REVIEWS

This is the best quality no-chip you can get with a groupon! At first, I was worried that the end results would be bad because the nail technician was super speedy. But she knew exactly was she was doing and was so efficient! There was no unevenness in the application and my nails lasted for 3 weeks without chipping. They offer you tea/coffee and place a complementary, heated sand bag on your shoulders to relax while you get your nails done which is a plus. They also have the best romantic comedy movies playing on the TV. I don't think there's free parking but the area that they are located in Evanston has a lot of street parking nearby.

This place is A-Ok. I had no chip done here recently and although my no chip is ok it took about two days for my cuticles to heal as the nail tech who did my nails was not gentle and several times took more of my cuticle that was necessary, which was pretty painful for several days. I liked the salon; OPI nail color selection and the location but I doubt I will be back.

Wow. I called and said "I know you close at 7:30 (it was 7), but do you have time to do a half arm wax?" The person said yes so I drove eight minutes to get there and the place was dark. I called and the phone just rang. The posted hours said open til 7:30. It it 7:15 as I type this review. I've never posted a review before but this was just shitty. Why not just say no sorry we're busy!? Why make me drive there for nothing? Good thing I'll never be back to find out why.

Beautiful nail spa, every technician is very talented. I always get flawless manicure here. My no chip manicure stays easy 3 weeks. Highly recommended to everyone :)

My favorite nail salon in evanston. Super nice staff. Clean facility. And they're always willing to fix my manicure when I don't want long enough to let it dry and smudge it trying to unlock my door!

I've been going to Evans for ages because I live across the street and there are no other nail salons within walking distance. The space is nice and clean and they use good polish brands. I have friends who come here and like it and I know I have high standards when it comes to this stuff so it's 3 stars max, here's why: -The customer service is hit and miss, occasionally they offer you water/ tea or a shoulder rub but most of the time not. -The movies are usually too loud so if you want to relax, (or saw the same movie every other time your came) you can't block it out- even with headphones. -My polish consistently chips or peels within 2-3 days of getting them done. -I've been left waiting for an hour with my feet soaking in cold water having arrived on time for a scheduled appointment before having someone start my pedicure. -Today the lady changed the color I picked out without asking or telling me. I look down at the end and it's a white-out white, not the clear 'ballet slippers' I'd chosen. I went back and got the right color from the shelf which she'd apparently put away, and asked if there was something wrong with the bottle I'd chosen. She said 'yeah but you picked white'. I showed her the color I wanted was clear and not opaque and asked for my hands to be done with the right color, but she didn't apologize or offer to redo them. I probably wouldn't be writing this review if they did an ok job on my hands. -They file very roughly (which is why the polish chips), they never remove the polish from the week before properly, and never clean under the nail properly either. They also have a weird habit of painting three very thick coats so it looks like you have stick-on nails, but they chip faster and dry so slowly. It's usually because they polished unevenly for the first two coats and want to cover it up with a third. Some of the girls do a better job on cuticles than others, but usually I feel I could have done it myself at home.

I love this place! I tried many, if not all the salons in Evanston and this one is my favorite! I like the movies they play as well :)
