2025-10-11Milani did an amazing job on my Gel X manicure! She took her time and made sure everything looked perfect. I showed her an inspiration photo and she recreated my nails exactly the way I wanted them to look! The salon itself was clean and very comfortable. I felt relaxed the entire time. I also really appreciate that they were able to squeeze me in on a Saturday. I was so happy with the results and will definitely be returning!

2025-08-30Angela and Ken took great care of myself and my brother, Chris! They took a lot of time to perfect their craftsmanship and design and got it exactly as pictured (I asked for a previous customers design from a Google review photo!) I would recommend them to anyone looking to get their names done! They are hard working people looking to provide for their family and also have great craftsmanship and skills! Thank you again, auntie Angela and uncle Ken! You da best! ๐๐คฃ๐๐๐ผโ๏ธ๐ฆ

2025-11-04Went in for the first time based on the great reviews. I was getting married and wanted a nice set (I NEVER GET MANICURES) for the occasion. The owners sister did my nails and she rushed the entire time because she had to pick her son up from school. I asked her to do a second coat of base to my gelx French because the first layer was super streaky. She said it would be fine once the top coat went on, not being familiar with the process I trusted her and continued to trust the process. They were still streaky but it was fine and I left. I went back today to get them removed and to just get a basic manicure done; cleaning up my cuticles and shaping my nails. The woman who did this was super nice. But my nails bed beds were completely ruined. I will not be returning. The picture is the result after my set was taken off.

2025-07-21Loved it! Very clean and cute inside! Pedicure chairs are v comfy, and they did a great job on my toes. For my nails, I like to do fake nails and this was the first time Iโve done GelX after years of doing acrylic. Nail tech did a great job of explaining to me the benefits and walking me through what she was doing! Design turned out amazing!!!

2025-05-31From the moment I stepped into Luxe Nails, I was impressedโthe salon is spotless, beautifully designed, and exudes a calm, vibe. You can tell immediately that they prioritize quality and experience here. But what truly took my visit to the next level was Milani and Angie Milani is incredibleโmeticulous, professional, and so personable. She took her time with every single detail, ensuring my nails were shaped perfectly, the polish was flawlessly applied, and that I was completely happy every step of the way. I appreciated how she listened to exactly what I want. Her precision and care were seriously next level. It didnโt feel rushed or routineโshe treated my appointment like a true pampering session. If you want your nails to look impeccable and feel completely taken care of, ask for Milani and Angie. Luxe Nails is a gem in Des Plaines!
