I don't recommend this place. Staff are rude, lots of miscommunication that results to dissatisfaction and they will look at you as if you're the one who doesn't understand english. Look elsewhere, there's a lot of nail places in chicago who does better job and is more affordable read more

I love this place and the ladies running it. So attentive and totally take their time to make you happy!!! Got my nails last done a few months ago, and they lasted forever!!! Full set on my hands and a deluxe pedi. The color i picked was HOTT, and the application was on point. They stayed on way longer than I thought they were going too, we had a loss in our family and haven't really been up to getting back in , so it really worked out that what usually lasts me 2 weeks, lasted the better part of 5 weeks!!! Neva have i eva, lol.... scouring to look for pics... but trust me, My fiancé is SUPER particular, like super super much!!! And he loved them sooooooo much, he was like drawn to my toes! Lol coming back on today for another combo! read more

My cousin brought me here years ago and this salon has since become my go-to place. I no longer go anywhere else. I always walk out with nails that I love! Those I've recommended this salon to have loved their nails, as well. Consistently great service and great outcome. read more

I recommend going somewhere else for nail services. I got a dip manicure that was hurried and rushed, and it began cracking and chipping within two days. I came back exactly 14 days later and requested the manicure be removed. Every single nail tech in the salon gawked at the shockingly poor quality of the dip manicure, pointing out how the top coat was flaking and cracking and confirming that it was cured improperly. Even the man who did the manicure came over to look at the cracking manicure. However, nobody offered any apology or tried to make it right. I was charged $12 to have the nails removed and was even asked to tip on the service. When I pointed out the poor quality of the original manicure to the manager, he was unsympathetic and reinforced that the salon was under no obligation to provide any refund or repair for the poor service after 1 week, despite the fact that the nail techs all agreed the manicure I received was poorly done. They easily could have made a small effort to apologize for the service I received originally and I would still be a customer, but unfortunately they made it clear they really didn't value giving the customer a positive experience. read more

I visited this place just yesterday because I needed emergency manicure/pedicure fix as I have no time to make an appointment to my regular manicurist. So, the salon is fresh & clean, chairs are new, it opened just 4 months ago and the ambiance is pretty nice. I was the only one there at 7pm, so had no wait and no rush. Nancy and one other girl both did a pretty nice job with my manicure & pedicure and I want to see how long it lasts. The drawbacks: a little bit pricey in comparison to other salons in Chicagoland area (I normally have a no-chip mani & regular pedi for about $45 / $50! This one was $60 though). Plus there are surcharges for some of the nail polishes that are supposedly long-lasting.. The choice of varnishes is pretty good though. All in all, for an emergency fix I'd pay this price, but not sure if I come back only because I know better places. P.S. Dear owner, I've read your responses to the reviews and you are not doing it right. I would suggest, you hire a marketing person who will help you fix your rating / attitude problems. Your salon is very nice and girls are working hard, something in your marketing strategy just isn't right. read more

Absolutely horrible customer service. I have been going to this salon since they opened. It's always been a bit slow, but my experience today takes the cake. I stopped in to make an appointed for me and a friend last week... for 11 am today. We show up today and the place is absolutely packed with walk-in appointments. I tell one of the technicians that we have an 11 am manicure and pedicure and am told to pick out colors. So we do and are asked to sit down next to each other at one the pedicure Stations. During this time another women comes in and says she also had an upcoming appointment. An older lady comes and starts my friend's Pedicure while I continue to wait in my chair. In the interim they take the women that came in after us and immediately start working on her pedicure. Over 30 minutes have now passed and I am sitting with my feet in cold water and my friend is almost done with her pedicure. I decide that this just is not worth it. I inform my friend that I am going to get up and wait for her to finished her pedicure and we can just pay for that and leave... since now there is no way we will be done anywhere near the same time. That is when a younger woman comes up and tells me not to leave that they can hurry up with my pedicure so that we are done together. Excuse me? You're going to rush and not give me the proper service because you didn't manage your appointment calendar and let another woman go before me? I inform her that I am no longer interested. That the water is cold and my friend is almost done. I go to stand up and she tried to push me back and slammed the armrest of the chair into my arm and starts yelling at me that I need to be patient and it will be fine. I am beyond done at this point and tell her that I am not staying and ask my friend to meet me in the car. I will never ever go back to Happy Hands. They need to learn how to manage their calendar and not just try to herd people in at the expense of regulars who actually make appointments. The only thing I have to show for this complete waste of time is a nice bruise on my right arm from having the armrest slammed down on me. read more

The nail tech I saw was Miri. She's awesome!! I hadn't had a pedicure in a while and she was excellent. I don't post often but definitely recommend her read more

SO AMAZING! This is the 3rd time I've been here and gotten a full set of acrylic nails and every time they're perfect and last a long time. My mom got a regular mani and massage and almost fell asleep because of how good it was. The salon is always clean and the service is fast and friendly. Will definitely keep coming back. read more

