I got a mani pedi with hot stone massage and I felt very relaxed. The leg massage was wonderful and the paraffin wax was a nice touch! Will be coming back. Thank you for the lovely service! read more

Great experience, got just what I came in for. The owners worked quickly and efficiently, and were friendly and welcoming. I did the spa pedicure and left feeling refreshed. read more

This was my first time going to Grace Nails for a manicure and pedicure. I will not be going back. She cut two of my cuticles so short that they bled. No apology. And the pedicure polish on both my big toes is wearing off after 1 day! I will not be going back. read more

Great people , and the owner is just so wonderful. They care and take the time to do the work well. You don't feel rushed. I get the no chip done and it stays on way past the recommended two weeks . read more

SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE! Horrible experience all around. Every single one of my nails is chunky and bumpy and when I confronted her about it she said that's just my nail, and I said it's never bumpy when i get them done anywhere else so I know it's not my nail. Also, one of my nails was broken and noticeably shorter than the rest and when i asked her to fix it, she said "no Ill just file, it's not that much shorter than the rest". As i was paying, the other lady asked me if i wanted to add a tip i said no and she said "oh okay, you wanna add $10" and i said no, but caved and gave $5 just out of courtesy and then she mumbled something under her voice angrily. Why would I tip $10 when the nails and service was horrible?! I shouldn't have tipped anything at all! read more

Grace Nails - Perfectly painted job and shape. - Nail Salons Near Me - Winnetka, Illinois

Worst manicure ever. Minimally cleaned my cuticles. Nail polish all over the place and I had to ask her, multiple times, to make sure my nail shape was even if each nail - the final time she filed my nail with the wet polish on. Save your money. Go somewhere else. read more

Grace Nails - Nails by Becky - Nail Salons Near Me - Winnetka, Illinois

I think the only 5 star reviews for this place must be regulars. I was able to get in for a last minute mani-pedi (mind you, it was a Tuesday afternoon around 1pm) and there were only 2 other customers in the salon. The pedicure started first with the technician soaking my feet, then buffing my heels, then a scrub on my legs. She never soaked off the old polish. Ok I thought, maybe this is how the do their services here. She then drained the tub, and walked away. Then a man came over to perform the leg massage. Ok, so this is the second person. He finished, and I waited. It was about 15 minutes before a nail technician (3rd person!) came over (who was obviously rushed) and took off the polish, cut the nails, but never filed or buffed the actual nail. She put cuticle remover on nail and let it drip all over my feet. Normally they would have you put them back in the water, but that had been drained 20 minutes prior. So she slapped on polish before I could even say anything. Manicure was after, and nothing to write home about. It was super basic and besides being sloppy and the polish being all over my skin, it chipped and peeled the next day. The pedicure which normally lasts me 2 weeks is already chipped on 3 nails after a week. The icing on the cake was at least I thought I was receiving their advertised special of mani-pedi $35 that they have posted on their window. That special doesn't include cuticles or massage (again, wasn't even asked when I got there which one I wanted), so I was charged $45 for a sloppy sad excuse for a nail job. Maybe they treat regulars better, but for the price there are much nicer salons in the area. 2 stars because the place seemed clean (although the buffing block and file had definitely been used prior). read more

I have been a regular for a few years now (taking a break during the pandemic) and always think Becky and her team do a phenomenal job. I have weak nails and I have found if I switch technicians or salons they tend to file off or scrape too much off off my nail and my nails become become brittle. Justin gives the best pedicures and massages. Highly recommend this spot in an area that has become saturated with nail salons. read more

This is the worst nail place I've ever been to by far. They were so judgmental and were constantly commenting on my skin and my nails. I've never felt more uncomfortable in any nail salon i've ever been to. The final product was cut completely wrong, and the nails looked worse than before. Never coming back here again. Ridiculously overpriced for the quality. Unbelievable. read more

My 4-year old daughter and I walked in on a rainy Sunday afternoon (late!) and she wanted a manicure... They took us right away although they had clients and did such a thorough job... They offer a punch card, kind conversation, and were so good with her... We both can't wait to go back! I'm sold! read more

Cannot say enough!! Amazing mani/pedis, incredible massages, great facials. I want to try it all here. And low cost!! read more

