Tina and her team do absolutely amazing work. I constantly get compliments about my nails and they last for longer than other places. They are clean, detailed and provide quality services. They do no-chip, acrylic, gel for hands and great pedicures. They also have waxing services as well. Definitely recommend this place for quality salon services. read more

Very happy with my gel nails. Tina does a lovely job and works quickly. She strives for perfection and I feel she achieves it. If I can't decide on a color, Tina offers suggestions. Michael does a great job with pedicures. I can honestly say the best pedicure I've ever had. Need to make mention that most of the staff doesn't speak English fluently, but Tina is always available to translate. She wants her clients to be happy and encourages you to ask for her assistance so you get exactly what you want. She's always ready to help. read more

I needed to get my nails done when I was in town, and I am glad that I found Best Nails! Located in a small strip plaza off of Waukegan, this nail salon was just what I needed! I brought my mom here as well, and we both decided to get pedicures. My nail tech was Ms. Mary, and she was super detail-oriented, in addition to being super sweet! She was very attentive in regards to cutting, shaping, getting my cuticles in-check, and painting each nail meticulously well. The foot and the leg massages were very relaxing and invigorating! You can make appointments ahead of time, but they also accept walk-ins. I recommend in requesting for Ms. Mary; if she is not available, there was another gentleman who seem to be as detail-oriented and super awesome with the nails as well! Friendly staff and great reasonable prices! +great pedicures +ask for Ms. Mary or the gentleman nail tech! +walk-ins welcome +parking in shared plaza lot read more

Enjoyable salon! Lots of nice women. Owner/manager was fun. Great pedicure at a great price

The owner, Tina, has been doing my nails for years! She is excellent. She has been certified to work during COVID-19 and keeps her shop safe and sanitary. Even my 83 year old mom, feels safe enough to go there. As a small business, she really needs your help, so no matter if you want a regular mani, peti, fills, gels, acrylics, no-chip-she's the professional for you! Below is my mani from this weekend! Looks like my own nails, right? They're not! My nails don't grow well and I don't like tips, so Tina extends the gel and makes me natural looking nails-Free-hand! This is our silver/pink French with a touch of sparkle. Thanks, Tina! read more

I've been to this salon quite a few times, I would say five. It's close to my work and they offer great prices. They prefer not to take credit/debit cards (the transaction fee is pretty expensive which I understand) so I normally pay via Zelle directly to the owner Tina. The first time I came here I was impressed by the service and how carefully Tina shaped and filed my nails. Even using the small drill bit tool around the cuticles to make sure there wasn't any dead skin and the application appeared natural. I came back two weeks later for a mani and I was satisfied, but not impressed. Third time, Tina (the only nail tech licensed for acrylic) was out and when I spoke to her she said her associate would be able to do a gel polish over the top of the acrylic after it was filed down and it would look great. It did not. I spent over an hour getting a mani and pedi and worked up the courage to finally tell them I was unhappy with the application of the gel polish, which should've been clear because it looked awful. Just awful. Bubbled and uneven and she had painted over my cuticles. They removed it with the drill bit and even though Tina was out of the salon due to personal reasons I will not disclose she FaceTimed her daughter and offered to come in to redo my nails. I did not have the time as it was closing in on 6:30 and I had been there for 1 1/2 hours and had dinner plans that same night. So I left with naked hands and a half decent pedicure. I say half decent because the nail tech (same older woman that did my gel manicure) did not scrub the bottoms of my feet and I think she felt embarrassed about the nail situation so she was trying to rush to get me out of there. I had a manicure in between here that was okay, nothing to report. But this last time really upset me. I called ahead as I normally do and told her what I wanted and scheduled a time. Showed up on time and she immediately started on my nails. When removing poly gel Tina was berating me on my naturally already extremely thin nails and it was uncomfortable. I'm sorry I get acrylics to make up for the thinness which in turn makes them more thin, a catch 22. Next time please be gentle and offer a solution for your client. Next, a young woman comes in for a pedicure. She was apparently a few minutes late as she had called ahead about 15 minutes prior saying she would be there in ten and upon arrival the owner said "you told me ten minutes." Then proceeded to mutter under her breath about the woman who had just arrived in front of me. She finished up the application of my acrylic and filed my shape, no filing of the top or cuticle to ensure an even nail shape and sent me over to the pedi chair. This pedicure was actually pretty nice. A good massage and I felt like he did a good job with the bottoms of my feet. Shaped my nails nicely and applied the polish evenly. Tina came over to finish my hands and only ran a buffer over each nail twice. Front and back. Then when they still had the dust on them she applied the polish. I had to ask her to go back to fully coat some nails and reach the sides. My cuticles looked terrible and the shaping is dismal. Uneven surfaces and on my right hand you can see the middle finger has an indentation on the side. It felt very rushed and I walked out feeling disappointed because I'm now on the search for another nail tech since the overall attitude towards customers here is indifference, and at times, even annoyance. I'm attaching pictures of my nails from this last visit. read more

