Acrylic Gel fill

Yvonne was the absolute best here! She is very detailed in her work and was very nice Highly recommended, and is a cute little spot Go see her!

Terrible Manicure

Horrible manicure. Cut and ragged cuticles. You get a manicure to eliminate those issues. I think they are worse than when I went in. The technician did the "dab with alcohol" to stop the bleeding. Ouch.

Gelx nail popped off less than 2 weeks after getting them done

I got gel x with a cat eye. The lady did not know how to do a proper cat eye and had others coming over to help her. She drilled down too far on my nail multiple times. She didn't know how to properly shape my nails or even paint them nearly. The next day my nail was already peeling/flaking. When I told them they refused to give me a refund and said they would redo my nails. I came in and got them redone. Less than 2 weeks later my nail popped off while I was picking up a sandwich at the grocery store. The rest of the nails on that hand are basically lifting off my actual nail. This is gel x. It should last 3-4 weeks usually and I have never had a nail just pop off. I don't want a new set as my nails are already weak from redoing the last set. DO NOT GO HERE.

My nails from Finest nails on El Toro in Lake Forest

So I love Hannah and I love Lori I highly recommend this nail salon for how much nails are the last place they all snapped off the last place I went to was u Nails don't go there

Definitely come here if you want to be cut super bad, get gaslighted when you're explaining what happened, get attitude, and leave with a toe bleeding :) if that's your jam, this is your place!!! Went in for a pedi and a french nail design (design ONLY) as my nails were already done but too boring so wanted them to add just the white part of the french. Manager in the front says $10 for french design & whatever for pedi. Lady for nails had MAJOR attitude not even a hello like ok & then instantly started talking to her coworker which so what we all do & then 2 seconds later she tells me she told you the wrong price but I'll do it anyway. Ok???? Thanks??? I kid you not it took her less than 5 mins. & it was average french design. Now to the good stuff. I tell the lady doing my toes that I have a small ingrown on one of my big toes. As she's cutting into I instantly felt the pain & that she was cutting too much! MAJOR SIDE NOTE - I have been getting pedicures EVERY TWO WEEKS for the past 20 YEARS! I know how much they typically cut & its so seamless I don't even feel it. So I instantly knew this was bad. I literally sat forward in my chair & put my hand up as a stop motion & said please stop you cut too much & she proceeded to yank out what she cut & surprise surprise my toe instantly started to bleed. UGH so annoyed just writing this SMH. So she starts apologizing & putting whatever alcohol solution & trying to clean it but my toe won't stop bleeding. She wants to proceed with the pedicure & I told her absolutely not & to please get her manager. The manager was "busy" eating lunch which I totally get people need to eat. But if you have an injured customer & there is no one else that can cover for you, I don't know maybe tend to the customer before going back to your lunch???? This is where the gaslighting starts. After 5 minutes.... I go to the manager & she apologizes & said the lady didn't do it on purpose which UM I should hope not??? I told her the issue is I tried stopping her but she didn't listen & did her own thing anyway. Then she said "well you told her that you had an ingrown". That really upset me like OK AND? How does that justify getting cut & having my toe bleed so much??? She asked if the lady can finish my toes & it would be on the house but absolutely not. Why would I risk my other toes getting cut. I left with no pedicure & a deep cut. I went home despite having a lot of other errands so I could properly clean and bandage the area in hopes that it does not get infected. I'm just praying it doesn't get infected :( The pix below are 10 mins later when I got home and it was STILL BLEEDING.

I asked for gel x nada pedi. I love that they are able to accommodate . However the service was not well done. I have chunk of extend gel under my nails , my cuticles are flooded and nicked from the nail tech (Jenny) going over and over it trying to remove excess gel. There are huge mail bubbles and I was tired of sitting there for long so I just paid l. My feet are sore I was nicked and cut over and over I can't walk properly as my big toe rubs against my sock and my side wall is all bloody. It was expensive to be hurt over and over $120 for mani gel x and pedi. I wish there was more patience when doing my nails. They are great employees to talk to but when the job isn't well done because they keep talking to each other in their native language and ignoring your requests it's hard to work with.

I requested a fill and a pedicure. Sky did my fill and Nancy did my pedicure. I really enjoyed my services. I love love love my French tip and my toes feel so good. Sky was very sweet and pleasant to talk to. She did an amazing job with my nails. Nancy did an amazing pedicure/ very thorough. My toes and nails look great! Highly recommend!