Grace Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Winnetka, Illinois

Really disappointed in my manicure from here. Inside does look nice with the exception of the nail polish area. Most of the polishes looked so old/dirty with paint dripped all over the outsides and the polishes themselves looked dried/cakey. Not a good first impression. The actual service: The technician was not very friendly and literally ripped the skin from my cuticles. I'm currently sporting band-aids on several fingers because of the cuts. After cutting me and seeing that i was bleeding, the tech didn't even apologize but instead made this annoyed face and just kept tearing up my hands. To top it all off, she got nail polish on the sides on my finger and missed spots on my nails (not even sure how that was possible). She was clearly trying to hurry. I'm not even sure if she used top coat. What is funny is this place was busy with what seemed like "regulars" so clearly there are people who like this place. I dont know if i just got a bad tech or what but i will definitely not be back. **there was also no free massage as the have posted on here as part of the mani service (or at least my tech did not do one).** read more

Love them! Rebecca is the new owner, who volunteered her time (on her day off) at the Hubbard Woods School PTO Teacher Appreciation Week to give the teachers FREE manicures! Their service...wonderful. They're the only ones I know of that give you - a movie, a coffee or tea, a hot neck roll, herb-infused waters for your pedi (you pick the scent), a hand massage, and neck massage - all included in the price. Their M-W deal of $35 can't be beat. No complaints on the polish either - it lasts just as long as the rest of them. read more

Grace Nails is an ideal name for this wonderful nail salon! Becky, the owner, is always so warm, gracious and personable; the salon itself is very clean and tastefully decorated which allows for a serene escape; they have a wide selection of products and do a great job; and, the pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend! read more

There are several points I would like to touch on that make this nail salon wonderful. I was looking for salons on my way home from work that were still open, and stumbled upon this one. I called to ask if they could squeeze in one more manicure 30 minutes before closing, and the owner (Becky) got me in no problem. I arrived expecting to feel hassled since I was so last minute, but Becky and her staff gave me as much time as I needed to pick a color, use the bathroom, etc. The color selection is pretty good. The price for a regular manicure was $15-something I could live with as a college student. There is a lot of competition in this area, so I was surprised that the prices were so reasonable. The salon was very clean, the staff was professional, and because the service was warm and friendly; I can now understand why they have so many regular clients. Becky did my nails, she cleaned them up very nicely and now they look great. I will definitely be coming back here in the future. Also-Lady, Becky's dog is adorable and does not bother the clients at all. Great experience overall. read more

Grace Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Winnetka, Illinois

Horrible experience! Will NEVER go back! There are so many nail salons in Winnetka, you would think the new owner would be at the top of her game. *We were there 2 hours for a pedi/shellac mani - technicians were VERY slow and sloppy. Some of my toes only have 3/4 polish on them. *The technician cut my skin instead of cuticle. It wouldn't stop bleeding, but she made light of it. *The pricing is confusing. The owner couldn't explain it in simple terms to us and got into the same discussion with the next customer who was also confused. *They do a poor job of managing appointments and walk-ins. *I don't think I would go back even if it was FREE! read more

Have been going to Grace Nails for 3 years! Becky & Justin are excellent people and run a great business! All technicians are trained and certified! They do beautiful mani/pedis and wonderful acupressure foot massage. They also have amazing chair massage and full body massage. Highly recommend!! read more

I am a HUGE fan of Grace Nails. New owners as of April 2013. Very serene environment. Excellent service. Very customer oriented. BEST VALUE in town. New owner Rebecca Lee strives to offer services that go above and beyond. Many organic herbal soaks used in the pedicure. Wonderful neck pillows relax my neck & shoulder muscles during the cold months. Lovely music. This place feels very intimate. A great place to get away for an hour or two. They offer waxing, and chair massage as well. The facilities are perfectly appointed to have a Girlfriend Getaway Party for a few of your friends. Perfect to pair this spa getaway with lunch at O'Neills next door. Grace nails offer enticing savings for multiple services. Best of all if you have a standing appointment , you can go in and get a nail repair if one chips at no extra charge. I highly recommend this salon. Best on the North Shore. They also allow walk-in appointments. read more

