Great service here. They always ask if I want water and they have a great selection of nail polish. I don't normally have a go to person for nails but I've gotten my nails done by Phil a few times and I really enjoyed his work. Located in a plaza so parking is easy. Definitely recommend! read more

Large and busy salon located by Crumbl and Ruby of Siam. I booked two online appointments for manicures (me and a friend), and when we arrived, they couldn't find our reservation. Luckily I had kept my text confirmation. I loved the collagen gloves and hot towels, and the hand massage was very relaxing. I found myself almost nodding off. Once done, they directed us to the light shelf to give our nails extra drying time. Still, I smudged my thumb nail. Overall, very professional and my nails still look pretty good. read more

This nail salon went above and beyond for us last night. I took my 5 y.o. daughter here as a special treat for us both, as she loves doing her nails at home. She's very petite and the techs did not miss a beat accommodating her: special chair cushion, special pedicure bath, candy on our way out, the works. They really listened to her and took great care of us both. If you're a parent and your kid is into nails, (or you just want a quality mani pedi experience) I highly recommend them. read more

I have been coming for Dip & Manicure for three years. Jimmy's an absolute artist; he has freehand painted roses, dragonflies and snowflakes for me. Everyone is always so nice, and there are a lot of regulars. The salon is very clean and recently got a small redesign and new products. read more

Came here as a walk in & recommendation from a friend. Very big but busy salon. Lots of colors & services for you to choose from. I went in for my acrylic removal.. nail tech was gentle and friendly with me. I believe I paid about $50 for removal & dip. Not bad at all & service was quick! read more

Great place, Very clean and fine. Great work and experienced employees. Love the massage chair. Lol. My legs are smooth after my pedicure read more

Best nail salon you can go to! Been coming here for almost a year now, I am never disappointed! Always a great experience, me and my sister love to come together and the front desk ladies are also the sweetest ladies ever! Always offering water to customers. Forgot to mention: Cleanest nail spa I ever been to!!! Bonus points; they have a huge color selection which I absolutely love. Thank you Salon XPression! read more

I've been going here about 3 years. I started out seeing Jimmy, who's great! But then Vu joined the team, at which I knew from another location and I moved over to him just because I had a long connection with him AND he does awesome work with whatever style you want. All in all this salon is very satisfying and clean. read more

First time today- horrible job on my pedicure. Very rushed and she didn't pay attention to detail. I had to ask 3x for Lyann to fix it and even then she was rude. This was highly recommended by a friend. Avoid this technician at all costs horrible service. read more

I have only visited this place recently as my nail guru just landed here. This place is quite big and very clean. Every time I come here someone is cleaning. I am only here because my nail guru who is absolutely amazing and awesome is here now. The front desk staff is very nice and very helpful. I have yet to get a pedicure here but I definitely will. This space is very impressive as soon as you walk in. It is in a strip mall, however parking is very ample and easy to locate. read more

All around GREAT Experience. I come here as often as I can as I work north but live south so can't get there everytime but if I could I most certainly would. Been going there before the pandemic & have never EVER had a bad job done at all. Very clean, very very large selection of polishes, dips, etc, peaceful environment AND...... they don't start talking in their native language when your feet are bad ( when you know they are)!! Just a terrific place read more

I love this salon it is spotless. Everyone that works here is happy and the versatility helps to make the choice of grooming easy, Whatever you are after, they have it! Just try it, I give Xpression ***** read more

I have been coming here since this nail salon opened. I just waited 40 minutes in a pedi chair and still no tech! Got up and left and the response was "so sorry we are short staffed." If you said half off next time or something to that effect maybe I would return. Horrible customer service. I was just contacted by the owner. I'm so happy that the situation has been rectified as I have had amazing service from this salon in the past. read more

This salon is very organized in the quality is great. I've worked with Susan and she's awesome with my nails. Definitely recommend this place. read more

I've given this place many chances and unfortunately today was my final straw, I won't be going back. The actual nail work is not bad and decently priced, but they are never on time with what they promise. I had an appointment for 5pm and called asking if I could move it earlier to 12pm. They said no problem. I show up and they didn't take me until 12:45. At checkout, I asked if there was anything they could offer for the inconvenience and who I believe is the manager said no, we are trying to keep up with the holiday season. I understand that, but then why agree to take my appointment if you know you can't accommodate me at the given time??? Just be honest and don't waste my time. This has happened more than once unfortunately, though in the past I was given a coupon for next time or SOMETHING. I guess they just don't care about customer service anymore read more

This place is 4.5 stars - it's easy to make an appointment online, it's clean, and they're consistent.

SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE. I should've listened to those 1 star reviews. Find yourself a private nail tech from social media and save yourself 80% of the price of a salon. After my private nail tech wasn't available, I tried this salon and it was an absolute scam. I have never paid so much for nails in my life. $180 for a mani/pedi with builder gel on SHORT nails. I initially wanted an acrylic overlay on my hands -- which is $53. After hounding me to do builder gel instead, the price jumped to $75. And NO ONE mentioned it. If I already knew what I wanted and you're telling me to do something else, at least be clear about the price jump? But no, that's how they get you. My pedicure was $90! Online it's $50. When I asked to explain the price they said it's because of the added builder gel, filing, cuticles, and removing my previous nails. I asked her about charging me full price even though I requested builder gel only on my big toes. I also had an acrylic overlay on my toes so there was no soak off or anything, just FILING it off. If I already had an acrylic overlay and just needed a fill, why are you then putting builder gel on top of it? That makes 0 sense. Then I asked her how are they charging me for cuticles and filing when online, that process is already included in the $50 pedicure. No explanation or breakdown for anything. Just $10 off. Mind you this is after they had 4 different people working on my nails -- why? Because no one knew how to do the acrylic so they pushed the builder gel without being clear on the huge price jump. Then the front desk lady starts talking to me about when I come in "next time"-- are you crazy to think I would come back again after you just overcharged me double? I do not recommend this place. Safe yourself the trouble. read more

Very clean and well organized nail salon. Staff was friendly and accommodating. It was my first time here I did the collagen pedicure and an express manicure. Prices are very reasonable and comparable to other salons. My nail tech, Kate extreme attention to details which I love. It was overall very relaxing and I highly recommend this place to try out. read more

First time here. I would rate them a 5 for cleanliness and friendly staff. Thank you for the water. I had a no chip manicure, manicurist did them fairly quick. She trimmed my cuticle, and did a great job with that. The nails looked great until I noticed when I got home that they were painted fairly far from my cuticle. Because my nails grow a bit quick, see picture, this photo was taken after 5 days. If my nails were painted closer to the cuticle they wouldn't be looking like this. They looks like 3 weeks nails. I will give them another chance and next time will ask they be paint them closer to my cuticle. Just sharing this so this won't happened to you if your nails grown fast. I can't afford a no chip every two weeks. read more

Love how large this establishment is...so many chairs which means less waiting time. I walked in with no appointment Sunday afternoon and was seated right away. We're all busy sometimes and can't plan ahead to make appointments all the time so I like that the salon is flexible for their clients. It's located in a strip mall so ample parking- Nice friendly service from all the staff, very CLEAN, consultant's attention to detail is great. A lot of nail polish colors, both no chip and dip powder options- This is my new Go To place! read more

I tried to give this place a chance and they just mess up every time! The manager/owner is money hungry and price gouged everything and blind sided people the hell out of my service because the tech decided something else and quoted me different prices. I was told 130 upon check in and check out at 160 ... 30 dollars extra cuz the nail tech recommend something else because the French tip I wanted wasn't going look good..... This not how you do business! As an owner do better we come here respect our money and time also would i come here again the answer is NO! There's other places that charge way else and respect your time and up front with their pricing! The owner just throws prices off of her head nothing is listed! read more

Came here for the first time after my laser appointment a few doors down. I had no appointment but I was taken care of right away. I chose mani/dip and was assigned to Sally. She was excellent and thorough. I love the results. The atmosphere is clean and organized. read more

This place never disappoints. Anna is fabulous. She does the best pedicures. I went to other places that ruined my nails. Came here and she fixed the problem. Never again. Very friendly and understanding. Also can't leave out Jimmy is great love his personality. read more

if you're looking for that one review that gives you the reassurance that the place will be good, this is the one. first time trying this place today after trying many salons in the suburbs and this salon is downright great. I went in for a no chip mani pedi done by the lovely katie (hope you see this review!) and it was amazing. I have no complaints & she did a miraculous job in a short time! the salon itself is super clean, spacious & everybody is nice. you even get offered a water when you walk in, if I could rate more than 5 stars, I would. highly recommend. read more

I have been coming here for just over two years now and WOW! This salon is always so clean, well organized and quick. The women at the front desk are always so kind and efficient. The plethora of nail techs are all so talented, I never have to pick just one I want to see! Very friendly staff and clean environment. I always leave satisfied read more

