They are just the best! I would never go anywhere else. They are so friendly and they pay attention to cleanliness!

I have been going to Alicia for manicures and pedicures for several years now. I have Never had bad service. Alicia and her sister are always welcoming. The foot and leg massage is wonderful. Alicia makes you feel extremely comfortable. It is a pleasure to go there. Plus, they keep their salon immaculately clean! Treat you like you are a guest in their home. You really should try it! read more

I had an appointment at Iris today for a no-chip manicure, pedicure (on special!), and eyebrow wax. I am very happy with the entire experience. The salon is quaint, comfortable and nicely decorated. The sister owners are very nice and welcoming. I really enjoyed the no chip manicure, and I'm glad I went with the maroon color. The pedicure was also great, and much more sanitary in that the entire foot spa is cleaned in between clients. They offered me coffee and water throughout my stay. The pedicure was done very well, and the massage was very long--including hot stones! I loved it. Finally, I was very pleased with the eyebrow wax. She shaped my brows and gave me some beauty tips. All and all a very good experience, I will definitely return. read more

My fiance has been coming to this place for years and she always says great things about it. This past weekend she finally talked me into getting a manicure for the first time in my life. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised, because I heard lots of horror stories from my friends about other nail saloons. This place was charming, nicely decorated, quiet, very clean and it had a friendly atmosphere (very relaxing). The owners were very nice and extremely hospitable. They offered me hot tea, coffee and some extremely delicious sweet treats (yummy!!!). There was lots of parking just a few feet away from the front door, which is always a plus. The bathroom was also very clean, which shows that the owners take care and pride in their business (from my experience, a dirty bathroom is always a dead giveaway that a business is poorly ran). Lastly, and I think that is the most important part, is that the tools that they used were clean and sanitized. Overall I would give Irys an A++ rating. I am extremely satisfied with my first manicure and I had lots of fun getting it. I am really not sure where all these negative reviews came from, because my experience was just the opposite. I definitely recommend this place, if you are looking for some pampering. read more

Not the the experience I expected. I scheduled my no-chip manicure along with a pedicure. Alicia immediately told me that I would be charged $5.00 to $10.00 to remove my old no-chip product. The pedicure was something you would do at home with a vibrating foot bath and a couple of herbs thrown in for good measure. The rushed pedicure resulted in clipping the under skin of my small toe. Quite painful. Alicia informed me that I was getting a deal because her pedicure is normally $50.00. She bad mouthed Living Social clients throughout the manicure and stated that purchasing a voucher was a "crap shoot". This, along with not having the nail polish to do a french manicure was beyond belief as I only get french manicures. It's a "nail salon" that cannot provide a french manicure, absolutely shocking. She claimed that not having the white polish was not her fault. I did not get what I wanted, I was charged $5.00 to remove my old polish, I paid $25.00 for pain, and the hand massage lasted just under 2 minutes per hand. I have never been so rushed or made to feel so uncomfortable before. Sadly, I have two more vouchers and I must go back right away. My polish chipped. read more

I had a living social coupon for a no chip manicure. I've never had such a bad experience at a salon. The manicure lasted less than 15 min. Alicia filed nails unevenly, no buff, & barely any cuticle removal. I washed hands & she painted my nails very unevenly, lotions my hands and that's it. I've done a better no chip myself. In addition, she asked me at the very beginning of manicure if I would come back & why did I wait so long to use coupon after all I had six months, then asked if who I go to is certified. Then criticized the other no chip products calling them fake. When I look at my nail color it's so uneven and bumpy. Before I left she asked if I'd be back, if so, I need to make an appointment now and she was persistent, rude. Not worth a 1 star. Not worth the discounted price neither. Disappointed customer read more

I bought a living social voucher for a no chip manicure and was very pleased. I used it just before my 2 week wedding/honeymoon vacation and it lasted the entire trip and then some. Alicia was very friendly and talked with me throughout my service. read more

Small, but nice. If you are looking for a fancy place, this may not be the one for you. However, if you're near Arlington Heights and just want simple and straight forward service without all the frills, consider Iris. My Experience: My appointment was for the no-chip manicure using the Living Social coupon, so convenient and inexpensive is what I was looking for. I was greeted nicely, offered iced tea & cookies and had a very pleasant and funny conversation during the manicure...I enjoyed the experience. No complaints about the service or the result. Will be back. read more