Grace Nails is amazing. The only place to go in Winnetka to have your nails done! The staff is so kind and friendly, the salon beautifully maintained and the service terrific. I have had both regular manicures and no-chip and they both last far longer than from any other salon I have tried. The pedicures are equally as good with a wonderful hot stone massage included. Definitely book your next appointment here! read more

The owners are great people and they and technicians always do a great job. I go regularly for mani/pedi (even though I don't live in winnetka) and highly recommend. read more

Becky and her staff are great! Have been going here for years, since they opened, and have always been extremely satisfied with the service, cleanliness and willingness to squeeze me in last minute. Reasonable prices, friendly staff, flat screen tvs and waxing services in addition to hot stone massages and organic products make this my favorite nail salon in Winnetka! read more

Grace nails is great, I've called for an appointment minutes before wanting to go and they have always fit me right in. The only time I had to wait I received a complementary massage. They have a great selection of polishes to choose from, including gel and vinylux. Always good movies to watch and they're super nice. M-W $35 mani-pedis. read more

Short summary: I absolutely love going to Grace Nails, this is THE place to go if you have an ingrown toenail, ask for Becky as she in fact specializes in helping get rid of in-growth so you can hopefully avoid surgery. Even if you don't have this issue, their service is great for an unbeatable price: for $35 you get a mani/pedi with very high quality products and polishes to choose from and a service that leaves your skin feeling exfoliated and smooth. I truly don't understand some of the negative reviews, especially given how friendly and accommodating the staff is! Details for in-grown nail treatment: The big toe on my right foot became ingrown a few years ago after it was damaged from being stepped on during a music festival, and it just became worse as time went on. I went to Grace Nails about a month ago for their mani/pedi special and Becky noticed the issue with the toenail and told me that she could help me. Naturally I was skeptical because any time I would try to cut it down it was horrible because the nail became thick and would bleed. I was at the point of seriously debating surgery for it because my mom just had hers fixed with surgery shortly before we went to Grace Nails; however, she warned me against the surgery route. Becky somehow managed to remove the excess that keeps the toenail raised and to cut it down so that it looks uniform with my other nails (which I couldn't ever do myself). After the pedi was over, I noticed that I had immediate relief from the pressure the nail was feeling from the problem. It has been just over a month since I went to Grace Nails for this issue and I have already noticed changes to my toenail after Becky did her magic. For one thing, the nail has flattened out noticeably where it is looking much more like a normal toenail. I also noticed that the nail itself has become thinner, just as a nail should be rather than the thick uncuttable mess I was dealing with. I was so pleased with the results that I went back today specifically looking for Becky and yet again she took care of my problem. I found out that many local ladies have found out about Becky's fantastic work with ingrown toenails and come back to her often and I am now one of those people. I have been so pleased with how things have been going that I hope other people with the same issue hoping to avoid surgery, or at least try something before resorting to it will try out coming here! read more

I've had two pedicures here and they did a great job. It's clean and they are friendly.

Lovely place! Kind and expert service! Excellent service at great price. Loved the high quality natural products. Besides an excellent mani-pedi I treated myself to a reflexology foot massage that had some noticeable health impacts soon after! Lady the dog who greets customers couldn't be sweeter. Owner Becky is a amazing woman. Highly recommend. I will be back regularly. read more

Very friendly and conveniently located. After 4 weeks my pedicure still looks great! Will absolutely be back.

Grace Nails is a great salon that's getting the shaft by Yelp. Perhaps we need to rate Yelp. You all realize that if businesses don't pay for advertisement, they only post bad reviews. I've given this business five stars before and so have others. They keep taking our reviews down. Doesn't that seem strange to anyone? read more

I've been going here for years, just for simple manicures and occasional pedicures. My nails always look great when they're finished and the staff is friendly. I've read the other reviews and have to say I haven't had the poor experiences described there. read more

I was thrilled that they are open until 7 on weekdays, and I could stop in on my way home from work. I did not feel the least bit rushed and it was careful, meticulous and well done. read more

I love the family that runs this shop,but they cannot say no to anyone. They overbook and their customers wait. The last time I was there, it was 2-1/2 hours for a mani/ pedi. I saw the poor husband massage a woman's legs for 25 minutes to kill time while he waited for his wife to catch up. I would have screamed! read more

