Best Nail Extensions near me in Downtown, Chicago

Studio Boka is truly top-tier. From the moment you walk in, the space feels clean, modern, and welcoming. The atmosphere is relaxing yet professional — you can tell they genuinely care about the experience they provide. Alexa is hands down the BEST nail technician. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She takes her time, listens to exactly what you want, and delivers flawless results. The shape of my nails was perfect, the polish application was smooth and precise, and the overall finish looked incredibly clean and professional.

Hannah did a great job on my gel no-chip manicure! My nails are short and she was able to work with what I’ve got and make them look pretty

I love Boka Nail Salon! Their service is top-notch—my nails always look amazing, and the staff is skilled and attentive. The salon is clean, relaxing, and they offer a great selection of colors and designs. The only downside is that the staff often speaks another language in front of clients, which can feel a bit rude. It would be nice if they kept conversations more inclusive. Other than that, I highly recommend this place for quality nail care!

As a salon owner, I’m very picky about service quality. I have high standards, especially when it comes to e-file techniques. I’m truly satisfied with the waterless e-file pedicure with Marzhan. Clean, precise work. Well done and absolutely deserved recognition. Thank you Marzhan. You will be a great top quality nail tech soon.

Valeria is incredibly talented meticulous, gentle and attentive. She always checks that I’m comfortable and never rushes. I had my nails done by her almost two months ago before traveling to the Philippines, and they grew longer than they have in over 10 years with zero chips! Her almond-shaped French manicure is pure perfection. She’s eager to learn, passionate about quality and truly outstanding. Kudos to Valeria for her amazing work and to Anna for leading such an inspiring team. Дякуємо

I have been going to elegance for five years and I absolutely love it! Never a bad chemical smell like other nail places and you even get a little massage while your nails are drying, which is a great touch!

Always the best experience here! I love my nail color and the care the technician took was excellent.

Amelina Paraiso is one of the best nail salons in the Chicago area. I have been coming here for over four years and the staff is wonderful. The salon is European style based mani and pedi which if you know is much better then the traditional foot soaking in water salons we have here. The aesthetic of Amelina Paraiso is top notch! Nothing beats it in comparison. My nails and toes always look put together and I come out there feeling like a new person. Amelina Paraiso is one of the best! If you want amazing service, European aesthetic this place is the one! Cheers

The place is beautiful and smells wonderful. I made an appointment and was taken back in less than 3 minutes from the time I walked in. This was a Friday as well. The nail techs are very kind and professional. I will recommend them to friends and family!

A very nice nail salon w excellent manicurists . If you want the best manicure you’ve ever had, come here!! Jd

Amalia Paraiso once again, has been accommodating and my nails always look on point. This nail salon is one of the best in the Chicagoland area, and uses high quality materials for their customers. I love that they do the E-file manicure and it’s European vibe and feel because they are the best in the show. Will continue coming here!

They take the time to do a detailed work on your nails. Love the shoulder massage too!

There is nothing comparable to Amelina Paraiso salon! The quality of the products, e-files and bits, the technicians work ... top quality! The entire team is strong and always helping each other to grow and improve. My nails always look phenomenal and it is such a pleasure to visit with such lovely women – each and every one of them! I drive all the way from downtown Chicago to Desplaines and it is WORTH the trip! Because of the long trip, I am able to stretch out my visits to five weeks. The manicure + gel overlay + gel color last THAT LONG!

Amazing service! Detailed technique, caring master! My nails look perfect and the design is just what I wanted. Aksana reads my mind and executes beautifully! The best nail salon in Chicago land area (and I’ve tried many!) Studio Boka thank you for your love for the nail art !

I always have a great experience at Elegance. The nail techs are excellent.
