Needed my nails done desperately and found the closest salon near my job. Read the reviews and they did not fall short of them. Very clean, very nice, and was extremely pleased, possibly one of the best no-chip manicures I had. Will def be going back. Can't wait to try the many treatments they offer especially the lash treatments. read more

The precision and attention to detail here is next level. I got a pedicure and a gel manicure and both were quite literally perfect. I appreciated that the nail tech actually gave me a real manicure as opposed to use the power tools other salons use. read more

Absolutely amazing! The salon is quaint, beautifully put together and clean. The staff is kind and incredibly diligent in their work. I've tried over 30 salons throughout the city and this was by far the best experience, pricing and end result I've ever had. I'll definitely be back! read more

WHY haven't I heard of no-chip manicures? WHY does this place serve chocolate, tea, beer AND wine? WHY are ALL the workers down to earth? WHY am I sooo...... ..... ....... FABULOUS? Hmmm... I need to stop asking "WHY" and accept life mysteries. It was a Sunday afternoon, and my girlfriends and I stumbled upon this great place after the Cubs game. All four of us walked in and decided on the NO CHIP MANICURE. [see pics] Best part about the NO CHIP MANICURE??? Once you are done, you don't have to wait for your nails to dry and it last about 3 weeks!!!! $$ Cha Ching $$ After a glass of Merlot, I felt a little fancy and decided to opted for an eye brow wax. Let me tell you, Annie, made sure to correct and gave me some advice on taming those two 'bad boys.' Needless to say, I came out of NAS feeling fabulous..... wait ..... did I say that already? Thank you Annie, Bubbles, Lena and David for your great customer service. My girlfriends and I will definitely return. read more

I made an appointment for Saturday afternoon for a mani for myself and a pedi for my sister-in-law. We walked in and had no wait! Walk ins seemed to have a short wait, so this is a great option for a last minute mani-pedi. They've got a huge wall of nail polish to choose from : essie, OPI, Zoya, as well as CND shellac. When making my appointment, I told them that I was coming in for nail art. Lina is THE nail art lady! I came in with a picture of the Chicago flag and came out with amazing Chi-pride nails! Colors matched perfectly. Red starts were carefully drawn. All for just $25. I've gotten nothing but compliments on my mani and it lasted me a good week and a half...for a REGULAR mani!!! Cash only for tips. Save 5% if you pay cash! read more

This place is awesome. I decided to get a simple manicure and pedicure and found Nas Salon. The salon is very clean and cozy. Everyone was friendly and I was in and out in a very reasonable time. Even without getting no-chip, my nails have held up quite well. The nail technician that I had did a very nice and detailed job and I feel totally comfortable in coming here again. Parking around the area is metered, but I came during a weekday and it was not busy at all. There are also plenty of places you can find to park. Cost of my services were about 49 bucks altogether, but keep in mind I only got the basic services. I was still very pleased with the work. read more

Just visited for my 3rd time and still happy! I can the two times previously for no chip manicures based on the reviews. Both were great experiences and the manicures lasted for a at least 4 weeks. Yesterday I received a full gel tip with a no chip mani from Kelly. She was amazing! She took her time and paid attention to every detail. She even pulled off a lovely half moon mani. :) The manicure took a bit of time but I was okay with it since she was so careful with what she was doing - and I wasn't in a hurry. I also had a pedicure while I was there. Everyone in the salon is so pleasant and friendly. Each I've had do my nails has been great read more

I absolutely love Nas Salon and Spa! You can easily make your appointment through YELP in which they are very responsive, call or just walk-in. All of the staff is super friendly, accommodating and very sweet! The environment is quaint, relaxing and inviting. You are immediately greeted and then shown to the area where you will be receiving your services, where they offer you something to drink, and your service begins shortly thereafter. Giza is the best for your mani/pedi needs and Sylvia is awesome for a facial or a massage. We lived in Lakeview and that's how I found this gem of a salon. We just recently moved and I still am going, as they are simply the best! read more