I also had a bad experience here. The woman cut my skin instead of my cuticle. It would not stop bleeding and it hurt. In all of my years of getting mani/pedi done, this has never ever happened to me. read more

This shop is so underrated! The new owner Rebecca, she serve the best customer service. I was expecting it would have 5 star reviews!! They use the best quality products - most of them are organics. The prices are also very reasonable - Mon through Wends there is $35 specials and their pedicure is the absolute best. They serve stone massage and use natural herb for soak water. BEST. read more

Took my daughter for a birthday mani pedi and can definitely say we will not be going back to this place. No one so much as greeted or acknowledged us when we came in. The place had a strong, unpleasant chemical odor, even with the door wide open (which by the way made it cold inside because it was not warm out). My daughter selected a design from a basket up front by the nail polishes. There was no pricing posted as to what polishes or designs entailed an up charge, however, they said there would be an up charge for the polish she chose and for the design. We said fine but then they did a rush job on her nails. They might call it a mani pedi but it was effectively a polish change because all they did was file and polish her nails. The design looks nothing like the sample, despite the extra charge, and they didn't even manage to keep the polish off the surrounding skin. They did a bad job and overcharged us. The couple that owns the place was unfriendly, not so much as a hello or please or thank you, and they and the employees continually yelled to each other in another language. As I said, we will not be back. There are tons of better places to go in the area. read more

OMG grace nails is AMAZING!!!! Such good service! I come here every week, and it's just incredible! Becky is so nice !!!! Thank you so much I love this place!!!!! Amazing service!!! read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. That's how horrible my experience was at this "establishment," if you could call it that. My friend and I walked in for their advertised mani/pedi special. The first red flag was the owner said she didn't have time, then abruptly changed her mind. My friend and I were skeptical and asked if we should come back later and she assured us that she could take us without a problem. Ok fine. We began selecting our colors when the owner told my friend to hurry up and finish so she could start her manicure. Strike 1, but our bedraggled nails caused us to soldier on. The technician who was going to do my nails was finishing up another client, so I sat down and waited. 5 minutes (literally 5 minutes) later, my technician sat me down, and the owner had already finished my friend's manicure. Who has ever heard of a manicure that only takes 5 minutes?! Strike 2. When my technician didn't soak my nails, I realized that the special mani/pedi was really nothing more than a pedicure w/ a polish change; however, my nails were in disarray from moving furniture, so I didn't care. My technician was actually quite attentive in evening out my broken nails. After she buffed my nails, she massaged my hands with lotion and a hot towel and that's when everything went to hell in a hand basket. Unbeknownst to us, the manager decided to leave another woman soaking in the pedicure bowl while she did my friend's hands, then she left my friend to soak in the pedicure bowl while she finished the other woman's feet. Um, I have never seen anyone abandon another client midway thorough a pedicure in order to procure another client. It didn't even make sense to do that because we told her we would wait until she had time, but evidently she views spa treatments as a chop shop--the more hands to hack and saw at, the better. While my friend was soaking, she noticed that my technician was more attentive and she inquired why it seemed like I was receiving a more complete manicure. She replied (loudly) that my nails were so messy that it took more work, so that's why and that she should be happy she had less work done because that meant her nails were better than mine. This manager actually thought it was a good idea to attempt to appease a disgruntled customer by loudly insulting another one?! Not only that, she told my friend to just get over not having the lotion massage and hot towel because "it's no big deal." After about 5 minutes of bickering in this manner, my friend got up and said she didn't want the pedicure and was only paying for the polish change (which was a shoddy polish change at that). About 10 minutes later, my technician finished my hands and gestured toward the pedicure bowl. I explained to her that even though she did a good job on my hands, I would be leaving with the friend I came with because she was rightfully upset and I'd pay for the polish change as well. The manager heard and tried to argue with my friend again about the fiasco but the damage had been done and we left. Tip to the owner, how about instead of arguing with everyone who walks through the door (evident by yelp reviews), try not to loudly insult your customers and do piss poor work! Even a polish change requires more effort than simply taking the nail polish off and slapping some more on. If that's what we wanted, my friend and I could have done that while sitting on the couch at home. Also, don't advertise a mani/pedi special when what you mean is polish change/pedicure. Good grief. Never again. read more
