Very wonderful first experience! Made an appointment the day before and came in the day of and only waited 5 minutes which was pretty nice, there aren't too many ladies inside so I didn't mind waiting. Got a pedicure with a new color I don't usually go for, ladies are very friendly and welcoming, and of course the man that was working was also friendly. Pedicure was $30 which is a fair price and the pedicure was done under an hour which I appreciate! Will be coming back! Thank you Kimmy!

By far the best salon in the area. I've been coming to Galaxy for about a year. Kimmy and her team are incredible! Great service, amazing quality nails, INCREDIBLE nails.

Everytime I go there my nails eaaat. I'm not a talker and I love that they don't try to force a conversation. Very comforting.

I walked in with a sheet of paper and an idea that I was going to be Wednesday Addams... and I walked out with a masterpiece !

I have been on the search for a high quality nail place with reasonable prices and I have found it at Galaxy! After moving to EP a year ago i began my search for a great nail salon. Most places chip after a few day, or you walk in the door and there is always a new nail tech, well not at Galaxy! I love the atmosphere and the quality of their work. My dip nails last weeks instead of days!

I asked for something bright and fun and ANNIE DELIVERED!!

Galaxy Nails for the win again! I walk in there every month wanting something fun while having zero idea what that looks like and the girls NEVER DISAPPOINT!

Kimmy was the best my nails have never looked this cute!! :-) very friendly staff and clean environment, pleased to say the least

Cute sage green French tip with painted flower

Started coming here because it is close to my work. I am very happy with their work on my acrylic nails. I showed the tech a photo of the nail art I wanted and it was done 100% the same! The tech even noticed small black lines in the flower which I didn't even see in the reference photo. The attention to detail was great! Also they have a discount if you pay with cash.

Annie gave me quite literally the best set of nails I've ever had! I love them and so glad I randomly chose Galaxy while in Oak park! I'd drive from Wicker every two weeks just to get them done here!

I've had terrible experience with manicures at other nail salons, and was starting to worry that there weren't any decent ones around. I contacted Long through Yelp to ask if they did dip manicures and he got back to me in minutes! I made an appointment and headed in today. The entire experience was so laid back and calm. In the past I've gotten rushed through the process, and the nail techs seemed annoyed when it took me more than 30 seconds to pick a color, but I didn't feel rushed here at all. Long even remembered my name from making my appointment previous night! The woman who ended up doing my nails was amazing! She took her time dremeling off my old dip manicure, careful not to hit my cuticles or bare nail as nail techs have at other salons. I know dip manicures can take forever, but she never rushed and took her time throughout the whole process. I'm so happy with the results and will definitely be coming back in a few weeks to get another manicure!!

Love love love Galaxy Nails! A no-frills nail salon that's affordable and does an amazing job? That's a recipe for the best nail place around. I've been here already a few times before reviewing. I had a great experience every time! The pedicures especially here are out of this world. Some techs take their sweet time and others are more timely - either or, the results are always fabulous and more importantly they last such a long time. If you pay cash, it's $45 and if you use a card it's $47. I don't see that price anywhere else, it's usually $50+. I've also never had an issue with scheduling, they're fairly open often. I'll definitely miss this place once I move away, but if you're in the area I highly recommend going to this nail salon! read more

They are the best around! One week I went somewhere else and regretted it immediately. Kim, Kaylie, Maddie, and Charlie are all terrific techs here! I can usually get in same day when I call ahead. I've been going here for years and my dip nails last 3 weeks as intended. Last time I went here, the dip color didn't turn out what I wanted but Kim and Maddie fixed it for me. That's my only word of caution - dip colors don't always reflect the sample. But Maddie was willing to sample colors for me. read more

I have been here a couple of times. Both for just a manicure and for a manicure and pedicure. Yes, it is a small space in a strip mall in River Grove next to a smoke shop a couple of vacant properties and a restaurant. That said, the customer service here was always good and I didn't have to wait to long. The affordable prices is one of the main factors drawing me back but the services provided by the people there is over and above price and all good. I recommend. read more

Long is the BEST. I've been going to him for over a year. He takes really good care of my natural nails, which is why I chose to come to him. I made the horrible choice of going to a different salon because they had more trendy options, bad mistake. I suggest making an appointment as opposed to a walk in, so he can take his time. Look at how natural and symmetric he makes the acrylic look... read more

Took an appointment yesterday through yelp which was super easy and they responded really quickly. I took an appointment for today 2pm which was confirmed through Yelp messages. I arrive at 2pm for my appointment and he tells me to pick my colors and have a seat. I do so and had a seat for 50 min! They left me sitting without saying a word for 50 min. When I was just about to get up to leave, they sat me down for my pedicure and left my feet soaking in water for 10 min. Never going up, definitely lost a potential regular client. Was looking forward to this place after moving to the area and saw all the good reviews. That was a bad first experience and would never return. read more

Just got my eyebrows done and the experience was beautiful! Asked for wax and that's what I got. No half wax half pluck here. Showed her a picture of how my eyebrows were done before and it was duplicated exactly. Why can't everyone do that. Just a little razor blaze at the end, though I am not a fan of that.... I look too cute and my face is not irritated. She was very gentle handling my face and very polite. I will be back! Especially since they are open late during the week and open on weekends.