I came in with the most hideous nails, and walked out looking like a hand model! The salon is beautiful and the nail techs are so kind. The salon is small and intimate, which is exactly what you want when you need to relax and treat yourself. I will 100% be coming back and bringing friends! If your questioning coming here, don't it's the best! read more

I was staying with a friend nearby and decided to get my nails done before going to a wedding. I chose this place because it was close and had great reviews. The woman who did my nails was friendly, took her time, was very detail oriented, and asked for feedback several times throughout the process. The space was very clean and relaxing. It was only $5 extra to have her do a glitter ombré on all my nails. There was a small discount for paying in cash. I will definitely return next time I'm in down and in need of a manicure! read more

These guys are great! I've never walked out of the salon unhappy with my nails. The selection of colors is extensive and the polishes are top notch, I haven't had them chip unexpectedly even when there are longer stretches of time between my visits. The salon is very clean and has a great atmosphere. They offer you a choice of beverages while you're getting pampered. The iced tea is really refreshing. Booking an appointment is a breeze, you can use yelp and get a response within minutes or just give them a call. I've never felt rushed here and I feel like they've worked out a system where they do not overcommit and do a sloppy job but still work on getting you an appointment at a reasonable time. read more

This spa/salon is god send!!! seriously i have been everywhere and nothing tops their service! It is clean and they take time with every single client. They help you with nice colors as well! I have seen alot of people and all amazing but Keri is my girl! she takes care of me squeezes me in and they are so good with kids! my 5 year old also loves it here! ask for kerry! read more

After 10 years of coming to this location, sadly I am done. The new management is terrible. I am sad about this decision as I enjoy the ladies that work here and have built relationships with them. I have been charged extra without being told of the additional fees for the service twice in one month. Once was for using more than 2 colors, the second because they "fixed" a nail (they used one coat of a strengthener). I shared my feedback with the new owner the first time that if she informed people prior to the service, it will not be an issue. Tonight. she did it again and when I shared the same feedback, she spoke to a staff member in another language about my reaction. She is rude to her customers and her staff. She is unprofessional and did nothing to remedy my feedback or make good on silly charges. Let's not forget to mention that I was cut during my service and have blood around my cuticles, no apology for that, just an extra $5. read more

I don't know how I've gone my whole life without having a no-chip manicure! I usually do my own nails, but I didn't want to deal with chipped polish while on vacation. My nails had to look good while deep-sea fishing! It's also nice to treat yoself and get pampered once in awhile. I opted for a bright, Barbie pink with silver glitter because I love obnoxiously fun nails. My nails were so awesome that they attracted a dozen yellow tail snapper and a black fin tuna! I almost caught a 50 lb wahoo, but it put up too much a fight for lil ol me and I didn't want to lose my arms, especially since my nails looked so good. My manicure lasted over a week, but I had to take it off because my nails grow abnormally fast and the gap between the polish and cuticle was showing. If I wasn't so weird about my nails, it could have easily lasted another week. The staff is super friendly, they offer coffee and tea (BYOB as well) and you get a small discount for paying in cash. I've only been to a handful of nail salons, but this has been my favorite so far....pun intended! read more

Consistent!! It's seriously tough to find a place that you can trust will provide amazing results and service every time. My manicures are always perfect and LAST. Every nail artist I've had here is attentive, never rushing, and makes sure I'm happy with their work. 10/10. read more

