WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! MY ACRYLICS STARTED FALLING OFF 2 DAYS AFTER I GOT THEM! Only reason I went was because the place I usually go to is always a little busy so I saw this place that was empty(which now thinking, should’ve been an automatic red flag but at the time I just saw the ladies smile and they looked nice) and thought let me try it. But instead was rushed for no reason since there was no one else even there other then my mom who I went with. I had like two or three people trying to do my mani and pedi at the same time? I’ve never been to a place that does that. The ladies gave attitude and there opinion is the only one that matters I guess because I wanted almond shaped nails to which I got a dirty look and rude comments on how almond shaped are for old people and I need coffin shaped and like I understood but they could’ve said it in a nicer way and I thought “customers were always right” but not in this case. And they didn’t even do the acrylics correctly because some were a little crooked but still noticeable and bumpy and all of them were thick because they didn’t file them down correctly so they were overall awful. So the nails falling off 2 days later weren’t even a surprise or the worst part. I was actually kind of happy they fell off on their own because I didn’t want to have to take them off myself or pay them even more to take them off since everything was already way overpriced. In the end the next time I got my nails done I went back to the more busy place which is across from Ford City Mall called Nail Spa: 4837 W 77th St, Burbank, IL 60459 (which I recommend). They take their time to do everything the customer wants with no dirty looks or rude comments. Read Less

I wanted 10 different colored nails, the nail dude kept complaining how it was gonna be too much work and kept saying how it was gonna be extra money. (But arent I the one paying) when you first walk in they have the tiniest price sign ever and called me and my sister before I could even check the prices. After he tells me the different colors he says its 10$ extra and I ask for the original price and I'm told my nails would be 55$. For no chip and acrylic. I didnt even ask for no chip. My sister got a basic manicure tho she did ask for no chip. She wanted an orange color and it's not even fully coloring her nails. They look sheer and like she did them herself. Not the 40$ they are claiming they are. 95$ all together for a set of mails that would have been about 50$ all together at any other nail salon. Totally not worth the price at all. Read Less

The women that work there have terrible attitudes which I don’t understand cause I’m spending my money.

I would have rather go to my regular nail salon. I got no chip manicure and pedicure for $80 , I don’t mind paying that price but that same night my toe started chipping ! 2 days after the nail polish starts coming off like if it was a sticker on the nail! I did not expect this kind of results for someone who is charging $80 for their service . I know coming in to complain and getting them fixed isn’t not going to satisfy me bc they will deny that their work wasn’t done correctly instead I will no longer come here ! 0 stars for this business !

SAVE YOUR MONEY! My last time every coming to this nail salon. I wanted a pedicure, so I picked the deluxe spa experience for $40. The scrub, hot towels and paraffin wax was all good, BUT SHE FELT THAT SHE COULD SKIP THE BASICS..... cleaning under the Nail, getting the dead skin and cutical area. I had to keep asking her and she would say ok. She waited all the way to the end when my feet was dry to do it. But instead of using the cuticle nippers she used the Nail drill. My toe nails are already thin I had to tell her to stop using it. Then we get to the polish. She tells me because I don’t want no chip and bc it’s white she can’t clean around the Nail. I could have saved $20 and rent to another shop for extremely better service. I will definitely stick to what i know. Never again Chicago ridge. NOPE! Actually 0 stars. Read Less

Horrible service! Paid $40 for a No Chip French Manicure and they didn't take their time to do them nicely. There were parts on my nail that were not fully white and some fibers from the towel they clean their brush with was stuck on my nails. I told them to fix them or to give me a discount. They "fixed" them because they didn't want to give me a discount but they ended up worse. I paid the $40 because I was over it and wanted to leave. Never going back there again! Read Less

I went In for a gel manicure (no chip) an a regular pedicure it costed me $70 which was way over priced especially because they’re so called special was $30 for a gel manicure (I didn’t even have a design) an they’re normal charge is $45 which wouldn’t be a problem if I had a great experience an a fabulous job done. It has been one day an two of my nails have already chipped the paint sucked I had to force the woman to go in again an re-file my nails because they were rough an there is still cuticle that did not get pushed back enough. I have gotten better an more lavish pedicures where they include hot stones an oil massage (FOR FREE) for only $25 an these people charge more an you don’t even get anything with it. Bottom line save your money and do not go here because the other nail salon in the mall they’re gel lasted me 3 weeks without chipping I had to have it taken off because it was so good at lasting an I only paid $45 for a gel manicure an pedicure by them. The only reason I went to this place was because they were so busy an I couldn’t wait a hour. Read Less

