Highly recommend! I found this salon because they were offering a special on keratin & now I'm a forever customer. Lauren gave me a great cut & keratin. It was obvious she cared very much about the outcome & that I was happy. The woman at the front desk couldn't be nicer. It's just a wonderful, warm, caring atmosphere with great customer service & great service! read more

I was in the area for a wedding and wanted a blow out. Everyone was friendly and they did a great job. I would go back when in OC.

I've had my hair colored here on three occasions! Every time I leave feeling BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! Shawn & Fredy do a great job coloring--sally is wonderful and the rest of the staff here are caring and courteous too! I've had a manicure & pedicure here before also. I loved how sally took the extra care needed to help me fix my cuticles up and the polish lasted me awhile. read more

horrible experience! Both the cut and highlights I received were terrible. My hair had orange streaks. Stylist said "after a few washes it will be ok". Beware. Don't go read more

This past weekend I got a pedicure with Freddy. It was the best pedicure that I have ever had!!! I am so happy that I found him. I'm only sorry that I don't live in the same city and won't be able to go back for awhile. If you ever need a mani/pedi be sure to treat yourself with one from Freddy at Abella. He is amazing Sherry Feldman read more

One of the best massages I've ever had. I was very impressed. I'm in OC for vacation and pulled a muscle in my shoulder. Found this salon/spa on Yelp and am SO happy I went. When I called for more information the woman (Lauren) was extremely nice and helped me set up an appointment with a therapeutic massage for the same day. I arrived a few minutes before my scheduled appointment time and was helped immediately. Linda - my massage therapist - was amazing! She listened to what areas were hurting and with the use of heating pads, oils and techniques...was able to help my shoulder feel a lot better. Plus she was super sweet and made me feel very comfortable. Obviously I was really impressed with A Bella. It's a clean, friendly and welcoming place to be. If you are in OC and find yourself needing a massage...definitely check this place out! read more

I've gone to soooo many different places for massages in the past, and this is by far my favorite. I only came here because I had an unused spa finder gift card and I'm so grateful I did!

We found A Bella through looking at the amazing reviews online. After Dominique was done w/ both of us, we were more than thrilled with our new looks! Thank you Dominique!! You have years of knowledge and professionalism! We are definitely coming back!! T and J read more

I brought my daughter for a cut at the beginning of November. Five months later and it still looks like she got it cut yesterday (just longer). We will be back at the end of the month and I'm booking appointments for both of us this time. I'll definitely be going back whenever I'm in town. read more

While on vacation in ocean city I decided to treat myself to a facial. I began my research via google.There weren't many sites that gave a promising impression in my opinion. But I kept coming back to Bella Salon. They had the best website but no reviews that made me confident enough to book immediately. I booked at Bella and I was so happy that I did. The receptionist was so inviting, as well as anyone who walked by always asking if I needed anything. I had a basic facial and Rosemary was Amazing! She took the time to personalize my facial & with no pressure gave me my options that would best meet my needs. My skin was radiant when I left. I ended my appointment with Lauren who gave me a wonderful pedicure & shellac manicure( which I highly recommend) Thank You Bella. read more

I know when I get a good massage and I know when I get a bad massage and I got an AWESOME massage there from Noel and she did an AMAZING job!!!!! She asked me what I needed worked on most and about how much pressure I wanted - she even checked to make sure I liked the amount of pressure on my body. She could tell that one side of my back was way more out of sync then the other side and worked out the knots. She did an amazing job and I am soooo thankful I went here! She even went over in time to make sure I got a great massage! Noel is the best! read more

I took my daughter in to get her bangs highlighted and was quoted $4 a foil. The hairdresser said it would take about six foils. Although I thought this was a bit excessive for bangs, I agreed. Well her hair came out orange so the hairdresser had to rebleach it. I have not had this problem in the past as a hairdresser from another salon highlighted her hair beautifully. I was charged $49 for a one inch bang highlight - more then double what I was quoted. Apparently you have to pay when the hairdresser cannot do her job properly. Absolutely disgusted! read more

Always a wonderful experience at A Bella Salon and Spas!

