Eyebrow lamination with shaping + tinting

Brow lamination makes your eyebrows always look well-groomed. The hairs become obedient. Your hairs acquire more flexibility so you can put them to a desired shape, therefore covering any gaps or stray areas. The procedure includes tweezing/waxing and tinting of your brows.
The procedure takes 1 hour

Makeup Daily
$120
The purpose of daytime makeup is often to highlight natural features, conceal flaws and blemishes on the skin, and promote a fresh and awake appearance. Daytime makeup looks are generally subtler than evening or nighttime looks. False lashes are not included
The procedure takes 50 minutes
Bridal Makeup
$200
The main difference between a party and a bridal makeup is that the latter takes much longer to apply and is an entirely bespoke service. Even if the makeup looks simple it can't be achieved quickly. Usually, a makeup artist would spend more time on the bridal making sure everything is perfect. The most important part of the wedding is the bridal makeup. And we can help you feel happiness on this day!
The procedure takes 1 hour and 40 minutes
Evening Makeup
$150
Evening makeup looks call for high drama: a bit of shimmer, bright eyes that pop, and bold lips! Dark colors can sometimes be harsh for the day but work well for the evening time and photoshoot.
The procedure takes 1 hour and 20 minutes

I’ve literally never had a better mani pedi in my life. I don’t think I can go anywhere else after this service - so happy I found this place!!

Vetilinia did an AMAZING job on my Russian manicure. She took her time and paid very close attention to detail. She was very friendly and delivered what I requested. Definitely going back!
Minnie W.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
First time coming here and I am blown away! The attention to detail is spectacular - I don’t think I’ve ever had a more “clean aesthetic” before this. Anastasia was amazing, would recommend her in a heartbeat!!
Marcelina Z.

I love going to this place. Everyone is always nice and friendly. I always see Vitalina and she is the best. I love every set she has done for me.

Every manicure I’ve had here has been exceptional. I have probably visited every Russian manicure salon in the city, and Unique Nails tops all of them by landslide. The hard gel easily lasts three weeks and keeps your nails so strong and pristine
Aleesha V.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Zazina was amazing - very thorough, made sure I was loving my nails throughout the entire process, and so efficient with time. I loved how my nails turned out, they’re perfect!
Janet T.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This place has legit Russian pedicure. They even used the oil used by Russian pedicurist. I went to another salon and they used water. Not only that, the nail tech finished my pedicure in 45 mins. A true Russian pedicure and manicure take at least 1 hour 15 mins to 1 hour and 30 mins. Yes the price is a bit steep for pedicure $115 (with gel) but worth it IMO. My heels are baby butt soft.
Bri S.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely loved my experience at Unique nails. The atmosphere and ambiance was so refreshing and relaxing. The services deserve 10s across the board. Everyone was so pleasant and professional. I will albe a regular after this visit. I received the e-file pedicure and gel extension manicure. Worth every dime
Narumi T.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clean and luxurious feeling inside :) Got a dry pedicure today and my toes and feet feel and look so much better!! The girl (I think viktoria) took her time to really make sure all the dry parts were taken care of and it was… a lot. I really appreciate the detailed work. Everyone here that interacted with were very nice.
Ellen W.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I got the best manicure of my life from Zarina today. She is an artist and went above and beyond, even helping me find the right color. My nails were in rough shape when I came in, and I was painfully breaking a new one everyday. Walking out I was stunned by the difference. My nails look amazing and my cuticles feel great.
Victoria L.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I came across Unique Nails on Instagram. I’m happy I did because I enjoyed my first experience with them. Everyone was so kind!! The service is very good and professional. You don’t feel rushed. I really love my nails! I’ll most definitely be back while I’m in Chicago. 😊

I’ve been coming to Unique Nail Salon for Russian manicures, and they never disappoint. The quality is top notch, and my manicures last over a month without chipping. The salon offers a true luxury experience with attention to detail and excellent service.

