Best Nail Salons near me in Braeside, 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.

The pedicures at GMM Nails are wonderful. I’ve been getting the Volcano pedicure for the past six months and it is totally worth the extra cost. The service is great and my toes look fantastic.

This was my first visit and I enjoyed my pedicure and the hot stone massage. It was a nice environment and my feet were so soft and pampered. Great attention to detail and my nails look fabulous.

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!

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 !

The best nail studio in Chicago land area! The results always exceed my expectations. Got my perfect mani and pedi today and can’t wait for the next visit!

Best on the Northshore and Chicago! Absolute perfection and such attention to detail!

I really enjoy this Salon. The nail techs are always welcoming and the atmosphere is stress free. My manicure was great. Tanya is very creative and takes great care with my cuticles and the shaping of my nails. Thanks 😊

Had another wonderful manicure by Tanya. I cannot express enough how much I look forward to my manicure. My nails have never been better. I haven’t had a snag or broken nail since I started with Boka Studio. Love this Salon ❤️

After an extensive search of nail salons in Highland Park, I’ve FINALLY found the BEST!! Laura is so sweet & professional. The salon is clean, relaxing & conveniently located with easy street parking & a covered garage across the street. My nails are VERY sensitive and my pedicure easily lasts a month (with Dazzle Dry) and best of all, it’s reasonably priced! You can make your appointment online too with confirmation via email/text. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I had a manicure & pedicure with Laura yesterday. She is welcoming, efficient, and very careful with her work. I've been here a number of times and my experience is consistently the same-- I can rest my head and trust that I will be well pleased when it's done. It is a lovely "self-care" opportunity in my frenetic life🙏🏻

As always, I had a perfectly lovely experience AND a quality pedicure at GMM Nails today. Thank you, Suzie!

The Manicure was so relaxing. It was interesting to watch Laura shape and shine my nails. I would definitely recommend her to somebody else.

Laura does a fantastic mani/pedi as well as chair massage. My no chip manicure lasts 2 weeks with my brittle short nails. I’m so happy I found her and the shop.

My experience at GMM Nails was wonderful! It is a quiet, soothing environment, Laura was warm & the job she did on my nails was terrific! GMM lacks the busy bustle of a lot of nail shops I've tried and offers a soothing gentle space to quiet my head! I'll be back!

Laura always gives an excellent manicure and pedicure.

Excellent manicure and pedicure. The business's is clean and pleasant.

Schedule a men's manicure and pedicure (no polish buff) while my car was being washed next door. Did an excellent job. Will definitely come back again soon. Thank you!