Danielle is a consummate professional. My cut and color are always exactly what I am looking for. So happy to find a great artist to taken care of my locks. read more

Manis and Pedis anyone? What a treat it was to have both here! I visited the shore with one of my best friends along with her daughter in honor of her birthday. We went to get manicures and pedicures...and I must tell you that in all my years I had never before had a pedicure---I have always been a little self-conscious about my feet, y'know what I mean? Anyway, what a fool I was before today! I was honored to indulge in such pampering. I was fortunate to have "Sally," who was just really wonderful and funny, transform my toes and fingers into sheer beauty. Professional, relaxing, excellent service. Check it out! read more

If you are looking for a place to get a great massage in Ocean City, NJ you have to book your appointment with Noel here at the A Bella Salon at 9th and Wesley in Ocean City, NJ. Noel has a very unique ability to sense where you are hurting and uses ancient Chinese techniques to massage your aches and paines away. Her schooling is from a school in Vale, CO and her teacher was a Master Chinese therapist where his teachings were passed down many generations. She does a lot of "Pressure point" techniques such as accu-pressure on the feet. She can work as deep as you want. I have been going for massages for over 30 years and at this point in my life I go at least twice a month. I wish I had someone in my home town that was this good. I highly recommend Noel and hope that one day she resides in Las Vegas, NV so that I can feel no pain for the rest of my life. read more

I've only had nails done here, so can't vouch for the hair services. But I've been very pleased with Shawn who has done my nails from the beginning. I guess I started coming last Spring, after never having had a manicure or pedicure in my six decades plus of life. Now I'm hooked. Nails have never looked better. I've always felt I've had his full attention -- even when he is 'rushed' with other appointments, I never feel he is in a hurry with me -- he is just efficient. And color combinations are endless -- let him talk you into something outside your comfort zone! Highly recommend. read more

My daughter and I both booked whole-body massages and foot reflexology during a February weekend getaway. My massage therapist was cordial and experienced, but my massage was not particularly relaxing largely because of the distracting musak playing in the background. The best part frankly was the hot towels laid on my back before the massage. My daughter's experience was worse - her massage therapist appeared to have had no experience whatsoever. Definitely DO NOT GO TO THIS SPA FOR REFLEXOLOGY. My massage therapist said she'd learned reflexology "at massage school", but reflexology is not just a foot massage. The person working on my daughter was so inept at reflexology that my daughter asked her to stop and just go ahead and focus on her back and shoulders. Disappointing. read more

I treated my husband and I to a couples massage for his 60th birthday. Wasn't sure if he would love it, but knew I probably would...well, we both loved it and we both thought it was the BEST massage either one of us has ever had! really, it was that good and ended up being a memorable celebratory moment in his 60th birthday milestone. Everyone was so nice, the place was lovely. Couldn't be happier! Thanks, Abella. Mr. And Mrs. G read more

Our extended family, ages 10 to 100, have been coming here twice a year for 3 years for haircuts, massages, pedis/manis and more. It's a favorite ritual. Edy, at the front desk, treats you like family and will do whatever she must to take care of you and make sure you are comfortable. She is a jewel. Lauren is a very careful and detailed stylist who does not cut corners like other stylists can with your hair. We love Sally, the owner, who hires such wonderful people! Sally knows how to make her guests feels valued and will jump through hoops to make sure everyone is satisfied and taken care of. Thank you, Stephanie, for a generous and wonderful pedi today! We loved spending our afternoon with you and look forward to seeing you on Labor Day! read more

I was there a year ago for a brazilian and I left with burns, despite asking for the heat to be turned down. I am also fairly convinced that they were double dipping. I am down in Ocean City again and was looking for another salon but wanted to make sure that no one else gets the awful experience I had here. read more