Never Go Here!!! After speaking to me rudely, the nail tech quoted a price of 40$ for an acrylic full set with square nails and regular, solvent based, polish. I said no thank you, and rose from the chair, so he quickly says $35 as if I'm too dense to know that's still an overcharge. As I'm leaving the lady at the front desk grabs my arm roughly. I wanted to slap her. How dare you touch me! I can refuse a service if I wish! He had done zero work on my nails! I will tell everyone I know to not visit this salon. Rude and unprofessional!

I should have checked reviews before I went into this place but I was short on time and at the mall already so I figured why not? Bad idea! First off, I wanted a pedi and a full set. While I was getting my pedicure another guy started my full set which I wasn't thrilled about because you need a lot of tools for a full set and the lighting wasn't great so it just felt rushed. My pedicure was okay but she didn't even scrub my feet which I thought was weird.  The guy who was putting on my nails screwed up the shape when he first cut them and I mentioned it to him and he told me not to worry he will fix after he put the gel. He acted like he knew what he was doing. He plastered on the gel very sloppily and proceeded to  file the living hell out of my nails to the point where 3 of my fingers bleed! The shape was still horrible AND there was 4 nails where the acrylic didn't even cover all of my entire real nail and he started to try and file down the side of my real nail to make it even! OMG the pain was so bad and I was so upset I told him to stop and take them off because it looked horrible and he didn't listen to me form the start and now I was the one suffering. I almost wanted to cry I was so frustrated. Another guy came and took over, his name was Boyd and he did FANTASTIC and took off the nails and redid them how I wanted! He is too good for that place and as much as I would want to go back to him- I could never because the place seems so unsanitary and I witnessed a female nail technician being loud and rude as hell to a customer. In addition, it took me almost 2 hours to get a full set because of the first guys screw up and they offered nothing to me for the inconvenience. Read Less

Yelp needs a "0" Star Rating. The Owner/Manager is extremely Rude! Their service is terrible. I paid $75 for a Pedicure, $30, and a no-chip fill-in, $45. One of the female employees attempted my pedicure with 6inch heels and a mini party dress on and left the corners of my toes un-polished. I was theyre last client on Thursday, July 13th for my birthday dinner. My feet were re-polished 3 times by the mini dress woman and her supposed boyfriend (she flirted with him the entire time as he tried to fix her mistakes.) I went back July 14th to receive a full refund as my no-chip polish peeled on three nails. As the day progressed, I had bare nails. I then realized the acrylic was lifting. I was able to pop off each nail. The Owner told me no refund policy and blamed me/my nails for the peel. Her exact words were, "I don't know why it peel. It's yo nail, not me." How about it's the foundation you applied to my perfectly fine natural nails! She shooed me away like I was an insect. I told her she would be hearing from me soon, as a licensee myself, I was baffled by her behavior representing her business. To rate this poor business and service as anything above a 1, your standards for quality must be low! I ONLY came here because they were the only salon I could fine that closed at 9pm. My Friday schedule is way too busy. The Owner told me she did not care that I drove 2 hours in traffic from Skokie for my refund. She offered to fix for free, I said I do not offer second chances, technically it was chance number 5 after they redid everything the night before. If I allowed her to fix it, of course it would be free without a doubt! The dispute ended by me asking her if nails were to peel again, then what? She stated, "Come back. I fix again!" Excuse me, you do not tell your customers to come back, especially since I do not live in the area. You should be providing quality service where the only reason I come back is because the job well-done needs to be refreshed after weeks! Read Less

I got a manicure here a few weeks ago. My service was excellent except for the lady who works there. I usually see her at the front desk. All I got was a simple manicure just to clean up my nails.... make them look a little nicer than what I would do. Nothing fancy. I sat there for twenty minutes and it would not dry. I waited a few more minutes. I told her I was sitting there for now 30 + minutes and it would not dry. There were visible smudges. She preceded to tell me that it wasn't drying because it was regular nail polish and "no one gets that anymore" and that I should have gotten a no chip because there's no drying time. Granted, I could have done a manicure myself. But that is not the point. Millions of people paint their nails every day at their homes. My nail tech came back from a break and questioned why I was still there. She told me she would fix or change the polish and that maybe it was just old. The lady then preceded to tell me again that I should have gotten no chip and that again, "no one use regular polish anymore" and that it was not their responsibility that my manicure was messed up. I get it lady. Like I said, my service was great. But if you're going to treat me like I'm stupid.... GOODBYE. Read Less

