Coby L.
Tony is hands down the best nail tech I’ve ever had! 💎 His creativity and attention to detail are unmatched—he always makes sure my nails come out perfect. Whether it’s a simple manicure or a bold design, Tony takes the time to listen and delivers exactly what I want (and more!). The vibe at MiniLuv is super welcoming, and Tony makes the whole experience fun and relaxing. Highly recommend him if you’re in West Town, 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

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!!!

Regina did an amazing job on my overlay gel manicure! She was incredibly meticulous and paid attention to every little detail, making sure everything was perfect. She also took the time to help me choose the right color, and I'm so glad I trusted her recommendation. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about their work and delivers beautiful results, I highly recommend Regina!

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 $120.
