Edelweiss Nail Salon

I got a great manicure there today. My nails were a mess and she did a GREAT job! They remodeled and it looks very nice.

Do not come here!!! I set up an appointment around a month ago as it is obviously imperative that I get my services done at this date and time. I arrive at the location and it is CLOSED FOR CONSTRUCTION! I did not get a call to at least let me know so I wouldn’t waste my time driving all the way here, and move my schedule around… not all of us are just sitting down picking our noses throughout the day, some people have a schedule!!! I called the place and every single time it goes straight to voicemail. I am so annoyed because of this inconvenience. Very unprofessional and I haven’t even stepped into the place yet! First impressions do last and I hope I’m the only one with this issue with them otherwise good luck keeping your customers.

I tried Edelweiss the first time because of a groupon, but I’ve now come back three times because of the high quality of their manicures and pedicures. Every time my mani has lasted a whole week, and pedis last until they grow out. And they give the best hand and shoulder massages! I’ve never had any problems with scheduling like some of the other reviews mention. I highly recommend Edelweiss!

Back to update on my services. Since my last review, Jamie has since left and Suri has replaced her (as far as doing my nails). At first, she was great… now not so much. When you walk thru the doors, no one says hello until you do. Besides that, I got a mani/​pedi Thursday and my mani started chipping Saturday morning. I won’t be returning. I’m actually gonna try the salon across the street that everyone is raving about. I here they greet ALL customers and will squeeze you in even if they’re booked (unlike Edelweiss). Two thumbs down from me.

Let me preface my review by saying that I was very nervous to try this salon. I had purchased a Groupon for a no-​chip manicure and about a month later, really bad reviews starting showing up on Unilocal about the salon making it very difficult to redeem the Groupon. Because of this, I scheduled my appointment for the first appointment on a Sunday (10:30 am) and didn’t mention the Groupon on the phone. I was the first one in the salon and received great treatment, even when I said that I had a Groupon. I’m not sure of the name of my manicurist, but she was very careful and spent a lot of time on my nails. She even sampled some colors on my nails to help me decide which color to choose. It’s more than a week later and my nails are still looking great. My advice would be to book the first appointment of the day if you have a Groupon and don’t mention it on the phone (unfortunately). The salon is in a very sad looking strip but they did a wonderful job decorating the interior to make it a comfortable space.

Best spa mani: pedi I have ever received. The lady was very professional and clean my nails very well. I am very particular about the cleaning and how the polish is applied and she did a great job! I also asked for an upgrade to a no chip and it was reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

So I waited two weeks and my nails looked perfect. I went back again and will keep going. They do awesome no chip manicures!

I was looking for a new place to go that offered a stone pedicure, in my research this salon came up and there was a Amazon offer for a Stone pedicure and manicure for $ 35 so I bought it. First of all the person was not friendly at all, I cannot stand when employees are laughing and conversing in another language it is so unprofessional. I never got the stone massage in the pedicure, and both the manicure and pedicure took a total of 1hour. The Polish was so thin on my nails it didn’t even last 48 hours. This is the opportunity for businesses to get new customers and if these deals annoy them then they shouldn’t offer them. My only regret is I tipped 20% on the original cost which was $ 70 I would have been pissed if I paid $ 70. I will not return.

I made an apt for a mani/​pedi. When I got there, they had 2 walk ins and told me I had to wait 30 min so they could accommodate the walk ins first. I don’t get it, what was the point of me making an apt? The lady at the counter was rude and didn’t seem to care that I was a very upset customer. I left and will never come back here. Bad customer service!

I wanted to try a closer nail salon to where I live and thought I would give this nail salon a try so I bought a livingsocial deal. I wanted the latest appointment because I work till 5, the person who I spoke to told me they only had 5:30 appointments even though the hours are from 9 – 7 pm… So I was told if I was a little late to the 5:30 it would be ok. Well because of this I booked the mani/​pedi. I arrived to my appointment and then the front desk girl started telling me I should have booked it for 6! The salon had one client when I walked in. They made no efforts to accommodate me for another day. As a matter of fact, when I told the front desk girl, that I would rather get my money back from livingsocial, she agreed! Never coming to this nail salon. I do not recommend it specially if you have bought the livingsocial or groupon deals!

honestly, the best nail salon in Wilmette and the surrounding areas. I love this place, so clean, refreshing… just like going to a spa! One of the only places I go to get my nails done. Thank you!

I’m simply another satisfied customer of Edelweiss Nail Salon. I take my wife there for a pedicure and I have the nerve to sit for one, too (no nail polish, of course). It’s the most relaxing 30 minutes of my day.
The salon is clean and peaceful. The people working there are professional, polite and good at what they do. Every time I’ve called for an appointment with my wife, they take us immediately. All of this and at a good price — what more could I ask for?

I bought a groupon for a no chip mani and pedicure and gave this place a try. After a brief hiccup with redeeming (which turned out ok in the end) I walked away very happy. My pedicure was amazing and my feet look great 2 weeks later. The manicure was meticulous. This is not a quick mani place– they take their time. Though I often frequent another nail place in the area, I will abdolutely return here again, especially for a no chip manicure.
Also my wiggly 3.5 yr old wanted her toes painted. The woman took her time cutting and filing her little piggies and painting to perfection. She wants to go back for a manicure!

This was a very friendly relaxing place to have my pedicure. Being new to the area I used Unilocal to guide my decision. Reviews did not disappoint!

Great salon. I got the Groupon mani pedi. It was an enjoyable experience. The staff was friendly. I’m surprised this place isn’t packed. It’s a hidden gem. The polish lasted and overall a relaxing experience. I recommend it!

What a fantastic job on nails at Edelweiss. I’ve had a couple of mani-pedi’s from the owner of the salon. They lasted more than any other regular mani-​pedi I’ve gotten. The place is clean and new. The massage chairs are THE best.
The extras with your manicure… massages… are wonderful. I am happy to tip over 20% each and every time.

I have enjoyed Edelweiss since they opened. I always get a great looking manicure and pedicure. The staff are lovely women who care for you in a nurturing calming way. My nails always look fantastic. This place is a rare find. I am only writing this review to be fair to them, wish I could keep this secret to myself! JK

I’m just starting to really check reviews of businesses before I spend my hard earned money. I am TIRED of getting poor service or experiencing substandard conditions.
Well, Edelweiss lives up to its 5-​star rating! Jamie did my mani/​pedi and was AWESOME. She took her time on my pedi (felt like other salons just rushed to get through it). My mani was equally as good. Well worth the $ 35 price.
Happy mani/​pedis!

Awesome!!! My husband and I love the mani pedis!!! I love the care they give to my hands and feet! They are very nice and really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable.
I love them!!! I love them!!!
Thank you Edleweiss for the wonderful care you give me and my husband!!!

Wow! LOVE their mani pedis. This is now going to be my go to nail salon. They have the best massage chair I’ve ever sat in. Excellent job on both my manicure and my pedicure. They have plenty of sterilizers for their tools and sanding blocks so you know they care about cleanliness.
They soak your hands in a nice bowl with warm round stones to hold on to — great on a cool day. Loved that while I was getting my manicure they gave me a hot stone massage on my neck and back and a warm towel to sooth my stiff neck! Left feeling great for only $ 35.
I’ll be back again and again.