Don't spend your money here. I literally walked in and pointed to the service I wanted on their 'menu', a liquid gel full set and pedi. I was then tricked into an upcharge then told that liquid gel is only for natural nails. So why have an option for a full set??? I only chose what was offered on your menu. Plus, the managers attitude was beyond rude. I spent almost $100 for below average work. Lee nails used to be much better. I was a regular and I didn't mind the higher prices because of the service and environment. Now you can't relax cause the rude ass manager is always yelling at customers. Read Less

I walked into this salon at about 5 pm on a Sunday and had the worst experience ever . My regular go to place was all booked so that's why I decided to give this place a try . They told me a no chip manicure was 30$ . With that being said , I assumed that would include them cutting my nails & trimming my cuticles but no , they said if I wanted that it would be an additional 10$ . I was shocked , my usual place (CNN nails ) which cost me 28$ takes care of all of that for me which any other place should as well ! The lady taking care of me was so rude and wasn't making conversation at all and was doing everything so rushed ! I did not leave her a tip & she was mumbling something with her co workers . That is honestly so rude to me ! It is now Wednesday & my nails have already chipped !

Not the best, not the worst. Pedicure was fine, though the tech was a bit rough on my poor pinky toes. But skip the eyebrow waxing, I have done a better job with a Sally waxing kit from Walgreens. It's a bit dark in the waxing room to see what was missed, but a trip to the bathroom showed that she completely skipped the outer edge. top, bottom and in between were done, so I guess I'll just clean it up myself. not impressed though for $40, probably will look for another spa.

First of all, I came here thinking it would be worth my money. Not only was the manicure a couple bucks more expensive than where I usually go, but the service was beyond awful. As soon as I entered this place, workers were just hanging out all over the place. They did not treat me with a smile and sat me around like if I was a meaningless customer. I put that aside and decided to continue and let the nails do the talking. The lady who was doing my nails was so rough. She rushed through my manicure and there were no clients waiting. I chose a wine red color and it looked good while I was getting them done. I tipped $5 but then as I got out of the light in this place, I realized she had painted my nails so fast, you could see the layers of polish near my cuticles. The nail polish was so uneven and it looked like a 5-year-old had just painted my nails. Expected to bring my mom here since it's close to home but I will never step foot in that establishment ever again! If I could give negative stars, I would. Horrible customer service. Don't waste your money at this place. Read Less

I went and got my eyelashes done 2 weeks ago. The lady that did my lashes, she did the most horrible job ever. If I could give her no stars, I would do just that. I told her & the owner I was not happy with my lashes, they both didn't seem to care, why would they, after they received my money, and by the way, they ask you to pay before services are rendered. Who does that? A nail salon that doesn't do good work, that's who. Every nail salon that I've been to you don't have to pay until they're finish, not before. And they have the nerve to charge $40.00 to get your eyelashes done. It's disgraceful. I want to tell every lady out here, if you're thinking about going to Lee Nails to get your eyelashes done, please don't, you will truly regret it. I advise you to definitely spend your hard earned money else where, not with Lee Nails. They are truly in my opinion the worst nail salon ever!!!! Read Less

After my favorite nail place was closed for the night, I decided to give Lee Nails a try. BIG MISTAKE!! These people are insanely PUSHY!! I walked in to get a simple mani/pedi. The woman kept telling me how amazing no-chip is and it will last longer. I found a color I liked and ended up going with the no-chip. (Also declining the eyebrow waxing she offered me numerous times.) It was near closing time, so they were rushing everything. It was the complete opposite of relaxing!! There was a girl doing my nails and my toes at the same time! Before they painted my finger nails, I told the woman to take my debit card so I could pay without having to dig through my wallet after. She then told me she had already shut down the cash register and I needed to use the ATM and withdraw my cash that way. Not to mention, I was the ONLY one in the salon. Why would she shut down the register- knowing I still had to pay? BECAUSE THEY CHARGE AN ATM FEE!!! They also only accept cash tips.

