I was disappointed…read more I just moved to Arlington Heights and needed to find a new nail salon. I came across this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. I was easily able to make a same day appointment. When I arrived, no one was there and the shop was locked! I waited a few more minutes & called the shop and they said someone would be there soon. I'm guessing this place only has someone there if they have a scheduled appointment - however it definitely frustrated me that my nail tech was late. Once inside, I was impressed with the color selection and how nice and clean the salon was. The tech did a great job on my gel manicure and my pedicure. However, since I was the only one there she rushed me to leave and didn't check if my toes were dried- so by the time I got home all of the polish was smeared. I tried calling to schedule a time to get it fixed however never received a call back on the voicemail I left.

Worst salon you could possibly go to. Marina doesn't know the difference between blonde and brown…read more I went in because my blonde highlights needed a touch up. I left with brown hair. Talk about pissed off, she said my hair was too damaged and that she could use color to achieve what I wanted well she can't read ENGLISH and doesn't speak it well either. She used a brown color and I said it looked dark. She said no it is just the light in here. Well it wasn't the light. I of course called the owner immediately, the arrogant SOB, and he didn't offer any refund or anything except to come in and let them fix it. NOT A CHANCE IN HE// would I let them touch my hair again. FYI my hair is very healthy, not damaged at all. Do not use this salon

Last…read moreyear I was looking for a place that did designs on no chip/gel nails as a lot of places don't always offer it because of the layers/heating for no chip. Nikki nails not only does it, but does it really well! I've mostly seen Jay the last year and I enjoy him a lot; I've also seen Kevin twice when Jay was on vacation/unavailable. The service for me is always great and the establishment is always clean. Since then, I've recommended my mom to Nikki Nails and she also sees Jay now too for her no chips. Would definitely recommend!

They let you book your appt with Booksy, it's quick and easy. Being pregnant recently, the deluxe pedicure with Jay has been an especially rewarding treat for me! I love to bring my mama with as well. I like that they keep the chatter and small talk to a minimum because I talk all damn day as an RN at work, it's nice to have a quiet and peaceful environment. The deluxe pedicure includes a relaxing leg massage and a salt scrub for your feet that is very special! I like that they're polite here and staff has it quiet and serene in here. I think music could add a nicer touch though vs tv shows. I will be a regular customer, I love to work with the lady that does my manicure, she was patient and spent her time making sure I had the right colors for these cute ass Orange shade nails for my bday. I am very happy with my nails, I hope lots of others there can help with picking colors as the lady is very patient. She deserves five stars and so does my guy, Jay! Thank you Nikki Nails! Y'all are fire at your jobs.

There is a large display of colors to choose from, including cat eye polish and I think I saw chrome polish too. The salon is clean, bright, and relaxing. No loud music or people talking loudly to each other. The TVs had shows on closed caption and showing different nail art ideas. It's a nice place to get pampered. I made a same day appointment. They were able to get me in within 25 mins of me calling and I appreciated it! The gentleman on the phone was friendly and helpful. I got a text right away confirming my appointment. I've been going to various salons for manicures for over 30 years and First Nail Spa is way up there in amazing service! My nails look fabulous! I went in with Gel-X nails on a few fingers, a couple of cracked natural nails, and no-chip polish on the rest of my nails. Everything was quickly and carefully removed gently. She took her time caring for my cuticles and nails! The attention to details was great! I walked out with strong, beautifully polished nails and moisturized hands and cuticles! I have found a new nail spa with really friendly staff! I can't wait to return in 3 weeks with friends for a refresh on my manicure along with a pedicure!

But when it came to the manicure I asked for a simple design and she couldn't do it . She didn't have the tools and said there's no way she can do a design . Only one color nails . The first blue nails is what I asked for and the second is what I got my nails wasn't even cleaned and cut ended up paying $160

See previous review, below. More nails started coming off. I am going to ask for a partial refund…read more I got ONE party out of these nails and the cost was "$70 and up" (also had pedicure, do not remember exact breakdown of charges.) The good news is, these plastic nails did not require using the dremel to chew up my natural nail like gel nails, so my real nails are intact. 10/29/2023 Gorgeous clean lovely relaxing salon with peaceful relaxing music and pleasant staff. BUT! My full set of nails lost the one on the right thumb in less than 24 hours, and the right index finger just came off. Since this was a vacation and we are now 40 miles away, I can't go back for a second repair. And this was a spa-priced service. I'm thinking they are having trouble recovering from the pandemic, because the five star reviews are much older than more recent reviews.
