Our Story:

About Our Salon:
A fine European salon with old world personalized service started in 1998 by 2 partners & longtime friends: Joanna Dymowski and Agnes Strzelecki who have worked together since 1989. Individualized manicure, pedicure, waxing, & skin care services for the North Shore, established in 1991. Although based in Winnetka, our clients are from the entire Chicago metropolitan area.

Our service is based on Natural care. Unlike other salons, we believe that “one size fits all” does not belong with your hand & foot care.

The selection we offer is second to none. We use an extensive range of products according to your preferences & nail needs.
We look forward to serving you!

Owner Joanna Dymowski has been a Natural Nail Care Specialist for 32 years. She was born & raised in Warsaw, Poland, graduate of college of hospitality, & then manicure/pedicure class of cosmetology.

Joanna worked in a Warsaw salon & with private clients at the same time. Joanna moved to Chicago in 1990 working as a nail technician at North Shore’s premier nail salon in Wilmette.

Joanna enjoys going to work every day because of the conversations, & most interesting opinions about not only current affairs, but life as it comes. She loves tips from current clients about upcoming travels, books, or new life necessities. She loves to travel & calls Glenview home.


Owner Agnes Strzelecki has been a Natural Nail and Skin Care Specialist for 25 years & absolutely enjoys it! She loves helping her clients with problem nails, & believes strongly in the most healthy way to take care of the skin and nails with the least harmful products.

 

Agnes’ favorite part of her job is meeting clients & hearing their story – for her, every hand is a different story, & a new friend she gains. This is her passion along with healthy strong nails & education of manicures, pedicures & reflexology.

Agnes has lived in Wilmette for over 15 years, & loves the area. She enjoys walking the beaches, the beauty of the neighborhoods & listening to music at Ravinia. She loves to travel, culture & people as well as sharing traditions with her son & his family.

Don’t Become a Victim!
Because we care so much about your health, it is important to educate you on the disasters of unsafe and unclean manicure and pedicures from other “un-natural” salons.
