J Nails

A really great crew here!!! They did a great job with my nails… The only downside is they don’t take credit cards.

3 stars because they always make you wait and take people out of order. I’ve been waiting an hour and someone who walked in for a pedicure after me is getting serviced before I. More than likely you’ll be waiting long to get service here. Maybe not worth the wait.

Just moved to the area and decided to give this place a try. My nails look wonderful, everyone was friendly, and I didn’t feel rushed. I can’t wait to get back there. Definitely my new nail salon!

I Always Love Coming here, fast, Friendly and Very Nice. I love the New workers here. Very nice, and always meeting My Needs in what I want. Theirs always a Smile on My Face when I’m leaving, today was very relaxing I’m 36 week pregnant and I Loved My Pedicure so much I almost fell asleep. They are doing a new thing with any service you can pick one of the following (free Sea Salt, Paraffin Treatment, or a Design) I loved the paraffin treatment on my feet very relaxing. Thanks again I will be returning!!! 5 stars best Nail salon ever!!!

Very nice experience! New owner but worth to visit!!!

They are currently under new management. I had a great experience with Danny. No chip manicure is super reasonable here at $ 30. Super clean. They offer you a beverage upon entering. They are located in the same strip mall as cochula. Much less madness than going to magic nails. This is my new go to place.

frosty finger feet,
happy friendly family,
twin beauties birthdays
**new owners!**
5 stars & a bonus haiku! this family-​owned business is newer but don’t let that stop you. the owners are warn and inviting. very professional practice. I’ve never had someone use such patience and attention to detail as Vivian. She even used a mini brush to softly & meticulously wipe away any excess nail polish on the skin near my nails. Her twin sister, Helen is full of smiles. Helen’s husband loves sports. He was so accommodating, he turned both tvs to the Chicago hears game for my aunt.
This family is generous, kind, and happy to offer professional suggestions to enhance your experience or provide additional comfort and pampering. The price of their services are affordable (certainly far more affordable than my NYC home lol) but the level of care and softness is something that can’t be bought. This family brings such a pleasant atmosphere to their work environment.

Very nice people. Took me in right away for pedi nice break in the middle of the day.

Hi guys !!!
From now we’ve new manegement
We glad when you guys come back to see how we work !!

Price list still same before.

Sorry I can’t leave one star for this place! But it wouldnt post my review without selecting a star. I went there and the guy did my nails. I should have turned away when I only seen one!!! Customer on a Fri evening. I got a gel fill in picked out a design, showed him and he put the design «HE WANTED TO PUT ON» I TOLD HIM THAT’S NOT WHA T I ASKED FOR! BUT having to be at work in 40 min I kept the design that I never asked for. So 3days later my nail cracked from one side to the next. It was noticeably really thin. So I went back and asked him to fix my nail. Oan: there was still no other customers. He charged me 8 $ to repair one nail. Which it should have been free!!! Seeing he drilled it down thin. So I tell him I have no cash only a debit card. He then proceeds to tell me «OH with a debit card the minimum is $ 10 bucks. Smfh I was clearly upset. So!!! I ended up having to pay $ 8 for the nail repair and $ 6 for a color change. Just so he’ll take my card because he would not just charge me $ 8. Such an a##hole. So after 3days I ended up paying the original price of $ 30for a gel fill in plus a extra $ 14 dollars. And the lady worker kept clearing her throat really loud and spitting every 5min. It was sooooo disgusting «NEVER AGAIN DONT EVER GO HERE YOU’LL REGRET IT. Now I found a new shop i go to T nails on Joliet road. This place iis amazing.

I love these guys! This is my go to place whenever I come back to my family’s home. I usually have Julie and she is just the sweetest lady! My mom had Cindy the last time and she was great too. The price is great, the job is always well done and they take their time and are so kind. Great little jem :)

My mom and I use to go to JNails all the time! Jenifer, Daisy and Fun (???SP???) were just so awesome! Now they have new management and those three are never there. The group that is there now are rude (Wont hold a conversation), bad at nails– I got a simple mani pedi and she over charged me! I also brought my little sister that time she charged me a full adult price. Daisy, Jen and Fun would had never done that! All she did was have her nails and toes painted no other services. I hate this place now. I will never return. Time to find a new nail salon or I am doing them myself. Another thing that was irritating. The lady who did my nails kept messing them up and even worse she told me they were dry when they were not. We went out to get to the car in pouring down rain and they were messed up. I came back in showing her she just shrugged me off telling me if I wanted them fixed I would have to pay a full mani price again! FORGET THAT! I miss old management this place use to be great JENIFER COME BACK! :’(

