J J Nails is now Finy's Nails. Seemed to be sold to an Asian family a few years ago. I had Joy on a Saturday before closing time and i didnt realized that a gel manicure would take that long. She did remove old gel polish and snipped and shaped here and there. Then came to the types and colors. I chose a glitter silver for 2fingers and chrome silver for the 3. Running out of time, somehow i got silver gel and not chrome. Chrome has a different process. I didnt insist to get that even though i was willing to pay a little more (it is) for this finish. I have had chrome finishes a few times at other nail salons. The curing lamp was burning hot and a few times i had to remove my fingers. Joy was a nice young woman and works Saturdays only. The dude owner has his mom do pedicures during my time there. The set up is neater and spacious now compared to when it was J J's. He didnt add the 3percent to my charge card so i wonder if this is their norm for now. read more

I had a Quantum-Reiki session with Asana. She is a very good energy healer. I felt so much better after the session. I will definitely be going back for more sessions. read more

I love this place. I drive from Crystal Lake because it's the best nail salon I've ever been to. I refuse to get my nails done anywhere else. Sophea the owner is wonderful. She is very kind and accommodating. She's also extremely talented. As is her staff. Being a single male walking into a nail salon can be a little intimidating. I felt so at ease and welcomed from the moment I walked into JJ's. I still feel that after going here for a couple years now. I couldn't recommend this place enough. Please do yourself a favor and go visit. Thank you Sophea! read more

I just moved to the area and am looking for a regular place. I came here based on the reviews only to find out they're under new management as of just a few weeks ago. The staff was friendly and the nails were fine. read more

I decided to try JJ's because it was near my work. I went twice. My most recent mani/pedi was terrible. I am so sorry to say, but it was the worst one I ever had. The positive is the new owner is wonderful and very friendly. He just hired a new girl. This was her first week and she had no clue what to do. I asked her how long she has been doing nails and she said she does them out of her home. I asked what school she went to and she said she received a certificate. The pedi started off with her forgetting to put the dividers between my toes (she apologized), she used the cuticle nipper to cut my toenails not a nail clipper, she did not clip my fingernail cuticles, and she never gave me a hand massage with lotion. My mani/pedi almost took 2 hours. Yes, I should of said something right away, but I didn't. I did still tip. It has been bothering me, that's why I decided to write the review. read more

Called to schedule two pedicures and they fit me in within the hour! Both workers were very kind, caring, and accommodating. Made us feel like family! It was a great calming atmosphere with relaxing massage chairs and considerate workers. read more

I have been going to JJ's for 6 years now. Sophia the owner is a lovely woman and has a gift for working with ingrown nails. She's like a surgeon when digging them out. I love my pedicures and how she cares for my feet! Her salon is relaxing with low lights and soft music. She offers a variety of nail services. Also, provides waxing and permanent makeup. Asana provides Reiki for stress, anxiety, and more. I feel great after a session with her! read more

This place is a hidden gem! Great service and prices. Owner and her staff are very friendly.

This might have been a good salon at one point. It has 4 manicure stations, 5 pedicure stations, three massage rooms - all empty now. Now, the facility is dark and worn. The only tech working there now is the owner who complains a lot about how COVID killed her business. Pedicure was brief and not well done- nails were clipped before they were soaked, no chip light cord was taped to box and didn't stay on longer than 10 seconds, paint job done poorly. I don't think it was just COVID-the shop needs a total overhaul and the owner needs to work on attitude and skill. read more

The owner was extremely nice, but unfortunately that's about the only positive. I went with two other people to get dip and no chip manicures. All of our nails have imperfections, bumps, etc. I got the dip. The no chip services took 30 mins, my dip took 2 hours and I am not exaggerating. When they said it was done, it looked terrible and streaky. They had to put no chip over it to fix it and it's already peeling a couple days later. The techs were asking each other how to do things and constantly checking each other's mistakes. I would never come back. It also cost more than I pay downtown for the same service. read more

Took two hours and 30min for a full set which is absolutely insane. My nails are so thick and lengths are uneven between both hands. Will not be returning. Waste of $75. read more

A relaxing (in the absence of chatty clients) and interesting place where a Hello Kitty pedicure "throne" sits in the back of the store. Pleasant multi-racial place of employees and they give their upmost care and attention to each client. I go for the deluxe package because my legs need some massage work besides pedicure. There are 2 different types of filing off dead feet skin so ask for the metal one, otherwise the pumice stone file is used which does not do much for my heels. I have not tried their other services but I am sure they are just as good or better as others out there. One star short of 5 represents continued room for improvement. read more

