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.

We truly value your appointments with us and want to ensure that every guest has the opportunity to experience the exceptional service we take pride in providing. Clear communication is essential in this process. When you inform us in advance of any changes to your appointment, it allows our team to adjust their schedules and offer your time slot to guests who may be waiting for an opening.

This not only helps us maintain a smooth and efficient operation but also ensures that everyone who comes through our doors receives the attention and care they deserve. By giving us 24 hours' notice, you help us optimize our resources and maintain the high standard of service that our guests expect and appreciate.

Our cancellation policy is designed with this in mind:

-If you provide at least 24 hours' notice before your scheduled appointment, no charges will apply.

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.

Absolutely! We’re delighted to offer special salon packages tailored just for you. Dive into our Mani/Pedi/Facial packages for a truly pampering experience that rejuvenates from head to toe. Looking for something more? Our 6-packs and 12-packs of your favorite services like manicures come with great discounts, making it easier for you to enjoy more of what you love. For more details on our packages and to see the full range of options, please visit our Packs page.

Absolutely! We encourage our team to speak in the language they’re most comfortable with when chatting with each other. When they do, they’re usually talking about life, friends, and family; just like anyone would in a warm and welcoming workplace. We love fostering personal connections, and that includes our team feeling at home while they work.

That said, we understand that guests may wonder if they’re being talked about. Rest assured, that’s simply not who we are; kindness, respect, and inclusion guide everything we do, both personally and professionally. When engaging with guests, we ask our team to use English (unless the client prefers another language) to ensure clear communication. If you ever feel unsure or curious, just ask; we’re happy to include you in the conversation!

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:

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 online or by either visiting our salon.

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 guests 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 guests. 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 100 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.