My family and I used to go to J Nails all the time and we really enjoyed it and built up a good relationship with the ladies there, however now all of that has changed. We were loyal and regular customers for several years and as the ladies we knew started leaving and being replaced with people who we not as friendly or skilled. Then we found a new place. On Wednesday, March 11^th our new place was booked so we thought we would give J Nails another go. I will NEVER EVER EVER go back there again, EVER! My lady was nice, very slow, but nice and did a mostly decent job.
However my poor mother had a TERRIBLE experience. She had already had a no chip manicure on so the guy in there (I believe he is the manager) brings over a dremmel tool and begins to try and sand off the no chip. We told him we had never seen our other salon do that but he proceeded to tell us it’s faster and better, so my mom let him continue. Then he put the acetone and foil on while we were getting pedicures. After that he told my mom to go sit at his station where he pulled out the dremmel and told her that he had to get it all off. He started until he made a part of my mom’s nails very thin and she could feel it. She kept telling him ouch and to stop and he said this is how they remove it. (Sidenote: My mother is the sweetest lady and barely speaks up about anything) Anyways, my mom had these beautiful long and strong nails and he basically filed them down so thin and then cut them unevenly and it was just terrible. He destroyed her nails and then blamed our other salon for making her nails. This man does not know how to do nails, which should have been apparent when he was INSISTING she not get a french manicure and get color. She kept asking for french and he did color on her nails anyways among everything else.
It wasn’t until the car ride home when she was visibly upset and told me what happened (I was on the other side of the shop while all of this happened and the TV was very loud in there)
Needless to say we will not be going back there. I advise against this place. They are cheap but here you honestly get what you pay for. Rubbish.

I used to go to this place all the time, and they were great. Then they changed management, remodeled, and it’s terrible now. I went in recently for my usual no-​chip manicure, and the woman took a little over two hours to finish my nails. It took so long I had to leave without getting the hand massage part because I had plans later that evening. They need to hire better nail techs who can do a prompt, quality job. This place used to be filled with customers and lots of nail techs to support the business, now there’s always the same 1 – 2 people there who do a terrible job. The only positive is the price as they are cheaper than most nail salons, that is if you have hours on end to lose. Oh, and don’t take too long choosing a color or someone will hover over you while you browse. Makes it a really uncomfortable experience when you are going there to relax.

J Nails is my back-​up for when my regular spot has a wait. Good, consistent work, and they seem always ready to take walk-​ins (I once came in without an appointment with my mom and aunt, and they got us all into chairs in under 20 minutes — ON A SATURDAY!). The polish doesn’t seem to last that long (do NOT spring for a gel here; their gel chips very quickly!), but if you bring your own as I do sometimes you get better results. And the no-​wait thing is a big bonus if you’re like me and like to get your nails done on a moment’s notice!

I have now been going to J Nails for 11 years. I found JNails the very first day after moving to the La Grange Park área back in 2003, and have not been disappointed with them since. I have used them for some very important days in my life: My Wedding, My daughters first experience with beauty, preparation for vacation, and soon enough my daughters prom day.
Honestly, I have always been the type of person to always have back up nail salon options, just in case. Therefore, I have tried other places, but always ended up coming back to them because they have always done an amazing job! To the point, where I do not go anywhere else. The ladies are busy at times, but there is never longer than a 15 minute wait.
Tina, Jennifer, Daisy (I love these ladies) Everytime I visit, I feel like I am visiting family. There are very particular about their work, and I always leave feeling wonderful and pretty! I have used them for acrylic nais, my own nails (no chip), pedicure, eyebrow waxing, and have never had any issues with their services. I would highly recommend JNails…

Very rude and did not respect my wishes for the services I wanted. Wouldn’t go back here again

Tried to delete post but it won’t work.

I have been coming here for a while now after a co-​worker recommended the place to me. All of the nail ladies are great. I agree with Amanda that they do a great job on pedicures. They really take the time to make sure all the dead skin is scrubbed off, I’m sure they all have plenty of muscles from the hard work that they do. I’ve also noticed that over the years they’ve done a good job updating the place and now they have massage chairs as well, which ads a nice touch to the pedicure.
Recently, I’ve also been getting no-​chip manicures here. The massage that comes along with the manicures is also great. It really relaxes my hands. The manicures last about 3+ weeks which is a good deal. Plus they showed me how to remove them at home so if I couldn’t come back to get my polish removed after it started chipping it was not a big deal.
J nails can be pretty busy at times but they are well staffed and I’ve never had to wait more than 15 minutes. I know people call in for appointments, but I never have done that.
Also parking in the front can be crowded, so if you go around the back there is a ton of parking.
