    The salon was clean and there were so many color choices. Not super friendly staff but that was fine since I was with a friend.I got a no chip manicure. It was fast but they did not follow all the steps I've had with other no chips and it was a little sloppy (they did however fix a nail that wasn't up to snuff which was appreciated). Wish they would have taken their time a little more as there was no wait. At the end I tried to use the 20% off check in and they wouldn't accept it for some reason. A little frustrating.

    So excited! This is my first time at American #1 Nails. Last minute NYE 2020 No Chip Manicure! Blessed. Vanessa did an outstanding job.

    I had the pleasure of working with Miss Vanessa who performed a no chip manicure on New Year's Eve. It was a last-minute appointment, but I was very thankful that they were able to squeeze me in. The messages are not sending job and her children to detail was phenomenal. This will definitely be my go-to place in the future.

    Check out my amazing festive nails! Thanks ladies!!!! Love love love!

    I have been seeing Lily for no chip manicures and pedicures for about a year now. I absolutely adore her, she is so sweet. She always takes great care of me (I have occasional panic attacks) and my nails always look amazing! Emily the owner is a rockstar and the staff always seem super nice and accommodating as well.

    This is the exact place.

    I just got my feet done here and the service was GARBAGE. Their people skills SUCK. First off when I called to make the appointment the lady was rude and when I let her know the time she made a remark "mmm" and questioned me about my time and was trying to rush me off the phone and then just hung up. When I got there it was silent and nobody came to help right away. Then when asked about getting something special done the lady questioned "why" with an attitude and basically said no to doing it. Then when asked about checking to make sure my feet was dry the lady told me No and walked away. This place IS NOT welcoming no welcome in no have a nice day NOTHING. I. WILL. NOT. BE. COMING. BACK.

    See all

I booked their waterless pedicure and their gel x extension manicure. I really enjoyed my pedicure, it was just as relaxing as a traditional pedicure. This will definitely be my go to for pedicures for here on out! However, I'm not fully convinced I'll keep getting my manicures here. Don't get me wrong my manicure was IMPECCABLE, I got gorgeous almond shaped gel x extensions but the manicures seem limited here. I was hoping to get the gel x in coffin/ square shape but they only had almond shaped extensions. I originally told my nail tech I wanted coffin shaped, and she tried to shape the almond extensions like a coffin- but the extensions were so almond already it just didn't look right trying to convert it into coffin. I told the nail tech that almond will be fine. Which it was fine, but I know in the future there will be times where I'll want to have coffin nails. And it seems like their extensions are only limited to almond. Additionally, my appointment took really really long! My appointment started at 11 and I didn't leave until 1:30 ish. Literally a 2 1/2 hour appointment. I don't think any of my appointments have ever taken that long! Again, my nail techs work was impeccable and I appreciate her attention to detail, but 2 1/2 hours seems excessive. In total I paid $163 and separately paid a $20 tip! Final thoughts: it's a gorgeous salon with friendly service and great work. I will definitely continue to come for those amazing waterless pedicures!

    Broken Nails Within Days-Poor Quality & Service at Luxia Nails and Spa…read more I've been going to Nick at Luxia for months, but my last visit was unacceptable. I paid $149 total (plus cash tip) over two appointments in June 2025 for acrylic nails and a color correction after he used "Piglet" instead of "Cashmere." I even simplified the design to make the second installation easier and quicker. Within hours of the second visit, a nail broke. After they fixed the first nail, another nail broke two days later. I had to go back four times in 10 days just to fix their mistakes. Despite clear evidence the application or products were faulty, the manager refused a refund or proper installation. She offered only to fix one nail or give me a discount after I'd already spent nearly $200 and was missing a nail days before a wedding. Unprofessional, poor quality, and no accountability. I do not recommend this salon. Save your time and money.

The lady barely, scrubbed or messaged my feet !!! She was just rubbing her hands over my legs and feet for 2 minutes, hardly a massage !! I am actually really sad to write this review.. but I had a really bad experience today... I feel like the last few times I've come in the service has been lacking. Today was by far the worsthe lady never introduced herself and was so rough with the tools. It was not very relaxing. My polish is so thick and streaky that I asked her to fix it. I hope this is a one time occurrence because I do like this place.

When I got to her place in Naverville downtown she told me she had 2 appointments ahead of me. I was in shock so she told me to wait and in the middle of her doing a manicure to her first appointment she took me and did a fast pedicure. Her 2 appointments came in I had to wait to get my manicure done bummer. It is very relaxing the music and the massage. She uses hot stones to give you the massage and what I have been looking for melted wax to smooth your heals and to soften your hands. NO credit cards only cash or checks I was surprised by that.

The ladies never even seen the type of nail polish I've used before and thought it was one of those fake nails. I had to tell her to be careful because it's my real nail. When she was removing my nail, she was doing it the traditional way... Which wasn't coming off... Then Bibi had to step in a use a machine to get the nail polish off. From this, you can tell the lack of experience they have with nails. When I asked if they have similar type of nail polish, I just get while bunch of excuses about how I don't really need nail polish that can last 4 weeks without any chip or damage or how my nail is strong there's no need for that or their no chip is similar and lasts 2 weeks..... They don't even have the latest kind that you dip in the power kind of nail polish. I need nail polish that is strong and does not chip or scratch or anything because: 1. I ain't got time to come back every other week to do my nail 2. I do a lot of house chores and wash dishes and everything else in between, I need it to last long and not chip! Bottom line, only have your nail done by BiBi and try their nail polish to see if it wears off easily on you or not. I may go back to try their no chip just cause I don't wanna go to Chicago to get the nail done. So if I do and they do a good job, I'll update my review then.
