    freehand nail art
    Megan C.

    Amazing nail place. My new go to. Went in for a pedicure and a dip set. The pedicure had awesome massage, and a free drink! The nail artist who did my nails, Angel, was incredible at nail art. The best nail spot in Erie hands down.

    Nails techs didn't disappoint

    My daughter and I went here for the first time and were absolutely in love with the work they did! These nail techs didn't disappoint

    I was nervous to try a new place because I just moved and finding a new nail place can be such a roll of the dice but on my first try I know i found it! they were so nice and friendly, the massage was the BEST i ever had and was so long too! And a warm neck wrap, efficient but so careful and gentle! My nails look amazing thank you!!!

    Cathy is amazing!! She does awesome work. I'm so happy with my natural dip nails

    I've gone to three other salons near this one since I live so close by and this is the one I've had to best experience with and the only one I've gone back to. My favorite tech is Lee, I love that she takes her time and it never feels rushed. Pays great attention to detail and gives great massages.

    Melanie is amazing! She takes her time and is so sweet, I get dip and they're perfect every time. Definitely recommend seeing her at 1st Nail Bar!

    My first visit to 1st. I've called a few times in the past to ask for last-minute availability and they seem to always be busy (I also stink at planning ahead and making appointments - I am who I am). Today though, they had availability so I got in right away for a dip mani. COVID precautions: I was asked to sanitize my hands first thing, we both wore masks the entire time, and they still had plexi up between nail techs and customers at every station. The two nail salons I've been to recently had these precautions at one point during the pandemic but seem to have since gone by the wayside. Glad to see that 1st still does it all. However (and ultimately the reason for my 4 stars instead of 5), I remain disappointed in the number of salons that no longer sanitize/package tools separately - 1st does not. Generally speaking though, it's a very clean, bright, calm environment. Cathy was my technician and she was fabulous! Attention to detail, a pleasure to talk to - efficient and timely. I will absolutely ask for her next time I go! Lastly, they were $5 less expensive than the two other places I've been to for the same service which I'm hyped about. Thank you for a great experience today - looking forward to returning in 2-3 weeks!!!

    Another great service received at the 1st Nail Bar! I had a wonderfully relaxing pedicure two weeks ago. And tonight Melanie did my nails and I couldn't be happier! The salon is exceptionally clean and well cared for. The staff goes above and beyond. All the ladies are terrific, a great addition to Erie!

    Found them on YELP... (couldn't decide which of the 3 salons to go to in the same parking lot!) so…read moreI called and they had time to fit me & my daughter in, me for a mani & pedi & her just a mani. So we got there.. not too busy. This nail salon is large with plenty of tables for techs & clients. The lady at the front desk seemed to be better than everyone, no nice greeting or smile, just "yes?" So we pick out our colors & then we are escorted to where our mani's are going to happen... the lady at the front desk, says your deck will be with you in a moment, to me. My daughter is already getting started.. there are 3 tables in a row & maybe 10 rows. We were put on the very first row right next to the front desk, then another client comes in & all 3 of us are crammed into this space that was not easy to get in or out of without knocking each other! And the chairs are huge, don't go in very far or move back any... there are 2 empty rows in between us & the other texh with A client in the 4th row.. we were all soooo close, almost touching elbows! My tech arrives & gets started, then all of a sudden, she says something, I can't understand or hear, except for $60 for a new set..?! She then starts taking off my tips & trimming my nails way down too close to my nail beds, kinda hurt! My daughter looks at me & I'm like, I don't know! She takes a nail tip & is removing my tips, all the while I'm thinking & feeling like she's gonna take the entire nail off! The front lady is doing the 3rd lady's nails next to her, and then shows her how to cut my nail so she can get under the tip to remove better. (My other hand has already been Pulled off!) so I have no idea why she had to put on new tips.? My nails had grown under so she could have just applied the acrylic over, but instead chopped down every one of them, except my pinky which had no nail, and added tips! (Sometimes I wonder if they know that the more they charge me for my service, means that the tip isn't going to be as good! I go to the salon with a set amount in mind & so with a budget, it's either service or tip! And I know that sounds horrible, but these days! Come on now! Everyone that works there has a Lexus!! I don't drive a Lexus!!) so back to it... it was a strange not really welcoming experience & I'm sure that next time, we'll try the other salon across the street. There's a 50/50 chance I may or may not come back... customer service is very important to me, especially from an owner or manager & I feel like this didn't happen. Also communication... letting people know what's going on why this is happening & so on and so forth... I hope someone finds this helpful & I wish everyone respect & happiness!! Take care! P.S. pedi was a basic pedi & it was SUPER! She did a fantastic job & even though it was quick, she was very gentle & did a super job! Thank you!

    Quality of service is often lacking. Attention to detail as it relates to a dip manicure is often…read morelacking; poorly filed nails, no attention to cuticles unless I ask (need for cuticle care is evident). I've come back to the salon three times for the same broken nail; each time the tech insists the break is the polish only. So, I've returned for the fourth time and now I've been asked to come back in 90 minutes or make an appointment. I will not be returning; hard to justify the time/value tradeoff.