So sad to write this review because I usually LOVE this place, but my last experience has completely turned me off from going here. I called at 4, asking if an appointment for 2 pedicures at 5 would be ok or if that would be too late, knowing that the place closes at 6. The receptionist reassured me that we'd have more than enough time. Regardless, I showed up 20 mins early, just to make sure that we wouldn't be a burden & keep the shop open after their normal hours. The pedicure was amazing, as usual. They didn't offer us wine, like they usually do, but I didn't think much of it. I noticed the staff, mostly the receptionist, we're in a rush, but again, I understood & didn't say anything. After we paid, it was 10 mins until closing time & our lyft was 3 mins away. Immediately the receptionist says to us: sorry, we're closed. We told her how we were waiting for a lyft that was arriving shortly, but we didn't want to wait outside due to it being 30 & I was wearing flip flops. She continues by asking: well, how long until it comes? & just stares at us, with her jacket on, arms folded until it came, 2 mins after. I love the service here, but the receptionist was BEYOND unprofessional & I refuse to give me money to place that thinks she's capable of good customer service & treats their customers that way. read more

First time here an I'm in awe! I had no chip mani and pedi. My nails are very brittle and sensitive and sometimes I'm scared to get a mani bc I always end up getting hurt somehow. Here I was treated with such gentleness! Saya did an AMAZING job with me!!! With such an attention to detail!!! I'm beyond satisfied! Will definitely go back again! read more

My regular manicurist at Cuticle was booked so the only other place near me that offers Dazzle Dry was Nas. Easy to book, atmosphere is relaxing, affordable pricing, but even the next day my cuticles did not recover and so I continue icing them. I knew something was up when my feet were put back into the water and I felt so much burning, but figured it might but be the oils or heat of the bath (or were my toes that bad??) That was until we eventually did my hands and I could see how hard she was pushing my cuticles back with the scraper, even to the point where my thumb started and didn't stop bleeding! It was so incredibly painful! Then she left and set a timer down and didn't come back. Not to say I was done, not to check me out, nothing... I looked over the nails and noticed one wasn't even filed smooth, so had to flag someone down to fix it then ask if I was done. Got home and saw the thumb hadn't been filed smooth either so did it myself. Next day I notice the edges aren't even painted so it looks like I have subtle white tips; three of my toes had blood around the cuticles too (that was the burning I felt) and my pinky is still sore 2 days later. Maybe the other nail techs are different but I wouldn't risk going back. My poor cuticles. read more

Summary: Except for the fact that they didn't honor my appointment, I would definitely recommend this salon. First, and most importantly, it is extremely clean. All of their tools are wrapped and sanitized for each customer. Second, they have a great selection of polish brands and colors. Third, they did a great job on my mani and pedi. Finally, I love the way the place is decorated. Long story: My friend called and made an appointment for two mani/pedis. We arrived and they had the pedi tubs and chairs ready. Her technician started working on her immediately. I sat there with my feet in the water for almost 45 minutes. They clearly didn't have someone available for me. I should probably knock them down to three stars for this, but I've only been there once so I kind of want to see if this was a problem because it was the weekend and during the holidays, or if this is a regular occurrence. My friend and I just chatted anyway, but it was annoying when her pedi was finished and mine was only getting started and they shuffled her over to the other side of the salon. I was also not in a hurry that day, if I had been, it would have been a different story. read more

Unbeatable no chip manicure and gorgeous salon! Absolute best in the Lakeview area. A little pricier than others in the area but you will have new expectations for manicures after visiting Nas. Text them and make an appointment though as they're always busy (for a reason!) read more

Terrible experience! My pedicure lasted 10 minutes and has chips on both toe nails. Lady was not friendly at all and almost all my nails are smudged or chipped. I had no polish on my toes nails when I went in. The pedicure part was 10 minutes, painting my toes was 5 minutes. So overall 15 minutes for a pedicure still doesn't seem right to me. I've had multiple pedicures so it was clear that the girl was rushing through. On top of that, everyone else in the salon had a glass of wine/water/tea, I was not asked once if I needed/wanted anything and had to ask for a glass of wine. I came here because my roommate told me you provided good service and even provided a relaxing glass of wine with a 40 minute classic pedicure. So obviously I was getting poor service. I did not say anything because I already asked for a glass of wine and did not want to further bother the staff when they already seemed annoyed with me for even coming in. read more

