About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while getting her hair done at Bliss Beauty Salon, an elderly woman noticed something strange happening outside. A little girl kept pointing and giggling as she watched the manicurist’s reflection in the window, who seemed to be talking to someone invisible. The old lady leaned closer to see better and realized that the manicurist was chatting away with her own reflection in the window! She burst out laughing, turning heads inside the salon. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Bliss, they’d say, ‘Oh, you must’ve been there when the lady talked to herself!’
2. While waiting for her nails to dry at Bliss Hair & Nails, a young mom overheard two neighbors discussing something unusual. ‘Did you hear?’ one said, ‘The new delivery guy always parks right in front of our house!’ ‘He must be delivering packages non-stop,’ another neighbor chimed in with a smile. The mom couldn’t help but giggle as she imagined the poor guy running around all day. When her nails finally dried, she walked out and saw him—standing outside their gate, holding a bouquet of flowers.’
3. While having her mani-pedi at Bliss Hair & Nails, a neighborhood mom noticed something strange in the reflection of the mirror. Every time she looked up, her little girl’s favorite teddy bear seemed to be watching her from behind the wall. Finally, she asked the nail artist if there was really a teddy bear stuck behind the wall. Turns out it was just an old mannequin from the previous salon tenant, who had been ‘watching’ customers for years without anyone noticing. Everyone had a good laugh, and the mom left with a new appreciation for the hidden decorations at Bliss Hair & Nails.
4. On a particularly foggy morning in downtown Chicago, as customers sipped coffee and waited for their haircuts at Bliss Hair & Nails, a delivery driver parked his truck suspiciously close to the entrance. The delivery driver pretended to check his clipboard, then casually glanced inside, causing everyone to freeze mid-sip. Turned out he was just delivering a package of nail polish remover. As the tension lifted, a regular whispered, 'Guess that’s why they say “Bliss” in the name.' Everyone chuckled, and life went back to normal—until someone noticed the new shade of glitter on display.
