This is a clean, well maintained salon. The practitioners are not only professional, they bend over backwards to make your experience relaxing and delightful. My daughter-in-law was visiting from Charleston, S.C. and she was very impressed. read more

Nomi did a terrific job - my hands and feet feel great, and the polish is perfect. Extra "star" for very nice hand and foot massages. This was my first visit, but I'll be back soon! read more

Popped in here after work without an appointment on a weekday and they were able to assist me right away for gel manicure. My experience has been consistently decent over here. The technicians can't do tricky, creative nail art but you can expect a high quality basic gel manicure. The salon is quite spacious and clean. Sometimes I find they lack wide array of polish colors/types though. Overall service is satisfactory for the reasonable price of $50 for gel manicure compared to the other salons in the area which also includes a quick shoulder massage and hand masks application. PS. They accept tips only in cash. read more

Cuticle is the best, hands down. Quality service, perfect vibe, and the owner and staff are soooo warm and friendly. I live in Lakeshore East and adore Gina, the owner, and Lisa, the amazing professional who does my eye waxing and chair massage (her hands are magic ). The salon is peaceful, relaxing, and calming. And the prices are right in line for any type of service in Chicago. I'm taking my 20-year-old niece for multiple services this afternoon and I also bought my 40-year-old boyfriend a 15min chair massage gift certificate to use some night after work :) I would highly recommend Cuticle to family and friends. read more

Very professional! They have all the best OPI gel colors! They had these hydration gloves to wear while getting your nails done that block the uv light and moisturize your hands! Anu was great! read more

Pedi and no chip mani service were great! 1 hour, super quick, great quality, nice, clean and quiet in the salon. 10/10 would recommend. Cash tips only fyi so bring some to tip your tech bc they are great! read more

I would go back for pedicure, but not manicure. They cut my nails too short and unevenly. My ring finger nail is longer than my middle nail because they cut the middle nail to the stub. But the pedicure was nice and I might go back, but nothing to praise home about. read more

Wonderful little nail shop! BUT SHE DIDNT DO WHAT I asked her to do. I came in for French tips. Not pink sparkles. I could of done that at home by myself. I can't do French tips at home so that's the service I came in for so I'm a little upset. When she brought out the sparkles I thought she was going to add it on top of my French tips but that wasn't the case so bad communication there. But the establishment is VERY CLEAN and helpful. Would definitely recommend it but be very clear with what you want :) read more

Came in at 6:40 after work and was able to get right in for a non chip pedicure. Peaceful salon, clean & bright and airy! Highly recommend for a pedicure! read more

They're clean, efficient, and effective! Was a little sad they did not do designs, but the gel polish was very cute and I combined two coats. My nail beds look smooth and they haven't had any cracks or breaks at all. Super reliable read more

I just paid $40 for a pedicure & did not want nail polish. Usually they over massage your legs in a pedicure & hardly touch your feet... well I didn't receive a massage for either. She also put one very hot towel over my feet and then walked away immediately without asking about the temperature. So I paid $40 for the basics. read more

I am thrilled that this wonderful salon is in the neighborhood. It's cleanliness, peacefulness and friendly staff set it a part. One of the first things I noticed was that they had relaxing music and no TVs blaring. The other clients were quiet and respectful which made for a relaxing experience. All the employees were wearing masks and they had plastic dividers throughout. Also they have a HUGE color section. It's a little overwhelming but it's very organized so I was able to fairly quickly pick out what I was looking for. Unlike other salons I never was pressured to get a gel manicure which I really appreciated. Can't wait to go back! I highly recommend making a reservation rather than trying to do a walk in. read more

