Excellent service in a pleasant, clean environment, by a friendly, quality nail technician .

My appointment was made very easily. I needed to get services before a wedding I was going to on Friday (9/27). I went in on a Tuesday morning (9/24). I was not feeling too great but I had a pedicure and full set scheduled. Tracy was very nice. We started with my pedicure. A small pedicure bowl (similar to one I have at home) was waiting for me. Not a big deal as long as it's clean and my toes are taken care of. Then I got my full set. Tracy used a file instead of a drill. Again, not a big deal for me as long as the turn out is the same. There was no powder for the gel nails just a sort of ready made gel that was applied onto the tips. The tips were also added to a polished adhesive that was painted on my nails. I've never had this style done to my nails but I went with it. She had received great reviews for nails. My bill was $95. That is very high from what I would normally pay. When I got home I noticed the gel on one of my nails was also on my skin. It's happened before with other salons so I filed it down. Later, I was looking at my toes and noticed the polish was not cleaned off well and wasn't that neat. Looking deeper I noticed under my toe nails were not cleaned out either. Then I started looking at my nails and my left tip of my left thumb nail broke off. I had to really file that nail and reshape it and ended up reshaping the others a bit to match. The nails looked like they had lifted off my natural nails. The way they look when you've had them for 2-3 weeks. I couldn't believe it. My boyfriend asked me what I was doing because he thought I went out to get that done. I sent Tracy a message letting her know the issues and she asked if I could come in the next day to fix everything but I couldn't. I was feeling even more sick and still had to find a dress but I just stayed home until the wedding and wore something from my closet. Thursday I was washing a few dishes and felt my left pointer finger was missing a nail. It had fallen off. By then I had had enough and couldn't go to the wedding with a nail missing. I decided to remove the nails. Very easily 7 more of them just came off. Fully. I was in shock. I've never had any full set ever come off so easily let alone fall off or break. I ended up just buffing, filing and adding a clear coat to my nails. I wanted to love this place but it was very disappointing. read more

My nails have always been brittle and easy to break for as long as I can remember that even when I would get no-chip manicures @ other places, it would barely last a week. There is a reason that Tracy is my go to and now always will be. She takes the time to apply an extra coat for me and that seems to do the trick. For the first time ever, I now have no chips that last until my next appointment two weeks later. I'm one very happy customer. Tracy is professional, great conversation during the appointment and does an exceptional job. Highly recommend! read more

I've been going to Tracy for many years. When my nails are not growing and need a little love, we have done a full set of gel nails. Since I am pregnant, naturally my nails are growing quickly. No chip manicures are def my go to right now. Tracy over exceeds my expectations each and every visit. Her attention to detail is remarkable. The salon has no scent of fumes and as soon as you walk in you immediately feel the relaxation set in. Pedicures are clean, no question the equipment isn't clean. She uses a disposable soak which makes you feel confident there isn't any lingering infections. Highly recommend Tracy, she has never disappointed. Best nail tech in town read more

Thank you thank you thank you again Tracy for squeezing me in last minute and brining my nails back to life!!!! She did an amazing job! No drills and she uses an actual gel for the overlay not a powder #tracystipsandtoes #geloverlay read more

Tracy's Tips & Toes - Nail Salons Near Me - Arlington Heights, Illinois

Tracy went out of her way to make a very difficult time more bearable. I almost never get a manicure, but my father passed away recently and I knew that I needed professional help to get my hands and nails in shape for his funeral. A few days before the funeral, I started looking for a nail salon and was dismayed to find that many of the local chains had a number of negative reviews. This was too important of an event for me to risk a bad manicure! I found Tracy's Tips & Toes on Yelp and clicked on the appointment link. I didn't expect to get a reply until the following day, as it was late in the evening, but Tracy replied within minutes and I quickly had an appointment for the following day. I don't often wear nail polish, so I needed Tracy's help choosing a shade. As we were beginning, I asked - mostly out of curiosity - about the differences between a "regular" manicure and other options. She explained the differences between gels, no chip, and traditional products. Knowing that I wanted my nails to look good for a very important event, it would have been easy for Tracy to pressure me into a higher-priced product, but Tracy simply explained the differences and allowed me to make the choice that was right for me. Ultimately, knowing that I am hard on my nails and not wanting them to chip before the funeral, I did ask for a no chip polish instead of the regular polish I'd initially chosen. It seems like a little thing, but knowing that my nails looked good helped ease the stress of a very difficult day. Tracy made sure that I had both the right product and the right shade, and the time that she took to fit me in at the end of a day is deeply appreciated. read more

I absolutely LOVE getting my nails done by Tracy. I found her on Yelp well over a year ago and set up an appointment and right away I knew she was my person. She is beyond personable and anytime I show her a nail color, idea... she is excited to meet my expectations and always does! read more

What a great idea for small businesses. Inside the Phoenix Salons are a bunch of little independent salons. Tracy is in there. To the right when you walk in. Tracy is super friendly. Quick and clean. She is very relatable. I made a new appointment on the spot. Go see her. She is fab! read more

Here is a place where I enjoy getting my nails done. It's like having your own personal stylist and it's only you and her. I loved it! Not that I'm obsessed with my own presence or need any establishment all to myself but wow does it feel good once in a while?! Yes! You bet it does! Not to mention she uses different, (seemingly) higher quality products and does a fantastic job! Probably the best I have ever had and I get my nails and toes done often. Tracy is also a blast to chat with and has such a positive and bubbly personality. All around 5 stars! read more

Bought a groupon for a mani/pedi a few months back. Had a great experience - and Tracy was very friendly! Will be back!

Tracy is amazing! I had a no chip manicure weeks ago and my nails still look great! She helpfully suggested blending two colors to help me get exactly the shade I wanted and was incredibly patient. Her space is located within Phoenix Suites in Randhurst and Tracy keeps it very cute and clean. It is a hidden gem. She also is such a sweetheart! She recently accommodated her schedule so she could fit me in before a trip-very rare these days! Go visit Tracy, you won't regret it! read more

Tracy is the best I have NEVER had to wait she is always so efficient and very friendly. I feel like I can tell her my life story while sitting there. I am definitely hooked after trying her groupon out. My nails last almost 3 weeks everytime and ALWAYS look fabulous! Tracy is the best around! read more

I love going to Tracy for my nails! She has a great personality, is accommodating with appointments, very sanitary work place, and excellent nail work. I've broken nails before (my own fault, not bad nail work) and Tracy does her best to fit me in. If she's totally booked and can't fit me in, I don't care, I take whatever the next appointment is; I won't go anywhere else. read more

Amazing. I called and got an appointment for the same day. She uses a creamy kind of gel rather than powder and the new nail is not nearly as thick and so smooth. Almost ordorless. Going on vacation and she told me if I needed a touch up on polish to give her a call and she would fit me in before I left. Her service is slightly cheaper than others and the non factory type nail salon service is very refreshing. Tracy is wonderful and talented and I will definately be going back. read more
