Sarah lynn Asked for a trim of the dead ends and they hacked my hair off. Looked like my 5 year old cut it!

Eric Counterman They gave my 2 year old daughter her first hair cut. These people were so polite and generous. They did their best to help keep her calm through the experience, treated her like a princess, gave her candy, helped us to take pictures, and even when we, the parents, were forgetful and nervous, the owner and beautician remembered to save her hair for us. These people were so great with our daughter and our distraught emotions, they really seemed to care about us as a family on this special day.

Ethel Spracklen It was one of the best Ive had in a long time. The stylist listened to what I wanted and did exactly what was requested. Cant wait to go again.

Rachel T. Glasgo One month prior to my sons wedding in Vancouver Canada, I reserved my hair appointment on line from the USA. Within minutes I had a text and email confirmation. Minoo met me at the door the morning of my appointment. I showed her a picture of a up do hair style. She matched it and even made it better. STELLA Beauty is in a good neighborhood, the place is clean and staff are pleasant and courteous. I would recommend Stellar Beauty to anyone! Thank you Minoo I had lots of compliments on my hair.

K Ash Shelby has been doing my nails and my moms nails for years. I love the new colors and all the choices for "sparkly bling" to keep my nails looking great! I get so many compliments! My mom has limited use of her hand but Shelby is so gentle and compassionate when it comes to taking time to do her gel manicure. Her shop is always clean and bright. Shelby always adds cheer to me and my moms day. Thanks Shelby!

Shauna Howe First appointment with Grace. She was wonderful to work with. I came in for a hair cut after my hair was not cut correctly at another local salon- leaving a lot of uneven layers. She really listened to what I wanted and made it happen. Can’t wait for my next appointment. Highly recommend Grace!

Ryan Frascone Lidia did an amazing job on my hair! I was nervous to cut my hair, and left on cloud nine, feeling fantastic! Thank you for doing what you do!
5 /5
CoreY and JenN Do Stuff! I was not greeted upon entering, no one used my name the entire time I was there. I booked a color/cut and the color experience was great but I was and am so disappointed in the cut. I sent two reference photos and asked for short layers and a messy look. I got a bob that looks horrible. When I called to let them know, I asked to speak to a manager and was told that they were busy and had me speak to the person that messed up the cut in the first place. They only offered to have me come back for the same person to fix it. Not okay. Services like this are based on trust. I cant trust that I wont end up with a pixie cut.

Lauren Dunn I had scheduled an appointment with another person (Des the barber) through Booksy. I arrived at the appointment with my son who is 1.5 y.o and found out she (Des) was not there. Kira was finishing up with a client and offered to take my son’s appointment. I am so thankful she was there and I was still able to get my son’s haircut. She went out of her way when she didn’t have to. It’s appreciated more than she knows. She was so sweet and kind. I would recommend her to anyone with a young child. I will definitely be returning for my son’s next haircut! Thank you so much Kira! You were amazing!
5 /5
Ian McDaniel Kira was fantastic! She welcomed me with a smile into her salon, she asked what I wanted and even gave me suggestions with my hair type and stubborn cowlick! She was very pleasant to talk with throughout the process and I was very pleased with how my hair tuned out! I will be back for more hair cuts!

L. Reid Holly is the first nail technician I have had to actually care for my nail health and teach me about caring for my nails. I had a full acrylic set with gel polish and a pedicure. The shop is clean, the massage chair is awesome, my nails look great and most importantly Holly was professional, personable, and knowledge. Highly recommend making a reservation here.

Deborah Starr All the ladies there are very nice. Michelle Johnson does GREAT nails!!! Very professional & clean. Her pedicures are VERY relaxing with massage & hot towels!!! I am a runner so she mixes up a custom color & glitters that I pick out, for my polish. She calls it Rock Star polish. Its the only polish that will last me until my next pedicure. Usually its all rubbed off in a few weeks from my running. She also does gel manicures & acrylics. The salon is always very clean, which is so hard to find especially with so much hair being done. They also have a boutique in the front where they sell clothing, handbags, and accessories.
5 /5
Lara Oneschak Kristin Merritt does a fantastic job, every time I have my hair colored! She does a fantastic job interpreting my wants to my hair, both cuts and colors.

