Also, aside from the infection, this isn't even a great pedicure. It's only been two days. Do better.
Wallis Y.

Took forever. Chunky, poor sculpting skills for sculpted (acrylic) nails, which had to be redone and ultimately were completed poorly with one coat of gel paint, not several covering the re-shaped area resulting in uneven paint application. The first person doing my manicure also braised me with the drill on my fingertip, which he shrugged off, dismissing my pain. Insane. I also woke up to left with a toe oozing pus yesterday because they are overzealous at removing side cuticles during pedicures and dunking your foot into unsanitary tubs. Overall would not recommend, the level of service for the price point is wild left $120 poorer and what do I have to show for it?

Best no-chip manicure! They really take their time and the quality is impeccable. I've had it on for 2 weeks now and color hasn't chipped/faded and my nail beds are still in great shape. Highly recommend!

Beautiful nails!

Highly recommend! What a beautiful community spot! Great care and attention to detail. Loved the quality and the owner is so friendly and happy! Plus massage chairs!!!! LOVE!!!! I also got the volcano pedicure which was so relaxing. It include a scrub, fizzy water, hot towel and massage. At the time I went there was even a 20% discount on services!!!

I went in for a manicure with gel. The lady who attended me was rude and wasn't answering my questions that were specific to the manicure. She grew impatient when she gave me two options of nail color and I took a few seconds to decide which one I wanted. The place only had four customers including myself. When I would put my hands in the warming gel machine my fingertips felt like they were burning. I hadn't experienced that before so I asked her why my fingertips were experiencing a burning sensation and she wouldn't answer. She was on her cell phone a lot too. I went on vacation the next day for five days so no cooking or washing dishes. By the 3rd day the gel was bubbling up. On the fifth day a piece of the gel came off. By the 7th day the gel of two nails had come off and on another one it was almost all gone. I went to get it removed and luckily I had someone else, probably the owner, do it for me. She was understanding and didn't charge me for the removal. She said she was surprised because the gel is supposed to last 6 weeks. If that was the case, why not offer to do my nails again for free or reimburse me for the $50 unsuccessful nail work? I will not go back even though the lady (probably owner/ manager) said that she would take care of my nails next time instead of going with the other lady. Maybe the day was off and the nail tech had a rough day so she made a mistake. I really don't know what happened.

Dip French manicure

This was my first visit to this nail salon for a dip manicure, and I couldn't be happier. April did an amazing job! I also really appreciate that they respect appointment times and don't overbook walk-ins, so there's no waiting if you have a scheduled appointment. I'll definitely be returning!

April was so kind and nails turned out exactly how I wanted !!!! Would recommend this place to anyone & everyon

I moved to Chicago in January and was overwhelmed by the options for nails, but chose April's because it was close. I am SO glad that I did. The atmosphere is relaxed and kind and my nails have looked incredible. I feel like they spend as much time is needed to make the nails exactly what you want. I've never felt rushed there and my nails have never chipped and usually last until they have grown out. They are always able to squeeze me in and are genuine (somehow they remember what I do and ask about my partner every time!). I will not be going anywhere else. For the quality and ease of always being able to schedule a time or walk in, their prices are great. I've gotten a few more complicated designs on my nails and they were able to perfectly match a photo I brought in. I cannot recommend them enough. There is also always (free) street parking which is another bonus.

Really great pedicure with decent price point! My mom and I had a great time. Everything looked sanitary and clean. Will be back.

French manicure

Loved this place will definitely come back. I got french tip manicure and pedicure, it was very well done. The vibe is bright, open, and very friendly.

Appointment scheduling was so convenient this morning and Becky was incredibly sweet with getting…read moremy daughter and I in last minute... after visiting I can understand why many reviewers noted booking their appointments a month ahead. (We were lucky to get in last minute with a major football game falling at the same time as our appointment). The interior of the nail salon is so calming, love the soft lighting, the pleasant background music on, TV with close captioned Golden Girls going and bohemian interior with its crystal chandeliers, Moroccan stencils on one window, subway tile on a wall, and French chic pieces throughout. You don't feel like you're in a nail salon. Estella and Michelle did our honey and milk spa pedicures (the upgrade was worth it) and regular manicures. Both were great and our paws and hands feel so much better as a result. I wish this salon existed back home... I love the little touches as well on how this salon supports good causes and takes the longer route to remove gel versus electric filing which always feels like it damages the top of my nail. Really great business and looking forward to return visits!

