A Q Nails

Really like the job they do but inconsistent with prices. I go for same service every time and am being charged different price each time. I have asked twice in a row now why and given two different reasons very disappointed!

I have been coming here when they originally opened over 8 years ago. Can’t see going anywhere else, despite me moving to Aurora. The shop is immaculate and the staff is very friendly. Clean tools, very reasonable prices, great selection of colors and no chip as well. They also offer other services. I make appointments but they luv walk ins too!!! I am always getting compliments on my manicures and pedicures. Ask for a design, they do great work! Thank you Titi, you’re the best!!!

First time at AQ Nails in Elk Grove and I love them! Everyone was super friendly. Victor did my nails and did more than amazing! Thank you so much I will definitely be coming back :)

I come here all the time. I found this place because I needed to find a place open on Sunday’s. Henry the owner, from Vietnam, is very friendly along with his wife. He has two sweet little children. He even opens the door for me on my way into the store for my appointment. Sometimes I make an appointment only a half hour before and they always seem to make space for me. I observe them with other customers and they seem to really be trying their hardest to make sure all customers are happy and receive top quality service. I really like that they use a fresh clean plastic bag in the pedicure baths because then I know that they are always clean. Fab smelling Cocoa lotion for the leg massage too! I couldn’t be happier with this at my go-​to nail salon. And believe me I’ve tried a LOT in the NW suburbs here.

Super friendly staff, and they always do a great job with my gel fills and pedicures. They just got new massage chairs for pedicures, which are really nice and comfortable. Tons of polish choices and options for nail art. I have been coming here for years and have always left happy.

Lured in from Des Plaines for a $ 21 no chip groupon. Called for an appointment, told to walk in. Walked in, made me wait because I didn’t have an appointment. I knew I wanted French and it would be an extra $ 5. But when I went to pay at the end she told me she couldn’t run my card for less than $ 10. So my manicure was $ 31. Well everyone knows you can go just about anywhere, anytime for a normal full price manicure! Except this wasn’t a normal manicure. She cut my nails totally off to the bit, then held my skin back to file them even shorter. I should’ve started alert and stopped her, but I was watching the news. I would never return here, for any reason. Titi made no conversation and wasn’t friendly. A pedicure was $ 30 for French. Which put me at $ 60 for a discount mani/​pedi, which is $ 12 more than I usually pay full price at Pretty nails right up the road.

I had a no-​chip mani done 2 weeks ago. I waited to see how it would do and it did pretty well. About 2 days ago (just shy of 2 weeks since they were done) the corner or my pinky chipped. It’s not a big deal to me personally but thought I would share. The gal was very nice and the place was nice. What I did not like: when my nails were done there was a pretty big gap between my cuticle and nail, which would mean my nails would grow out even sooner, but luckily my nails grow slowly so I still went 2 weeks until I had my next set done (at a different salon). But what really irked me was that the utensils were used & not clean. They were in a blue package which at first glance would seem sterile & unused. Until I realized she didn’t open the package (because it was already open) and she pushed my cuticles back and got the trimmer out I could see someone else’s trimmings still on it. Was pretty nasty but at that point it was already too late. So it would seem I would have gotten a new set of utensils for my manicure, when really they use them over and over and just keep them in the blue sterile pack to make them seem clean. All I know is I won’t be back.

I went a week ago for a no chip mani (found on groupon) & pedi w/​a girlfriend. Both of our no chips have already chipped on several nails, and same with the pedis. I have had no chip manis at other places & have never had problems with chipping this early, or at all for that matter. I wonder if they even used no chip polish, or just charged for it. Would definitely NOT recommend this salon, nor will I ever go back.

Brought 2 girls to get their nails done (age 14 and age 3). One no-​chip and one polish change. They did a decent job in about 30 – 40 minutes. The services were very basic so no complaints there. My one annoyance was that I called ahead asking if they had appointments available and the receptionist told me that I could walk in at 7:30 (closed at 8pm) but when I arrived, the nail techs acted very disappointed.

They seemed to have updated. I used to go there often when I lived in the area. Haven’t been in a couple of years.
The facility has been updated and is ncie and clean. Nice staff that took their time.

This place is awful! I went to get my nails done here once and I will never be back. They are rude and nickel and dime you for everything. This is a typical Chinese nail salon that talks sh*t about their customers while they are standing right in front of you, which is exactly what happened with me and many others inside the salon. They were rough and in too much of a hurry to get the next customer, they didn’t care what they were doing or if it was hurting. Lady pretty much yelled at me, GO WASH, well I have never been here before, do you feel like pointing me in the right direction. Why can’t Chinese people just stick to making their food instead of running every nail salon in the US.

Not impressed. My manicure did not last long, they were thinning the polish as we went. I won’t go again.

Tina is the best! She and the staff are so very friendly, courteous and accommodating. They are always willing to please and give awesome service. I have been to other nail salons and none can compare to how knowledgeable, helpful and good they are at this salon. The atmosphere, music and décor is pleasing and relaxing – zen like. I can’t say enough good things about my experience there.

I paid 35 dollars for a gel manicure. Every other nail salon gives you a hand or neck massage and they don’t. Plus the quality was not worth 35 dollars and I already have a chip the next day!
I wouldn’t go back here or recommend this place for a gel manicure.

I had a Groupon for here and had never tried the place before. Glad I did! Great place! Very professional, very welcoming and knowledgeable employees. Did a great job on my no-​chip! Will be going back for more!

Love my no chip and HATE my pedicure. I was convinced to get the amazing upgrade and it was horrible. I wish I could upload a photo of how crappy my toe nail polish is. And it was supposed to be a 10 minute massage… it was maybe 4. And she spilled paraffin wax on me like 4 times. Not satisfied, especially because they charged me full price. No discount or anything. Just a coupon to come back… why would I return?

I honestly love this place, the girls are so sweet! They do a nice pedi and no chip mani. Every time I go, there’s no wait and I get serviced fast :)

The first time i came here with a groupon for a no chip mani. They did a fantastic job and it was the best no chip ive ever gotten. She was so thorough! The second time i went back was 2 weeks later to get it removed and get a new no chip since it was so good the first time. This time i got a different nail tech and she didnt ask if i wanted my nails shaped and then didn’t shape them. In fact they’re all different lengths. I went home and tried to file them myself. And she left the gel glue stuff under my nails instead of removing it like the tech did the first time. She was rough with the cuticle clippers and i got a cut that bled. Overall my first experience was 5 stars. Second was one or 2 stars. I wish i knew their names so i could ask for a tech specifically next time.

First time in and I was greeted when I walked in which was the only pleasant experience I had.
I got an eyebrow waxing and lip waxing done at this salon and it was a terrible experience. The woman did not ask me how I would like my eyebrows (shape) and when I tried to communicate she said ya ya ya, theyll be pretty. She was impatient and had no respect in listening. When it came to my lip wax, the woman actually waxed a part of my face. She also overlapped the wax on my top lip. The wax burned me, as well as I blistered for the next couple of days. I will NEVER go back to this place again.

Best pedicure in EGV. I’ve tried all the rest they are best. My feet feel so soft and their massage chairs are awesome too!
