I’ve been going to Mon Cheri since 2024, and there is no one I trust more with my nails! I have noticed my nails getting stronger over time because of their quality products Mon Cheri is the best nail experience in Chicago! 🫶🏼

If you are looking to literally have THE best nails in Chicago (and frankly, anywhere you travel) book Z! She can literally execute any design I dream up and it’s 20 times better than I could have imagined. Every. Single. Time. I have faithfully been following her around for a couple years because I wouldn’t dream of letting anyone else touch my nails. Her new space is everything she’s always deserved! You will feel invited, welcomed and warm when you are at your appointments. Z’a attention to details within her work leaves your nails absolute fire!

I had an amazing experience with Tony at MiniLuv Nail Salon! 💅✨ He’s incredibly skilled, detail-oriented, and takes the time to make sure every nail is perfect. The salon atmosphere is clean, relaxing, and stylish, which made the whole visit feel like a treat. Tony listened to what I wanted and delivered even better than I imagined. My nails have never looked this good or lasted this long! Highly recommend booking with him if you’re in West Town, Chicago

Every appointment at Dynamic Salon Spa is a joy. As someone who has never regularly paid for manicures, Juliana has officially converted me with her impeccable skill to make even the wimpiest nails (MINE) look fantastic for weeks after a gel manicure! Cannot recommend her more highly.

Second time having my nails done by Olha and I’m completely obsessed! My first hard gel chrome mani lasted me over 6wks and I’m very rough with my nails. This time I asked for a French mani and I got exactly what I asked for. Her attention to detail, work ethic and kind demeanor has now gained a loyal customer 🩷

Julia and team are masters of their craft. Their precision and attention to detail are unmatched. The salon is clean and completely dust free. Julia provides the most tranquil space, with phone chargers and stands, plenty of beverage options and little sweet treats. The color selection is massive and growing constantly with so many gel options too. If she doesn’t have to color you’re looking for, I swear it appears on your next visit. She really listens to what her clients want. Overall, U soul is THE BEST. I have been with her for years and will continue to go to her forever!

Tony is amazing! I booked a manicure with him at Sparkle Nail Salon in West Loop and was blown away by his skill and attention to detail. He really takes the time to shape and polish your nails perfectly. My gel manicure lasted weeks without a chip! If you're looking for a professional nail artist in downtown Chicago, ask for Tony — he’s truly one of the best. Sparkle is lucky to have him

Every time I walk in, I’m greeted with a warm smile and a super clean, relaxing space. I’ve tried their dipping powder full sets, gel manicures, and even eyebrow waxing — every service is done with care and attention to detail. The technicians are true artists, especially Tony! ✨ If you're looking for a top-rated nail salon in Downtown Chicago that’s professional, friendly, and delivers beautiful nails that last, Sparkle is the spot. Easy online booking, great promotions, and perfect location near Fulton Market. Highly recommend!

Alia does the best French manicure in Chicago! 💅🏼

Love my nails every time. Best manicure in Chicago

Karina Ponomarenko is the absolute BEST!!! I recently moved to Chicago and was nervous to try someone new, but I have had the most amazing experience. Karina is so kind, flexible with scheduling, and easy to reach out to. I DM her on Instagram and the appointment is booked within minutes. Her new salon is beautiful with a great location, as well. I definitely recommend Karina and will continue going back to her for all my hair needs :)

Hanna is absolutely the best hair stylist in Chicago!!!

Beautiful new beauty space space in the heart of Chicago💔 Nail artist Ekaterina is a great technician, 10/10

I had an amazing visit with the best nail tech in Chicago ♥️

Mary did a great job with my gel mani. I appreciated that she let me try swatches of different colors of polish when I couldn’t decide what I wanted. I also appreciated the ability to book online and quick service. Will definitely come back!

Detailed not only in her nail care and art but also in experience! Made this first-time, referral client feel welcomed and answered all my questions on the type of manicure she provides. Get on her schedule if you can!

I cannot wait to come back! Best manicure and pedicure I've gotten hands down. Nimo went above and beyond to make sure the colors were absolutely perfect leading up to my wedding. You're the best, Nimo!!!!
