    I went in requesting a gel full set French. The staff were very friendly and nice which was great. Unfortunately, I'm not the happiest with my nails considering I paid $60. I've been here several times and this by fair was the worst experience.

    Third visit and absolutely loved how Kelly applied the nail color using hombre technique!! She's very meticulous. Hint of sparkle towards the tips. Going back most definetly.

    2 days after pedicure with the $20 extra charge for gel polish. What a rip off. Also see that cut it was done by the nail technician.

    Where is the zero star button. Absolutely the worst nail salon I've ever been to. I hate hate hate leaving bad reviews so rarely do I but this one was earned. 2, $60 pedicures us $120 plus whatever tip I want to leave. I was asked if I wanted no chip polish (gel polish) and the lady doing my daughters pedicure also added oh it's very cheap only a couple dollars more. I seriously should have known better. Pedicure was decent but somewhat rushed. We both were handed a hand written receipt that said $80 on each. I look at my daughter and was like wtf is the extra $40 for. I asked when we went to pay and they said for gel polish. SERIOUSLY??? Average charge for gel is $5-$7 NOT $20. So we walked out paying $164 for 2 pedicures. $4 for using card to pay. No tip given. They can take their tip out of the extra $40 Pedicure was Sunday October 1st. Today is Tuesday Oct 3rd. What a rip off If I hadn't flown back home Monday morning I would have been back first thing this morning demanding my money back Apparently you're not supposed to take baths with this expensive cheap gel polish Should have read what others has to say. Don't say you weren't warmed!

    What I asked for!

    This has been my go to since they opened a few years ago. Sadly their services have gone downhill hill fast. I have been injured by rough aggressive techs. Polish is sloppy. No chip completely popping off my pedicure within days. Last straw...Requested nail art with photo and she acted like I didn't ask for art, although booked and showed pictures. Then did a hurried awful job with stones that I did not ask for and hated!

    Update 8/27 I decided to get my acrylics taken off here, that was previously done by another place. They take off the acrylics with another acrylic nail from their nail box AND IT HURT. It's suppose to be SOAKED OFF. My nail beds hurt. They can't do anything right. LASTLY PLEASE LOOK UP MMA MANICURES! They use this illegal substance for gel manicures. They ruin your nails! MMA is used for surgery in the bone and teeth, NOT FOR NAILS! I found out from my new nail tech how harmful it is!!! Idk how this place is still in business!

    My nail tech is the best! He ate this! I'm traveling to Florida for family vacation to Disney World. Thank you Isaac for keeping me cute out here in these streets!

    No chip mani
    Becca A.

    Only a 2 for Gurnee nails and spa. I have gone a few times to give it a chance. I'm not a fan considering every time I have gone the mani and pedi have felt rushed, and sloppy. The first time I went I felt like my cuticles weren't even cleaned up. The prices are fair but that would be if they were doing a great job. Today when I went the man doing my nails proceeded to cough the entire time. Not a great look. If you're in a pinch and need a mani, you'll get one here but definitely not a go-to spot for me. Pros are the ability to book online and many color choices!

    Issac is the best, he doesn't do oval. Period
    Mackenzie C.

    I like to think 2012 nails are back. I love these so much. Issac is the best, he doesn't do oval. Period

    $200 later after getting my 5 year old mani pedi($50!!) and full set with pedi for me. Gel polish on toes is all over my skin and peeling off just a couple hours later. Black French tips design is a mess as well. I should've listened to the reviews I saw and spent my hard earned money somewhere else.

    Torn/damaged nail
    Kayleigh K.

    I HATE leaving bad reviews, but this time I just can't ignore what happened. I've been coming here for a few months for acrylics and fill ins. I always have loved the designs and thought I was going to a reputable salon, but now I know differently. My visit last week required a take off first. In which Isaac took nail clippers and some sort of file tool to pull the nails off instead of soaking them. I expressed it hurt and he continued. Part of my nail was torn off (not just the tip, but a middle section of my nail). It was just painted over. But he said he put the new nail tip lower so "it would be fine". I wanted to trust him because I am new to this process, but something felt off about that. I tried to file an incident report but they had no actual process for that. Had the manager call me the next day and say if it hurt too much or lifted they would remove and replace the nail. I ended up having the nails removed elsewhere and the acrylic was so tacky, slimy, and sticky. I was told by another nail tech that they believe it's the dangerous MMA acrylic that is dangerous and banned by the FDA. Thankfully my nail seems to have avoided infection, but it is severely damaged and only time will tell if it will ever grow back properly. Please be careful getting acrylics here

    Love coming here.. Everyone is super nuce, friendly and I never have an issue whether is walking in or making an appointment.. Place is super clean and staff is awesome. Pedicures are amazing here, they sure take their time with you. So worth it.

Unless you are waiting in line, you are there for 5 minutes, tops. No hustling to get other services either (I hate that. Though I may add, the manager, a male, convinced me to get a membership... but I hate tweezing and there is no way I can tweeze the furry patch I have above my brows... they do it for you!). I felt unlimited cleaning for a year, 11$ a month, was well worth it, so I became a member. Since then the price has gone up :/ :( This location has friendly threaders (is that their job description?) 2 girls in particular do an excellent job on my brows, they know exactly what my eyebrows need just by looking at them! Once 1 of the girls noticed my previous visit took too much off (how did she know!?) They are GOOD that's why. They don't strike up a conversation is why I don't know exactly the days my 2 favorite girls work. With my 1 year membership, I've had at least 2 painful experiences and needless to say, that girl is no longer employed there. *I have to add, you will need to hold your eyebrow skin with both hands during a session, so if you didn't shave or wear deodorant ... well I'm always concerned about that! *Also, they hold the string between their teeth -it's weird but that's the technique. It doesn't hurt but if you have been tweezing you know that familiar sting... but best part is, it's a gentle stroke, and not concentrated on one single hair.

It doesn't take too long to park, walk inside and find the brow bar. Eyebrow threading is the service I went in for. Price was $10 and you can tip on a credit/debit card. There were two ladies getting their eyebrows done when I showed up. The male (didn't get his name) working there soon finished up with his client and moved on to me. He threaded very efficiently and it was virtually painless. I was in and out in under 10 minutes. I should have given more direction on the shape I wanted because they turned out thinner than I like but at least they were even. No frills, especially compared to getting an eyebrow wax at Benefit, which is always my #1 go to. But for a quick fix during my lunch hour, this met my expectations.

Unfortunately, my experience at this location was deeply disappointing and concerning. From the start, there were red flags. The appointment took an unusually long time for a straightforward Botox procedure, and there was no doctor or supervising medical professional on site--only injector nurses. I was told to return in two weeks for a follow-up, which is not standard protocol for authentic Botox treatments from Allergan. In all my years of experience, I have never been required to come back for a "follow-up" unless something went wrong or the product used was questionable. *The owner responded that she did not find my name so I edited this review to include my name and validate this review. The name is Gregoria L and the visit was this year in May . Based on the results and the experience, I strongly suspect I was not injected with genuine Botox. When I raised my concerns and asked for a refund, I was met with complete resistance and a flat-out refusal. This was a frustrating and unsettling experience. I do not feel confident that proper or authentic materials were used, and I cannot recommend this place to anyone seeking legitimate, professional cosmetic treatments. If you value your safety, time, and money--go elsewhere. *I will be reporting this facility to Abbvie.