My moms been going to Tina ever since I was a toddler and now here I am and I've never cheated. There's a reason for that. Tina (the owner) does a phenomenal job, maintains professionalism, and is kind and caring. She's become family and every referral I've sent over feels the same way. If you ever walked in there and were dissatisfied, give it another try, she doesn't disappoint. I'm always happy with her choices (because I can never pick a color) and the quality of her no chip manicures. read more

I came to Best Nails twice for no chip manicure. First time was fine, second time was the worst. First off, the lady that took my no chip off used her own nails to scrape off the old polish! Then she didn't even clean my nails before putting the new polish on. I've had manicures at other places before and they use cuticle remover to remove my cuticles, and they just make sure my nails are clean and smooth before applying polish. She didn't even let me wash my hands after removing the old polish, so I had a bunch of residue left on my hand. Now I have a bunch of bumps under the nail polish. Really disappointed in this place. She wasn't even busy. She was even just showing me videos on her phone instead of focusing on my nails. Definitely not coming back and do not recommend. **UPDATE** It's only been one day and my nail already chipped read more

I needed a new local nail place and thanks to YELP I found one! I called to make an appointment and Tina (the owner) scheduled me for a no-chip manicure and pedicure. I walked in and was greeted with smiles. They were super busy but Tina still acknowledged me and asked me to pick a nail polish. There's a huge selection of both OPI and Essie polishes. The lady who did my pedicure was very meticulous and did a fantastic job. A different lady did my no-chip manicure and she was as sweet as pie. The environment is relaxing, the ladies are professional, and I am overall very pleased with how my nails turned out. With all that being said.... Check this place out! :) You won't regret it. read more

Visiting from Vegas and stopped in here for a quick manicure before a fancy dinner. Kim did my nails and she was so sweet! It took about 35 minutes which was the perfect time... Not too long, but long enough that I didn't feel like she was rushing me. I even asked her to add a glittery top coat and she did! I was also pleasantly happy with the price. Only $12 for the manicure. read more

I love this place. It is so difficult to find a good, clean nail salon, where you don't get haggled to get more services than what you originally came here for. I got acrylics with an almond meets stiletto shape in mind. Tina did a great job with the length and making it smooth. Tina always does a great job on my nails. I always get compliments. I will continue to go to best nails as long as she is there. read more

I called to make an appointment and she said a soak off and full set is 30$ so why when I arrive she says 45$ because my nails are long. Who charges 15$ for length. She lied and picked a random price off her head because after she seen me in person she seen I was a minority. They discriminate against minorities and try to finesse like your dumb.Very unprofessional you must need that 15$ to pay the rest of your rent read more

Lady was nice, the shop looked clean, and she was able to fit me in quickly... only issue with my mani pedi was that she never used base coat before putting on the polish. I will have to give an update in the near future to see how long it last and how it affects my nails when the polishes chip off. UPDATE: It been one full week and the nails didn't upkeep. read more

Rating more Like 10 STARS!!!!!!! I have been seeing Tina & her mom for years now. The new salon that she has is BEAUTIFUL compared to the last. So welcoming with smiles to their faces. They will accommodated whatever time works best for your busy schedule. Tina sees me at 8:00 am every two weeks. If you are ever in the area make sure to drop in and give it a go to salon, you won't be disappointed. read more

I've been going to Tina for 5 years on and off. She is someone I'd consider an old friend at this point. She has amazing customer service and genuinely cares about her clients. The only thing is she tends to overbook and rush through clients manicures to get them completed. My only advice is for them to take their time, be more organized, and to use a new file every time they do someone's nails. It's kinda gross when they re-use old files. With all the horror stories you hear that's the reason I took a star away. Prices are on point and I'll be back. read more

