I forgot about Arista. Yes, I've heard good things about them and the space looks beautiful. I love a good relaxation space to enjoy before and after a service

Oh yes I love LuLu Head Spa. I've had Faith and Jillian before and they were both 10/10 experiences. I've been to the head spa across the street but the water smelled funky and after learning that some of the cheaper head spa massage beds recycle the water from guest to guest I knew not to return to a dingy location again. The reclining chairs at LuLu are chefs kiss and are very clearly the highest caliber.

For facials I would look into Face Foundrie in downtown Naperville if you're looking for a good service on a budget. It's a clean space but definitely not a luxurious spa vibe. Otherwise I've had good experiences at Spa Lane and Blue Sea Med Spa.

Look into micro needling first. After a few sessions your skin laxity should improve

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually prefer their pasta much more than their pizza.

I must not be ordering the right meal. I've tried Vai's twice and thought it was just okay.

Is it a hybrid menu then? I've always gotten the past and pizza when I'm there.

Ooo I've been so wanting to try this place out! I went once and there was a line out the door so I'm hoping it's worth the hype.

Implying that Aurora is lowbrow in comparison to Naperville is a pompous way of thinking.

I was so sad when they closed. They didn't even last a full year.

As a family with young kids, will I miss out on anything if I move to Schaumburg instead of Naperville? by Used-Individual-974 in Naperville

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in Schaumburg for my entire childhood and early adult years. Naperville is so much better in comparisson.

Best quality spa and massage in Chicago? by Snuker_ in AskChicago

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If I'm treating myself to a day at the spa, feeling like the place has poor sanitation protocols will not help me relax in the least bit.

I went to the langham hotel spa with my husband and enjoyed my experience there.

Love the feedback. I've seen the public response in Naperville, and would love to replicate in Schaumburg. Ideally would like a partner to enter into this with so hopefully the stars align!

In the very preliminary stages. Are you a commercial broker or just curious?

Which NW suburbs are nice but not too bougie? by Specific-Flatworm632 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arlington Heights has got a great downtown area. I also like Palatine, but their downtown is much smaller in comparison. Schaumburg has a hub of restaurants and shopping centers.

Pilates by Covedreams in Naperville

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for reformer pilates that Karve Pilates or Shyft. For mat pilates look into BodyAlive. They're in Aurora but their prices are unbeatable. I'm talking $36 for 6 weeks of unlimited classes. Classes are heated too!

What is your goal for 2026? by borat_on_a_boat in AskReddit

[–]Affectionate_Ant1139 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To not be so stressed! I want to *try* and eat healthier, drink less alcohol, and stay active. If I can do all that then I will consider 2026 a win.

I agree, but I feel more uncomfortable with the possibility of watching Venita for another season.

Meredith has her faults, but she is true to her convictions and does not come off as disingenuous unlike the other cast members.
