This is my new nail spot! From the moment you walk in, you're immediately in awe. The salon is so bright, clean, and beautifully decorated. It has such a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. I got an express pedicure and absolutely loved the outcome! Pedicures start at $35 and go up from there, and I love that they have such a great variety of services to choose from. They even offer complimentary drinks, which was such a nice touch! The staff was extremely friendly, welcoming, and happy to answer any questions we had. I took my mom and sister in law with me, and we were lucky enough to get a little private room with a TV, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We were able to relax, catch up, and enjoy some quality time together while getting pampered. read more

I've been coming here regularly for months because the technicians do excellent work. Renni's nail art is beautiful, Grace gives an amazing foot massage, the salon is beautifully decorated, they offer complimentary drinks and snacks, and they have a great selection of polishes. Unfortunately, the customer experience has been consistently overshadowed by long wait times and poor scheduling. Whether I book an appointment or walk in, I almost always end up waiting. Most recently, I waited over an hour past my appointment time before being seen. This wasn't a one-time occurrence--it's been a recurring issue throughout the months I've been coming here. What made the situation more frustrating was being told by the front desk that they had never been instructed to stop accepting walk-ins, even when appointment schedules were full. That explains why having an appointment often feels meaningless. I've also been told there was enough time for both a manicure and pedicure, only to end up staying well past closing. I've even offered to split services and come back another day to help accommodate scheduling challenges, but the delays continue. After waiting over an hour at my most recent appointment, I asked whether anything could be done for the inconvenience. For the second time, the manager told me he couldn't offer a discount because he needed to pay his employees. That response completely missed the point. No customer is suggesting employees shouldn't be paid. The issue is management repeatedly overbooking, running behind schedule, and failing to respect customers' time. As a parent with a husband and baby waiting for me at home, an extra hour isn't a minor inconvenience. Time matters. If the salon had been transparent about wait times and taken accountability for the recurring delays, I likely would have remained a customer. The technicians are talented, and the salon itself is beautiful. Unfortunately, great service can only go so far when appointment times are treated as optional and customer concerns are met with excuses instead of solutions. Beautiful salon. Talented technicians. Consistently poor time management. read more

I know I recently wrote a review, but I wanted to add some additional feedback. They have signage at checkout that states their no chip manicure is guaranteed to last 10 days. After doing some house work with my hands, two of my nails got chipped within 3. I came back in and management quickly offered a solution and technician fixed the 2 nails at no cost. Front desk staff even offered me a beverage. That is excellent customer service. Thanks coco nail team. read more

Grace did my pedicure and did an excellent job. I got the citrus scrub and got some diamonds on my toes for my wedding. Grace was so attentive and such a perfectionist on making my toenails perfect. You get a free drink with your services and a massage chair. Scrub and leg massage and a bunch of other services were included in the package I chose. It was wonderful. read more

Along with drinks and snacks! Everyone was so so amazing. I had Scarlett and she did excellent, even picked a great color for me. It was such a great happy refreshing vibe we will definitely be back. read more

First time here and right from the start they impressed me with the friendly atmosphere. We were put in our own room with a TV (that we control) and fireplace. They seat you and give you a menu of services to choose from. Then they bring you a menu for drink selections, We chose the mojitos! Next comes the snack choice...wow we felt like royalty!! They even brought me a polish menu to choose from It's not only beautiful here but clean too!! I would recommend Coco Nail Bar! read more

TL;DR: My first appointment was very disappointing due to poor structure and service. However, the salon followed up twice to offer a refund or redo. I returned for a fix, and the second experience was significantly better. I appreciate the accountability. Star: 3.5 but since that isn't an option, I went with 4 (rounding up). I originally booked a Russian manicure with Gel-X and left extremely disappointed. The service did not match what was booked, the manicure was incomplete, and no proper apex was built, leaving the nails structurally unsupported (see photos). From the front they looked fine, but the side profile clearly showed the lack of structure. I arrived for a 2:00 PM appointment and wasn't seated until about 2:20 PM. The salon felt understaffed, I wasn't offered the complimentary drinks advertised on Instagram, and there was a strong acrylic/chemical smell throughout the salon. I had to request a mask while waiting. The technician did not confirm the service before starting. The "Russian manicure" consisted only of a quick spray and cuticle clipping -- no proper prep -- yet I was charged $10. The filing was aggressive and uncomfortable. The color did not match my reference, and there was a visible dip from apex to tip. Without a proper apex, longer nails lack support and are more prone to breakage if accidentally hit. I would have gladly paid for builder gel if needed -- I just wanted correct structure. After my service, a staff member explained they are currently undergoing management changes, updating their drink menu, and that I came during a busy time. While I appreciate the explanation, it did not change the final result of my nails. After my review, the salon contacted me twice to make things right. They offered either a refund or a redo because they did not feel comfortable keeping my money while I was unhappy. I returned Wednesday evening, and the experience was much better. A different technician removed the original set, performed a proper Russian manicure, reviewed my reference photo carefully, and rebuilt the Gel-X with correct structure and apex. The result turned out much closer to what I originally requested. I tipped him $20 because he had to redo a full set that wasn't his mistake (plus, for his time and effort). While my first visit was disappointing, I do want to acknowledge that the salon made a genuine effort to correct it. I appreciate the follow-up and accountability. read more