I have had my haircut there several times now. Great, confident beauticians. Very hospitality oriented My daughter had her hair colored there as well. Best ever. read more

Schedule a mini pedicure for my daughter and I. Unbeknownst to me, they gave us what they consider a full pedicure - light pinching & rubbing the legs (not massaging), and charged for a full. They did a poor job at cleaning the skin around the nails, and they got polish on the skin of several toes. And all the while the technicians were constantly interrupted by co-workers. Looking at my feet you would never know I just had a pedicure!! read more

Just got back from an impromptu visit to this salon. From the minute I entered the door I knew it was going to be special. I was immediately greeted and asked if they could hang up my coat for me. The technician sorry I know am going to misspell her name Sophoin was wonderful. She was very attentive. The pedicure/ manicure was amazing. I learned so much about nail and hand care. During the treatments several staff members came to check to see if I needed anything to drink. I had the chance to check out the massage and facial rooms and can not wait to return in the very near future. read more

I absolutely love this salon! I go there all the time to get my hair cut and eyebrows waxed. The salon is very professional looking and the staff is so nice. The staff greeted me with kindness when I walked in and made me feel so welcome in their salon. They had wonderful customer service that they offered me water and coffee when I was waiting for my services. When I went to go get my haircut they did exact what I asked them to do and it looked great afterwards! I would recommend this salon to my friends, families, and colleagues any day. Wonderful for a gift card too! read more

Worst pedicure I have ever had. I just recently having a child thought, oh how nice Ill get a pedicure at a spa. Hence the name. They seated me in a chair with a tub of hot water. The nail tech put the cuticle remover on my toes put never cut the cuticle. She filed my entire toe but never actually filed down the points she cut into my toe nails when she trimmed my toe nail. There was no nice sequence to the pedicure she cut, filed and scrubbed on foot then the other, and man handles my ankles while scrubbing my heels. I intended to get a french pedicure but but after being so disappointed I just got a color. After all this she seated me at a hair cutting chair to dry my toes. Then they proceed to drain the dirty water into the same bucket they used to fill my pedicure bath in and dumped it into the sink they use to wash your hair. Needless to say I will never return to this salon! read more

I got a pedicure at this salon and it was absolutely horrible. I payed $40, which is almost $20 more than a pedicure in an average nail salon, so I was expecting much better. There was barely any massage, and the workers and managers were sitting around me talking so I couldn't even relax. This salon was terrible and I will never go back. read more

This is the WORST hair salon I think i've ever gone to. The service I received by my stylist was absolutely horrible. Let me begin by saying that the front desk girl was nice, however the niceties stopped there. My stylist calls me over, doesn't introduce herself, sits me down, and asks me what I want. Well, I brought a picture and thought that it would be a good guideline for her but the first thing she said was that she probably wasn't going to be able to get it exact but she would try. This clearly didn't instill any confidence in me and I got a little nervous. She then starts clipping me in a rushed fashion, missing bits and pieces here and there. After this, she takes me to the wash bowl, doesn't use a towel under my nec k (maybe to save on the wash) and gives me a 4-second wash that was barely a wash. Im not even sure why she bothered because all she managed to do was get me wet. She then starts using these BLUNT scissors on my hair and is done within minutes. After this, she doesn't even style my hair and sends me on my way. I thought the entire experience was hair-raising (no pun intended) but the worst part of the whole thing is that when you go to their website, it looks pretty professional. However, unfortunately it is not. So I decided to send an email and received an email in response defending her actions and using phrases like, "she did this because of this" and, "she said this because of that," which was weird to me because the person writing the email in response wasn't even there. Basically, if you don't like your cut here, you wont be able to do anything about it and they will be rude to you. So, if you want a high-end cut, be sure to try AVEDA on Asbury or ELLEVEN at the corner shopping center of West and 11th. read more
