It's dark and weirdly quiet. I asked for a gel manicure and the lady in the front didn't know what I was talking about (she was also barefoot). A lady came out of the back and asked if I wanted no chip, which I did, so she told me to pick a color and that it'd be $35. That's pretty average but I found it weird that there was only one nail station. She came back in a few minutes with a male customer who appeared really flustered, I'm hoping he was just getting a massage, but who knows. The color selection wasn't great, but she did a really good job cleaning up my nails and was very nice! She even offered to do a third coat if I wanted, even though the service only lists two, and made sure I got a good quality color and that I liked the color I was getting. She took her time and I'm happy with my no chip manicure, though I do have some questions about the rest of the business. read more

Paradise Unisex Spa - Massage Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

If you're a woman don't come here! We are not the target customer whatsoever. I live above this place and needed my no chip removed at the last minute before a flight. I had fully intended to get my nails redone but with the way that everything started, I got a horrible vibe and wanted to get out as quickly as possible. The staff seemed shocked when I arrived and wanted an actual manicure; and looked at my nails forever before deciding that they could take me. She even went as far to say that my nails still looked nice and I didn't need it redone. They don't have that many colors available either. The woman who did my nails was nice enough, but she had none of the right tools to remove a no-chip easily, so it was just a really long weird process. There were way too many private rooms in the back for a normal spa/nail salon. The staff are definitely doing more than what's advertised. read more

This place needs a full investigation into their very shady practices! Gel manicures and foot massages are certainly a cover up. Stay away.

I took a bad fall last year and needed help. The staff was very receptive to my issues as i had a lot of pain. The Foot massage /Reflexology helped a lot. Just be sure to tell them how much pressure you like / need. The staff was very nice and professional. read more

OK manicure, but I could have done the same at home in about the half the time. It might be the weird hours - manicures until 5 or so, "other services" until 10 or 11 - or the employees that kept trying to push the massage services. Maybe the fact that the only clientele I've noticed (and I live around the corner) are men? Something rubs me the wrong way here. read more

So, well let me start off by saying that I was warned by a couple of co-workers that there was a little more than nails being done here, so I was a little skeptical about trying this place, but I was in desperate need of a Manicure and Eyebrow Wax; as this place is right across the street from my job, I really had no other choice but to go during my Lunch. I went in about 2:00 pm on a Monday and was out in about a little over an hour, maybe not quite even that long. The Nail Tech, which I believe was also the Owner, was very pleasant and engaged me in conversation during my Manicure. The place is stocked with a pretty decent range of colors from OPI and some other brands. For awhile I was the only customer in the place, not too long after a gentleman came in looking for a Pedicure, and was almost forced into going in the back for a "massage". All-in-All the experience was a pleasant one and the Manicure was done nicely. My Eyebrows, left a little to be desired, but to be fair, I do have quite difficult eyebrows to work with, so I won't take away too much for that. Prices aren't bad, around what you would expect from a Loop Location Nail Salon/Spa. read more

I stopped in here because I was walking by and noticed they had a combination deal for reflexology and massage for only $39. Always looking for a bargain, I thought I would check it out. I had never had a reflexology treatment before and I must say it was amazing. They explained each part of the foot they were working on and what part of the body it connected to. I literally had this chronic pain in my hip completely disappear. The massage was just icing on the cake. I've had many massages and it was certainly in my top 5-10%! read more

I received a massage from a male therapist which I requested. It was odd and somewhat uncomfortable. You could hear the women talking the whole time in the next room. I carpet on the floor looks like maybe 10 years old. The therapist kept taking calls, texting and even left the room a couple of times...and there I lay on the table naked (a towel over me) with the door swinging open as he entered and exited. It was a bit pricey especially for the quality. Don't walk a away.....RUN! read more

I wouldn't let these people touch me if I was stranded on an island and had no hands!! I'm serious. I'm really trying to keep my business in the neighborhood so I stopped in to have them do my nails and it did not go well. To make a long story short, it took over an hour and she was only halfway done when I finally just left. Why did I leave with my nails (acrylics) half done? Because she drew blood! It was so bad I actually let out a loud YELP and the others came out from the backroom to see what was going on. They remain in business and are open some interesting hours for a salon so I'm sure they are good at something, just not the services I'm in need of....... read more

I walked into this establishment to receive a polish change on hands and feet. Unfortunately I was refused service due to the color of my sking. After refusal of service I was then asked if I lived in the area which I do not see why I'm even being asked that question overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone !!! Poor Service, and when asked where is the manager the lady just pushed the door close on me....... read more

