I never used to get my nails done regularly until a friend of mine suggested we go together to Nail…read moreVida Boutique. That was more than five years ago and I can't even imagine going back to my old, unmanicured ways now! LOL Nikki is an extremely talented nail artist who has attracted other amazing nail artists to join her boutique--the growth of her business has been incredible to witness. It is always a good vibe whenever I'm there. Since I've been a regular with Nikki, my nails have become stronger and grow faster. I credit this largely to the care she shows my nails during manicures as well as the helpful tips she has given me over the years. And it doesn't hurt that her nail art is always on point! I get so many compliments on my nails wherever I go, it has been a huge confidence boost for me. I have also bought a couple items from her clothing boutique that are super cute. I love browsing before/after my appointments. If you're in the market for an amazing nail artist, look no further than the technicians at Nail Vida Boutique!

I love how much she's grown and has brought in some new artists that are just as talented and keep the vibe and spirit of Nail Vida.

TL;DR your appointment is meaningless and you will wait. And wait. And wait…read more.. CeCe Nails 2 is a clean, bright salon and their prices are competitive. The biggest issue, unfortunately, is time management. While they take appointments, the experience feels more like a walk-in system. Even today, I had a 1:00 PM appointment. I wasn't brought back to the pedicure area until 1:30, and my actual pedicure didn't begin until 1:55. Unfortunately, this has been a consistent pattern every time I've visited. Once my pedicure finally started, the technician seemed distracted, constantly looking around the salon, and the entire service felt rushed. Another disappointing experience. She even handed me off halfway through. The worst experience happened when I booked an appointment about a month in advance for myself, my sister, and my niece. We intentionally scheduled morning manicure and pedicure appointments because we already had afternoon plans. When we arrived, we were brought back to the pedicure area and asked to start soaking. After about 15 minutes, someone began my pedicure. Then things really went downhill. Thirty minutes passed, then forty, and my sister and niece were still just sitting there with their feet in cold water. No one acknowledged them or gave any updates. At one point, I asked the person working on me if she could please stop and begin my niece's pedicure instead. She responded, "5 more minutes, almost done," while pointing to other clients who didn't even have polish applied yet. After over an hour, my sister finally decided to skip her services altogether so they could start my niece's pedicure. While my niece was getting her pedicure, someone simultaneously started working on her manicure, which made the entire experience feel rushed and awkward. After more than two hours: *My sister received no services at all *I only received my pedicure My niece ended up with a rushed pedicure and *what I'd loosely call a manicure The most frustrating part wasn't even the delay itself, it was the complete lack of communication or acknowledgment. We were simply left sitting there with no updates. So if you need appointments to actually fit your schedule, or if you're planning a visit with a group of 2-3 people, I sadly can't recommend this location.

With that said, if you live in the Niles, Des Plaines, Park Ridge areas, this is the BEST manicurist around, who is AMAZING at nail art (even if you don't live by, she's worth a drive). Even better are her prices! The value she offers is well worth the service. If you are new to the nail art game, it can be a time investment - my appointments for example are 2hrs - but, again, soooo worth it! The logistics; Elixir Beauty Bar by Traci Garcia is located INSIDE a salon called Chic Couture. It is not a stand alone business so you will not see Elixir on the outside of the salon business. There's plenty of street parking (free and paid) surrounding the business. The salon may or may not have someone to greet you at the door, but if you just let someone know you're there to see Traci or for Elixir Beauty, they will point you in the right direction. There's a coffee, tea, and water bar available right outside her door. Always good to stay hydrated! Traci, outside of being artistic, is super sweet. Very friendly. And she plays great music (especially if you like 80's music or 90's R&B, but also has a wide variety of genres). It's a good idea to have your ideas ready to share or show her, but even if you don't, she has sample art of what she can do all over the room as well as a deep range of colors. I book my appointments on styleseat.com and that also gives you an idea of all the treatments she offers. I specifically go to her for nail art on soft gel overlay, but she offers all kinds of options AND she's actually an esthetician, so there's an entire additional menu of services there that I haven't experienced. Additionally, she will send coupons out on occasion for different services. Hopefully she doesn't get too popular, otherwise I will have to fight to get on her schedule! But if she does get crazy busy, she deserves it. I love my nails every time I leave there.
