Best Salons in Chicago

I’ve been coming to Elegance Nail & Spa since it opened many years ago and the service is always great. The salon itself is very clean and the prices are amazing! The staff that did my nails were both great incredibly talented and kind. I now live in Chicago but try to stop into Elegance whenever I am in town!

Where do I even start?! I had an absolute amazing time at my appointment with Theresa! I booked with her back in October, as I was planning a trip from Detroit to Chicago in February, and everything worked out so well! The salon was beautiful, and everyone was so welcoming and nice! And Theresa? The absolute cutest, coolest, and nicest person ever. I absolutely adore the way my hair turned out, it’s definitely my favorite hair color I’ve done, which says something cause I do my hair a lot haha. I can’t wait to plan another trip so I can come back, I had so much fun and Theresa is so talented.❤️

The best facial experience in Chicago. Enter with dull, stressed tired complexion and leave relaxed and glowing and beautiful! Natasha is the best!

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! 🫶🏼

The entire team at Shine On exceeded expectations. I don’t know thst I’ve had a salon experience in Chicago where I felt I was actually being listened to when explaining what I’m looking for. Noah took the time to explain what he was doing, including what I could expect two and three cuts out. I had eyebrow threading done with Weronicka and she too was amazing. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a grown up experience. I’ll be sharing the Shine On business card with friends and look forward to my next salon day.

I always have the best experience here. They have the most thoughtful touches like a full coffee bar with Nespresso, fancy syrups and snacks too! Everyone does an amazing job and I love watching all the results as I’m getting my hair done. The stylists all seem to be real friends and it’s such a warm environment. Coraima is the BEST. I always walk out grinning ear to ear. I love this salon and am so, so happy I found it and switched from going into Chicago! I’ll be a lifelong client.

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!

Be did such an incredible job on my nails! 💅 She’s so gentle, detail-oriented, and really knows how to bring out the perfect shape and finish. My nails look flawless and I’ve been getting so many compliments. The whole experience with Be was relaxing and enjoyable—I can’t wait to book with her again at MiniLuv in West Town, Chicago!

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

When I came to twin my hair was damaged from a beautician in my town ( I don’t live in Chicago). I noticed that my hair wasn’t growing. I went back to twin and she got my hair straight. Thank you. My hair is now getting stronger and longer.

I trusted Janet with my hair and she exceeded my expectations!! I am speechless, there’s a reason why she travels all over the world to do hair for her clients. Would definitely recommend, just found my permanent hair stylist in Chicago

Best nails in Chicago!

Amanda is amazing and we wouldn’t want anyone else taking care of our family’s hair! 15 years and counting and my son still drives in from Chicago to get his hair done by her.

Sparkle Nail Salon in West Loop is amazing! Super clean, professional staff, and my dipping powder nails came out perfect. Loved the free eyebrow waxing promo too! Best nail salon in downtown Chicago — highly recommend!

The best beauty studio in Chicago with exceptional services!