This is like my second time here. The first time I got a no chip and the second time was i got one acrylic nail repaired which eventually made me want to have a fill in and a cut and en eyebrow wax. The no chip was good. Very professional and even. Trust me, I live near 2 nail salons and i'd travel for this nail salon than go to the ones near me. Happy hands fixed the uneven, bubbly no chip I got and it lasted a while. When i came in today to get one acrylic fixed, it was lifting and peeling not to mention they weren't all the same length and again, it was uneven. The girl took her time and now my nails look normal again. I guess she noticed how bushy my eyebrows were so she asked if I wanted it done... what the hey it's a me day. She did a bang up job I don't look like burt anymore and she only took off what was needed. read more

As a walk in appointment I was seen as soon as I got there. Received a shellac manicure and they did a phenomenal job. She took her time and made sure my nails looked near perfect before I left. I will definitely revisit this establishment. I don't mind paying for excellent service read more

It's the second time I have been there. Due to my regular nail salon girl quite. Nancy attended me 20 minutes late. She was answering phone calls, processing payments back and forwarded while doing my nails. I feel she was in a hurry to catch more customers. I kindly told her but I believe is lack of management and language barrier. Dec 27 back again with my daughter and husband. I specifically ask her to to my husband manicure and pedicure. She had someone else doing it. WHAT IS the SENSE OF ASKING if they will have someone else doing it!!! I spoke with the one manager a day before and told him the lack of appointments skills. He kind of heard but no action at all. Place had a lot of walk ins which made the employees rushed in finishing fast their appointments ones. Three customers waiting one left due lack of time. When my husband arrived. The pedicure station has no hot water. Several customers had to wait to have a pot of hot water in the station. Cuticles should be cut not pulled. As a business owner I get that you need to grow the clientele but this business has No good management at all. People is nice and I know they work very hard but the OWNER SHOULD STEP IN AND ORGANIZED IT! No sense to have a bigger spaces and had moved form new management if the owner care less !!! read more

Went in today for a dip powder and pedicure. They never disappoint. I was there for 2 hours. So happy with my nails I love them!!!! Ann did my dip powder and I'm so happy!!!!! read more

After a friend recommended it, my mom and I went to Happy Hands Nails and believe me when I say, we did not regret it! Cute, clean salon with very friendly workers. Right when we walked in, the place was full of smiles and a welcoming staff. My mom and I both got acrylic full sets and two weeks later, our nails are still perfectly intact! Definitely coming back to this spot read more

I really wanted this salon to be my new go-to nail spot, but after my last experience I won't be back. I've had several nice manis and pedis with Nancy, so I wanted to treat my husband to a spa day here. Unfortunately, his nail tech appeared to be in a horrible mood from the start. She was very unpleasant and sloppy, and completely rushed through his services (she did not have any clients waiting). His deluxe pedicure and manicure were completed in under 25 min total! My nail tech was still in the early stages of my pedicure when his mani and pedi were both done! There was obviously some workplace tension and drama happening during our visit, but that should never be taken out on the customer. I'm very disappointed with our experience, and I don't plan on returning. read more

Today was my first time at Happy Hands Nails and I cannot wait to come back again. I was in a major time crunch this afternoon and the girls at the salon were so accommodating - they tagged teamed my no chip manicure! My nails look and feel great. And even though I didn't give them a lot of working time, they took their time and made sure my nails looked like an entire day was spent on them. If you're looking for a place to get your nails done, I'd definitely recommend HHN. I had such a wonderful experience there. Thanks Ly and Ngoc! You girls are the best. Go visit them! read more

I lucked out by finding this place via Yelp. Nancy did my nails and I couldn't be more impressed. She took her time and was very thorough. She didn't rush despite it being the end of the day. Nancy (as well as Kelly and the rest of the staff) was very sweet. The space is also very clean with ample parking. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

This is my new favorite nail salon! It is clean, comfortable, and the ladies who work there are very professional and friendly. The nail polish color selection is excellent, and I love that they have Dazzle Dry which is nontoxic and lasts longer than regular nail polish. I absolutely love how my nails and toes turned out, and I appreciated the attention and time that Mamsie put into my manicure and pedicure. I very much enjoyed my time at Happy Hands, and I will be back soon :). read more

Excellent service and fast professional service without feeling rushed. Their prices seemed to have gone up, However, given these uncertain times I'm sure they have been struggling with having to close down for a couple of months. I'm going to say with complete confidence that any of the nail techs are all good. I love that i can go on my lunch break and get a pedicure and then return after work for my manicure love this place. Very clean. My new place 2020!!! read more

I rarely like to get my nails done.... I've had bad experiences with no chip manicures. This place is wonderful!!!!! I got my nails done for my vacation 4 weeks ago and this is the result. The technician that did the no chip did a fantastic job! The place is small, neat and immaculate when it comes to how clean they are. What I particularly liked about this place was the service I received. In the past no chip manicures usually start peeling at the edges and therefore fall off; but NOT with happy nails. Also in other salons they usually apply the no chip and is usually lumpy and thick.... NOT here, the nail is smooth and thin! Incredibly impressed I will def be coming here again. read more

