    I have been going to EP Nails for years and realized I've never given them a review so here it is. I have been to many different nail salons in and around the city, in different states, heck, in different COUNTRIES, and EP nails is by far the BEST there is. Joanna, Lynn, and Dennis are all amazing and I recommend them to friends whenever I can. I personally go to Joanna and she goes above and beyond every single time. She remembers my colors from years ago, is always accommodating with schedule, and I always leave with a smile on my face. EP Nails makes everyone feel like family and if I could give them 100000000 stars I would. If you're looking for a nail spot, look no further, EP Nails is your place to go!

    The nails I got

    I went in for a pedicure and full set appointment. There were no individual bags for each person at the pedicure stations and the tools are reused and not single use/disposable. I asked for a trending French nail and showed a picture where the white tip was not straight across and curved down. Instead the man doing my nails just added a white nail extension and it looked nothing like the picture I showed. In my opinion that's a cheap excuse for a French nail. No wonder it was $35 for a full set. I will say the woman who did my pedicure was extremely thorough and meticulous. Very displeased overall.

    After leaving my long time nail salon for personal reasons, I was searching for good place to go. Well after trying out a few different spots I wasn't impressed. I decided to give EP a try and I'm glad I did! I didn't find a good spot I found a great one! I am feel like I've been going there for years. The staff is very personable and professional. Lynn listened to my suggestions and did an amazing job on dip manicure. I highly recommend EP nails! This is for sure my go to nail salon.

    I have never had a gel manicure last this long, I'm over 2 weeks now and not a single chip. It's remarkable!

    I needed to get my nails done for an important occasion and I wanted to get something very specific. I came into EP Nails and even though they were booked they fit me in to get my nails done. They were quick, clean and did a great job. I definitely recommend EP Nails for any of your nail needs!

    EP Nails is the best place around for a friendly manicure. This is owned by Dennis, who used to own the nail shop in South Park, Park Ridge. The place itself is pretty basic, but has a great location right in Edison Park. There are 4 pedicure stations and another 6 spots to get your finger nails did. Yes, I am a male and get manicures. It makes me feel nice and is quite relaxing. Dennis and his wife own the place and are both very friendly! They are always joking around and keeping things light as customers file in and out. Manicures are always nicely done and include a thorough hand and arm massage. It is $12 for a basic manicure and takes about 20-30 minutes. My wife goes there for mani/pedis and always likes the result. Tip - there is parking behind the shop so you can save on meters. Check out EP nails for a great manicure at a fair price!

    Love the color. Nails were shaped as I wanted them. The cuticles looked better before, I'm rough on my hands. I have very dry skin.

    Been here a few times. I just couldn't keep going in the summer, the shop was hot in there. They do a decent job. They shake their nail color like no other shop I've been to with a machine. That thing really keeps the colors mixed.

    Great staff who accommodated our group for a bachelorette party. So much fun and they even allowed us to bring in champagne too.

    Dennis (the salon owner) was very warm and welcoming, and Lynn gave me a fabulous pedicure and a stellar no chip French mani.

I showed a reference photo of the exact design, color, and nail shape I wanted, but the final result looked very different from what I requested. The shape was uneven, the color did not match the reference, and the design details were not executed well. I understand that inspiration photos may not always turn out exactly the same, but this set missed the mark in several ways. Another part of the appointment that made the experience uncomfortable was the overall conversation during the service. The technician spent much of the time talking about very sad and angry situations happening in her personal life. While I understand that everyone has difficult moments, a nail appointment is usually a place people go to relax and de-stress. Listening to a lot of negative personal issues throughout the service made the atmosphere feel heavy rather than relaxing. Between the disappointing nail execution and the overall environment, I left feeling very unhappy with the experience. I hope Level Nail Bar takes feedback seriously and focuses on both the quality of the work and creating a more positive, relaxing experience for clients.

    Hi I asked originally if I could get acrylic for shaping for my pedicure . I wanted a classic…read moreFrench tip . However when I got seated one of the employees that wasn't even working on me asked me what I wanted . I replied that If it was possible to get acrylic for shaping (like even just a tip on my big toe ) and it'll be a basic French tip. she asked if it was just for my big toe and I said yes . She then proceeded to say that they won't be able to do it . Already throwing me off but then I asked if she'll be able to do gel to give it shape then. THEN she said only if I get a manicure as well which I did not ask for. This was already baffling behavior and I am nervous and confused because I have gone to multiple nail shops that either do acrylic an gel or do one or the other but I understand and continued on with the service . Just trusting she understood when I explained what I wanted multiple times. when I thought she was done with the client next to me I thought she was gonna start on me next but out of no where she sent another employee that doesn't know what I asked. i had to explain AGAIN what I wanted now stuck in the chair. she asked if I wanted a file I said yes for all of them to be straight like I think that an obvious thing that every nail salon does I just wanted the gel or acrylic for the edges so it could be squared. I felt a bit awkward an during the whole process because there was another customer next to me while i was already feet in tub waiting and explaining to the employee that's working on the other customer what I wanted when she didn't even work on me nor communicate to the other employee what I wanted. ALSO SIDE NOTE !! I'm pretty sure they use the same foot scrub for every client I understand sterilization but I'm pretty sure you'll have to change those out for every client also while she was scrubbing me and washing it off she used the same water I've been dipping my feet after getting my heels scrubbed and that's why you have the hose to spray the clients legs down.

    Most of these ratings are for the previous owner. New owner now and it shows!…read moreI have been here in the past and came for a deluxe pedicure. I called ahead and they said I could come in. When I arrived the place was empty. The owner?/manager? Was curled up in a pedicure chair and covered with blanket. I was glad because now they do dips there. After the service I got I would not return. She did nothing t get up out of chair when I came in. I understand it was empty so the other 2 were on their phones. She told the gentleman to do my pedi. He got the foot bath ready for me. I had trouble communicating with him. He spoke little to no English. He kept talking to the manager during the whole service as though he did not know what he is doing. Needless she never got up to help or check what he was doing. While I was there another gal came in for a mani and a pedi by the third employee. She was finished with both before I was close to leaving. There was 1 coat of color put on my toes. At the time I doubted myself so I did not mention it. He was putting the polish on. He still had not done the mud mask for my feet. I asked the manager? What about the mud mask. She said that he would still do it. I thought how could he do it over the fresh polish. He used some CLEAR solution on my legs. Not mud and not mudlike. He wrapped my legs in a plastic wrap. Then aimed "steam machines" toward my legs and walked away and sat down. Did not say how long it was going to take. After 10-15 minutes I moved them off. It was not comfortable. The "manager" saw and called him over. He removed the wrap and looked at my toes. I was not sure if the polish made it to the edges. He said something to the manager and she came over. While she was he once again painted the edges of 4 nails. She took her finger to test if they were dry and smudged the polish. The color did stay but smudged. She painted over the 4 toes. He then attempted to put my flip flops on me in an odd way. Did not have success so I did it myself. She then said I could go when I wanted. I was not going to stay another 10-15 minutes to dry again. There was no drying table. I did tip him usually. I did not feel it was his fault. I think he was surprised. Also near the bathroom there is a sink to wash your hands. Above the sink is a large hole in the wall. You can see into the restroom! There was a picture or something against the wall from outside the restroom. It still left a nice size hole you could look into and still see the toilet. The highlight of the pedicure... online it said it takes 45 minutes. I was there 2 hours without staying to have my nails dry! I wish Rose had not left.
