I have found my nail place, and nail person in HP! Yay! I've been coming here for almost a year now. This place is really good, everyone is friendly and I like that they always have the happy days $40 for mani/pedi on Mondays-Wednesdays and the $3 off with Yelp check-in. More importantly, I love that they don't rush their work. 5 stars all the way! read more

Always an amazing job! First nail place to get it right! Love my no chip manicures and pedicures. They train all of their employees in the proper techniques and (shocker!) they are clean! read more

Serene Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Highland Park, Illinois

My friends Ella and Abby recommended this beautiful nail place about 4 years ago and rest is history. I have been coming here consistently for past 4 years now and always feel somehow satisfied with their overall service every single time. Everybody is super nice and accommodating. I never had any problem with them since I am not super picky. They are really reasonable and down to earth people. I always meet my two best friends here and spend good time talking and they never rushed us even when they were busy. Owners are great!!! I could easily recommend this place for anybody!!! read more

I was not happy with the end result. The environment was comfortable, but ultimately I go to a nail salon to leave with pretty nails. I certainly did not get that. I went in with long nails and asked for them to be trimmed. She not only butchered them but didn't even cut them straight. ...And the polish was applied poorly as well. read more

Serene Nails - I went in with long nails for me and asked for them to be trimmed and she butchered me and didn't even make them straight. - Nail Salons Near Me - Highland Park, Illinois

See all

This was my first time at Serene and it was a great experience! The salon was clean, I was able to walk in without an appointment and get my nails done right away, and one of the girls even went out of her way to help me pick out a color to match my dress perfectly. The price for a polish change on my toenails was a little more than I'm used to, but she went above and beyond what I'm used to. The service was definitely worth the few extra dollars. She also did a great job on my no-chip manicure. read more

They did my nails so good and I felt safe I would highly recommend this nail salon

Just walked in at 6:40pm and asked for a pedicure while several technicians we just standing/sitting around. The girl at the desk laughed at me and told me..."uhhhh we close at 7"....taking my business elsewhere! read more

So clean, a great variety of colors, and really, really pleasant people. On today's visit, I came with my sister and mother for mani-pedi's and - from appointment making to nail drying, everything and everyone was wonderful! read more

I had such a good experience at Serene Nail salon that I felt compelled to write a review. The salon is beautiful and well kept and clean. My technician Ari was very detailed oriented and made my nails look phenomenal. She took her time on both my manicure and pedicure and made sure the color was applied evenly which makes such a difference in the way your nails look. The staff was friendly and the whole experience was very relaxing and such a needed treat after my day. When I am in town again I will definitely stop in again. read more

They are so nice here. It's clean, and everyone is professional. My nails always look great, and my eyebrows do as well when I get them waxed. I don't ever feel rushed or like the nail technicians are rushing either. I highly recommend this nail salon! read more

It's my favorite place to get spoiled. Exceptional staff and service. The salon is very modern and clean. The quality of products and services is superior to anything I've had before. A regular manicure will, truly, last for a whole week before starts to chip. My favorite manicure is the mood changing, no chip polish. All the technicians are very pleasant and knowledgeable. I, always, come out renewed, relaxed and with awesome nails. read more

Salon was extremely clean and in good condition. The massage chairs for the pedicure was great and the pedicure was really well done. My pedicurist was very efficient but detailed and gave a great leg massage! A little more on the pricier end. My pedicure was $32 (after $3 yelp discount for first time check in) read more

I went there last week with a friend who lives in the neighborhood. She said it's her favorite place to get pampered. And I am IMPRESSED! The salon was beautiful and everyone working there were super friendly! We got manicure and pedicure combos and it still hasn't chipped yet! read more

Kathy and Jelena are the best in town! Have been coming here for almost 2 years now. No need to look any further for a nail salon. If tipping on a card be sure to ask for the tip back in cash and make sure you give it to the right person. I have seen some of the girls not get their tips. read more

I'll be honest, I don't love this place. I've been here a few times since I work in highland park and periodically need a quick no chip manicure on my lunch break. They are quick, and the place is clean, but they don't have a large selection of no chip colors. The few times I've come, my no chip didn't last long & the paint was uneven. Maggie did my nails on lunch today, and while she was thorough, I have small bubbles and marks in my paint. The edges near my cuticles aren't clean, and I just don't feel like they look neat up close. My friend felt the same way about her mani too. Also jealous that she got a neck massage and I wasn't even asked. Not saying I wouldn't come back, since the location is convenient when I'm in HP, but I've had much better service and prices in the city. read more