This salon is super friendly and cute! They don't do acrylics (as most places don't anymore) but they do have this new gel nail extender which is safer than acrylic and just as durable! I'll be trying that out next time I go in. I got a gel mani over some old grown out acrylics I don't want to get removed. The last salon I went to with these old stubs was complaining that the manicure would look a lot better if i got them removed (he's was totally right) but I would rather let them grow out slowly. The technician at Nas was a good sport about it and filed them so smoothly, you can't even tell there still there! A couple of caveats: she cut me a couple times when doing my cuticles, and when she took the nail clipper to my nails, she didn't notice how close they were to my nail bed which was shockingly painful. She quickly switched to a nail file after that. Regardless, I'll definitely be going back. Very high quality work. read more

While visiting in Chicago, we planned to start celebrating my daughter's 25th birthday by getting massages and manicures. We were quite disappointed with the cold and condescending response we received. She told us that we needed an appointment although their website clearly states that we did not! So we were willing to tweek our services to fit their plan, at that time she told us that we should just try another place! I said ok, if you don't want my business and she agreed that she did not want our business....so we graciously took our money and left. I do not recommend NAS salon on Clark St. in Chicago, Illinois. read more

I received the most perfect no chip manicure from Nas herself. I've never had anyone pay SO much attention to my nails! It was an amazing experience and she spent a good amount of time helping me pick a color. Clean place. Staff was kind and professional. My nails have never looked so amazing. read more

I've been to Nas twice now and had great experiences both times! Each time I went I got a normal pedicure and a gel manicure. Each time I had a different nail tech. They were both really nice and did meticulous jobs. It's been a month since I went in and my pedicure is still 100% perfect. They didn't ask me if I wanted a drink either time but I saw the reviews that said they offer free drinks so I asked for peppermint tea the last time I was there. I will definitely be going back soon! read more

I came to Nas a couple of weeks ago to get a pedicure and a no-chip manicure. Overall it was great service. The woman doing my nails (her name escapes me but I will update later if it comes to me! Jessie? AH, I can't remember) did a fantastic job. She chatted with me a little bit but mostly let me relax. The place looked clean and tidy, which I thoroughly appreciate. Also, I loved the assortment of colors! I'm new to the city and was *very* surprised at how expensive it was to get a pedicure and gel manicure. When all was said and done, I ended up paying $75 (including tip; and I paid in cash so you get a small discount for that, which is great). This is compared to the $50 I spent in Washington DC, so it was pretty shocking. I am looking at my nails now almost 2 weeks later, and they look nearly perfect--which is awesome and helps take away the sting of the price. The other thing that I will not dock points for but is a point to make--the owner was having a conversation with another small business owner right next to me about how they hate yelp and the people who dis businesses on Yelp. I totally get it! People can be jerks on Yelp. However, I found Nas because of Yelp...so don't hate on Yelp and especially not in front of customers. Overall, I had a great experience and will likely come back! I'll just be ready for the price next time! read more

i went on long enough without getting my nails done and desperately needed some good pampering. Now i walked passed this cute little salon that caught my eye and of course i had to try em out. I was greeted by not just the receptionist but EVERYONE! awww everyone is soo sweet and nice! Everyone was very accommodated and i swear i felt like a little princess. haha! massage chair - 5 stars ....great for my tense back from a hard day of work. hot soothing green tea- 5 stars...awesome! especially when its cold out. no chip manicures -10 stars!.....good for me cause im a hairdresser and i constantly have my hands in water! it's been a almost two weeks and theres no chips yet! regular nail polish would only last me a week. pedicure- 5 stars---very relaxing with a good conversation. Everyone can actually speak english so that eliminates the whole 'guess what my manicurist is saying' game. waxing- 5 stars.... bye bye unibrow and hello two beautiful arched brows which accentuates MY WHOLE FACE!!!! too all my make-up artists out there you know what i am talking about! Pricing- 5 stars as seen in the pictures this salon looks really nice and high end but the prices are wayyyyy affordable :) just my cup of tea! read more