The staff were friendly and the salon is clean. They have a great selection of normal polish colors and I felt that their no chip/dip selection was awesome too! I got my nails done by Long and my friend had Nancy, both were great! I did a dip ombré and it turned out AMAZING! I will definitely be back! read more

I asked for the underlayer of my hair 1 color (black). I mentioned I do part of my hair an unnatural color myself. the man on the phone said they don't do colors like that. That's fine, I do it myself, I started asking if he can bleach part of my hair ("money pieces" in the front), and he quickly, in a rude tone said "you know what, this isn't going to work out" and hung up lol! So they can't bleach hair? What i was requesting was normal colors, black and bleach. Maybe he's scared/offended by people with unnatural hair color? So crazy for a hairdresser If they didn't have time to do it, I would have liked to discuss having the appointment later, or if he didn't understand, I could have explained more. He literally hung up on me and didn't let me respond. such a weird confusing interaction. I was polite and looking for a neighborhood place to go 2 minutes walking distance from me. I wonder if it was the owner or someone else that lost a potential client literally living steps away from them

I've only been to Level Nails Bar twice but had good experiences both times. Today, my pedicure was…read morewith Jenny- and she was the sweetest and gave me a very nice pedicure. My friend brought a bottle of Prosecco and the staff were so nice to provide champagne flutes. Everything is very clean and everyone I've encountered so far were so friendly, including Lynsey, Tom, and Kelly (whom did my friend's pedicure). I even bought 2 gift cards for my daughter's coaches! Hope they enjoy their pedicures!

I visited Level Nail Bar in Norridge, IL today and unfortunately had a very disappointing…read moreexperience. 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.

Finding places I feel comfortable going are problematic. Glitter not only has a fabulous name it offers fabulous services in a comfortable atmosphere. Ok so they don't have massage chairs. But those spread fungus so I get it.( I still don't have to like it)They do offer a great neck massager that is just as good as the chair. The place is chill. The music was soft R&B and I could easily hear and talk over it. I didn't stress the too loud, or to soft,which usually happens. When the music was changed to NPR performances I was in heaven. The Deluxe pedicure was perfection,and my manicure amazing. The coolest thing about this place though, is the school. The salon also has a nail school in the back. If students excel and finish, they get jobs in the salon. So they offer immediate job placements. We need so much more of THIS! I'm so happy to have discovered this little gem in our community. Go,now, support this business!

So does that mean you think I can't pay for your service? Mind you this same lady had done my nails before with no problem and with no mention of being a "celebrity nail tech". Yes I tipped her!No I wasn't rude or anything to her. I always tip and don't mind paying for a persons work. This is what makes it hard to support your people. I'll never go back and will not recommend any to spend money where they aren't appreciated! We work for our money to come spend in your establishmen! Waste of a good vibe.

I'll admit, I wasn't too sure when I walked in because the customer service wasn't there. However, once I sat down, both ladies that were there were nice and engaging. It was a very pleasant appointment. Kee did my nails and did a great job. I've had my nails for 2 weeks and they look like I just got them done. The prices were great too. My only complaint is that the website and the door say that walk in's were welcomed but on a weekday afternoon there were only 2 nail techs and they both had clients. I waited about an hour and a half, which I had no problem with. A woman came after me and they suggested she come in tomorrow. It was 3 pm on a Wednesday but the door says they're open until 8 pm. I know now that an appointment is necessary. The walk in thing is what make the chop shops appealing especially for women like me with up and down schedules. Overall, it was a good experience and I will be back.

I've had issues at other local places that don't have prices posted and add on for every little thing then the total comes as a bit of a surprise at the end. I don't mind paying for great work, I'd just like to understand and know the cost beforehand and Whitney's puts it right up front when booking so there is no surprise. The location is easy to miss, but very spacious inside with good music vibes. An added bonus you can order wine, beer or champagne while you get pampered which is another thing that I haven't found at any other nail salon in the area. The artwork and quality of service is great and I highly recommend checking them out.

I've gone to the same lady forever and will…read morenot hesitate to tell them if the service is sub par or I think they need to up their level of sanitation. On to Bottom nails. First off, the salon was nominated for a Hoodie Award this year. Pretty impressive considering it's a nationwide contest. I couldn't find it at first bc YELP had their OLD address listed (they've moved to Parkland & Chicago ave.) but I called and found them. Walking in I wasn't sure how things would go but I put my name on the list and searched for a color. I wasn't feeling inspired so I let the tech pick my color. She was a cute college grad with lots of personality. She picked out a pretty goldish green which I would have never had the cahonies to try on my own. She did a great job and really tried to make my visit enjoyable. Very personable :) Next the owner did my pedicure. Sadly the infamous Bryan was out for the day. So I'll have to go back and check him out. The pedi room was seperate and intimate with 2 service chairs and a tv. I was the only one getting one so I had the room and tv remote to myself. I won't bore u with the details but I soaked for 15 min and she spent at least 10 minutes a piece buffing each heel. At least! My feet were a little tender when she was done, but it beats the nasty dreaded razor (which she told me is illegal in IL). Overall, I would definitely go back, especially if they weren't too busy. I was there for a couple hours but I felt like it was worth it because they had top of the line nail art, good prices, and they are black owned and operated which is really rare. Give them a shot!

So, the tech that I complimented decided to write saying she didn't do my nails lol and that the…read morepicture that I posted with the caption 'what I wanted' was her work, it is not ma'am.

(The lilac nails) and Nancy did my moms nails, my mom wanted something very natural and she did just that. I suggest this place 1000%! They are extremely friendly as well!

Best no chip I've ever had! Lasts up to three weeks. Their deluxe spa pedicure is completely worthy regardless of the additional few dollars. You wind up feeling extremely revived with super delicate skin. They have a large collection of no chip colors. Their friendly attitude and extraordinary services have kept me coming back. read more
