I never write reviews for nail salons because i really dont have a 'go-to' place around but I tried Today Nail Spa and they did not disappoint!! I got dip powder on my natural nails and they look amazing. He went all the way to the cuticle which I favor and they're all even, not thick, and he filed them perfectly. It was quiet when I came in on a Friday evening which was nice. Cant wait to come for a pedicure!

Great work!

Kevin was my nail tech and he shaped my nails perfectly and he did the design just as the picture I presented. They have airbrush, which not many places do anymore. I'm really happy to have a set place and I highly recommend Kevin

My friend and I came here for a pedicure and we will not be coming back. The lady that did mine scrubbed the side of my foot so hard that she left a pretty big mark on my foot. It burned afterwards, but I didn't see anything until later I noticed this..

Sunflower nails

Came in for a Gel no-chip manicure and was extremely pleased with my experience! The staff was very friendly and I felt really took their time to do a great job and ensured I was satisfied. The atmosphere for the spa is so peaceful and tranquil. After my nails I got my brows waxed and was extremely pleased! My brows have an odd shape, after getting them waxed my technician took her time and tweezed afterwards to ensure perfection. I am obsessed with the results! I won't go anywhere else for my nails or brows. I want to add that I went with my best friend for her bridal shower and I love the sunflower!!

Nail tub

This nail salon is really nice but there where dirty cup holders no gloves no new bags for the tubs they use their nails and remove the nail polish from them the bath room is so tiny and smells like chemicals and the nail salon is very very tiny and cramped.But they have some really quiet but nice workers it also smells like chemicals and dirty feet.

Nails that popped off.

I will never return to this salon! My friend, daughter and niece went to Today Nails last week. I had a simple request for white tips, one nail on each hand red with gel. The man did not understand what I wanted. I tried to explain it to 2 workers there and they didn't understand what I wanted. Finally I said just forget it and then 1 guy explained it. While getting my nails done the guy cut 2 of my fingers and I was bleeding. He showed no concern. Once my nails were complete I noticed one of my nails was extremely longer then the other! Very noticeable and I am not sure how he didn't notice it. Another guy drilled it down. As a couple of days went by I noticed my nails are extremely rough on the sides and not smooth at the bottom as they are growing. In a little over a week 2 nails have completely popped of my hand. I am very disappointed. Their prices are higher then most places in the area and their work is terrible. The eyebrow lady was very nice but I will not return there.

Paid 25 bucks for this!!!! Horrible place
Lexi W.

Absolutely horrible!!!! Went there because I wanted a certain shaped tip and the gentlemen that did my nails there before did a phenomenal job so I went in to see him and to my dismay he is no longer there, so I show the lady what I want and she says oh yes I can do that, yay perfect! Does the first nail, it looks good then the rest she files way to short and files my acrylic nail on an angle to wear it's filed past my nail bed. I explain that this isn't what I asked for and show her the pictures once again. She continues to argue with me "every nail different" "u nail bed is too big" "your finger to big for that" wow totally offended I say I don't wanna argue but I don't know what to do because this isn't what I asked for, so she send me to the older women whom is supposedly an owner. She is very short with me continues to tell me how fat my fingers are and how she is somehow going to fix it, I explain the only way It can be fixed is by completely taking the set off and putting a new one of and of course she doesn't want to redo the set and insists she can fix it after arguing I state how I just don't want them anymore then she tells me how she is willing to redo them (keep in mind at this point I am filling heated, to the point I was fuming I wouldn't be suprised if there was actually smoke coming out of my ears) i tell ger ill pay he4 for yhe acrylic but i just want to go because at this point i need to get my daughter and the last thing i want jd this lady grabbing violently at my hands again, she then cuts one of the nails I get very upset because I am being grabbed at and talked down to I offer to pay for the acrylic and she wants to now cut all the nails off so I just walk out, (apparently they consider that stealing, now keep in mind my nails are not finished the acrylics isn't filed finished and there was no polish) the man bucks up at me to stop me from going out the door and tells me he is calling the police I say ok, the older women is now pulling on my arms squeezing it till it hurts and digging her hands in my handbag. (What I have in my bag has nothing to do with this salon, the only product I got was a partial set of acrylic) so needless to say the cops side with the business and I pay $25 bucks to have my nail ripped off at the quick. Never going back I am definitely filing am lawsuit and I will stand my ground. On a side note does anyone know where the guy that used to work on the 4th table on the left side went? I need him in my nail fashion life? Oh and a big f&$! You to the people that work there now Just noticed now after I posted this review that the older woman actually took the money owed from you out of my pocket so I paid twice. Once without my consent and once because I was told my choice was to pay for the service that I didn't receive or get arrested because the business owners are always right... I guess