I purchased a Living Social voucher for a no chip manicure for both myself and my mom and was pretty disappointed with the manicure. The place itself was quaint and nice and the woman who did our nails was plenty friendly, but the manicure itself was pretty awful. The colors we picked from the plastic nails did not match how the colors appeared on our nails. I had picked a deep purple-y wine color and it ended up looking like a dark red/maroon. And despite having two coats put on, the color was still not fully opaque. My mom chose a shimmery cream color that ended up looking like she had put on some clear top coat when she was finished. I'm not sure if it was the product's fault or the technician's, but needless to say, I left feeling like my nails would have looked nicer had I just done them myself with regular nail polish. read more

I went to Iris Salon with a friend, and we both had the living social vouchers for no-chip manicures. Alicia was so friendly and genuine. We both really enjoyed talking with her while getting our nails done. The salon is nicely decorated, and smells nice. We were offered cookies and beverages as well. She even gave us beauty tips on taking care of our nails, skin, etc. Sweet woman! My nails were beautiful and I didn't have a single chip until after the 2 week mark! Very Satisfied, and I will be back! read more

I bought a Living Social voucher for a no-chip manicure. First, the good news. The no-chip is holding up better than regular nail polish. I am a goldsmith, so my nails get damaged very fast. After three days, the polish is still very pretty, and in much better shape than any regular polish would be. Now the bad news. I have not had tons of manicures, but all the others I have had focused on pampering. At Iris, I was sent to the sink to wash my hands (no soaking). When my polish was removed, it revealed the stains under my nails (that's why I wear polish-- I'm a goldsmith-- my nails get stained!) Other salons have dealt with this with aplomb. At Iris, I was sent back to the sink and told to use the brush. The application took 40 minutes, during which I was subjected to an almost uninterrupted stream of complaints, from how little she was making off the Living Social manicures, to why teachers do not deserve their pay. Also, before I realized what was happening, she shortened all my nails to match my shortest (broken) nail. So now they ALL need to grow out, not just 1 or 2. So, gee, I wonder why Living Social has not generated repeat business! Two stars because I got to try no-chip for only $15, and I'm feeling generous. read more

Horrible service! Alicia was very rude and the No Chip manicure was awful! She rushed through it. Thankfully I had a living social coupon and did not need to pay full price. I will never go back there again. read more

terrible service and charged for removing no chip which was not specified during the appointment. She was rude and didnt value her costumers. we used a living social coupon which she wasnt pleased with either. read more

Been coming here for 15+ years and have had no complaints. Alicja has been doing my nails since high school and soon will be doing my nails for my wedding in a month. Always professional, nice, listen's to your concerns and most importantly is SANITARY. I once went to another salon in downtown Glen Ellyn just to experience something else and was sorry I went. I immediately called Alicja and scheduled a follow up with her. If you want a cheap, fast manicure than you can go to any chop house you want, but don't buy a living social coupon thinking you'll get the same thing at Iris Nails and Skin Salon. It's a little more pricey but worth it! Quality and sanitation are key! read more

Used the living social coupon for a non-chip manicure, which looks worst now then it did when I entered this place. First of all they are rude on the phone and are very rude once I entered the salon. My manicure is chipping 2 days after I got it done. Complete waste of $$$ and my time. Will never visti this place again and will make sure that none of my friends will .Also will contact living social about this, that this place is a complete dump!!!! read more

I purchased a Living Social voucher for a no chip manicure. I had a horrible experience from the moment I tried to schedule an appointment. Since I had the voucher, she only gave me 3 possible dates to schedule. 2 of which I couldn't make since I have a full-time job and work during the day. Unfortunately, the experience only got worse on the day of. She was extremely rude and provided the worst customer service I've ever experienced. She insisted that she was doing a great job even though it only lasted 15 minutes. I've had no-chip manicures done plenty of times before to know that it takes a lot longer than 15 minutes. I would never return and would never recommend this place to anyone. Honestly, I'm not one to write reviews (this is my first), but I had to because of the horrendous experience. read more
