    A Crystal Blue Evening!!♥
    Laveta C.

    I chose Shine Nails Chicago after reading about Ericka and following her on Instagram for a while. I had an important Scholarship gala that I was attending and all I could tell her was that I wanted shades of blue gel manicure. This is what she came up with. This is the first manicure I've ever had that didn't hurt. She took time and care with my nails, even extending a broken one to be the same length as the others. I was tired of going to nails salons where they just holler "Pick a color and sit over there," at you when you walk in, and they rush so they can get on to the next customer. Ericka took her time and her creativity is beautiful. A week later and I still love them! They were a hit!

    Came to Chicago for a conference and didn't have time for a mani before getting to town. Was lucky enough to get an appt with Erica- she couldn't have been nicer and she did a great job.

    Bubbles everywhere. Wasted mani :(

    Absolutely loved my experience here will definitely be coming back! My pedicure was so relaxingread more

    I can't get a regular pedicure because I am doing chemotherapy and I'm immunocompromised. I came in…read moreand the only thing they did that was kind as well as correct was just offer me a polish change. I wanted French but they said they couldn't do French unless the base was clear because they use nail polish remover to make the French design. That seems like inexperience to me. I've been to places where they do French over a pink base with regular polish but this is not the spot for that. So we pivoted because I didn't want gel polish. I said I'd go to the car and get the regular color I had on my fingernails. The woman started putting clear polish on my toes so I couldn't put on shoes and go get it. Since I was in a rush we just decided on a pink dnd color with funny bunny on top to make it more white. The joke was on me trying to be in and out. I showed up at 2 and didn't leave until 3:30. It should not have taken an hour and a half for a polish change. The original woman made the funny bunny coat on top too thick and lumpy. So I asked her if she could remove it and I could redo it. I repainted my big toe correctly and then another nail tech came and touched my toenail to see if it was dry and ended up smudging the polish. We had to take it off again. The nail tech that had messed up my nail repainted it but did the same mistake as the first tech. The polish is old and lumpy and unless you put it on thinly, it is going to be lumpy on the toe. So she removed it and said a other tech would try to paint it. When that nail tech finally did come over 20 minutes later, she was able to fix the issue because she found a bottle of funny bunny that wasn't dried out. But most importantly, she listened to what I had been saying from the start. My original nail tech never came back out. And I'm annoyed that I had done it correctly and then they messed it up. I would avoid this place unless you're getting gel. Even the last nail tech said it would have turned out better if I had gotten gel. They seem not to be able to do the basic regular polish well. Just do your own nails at home if you want regular polish. I know I will be. There was also a man on FaceTime on speakerphone in the shop and we were forced to hear his conversation for the entirety of his pedicure. They did not ask him to get off of speaker. It was really annoying and not a relaxing environment.