My friend and I called last minute and they told us to come on in for two full sets of acrylics. This was my first time there. They had started my nails 20-30 mins before my friends, yet somehow I finished last anyways. I don't mind waiting for a set of some good acrylics, yet they were very thick and uneven. My nail tech didn't talk to me at all, yet the nail tech was very bubbly and friendly. The acrylics came out to $70, which is pretty pricey considering they weren't the best I've seen. I tipped $20 (29% tip) because I was thankful for the last minute fit. However, I had gotten my nails done Wednesday and the by the following Saturday, ALL 10 of my nails popped off. I have a tendency to CRACK nails, but these straight up came off in one piece. My glue ons last longer than these $70 acrylics. These are by far the worst acrylics I have ever gotten, and they were pretty pricey considering they didn't last nor look nice. I never write reviews but after 5/10 nails of my came off, I figured it would be a waste of my time to go back and get it fixed. It wasn't just one nail, but all 10. read more

Zero stars. Awful customer service. Made an appointment for 3 people (2 plus child) for 12:45. Show up on a Sunday with 1 person working. We all sit and she starts my daughters pedicure while we sit in cold water. She finished my daughter And turned to start me and I ask if someone else is coming to do my mother's nails. She said "oh she's at church" I said " ok when will she be here?" She did not have an exact answer nor did she think it was a big deal that we were already sitting there waiting for almost 45 minutes. So we immediately left. Thank goodness we were just going for a casual nail day not to celebrate anything or we would have been even more upset than we already were. Just don't want anyone else to waste their time if you don't have PLENTY of time to spare waiting for your nails to get done. Also $25 to paint my 6 year old daughters nails. Ridiculous read more

Love everyone there and the environment! Recently the owner Sophia renovated the place with fresh new paint and curtains for dividers. I never leave disappointed, everyone there does such an amazing job! Its my go place for my no chip and pedis! read more

I'm not one for writing reviews but I felt the need to express my gratuity to the salon! I called and made an appointment for a pedicure and acrylic full set and let me tell you Sophia did AMAZING. I was not only so impressed with my nails but I was very impressed with how clean and organized things were during COVID. I love that they only take one appointment an hour so there aren't too many people in the salon at once and everyone is wearing masks. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Excellent service with professional attention. The owner really cares about her business and customer satisfaction. Highly recommend. Make an appointment read more

Went here for the first time and had an awkward experience. Even though I had made an appointment they seemed unprepared. One of the ladies directed a young man to do my mani/pedi, and he did not seem happy about it judging by their heated exchange. Just a little awkward. He also abruptly left in the middle of my manicure without saying anything. Another woman stopped working on her client and came over to finish my nails. Kinda strange. Other than that weirdness my nails turned out great! The no-chip lasted 3-3.5 weeks. read more

I had been here once before to get acrylics taken after my wedding and decided to give it a real shot. I often do my own manicures but it was a treat yo self sorta day! So happy I did. I arrived promptly around 10am for a manicure, no appointment. I was asked to wait which I was happy to do since I showed up with an appointment. They did an absolutely wonderful job! They made sure I was happy with how my nails were shaped and the length before she polished them. She was so attentive to my cuticles and didn't nick me once. The polish was perfect, completely dry upon leaving. I will certainly be returning here. I've had my share of poor manicures and am happy to have found a wonderful little spot so close to home. read more

I have been going to J & J nails for a couple years since I moved to the area. The last couple times I have felt rushed. I recieved a no chop manicure and polish change on my toes and it was $50. I think the price is outrageous. read more

I'm so glad to have a great nail salon so close. They have lots of pedicure chairs including a hello kitty chair for kids. The prices and service are great. read more

Great staff, clean facility, affordable prices, quality work. Couldn't ask for more!

I have been going to jjs for 8 years now and it is the only nail salon I will go to. Sofia and all the employees are always so nice to me. This is the only nail salon where my no chip really doesn't chip, it lasts about a month until i have to get them redone just because my nails grow out. Other places that have done no chip never last half as long. I always look forward to going to jjs read more

I read all the 5 star reviews and decided to give this place a try. They said I could have a 1p appt. Finally got in the chair at 1:30. People's cell phones were ringing, techs kept switching from one person to another and in the end I had an ok pedicure and a bubbled up manicure. I have never felt so rushed all while having a mani pedi that finished just past 3p. If it was solid pampering for 2 hours, I would have given a much different review. Instead, everyone was running around like crazy. They said they were understaffed. I get that. But if that is the case, don't make so many appointments at one time. The price is great at $35 but I would have rather paid $45 and had it feel like a mini vacation than an inconvenience to the techs who needed to get to the next client. The last time my tech was switched out - on my last coat of nail polish - I asked why and the new tech responded, "oh, if she leaves you she can go make more money." Nice. Thanks. To those of you that have 5 stars, I hope you do get the 5 star service you deserve. Hopefully you don't think this is the way other nail places work bc they do not. read more

Love getting my nails done by So! She's amazing at her craft and I especially love that she takes her time! So really makes her clients feel like a priority!! I always feel like a million bucks after seeing her! read more