This has been a LONG overdue review from yours truly. I have lived in the Lakeshore East neighborhood for the last 4 years and my manicures from Cuticle have always been consistently spectacular. I've attached just a few pictures of my natural nails with their no chip. (Seriously, they last 3 weeks) No matter what technician you get, she will do an excellent job. Each goes through an extensive process from the owner in order to provide services. No chip includes these moisturizing gloves that protect your hands from the UV, Kiehl's lotion, and a back massage. Pedicures are a dream - you have an option of picking green tea or lavender. They sanitize everything and you never feel the *cringe* of some other nail places (who obvi are not going to be named here). The owner always has calming classical music / instrumental covers that make you feel at ease. The place is huge and there is no gross acetone smell. Yeah, the prices are a TAD high, but the service is outstanding. Ugh guys just go here to get your nails done. Every time I *try* to go elsewhere, I cuss at myself cause I just wasted my time and money for a subpar job. read more

Have been here several times for pedicures and they always do a great job! I even took my partner for his first ever pedicure and it was a success! On one occasion, I realized a couple of nails were sharp before I left, and they had no problem fixing it. Everything is extremely clean and well run! It's now my go-to spot. read more

I have lived right next door to Cuticle for the past 3 years and just recently decided to give it a shot, and I'm really glad I did. I called ahead and was able to get in the same day (it was a Tuesday) for a SPA Pedicure and No-Chip Manicure. For starters, the salon itself is sparkling clean, and I saw the staff rigorously cleaning the entire time. The staff are super polite, friendly and efficient. They're focused all the time on your service and constantly ask if you need anything or if you're okay with the service. The place is also super COVID cautious as the minute you walk in, you are asked to sanitize your hands and your temperature is checked. Masks are also worn by staff and customers. They offer plenty of nail and wax services and I'm excited to try all of them, specially that they have a huge variety of colors to choose from. Great experience! My nails are beautiful and we're on week 2 of no-chip! read more

Cuticle is the best nail salon in the city. Whether you get a mani or a pedi you get a hand/leg and back massage. I generally get no-chip and I love it because it comes with a hand mask. Also, love it because my nails stay pretty for a longer period of time. Gina, the business owner, is professional and has done a fabulous job with her establishment. Check out cuticle. I guarantee once you do you won't get your nails done anywhere else. read more

This is a bright and airy place, just off the dog park and next to the popular Eggy's restaurant. They have a huge selection of polish choices, including my favorite OPI long lasting (with the silver top). Staff was efficient and polite, and my nails were perfectly polished and trimmed. I love that they use Kiehl's for their lotion too! Totally recommend, and would suggest you make an appointment on a Saturday because they get busy. read more

The BEST pedicure I've had in a long time. After having my temperature checked and given hand sanitizer, I was brought over to a comfortable chair and given the option to choose between lavender and green tea moisturizer for the water jet soak. My feet and calves where then gently scrubbed and massaged. My experience was very attentive, soothing, and I loved the nail polish I picked even more after application! You also get a nice back massage while your feet dry which was unexpected and quite delightful! Can't wait to come back! read more

I went there today and was in a rush to just get my nails done. So I really didn't pay much attention to it. I thought the one doing my pedicure was super gentle and I was thrilled that she was. Buttttt.. after my long day and a warm bath, as I was inspecting my $40 pedicure and I'm super disappointed. As you can see in the photos, it looks so messy and just really not done properly. The coats were not even. I did like the owner very much. She saw me inspecting my manicure after the topcoat was done and it seemed like too much top coat so she had it fixed. My manicure came out better but my toes are just horrific read more

A good experience and everything met my expectations. I called ahead (just 30 min on a Tues) and was able to walk right in. The location is tucked in across from a park - an unexpected great view! It was relaxing, clean, peaceful. Not showy or salesy. For a regular pedicure and no polish manicure = $60. Wonderful!! read more

They were able to take us the day of, which was nice since I didn't have much flexibility. Everything was clean and the space was lovely. And our pedicures were top notch! read more

I always have the best experience here, I absolutey love the hand masks that they use and wherever I go around the city, the no chip only lasts couple of days, but this is the only plce that will last upto two weeks read more

Without question, my favorite nail salon in the city! I recently moved to a new neighborhood and I still come back here to get my nails done. It is so peaceful and relaxing, it feels more like a spa experience than just a manicure or pedicure. The view into Lakeshore East Park is so pretty and adds to the vibe. It's also SO clean and the staff is incredibly friendly. Can't recommend enough! read more