Nail art dip manicure
Laura M.

Sonny did a great job! I like nail art designs and he delivered with his creativity, attention to detail and hand painted each design with care. He was a little surprised when I told him I wanted all of the designs I showed him but he did amazing work. He was soft spoken and gentle. I just wish they did the massage and pushed my cuticles back. Recommend and plan on coming back.

dip powder set
Jocelyn P.

I've come to this salon several times, it has always been a good experience (especially w helen). the technician today was kind, and if it were just unclean nails I wouldn't leave a review. it hurt though, a lot. I was bleeding from 3 of my fingers and the technician said I had "thin skin", yet this is the only time I've ever had a nail appointment hurt and the only time I've ever bled from one. I still like the nails, I'm sure they'll last a long time like usual, and the staff was nice. yet I've been wondering why I paid to be in pain, when maybe somewhere else wouldn't have hurt so badly? if I go back, I may request just helen

Worst nail salon experience I've ever had in my life. I would give it 0 star if I could. This was the first time I visited this salon, and definitely will be last. I decided to come here only to remove my Gel X nails and get a pedicure. I will say the woman who did my pedicure was wonderful and very kind and did a great job. However, the excuse of a professional that was removing my nails was an absolute nightmare. To start, she began ripping my nails off with a cuticle clipper. Using full force. Inflicting pain. I kindly told her I would like to soak the nails off instead and that this hurts and that I would not like her to do this. She tried to argue with me saying that her method was better but I still insisted. She had ripped off two nails already and reached the third nail. I stopped her for a moment to tell her to be extra careful with this third nail, because it was injured a few months ago and the entire nail bed ripped off. I told her that it is now finally healing and growing and that I don't want any extra damage done to it. She mumbled okay, and as I was finishing my sentence she took the god damn pliers and tried ripping it off. The nail immediately started bleeding because she ripped my nail bed open again. I was so upset and almost passed out from the pain. She showed absolutely no remorse or regret. I asked her why she would do that after I specifically asked her not to use that tool and to be extra careful here and she gave me no answer and instead began DUMPING acetone on the nail. Since she brutally ripped my nail bed, the acetone of course began profusely burning me. Once again, zero sign of remorse. I decided to spare you all the trauma of having to see the bloody nail but once I got the bleeding to stop this is what it looks like (look at the picture). There is a hole that she ripped in the middle of my nail. It is going to take months for my nail to recover from this monster of a woman and the trauma she handed me. I do not recommend this place to anybody. But they do okay pedicures, my feet are quite soft.

Pinky burned from the cut
Jessica L.

I had an open mind. But trust your gut feeling. Things turned for the worse when I politely asked what the process was for "dip powder" removal. They said it was the same as the gel removal. But then got defensive and said " YOU HAVE TO WAIT OVER 20 MINS" and I said, I would have happily waited. I got here at 4pm and was in no rush. They charged me for dip removal but didn't remove the dip. When I asked for them to break down the bill, they said my starting basic full set was $47! They did do their best to cover the dip but I'm overall unhappy with the quality for the pricing. They were frustrated at me towards the end of the visit. They were also laughing at the girl next to me who had changed her mind on her color. They also cut me twice, I didn't understand the rush because there was only one person there when I got there. The guy doing the nails was polite and really did want to give me what I asked for, it was just too late after not removing the dip all the way. I tipped them and told them I suggested a bowl dip removal process like all the other places. I will not ever be going back.

1 week after getting a fill here (nails lifted and popped off)
Shelly M.

Pros: They fit me and my friend in right away with no waiting, they were extremely friendly here, they let me pay venmo. They recently remodeled and the place looks fantastic. Nails done by Cindy and Sun. Everyone spoke good English, which you don't get at some nail salons. Cons: My pedicure did cost $17 more than the place I used to go, which included the exact same things. (But I'd rather pay a little more and have a place that fits me in right away.) The main con is although they are nice here and the salon is really pretty, my nails lifted and popped off after only 1 week. My nails lasted a month where I used to go. And 2 weeks is standard. But my nails popping off after 1 week just isn't worth the money. I may have to look for a new place :(

