This place is the best. Andy is great and always makes sure his customers are happy. Once I made an appointment in the evening not realizing how long the appointment would take and ended up finishing after they were supposed to close. I felt terrible but Andy didn’t seem inconvenienced or rushed. John is a great nail tech. He always makes sure I’m happy with the length/shape/color before moving on to the next step. He takes his time to make sure everything is done right and never seems rushed. This is the only place I will go to get my nails done.
I have had dip powder nails several times and two pedicures. I have been getting my nails done for 15 years in several locations and since I have been going to Nail Lounge, I have developed a fungus on three of my fingernails. I am very upset. I showed it to the owner and he said it isnt a fungus. It definitely is as I got another opinion. Either the two people who I have used did not apply the powder correctly and were in a hurry or the powder was contaminated. It can take a year and a trip to the doctor and oral medication to get rid of this fungus. I will never return to this salon. Obviously, it isnt clean and/or the people are not applying the powder correctly. Beware. I am very upset.
DRIVE PAST THIS NAIL SALON!!! Me and my sister in law went there twice. We both got pedicures and fills. The first time we went the experience for myself was fine. Andy did my nails and I absolutely loved them and the design I chose was very tedious and he was very professional and patient. I really liked Andy and his work so I decided to go back for a second time but he didn’t do my nails a middle aged woman shaped them and she was so rough that I had to pull my hand away twice. She filed my actual nails to paper and she was talking about my nails to the other worker and rolled her eyes at me so I’m like ugh okay. I asked her to stop because she cut two of my fingers so she got done filing them. Another girl painted them and she was so sweet and wanted to make sure I got the color I wanted. After about four days my nails started to lift and by day day 6 I had four nails missing. I went to another nail salon to get them refilled but when the woman was taking them off she found fungus under my nails. She said that salon didn’t use clean equipment and I had to get my nails soaked off and not put on because of Nail lounge unsanitary practices. My sister in law showed the person who was doing her nails a picture of what she wanted and she also wanted an initial on one of her nails. Let’s just say it was one of those situations where you say “this is what I wanted and this is what I got” they were not very appealing and she was charged $80 for her nails. Altogether she paid $110 for a pedicure and her nails, I paid $96 for a pedicure and a fill and both were trash. I NEVER wrote a review before and don’t want to be a Karen but I wouldn’t want someone else to have such a horrible experience.
They were really fast, got me on right away, did a pedicure and no-chip manicure in an hour and a half (plus touched up my toenail because I’m clumsy and chipped it before leaving). My nails turned out great and everyone was so nice.
Great staff, they really care for their customers
I have been a customer for nearly 3 years, every 3 weeks except during COVID. At the time I found them I was shopping various nail salons (there are a LOT in the Rockford area!!!) to find what I considered the best FOR ME. I get the powder dip nails and they last beautifully until my next appointment. I recommend you make an appointment because they get extremely busy heading into the weekend.
I’ve only been here twice and both times I have not been disappointed. Everyone is friendly, and they do an amazing job. Definitely my new favorite nail salon.
Wonderful! The equipment was so clean the workers were so kind, we even chatted over a theme park! They were so kind and gentle and overall amazing would come again!!!!
They are always friendly and professional. I love this place. It is very beautiful and relaxing place.
Amazing service with great and amazing staff! Highly recommended when they can work with you for a walk in!
The lady that did my nails had a little challenge because I bite them and they were rather short. These things were still solid 3 weeks later I had to remove them usually they fall off when your nails are short. I was pleasantly surprised.
I loved my experience at the Nail Lounge. My nail tech was Awesome! I will be going back.
My go-to salon. Always do a good job
Always happy with my nails when I leave!
Best nail salon in Machesney Park!!! And Ive officially tried them all. Super clean. Great atmosphere. Super friendly staff. I was there for over and hour getting my nails done. She took her time and wanted to be sure they were perfect!! Love them!! Will be back to this salon only going forward!!
Wonderful, kind, and caring staff. I have been going here for years and they all know me by name. San does the most intricate designs!