WISH I COULD GIVE ZERO STARS!! This is by far THE WORST nail salon I have ever been to. I've been getting my nails done for at least 10 years & I have NEVER in my life been treated so poorly! They double charged for everything! They charged my daughter 15 extra because the shade she picked was light & they had to do an additional coat. They charged me 85 dollars for a pedicure! 85?! Then at the end they tell me I have to pay cash because she already "shut the Internet down" what does that even mean?? But IRONICALLY they had an ATM right there for me to get charged TWO fees because it only let's u take 200 at a time and my RIDICULOUS bill was 240! For what??? I have never paid that much at any nail salon ever! Then I get home and notice my toes don't even match my nails, they used the wrong color on them and my nails needed to come off which I told them in the beginning when I got there that I needed a full new set and they refused to do it and just did another fill in because they said they didn't have time... ummmmm what?! They treated me as if I was taking up too much of their time already & made me feel like I had to apologize for doing it, it was insane. There was another girl screaming at them at the front desk that she will never come back there again when I was getting my pedicure too...  now I see why. She was saying they're stealing her money. Probably that ATM thing in the front that they are making fees off of. You can tell it's an Asian company that owns the machine when using it. I will NEVER go back here again!! Read Less

I got a pedicure and a no chip "mani" ..My pedicure was done so fast I couldn't believe she was done, I ask her is that was it and she didn't understand what I was trying to tell her so I just walked away.. Then when I went to get my "mani" to my surprise if I wanted a him to put me hand in some soapy water and actually do a manicure it was going to be an additional $10??!!!! I didn't understand how can you tell me you are going to charge me $30 for a no chip manicure and then ask me for more money???!!! So I told him I was not going to pay more for something I had already payed for, so what he did is just shape my nails and paint over them just like that he call it a change of color and he dare to call it a manicure!!???? As I was leaving that place they gave me a receipts and told me that if my nails chip before a week to come back and they will fix it for me?? This was a big warning for me because I have been to many nail salons and they have never told me this before then again I have never had this experience before... With in two days one of my nails chipped and then I Realized why she had told me that. Please don't waste your time or money on this place... Read Less

I went here since it was one of the only nails spas open in the area after 8pm. The lady who did my fill in did it so fast she left it all bumpy and uneven. I was so happy at first since they had this holographic nail polish that I've been wanting to try. It looked so horrible so I told the lady to please redo them since they are bumpy she did not seem to understand what I was trying to tell her. So she kept taking the nail polish remover and taking off the polish and I kept telling her no she has to buff them. Long story short she never fixed my nails bc she seemed to think they looked ok. On top of doing a shitty job they are way over priced! No stars!! Read Less

I should've read the reviews before hand but oh well the damage is done. I came in for a mani and Pedi. I'm not from Chicago but I live here now so this is my first time getting my nails done since living here. I normally bring my own nail polish but I forgot this time so I picked out my polish and was seated in the pedicure area. The pedicure was nice. I hated that I was hassled about getting a no chip mani/pedi when I had already declined. I got an overlay and my nails were pretty long excerpt for 3 so I asked for tips to be put on those 3. They kept asking me did I want gel and I repeatedly said no and they felt obliged to tell me gel was better. I kept saying no. The lady told me an overlay was more and I've never heard of an overlay being more. As long as I've been getting my nails done an overlay was always cheaper but maybe it's an Midwest/up north thing since I'm from the south. By the time the lady finished with my nails she filed them way too low. Lower than I've ever had and they look like nubs. My nails are ruined for my birthday. And my total came out being $70 dollars.

If you are looking for a quick fill in or color change, they are fast ill give them that, however they have very minimal color options, there are always people in there yelling, and they don't have a price chart so I pay something different every time I go. I also don't like that they don't massage your hands when you are done, I feel like I pay 50$ for a fill in and no chip color change I should get some lotion lol. The only reason I have gone back there is because it's convenient that's it in the mall. And also a lady, who I assume is the owner, is yelling at the employees all the time to the point that their hands are shaking. Enter at your own risk. Read Less