This place is gorgeous! I attended a grand re-opening under new management and they threw a huge party complete with a grazing table and lots of beverages. My cousin made an appointment for 3 of us and we were placed in one of the private rooms. We were immediately offered the drink menu so while we waited we were able to sip and snack. When they took us to the private room, they gave us a menu book with all the different services they offer. Pedicures started at $44 and goes up depending on additional add ons. Our private room had a TV so my cousin logged into her Netflix account and we got caught up with the new XO, Kitty episodes. I had initially suggested getting caught up with Bridgerton but grateful for the girls with me to remind me of the spicy scenes. That would have made for a very awkward time lol. For my manicure, I got the no chip chrome and I love it! It was nice that we didn't have to get up from our pedicure massage chairs and they were able to do my manicure right there. For the event, they were also offering a 30% discount for all services so for my mani/pedi combo, it came out to $71. I also found out for future reference that if you pay cash, there is a 5% discount. Overall, this was such a cute and fun place. It's the same owner as the one in Burr Ridge and I've heard so many good things about that location. Upon checking out, we were gifted with a goody bag from the event which contained a purse holder, cuticle oil and hand lotion. Would definitely come back and look forward to trying the rest of the drink menu offerings. read more

Went today to try this new place, but I was not happy at all. I really wanted to like it but the service was not good or maybe she's new I don't know.

I went during the new management/grand reopening party. It was easy to make an appointment (can call or do it online) and everyone was so nice at the salon. I love that they have a drink menu thats more than just water and juice. I got a mango mojito and a cafe latte which were both good. My friends and I were seated in a private area where we were able to catch up on netflix shows. I opted for the milk and honey pedicure and a catseye no chip manicure. Renni did them both and she did it with the upmost care! Highly recommend this place if youre looking to be treated like royalty and want a quality manicure/pedicure. read more

I am OBSESSED with my nails from COCO Nail Bar! My technician Lyn is an absolute gem -- she took a full hour with me and was meticulous with every single detail, making sure each nail was perfectly even and shaped beautifully. The turquoise French tip she created is stunning, with the prettiest almond shape -- exactly what I envisioned and then some! Lyn's patience and skill really show in the final result; you can tell she takes real pride in her work. They even offered beverages during my appointment -- I had a delicious Vietnamese coffee, which made the whole experience feel even more relaxing and special. I left feeling so pampered and happy with my nails. I will absolutely be back and requesting Lyn every time -- if you want a technician who truly cares about getting it right, she's the one to ask for! read more

Dont come here unless you want overpriced nails that look like dollar store press ons.

I really wanted to try this salon since my nail tech left and I don't know where Angel went. It's sounds like you are very rushed. Since I don't like having my nails done, this doesn't sound like a very relaxing salon. I hope you get better reviews in the future. read more

I have made this my "home away from home" nail salon. I happened upon Coco Nail bar while staying in Downers Grove for an extended period of time amd quickly fell in love with it. The salon is impeccably clean. Each time I visit I am impressed by the level of professionalism, creativity, and innovative services. I was there today for their new management party. Grace gave the perfect pedicure while both managent and other staff members made sure all were welcomed, offering all a custom drink menu, as well as,a fruit and pastry bar. I look forward to returning soon! read more

Not a great experience. The front desk person didn't even look up to greet me-he just pointed at the iPad to sign in. I should've taken that as a sign and left. The nail technician actually complained about having to do my nails, which was uncomfortable. The manicure chipped after just two days. With so many nail salons in the area, you think they'd care more about customer service and quality.Sad. read more

I would come back and get more services next time I'm here. read more

Have gone here 3 times now for russian manicure gel and pedicure. Best longevity I have had from a nail salon! I used to be a nail tech, and it is difficult to find someone that does well enough to justify the expense. Would highly recommend! read more