Save your money! Went there 4-6 times in the last few months. The last gel manicure was a joke. The manicurist was unapologetically rude. To top it off, there were sharp edges and uneven application. I wish I documented it. In the moment, Helen attempted to rectify the situation. She had another manicurist fix the sharp edges. Helen said, "don't worry, next time we will take care of you." I call the salon today, and she has no recollection of this incident. In the system, there is no "documentation." It's not worth the hassle! read more

I am one to read reviews and never post. However, I will take a second and say that I was so impressed by everything! From the moment I walked in I was immediately addressed. But what made me even write this was Annie. She was professional . Gentle. Detailed. Overall someone you seek from a nail tech. Mind you, I've had my years of experience with nail techs. With that being said, I'm so happy with the outcome and you guys just gained a new client. read more

If I can give zero stars I would!!! Made an appointment at 6:30. Didn't seat us until 7:20 - had my daughter soaking in water for about 20 minutes. No tech was available! If I asked if I should come back at a later time and she said no. Waste of time when I could of gone somewhere else. Left with my nails worse than what I came in with!!! read more

I arrived early at 5:10pm for an 5:30pm appointment. The place is chic and CLEAN. All the staff are nice, specially the manager who is attentive and pleasant to customers. It was a busy day for them when I came. I've waited for 30 minutes before they asked me to sit down inside then I have waited another 15 minutes before the technician came to do my no-chip manicure. They did a good job on my nails it's just that I have waited for 45 minutes. I got out around 7:38pm. I understand that sometimes they get busy but waiting for that long is unacceptable but I still stayed because they are very nice and I love how they did my nails. I will give it another try. read more

Top notch service and very accommodating to the customers needs and they go out of their way to make sure the customers are happy. The manager and the technicians are friendly and put their hearts into the Salon and you can tell. The Salon is extremely clean and I feel very safe there. Everything is sanitized over and over again. I love this place. They have more color choices and brand choices than I have ever seen in the multiple nail salons I have been to. If I could give them 10 stars I would. read more

I've been coming here a year ago. Very clean, professional service. Everyone very nice, helpful do a excellent job. My nail tech May is make a great job always and it's very hard to do a customer who's a nail tech too! English is our second language and not polite talking front of a customers different language but we just have to deal with that. I'm a very picky customer and I'm a happy customer with May job. Highly recommend this place. read more

I came in wanting a fill in and cut down on my acrylic nails. The women who did my nails filed them down so small that I had to take them off and get a full set : / She plastered acrylic on my new set, did 4 thick coats of nail polish! And my nails looked terrible. Thick, bumpy, crooked, and super wide. Was very disappointed. read more

Came here on a whim after shopping at the Old Orchard Mall. They took me in immediately. I did a no chip manicure and pedicure. Sam gave me the most amazing pedicure left my heels feeling so smooth! I was unable to Make up my mind about what color I wanted, She even helped me pick a color and matched it with my toes. Only complaint is 2 of my nails chipped within a week on my vacation, so sad because I have another vacation planned this weekend and I'll have 2 chipped nails Nevertheless I'll probably come back here if I'm ever in the area and hopefully with Sam! read more

They were able to get me in last minute and we're accommodating when I had to change my appointment. Got a cats eye gel mani and a regular pedi for less than most places in the area charge. Very pleased with both. The gels lasted almost a month without chipping and the pedi is just now starting to need to be redone (6 weeks) read more

I loved coming here! I recently moved to the area from Champaign, IL. When I was living in Champaign I was a loyal customer to Salon Xpression then I came to find out that they had another location in Skokie! My experience here was just as wonderful as my experiences at their Champaign location. The staff was very kind, attentive, and through with my nails! I got a dip manicure as well as the sport pedicure! I will recommend this salon to friends and return again! Also, if you love wine, they have it here to enjoy while you relax! Cheers! read more

Just went there for the first time to get my pedicures since I'm new through the area. the lady that did my pedicure was very rough with my feet. it was definitely not a relaxing experience. I was in pain the entire time she did the pedicure she was not gentle and definitely not polite after she was done. I asked her where I can dry my nail polish and she said take your shoes and go up to the front. It was the first time I was at the salon, so with a bit confusion, I walked to the front and finally found the place to dry my nails. I would think it would be nice if she would walk me to the table and show me where is she didn't have another client and she definitely had time to do that definitely will not be back because I know I have scars on my feet where she cut me in several areas because she was so rough. read more

Came here with my friend with an appointment, great service as before, had tea, coffee, and water on hand. I came in to get no chip with nail art with crystals done for the new year, love it, and I like how they register the color you use. They guarantee to redo if it chips within a few days. I'm not use to getting my nails done regularly, so I think I found my spot to come in on occasion to treat myself. read more
