I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Party Nails in Waukegan. This was my fifth visit,…read moreand I had always gone there for a simple pedicure. During my most recent visit, the manager talked me into getting a manicure as well. I believed I was receiving a basic manicure and pedicure, so I was shocked when my bill came to $105 before tip. My previous visits had been around $65. I later realized that gel polish had been applied. I never specifically requested gel polish and generally avoid it because it has damaged my nails in the past. About three weeks later, I returned to have the gel removed and get a pedicure with regular polish. At that point, the owner told me they "never use regular nail polish." I found that very difficult to believe, especially since I had never requested gel polish and was never clearly informed that it was being used. As a disabled customer living on a fixed income, I need to know exactly what services I am receiving and what they will cost. Instead, I felt like services were added without being properly explained, resulting in a much higher bill than expected. When I tried to address my concerns, I felt dismissed rather than helped. What upset me most was the lack of transparency and communication. Customers should be clearly told when they are receiving upgraded services that cost significantly more. Unfortunately, after this experience, I will be taking my business elsewhere and cannot recommend Party Nails to others.

I don't usually do my hands (I'm an electrician--hands stay busy!) so yes I still go to the salon…read morebut it's for the pedicures! I've been loving the trend of acrylic toenails lately. I think they make your feet look super cute, and it's not something every salon does well--or even offers. That's how I ended up finding Party Nails and Spa. I came in less than an hour before closing after a really rough week at work. I just needed a minute to breathe and do something for myself. Not only did they take me in with zero hesitation, but they kept working on me past closing time. That alone says so much about their customer service. The pedicure came out so good--super clean work, I did only put acrylic on my big toes, and just an overall pampered finish. The vibe was relaxed, never rushed, and honestly, it helped turn my whole day around. Sharing some pics so you can see the quality for yourself! If you're thinking about trying acrylic toes, or just need a place that treats you like more than just another appointment.

Not only did she completely ignore my request, she cut the nails down, did not put on the tips, and when I told her I was not happy with the result, she said (verbatim). "They'll grow back." Clearly I realize that, but my event (i.e., a date) was the following day. She was rude and self-righteous. It was a deal breaker. I never went back.

This was my first time at Utopia Nails &Spa. The receptionist was very nice taking my information…read moreand the process was simple. The only thing that would have made my experience better would have been if more things were explained to me about how the process is at this establishment. For instance, I saw there was a little bar and read on the rotating tv screen that refreshments were available. I was not asked or offered nor was anyone else who came in after me. I also wasn't aware that there was a nail polish "room" so when the technician came out to get me he stopped right outside the room and asked me to pick a color. I felt a little rushed to pick one out and felt bad because I waited about 10 minutes for my appointment to start and could have spent that time looking for a color. I just picked one that caught my eye and then we went back to the pedicure area. The pedicure room was very nice! Nice ambiance, music and lighting. The massage chair was nice. I know at most nail salons, the technicians and customers may talk during thier service, but this is not something that is really done here because it's intended to be a relaxing moment. So if you like to talk with your technician while getting your pedicure, don't be surprised if that doesn't happen because it doesn't seem like that is the vibe they are trying to set. I asked for a male technician and my request was granted. I don't remember him clearly telling me his name before we started. I did feel like he rushed at some points but did take his time when painting my nails which I appreciated. The massage was nice and longer than at most other nail salons. There was a lot of focus on my calves I feel as opposed to my feet. I wish he would have spent more massage time on my feet and my arches and did more massage techniques than the one motion. Another suggestion I have is for there to be somewhere for customers to hang their belongings (coats/purses) when that are getting their services done. I had to put my coat over n the chair next to me and my purse on the floor next to me. Maybe putting like a coat rack or hooks on the wall behind the chair would be nice for the customer. After my service, my technician Carried my shoes and coat out to the waiting area. I asked him what his name was and he pointed to his name on the ticket he gave me and said his name. Overall, a good experience and I do plan on going back again. Overall I had a good experience but it would h