The place was nice and very tentative to me. The person doing my pedicure had a timer to make sure they didn't go over on my massage. Not relaxing at all knowing that it's timed. I also don't like that on a basic pedicure they don't shave your feet. They said I would have to upgrade, which is expensive. read more

I love coming here! At this point, I've come here several times and each time I find that I have a great experience. My nails look great and the people are kind and thorough. My favorites are Nancy for No chip manicures and Jon for pedicures. I also love the vibe! It's very high class and quality - even the bathrooms are nice! It's a great place & I'm glad I found it! Thank you again Nancy and Jon for a wonderful experience! read more

I got the Citrus Paradise Deluxe Pedicure and Express Manicure. The Pedicure was fine - but the setting a timer to make sure I got the 10 minute massage with zero pressure was not ok to me. Add to the fact that the technician only did the top of my legs and not the full leg (The back of my legs were not touched) felt rushed and only meeting the standard. The express Manicure comes with Shaping, cuticle care, massage, hot towels, finish with polish. I only received the Shaping, Cuticle care and polish. No massage or hot towels and the technician did make me bleed a couple of times. I did tip the technician since I do believe a service was done but I will not be back since I didn't receive the full service and felt like I was made to pay for something I did not receive. read more

I am so disappointed with my last visit to this salon. I came in for a deluxe pedicure like I normally do, but the lady I got this time did such a sloppy job on my nails. It felt like she was hurrying through it all just to get her money and on to the next customer. A few of my nails were cut crooked and super short down to the skin. She cut the toes on one foot shorter than the other foot, and the nail polish just looks sloppy and not professional at all. I told the lady at the register about my nails being cut not straight, that it looked crooked, and she said the other lady will fix it, but she barely did. This is how it looked when I got home. They did not offer any discount or money back either, after doing such a horrible job. That is beyond me. I will not be coming back. read more

I've been on the fence with this review for a couple weeks.... Quality is inconsistent. If you book online they literally will give you the newest person employed...or at least that's how it feels. I got a pedicure for the first time in six months a couple weeks back. The man never cleaned or shaped my toe nails. I have an ingrown nail for months, it's always been addressed in the past, completely skipped altogether. This should have been my sign that this pedicure was going to be awful. I asked for callus remover, and it was as if he was afraid to do the service (I'm a bartender I have some rough heels). My heels were not smooth, but jagged to the point they snagged on my socks. I did a simple French design for my toes. The lines were not matching up and he was offended when I asked for them to be even (my left foot was perfect with a thin line but my right foot was thick). Not one manager came by to ask what was going on, offer help or advice. When I used a promotion that they had emailed the man seemed put off that I asked for them to honor their promotion. This last experience put such a sour taste in my mouth after two years of being a customer. I felt ignored, unheard and like a burden. The most stressful and uncomfortable experience of my life. This was beyond disappointing because I was trying to treat myself after a couple stressful weeks. I paid and left as quickly as possible. When I got home and finally truly inspected my toes, there was so much flooding from the polish in my nail beds. The whole for the French wasn't painted on my full toe nail. I have a straight up corner or my toe that was never painted. What was supposed to be fun and soothing was stressful and disappointing. read more

I've been going to this salon for a year now. My original technician moved out of state, but I now see Joyce and Dan to get my gel manicures. The pedicures are great here too. I love booking online. I highly recommend this location! read more

Esthetically pleasing. Soooo pretty inside i had high hopes. Went with 3 friends. We had an appointment. 1. We were rushed to pick colors. 2. Two of the girls got their pedi done by the same tech WHICH IS NOT THE PROBLEM. The problem is that this tech did both pedis in the time I got my one pedi done. They were mega rushed and she was so rough on them. And the SHAPEEEE lol my god I'm posting the pic on that pedi.. When this tech was told one of the girls needed a mani she legit scoffed and rolled her eyes hard as hell. Just say no, pass her off to someone else.. I don't know, explore your options. Figure it out though there's no reason for that. If you don't like your job that's personal. We're there to get a pedi and have a relaxing experience. 3. One of the girls got an acrylic full set and her nails were burning from the acrylic. When she asked why they were burning she was told it's because she's got sensitive skin/nails. (We all get acrylics regularly this has never happened) minutes later the tech put cuticle oil on her hand and said "I just burned myself too". My friends nails were still burning about an hour later. I'll post them below it's the red nails with the mess around the cuticles. 3. I get that there are add ons but PLEASE ADVISE what incurs a higher price. No one was told anything was a higher price until check out. Then there was a big list. All of this I think boils down to being too busy. We all had appointments but were rushed through the whole process and felt unwelcomed. My tech that did my pedi was gentle and amazing wish I would have got her name. She is an Angel oh we did get free cuticle oil though. read more