I'm writing this as my favorite manicurist, Kelly, does an extraordinary job cleaning each and every cuticle on my toes, that's right my toes... Nas doesn't just do your normal run-of-the-mill pedicures, and after going here for the last year and a half I feel cheated when I'm back in the burbs and forced to go somewhere else. All their manicurist do an exceptional job and take their time, rather than making you feel like you're being rushed through, or the product of an assembly line. And the end result is worth the relaxing 45+ minutes of sitting in that magical robot chair. I don't care who you are, but getting a pedicure is one of the top 3 best feelings in this world, arguably top 2 if Kelly's the one who's the one doing it ;) But seriously, all the girls are good. I've seen other "tips" commenting on the cost of their no chip manicures. Yes, they're $40, and yes they're worth every penny! Again, I reiterate how they take their time and really pay attention to detail. They will never allow you to walk out with polish on your skin or cuticles and the polish lasts so long (I'm attributing it to their technique and fact that the don't skimp on the coats). After 2 weeks, I still get compliments on my nails-- no joke! Other bonuses: super nice and clean! Everything is sanitized and the girls wear gloves. They give you a complimentary beverage and don't care if you bring in your own wine to drink while getting your nails done. The girls are social and normal, unfortunately for Kelly she knows some secrets I haven't even told my friends and is always makes me laugh during every appointment. You can text them for an appointment in advance during business hours and they will get back to you rather quickly! So, please, don't waste your time, or money by going anywhere else and just go to Nas! read more

I feel badly writing a negative review, but the owners left their shop management/reservations to someone who is terrible at running it all. she mixes up appointments, doesn't know which nail tech is working when...I'm disappointed because I've been coming here for a year, but need to find another salon now that it's become impossible to deal with her. read more

Just plain fabulous. I live in the South Loop, but decided to try Nas after reading so many great reviews on their no-chip manicures. I tried no-chip for the first time at my usual salon, but was slightly disappointed. My nails didn't chip, but the polish didn't go all the way down to my cuticle, so it looked like there was outgrowth from the start. The polish also wasn't quite even, so I just wasn't thrilled. But I did like the idea of no-chip, so I decided to give it another shot - this time at Nas. I made an appointment for tonight at 6, which I was able to do through text. Unfortunately, I was delayed getting out of work and was 20 minutes late for my appointment. I was nervous that they wouldn't be able to take me, but it wasn't a problem. They have a HUGE no-chip selection. Seriously. I chose a sparkly red polish and my technician (whose name I didn't catch) got to work. She did a great job in removing my old no-chip and was quick but thorough in applying my new polish. She made sure that everything was even and it went down to the base of my nail (hurray!). My nails look awesome. The color is so pretty and sparkly, and I'm thrilled that it will last me a few weeks. A no-chip manicure is $40 (including removal of a previous no-chip), and I'll definitely be making this my regular spot. Everyone who was working was super nice and the place is relaxing and clean. I love it! read more

This place is my new jam! Their skills are superior to any nail salon I've ever been in. I came upon the Yelp review for this after a very frustrating morning driving out to the suburbs for a manicure, only to realize I had forgotten my credit card at home. Needless to say, after having made the commute, I was over the idea of any more driving. Enter Nas. I have no reason to ever drive/taxi/train farther than Lakeview for a mani/pedi for the following reasons: *Cleanest facility I have ever seen *All tools (including buffers) are taken from sterile packaging *Steps in the mani/pedi process are not rushed and executed with the utmost attention to detail *Overall paint application is flawless (like, Vogue photo shoot flawless) *Technicians actually communicate with their clients *Their no-chip selection is ridiculous *All staff are fun and friendly, including offering refreshments After having dealt with my fair share of salon hopping around various neighborhoods it was nice to finally find my place this afternoon. Thank you Nas!!! read more
