Mani pedi no chip French and my daughter got a full set of acrylics with cat eye gel. Awesome work and pleasant service. They do great work and I will be back soon! read more

I stopped in on my way home - had never been here and figured it can't be that bad. The man that did my nails was very nice, but SO SLOW. I always do a dip manicure. It took almost 2.5 hours to remove my old dip, cut/file and then do the new dip/top coat. No designs or anything fancy, just a basic color... it has never taken this long to get my nails done. He used the nail drill on my cuticles and they were bleeding when I left and are still red and puffy today (I went last night). I paid $45 + $9 tip b/c I believe in paying for services but I will never be back to this salon. read more

I've has had pretty much every one in this place do my nails (acrylic) and I love them all! Today Anna did my nails and I absolutely LOVE them! It's very clean, they are as prompt as they can be (allowing walk ins and having appointments) and they have tons of colors to choose from! read more

I have been going here for many years and I absolutely love everyone here, my nails always look amazing. Tony is the guy I always see. The only downside that I see is the wait, so I typically make an appointment which doesn't seem to change the waiting time. I waited almost 3 hours (yes, 3. I know that is my fault for waiting) even though I had an appointment. Got stuck watching Chicago Fire on the TV. This last time, I had to wait an hour after my appointment time. I am a very patient person, but my time is precious. This is making me think of maybe finding somewhere else. read more

1. Waited 35 min after my appointment to be taken 2. Technician cut my right big toe and made it bleed 3. "Pedicure" from start to finish was 12 min 4. Asked for dip manicure, technician decided to finish the dip powder with a no chip top coat and cure my nails under the lamp. Argued with me when I asked what is going on since I asked for a dip service not create whatever they want to do. 5. Left with a sloppy job, powder stained on fingers, powder crusted under nails, and powder was too thick. Will never be back and don't recommend this place. read more

Pedicures are standard price with massage, and cleaning. Very detailed and walk ins are welcome. We didn't wait long and the service was about 20-30 min. I gave tip and he said it's too much.very hygienic place with constantly wiping down chairs. Windows and techs are robes up. read more

Tony did an amazing job on my nails even though I was a very picky and indecisive client, he asked me if they were how i liked during each step of the process and was very quick and efficient. My nails turned out great & exactly how i wanted! I will definitely be returning. Also the prices are very reasonable, and they have quick service. Never had a bad experience here. read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. I made an appt for 2:30. Arrived on time. Waited to be seated for 45 minutes. Was put in a pedicure chair. Nobody even came to the chair once for another 45 minutes. At that point, it was because I asked for a towel to dry my feet and leave. It is a wasted 90 minutes that I'll never get back. Their horrible planning would make me not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Best place with customers and quality Erik and Helen have the best Nail Salon from town and I've come here for more the 20 years. I will recommend it to family and friends because is all about quality and happy customers. read more

First time going here. The salon followed CV19 suggestions. They took my temperature upon arriving and made sure patrons followed social distancing. The nail tech that did my nails was Tony. He was very personable and made sure that my nails were done to my specifications. I will make sure to ask for him when I return. All staff were very nice and attentive. read more

Some older lady did my nails and they look just awful! The manager told me that I didn't have to pay because of how they looked and the nail technician chased me out to my car and tried opening my door and repeatedly was banging on my window. She kept screaming and hitting my car because I didn't pay, when her boss told me I didn't need to. Absolutely unprofessional and harassment if you ask me. I have a picture of this woman as well, I'll post it and for your sake don't ever have her do your nails. read more

I went to go get a no chip and they dipped my finger in acetone to remove the no chip while I was getting a pedicure. This was around 40 minutes long and it damaged my skin so much. I am attaching a picture so you can see what it did to my fingers. After researching online it said a professional would NEVER do this. read more

Illinois Nails - From leaving my fingers in acetone for long. - Nail Salons Near Me - Round Lake Beach, Illinois

Best acrylics my sister in law and I have found in lake county. The man who did my nails absolutely perfected them. And the woman who waxed my eyebrows was fast and precise. The woman who did my sister in laws nails was quick and did an incredible job. We were both very happy with the results. :) The bad is, I was pressured into a lip wax that I honestly didn't need. I was never told to go to the UV tables for drying my nails, I was sent over to the waxing station immediately. My sister in law, however. Was sent to the UV tables. Also, although we appreciated the speed this time because she had work. They were in a rush before they even knew that. There was no manicure included with the acrylic nails. There was no finger soak, no lotion, nothing. It was a very cut and dry acrylic nail application. They could include a little pampering. read more

