    I work with Pam at ALX, and she is excellent. Have been with her for years. Nice salon. They are clean, sterilize and clean everything.

    It was in the evening when I stopped into the Legen--wait for it--dary Spa in Highland Park for a…read moremanicure. It's a bit nondescript from the outside, no signage, although the logo is on the door. It's striking and different inside -- lots of black and plants, botanical plant mural on the wall. It seems quite spacious, although I was the only customer (best for last?). I've been looking specifically for dazzle dry manicures around the area, and that's how I found Legen--wait for it--dary, and I booked online. They did reschedule my appointment because the original nail tech couldn't do DD. Gulzat handled my manicure and did a very nice job, we talked about perfumes (Baccarat Rouge, she complimented me), she offered me a drink, changed up the color when I asked for more sparkle, and did a neat and clean job, nice cuticles. The manicure was a bit more compared to the other salons I've been to recently, and my hands were dry (no lotion). There are other beauty services offered at Legen--I'm allergic to--dary, so I might check them out. All jokes aside, I think my manicure at Legendary was nicely done. I'll come back to Legen--wait for it--

    My nails are absolutely ruined and in total pain after getting builder gel removed at this…read morelocation. They typically do very well at match mart and Marianne takes great care in ensuring my nail beds never got compromised during removal. Unfortunately this is not the standard for all salons. Whoever helped me exclusively used a drill, I am assuming because she wanted to save time. I had to tell her multiple times that my nail bed was getting too hot and even jumped in pain. Only once ever did I get a removal service like this elsewhere and I never went back - unfortunately I won't be back at this location either. Two weeks later and my nails are still splitting as the grow up and in incredible pain. In short, It took me weeks and weeks to grow my nails out and now I have to start from square -10. This is hurts like crazy, I told the lady she was drilling too much and she said "that's what she had to do". This is just unacceptable.

    I've been going here for years, and Laura always does an amazing job!…read more I'd also like to recommend the Bio Gel Manicure. I get one every 3.5 weeks only because my nails have obviously grown; there are no chips or breaks, even after 4.5 weeks! They do take longer and require more curing under the UV light than a regular no-chip, but I no longer worry about my nails tearing if I so much as look at them funny. (Prior to the bio gel, I used only regular polish because the roughing required to apply no-chip was overly damaging to my nails. As a result, my nails broke and tore regularly. Bio Gel requires less roughing of the natural nail, so I'm much more comfortable with it. I also have fingerless gloves to minimize the UV exposure to my hands.) And online booking is super easy! GO SEE LAURA!!!!

    Very quiet salon on a side street in downtown HP. As many times as I've been down this street, I…read moredid not notice it. Perhaps because the name GMM Nails is kind of generic. Anyway, I sought out this salon because they offer dazzle dry (I searched for locations on Yelp). I was the only customer on a snowy evening, and Laura gave me a nice manicure, and even, unexpectedly, a shoulder massage. There were not a lot of colors to choose from, although I appreciated the quick neat job. Two days later though, one of my nails had a very rough edge and the nail chipped off. (Dazzle dry is supposed to last 7-10 days). I did have an overall good experience and will come back another time I need a dazzle dry mani.