I have been going to The Nail Lounge for years! Andy and his staff are great! They strive to give you exactly what you want and have fun in the process! I wish I could give them more than just 5 stars!
Wonderful pedicure. My first.
The service was rushed, and there was a 3.9% fee for using a debit/card card. We left the salon and my manicure started peeling.
Great Atmosphere recommend!!
Always a wonderful job on my nails. The shop is very clean and the staff are excellent!
Tonight is a perfect example as to why I will always be a loyal customer to Andy and his team. I got my nails done on Saturday (no chip manicure) and in between then and that following Monday I picked at my nails and caused one of the nails polish to lift off and I went in to get it fixed, fully expecting to have to pay for it because I caused the issue but once I got out of the chair Andy told me I didn’t have to pay to get the nail fixed and any time I had an issue I could go back at no charge to have it fixed and that is GREAT customer service. I love this place ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Andy and his team always do an amazing job! They work very hard to give the customer what they want. Their teamwork is excellent!
Best pedi Ive had in forever!!!
I was there eating at buffalo wild wings
I love the whole staff there. They do such an amazing job!!!
Love it here, reasonably priced and very talented
They are always very social and kind and the quality is always wonderful
Nice and clean also a fun bunch!!
My favorite place to get my nails done a pedicure and my eyebrows done. Everyone is so kind and professional and the shop is always clean. They always make sure my nails are perfect before I leave out the door. Once you go here youll never want to go anywhere else.
By far one of my favorite salons. I have visited them many times over the last few years and always leave satisfied!
Every worker is super sweet and nice, extremely high quality work for a very fair price. Worker stayed late to perfect mine and my friends nails. And I do mean perfect nails, hand filed to perfection and not a spec of polish out of place. glamorous atmosphere and it doesnt reek of chemicals! Worker even took the time to get to know my friend and I. Night well spent! they have 100% of my business!
First time here!!! They were awesome!!! Mani pedi - they took tons of time to do a great job!! And they offered me wine!! Amazing I will def be back!!! Thank you!!
Only been here twice, both times got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. The guys here do an amazing job. Especially with nail art. It takes about 2 hrs for both services but well worth the wait. I did notice that the second time around I got plain French tips painted on and with the gel when my nails dried, the tips where the white part is was sort of bubbled up.my nail bed was not even and smooth. I paid $27 for the pedicure and $30 for the gel manicure.
Great people, love my nails i get done here. Thank you Andy and team!
Went to this place for the first time today! Love the friendly service. I felt comfortable and welcomed! I recommend this place to anyone thats looking for a nail salon without the feeling of being judged
I love the nail lounge! The atmosphere is very clean and relaxing. The employees are super personable, friendly and make you feel welcomed. Most nail spas try to hurry the process but not the Nail Lounge, they go for quality by taking their time like all nail places should :)
This place is seriously the best! If you want your nails to stay on for longer than a week, than this is the place to go. Mine have lasted over 5 weeks and I am rough on my nails to say the least! The people are very friendly and give you exactly what you are looking for. I HIGHLY recommend them!!
I went there in the beginning of march and the lady that did my nails didnt do the gel right left gaps she took over an hour to do my nails. I brought my sister in and the guy that did hers was done in a half hour and there were no gaps on her nails. Absolutely the worse $50 I have spent.
This was the worst manicure I have ever gotten. 1.5 hours for someone who couldn’t even handle the tools correctly. Filed my nails 4 times through, painted at least 15 strokes of nail polish on each finger each time, was the worst finish of a regular manicure I have ever had. Do not come here unless you are getting fake nails. That technician finished two clients well as I was trying to finish a regular mani at that time. Choose somewhere else
A fun and friendly place. I go here for a pedicure, and always leave feeling relaxed and revitalized. Two thumbs up for sure!
Best place around they always do a perfect job and they are all so friendly! Clean place and great prices!
Great experience, treat customers very kindly, one of most nice looking in area. I got acrylic with coffin shape did excellent job will be returning.
Love this place...just took my daughter for her first pedicure and they added flowers to her toes just for fun...its always a great experience when I go!
