Cnn Nails

I personally love this place. I have tried many locations and I always come back to CNN. They could be pushy on some of there products but they are a business so I don’t let it bother me. The price is right and the women that take care of me always do a great job. I cant complain! my only recommendation would be that they expand their space, its always pretty busy.

This place is awesome… this place demonstrates that great big things come in small packages. I have traveled far north and far south looking for excellence… Here it is. I had come in and requested a fresh full set which required the removal of the old set. Now i am not new to how tedious this process is and painful if u dont have a tech soak them off. But i went in fully expecting pain and a slight attitude from the tech since i also needed nail art design and crystal gems appliqué. Yes i came in with a list of todos. I was greeted so very unexpectedly gracious when i entered the salon with a nice hello and papertowel since i was raining… i appreciated that. I picked my color and was immediately seated and began being serviced by the tech. Now im not sure why people assume people of different cultural backgrounds are always talking about them when they begin a conversation in an unfamiliar language in your presence but even though i knew she WAS struggling trying to remove the old set of nails, she was the most patient tender technician i ever had the pleasure of being serviced by. From the very moment i knew i was in the right place and she deserved a great tip just based on the removal process. She was fast efficient and careful and her skills were evident in each stage of process. I am over and beyond pleased. Beyond satisfaction. She deserved every bit of that $ 20 tip. QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY…

This is not the fanciest place in the world and it can indeed get busy, but the price is right, they have a ton of no-​chip colors, and as others have said, they do such a great job with the nail art, that it’s worth waiting for. My no-​chip nails grow out before they chip and I’ve gotten lots of compliments. I’m not always in the mood for a pedicure, but if I am, I’ll come here. They do a great job turning my hooves back into human feet.

Yes-​they are always busy, but my no chip lasts three weeks with no lifting or peeling. The quality of work is worth the wait. It gets pretty packed. Walk ins only! Love their deluxe pedicure.

I dislike the fact that the man in charge of the salon asks «did you give a tip?» That is extremely rude and it is the customer’s choice whether or not to give one. They do a fast and good job on nails.

Love this place! They always do a great job and check every detail. Other salons I went to didn’t care about you skin around your nails and did sloppy job.

I had my nails done here for my wedding. My matron of honor told me to come here because this is her usual location. I had no idea what to have done for the big day because my dress had a lot of color to it that I wanted my nails to compliment instead of being just white. I showed her a picture of the dress & told her to do whatever she felt would compliment it nicely. I received compliments on my nails all night long!!! I seriously couldn’t be happier with the job she did!!!

I have been here a few times and the first two where kinda of rude but lately they have been so nice, don’t know if it’s because they have seen me more but every time I come I try to see the same woman she is so nice and likes to take her time with you. She will always ask if you are ok or need something Yes she try’s to sell me up on things but that is part of there job. I will keep coming here as long as she is here can’t remember her name.

I came here on a Sunday morning because everything else near me was closed. They are inexpensive so I guess, you get what you pay for. It’s not the cleanest, management can be rude to not only their customers but their staff as well. They are pretty persistent with trying to sell u every product on their list and the jobs themselves can either be great or meh, depending who you get. The wait here is pretty ridiculous as well so come early when it won’t be busy.

Simply satisfied with their art for nails. This is the the spot to go to on the south side.

1^st time customer, loved their work but not the prices or the wait, I suppose they’re packed because they do an awesome job with nail designs. I will try them out again and will update review. But if you have time, give them a try just be prepared to wait. Who knows the wait just might be worth it, mine was.

Love this place yes it gets packed but keep in mind for the great value and good job they do that is why they get lots of people would recommend to everyone LILY is the best she is always on point with my no chip nail designs I am in heaven when it comes to her work never had disappointed me

This place is «meh.» Not the most sanitary and DEFINITELY not the best customer service. If you can go somewhere else, I suggest you do so because this place isn’t really worth the visit, especially with their ridiculously long waits.
I got an acrylic full set and they layered it on WAY too thick. I also got a pedicure which was okay – I liked the hot towels, though.
What I really disliked though was how the owner pressured me into giving a tip! I was going to give one, there’s no need to remind your customers. They also lost my OPI nail polish thinking it was theirs.
So overall, 3 stars, just ’cause my nails look cute.