Definitely kicking myself for not reading these reviews prior to getting my nails done here and for cheating on my favorite nail salon. I was in the area and needed a mani/pedi before my vacation. I decided to give this salon a try since it looks nice and didn't have time to make it to my favorite place. First, the pricing was confusing right from the get go. I paid $48 was told i was getting a no chip mani with regular pedi but when the manicure started I realized this was NOT a no chip and when I brought it up they said I paid for a regular mani and pedi. First of all, this price is OUTRAGEOUS! Anyone who gets there nails done would know this.I didn't fuss about this I just said ehh OK well never coming back here again either way so whatever. Then when my nails were drying I noticed a few spots that needed to be re-done. When I told the girl she acted like she didn't see what spots I was talking about (so rude!) and then when she finally "saw it" she said "I will just put clear nail polish because its no big deal" No big deal? No, it's not a big deal if I had painted them myself but I paid $48 and don't want to have paintless spots!! Still I just let it go because at this point I just wanted to get out of there!I called the next day to speak to a manager and was told no manger works there. Worst worst worst place. Please save your money and don't come here. **For the girl who did my pedicure who did an amazing job: I hope you get a job elsewhere as you do not deserve bad reviews. Read Less

I was given a gift certificate for this place, and I couldn't let it go to waste.  I had never been before, so I read the reviews before heading out, and I was terrified! Not a single good review!  Oh we'll, no loss if it truly sucks. So I walk in for my mani/pedi with very low expectations. I was immediately seated and asked if I wanted anything to drink. I declined. Jimmy did my pedicure, and it was wonderful!!!!!!  I got the delux for $40, and I could have fallen asleep in the chair. It was great, and Jimy was very pleasant.  Next I was seated for my no-chip and again asked if I'd like anything to drink. I don't know the mans name who did my manicure, but he was super nice. We actually had a great conversation during the whole manicure. I'm not a chatty person at all, but he was so friendly (and I understood every word he said).  Overall, I had a lovely experience. I think the key is to go early in the morning while it's quiet. It's a little pricey, but we'll worth it. I can't wait to get another pedicure! Read Less

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! MY ACRYLICS STARTED FALLING OFF 2 DAYS AFTER I GOT THEM! Only reason I went was because the place I usually go to is always a little busy so I saw this place that was empty(which now thinking, should’ve been an automatic red flag but at the time I just saw the ladies smile and they looked nice) and thought let me try it. But instead was rushed for no reason since there was no one else even there other then my mom who I went with. I had like two or three people trying to do my mani and pedi at the same time? I’ve never been to a place that does that. The ladies gave attitude and there opinion is the only one that matters I guess because I wanted almond shaped nails to which I got a dirty look and rude comments on how almond shaped are for old people and I need coffin shaped and like I understood but they could’ve said it in a nicer way and I thought “customers were always right” but not in this case. And they didn’t even do the acrylics correctly because some were a little crooked but still noticeable and bumpy and all of them were thick because they didn’t file them down correctly so they were overall awful. So the nails falling off 2 days later weren’t even a surprise or the worst part. I was actually kind of happy they fell off on their own because I didn’t want to have to take them off myself or pay them even more to take them off since everything was already way overpriced. In the end the next time I got my nails done I went back to the more busy place which is across from Ford City Mall called Nail Spa: 4837 W 77th St, Burbank, IL 60459 (which I recommend). They take their time to do everything the customer wants with no dirty looks or rude comments. Read Less

I wanted 10 different colored nails, the nail dude kept complaining how it was gonna be too much work and kept saying how it was gonna be extra money. (But arent I the one paying) when you first walk in they have the tiniest price sign ever and called me and my sister before I could even check the prices. After he tells me the different colors he says its 10$ extra and I ask for the original price and I'm told my nails would be 55$. For no chip and acrylic. I didnt even ask for no chip. My sister got a basic manicure tho she did ask for no chip. She wanted an orange color and it's not even fully coloring her nails. They look sheer and like she did them herself. Not the 40$ they are claiming they are. 95$ all together for a set of mails that would have been about 50$ all together at any other nail salon. Totally not worth the price at all. Read Less

SAVE YOUR MONEY! My last time every coming to this nail salon. I wanted a pedicure, so I picked the deluxe spa experience for $40. The scrub, hot towels and paraffin wax was all good, BUT SHE FELT THAT SHE COULD SKIP THE BASICS..... cleaning under the Nail, getting the dead skin and cutical area. I had to keep asking her and she would say ok. She waited all the way to the end when my feet was dry to do it. But instead of using the cuticle nippers she used the Nail drill. My toe nails are already thin I had to tell her to stop using it. Then we get to the polish. She tells me because I don’t want no chip and bc it’s white she can’t clean around the Nail. I could have saved $20 and rent to another shop for extremely better service. I will definitely stick to what i know. Never again Chicago ridge. NOPE! Actually 0 stars. Read Less

It has been one day an two of my nails have already chipped the paint sucked I had to force the woman to go in again an re-file my nails because they were rough an there is still cuticle that did not get pushed back enough. I have gotten better an more lavish pedicures where they include hot stones an oil massage (FOR FREE) for only $25 an these people charge more an you don’t even get anything with it. Bottom line save your money and do not go here because the other nail salon in the mall they’re gel lasted me 3 weeks without chipping I had to have it taken off because it was so good at lasting an I only paid $45 for a gel manicure an pedicure by them.