I was at JJ Nails for the first time today and it was wonderful! Susan was friendly and the service was great. My pedi looks perfect and I really enjoyed massage chair and dimmed lighting in pedi area with the zen music in background. I will definately go back! read more

This is the only place I come for my nails now ask for Rebecca she gives an amazing pedicure it doesn't feel rushed I would recommend this place to anyone they give amazing service read more

Not quite the experience I was hoping for. The employees are cordial. The service was priced right, but the salon is not as professional as I hoped. The area is small, which is fine, but the pedicure area was not the greatest -- lighting was bad and employees use the area as their lounge. I appreciate their willingness to do my pedicure without an appointment but will look elsewhere for a salon experience. read more

I love this place! I live out of the area but I make it a point to stop by when I can or need my nails done. Very clean and professional. They are also as accommodating if your ever on a time crunch! But they never leave out the pampering which I love! They make sure you know how to use their amazing chairs which a nice detail I thought read more

Great customer service! I came here based on their reviews and I am more than happy! Definitely will be coming back and my no chip mani looks great!! read more

Thought I'd try this place from a friends recommendation. Got in no problem, which is nice. Gal on the phone was nice and spoke english. Got in, place seemed a little small. I am on the shorter side and had to sit on the end of my chair the whole time. I clearly looked uncomfortable and my back was killing me. I would have thought someone would have offered to help but the guy doing my nails was too busy looking around, whispering and touching others as they walked by. Not real professional and made me uncomfortable. If he stood still, he wouldnt have nipped my toe. I wouldn't and won't return. 3 stars because I do like my color though he couldn't accommodate something fun or patriotic. read more

The best place to get your hair done! They specialize in ingrown toe nails and the love, care and time they put into their clients is unsurpassed! read more

Friendly staff and good prices on mani/pedi. I'll be a regular....

WHY I LOVE JJ'S! I have been to many nail salons with few positive and many negative experiences. However, there are so many reasons I ALWAYS CHOOSE JJs: -The staff is so accommodating, and Sophia has an incredible intuitive sense of what the client needs. She is constantly sharing this wisdom and teaching all the staff members. As a lifetime nailbiter, she is the only person who has helped through many phases of getting me to grow my nails to be strong and healthy. -The choices of products are the latest and greatest--so many color choices for no-chip, manicures, pedicures, and even the opportunity for gel and tips. - I can get a pedicure and a massage at the same time! The pedi chairs are awesome--they do a full massage while my feet are being pampered! The staff also gives warm oil massage on my legs. The oil feels so much better than just lotion--and the smoothness lasts a lot longer! -I tend to smudge my polish or break my nails often. They will always fix them without hesitation. Their overall goal is customer satisfaction. If you've never been here--GO! If you've had a negative experience due to some of their growing pains as a business--GO BACK! They will be sure you have a great experience! read more

So happy to have this new nail salon in the neighborhood. Super clean, friendly and talented staff. Eyebrow threading on Monday's too! Great new place!!! read more

We have now been going here for over a year and I am still extremely impressed with the service here. It is always extremely clean and the the staff is amazing. Couldn't be happier! read more

Go elsewhere. Please don't waste your time or money. Pedicure: What a waste! I do a better job in the shower with a pumice rock. Manicure: Cuticles weren't pushed back or trimmed properly. Worst of all, the nail tech didn't apply the nail polish evenly to cover the entire nail. Very disappointed. Came home to remove the nail polish and redo myself! Frustrating, to say the least!!! read more

Visited this place a few times in the past couple of years with my two daughters and yesterday for Mother's Day we made another and our final trip there. Never EVER EVER again!!! The towels used on us should not to be even be called towels any more?!!! Dirt rags I wouldn't use for floor cleaning let alone on paying clients?!!! Just plain NASTY!!! The HOT towel treatment was actually a WET FREEZING COLD towel?!! Seriously?!! I set up an appointment 3 hrs prior to service, there were 2 other clients there and they had no HOT towels?!...The horrible service does not even end there! One of my daughters ended up with a bloody (open cut look a like) nail file burn on her toes!!! They filled her nails so so hard that the tips of her toes have open cuts from file burns- and she did say it on more than one occasion that it hurts and pulled her foot away...My pedicure was super smeared, uneven, white lines on french pedicure style were random from nail to nail. My daughters pedicure was all over their toes not just nails and it was not cleaned up at all. Matter of fact one of the ladies stepped on her toe while doing a manicure, smeared her toe nail polish, said she would fix it and never did afterward. They didn't do the colors my daughter requested and instead chose the color for her even though she was clear what she wanted...Technicians kept changing on us and other customers every 5 minutes, not washing hands or even switching the gloves in between...They were all looking at the door and who came/walked in than what they were looking at what they were actually doing. Regardless of their price I WILL NEVER walk in there again and will spend time praying neither one of us got some fungus or something else while there read more
