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

I’ve received a lot of Russian manicures around the city trying to find the right place and this is the only place that has truly gotten it right. Emily took her time and my Russian manicure and pedicure are absolute perfection. I’ll be a regular customer from now on for sure!

I loved my basic regular pedicure. The scents and scrub for the basic package was so only luxurious, that I would have been willing to spend more. We booked the first opening in the morning and they were letting us in a bit ahead of time. But the cherry on top was the brand new massage chairs with arm and back massage options. My daughter's gel pedicure was the best she's ever had. Better than the ones in Pilsen/Chinatown/River North. We're going to be lifetime customers!

Erika is AMAZING! I see her for pedicures regularly, and she does such a marvelous job every time. She is very thorough and takes her time, paying extra attention to the details. My feet have never been softer, and the nail polish is always perfectly done. Incredible value for service. Not to mention that being in her chair is an absolute joy - she is so warm and friendly, and overall she really knows how to take care of her clients from start to finish.

This was my first time at the salon. Nancy was my nail technician and she was great! I had acrylics on as another Salon recommended them but she said no you don’t need them just stick with the gel. It’s better anyway. I was very pleased to hear that instead of having me spend the extra money, she actually cared about my nails. I never thought I needed acrylics and they were pushed on me telling me my nails were very then, but they were not. I would highly recommend the Salon! And if Nancy is available, ask for her. She does great work!

Gel Nails FAQs
Book your next gel nails appointment in River South with Fresha
Booking with Fresha is a piece of cake. Our seamless booking technology means you can find a local salon, pick an appointment time and pay up front. All in just a few taps. And the icing on the cake? We’ve searched for all of the best nails places in River South, so you can be confident you’re booking quality treatments.
Reach into your bag with confidence. Gel nails, often called Shellac nails, have the same deep gloss and gorgeous colour range of regular nail polish but are much tougher and resistant to chipping. A gel manicure can look perfect for a solid 2 to 3 weeks. When you fancy a refresh, your manicurist normally soaks off the old gel polish using special soak-off gels. Gel polish is super speedy, too, as your manicurist sets it with UV light. Getting a gel manicure in River South should take less than 2 hours and 15 minutes. Use Fresha to book in for some gel nail colour at the best local salons now.
If you’ve seen something you like, let’s get it locked in. Fresha is the number one destination for all things hair, nails and health. We enjoy a smooth ride as much as you do, so if you need a hand with anything at all, let us know at hello@fresha.com. Otherwise let’s get you to that appointment in River South, United States. So far 130,000 partners globally are using Fresha to offer services to customers like you via our top-ranked appointment booking system for nail salons. We’ve handled 1 billion appointments around the globe, and we’re not stopping now. Book in, and see what all the hype is about.