I should have checked reviews before I went into this place but I was short on time and at the mall already so I figured why not? Bad idea! First off, I wanted a pedi and a full set. While I was getting my pedicure another guy started my full set which I wasn't thrilled about because you need a lot of tools for a full set and the lighting wasn't great so it just felt rushed. My pedicure was okay but she didn't even scrub my feet which I thought was weird.  The guy who was putting on my nails screwed up the shape when he first cut them and I mentioned it to him and he told me not to worry he will fix after he put the gel. He acted like he knew what he was doing. He plastered on the gel very sloppily and proceeded to  file the living hell out of my nails to the point where 3 of my fingers bleed! The shape was still horrible AND there was 4 nails where the acrylic didn't even cover all of my entire real nail and he started to try and file down the side of my real nail to make it even! OMG the pain was so bad and I was so upset I told him to stop and take them off because it looked horrible and he didn't listen to me form the start and now I was the one suffering. I almost wanted to cry I was so frustrated. Another guy came and took over, his name was Boyd and he did FANTASTIC and took off the nails and redid them how I wanted! He is too good for that place and as much as I would want to go back to him- I could never because the place seems so unsanitary and I witnessed a female nail technician being loud and rude as hell to a customer. In addition, it took me almost 2 hours to get a full set because of the first guys screw up and they offered nothing to me for the inconvenience. Read Less

Yelp needs a "0" Star Rating. The Owner/Manager is extremely Rude! Their service is terrible. I paid $75 for a Pedicure, $30, and a no-chip fill-in, $45. One of the female employees attempted my pedicure with 6inch heels and a mini party dress on and left the corners of my toes un-polished. I was theyre last client on Thursday, July 13th for my birthday dinner. My feet were re-polished 3 times by the mini dress woman and her supposed boyfriend (she flirted with him the entire time as he tried to fix her mistakes.) I went back July 14th to receive a full refund as my no-chip polish peeled on three nails. As the day progressed, I had bare nails. I then realized the acrylic was lifting. I was able to pop off each nail. The Owner told me no refund policy and blamed me/my nails for the peel. Her exact words were, "I don't know why it peel. It's yo nail, not me." How about it's the foundation you applied to my perfectly fine natural nails! She shooed me away like I was an insect. I told her she would be hearing from me soon, as a licensee myself, I was baffled by her behavior representing her business. To rate this poor business and service as anything above a 1, your standards for quality must be low! I ONLY came here because they were the only salon I could fine that closed at 9pm. My Friday schedule is way too busy. The Owner told me she did not care that I drove 2 hours in traffic from Skokie for my refund. She offered to fix for free, I said I do not offer second chances, technically it was chance number 5 after they redid everything the night before. If I allowed her to fix it, of course it would be free without a doubt! The dispute ended by me asking her if nails were to peel again, then what? She stated, "Come back. I fix again!" Excuse me, you do not tell your customers to come back, especially since I do not live in the area. You should be providing quality service where the only reason I come back is because the job well-done needs to be refreshed after weeks! Read Less

All I got was a simple manicure just to clean up my nails.... make them look a little nicer than what I would do. Nothing fancy. I sat there for twenty minutes and it would not dry. I waited a few more minutes. I told her I was sitting there for now 30 + minutes and it would not dry. There were visible smudges. She preceded to tell me that it wasn't drying because it was regular nail polish and "no one gets that anymore" and that I should have gotten a no chip because there's no drying time. Granted, I could have done a manicure myself. But that is not the point. Millions of people paint their nails every day at their homes. My nail tech came back from a break and questioned why I was still there. She told me she would fix or change the polish and that maybe it was just old. The lady then preceded to tell me again that I should have gotten no chip and that again, "no one use regular polish anymore" and that it was not their responsibility that my manicure was messed up. I get it lady. Like I said, my service was great. But if you're going to treat me like I'm stupid.... GOODBYE. Read Less