Let me just say, the salon is the "Best" salon I have ever been to and I've been many over the years. It is the cleanest by far, all of the employees are professional, their equipment is 1st class and the owner couldn't be more accommodating and friendly. If want a professional manicure/pedicure this is the place for you! read more

I love this nail salon. I used to come here every two weeks when I lived in the Lake Shore East Neighborhood. After moving to the Loop, it became a little inconvenient to walk that far. However, lately, after not having been there for five years, I visited them again. I love how clean it is and the classical music in the background. It creates a very relaxing atmosphere read more

Fairly large nail salon in downtown. They have 10 manicure stations, and 8 pedicure stations. The pedicure has two scent options: Lavender or Green Tea. The pedicure includes a soak, scrub, and lotion. I've had a few pedicures here, and each of them have last at least 6 weeks. They have a complimentary beverage stand with water, coffee, and sparking water. Appointments are required - so call ahead. Unfortunately, their prices are not listed in their store. So it can definitely be a sticker shock if you don't look online. read more

I was feeling low and decided it would be a good idea to treat myself to a mani pedi. I found this place online and was impressed by the reviews so I decided to check it out. The place is beautiful - super modern and clean! I felt like I was rushed though my mani pedi and didn't get to enjoy it - which is the main reason why I came. It wasn't even busy so I'm not sure why I was in and out. I asked the manicurist to do a clear coat and she told me, "I already buffed them, it is the same thing." I bit my tongue. If you're providing a service, simply do what is asked. Overall, I won't be coming back here. For $50, I don't think it is worth it. However, if you're in a rush, this might be the place for you. read more

My friends wanted pedicures and I decided that I wanted one too. We walked into this nice, clean, and quiet environment, and was greeted by the lady up front. She answered to our needs and offered a huge selection of colors next to her. We all got regular pedicure which is $38. There was no wait so we were seated immediately. My nail technician did an excellent job with care. My best part? The massage, I was ready to fall asleep. I had water jets and it stayed hot throughout the whole service. When I was seated to the dryer, I was ready to pay but she wasn't done! She also massaged my back, and it was really nice. I looked down and my feet looks great and feels nice. I was relaxed with my service, I would go here again whenever I'm in town! A little self-care never hurt anybody. read more

By far the best nail salon in chicago. Staff is always very sweet and helpful -- I have a different nail tech every time I go -- but it doesn't matter because they're all good! And that's very hard to find Always clean and calming experience. They're quick and efficient. They don't do chrome, acrylic, nail art or dip. Which I hope they will in the future! read more

I love this nail salon! It is very clean and everyone that works here is SO kind. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by someone who gives you a pump of hand sanitizer and takes your temperature. There are plenty of manicure stations and pedicure chairs to go around and they are all very, very clean. I have been going to this salon for about 3 years now and have never had a negative experience. My nails are always perfectly cleaned, shaped, and colored. They have OPI regular polish and gel as well as Essie regular and gel. Before your pedicure, you get to pick either Lavender or Eucalyptus as your water soak and lotion scent. The chairs have a back massager which enhances your relaxation, and the foot and leg massage is just an added plus. For manicure, as soon as your hands are ready to be shaped and polished, you'll put on these fingerless gloves with lotion inside so your hands feel super smooth afterwards. All-in-all, a wonderful experience always! read more

The owner is welcoming, even gives me hugs. The color selection is vast, at many levels and I've never had a bad job there.

Just came back to say I've probably been here about 10 times or so in the last year and I'm satisfied every time. Highly recommend! read more

This is my favorite salon on the planet! Always wonderful customer service and my nails are beautiful and so long- lasting. I touch them up with top coat every other day (that is a great tip from a friend of mine) and they last all week. No gel or dip! Lovely ladies all and they use wonderful products. You can sit and dry and look out at the lovely park. Highly recommend! read more