RUN AWAY!!!!! This place is a joke! I made an appt & when I walked in for it, they were busy with Walk-Ins. When I let them know I was there for my appointment, they told me I would have to come back another day because they were busy. I told Helen I had an appt, but because she didn't write it down in her book, I'm suppose to not get serviced? I told her I left work early, am losing money because I left work early, and that I drove 30 minutes for my appointment THAT WAS BOOKED 4 hours earlier! She told me to wait. So, I sit around waiting 20 minutes, she couldn't be bothered. So I called another (much better) salon and walked out. This isn't the first time either they have done this. Their service is crap also because you call and make an appt. with someone specific, but you get there and they toss you off to someone else because again, they work on who they want to and do not care what the customer wants. Last time I was there, I made an appt. with Helen, but she passed me off to her husband telling me she doesn't do pink & whites. Really? You own the nail salon and do nails and you don't do pink & whites? So I tell her husband I want pink & whites and he literally starts giving me the 3rd degree asking why I want pink & whites. I told him because I do... but he wouldn't stop, he asked me over and over why do I want them, do I have something special coming up, where am I going, on & on. WHY does it matter what I want - just do what I am paying you to do! This is what you guys do - you do nails!! Well, some of you do, some of you need to learn how to and some of you need to care about NOT DAMAGING your customers nails with the way you split their cuticles, file so hard in one place that you burn the finger, pry old product off and destroy the nail bed, etc. You did me a HUGE favor treating me like crap (again) because I found an amazing salon that has great pricing, fantastic service, fully staffed with qualified and quality nail techs, and THEY DON'T HURT OR DAMAGE YOUR NAILS! And, they go above and beyond; I received a hand massage, a moisturizing treatment and a hot towel treatment - at no extra charge! read more

Had to give this place a try when my coworker recommended me to Erik, and he did not disappoint!! I asked for a foil nail look and while my entire appointment did take about 2-3 hours (i had a previous gel set on my nails so removal was done first), I loved my nails and this is probably my best set yet! However, the nature of the way he removes a previous set seemed more aggressive/painful than my previous nail techs had done it in other stores I go to..he would use a tool over the nail but then would use an acrylic tip to then manually remove the gel from my nail causing a lot of discomfort and friction...that was the only downside..idk the verbage with nail removal but i know for a fact there are other ways to do this without causing discomfort for the client. I am fortunate too that i have natural strong nails, otherwise i don't think i would have put up with it. $55 was what i was charged for in total bc of the ombré look and i used two different types of foil/color. If I could come back again for another look like this I would, but the process of removing and the long tedious appointment isn't worth it! read more

I loved how they did my dip it lasted me 3 weeks like usual and wasn't too heavy I just moved in the area and normally dip doesn't take too long at my old salon 30 min tops even with a cool ombré, but when I went in it took over 2 hours for just the dip I was so frustrated since I also had to wait 40min when I was told there was no wait. They just seem very understaffed. Will give them another shot hopefully it's better this time around read more

This place never seems to make me a happy customer...I end up not liking the outcome of anything they do. It's likely they don't listen to what the customer wants...I went in to get my eyebrows done, I told the lady about 4 times I wanted to keep my eyebrows THICK! And wanted to keep my shape...she waxed them and shows me them in the mirror...I nearly cried! They were way too THIN! Got my refund. Never will I ever go back there for anything ever again. If I could give 0 stars I would. And the fact that I got hung up on when I called and complained.. read more

I waited almost 2 hours to get my nails done at this establishment. They rarely look at the sign in sheet so there really is no "first come first serve" order. I ended up leaving and no one apologized or said anything about how long my wait was. Either the place is understaffed or just mismanaged. The nail polish smell is also the strongest I've ever smelled from any nail salon, enough to give you a headache. I wish I could give 0/5 stars and I will be sure to tell friends and family not to waste their time. read more

I literally called and ask ahead of time how long the wait was and she would not give me a straight answer she said oh it should not be long. I got there and there was no seating available I wish you would've just told me that over the phone instead of having me driving all the way over there. read more

My daughter recommended this shop and I'm so glad she did, this is now my new nail spot. I walked in they got me in ASAP and did a magnificent job, not only was the quality of there work great, they made me feel welcomed and comfortable. Great job! Will see you again soon read more

Helen is so nice and is always asking how I'm doing also she does the nails fast definitely recommend her.

I came to this place to get my homecoming nails. I made an appointment in advance at 10:30 and I showed up at 10:30 to wait an extra 45 MINUTES!! When I had 6 people's makeup to do and had t get my hair done. I don't recommend coming here. read more

Illinois nails is just a joke at this point they keep getting worse and worse by time! They are super rude and always rush you to pick a color, your nails get so ugly after you take the acrylics off. It's not worth you money. read more

Nice place for a mani-pedi. Good service.reasonable priced. The only con is the strong smell at the front door.

