Happy Nails

I’ve never had a regular manicure that had lasted me a whole week, but I got one from Happy Nails! My manicurist was great, she took her time on my cuticles and polished the tip of my nails. I was so pleased and impressed. I am defiantly going back there, it is going to be my regular spot my mani and pedi now! The shop was very cute and clean, staffs were very friendly. They take walk-​ins, I scheduled an appointment, they took care of me right after I got there!

I was recommended to come here by a friend. They do a phenomenal job. I had gotten gel nails and wasn’t able to come in again til 3 weeks for my refill and those nails stayed put without falling off. My second visit was great she gave me the shape and length i wanted. I’m so excited I have a new favorite nail salon. I look forward to trying the pedi service!

This nail salon is located close to my apartment and is pretty cheap for the area. I’ve never had a bad experience there and I go in for either an acrylic full set or fill in. They have a lot of Essie and OPI colors.
I would recommend to a friend and would definitely return! Grab a loyalty card for $ 5 off your 6^th visit!

I have been coming to Happy Nails for years. Their quality and service is impeccable. I’ve never had a complaint.

A fun and friendly place to get my nails done. The No chip last forever and they have huge collection of colors. Love love it

This was my first time here, and I’m really happy with my pedicure. I’m not the biggest fan of manis and pedis because at other places I’ve had bad experiences with cuticle damage and over-​filing.
My technician was excellent — nothing hurt or tickled too much, she was really responsive to my needs. The pedicure looks great, and she definitely cleaned up my cuticles and dry skin, but no damage or peeling. Plus it’s a great price — look on the website. The basic pedicure included a leg scrub and a short foot massage. Plus they have massaging chairs :)
I am so so so happy! I will be going back!
(The day that I went, there was a little bit of a wait, but my friend and I were able to get chairs next to each other within 10 minutes of arriving, and we didn’t have an appointment. They accept credit cards but bring cash for tip.)

This has been my go to nail spot but after today I might change that up. Arrived at 3:00pm for a pedi and fill in. Promptly assigned me to my seat and had me soak my feet in the water for 30mins!!! By the time the nail tech came to me my feet looked like prunes. She rushed through the pedi then told me I had to wait for my fill in. There was a gentlemen who arrived after me and had his mani pedi done right away.
More customers kept coming in and they took care of them right away and had me waiting when I’ve been here for already an hour and half. FYI guys, take care of the people who are there first.

I absolutely love this place! They go above and beyond to make the customer happy. Everyone there is a great nail tech and super friendly! I always use Trang who is super!!! I live by the south loop and commute without hesitation. Happy nails make happy customers!!! See you in two weeks Trang!!! ;)

After lots of trial and error at different salons, I’ve found my favorite salon in the city! Their no chips are perfect and honestly last 3 – 4 weeks. Amazing and friendly staff make it a great experience every time. Highly recommend!

After years of getting my nails done every couple weeks for years, Happy Nails became my favorite nail salon after the first visit! Tran is AMAZING! She takes her time and always does a great job — and she’s fun to chat with which is a huge plus! Jessi and the entire staff are always sweet and very accommodating. 5 star visit every time!

I had a great experience here. I was a bit nervous to have my first man-​pedicure. However, the staff were all super friendly and made me feel very welcome. I highly recommend coming here!

This place is the best! They have so many colors (who could know there were so many shades of grey?). The staff is super nice, they make you feel welcome and at ease. And the manicure are perf! My no chip lasted 2 weeks without any scratch. Love it here!

I haven’t been here for over a year and I just came in because the 2 by my house were booked and I had a nail emergency — lots of badly chipped nails and couple of broken ones.
I bled when I got my pedicure and I rarely ever get cut but no biggie. I took 3 stars off because people were coming in and they kept accepting them which is fine but this lead to my nail tech hurrying my service. I didn’t get a foot or hand massage with my mani-​pedi. There were also a lot of bubbles/​bumps in my mani/​pedi.
I understand that the more customers you take in, the more money/​tip you get but please give your best service to the one that you are currently servicing.
I also do not like the fact that they up-​sell. My nail tech kept pushing me for a no-​chip and I told her no 5 times. And as I was drying my nails, another tech asked me if I wanted a wax. Seriously?
I don’t think I will come back anytime soon. I would have to have a MAJOR nail emergency.

Well I can say that I left Happy Nails extremely happy! I can only speak for the manicure as I have never been here before today but Jeffery was great! He did amazing nail art and I can’t wait to come back with a new design for him to try. I also liked that they were able to squeeze me in with only a few hours notice which isn’t always the case with most salons in the area especially on a Friday. I will definitely be going back!

This used to be my go to spot but then I moved to the burbs. I tried a few different places, but I’d rather just do the drive to the city and get them done here. My favorite nail techs aren’t here anymore but Navy did a great job today with my Jack Skellington themed nails!

I happened by this place after trying several different salons in the city. I have been looking for a place where the no chip actually stays for more than a week. This place is wonderful my mani pedis stay forever!!! I love this place

This is my go to place in the city! I’ve been coming here for four years and won’t go anywhere else for a mani pedi. They have a huge selection of polishes for regular and no chip mani pedis. It really is the most that I’ve seen compared to other salons. I love that I can walk in or make an appointment and been seen most of the time. Of course during busy hours it can be a little harder. I’ve seen people come in with wine and enjoy time with their best friends here. They have lovely massage chairs that you can sink into while getting a pedicure. There are a few technicians that are amazing and that keep me coming back. However, I gave this just four stars because some of my experiences here have been less than awesome. I tend to want to stick with the women to do nails just because they’ve done them to my liking. They are also more approachable to me and allow me to give some input or feedback while they are working on my nails. I went on Sunday with a friend of mine and she loved coming here. Lastly, they have a card that gets stamped on every visit. You can get five dollars off on your fifth visit! #love

I got a pedicure here on ⁷⁄₂₈. The next morning I woke up and my foot felt uncomfortable but I didn’t pay it much attention. By Thursday ⁷⁄₃₀ my foot was swollen so big that I could not wear a shoe. Missed a day of work to go to urgent care and found out that this nail salon caused me to get cellulitis. What a painful and awful experience it was all because of a pedicure. I would not come to this place again even if they paid me to. My advice is to be very wary.

Michael is the best, Rebecca my 2^nd favorite… my acrylic nails with no chip, not only look beautiful… They are hard as nails!
*ps: try out «I got the blues for red»
*also they have a 14day no chip policy.

Rebecca gave me the best no chip I have ever had in my life today, no exaggeration. This girl has serious talent. She’s a good color picker too!!! Already made my next appointment!!!