Don't spend your money here. I literally walked in and pointed to the service I wanted on their 'menu', a liquid gel full set and pedi. I was then tricked into an upcharge then told that liquid gel is only for natural nails. So why have an option for a full set??? I only chose what was offered on your menu. Plus, the managers attitude was beyond rude. I spent almost $100 for below average work. Lee nails used to be much better. I was a regular and I didn't mind the higher prices because of the service and environment. Now you can't relax cause the rude ass manager is always yelling at customers. Read Less

I walked into this salon at about 5 pm on a Sunday and had the worst experience ever . My regular go to place was all booked so that's why I decided to give this place a try . They told me a no chip manicure was 30$ . With that being said , I assumed that would include them cutting my nails & trimming my cuticles but no , they said if I wanted that it would be an additional 10$ . I was shocked , my usual place (CNN nails ) which cost me 28$ takes care of all of that for me which any other place should as well ! The lady taking care of me was so rude and wasn't making conversation at all and was doing everything so rushed ! I did not leave her a tip & she was mumbling something with her co workers . That is honestly so rude to me ! It is now Wednesday & my nails have already chipped ! Do yourself a favor and yelp some reviews before trying a place out for the first time , that's a mistake I made ! Read Less

Not the best, not the worst. Pedicure was fine, though the tech was a bit rough on my poor pinky toes. But skip the eyebrow waxing, I have done a better job with a Sally waxing kit from Walgreens. It's a bit dark in the waxing room to see what was missed, but a trip to the bathroom showed that she completely skipped the outer edge. top, bottom and in between were done, so I guess I'll just clean it up myself. not impressed though for $40, probably will look for another spa.

First of all, I came here thinking it would be worth my money. Not only was the manicure a couple bucks more expensive than where I usually go, but the service was beyond awful. As soon as I entered this place, workers were just hanging out all over the place. They did not treat me with a smile and sat me around like if I was a meaningless customer. I put that aside and decided to continue and let the nails do the talking. The lady who was doing my nails was so rough. She rushed through my manicure and there were no clients waiting. I chose a wine red color and it looked good while I was getting them done. I tipped $5 but then as I got out of the light in this place, I realized she had painted my nails so fast, you could see the layers of polish near my cuticles. The nail polish was so uneven and it looked like a 5-year-old had just painted my nails. Expected to bring my mom here since it's close to home but I will never step foot in that establishment ever again! If I could give negative stars, I would. Horrible customer service. Don't waste your money at this place. Read Less

I went and got my eyelashes done 2 weeks ago. The lady that did my lashes, she did the most horrible job ever. If I could give her no stars, I would do just that. I told her & the owner I was not happy with my lashes, they both didn't seem to care, why would they, after they received my money, and by the way, they ask you to pay before services are rendered. Who does that? A nail salon that doesn't do good work, that's who. Every nail salon that I've been to you don't have to pay until they're finish, not before. And they have the nerve to charge $40.00 to get your eyelashes done. It's disgraceful. I want to tell every lady out here, if you're thinking about going to Lee Nails to get your eyelashes done, please don't, you will truly regret it. I advise you to definitely spend your hard earned money else where, not with Lee Nails. They are truly in my opinion the worst nail salon ever!!!! Read Less

After my favorite nail place was closed for the night, I decided to give Lee Nails a try. BIG MISTAKE!! These people are insanely PUSHY!! I walked in to get a simple mani/pedi. The woman kept telling me how amazing no-chip is and it will last longer. I found a color I liked and ended up going with the no-chip. (Also declining the eyebrow waxing she offered me numerous times.) It was near closing time, so they were rushing everything. It was the complete opposite of relaxing!! There was a girl doing my nails and my toes at the same time! Before they painted my finger nails, I told the woman to take my debit card so I could pay without having to dig through my wallet after. She then told me she had already shut down the cash register and I needed to use the ATM and withdraw my cash that way. Not to mention, I was the ONLY one in the salon. Why would she shut down the register- knowing I still had to pay? BECAUSE THEY CHARGE AN ATM FEE!!! They also only accept cash tips. I will NEVER be returning to Lee Nails after they pulled this b.s.. I do NOT reccomend at all. Read Less