I went here saturday and it was the worst nail place i’ve ever been to. the person doing my nails got up many times to do other things while doing my nails. he only put on two layers of nail polish on my nails. some spots looked more colored than others. my nails look clumpy also. it’s monday and one of my nails already fell off without me doing any activities.
Big props to the nail lounge! Customer service is outstanding 🙌🏽 ! I had issues with my nails chipping and I had to come back twice to get them fixed. They never complained about fixing them, and they were very kind! I have been to many nail shops and the techs were rude and unwelcoming. They have a customer for life and my nail tech was hilarious. I appreciated his humor with the day I was having. 😊
I had a great experience at the nail lounge. I thought the cleanliness was 1st class. The hand and leg massage was very soothing and relaxing. I will definitely go back.
This Place is awesome!!! Its clean and the people are friendly and pleasant. Love coming here!!
Went in for a fill, I had dagger tips and asked if they could change the shape to coffin. The guy said yes no problem. I now have 10 fingers all with a different nail tip shape. Some are rounded, some are coffin, some flat with round edges.. very unhappy
Love this place. They are always quick and do a great job
I love Nail Lounge. Theyre so nice and do a great job on nails!
I go every 2 weeks. I love it. Travel 20 minutes to have them done. Ask for Andy or Vu they do a great job!
Absolutely the WORST place Ive ever been as far a the quality of my nails I paid 50$ for Trash work. However everyone seemed friend and it looks legit in there..... idk maybe a off day but Ill never go back
They did very good job on my nails and putting up with my 4year old lol
Great
Pedi was perfect!
My daughter and I love going here! All the staff are good at their job and we always have fun and laugh a lot.
I LIVE THIS PLACE EVERYBODYS SO NICE!!
Worst manicure ever. Older lady did mine this time and it is HIDEOUS. All the nails in my left hand are uneven and all but one on my right hand. No shine on one finger. She broke 2 of my nails so now theyre shorter. And she used the dremel until my nails hurt and I wanted was a no chip. And I did not appreciate her talking about me or my nails in another language. THAT IS JUST RUDE.BUT IF YOU MUST GO THERE REQUEST ANYONE BUT HER!
I have been going for about a year and when the owner does my nails, they are very nice, but lately, he has been busy with the new store. I tried calling, but was told he is busy with construction. Was directed to the website, but you gave to create an account to leave an e-mail. The manager at the 173 location is very nice, but I have been back twice to have lifted and mushspeen nails corrected. Two days later the Polish oesled and 3 other nails lifted. I just want what I paid for. Now I have to start over to find a god nail tech.Deeply saddened and disappointed. Great people.L Cook
Clean, friendly and professional. Will definitely go back!
They dont sanitize their tools. Ive never had fungus in my life and got it immediately after their pedicure.
Want your nails looking great... go see Jackie ..
They are always nice and do great work. I always love my nails!
Fine
Clean, very friendly, great prices. Will definitely be back!
The location is very clean, the staff are professional and they do EXCELLENT work!
I am giving nail lounge 2 stars because i was injured there. My pointer finger hurt on my left hand and i thought it was maybe from the light for gel nails, but it got worse over time. I had the nails on for about 3 weeks before i decided to soak them and remove them at home because the pain became so bad. After the nail released i doscovered an infected sore while filing my nails down they went to far and now i have an infection in my finger. The nail tech i had kept looking away. As long as he was watching what he was doing he did a great job. I loved the design he did and the colors he chose. I asked for a dragonfly and he came up with a beautiful one. But i wont be back. I dont understand why he would continue to put a nail and the acrylic on top of the broke nail. Yes i know your thinking well how did you not notice it. I have bad vision so no i didnt see it and all my nails were warm from filing and what not so i ignored it. He had to have seen it. Its about one third of my finger. The place was clean and everyone was really friendly. I didnt wait but maybe 10 mins. Before they began but ive never before been injured during the application of the nails.
Always the best service.
Lung does amazing free hand designs
They were in a hurry and rushed terrible mani pedi
Wife is very happy here.
