L&L Nails - Sugar Grove (IL)

5 /5 Gillian Evola: I love this place. It’s clean, they have HGTV on and also wonderful music. Very relaxing! Brian is the best! Cats eye finish on my fingernails. Not such great pictures, but actually beautiful in person.

5 /5 Tammy Green: I love the color Aqua pink #94. My nails turned out beautiful! Very nice people. Thank you!

5 /5 Laurindo: Took my mom here for Mother’s Day and they were very kind! My mom and I aren’t used to getting out feet done so they were helpful. Some of them don’t really speak English too well but they were nice and helped us have a fun, comfortable and relaxing time! Definitely would come back!

2 /5 Christy Dale: This is my second time returning here. I also went in the spring to have a full set done for graduation. They turned out horrible but I chalked it up as just one bad experience and not the norm. So I went back a week ago from today. They were able to see me right away as a walk in which I was grateful for because my schedule is tight. I had a manicure with no chip done. It was the fastest anyone has ever worked on me, which made me nervous but as I watched her work I didn’t see her doing anything wrong or painful. And I had already cut and shaped my nails so there wasn’t much for her to prep, just cuticles and a little file. I was a but shocked that in the end I paid $36 before tip. That seemed high for no chip but it’s been a while so I don’t know what typical prices are like. When I got home I noticed ripples at the tips of my nails, bubbles and chunks under the polish, and what I would describe as holes or separation in the top clear coat. I work 2 jobs and I’m in school full time, my schedule is very tight, so going back to have them fixed wasn’t worth the stress of making time. But now, one week later, they are starting to peel up on the edges. I’m so disappointed. I use to go here regularly and loved my experiences, but it’s changed since a couple years ago (I think it was JTs back then). (I’m trying to figure out how to post pictures)

2 /5 Marin Sinclair: I’ve given this place three tries, and unfortunately, it just hasn’t been the right fit for me. My first visit was great—my pedicure was done by a gentleman with tattoos who did a fantastic job. However, the second and third visits didn’t meet the same standard. The young man (who appeared to be in his late teens or early twenties) and the older gentleman with a raspier voice both left my toenails unevenly trimmed, and the polish application was inconsistent, with noticeable ridges near the cuticles. I really wanted to love this place, especially since it’s only a four-minute drive from home, but sadly, I’ll be looking elsewhere moving forward.
