Fresha customer
I've been going to GNM Nails for years, and Laura always does a fantastic job!! I also recommend trying the Bio Gel Manicure. It takes longer than a regular gel/no-chip manicure (and needs more curing under the UV light), but they LAST. My first two, I was able to go 3.5 weeks with no chipping or breaking. My most recent one was 4.5 weeks, still no chipping or breaking! (But definitely obvious it had gone a bit too long because of the distance between the polish and the nail bed.) My nails were longer than I'd ever been able to grow them over the last decade, with no tearing or breaking!!!

One, if not, the best place in town for a truly relaxing and calming expierence! Everyone is so nice, it's bright, sunny, and welcoming without a hit of nail polish fumes, and perfect manicures by all the specialists there. Always a joy being pampered in that calming environment and felling refreshed, rejuvenated, and refilled with feminine grace when I walk out!

The place is super clean. Massage chair and foot spa was nice. The manicure and pedicure were very thorough. I would have given 5 stars, but I love sparkles. I could not find a color saturated in sparkles. I had to get a plain color and add sparkle as a top layer.

Good craftsmanship! Although the technique was good; I picked cat eye and it’s not giving that effect. It looks more glitter/shine than cat eye. I bit disappointed given that cat eye is an up charge.

Gel Nails FAQs
Book your next gel nails appointment in Chicago with Fresha
When you’re thinking about your next nail appointment, consider Fresha your pocket-sized planner. Fresha helps you find the best nail salons in Chicago, allowing you to browse treatments, find your ideal appointment time, and pay online in advance. All that’s left for you to do is show up at your chosen nail salon. Too easy.
One of the great things about gel nails is how long they last. You can keep that colour popping and shine shimmering for weeks. Gel polishes like Shellac dry hard too, so you’ll likely feel that added durability for your natural nail bed. And because they stay put, you can give your nails a chance to grow. So they should be just the right length for your next nail appointment. Book gel nails and gel nail removal at top salons in Chicago, with prices ranging between $10 and $118.
Here at Fresha we’re self-care detectives. We’ve sniffed out the best self-care spots in Chicago, United States, without any trouble. But occasionally everyone needs a helping hand. So if you think we’re missing a business, then do let us know at hello@fresha.com. We’re keen to spread the word, since ours is the number one scheduling software for salons and clinics in the world. With 1 billion appointments booked, there’s no mystery to our success. Just good quality appointments and the slickest booking experience. So let’s match you up with one of our 450,000 skilled professionals. It might just make your day.