I came to this location after trying their Sista location in South Elgin. Upon my first visit here they were very rude and rushy. However the service to my nails for my dip manicure was good. My second visit to this location I requested both Dip Medicare and pedicure. The service for my pedicure was amazing. The tech was very engaging. We had a good report and understanding. The man that did my dip manicure, however, was not very customer friendly. Both prior technicians who service me for my dip manicure only use the drill to remove the protective coating from my nails, so that way my nails grow and create a healthier nail. I requested this man to not use a drill on my natural nail. I was ignored. He nicked my nail, causing it to break. When this was addressed to him, he ignored and said it's OK after completing this service I went home Went to bed the next day my nail was broke. I called to have the service overall redone as the coding. The man put was very thin compared to the two other times only the one broken nail was fixed. Two days later other nails cracked, and now I am less than one week needing to get a whole new set. I will not be returning. My original return should have been addressed and my request should have been granted to prevent additional trips. read more

I've been here 3 times & I've had a great experience everything! I've now referred this nail salon to my friends & family!

Horrible service and apparently, math is different where they're from. Did you know that 15% off of $70 is $5? And when you inform them that they incorrectly applied their text promotion, they become defensive, yell, and fabricate stories to place blame on the customer. I show them the text with their 15% off "entire service" offer and do the math in front of her, and then she tries to claim it only applies to pedicures. On social media, I addressed the matter since the employee became belligerent in store, and I was told I'd get 15% off my next service for the inconvenience. I wanted to give them another chance, but when it came time to book my next mani/pedi, I was told they wouldn't honor the promised discount even though I had their offer in writing on text and social media. These people don't know how to conduct business and don't honor their word, not to mention, the environment is far from serene because they won't shut up. read more

Magic nails on Butterfield in oak brook did me horribly 2 times in a row. So I decided to try a new place on butterfield. Coco nail bar being the place. I got an acrylic full set with Christine and she was so welcoming and understood what I wanted. I went back today to do a gel x with her and she did a great job! She explained the process with me. Very welcoming and has a relaxing vibe to it! They also send 20% off coupons! My 60 dollar gel x was only 48 after the discount! read more

Don't. Just don't. If you complain they call the police. I saw them treat a customer so wrong because she was wanted the owners contact information. The police were nice so there was no arrest but wow! I couldn't wait to get out of there. I'll never go back there! She asked for the owner's information and was treated like she stole something! Beware! I hope she stands up for herself! They were wrong! read more

I went here despite the negative reviews because I believe every business can have a bad day or what not, but this was just...bad. I only wanted a pedicure, but a more deluxe pedicure so I sprang for the milk and honey pedicure. The person they paired me with IMMEDIATELY assumed an upcharge on top of that and bought me the no chip colors. I tried to explain to her that I have a nail condition where no chip nail polish doesn't stay (long ridgeline nails) and that it is pointless so I just wanted regular polish and she was not having it. I had to repeat it about 4 times to get it through to her. After that she kept on pointing out "flaws" I had like my toe nails were so short (I have to keep them short because I have a breakage problem) and kept trying to upcharge me for more experiences. Then the true nail in the coffin hit...she sneezed directly onto my foot. No apologizes and just continued on. I was insanely grossed out. During the "callus removal" section she didn't even bother checking my full foot for calluses, just the ball of my foot. The lotion they used and or the water line absolutely stunk as well. I wish this places vibe would've been like a saving grace since it's very classy on the inside, but it didn't save the service sadly. I didn't complain to the manager because based on reviews from this page, she would've called the cops due to constructive criticism. I cannot recommend this place at all. Listen to the reviews and just go elsewhere! read more

I really wanted to have a great experience here, but I left last night feeling disappointed. The inside of this business is beautiful and elegant looking. I was so excited. I paid $68 for nails that were mediocre and look like they were a week old already. My cuticles weren't trimmed or pushed back and the no chip and the full set didn't even completely cover my nails on some fingers. Some of the nails even looked like they were taking off from my finger. This is the first time I've had my nails done in over a year and I wanted to treat myself after having a baby to something a little nicer and splurge but I'm pretty sad about my experience. I came with my sisters for a treat and left feeling taken advantage of. My sister mentioned my dissatisfaction to the person at the desk as we were paying but he only fixed the nail where the polish wasn't cured properly. read more