QT Nails & Spa is one of the best nail salons in McHenry. Originally I started going because they…read morewere open on Sundays which was rare, and I have been going faithfully for over 6 years now. All of the staff is amazing, they're all so kind and skilled at what they do. Each person has their own skill set so it might take you a few times to figure out who can help you the best, but you will definitely leave very happy with your nails. Everyone is very willing to help each other, you will often see the nail techs rotating stations on the busy days to help each other out and it shows how much they care about their customers, they're all trying to make sure everyone is getting a good service. They truly do care that the customers are happy, if you're not satisfied with something or if something breaks, you should always speak up or return to get it fixed, they are always willing to fix something to make sure you're happy. They are all human though and sometimes the salon can get busy but they try to take walk ins as much as possible, and even if it's busy, they at least try to get your feet soaking or your hands wrapped and let you know they'll be with you soon. Dana, the owner, is so talented at what she does, her designs are amazing. If you find a picture of something that you want, you can bring it in and show it to your nail tech and they'll do their best to recreate it for you, and if they can't personally do the design, they'll have another tech come and help just to make sure you get the design that you want. Dana and her sister Queen are constantly keeping up with social media to follow all of the latest trends for nail art and always buying new supplies to make sure they can do the newest designs. They can free style designs on your nails, they've got foils and stickers, a ton of different glitter and cat eye options, air brushing techniques and they'll even mix different elements to get you the perfect color. The color selection is INSANE, they have so much to choose from for no chip and dip, you're instantly provided numerous books of color to choose from and then the techs will get the bottles for you so you don't have to search along the walls. Pedicures here are also top notch, they recently got all new chairs for the pedicure area, including themed chairs for kids. The new chairs have so many massage options and a heat option. They've recently added new pedicure packages so that customers can have a spa-like experience for their feet. All of the prices per packages are listed right away so there's no secret charges which is super important. You're presented with a list of all the packages and allowed to choose, and even after choosing your package, you're then given multiple scents to choose from to make sure you're getting the best experience. QT Nails & Spa is very active on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. They're always posting videos to showcase the unique nails that customers are requesting to provide inspiration for others. I recommend QT Nails & Spa to everyone, it's the only place I'll go to even after moving.

I've been coming here for years and won't go anywhere else. They do a great job and are so…read morefriendly. They also do amazing artwork. Highly recommend!

Love valley nails.....very clean and Duke is the best ...great at nails and I had a wonderful…read morepedicure!!!!

Saw mixed reviews & gave it shot…read more Called & made 4:30 weekday appointment. They were able to fit me in for a no chip manicure & standard pedicure. It was easy to communicate & they were prepared when I arrived for my appointment. It is a very clean salon, which I've learned isn't easy to find in McHenry. They take pride in their place & it shows. Staff was nice & made you their focus which is always nice. No chip manicure - I went with French. Good job. I struggle to hav nail growth. I did feel like it was a rushed job, but it's been almost a week & they are doing well. My cuticles always need work & I am not that satisfied with how they look 5 days later. Standard pedicure - it was just that. No frills, but in a good way. They were mindful of water temp & your comfort. I asked for them to pick color since they know what looks best & is popular. Happy with the color. Nail shaping & cuticle's could have received more attention, but in no way was it a bad job. Also, probably needed color applied 3x vs 1. My heels are actually soft & they did very thorough pumice work. Many salons have drastically increased prices & its well over $100 for a mani & pedi which is why I hadn't been going as often as usual. Pricing here was very fair & what I think is reasonable: $65-70 No Chip $35 French Tip $5 Standard Pedicure $30 Customers were all also "kind" atmosphere & it wasn't a loud TV overly gossipy & judgy culture which is also great. Will definitely go back to find my person & hope to get consistency.
