Finding the right place to live means choosing an area that keeps you close to things that matter most to you. And for self-care, there’s nothing quite like a fresh mani & pedi to get you feeling clean and looking good. But who wants to leave the nail salon during those April showers to be stuck walking to the bus or train, waiting, bouncing around on public transit waiting for someone to step on your toes and ruin your nails?

If you need a nail salon, Hyde Park Chicago offers many great options. And lucky for you, you can quickly walk home post-appointment! Here are a few to note below:

It can’t get more close to home than Bettye O Day Spa, located directly across the street from our Ivy Residences main office. While they don’t have the most convenient hours, being closed Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and every other Saturday and not being open past 4:30pm, their reviews don’t lie – 4.7 stars on Google out of 80 reviews at the time of publication.

At Bettye O, you can not only get your nails done, but relax and refresh with massages, facials, hydrotherapy, body wraps, and waxing. Truly a one-stop shop in the heart of Hyde Park!