Everyone here is very friendly, and scheduling was very easy via text. I could tell they have a lot…read moreof regulars and they remember their names and details about them so they can check in with them and have meaningful conversations, which was nice. It's also less expensive than other places I've been to. However, I came for a no-chip mani and regular pedi, and it took over 2 hours, and the no-chip chipped the next day on one finger. I've been to other nail salons for the same service and it took half the time and did not chip. I wish them well but don't think I'll be back.

I've been going to Cassie for about two years now and I followed her from KA Studio to here! The…read moresalon is absolutely GORGEOUS and so spacious! I ended up getting my proposal and engagement party nails by her so I had to come get my wedding nails done by her as well. She did not disappoint! Every time she does a set, they last so long and they look exactly like the picture inspo I showed her. I got a pedicure with my MOH and a full set and they were so kind and patient with us both. Obviously a little pricey but for the quality you're getting, you might as well go to a place that knows what they're doing.

TLDR: DO NOT COME HERE FOR DAZZLE DRY, spend your money elsewhere!…read more I booked an appointment here for dazzle dry manicure and pedicure, about $15 above the average price in the area. When I arrived, I saw to my dismay they had a much more limited array of dazzle dry colors, so I had to compromise on a toe color that was an off red when I wanted a more classic red. It was hard to tell though how off, as the space was dimly lit with blue white light that made it hard to picture what it would look like in sunlight. I unfortunately do not know the name of my nail technician, as on the reservation it said a female name but he was a man. My pedicure and manicure ended up being much faster than at other places, and as he started my left hand a female technician came up and started chatting and they just continued to talk the rest of my appointment. My manicure was a light color and I was outside I realized the thumb was not only very clearly not even layers, but it also had ripples. I unfortunately did not take a picture, but by the time I was able to come back five hours later I also realized there was multiple pin prick holes on my left hand nails; which means he likely did not know how to apply dazzle dry and put the layers on too thick and without drying, which already did not look great and also meant they were likely to chip further within a couple days. When I came back and asked them to redo the hand, they insisted I be seen by the same man as before despite me asking for someone more experienced with dazzle dry. He redid my thumb but refused to redo the other nails with holes other than to put clear. While the thumb looked better, it still had either a crack or a dark hair or something and still wasn't even. At this point I asked if they could just refund me the $20 for dazzle dry as I was going to need to repaint it soon but respected they had done the rest of the manicure/pedicure and they said absolutely no refunds. They finally gave me someone else who actually did fix it, but this meant my second trip took forty minutes, which was really upsetting because I had paid for dazzle dry as I was busy and wanted something that would dry fast and last a longer time. I have attached photos of fingers after the SECOND ATTEMPT. He also did not file my big toes evenly, they still had bumpy edges.

I NEVER thought I would be the type of person to write reviews, but this place truly deserves one…read more So I am taking the time to write one! because other people definitely have to check this place out! I went in for a pedicure and a no-chip French tip. When I left, I wasn't completely satisfied the tips were a bit crooked and too thin, and the French base was more milky white instead of the neutral pink I prefer. I didn't say anything at the time because I'm pretty shy, and I didn't want to come off bratty. After showing my nails to a friend, she encouraged me to call and get them fixed. I was hesitant because I didn't want to come off as someone who complains, but I'm really glad I did. The receptionist was incredibly sweet, super apologetic, understanding, and accommodating,. She encouraged me to come back in and insisted they could fix them . When I returned, another nail tech gladly fixed my nails exactly how I wanted them. Not once did anyone make me feel uncomfortable or like I was being difficult. They were kind, patient, and genuinely welcoming the entire time!!!!!! Great customer service makes all the difference, and they really delivered!!!!! I truly appreciate how they handled everything . I was super happy!!!!! Definitely recommend this place!

Great place with super friendly staff! Great location and places to eat or shop close by!read more