I found this nail salon because they were included in The Cancer Survivor Day. I had a fabulous pedicure! The salon was clean and inviting. I would recommend them to anyone. What a fabulous experience. Thank you, thank you for all that you do. read more

I love this place! I live in Chicago and I make the journey up to highland park to go to this nail salon. I was in the area one day and had 2 hours to kill. I walked in and was able to get a manicure right away. Manicure is $15, and includes a neck/shoulder massage. Seriously clean, they opened up the tools fresh for my manicure. One of my other favorite places is Bien Assorti in Glencoe. This place is even better and a fraction of the cost. I have gone back 4 more times, great service every time. Mani/pedi is $40. read more

I always enjoy my experience at Serene Nails. Everyone who works there is very pleasant and makes you feel welcome. I enjoy watching a great movie and sitting back & relaxing waiting for my nails to dry. Getting a chair massage is always a treat and I highly recommend it! read more

Nails look amazing every time and the most importantly the polish stays on!!! I've had several different manicurist, and have not been disappointed. I love the extra touches like the shoulder and back massage. I would highly recommend this place. read more

I loved Angela and the mani pedi! What I wasn't overly fond of was the guy at the front desk. He wasn't friendly nor customer service focused. I had a discount card from Northshore Plus and in a round a bout way he gave me a hard time when I presented it. Overall, I enjoyed my experience. read more

I went here for a pedicure and I will not be returning. I try not to hover over technicians doing their work because I don't want to seem overbearing, so I was on my phone reading when she cut my toe nails so short that there was basically NO length left to cut and she didn't even ask if I wanted them cut in the first place! Her tools also were really dull so when she cut my cuticles she was pulling on them so that hurt. At some point I had to tell the technician to ease up on pressure because she was holding my toe so hard that her nail was digging into my skin and it was painful. She also filed my nails super weird so some are square, some are round, and worst of all on my pinky nail (both of them) she did BOTH shapes. Like one corner of the nail is square and the other corner is round. Because she was so rough, I was expecting the massage portion to be better because I don't mind hard pressure, but the massage lasted a whopping 10 seconds per leg.... Definitely nothing SERENE about this pedicure... I was pretty stressed the entire time. read more

They were very nice. After I left, I smudged a couple of my nails and when I returned they immediately fixed them and made them look very nice. read more

I came here on Christmas Eve for a vinylux mani and they did a great job! My manicure lasted 8 days without chips, I was very impressed! The staff is very friendly and they take their time and do a great job. Very Clean too! I will be retuning soon. read more

I had a 1pm appointment for pedicure and was kept waiting until 1:15. Then I was shown to a broken pedicure chair. The manager was very rude. I will not be returning. read more

Kind of a joke. I asked for a parafin treatment and when they finally understood what I asked for, they brought over two plastic bags each filled with the hot wax. This made it very hard to coat my hands. The technician said I could dip them directly in the wax so we went over to the container which was so hot because there was almost no wax in it. I would have burnt my hands if I had dipped them in. Finally, she took a plactic cup and poured the wax over my hands. Pretty silly place but nice massage while I was sitting with the wax on my hands. read more

I booked my appointment online via their Facebook page which is super helpful as I was seated right away when I arrived. I got the spa mani/pedi which was very relaxing (hot stone massage, scrub and polish, etc). I paid extra for a neck and arm massage while I got the mani and it was well worth it. Prices are competitive for the area. Tech Emma was great. Nice, clean, professional space with excellent service! This is my new go to spot. read more

Great service. Very clean. Good color selection! They are great about getting people in and they are thorough.

If I could give one minus a star j would. I foolishly gave serene a second chance. I am shocked any here are licensed for salon services. I had a painful pedicure, spa chair was broken and had a lip wax where It seemed the girl who did it was annoyed she had to and was not trained. Will never go back. read more

Clean and friendly service. Plus my manicures from here last the longest. A regular manicure will last 7+ days without chipping. And the prices are great - best value! read more

Just stopped by because I had time in between appointments. They were able to take me right away. Friendly and courteous staff, clean and good selection of colors! Would definitely go back. read more
