C T Nails in McHenry, IL

If I could give less than one star.. I would. I was a walk-in yesterday so I wasn't expecting top of the line service or anything... however, the lady that did my nails was on the phone the entire time... my shapes arent even... my nails arent even... the nail polish doesnt cover the side of the nails... I had to keep asking her to fix holes in the polish... THE ACCENT COLORS ARENT EVEN ON THE CORRECT FINGERS.... and they were suppose to be french tipped not solid color.... "why didn't you say something:" Trust me.. I did.. multiple times... she just kept saying ":i know" and kept talking on her phone... making phone calls replying to texts.. which i dont care as long as you can do your job at the same time.... she clearly could not... shouldnt have paid... will never go back or recommend

I used to go here many times but the last time the pedicure was so painful. The girl cut me several times and made me bleed. She buffed the bottom of my feet for 3 seconds, slapped some lotion on my legs. When she was putting on my polish she kept getting the torture device out to dig under my nail I finally had to tell her to stop!!! When I complained they gave me $5 off. Terrible service. My daughters nails were beautiful but later she showed me all the cuts she had on her fingers. I will not go back there again!!!

I love this location but after Kim left this place has gone downhill. Tom is an excellent technician but there is no one to help. They don't offer waxing services only on certain days. The nail colors I want are out of stock and they don't reorder them. I don't consider children to help when it's busy with no license to do nails. After ten years of going here I have to find a new shop.

Firstly, I'd like to say i left my fav place to give this place a chance. I want to vomit- never had this much anxiety over my nails! First off the man who did my nails tried to get one nail that had acrylic on it off with a plastic acrylic nail- i should've stopped there even after I asked him to file it off (it was a small amount)!! and he replied it would take too long. I made him file it and it took 15 seconds maybe. I'm sorry but- no one is here so why the hurry it takes a couple extra seconds to save my nail from unnecessary ripping off acrylic. Some of my nails don't look coffin shaped. Then he passed me to another man to polish me. That was a joke the guy put the wrong color and almost even argued that it was the right one when clear as day the name wasn't the same on the bottle or the color of the swatch. Went to pay they charged me an extra $5 for the shape.... umm doesn't the shape come with the set of nails you just put on me??? Never again!!

If I could give this nail salon less than one star I would. We had a party of three that called ahead and they said they would have three people available. When we arrived there was only two. So one member of our party sat with her feet in the tub for over 40 minutes, making her late to get her kids off the bus. There were five customers in the salon by the middle of our pedicures and the two employees were juggling between all of us. I paid 50 dollars for a French No Chip Pedicure which was suppose to include standard nail care, a salt foot bath, hot towel treatment and a leg massage. The nail care was terrible. My toe nails were filed way to low and the edges of my nails were clipped below their natural level. As for the leg massage, if you consider rubbing lotion on and then immediately. removing it, sure there was a massage. The hot towel were on my legs for a maximum of 30 seconds. The French style itself is terrible. The white tips are not fully white and could have clearly used another coat, which would have been noticed if the employee was not working on three different people. I have attached photos to save anyone else from wasting their time and money. Do yourself justice for your money and go to LT Nails in Crystal Lake where each pedicure says how long of a massage you will get and they actually set a timer. I live in McHenry but it is worth the drive.