I went in for a no chip manicure & Pedicure. I tried it because close to home but did not plan on coming back. The no chip manicure was done pretty sloppy where the base is uneven and now showing more that they're growing. One Nail started to chip within a few days and now a few more are chipping within just under two weeks. My no chip manicures normally last to me a good three weeks and I get them redone because they grow out, not because they chip. They were also more expensive as I paid $60 plus tip, more so than other salons in the area. I wanted to give it a try but will not be returning unfortunately. read more

I stop in every once in a while, if I'm in the neighborhood and I need a fill or a pedicure or waxing. The salon is clean and modern. The technicians are professional, sweet, and excellent at what they do. Moreover, the prices are extremely reasonable. I always leave feeling like it was money well spent. read more

I had a wonderful experience today. I am not a regular mani/pedi kind of gal, but I decided to try out a place by my house that had good reviews. First of all, the place was cute, clean, and relaxing. Also, the women there were top notch and sweet. I met the owner, Tina, and then had a no chip mani/pedi with Kim. She was outstanding. We had great conversation and she did meticulous work. I am excited to go back in a couple weeks (I already made my next apppointment). I have tried a couple other places in the area and, honestly, there is no comparison. I'm a fan! read more

Can't wait to get my pedicure again. read more

What a bad experience! I felt as though I was being brushed off by the women I think was the owner. I was treating myself for my first Mother's Day and the was the most half .. mani I have ever received! She quickly filed my nails while I was getting a pedi and didn't even ensure that they were the same length. They were rough around the edges when she slapped on the nail polish. The tools for my pedi didn't look clean and I didn't notice until after the fact. They were nice to their regulars and crappy to everyone else. read more

I absolutely love this place! Tina, the owner, is amazing and a great person. I use to go to a nail place is Skokie for years but they started to just not care about their work. My friend told me to check this place out a year and a half ago and I haven't gone anywhere else since! They are accommodating, do great work and above all they are fair. They understand if you accidentally smudged your nail they'll fix it without talking under their breath about how annoying it is to fix it. Love them!! read more

I've been coming to Tina & her mom for about 7 years now, since we started seeing her regularly when she worked at Hollywood nails, then Magic Nails, and finally at Best nails. The prices have always been great, and I've always had great service. Out of all the salons she's been at, this one is by far the nicest. It's clean, the décor is nice and relaxing. Her business partner also does hair which is a plus since I can get my nails done and get a haircut if I want. They always try to accommodate everyone, so it's always a good idea to phone ahead or make an appointment, even though they do take walk ins. Tina also is the best at threading my eyebrows, as I am a blonde and some of the very light, very fine hairs can be a pain in the butt. read more

I came here after running some errands in the neighborhood and needed a no chip manicure before my friends wedding. The place is small and there were 3 ladies working there. But they were able to get me in although everyone of them had a client. There is a very large selection of colors for no chips, they have CND, OPI and Gelish - which are all very good brands. After I was done picking a color they were able to get started! Helen was my tech and she also told me they do facials, hair and waxing there. She was very good. The other clients seemed like they were long term customers of the place. I will come back, plus the no chips are only $30! read more

Everyone here is talented- Tina did my brows, Gina did my pedicure, and Kim did my no-chip manicure. They are all so friendly and helpful, and they made me feel important as soon as I walked in. At other nail salons, the artists can be curt and leave you feeling confused, but at Best Nails, it's obvious they care about their customers and engage them in conversation, making them feel comfortable. The whole experience was relaxing and entertaining at the same time. One bonus is that the salon is quite clean. Loving the job they did! I definitely found my new go-to mani-pedi place! I recommend everyone to come here for a quality mani-pedi for a reasonable price. read more

My fingernails chipped the next day and I felt rushed. My pedicure and manicure were done in a half an hour. When I go to other places, they take their time and it's a relaxing experience. Not here. Maybe I just got a bad tech, but I don't think I'll be back. read more

Tina is awesome!!! she always finds a way to get me in even when she is busy and always makes my nails look clean & pretty. She is cool and very honest, will look at your nails and tell you exactly what you need and never force something expensive on you that you don't need done. Her service is all about nice nails and toes. Been going to her for about 8 months now and although there are other new places near me that opened up, I drive out of my way to see her. read more

I absolutely love coming here. Even after moving an hour away. I make the trips here because everyone is just amazing. I never feel rushed even when they are working with multiple customers.

I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I had only about 45 minutes to spare so decided to get a quick pedicure. I didn't think i would have enough time to also get a no chip manicure in but they somehow made it happen!