Always the best results of gel application and designs. Note Thursday thru Sat are pretty hectic busy days so make sure you pick a slow day or arrive early on a busy day. Open Sundays at 11:15 am, best day to go. Staff is nice and friendly. Get different designs every time, the stones lasted 3 weeks as well as the no chip. Satisfied customer

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER !!!
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS NAIL SALON
DON’T DESERVE NO STAR AT ALL !
I’ve been coming to this place for over 8 years already and today for the first time this lady from the pedicure area was really rude and mean & the way i wasnt greetting like i usually get I was very upset by the way she was acting all moody and pisst about it for no reason I personally told her I was not going to make her do my pedicure if she didn’t wanted to so I stand up from the ped chair put back my shoes on & told her manager the situation what happened how rude she really was & left the place for good… seriously don’t blame us customers about your problems leave that at home you can’t be all mad in a workplace where you dealing with customers if you don’t like your job just quit & find something you can enjoy working at because is really disturbing how employees like this recieve you with an attitude not only you put you yourself bad but the place also you had my 5 star now it went to 0 just because of this bad treatment

I’ve been coming here for the past year, I’ve obviously always loved their work but lately their service FUCKIN SUCKS!!!
The male who works in front is fuckin rude, he practically forced my friend to leave a tip on her debit card! (What if she had cash?) Not to mention he asked/​yelled loud enough for the entire salon to hear. How embarrassing.
I’m actually pretty upset with their decline in customer service and I refuse to return. I’m appalled. They’re pretty expensive as well, the least they can do is compensate with decent customer service.
I’ve watched them be rude to other people but the last time I was there they refused to do my fill-​in (which doesn’t even take long) when there was half an hour left for them to be open. They seem pretty money hungry all the time so I’m actually surprised that they declined service to me. At that, they practically FORCE you to buy honey sugar scrub when you’re getting a pedicure. ($ 5) Their upselling is uncomfortable. If you want good service, go to Nail Club. The owner will personally greet you and they’re friendly.

I’ve been here 3 – 4 times in the past 3 years. They do a nice job on nails, but the reason that my review is not higher is because of the atmosphere. On an extremely busy Friday night, the TVs were way too loud and the entire place smelled extremely strongly of nail-​related chemicals. They need some better circulation because I was getting a headache from the smell. When I went at a slower time (weekday morning), the smell was not so bad. One other time I made an appointment and went to the salon at their opening time (11 AM) on a Sunday, but the salon opened about 10 – 15 minutes late because all of the staff arrived in a van late. Considering how close this location is to the Pulaski CTA station, it doesn’t make sense to me for everyone to be late on a Sunday morning.

I’ve been a loyal customer for a year and a half already, this is my favorite nail salon to go to! Ive tried a couple other nail salons, and so far this is the best one. I feel comfortable going here. They open at 10am on Saturdays, I needed a no chip manicure for an event today (Saturday) so I got to the nail salon around 9:50 & there were 4 other ladies waiting by the door! Keep in mind that the weather was about 25 degrees! That just shows how much quality their work has. My no chip manicure lasts about 2 – 3 weeks. I totally love this nail salon! Other nail salons their no chip manicure lasts for about a week and they start chipping. Also I never feel that the nail technician is rushing on my nails even though there’s a huge waiting line.

I have recently starting going to Cnn nails and I love it. First off, where can you find a deal like a no-​chip mani and pedi for only $ 40!?! The no-​chip mani last longer than the recommended 2 weeks and the salon has a large variety of colors to choose from. When I get a pedi, I always ask them to apply a honey-​sugar scrub they have and leaves my skin incredibly soft (and they only charge me an additional $ 5). Oh and they are open until 8pm. Most nail salons in the area close at 7pm.

FUNGUS: DON’T GET YOUR NAILS DONE HERE!!! I feel bad writing a negative review about CNN Nails because this was my nail salon for many years. Although is was always busy they always did a god job. Unfortunately I stopped going because I got nail fungus during one of my manicures. It all started with discoloration in my nail and now all my finger is dry, cracked and itchy. The worst part is that half my nail has fallen off (I’m not exaggerating). Thankfully I went to the doctor, who confirmed it was fungus and gave me medication and said that my nail will be growing back.
So go at your own risk but please ask them to clean their equipment. If they want to run a business they have to become more hygienic.