DONT GO HERE!!! NOOOOOOOOOO DONT DO ITTTT resist the temptation of a convenient location- dont make the same mistake i did .. and apparently the other yelper before me. her review was made just a week ago.. does that mean this place is STILL open!? i used to live right around there a few months ago and went in to get a pedicure and a cut and color change on my hands. honestly, why did i pay for a lady to put nail polish all over skin?!??! my nails were super sharp and not filed correctly. the chick had NO idea how to apply nailpolish. my 4 yr old niece can apply it better than she could. i had her re-apply it on my nails and i remember showing her how to do it.. and she couldnt figure out what she was doing wrong. um HALLO- if theres clumps all over my nails and the nail polish doesnt cover the entire nail and instead is all over my skin.. there is SOMETHING wrong with that. i felt so bad bc my friend was visiting from out of town and this is the gdamn nail place i took her to. the pedicure was just as bad if not worse. i actually went home and took the nail polish off. there was no point in trying to go back and have her do it over, cuz she flippin sucked. anyways.. since this experience, i have never wanted to try another nail place in chicago. i stick to the best - Orchard nails in Naperville. i dont care if its 30 mins away, i always leave with the most amazing nails at a much cheaper price than this horrendous place. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE BEAUTIFUL PEDICURE CHAIRS. DONT GO HERRE!! SAVE UR MONEY! SERIOUSLY. read more

Creepy and weird - and those are the good points. I am a typical guy and I am completely aware of the "extra" services some day spas offer, but this place is over the top and should be avoided. I noticed the other reviews from women, but take it from a man too: heed and run. Let's just say that I declined the offer for a massage (both the single and the 4 hands!). I wonder how much longer this place will be in business. read more

This place is filthy, and they have signs inside stating that they are not responsible for infections. Something tells me that the city health inspectors might just have a different take on that statement. Yuck! read more

I'm not sure where my original review went, so I'm writing again. I got the WORST set of acrylics done here, and had to fight to get my money back. I don't know for sure, but it appears to me that something about this business isn't exactly kosher. read more

I read the bad reviews here and I didn't relate to any of them. The place was clean and everyone was friendly. My husband and I got a couples massage there. I recommend this place. After a long day walking all over Chicago, it was a nice retreat and we will visit again next time we're in the area. read more

Would rate it zero if that was an option. I was next door getting my phone fixed, went to salon to ask if they did eyebrows was told "no, come back tomorrow", asked how much a pedicure cost, was told "we're closed". I was then escorted out & door was locked behind me. She gave me the dirtiest, meanest look. I went to Starbucks & on way back to the phone place I passed by salon, door was wide open. I don't get it, is it because of my skin color? read more

This was the worst nail salon I ever went to, starting with them telling me they didn't do no chips, even though they had the no chip colors in plain view and my friend had gotten one there before. When I pushed her on getting one she said the lady who does them was tired. That should have been my cue to leave. In hindsight I realize they wanted me out of there because they wanted to serve their male clientele. There are absolutely some sketchy things happening in there. From 7 - 7:15 the men just kept piling in. I was so uncomfortable I left. You may not think this is strange but why did the female employee who came in for her 7:00 shift strip down from her winter gear to daisy Dukes and a camisole... Hardly the masseuse outfit. But I digress. In an effort to get me out In a hurry, the girl doing my nails said a different girl was gonna do my massage. This was the lady that came out from the back flossing her teeth. So gross. I wanted the 20 min massage they had posted in their mani/pedi packages and again in an effort to get me out fast before 7:00 the lady told me only 15 minutes. But I called her out on that and she said fine. 10 min on my legs and feet, 10 min on my back and shoulders. During my leg massage she was on the phone, calling, answering and giving me the worst massage ever with one hand. For the shoulders and neck part, she put me in a chair in front of the cold door. I will NOT be coming here again read more

Very nice place and nice people. Jam babe is a liar. There is no phone place there and no Starbucks. Typical racist liar.

DONT GO HERE! They don't know what they are doing! They don't even deserve one star. They messed up my eyebrows!!! I asked if they did eyebrows and she seemed confused with what I asked her, she answered yes and told me 15$ we went in to this little room and mind you this place is humid and smells bad. She then proceed but still seemed confused with what was going on. I should have stopped her there and walked out but I was giving her chance. She goes on and does my left eyebrow and waxes half of it off!!! I begin to yell at her, which i don't like to do, but this pissed me off. Seconds later women from the back of the room heard the yelling and came to see what was going on. The lady insisted on a free one hour massage, but I stormed off with out paying and one and half eyebrows. I later yelp this location, which I should have done in the first place, and I learn that this isn't the first time that someone storms off with out paying. I also learn that this place is also not a typical "spa" I really don't understand why they are still open and why they put up a front like they know what they are doing. read more

Great pedicure,was done nicely,employees that trying call me massage,I will try next time because have dated later. Good place to go....