Went there and ended up getting a refund. I asked for a no chip manicure and a regular pedicure. The people were friendly and my pedicure was okay but the no-chip was another story. First, the person doing my nails starting pushing back my cuticles and filing my nails without soaking them. He then used the round electronic filer to file down the top of my nails-something I've had done for acrylics but never for gel manicures! Once he finished filing down my nails he then laughed and mentioned he forgot a step and then had me soak my nails and pushed back the cuticles AGAIN! After it was done I went to pay and he ran my card before he told me it would cost more than $60 for a mani/pedi!!! Needless to say I disputed it since the price wasn't even displayed in the store anywhere and I won't be returning. read more

The people are friendly here and they are very good at nail design, but it's not the cleanest place. The location is old and has a strong odor when you first walk in. Also, the person who did my nails kept trying to push other services on me that I was not interested in at the time (such as no-chip or French). Even after I repeatedly told her I only wanted a simple one color manicure because I had some job interviews coming up, she still kept pushing. Needless to say, I walked out with something completely different from what I wanted and it felt like I had to argue with her not to do the no-chip (which would've cost me $60!). Oh, that's another thing- the prices here are far more expensive than the other local nail salons. read more

Worse service ever, it just gets worse every time I walk in there. I'm sure no one has their license either. I would not go back there after what happened last time, just awful took them 4 hours to do a no dip manicure and still charged me !! The person who did my pedicure was awful, toi read more

I came in an hour before closing and waited 50 minutes just to be told that because they are closing soon I would only be able to get a fill in. I even called before coming to make sure I would be able to get the service I wanted but the guy did not want to take my current nails off to put on new ones. I was told that as long as I can before seven they would do my nails. Horrible service. Will never got back. $10 and Two hours later I walked out only about to get my nails removed. read more

Really disappointed in my pedicure. She cut my nails too short, paint job isn't even, and my feet were still rough. When I returned to get it fixed all she did was put some lotion on my feet. I could have done that at home. Would not recommend. When you pay $35 for a pedicure I expect it to be the way I want it. read more

Helen is part owner and not friendly, If you call on the phone, you can't understand what they are saying, If you make an appointment don't expect them to honor the appointment. They have no consideration for your time, but you miss an appointment time or are late they are pissed . Not a friendly establishment. I would not recommend this place to anyone. The nail polish is cheap. They don't keep the utensils clean or use new ones like you are suppose too . The place is not clean, beware of the pedicure chairs. They just wipe them out with w spray bottle, they don't clean them the proper way disinfectant cleaner . You can get foot fungus from the previous person. read more

Eh. If you're looking for pampering, this isn't the place. I got a mani/pedi in under 30 minutes, though. No soothing rubs, no salt scrub, just a quick nail trim and file, scrape of dead skin, and polish. I didn't even want the manicure but the nail tech kept insisting, then when I agreed she asked me 5 times if I was sure I didn't want to do a no chip. Yes, I'm freaking sure I don't want a no chip for the manicure I didn't even really want! I probably won't go back. read more

My nails were great, but both of my daughters got no chips and were horrible. The older lady did my daughter's, cut her cuticles til the bled, and said Oh no. Her nails look like bells. They are lumpy and sloppy looking. Then for her toes, she told the lady 3 times she wanted her toes to match. And she STILL proceeded to do white. My daughter just said forget it. I didn't see it until we pulled away and she started to complain. We got in car and if we didn't need to head somewhere else I would have marched her right back in. Then $20 to change polish? No prices were posted. Not going back there again read more

Wow. I just wanted a simple manicure and was pushed for the double priced gel polish at least 6 times after the initial no. My technician says she's been working here for 12 years? I was thinking more like 12 hours. I had finally grown out my natural nails and instead of nicely shaping them, she cut them down to stubs and hacked at them with a very course and painful file. She didn't even fully remove my prior polish, which is now all over my finger tips and showing through on the edges of my new color! Lazy, rude, bad at her job and NOT worth the time or money. read more

I'm indifferent with this place sometimes their great sometimes their not so great but I get a gel fill every time it's about 40 dollars. I try to go threw Ben he's the best but sometimes I get people who want to rush. So all in all this place is decent read more

I absolutely love this place they do such a good job and they are so friendly. The prices are the same as other salons. I have been a patron for 12 years and will remain one! read more

Horrible Experience going there for the first time! Will never return! DO NOT have Kim do your nails! She was NOT Gentle by any means!!! She nicked my cuticals numerous times...which now I have an infection in my cutical that I am STILL treating. She was cleaning around my nails with her own nail with NO GLOVES ON! Gross! So Unsanitary!! When I asked for my nails to be cut down real short ( I happen to like them that way) file square with rounded corners she looked at me and said with them that short you need to just have them square. I said No I'm paying for them and I want them square with rounded corners. After all my nails were painted ( been there an hour now) she removed all the nail polish to start over with out even the courtesy to explain why, I had to ask why and remind her I needed to be at work soon. She acted like she could of cared less! She doesnt belong working in a nail salon! TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! I did speak with the owner regarding my complaints and he was very nice and apologetic. Unfortunately I will not be returning. read more

I have been coming here for years... so much that they always recognize me and remember my name. The staff is a little hard to understand at times, but they are very nice, reasonably priced and they do a really nice job. read more

Always a very long wait there even with appointment but my daughter loves Erik and refuses to go to anywhere else now. We've gone to other local nail places and the nails start to lift within a week. The woman who does eyebrows does a good job too but a negative is they always pressure you to get more services like designs or waxes. They've also been under construction for a very long time inside. But in the end he does a great job at a great price so we keep coming back read more

They always do a great job on my gel manicures.
