Mantrap Nails Salon - Basic pedicure and fill in !!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I was over all satisfied with my nails. Not used to paying 40$ to get my nails done but it was very clean and the staff was nice.. I went on a Monday so the service was really fast read more

For the most part this nail salon is pretty great. You get a good service for a good price. I've had my nails done poorly twice though, but I did come back in to get them fixed. I don't recommend them for dip powder. read more

This nail salon is an absolute joke. Idk where to start. First of all I got there and there were two very ratchet, scary, vulgar looking women just finishing up being as loud as can be which was irritating. Me and a friend went there to get our nails done, exciting Saturday afternoon, weathers nice we came in a good mood and left in a tornado. Two older gentlemen did our nails. One did an okay job, didn't shape correctly on mine and looked funky, didn't like them but I was distracted that my friend basically got told she was an indecisive moron. The older gentleman said "you're ruining my work" because my friend was being indecisive about her shape, which is normal... women are indecisive. If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. In a nail salon you're going to get indecisive women !!! Surprise surprise. My nails were done and she was barely getting them still filed, the man took forever on her. She got upset because he already ruined her mood and on top of it he was taking forever. She walked out with acrylic nails that were shaped like sausages and not even filled correctly. She didn't even have polish on !! And she paid them 20 something dollars and left with naked acrylic nails. After examining them and mine I drove back and demanded a refund. She didn't want to be rude but I was absolutely disgusted. The lady fixed my nails and hers for free after explained how horrible the man was to her and her nails but my friend didn't want to come back. The guy came again to counter to yell at us for being loud with the lady in the front. I went back the next day, they fixed mine but they still were funky. Whatever. They wanted to charge me before I left , they took forever to dry and I had to come in 3 mins after being in my car for them to touch up another nail that smudged. HORRIBLE ruined my day(s) and wasted my time. CNN nails fixed them and now they look beautiful and lasted three weeks. Never again. read more

This is my first time visiting this location and I can genuinely say I enjoyed it. Sam seemed very knowledgeable and he wasn't rough like some other places I've been to. He didn't talk much, but neither did I. I will be back again when I need a color change. I think this will be my go to location. read more

This is the first time I get my pedicure done somewhere new. I've been going to the same pedi spot for years but it was closed. Mantrap was a great experience! All of the nail associates were kind and attentive, all smiles! They also took their time doing my pedicure. No one was rushing their customers' service. I will be going back and bringing my mom! read more

I was really hopeful about this place :/. And I never write bad reviews. But i got there and it honestly smelled like feet in the salon :/. The water was not hot enough but the towels they wrapped my feet in burned my feet. My whole foot was red I'll take a picture and show it. My feet is also not smooth on the bottom. Rush job. And I will not be back. Also very small section to dry your feet at. I had to climb all over someone to get to my seat in the corner. Terrible. read more

Update. I got my no chip mani pedi Saturday 05/19/2018 it is now Tuesday 05/22/2018 and my no chip mani started lifting at the cuticles causing it to snag and pull my hair and my pedi has 2 chipped off toes, and I'm not talking little chips I'm talking half chipped off. Terrible quality not even 1 week!!?? Not worth it even for $25 a service it should last at least 1 week. I won't be coming back unless I feel like tossing money away. read more

I wanted to love this place. I really did. I had about 3 visits. My first was really great. Nice job on a gel no chip refill. Second time, not so great. Sure it was a different nail tech, but still. Gel overlay was way too thick despite my frequents requests to keep it thin. I always scope out the place while im waiting or getting my nails done. I thought it was interesting that it appeared that they use the same tools on everybody. No immediate sanitation of the tools was observed. However, I thought maybe that was just me. The third time I went, I noticed a brown/green spot on my nail bed. They said it was because I needed a new full set and that I should do that my next time in. They ended up rushing me through as the salon got busier. I went home and did research. Found out that spot was a bacterial infection. Needless to say, I removed the gel overlay and treated the infection. Yep, gross! To make matters worse, I spoke with a coworker who also frequented the salon and stated she had an ongoing issue with one of her nails as well. The technicians minimized the severity of it. She ended up losing the entire nail and is in the process of it growing back. Yep. This place is a writhing cesspool of bacteria. Sorry, Man Trap! Your prices are pretty great, but get what you pay for (plus a little infection here and there). No thanks! read more

What a wonderful experience! The nail technicians are extremely attentive, and friendly. I would most definitely recommend to friends and family! Above all very economical and great selection of services. read more

Horrible service! Very unprofessional. Came in for a manicure and pedicure. Worker put paper towels in between toes to separate them. Then she puts on my flip flops and the nail color smudges. For the manicure I told her I wanted color age misunderstood and thought I wanted just color so after I told her you didn't take off the dead skin abd everything else she had the nerve to say next time tell me you want manicure and not just color. When I told her I wrote it down age just stayed quiet. Didn't want her to finish the manicure and left. Will never return, so unfortunate. read more

I went in not expecting much... They are friendly, and do a great job! They do fantastic no-chip manicures and they are reasonably priced. I happen to get a special $20 no-chip well worth it! They have luxury pedicures the best foot massages!! I will definitely be back here! They offer drinks as well. read more

I would give this place 1 star it's okay not the best place. This was my first time going here & this place sucks. Don't go here. Idk why ppl lie about this place. They are dirty & don't sterilize their tools. Also their nail technique sucks. I dislike how they glued a cheap plastic nail on top of my actual nail & then added the acrylic part. I asked for acrylic coffin nails & they were all crooked & ugly. The lady used scissors to make the coffin shape instead of filing them smh! It hasn't even been 2 weeks yet & one nail already broke. I'm not coming here I was highly disappointed.Never again. read more

Great pedicure and lip/brow waxing. Very nice staff, clean place. Wish this was closer to home!

I went Xmas eve they were very busy. I did have to wait but staff did what they could to move as fast as possible. Good service, friendly and comparable prices for the area. Great selection of color and they can match you regular pedi color to your mani no chip color. My no chip lasted about 10 days when it generally lasts about 2 weeks from other places, not sure if necessarily their fault or mine. read more

First time at this nail salon. Went on a Monday afternoon and they were not busy and took me right away. Also received a discount on Mon/Tues. Had a spa pedicure and a no chip manicure. Two different guys did the work. One did the pedicure and another did the manicure. I found that odd, but they both did good work. I am very pleased with the results and will go back again. The shop is clean, the workers are friendly and the results are good. read more

I don't know why the hours are listed as 8pm when the door list them at 7pm. Waste of time and a bit rude. Next time I am going to stick to my regular place. read more

Great customer service, reasonable prices and they do a great job on my nails! :)
