    Fungus from dip powder at Nail Lounge

    I have developed a nail fungus from dip powder after having my nails done at Nail Lounge several times. It looks terrible and the owner said it isn't fungus. I have had another opinion and it definitely IS fungus. Please beware. Either the two people who did my nails were not careful or the powder is contaminated. Beware. I have a huge problem now because of this business.

    Berry red no-chip manicure by Sarah, perfect for Fall 2015!

    Holy wow! My new favorite nail salon. The staff are amazingly helpful and kind, Sarah did my no-chip manicure and pedicure and she was gentle, efficient and asked me a lot of questions about my preferences. Not to mention she was super easy to talk to and sweet! The staff spoke more to their clients than each other, and I don't know about you but I like feeling like I can socialize with people while I'm relaxing opposed to feeling ignored ! The salon was very clean and organized and they had a wonderful color selection, the prices are very reasonable as well. If you're unsure just go, it's worth it!

    6 days after my no-chip :(

    This is 6 days after my no-chip :( I don't have a job or anything where I work a lot with my hands or anything! I am disappointed. It feels like it is just a thicker layer of regular polish than the actual no-chip polish feel

    If you ever want best service and great nails I guarantee you come here! This is the best place, honestly. My nails are amazing they did a great job, the people here are amazing. They have the best conversions and they sit and listen, laugh and joke. They provide you with what you need. My phone hit 2% and they gave me a charger. 10/10 I will definitely be coming back here!

    Very happy with my nails!

    I got my nails done today for engagement pictures. I had called in and made an appt. for 12:30. They got me in right away which I was very pleased with. I don't remember the guys name, but he did an incredible job with my nails! I am so happy with them! He made sure multiple times that I was okay and that I was liking the length, color, etc. as he was doing them. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend this nail salon.

    Beautiful No-Chip manicure by Sarah!

    Fabulous nail salon! This was my fourth visit and I have never been disappointed. I have never asked for anyone by name and have had visits with four different technicians. All of them were wonderful. All of the technicians work very much as a team in helping each other in an effort to expedite whatever services you are having. That being said, the visits never seem rushed and all of the technicians have been very accommodating, friendly and professional. Although I am hesitant to tell you how great they are because I want to be able to continue getting in at a moments notice, great work deserves praise! A+

    Very busy with Homecoming but well staffed so the wait was short. The staff was pleasant and friendly. The salon was clean and inviting.

    Not only did they hold up well, this was by far the best no-chip manicure I've ever had.

    This is by far the best and most professional nail salon you will find in the Greater Rockford…read moreregion. How do I know? I have been to dozens over the years and found the service to be subpar and many of the nail techs unable to communicate well for one reason or another (language barrier, rude, etc.). I ended up with single color polish at these places and never a complicated designs...:( Often the quality was poor at other salons as well, unfortunately. Fortunately for me, I discovered Lavish Nail Bar. At LAVISH, I have been impressed for well over five years now. Most of the techs here that I have seen do gorgeous nails for everyone--and they make sure they are doing what you want along the way. They all speak English as a first language OR speak very fluent English to where you can have a full conversation (if you want) while you get your nails done. This place is clean and makes every customer wash their hands at the start of the appointment to limit the spread of germs. What a great idea! They definitely have a strong cleaning protocol, as this is a clean salon. Their vent system works good too, as I am sensitive to fumes and don't have problems here. This is not a salon that smells bad or strong like chemicals one bit. I always make appointments and get served right away. However, they do accept walk-ins. I see many walk-ins get serviced within a few minutes or right away. If it is a busy time of year or the weekend, this might not be true. I always go during the week in the afternoons and see almost everyone get in after a short wait or no wait. They are popular though so I would always suggest an appointment. The owner and his wife manage a PROFESSIONAL nail salon. They are such a great duo. Their employees all seem to have fun and are happy to be there. I have seen many of the same faces working there for years, and many, many repeat clients so they must be doing something right! If anyone one stars this place, they must have extremely unrealistic expectations and give every other nail salon in town negative stars b/c I don't see how it is possible to rate this salon anything but a 5 or a 4 (if you have any constructive criticisms to offer). However, they have been in operation for years now. They know what they are doing. The owner seems to know everyone by name as they walk in the door. I am so impressed. This is a very courteous, respectful salon that goes above and beyond to make their customers happy. How good is this place? I have had people recognize the owner's work on my nails. "Do you go to Lavish?" they ask me. I have had dozens and dozens of people ask me where I get my nails done and many I have referred to Lavish (and they go back!). There are not many places around here that can turn an idea or design you find online into something as good or better than the picture you bring in (please note that this applies to the owner who has been doing nails for many years and is at the top of the game. I see the other nail techs do amazing, complicated designs too, but I can only speak for the complexity factor that the owner offers- who is a true artist and creative genius to be able to imagine in his head all the layers involved for some of the hardest designs that he has pulled off with flying colors. He only books himself by appointment (as far as I know) but even if he is not able to personally do your nails, I have seen him inspect the work of the other techs to maintain a high-quality standard, and I rarely see anyone leaving with a plain jane design (unless simple is what they were wanting). He has trained his techs well and I have seen some shadow his work even. I have witnessed them do nails for children, the elderly, and the disabled. I have not seen people complain. Just happy people leaving with fresh pedicures/nails. They are respectful to women and minorities here. They have a diverse clientele and a diverse staff. Everyone (without an attitude problem) should feel welcomed here!

    Emma always does an amazing job on my nails, she constantly checks in to see if I'm doing okay, if…read moreshe's hurting me at all (which she never is), and she always takes care of me. My nails turn out perfect every time. I've been coming consistently for months and can say that it's not a fluke. Everyone here does a good job and is so kind. Pictures are my real nails she freestyled for Lollapalooza. They had been done a week prior.