It was my first time here and it was very clean and also such a pleasant experience. My feet have never been softer. I feel like I’m gliding with shoes on. Thank you ladies 💗
Emily Y.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Got my nails done last week on Friday and it was such an amazing experience for both my cousin and I. I also really appreciated that they looked at the health/condition of my nails and then recommend a solution. The cuticle clean up was so cool to watch and my nails have never felt healthier. Can't wait to book my fill in soon with Anastasia!
Camila K.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
These ladies do Russian manicures the way they’re supposed to be done! I’m super particular about gel overlay because nail techs, more often than not, lay the gel on too thick.. but not here. Nails come out looking beautiful EVERY time! I’ve tried out most salons in Chicago for Russian manicures, and this one is my favorite! Never going anywhere else.
Jessica C.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently visited Unique Nail Salon, and Milana M. did an amazing job! I was a bit anxious since I had heard Russian manicures can take forever, and I don’t like sitting still for too long. However, Milana worked so quickly yet was incredibly careful and precise. I absolutely love my milky nails – they’re everything I’ve ever wanted. Jokes aside, they’re truly perfect. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for flawless nails!
Ashariah D.

Rachel S.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Easily the best manicure I’ve ever had! The salon is clean, cozy, and inviting. Everyone was incredibly friendly and accommodating – I was even offered coffee with a non-dairy milk option. The salon is in a great location with plenty of street parking. Viki was my nail artist, and was absolutely fabulous. Her attention to detail is insane! She was very gentle while working on my nails and the service never felt rushed, which is something I can’t say for most other salon experiences I’ve had.
Deena S.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is the best Russian manicure in Chicago. The location is great, there is easy street parking. The salon is very organized and clean and the manicure is fabulous!

Great experience overall at Unique Nail and Salon. They did a wonderful job helping me pick a color and were extremely diligent with their nail work. I was extremely impressed with how my nails turned out. Would highly recommend going to this Salon for a Russian manicure. 10/10!
Yami O.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This has to be by far my favorite set. My nail specialist was Natalia and she did an exceptional job. This was my second Russian manicure and my nails held together so well until my appointment with Natalia. My nails feels strong and slim unlike bulky acrylic nails. Very excited for my next set. I will say this is an expensive service, but it is worth it!
Petra S.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best nail salon. Seriously!
The girls working are so sweet, knowledgeable and great at nails.
They got me delicious coffee and took extra care of my severely damaged nails from a different salon.
Most sanitary salon I’ve ever been to, and they pay much attention to detail to give you the most perfect nails you’ve ever had!
R McComb.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The most amazing and effective manicure I’ve had to solve both my cuticle problem as well as offering long term shiny and strong nails. No acetone or soaking ever! Well worth the price!
Maya Q.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had a wonderful experience at Unique. I was impressed by how thorough and well executed my manicure was. Although I’ve had many many manicures of all types before, this was my first Russian manicure. I’m impressed at how beautiful they turned out and have been admiring my nails constantly. The environment is super beautiful and clean and very peaceful. I spent about 75 min and left very relaxed and pampered.
Maria S.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Amazing experience. They have great communication via social media and in person. Very professional. Very detailed with their services. I loved the way my nails turned out. The salon was clean and peaceful. I will definitely be back!

This my fourth time getting my nails done at Unique Nails and I’ve gotten nothing but superb results and treatment here! Their process results in a perfect healthy set of nails. NO acrylic or any other harmful chemicals! Both my pedicure and manicures last a full month! I recommend 10/10. Try them.. I promise you won’t regret it!

This was the absolute best nail experience of my life. The salon is beautiful and clean, each person I interacted with was so nice and accommodating. They were perfectly on time with the appointment and took their time ensuring every single nail was beyond perfect. I have never gotten so many compliments on my nails in my life - I left feeling beautiful and pampered. I cannot recommend this salon enough!

Beyond impressed! If you’re looking for a luxurious, high-quality nail experience in Chicago, I can’t recommend Unique Nail Salon enough. I’ll definitely be returning! What truly sets this salon apart (and it is very important to me) is their commitment to hygiene and technique. The tools were impeccably sterilized, and the products used were top-quality. It’s clear the team is highly skilled and passionate about their craft.