The service was great . There's no pricing anywhere so you have no idea what your paying unless you ask . I was charged $88 for a no chip mani and pedi which I found to be an odd number . My mani didn't last a week and the polish was laid on extra thick and had bubbles . The pedi was wonderful . read more

My mom and I always come here for our nails, it's our favorite place! This was the first time I had the acrylic tips done and I absolutely love it. Nancy did an amazing job and my nails are holiday ready! We also did the "deluxe pedicure" and I don't think I can ever do another type of pedicure again. If the massage part is your favorite part of getting a pedicure, definitely check it out. You can pick from different scents that they use in the pedicure - the bath salt, the scrub, and leg mask. I picked peppermint and it smelled wonderful and left the nice fresh tingly feeling on my skin. Can't wait for our next special occasion to come back again! read more

My cousin and I arrived about 3:15pm and asked for two pedis and a no chip mani. Three ladies working; two people getting spa pedis, one lady getting a mani, and one waiting. We were told "20 mins maybe 15." Ok fine, we can wait maybe everyone is almost done. Fast forward 45 mins and a pair of extremely soggy a** feet later, I am still waiting, but they at least started on my cousin. It was about 4:30pm and someone was finally free to start my pedicure but at this point it would be another hour (maybe more) in this salon. So I opted not to get anything done at all. No one said anything other than "oh." Moral of the story, just be honest. Don't tell me a "15-20 minute" wait and have my feet soaking so I actually believe it's going to happen. Never coming back and warning all others. read more

Went in without appointment and only waited less than five minutes. Josie was hilarious and very friendly and professional. She cleaned up my nails and cuticles and gave me a no chip manicure in less than 15 minutes . I loved the salon only thing that I would change is the music, it's very calming but too calming where it puts you to sleep. One of my best nail experiences. read more

Nothing about this place is Happy. It is very quiet. No one is talking. There is no music. The technicians don't interact with customers at all. So disappointed. Now for the pedicure, I think my 4 year old could put more effort into it and my feet aren't ugly. read more

With this nail salon being extremely close to my job I really wanted to like it. Unfortunately the 3 times that I've given this place a chance they have disappointed me all 3 times. The first time I got gel nails with no chip on top, the nails ended up all different lengths and shapes.Second time, I got no chip polish on my natural nails (with a different nail technician) and the color ended up being really blotchy and see through, within 2 days the no chip polish started to lift around the edges. I decided to give the nail salon one more chance and I am extremely disappointed. Once again I got no chip polish on my natural nails (it was also a different technician again). She filed my nails and left them completely crooked and the bottom of my nails are rough! There's nail polish all over my cuticles, there are air bubbles in the polish and again blotchy and see through. I've never been this dissatisfied with my nails. I will never step foot back in this place and I will continue to tell my coworkers and everyone I know to not waste their money by getting their nails done here. Update: Not even a week later, 3 nails have chipped and 2 nails have broken. I am beyond upset. The last lady Berry that did my most recent no chip seriously ruined my nails. This is completely unacceptable. read more

Nancy always does my dip and I usually get 3-4 weeks out of them!! Place is clean and usually quiet which is relaxing.

Tried happy hands for the first time to get a pedicure. I had made an appointment for me and my daughters three days in advance for 6:30. When We got there there was only three other women. Two getting pedicures and one getting a manicure. We were asked to pick a nail color and have a seat. Sounds easy lol but not. The wall of nail color was minimal for what came with a $28 pedicure because it was mixed in with polish that would cost you $3 more. Heads up the $28 pedicure package is their basic. They have packages that are more expensive. Which the more expensive ones are compatible with other places who offer it for $25. And lol You get to pick these packages off a printed piece of paper that is wrinkled and written on. Not very professional. My girls and I decided just to get through this and never go back. But in their defense they are new and hopefully open for improvement. They do use tub liners for their pedicure chairs which is a plus. I'm updating this review to share with you a message the owner sent to me. Very unprofessional Hello, Stacey D. Thank you so much....... yours and your daughter reviews not effect my business anymore I have too many customers you will see my reviews and their opinions .....every day I have crazy busy this place for who spend best price and get much better services not like you guys. I think you guys are looks like competitor. * Check my camera I didn't find you guys came my store * I don't want see you anymore in my place because this place only who wants organic aromotherapy services means we do 15min message thats why our prices little high. * I know guys seems competitor relatives. * I gave services 1000 of customers I never got price discrimination like you guys. my better suggestion for guys find cheap salon not like big plaza who doesn't have even parking and chemical smell and real quick services one * if do you really want better services you have to pay and wait If I wasn't here why do I have their bonus card? read more

This is the 2 Nd time that I make an appointment & have me waiting 20 mins then have the audacity that they are busy & I have to wait another 30mins. They take walk-in & filled their appointment books knowing that they have people coming in soon. I walk out & would never coming again. read more
