THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR INCREDIBLE GUESTS FOR YOUR PATIENCE, LOVE & SUPPORT OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS! WE TRULY APPRECIATE YOU ALL! Our communities have been through a lot over the last few months, and we are truly looking forward to resuming or normal habits & routines.

We ask that you please, please be patient with us as we will do our best to be as prompt as possible, we may run behind, or ask you to come a little later than originally schedule for to adhere to our new protocol & guidelines put upon us. We may run behind while we figure out what our "new day to day" will actually be like.
PLEASE BE PATIENT, & KIND 💜
APPOINTMENT REMINDERS & NOTIFICATIONS
HAVE BEEN TURNED BACK ON!!
While we have always followed proper sanitation/disinfection guidelines and held high standards when it comes to the cleanliness of our studio, we will continue to do so going forward. Our salon & staff have been recently re-certified by Barbicide on their normal sanitation guidelines as well as certified in their newly published COVID-19 requirements & training.
During this time both our Nail & Hair Studio's have been sanitized & disinfected from top to bottom, and I mean down to every nail polish bottle, retail item or surface possible. We ask that you please refrain from touching any of these items unless you intend to purchase them. We will gladly assist you in getting any products or the nail polish color of choice.
With the exception of our main exterior door, our interior doors will remain open, high traffic areas such as the bathrooms, door handles, pens, tablets, LED nail lamps, etc will be properly sanitized throughout the day or after each client. We have removed all magazines, snacks & beverages, for the time being. We will still have bottled water, or you may bring your own. We have installed new plexiglass shields at each nail station, & our reception counter to ensure social distancing measures, & limit face to face contact, as well as motion activated soap dispensers & water faucets within both studios.
OFFICIAL GUIDELINES WERE ISSUED: On May 24, 2020 The Illinois Department of Commerce & Economic Development officially released re-opening guidelines to all Illinois salons. Please understand this is what is required for us to legally reopen our doors, operate & keep our license valid, this is all temporary. Below you will find the link with full guidelines published should you wish to read them, & also the FAQ concerning the use of face coverings during COVID-19.
