Question 7

What is Paraffin Wax?

Accepted Answer

Paraffin wax is made from saturated hydrocarbons. Paraffin for your manicures and pedicures are great for healing dry and cracked skin, making them silky and smooth again. Once the wax hardens around your hands and feet, it opens up your pores to release any dirt or toxins, while also removing any dead skin cells.

Question 8

Why do we charge before polish when you're getting signature manicure?

Accepted Answer

The reason is because we simply do not want you to smudge your freshly polished manicure trying to make the payment. Even if you dried it for about 15 minutes, it can still get damaged when you touch your purse or wallet. As our estheticians are usually booked, it would be very difficult for us to fix your polish every time you smudge them. That is why we recommend you to pay before polish when you are getting signature manicure. Thank you for your understanding!

Question 9

Is there a parking?

Accepted Answer

There are Chicago Street Pay Parking available right outside our both locations as well as hourly pay garage parkings in the same building. 
For customers visiting our Lakeshore East location, there are some discounts if you want to park in the Coast parking garage. Please ask for more information from our front desk receptionist.

Question 10
