And now for lite 😎but important news: I found #bestnailsalon in @chicago And it’s NOT because we both chose a magical name for our business: @illuminate_salon_chicago (although that is the only reason I checked them out.) They are a #bestkeptsecret for #nailsinchicago They offer high touch and high tech, introducing the European manicure and other cutting edge techniques to make my little #selfcareritual my favorite! These women are hardworking and offer that rare customer touch that I so appreciate because I #doitwithlove too! I hear I just missed my favorite @midoridoumani today. She knows what’s up!
And here are two tips: get a pedicure and use the massage function in the chair. You will be delighted😉 and @opi #eternalshine @ Illuminate Salon&Spa