Lucy Whitman I went in to get a fill for my nails and I had a gift card with me. I asked if the gift card was still able to be used and she said “no are you stupid this expired two years ago.” I would’ve been fine if she just told me no. the owner is really rude. Will never be coming back here.

Nichole Gumm I just recently learned about Lunar Luxe from a guest at the restaurant I serve at. Ive never seen such an amazing set of nails that all us servers were gathered around asking questions. My boyfriend overheard me talking about them and got me a gift certificate for Christmas. Honestly most comfortable place Ive ever been in for a service. Cant wait for my second set of nails to show off. All artists do amazing work go check them out for yourselves you wont know who to pick. Theyre all amazing!!!

17.Glitter Nail Lounge

Address: 2127 Court St, Pekin, IL 61554

(9) Reviews Glitter Nail Lounge:

Eprimiller First picture is what I asked for except with orange and turquoise. She asked if it was okay if we only did one color on the flowers as she had another appointment after me and this design would take too long (even though I was there for a fill and my appointment was for an hour). I reluctantly agreed. She then used the gel to fill my nails (the gel was colored) so there’s thin spots where you can see though them. When it was time to do the design she told she she could only do black and white because she wouldn’t be able to match the other colors so again I reluctantly agreed. She pulled out a plate and a stamp and picked out a totally different design. Keeping in mind I had came with a friend who she happily color matched and hand painted a design right before me. She smeared my design and was going to leave it until I said something. While preparing to fix it she told me that I needed to stay still so it didn’t smear again even though she smeared it while wiping the sides of my nails. She then proceeded to wipe off part of the design and not fix it as you can see in the pictures. She didn’t put any top coat on the flower design or cure it. She rushed me out because of her next appointment but there was no one waiting there when I left. She also took any and every opportunity to text on her phone during the service. I felt like a bother the entire time I was there. To touch on the positive, it was very clean and the shape is near perfect. Needless to say I will not be back.

brittney Burrell Last time I went to this place, my experience was perfect. The decorations were cute, the ladies were super friendly, I didnt have to sit there in awkward silence, my nails ended up really pretty and they lasted about 3 weeks + a few days before I removed the rest of them. It wasnt painful at all. I really loved this place. I hope to go again today.

Brandy Littlepage We had a girls day at nail expert and they did an amazing job. They were so kind and the salon is very well set up. They were crazy busy the day we come and they were still able to take care of all 4 of us, other appointments, and walk ins. The painted nail art looked just like the photo. We would all highly recommend you check them out and we will definitely be back.

Annie Poirrier I’d highly recommend this salon have been coming here since the owner Sebastian and his wife took over and haven’t allowed anyone else to do mine and my daughter’s nails. Sebastian always gets me in and is very open to fixing any issues we have. Everyone is always respectful and friendly when we go we feel like we’re welcome and never an awkward moment.

Lousy Witterman Just went to get my nails done yesterday and the older lady doing them is extremely rude. Acted like I was stupid, rushed through my nails, and was smacking my hand because SHE turned it the wrong way. My nails look terrible, there’s bubbles in the acrylic. They are crooked, and so thick they just look awful. I made the appointment a week in advance, and they rushed ME but not the walk ins. Also huge chunks of acrylics left under my nails too. It was 9:30 on a Saturday they barley had people. Absolutely ridiculous and a waste of money. I’ve been a stay at home mom for 2 years so haven’t gotten my nails done and forget shape names. She laugh and started talking in a different language to the person next to her like I’m stupid and don’t know it was about me. Sad this is a job you chose to do and you treat and do nails like complete trash. And yes that’s blood where she cut my skin because she put the nail on wrong.

Keitha Graham Love going to Denas Nails & Spa. They all do really good work & all free handed, which is super super impressive. Prices are on point as well. Im always getting compliments on my nails, and they always ask where I get them done. I highly recommend Lynn & Jenny, they are both phenomenal.