WISH I COULD GIVE ZERO STARS!! This is by far THE WORST nail salon I have ever been to. I've been getting my nails done for at least 10 years & I have NEVER in my life been treated so poorly! They double charged for everything! They charged my daughter 15 extra because the shade she picked was light & they had to do an additional coat. They charged me 85 dollars for a pedicure! 85?! Then at the end they tell me I have to pay cash because she already "shut the Internet down" what does that even mean?? But IRONICALLY they had an ATM right there for me to get charged TWO fees because it only let's u take 200 at a time and my RIDICULOUS bill was 240! For what??? I have never paid that much at any nail salon ever! Then I get home and notice my toes don't even match my nails, they used the wrong color on them and my nails needed to come off which I told them in the beginning when I got there that I needed a full new set and they refused to do it and just did another fill in because they said they didn't have time... ummmmm what?! They treated me as if I was taking up too much of their time already & made me feel like I had to apologize for doing it, it was insane. There was another girl screaming at them at the front desk that she will never come back there again when I was getting my pedicure too...  now I see why. She was saying they're stealing her money. Probably that ATM thing in the front that they are making fees off of. You can tell it's an Asian company that owns the machine when using it. I will NEVER go back here again!! Read Less

I went here since it was one of the only nails spas open in the area after 8pm. The lady who did my fill in did it so fast she left it all bumpy and uneven. I was so happy at first since they had this holographic nail polish that I've been wanting to try. It looked so horrible so I told the lady to please redo them since they are bumpy she did not seem to understand what I was trying to tell her.

I should've read the reviews before hand but oh well the damage is done. I came in for a mani and Pedi. I'm not from Chicago but I live here now so this is my first time getting my nails done since living here. I normally bring my own nail polish but I forgot this time so I picked out my polish and was seated in the pedicure area. The pedicure was nice. I hated that I was hassled about getting a no chip mani/pedi when I had already declined. I got an overlay and my nails were pretty long excerpt for 3 so I asked for tips to be put on those 3. They kept asking me did I want gel and I repeatedly said no and they felt obliged to tell me gel was better. I kept saying no. The lady told me an overlay was more and I've never heard of an overlay being more. As long as I've been getting my nails done an overlay was always cheaper but maybe it's an Midwest/up north thing since I'm from the south. By the time the lady finished with my nails she filed them way too low. Lower than I've ever had and they look like nubs. My nails are ruined for my birthday. And my total came out being $70 dollars.

Definitely kicking myself for not reading these reviews prior to getting my nails done here and for cheating on my favorite nail salon. I was in the area and needed a mani/pedi before my vacation. I decided to give this salon a try since it looks nice and didn't have time to make it to my favorite place. First, the pricing was confusing right from the get go. I paid $48 was told i was getting a no chip mani with regular pedi but when the manicure started I realized this was NOT a no chip and when I brought it up they said I paid for a regular mani and pedi. First of all, this price is OUTRAGEOUS! Anyone who gets there nails done would know this.I didn't fuss about this I just said ehh OK well never coming back here again either way so whatever. Then when my nails were drying I noticed a few spots that needed to be re-done. When I told the girl she acted like she didn't see what spots I was talking about (so rude!) and then when she finally "saw it" she said "I will just put clear nail polish because its no big deal" No big deal? No, it's not a big deal if I had painted them myself but I paid $48 and don't want to have paintless spots!! Still I just let it go because at this point I just wanted to get out of there!I called the next day to speak to a manager and was told no manger works there. Worst worst worst place.

I was given a gift certificate for this place, and I couldn't let it go to waste.  I had never been before, so I read the reviews before heading out, and I was terrified! Not a single good review!  Oh we'll, no loss if it truly sucks. So I walk in for my mani/pedi with very low expectations. I was immediately seated and asked if I wanted anything to drink. I declined. Jimmy did my pedicure, and it was wonderful!!!!!!  I got the delux for $40, and I could have fallen asleep in the chair. It was great, and Jimy was very pleasant.  Next I was seated for my no-chip and again asked if I'd like anything to drink. I don't know the mans name who did my manicure, but he was super nice. We actually had a great conversation during the whole manicure. I'm not a chatty person at all, but he was so friendly (and I understood every word he said).  Overall, I had a lovely experience. I think the key is to go early in the morning while it's quiet. It's a little pricey, but we'll worth it. I can't wait to get another pedicure! Read Less
