my search is finally over. One huge difference with sophias is that they use high quality nail polish (Lippman) and they do not thin their polishes like most other places do. In addition to manicures that last a week (yes a week), they are one of the few in town that offer OPI gel lacquer. If you aren’t familiar with it, it’s basically a treatment that keeps your manicure in tact for 2 – 3 weeks. The best part?
There is no dry time! Your nails are ready to go when you are finished. No more «messing up your nails» on the way to your car!
