I was looking for a place in Mt. Prospect that is close to me and cheap for a mani-pedi. This was…read morethe cheapest I could find within a 10 mile radius with a mani-pedi combo for $34 instead of $36-40 elsewhere. What I liked about this place is I could make a last minute (2 hr notice) appointment and it is open late. For some reason a ton of other local places are closed Monday's. I was only in town a few hours and needed a mani-pedi treatment badly as I was trying to grow out my nails and wanted them shaped properly. The owner has a ton of patience as you pick out colors and if you change your mind (like I do) with colors as you sit and look around. They also have a great selection of nail polish colors. The owner is very accommodating and friendly. She's fast at what she does, but does it to perfection because if you're unhappy with anything, she will fix it and if you don't like a color you picked she will redo it for you if she can. She will look at your facial expressions to see if you make any gave of concern or are looking at anything. I don't think nice ever had a manicurist ask me "anything wrong? Tell me :)". So I wanted another coat on and said it and she did it right away. She also helps you with everything from taking shoes off, opening zippers on your purse, moving things over so you don't get your nails ruined. This time I came straight from the airport and has a small suitcase, which she took to the car for me! Just very nice lady, overall. For the pedi, some of the other ladies don't speak much but they take they're time and do a good job. They also give you a foot massage and then when your pedi is done, a back massage as you let your feet dry. At some more expensive places, by have you chose a massage of foot scrub and you get it all here. Overall, I'm happy with my mani-pedi and the pricing and excited to have such an accommodating place close to home.

So I came in for a pedicure like I normally would with Sarah. And completely come out disappointed…read moreand with a botched pedicure. For starters, she rushed through the whole process. Left my big toe nail crookedly shaped. Then I had asked for a design to match my acrylic nails on my big toe and she did nothing of the sort to try to match what I asked, she did what she wanted and it totally came out horrendous. And lastly, my total was $35 and I gave her a 40 and she she took it upon herself to keep the five dollars change without me even telling her or without her even knowing what I was gonna give her as a tip. Oh, and I also forgot to mention that the slippers that they put on me for my toenails to dry left the bottom of my feet stained pink, and when I brought it to their attention, they told me to go home and wash it off and I stated to them that I did not just pay $40 for a pedicure for me to walk out of the shop with pink under feet. (the picture that I will be attaching below shows the design that was put on my big toe that did not even closely match What is on my acrylic nail.)

Apparently the previous review got taken down... so I'm going to summarize this as the WORST nail…read moresalon I have ever had the misfortune to walk into... DO NOT GO HERE Ambiance, a tiny box of a salon to the right of a large grocery store, with blinds that hang from the ceiling that you have to dodge as you enter. Bathroom is the coat closet with storage and a bucket to use for the low flow toilet, Flashbacks ... reminded me of 3rd rate places in the Philippines. No lie. Quotes on the phone for a dip manicure at $43 when the displayed price is $35. Oh then suddenly its "policy" for a $5 take off add-on and a sandwich baggie with a buffer and emery board ...that you have to buy... for this upcharge of $8.00 When I restate, there is no signage or discussion regarding this.. Tony yells at me that its their prerogative. I hadn't raised my voice this whole time... but you're too clueless to get it huh.. Arguments by "Tony" that metal files are fine to take off remnants of polish instead of scraping and buffing it off like normal salons (look at the damage) mofo. I'm tempted to file a health complaint, dead serious. Mothereffers. So this character continues to use the electric metal file head on my naturalb nails... so i decided I'm done with this garbage service... then the owner Jesse tries to reconcile and say I don't have to take that baggie... then starts trying to put powder on my nails with NO prep and NO basecoat. WTF. No way, shouldn't have even paid for a takeoff ($10) cuz I got damaged nails for this dumb stop in hell . Better off doing dips yourself than here *Be warned* No dip manicures here unless you want damage.

I started coming here 6 months ago and I haven't stopped! It took me a long time to leave a review…read morebecause I usually like to stop by a nail shop place a few times before judging it :P First off, I love that I don't have to call in. I can always message them via text and I usually get a response in less than 15 mins for an appt. I haven't had a problem in getting an appt day of; sometimes for the same hour! Second, I don't have a preference in the technician, and I think I was serviced by all of them at least once. All of them are great! Some are faster than others and those that are slower are because they want to make sure they get your nails done perfectly. If you are in a hurry, let them know. My review is solely on the dipped mani and regular pedi because that's the only thing I ever get. I love that they have a huge selection of colors and that they have a 14 day policy on pedi and 12 days on dipped mani. And for real people, they do last that long. On the cases that it doesn't (which happens occasionally), you can come in and get it serviced for free. Make sure you write down the color number at the end of your appt. For the pedi, I love that they have a filling out card that asks you what kind of lotion and scrub you would like. They have quite a selection and all of them are great! My favorite are the lavender, rose and mango. The regular pedi without any add ons are $28. Dipped mani is $40 and on Mon-Wed it is $35 with cash. I think this is a great deal! They also have an electronic punch card reward system (all logged by your phone number) and I've always been able to get a 10% discount. The store also has its own private parking lot and shark tank or chopped always playing in the background. If tv is not your thing, the store also has its own private mini library. I'm a regular now and I don't regret it one bit. They are open literally EVERY SINGLE DAY of the year. New Years, Christmas... you name it. Oh yeah, as always, don't forget to bring your tip in cash!

THIS PLACE GAVE ME CONTACT DERMATITIS FROM LETTING ACRYLIC DIP DRY ON MY SKIN AND USE DIRTY TOOLS…read more LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS. THIS IS HOW THEY WERE GOING TO SEND ME HOME IF I DIDNT SPEAK UP FOR MYSELF. These people are lucky I didn't call the cops yesterday and report their shop to the Lake County Health Department. These people wanted 135$+ for this hack job. I was still willing to pay full price until they called me names and acted rude. I didn't even raise my voice at them at all. They treated me as if I was trying to haggle the price down for telling them the truth. THE LADY WHO DID MY PEDICURE ROUNDED OUT ALL MY TOE NAILS. EACH TOE NAIL IS A DIFFERENT SIZE AND SHAPE. MY ACRYLIC NAILS ARE ALL DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES. SHE SLOPPILY LET ACRYLIC DIP GET ON MY SKIN WITHOUT REMOVING IT, THIS GAVE ME DERMATITIS! Their stationary supplies aren't clean either. I didn't get what I wanted at all. I asked for chrome and they didn't have proper chrome powder or polish, yet argued with me that it was chrome. They were going to send me home with nail acrylic on my skin. They didn't even bother to remove it. If I didn't say anything they would've sent me home debauched. I payed them out of pity and simply not wasting my time arguing.. I got a last minute appointment around 2:00. The minute I walked in I felt hostility. It was not busy at all (figures). They both started doing my nails at the same time. The girl doing my acrylics was HOVERING OVER ME STANDING with no table or anything doing my hands. It was unprofessional, sloppy, and it felt rushed. She was standing up rushing through my nails. I got a mani pedi done with an acrylic full set in less than 1 hour. That's how badly they rushed for some odd reason. I called before coming, mind you. Nobody was in line either, the nail shop was dead. They had no reason to rush a mani pedi + full set of acrylics in 45-50 minutes. That's impossible for a good set. This was the weirdest shop I've ever been to in my life. I've never been to a nail shop and had such a negative experience until I came to Northbrook. Every single nail shop around here sucks. I never have issues when I'm in Chicago.
