Best Manicures near me in Highland Park, Chicago

Studio Boka is truly top-tier. From the moment you walk in, the space feels clean, modern, and welcoming. The atmosphere is relaxing yet professional — you can tell they genuinely care about the experience they provide. Alexa is hands down the BEST nail technician. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She takes her time, listens to exactly what you want, and delivers flawless results. The shape of my nails was perfect, the polish application was smooth and precise, and the overall finish looked incredibly clean and professional.

Best manicure ever! I haven’t been to Boka in a while because I tried a place closer to my home, and I am blown away by the differences. Tanya made my nails absolutely perfect and I will never go elsewhere again! Studio Boka is the best!

I just moved to Highland Park and finding a new nail salon is always difficult but I went off reviews and found Max Studio. Location is so close to where I live, I walked in and it immediately had the vibe I like. Clean, cozy and classy! Mira was my tech and she was so sweet, helped me decide on some color options and I loved what we chose! She showed me her own nails as inspiration and they were beautiful, so we went with that for my manicure. I have been packing and moving for almost a month, so my nails needed some serious love and she did just that! So happy and I’ll definitely come back!

I somehow think GMM Nails is one of Highland Parks best kept secrets! I come here regularly because Laura does beautiful job--careful, attentive to detail, efficient and timely. It's an hour or so when I can let my head relax because I don't have any second guesses about the quality of the job! I'd recommend GMM Nails to anyone who's looking for a calming experience and a great Mani- Pedi!

After an extensive search of nail salons in Highland Park, I’ve FINALLY found the BEST!! Laura is so sweet & professional. The salon is clean, relaxing & conveniently located with easy street parking & a covered garage across the street. My nails are VERY sensitive and my pedicure easily lasts a month (with Dazzle Dry) and best of all, it’s reasonably priced! You can make your appointment online too with confirmation via email/text. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

Nicest people ever! New owners! Welcome to Highland Park!

Amazing attention to detail! I dont know the last time I left a review but she was remarkable. She was so attentive and wanted to make sure the shape and length were what I wanted. Also, so often on a gel mani, a little skin/cuticle gets attached and it looks fine at first, but grows out poorly. I could tell she was determined to keep the polish on the nail only. If I lived closer, I would only go here!

The Manicure was so relaxing. It was interesting to watch Laura shape and shine my nails. I would definitely recommend her to somebody else.

BEST manicures my daughter and I have had in years. Naomi and Mina were excellent, careful and conscientious! Salon is clean and calming. Great selection of polish colors to choose from. Naomi did an amazing job replicating the nail art inspo photo my daughter showed her! Even better than the picture!! Highly recommend!
