I've been a dedicated client of Lincoln Square Nails for many years now. Linh and her entire team consistently offer a warm welcome, and their craftsmanship is truly exceptional. I even chose them for my wedding day manicure, bringing both my mother and mother-in-law along for the special occasion. Despite now residing across town, I gladly make the journey back to Lincoln Square Nails because their service is simply unmatched.

My visit today for a neon French gel manicure was absolutely fantastic, and Linh truly delivered on the perfect look. I'm not sure what previous reviews were referring to, as they definitely provide excellent no-chip manicures here, and Linh was incredibly sweet and attentive throughout my service. The salon also appears to have undergone a recent remodel, with everything feeling brand new and impeccably clean. I will certainly be returning for my next manicure.

Linh truly impressed me with her service! While visiting town, I decided to treat myself to a regular manicure. Her warm and welcoming attitude was evident from the moment I arrived. I am absolutely thrilled with the shape she created, and my nails genuinely look stunning. I'm incredibly pleased with my experience and would enthusiastically recommend her.

I ended up here after realizing my usual salon didn't offer acrylics. Although it's not located directly in the Square, it's merely a four-minute walk away and absolutely worth the short trip! Lynn was exceptionally friendly and dedicated an impressive amount of time to ensure my nails were perfectly executed. She's also started using a new "dip" technique, which I found to be much healthier, completely free of strong fumes, and provided a far more natural look than any acrylics I've had before. The entire full set was offered at a very reasonable price, around $25 plus tip. I will certainly be returning and highly recommend this spot!

This is truly my favorite spot in the entire city, and I always make an effort to visit whenever I'm in the area. I'm consistently delighted with how my nails turn out, and the combination of friendly, quick service and excellent pricing makes every visit worthwhile.

Linh, the owner, is absolutely amazing, and I've been a loyal client for years. She consistently knows exactly how I like my nails, which is a huge comfort. I've always appreciated that I never feel judged for being a nail biter here. The prices are fantastic, and I always leave feeling incredibly happy with my results. I highly recommend her services, but definitely call ahead to book your appointment.

Living just a minute away, I was genuinely excited to get my nails done here, especially for my upcoming engagement photos. While the color itself was truly beautiful, the application clearly needed an additional coat. Unfortunately, the technician seemed to rush through my service once another customer arrived, leaving me feeling like I could have easily achieved this quality myself. To my dismay, after my Friday appointment, my nails were already chipping by Sunday, and with my engagement shoot scheduled for tomorrow, I simply don't have the time to go back for a fix.
