About

Backstage Nail & Spa was founded by Zukhra and Cristina, who met in 2014. They opened their first salon in Lakeview, Chicago, in 2015, and the business is now listed at 1614 W. Belmont Ave.

The menu centers on three services. The E-File No Chip manicure includes shaping, dry cuticle cleaning, buffing, a structured strong gel base, and a solid color of the client's choice, and the Medium version costs $90 and lasts up to four weeks. Gel extensions add length to short natural nails and begin with dry E-File cuticle cleaning, shaping, and buffing; the medium full set costs $125. Nail art starts at $20 and is done with professional-grade gels, pigments, and tools.

The salon describes its E-File technique as less damaging than traditional methods. It describes itself as a trusted place for women who value precision, quality, and genuine care, and says it aims for a high standard of luxury and professionalism at every appointment.

Hours are Monday to Friday 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, Saturday 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, and closed Sunday.

The salon describes its E-File technique as less damaging than traditional methods and builds its services around careful, precise nail work.
