This spot in a small strip mall is a gem worth a visit. I will not get a mani or pedi anywhere…read moreelse. They don't have a lot of room, but what's important to me is getting the best mani-pedi. One side is all about nails, the other side is all about hair, and spa services are downstairs. All the women working here are dedicated to their craft; no one leaves unless they get married, have a baby, move, or retire! They do take a little time to get to know you, so give it a minute. I have been going here for nails for over 15 years. Vaida's manicures last a full week, and she changes what base coat or topcoat she uses on me based on my nails (she can tell if I've been washing a lot of dishes). She brings her own polish if she sees a good toe color for me. She doesn't really massage feet (Tanya does), but if I want a foot massage, I go downstairs or to Joy Foot spa. The full hour is making my feet look good. I honestly get complimented about my nails by strangers all the time- and it's just Marshmallow! When Vaida is on vacation I'm totally happy to go to any of the other ladies, but if I leave town, I just go bare. No one else touches my nails. I used to go to Sine Qua Non or Gordon for cut and color, but then I tried here to save the travel, and that was it. Maryna and Selena are great- today a makeup artist at BlueMercury asked where I get my hair done. Selena has my color looking like a dream, and Gail does my mothers hair better than her own place in Naples. LOVE this place! (Ps- There is always a steady stream of young and old, men and women heading down to the spa so they're obviously good, but I'm not a spa girl!)

I wanted to book an online appointment, so I landed on The Beauty Spot, located within the Sunset…read moreCorners shopping center, next to the hardware store. I was able to secure a morning appointment. It was empty inside (maybe because of today's frigid temps, maybe because today was a holiday), and pretty small, sparsely furnished. However, I was greeted very cordially and brought back to Tanya, who had a station in the back. Tanya was nice, no frills, and did my simple manicure professionally and quickly. The manicure was reasonably priced and I will come back if I can find an appointment that fits my schedule.

Rodney became my hairstylist when I was around the age of 17. I'll never forget my friend dragging…read moreme in to meet him. He felt that Rodney was so laid back and cool. In less than five minutes of conversation, it's easy to understand why. Rodney is comfortable speaking to just about anyone. I have watched him with his clients over the years. What impresses me is that it seems he styles males as much as females. Of every age. I don't see many male stylists who are able to do that. This goes for the Chicago salons I have visited over the years. Rodney may or may not agree, but he has always reminded me of James Dean. When I walked into the salon at 17, he had a tight-white t-shirt on, and jeans. Just like the icon himself. Rodney seems to like music and culture from that era as well. In contrast, Rodney has longer blond hair which echos more of the '80s. I've always found that amusing. Rodney is the best. Just sit down in his chair and let him tell you all about the El Camino he's restoring. I can't wait until he finishes this car. The look of satisfaction on his face will be epic! If you ask, he'll show you photos on his cell phone. Rodney is an unsung hero of hair. Twenty-seven years later, I found Rodney in the same salon where I left off back in the early 2000's. I had just moved back from California, and reconnecting with Rodney was just what the doctor ordered. He knows pretty much everything about me, and I had a California story for him which captured almost everyone's concerns in the salon. It was my first haircut and color since I got home, and it felt Cathartic. Also, I have never felt so supported by people I didn't know. Just when I was thinking humans were poisonous, everyone here in this moment reminded me that some people are still good. You could tell by the looks on their faces. Even if they were just curious. lol That's okay. I get that way too. I now live in Chicago, and drive completely out of my way to get my hair done. My old stomping grounds. It takes a good chunk out of my day, but it's totally worth it. Chicago salons have never treated me well. I might find a decent stylist, but my hair ends up dried out, and it breaks off, leaving my hair looking frizzy. All from the color that they use. When Rodney colors my hair, it feels the same as it did when I started my day. There's probably a simple answer, but what it translates to is a world of difference! The Optometrist I work with has learned a little bit about Rodney after each of my visits. She notices the color right away and knows I went to see him. It's to the point where curiosity has gotten the better of her because of how I describe him as a person. She already knows he has talent from looking at my hair. However, it's because of the nice things I've had to share about the kind of person he is, which made her say, "I have to go meet Rodney." I really hope she does.

Maria stayed open late for me when I needed a last minute appointment! She was so sweet and nice…read more Did an AMAZING highlight job. Definitely will be a loyal customer here from now on.
