• If you have a preference for a specific nail technician or artist, let us know. Otherwise, we'll match you with the next available specialist.

• If you're unsure about add-ons like nail art or callus treatment, it's better to include them in your booking. You can always remove them later if needed. But remember, adding them later might not be possible due to availability.

Booking Your Appointment:

Nail Art Designs:

• This helps us match you with an artist who can bring your desired design to life.

Preferred Technician/Artist:

• If you have a favorite nail tech or artist, tell us when you book. We'll make sure to schedule you with them upon request.

• We won't change appointments booked with a specific technician or artist without your consent, as we value your preferences.

• If you're booking multiple services like a manicure and pedicure, you can choose to have them done consecutively or simultaneously by different technicians. Concurrent appointments are only available when booking by phone or text.

Confirmation and Communication:

Here are a few things to consider before arriving for your appointment.

When you arrive at BeautyBar, you'll be greeted with a smile. Although returning a smile is optional, we highly recommend it! Our objective is to spread happiness and positivity to all our clients. With that said, we have a zero-tolerance policy against rude and belligerent behavior.

While you are welcome to use your phone for entertainment during your appointment, we kindly ask that you refrain from talking on the phone so as not to disturb others. If you need to take a call, we ask that you step outside of the salon to do so.

We have two delightful Shih Tzus, Bella and Bobby, who adore people but can become territorial around other dogs. You're welcome to bring in your fur baby to meet BellaBob, but please let us know in advance.

Children of all ages are welcome at BeautyBar. However, if you bring an underage guest into the salon, please make sure they are supervised. If your guest disrupts others, we'll politely ask you to reschedule your appointment.

Your appointments are very important to us. We hold your appointments just for you & ask that if you must cancel or reschedule an appointment, please provide us with 24 hours' notice. This way, our staff can adjust their schedules accordingly & can accommodate clients on our waiting list. In order to provide first-class service to all our clients, we will enforce our cancellation policy as follows:

Notification given at least 24 hours prior to your appointment time will receive no charges.

Notification given less than 24 hours prior to your appointment time will result in a charge of 50% of the reserved service amount.

We understand unavoidable issues do arise & we will do our best to work with you in case of an emergency.

If you will be late for an appointment, we appreciate a call or text us before your appointment time. If we're not notified in advance, your appointment will be canceled 10 minutes past the appointment time as a no-show and we'll require a 50% deposit for your next booking. Thank you for making every effort to help us keep our salon's appointments flowing efficiently.

Our team of highly skilled artists are dedicated to producing exceptional work and take great pride in the quality of their services. This is why we confidently offer a 7-day guarantee on all our nail enhancement services.

If you encounter any issues with the quality of your nails within the first 7 days of your appointment, please inform us, and we will address the issue at no additional cost to you. We stand by our work and want to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the result.

Please note that accidental breakage is not covered under this guarantee. However, if you experience any quality issues, simply inform us within the 7-day window, and we will arrange for a repair appointment.

Although we prefer not to fix work created by other salons, we do so quite often. Each nail salon or specialist employs unique techniques and processes when crafting nail enhancements, which requires us to identify the products and application methods employed by the previous salon before safely addressing any issues with the nails. This complexity adds to the challenge of our job, yet we seldom decline repair requests unless the nails are unhealthy. Once repair clients witness our gentle and meticulous approach, they usually book for future appointments.

It all comes down to trust, something that's deeply ingrained in everything we do.

We understand your commitment to self-care, and that's why we're your trusted partner on this journey. Here are a few commitments we've made with you in nurturing your well-being:

Unwavering Excellence: We're all about maintaining top-notch quality. Operating by appointment only ensures that every visit guarantees the same exceptional service. We're dedicated to exceeding our own high standards, giving you consistency you can count on.

Trusted Connection: Our bond goes beyond business. It's built on trust, reliability, and genuine care. We cherish the relationships we've nurtured over time. When families trust us across generations, it's a testament to the depth of our connection.

Constant Growth: We're great listeners. Your feedback is pivotal in our evolution. We're dedicated to enhancing our services continually. Our team stays abreast of trends, dedicating themselves to refining your salon experience. Your investment ensures an ever-improving journey towards self-care.

We offer customized pricing for nail art designs based on their complexity. For a simple design on two nails, prices start at $6. For more complex designs, please send us a text message with a photo of the design, and we'll provide you with a personalized price quote.

We have an extensive and ever-expanding collection of colors. Presently, we provide over 600 lacquer colors, 1000 gel polish colors, 300 Japanese gel polish colors, and 600 dipping powder colors.

Although we're known for our hand-painted designs, we also offer a variety of decals and charms that can either complement a hand-painted design or help you create a unique design of your own.

We offer gift cards for any occasion and in any desired amount. You can purchase a gift card by either visiting our salon or by logging into your account.

Nail enhancements and products don't cause damage to your nails. However, improper application or removal can destroy your natural nails. Properly removing nail enhancements requires gentle care and adequate time. To ensure the safety and health of your nails, we set aside ample time to carefully and gently remove gel polish (30min), dip powder (30min), Gel-X (30min), acrylic (45min), and hard gel (60min). Your real nails should look this healthy immediately after removal.

Read on to learn more about maintaining perfect natural nails. We're committed to keeping our clients informed about all aspects of nail care, so we created a blog to provide helpful tips and facts and dispel old myths.

Although it's possible, we choose not to provide rushed services. Unlike many other nail salons that prioritize profits over quality, BeautyBar places emphasis on delivering exceptional work and establishing genuine connections with our clients. We allow ample time for our services to guarantee superior results and will never compromise our values for the sake of expediency or financial gain.

BeautyBar has been in operation since 2015. Our team of experts has over 80 years of collective experience in providing top-notch services in nail care, hair removal, and facial skin care. While experience is a valuable asset, we don't rely on it alone. We're constantly exploring and incorporating new trends and products to offer our clients added value.