The NAILS deserved a little photoshoot because Ruby and Ari did such an amazing job and would give…read moremore than 5 stars if I could! I do my own nails at home when I have free time and I'm very particular with the gel removal, shape of my nails, cuticle removal, the shape of the gel overlay and the design. Ruby did my nail prep and the first half of the design then Ari had to take over to finish my nails because my nail design took longer than expected. That was on me though for only booking an hour gel manicure session instead of being more accurate with the other services that I needed (cuticle removal, gel overlay, and nail design on each finger). Nonetheless the switch was seamless and I would request either one of them again to do my nails! Ruby used an e-file to remove the gel polish I had on and she was very gentle and careful - did not burn at all unlike experiences I had at other nail salons. She cleaned up my cuticle very well (I have thick cuticles that need to be removed or else my nail bed is too small for nail designs). I have a pretty small nail bed to work with so I was very impressed with both Ruby and Ari's intricate work on the design I requested. They offered me complimentary drinks (I got tea with an orange slice) and it was such a thoughtful touch to the overall experience! I booked my next appointment at check out, and Ruby and Ari ensured I booked a longer session because they already know I will be coming back for everything I mentioned above I've officially found my go-to salon. Thank you so much, Ruby and Ari!

The girl at the front desk is amazing. I grew up a nail biter and was trying to figure out something other than acrylics. She recommended dip powder until my nails grew out, and then builder gel after. Best recommendation, I finally have nails!! Like my real ones! Everyone I've had has been great. The nails look great, they don't lift, and I don't feel like anyone is talking about me or judging me. I came in yesterday with a split toenail, hoping they could do something. One of the girls fixed it in 5 min and didn't charge me. I also booked a kid's session once for my niece, who was 5 for her birthday. They let us use the VIP room and made it so special for her. She still talks about it being the best birthday gift ever

I felt bad because this other nail tech was supposed to do my nails, but I decided to request for Kris instead since the other artist said she can't do the complex designs I was wanting and luckily I saw Kris working today. I'm so glad. She does SUCH BEAUTIFUL designs and beautiful, intricate 3D art. You can tell she's a perfectionist and really cares. I rarely get my nails done these days, but if I need some nail designs for special occasions, I'll be back. See photos. She nailed my vision. I'm sooo happy.

I am contemplating coming here again just due to that, most chairs have a cushion where you lay your feet and although it a small detail it is uncomfortable for the client.

Today I came to Win Nails for my very first time with a friend. I was really surprised that there…read morewere only 2 women working and only 1 other customer. They weren't too busy. But, because there were only two employees there was a bit of a wait. We told them we could come back, but they urged us that they had time. The women work really hard and I feel badly giving a negative review, because the main issue was the lack of staff and support. It took over 2 hours from start to finish for a mani/pedi and by the end I was so ready to go that I didn't even fully finish my nails. Once your hands and feet are partly painted you're sort of stuck (which may be on purpose). By the time I left, my nails were not the color I wanted, and my toes smudged, but because it had been so long and was past dinner time, with other people waiting, I was just ready to be done and go home. I'm sad to say that Win Nails did not win me over.

I used to frequent this place, but the last time I went there were old toenails and acrylic tips on…read morethe floor. They also wanted to charge me additional $10 because I wanted different colors on my nails for Easter. I guess the up charge was for opening an extra bottle. I've always paid for deluxe services and tip generously. As you can see from my photo, my nail bed is damaged and this was from a standard manicure.

I only recently got back into getting my nails done so was on the hunt for something near my house…read more We had an outing on Saturday so I wanted to get it done Friday after work. A quick call to the salon and the person confirm me at 5:30. At arrival, I did have to wait a little longer. They were busy!! The vibe was buzzing and rambunctious. Customers and artists just laughing if up. I soon realized that they paid so much attention to detail and wanted their customers to be completely satisfied that if someone needed an adjustment, they'd fix it on the spot. Nevertheless, they were extremely apologetic and my assigned person actually got one of her coworkers to get started on me while she finished her previous customer. I was there for a gel manicure. My nails were mostly long but my two index fingers were shortened because I broke them. It was suggested that if I wanted to maintain length that I "patch" my broken nails with gel-x extension which was what I was hoping for. What I also appreciated was that they had someone else who was more familiar with gel-x come over and put on the two for me versus my person just doing it herself. Everyone was super nice and friendly and their work is immaculate. I plan on returning when it's time to re-up! Check it out!
