I'm currently growing out my nails, so I requested he keep the length while shaping and filing. He nailed it (pun intended)! The results were exactly what I wanted. I love my nails and highly recommend this salon! + my best friend also loved her pedicure + sanai, the receptionist (sorry if I spelled it wrong) helped me pick out my color and was really friendly

I visited the Nail Bar for the first time and I have no complaints…read more I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and I was surprised that it wasn't crowded. I went in for a pedicure and they took me right back. I didn't have much time and needed just the basic pedicure. The ambiance was very nice, the entire place was clean... even the bathroom! The lady that did my toes was quiet but friendly. It was a bit too warm in the shop so I asked if they could adjust the temp and they did with no hesitation. I will definitely return.

It's always pleasant and very calm. The chairs are massage chairs while you are getting your pedicures done. They are very meticulous and very good at what they do. They clean, massage, hot towel, and everything. It was always such a nice experience going here, i always feel relaxed and very comfortable.

They were also very apologetic, kind, and eager to repair the relationship. This is why I'm giving I'm updating review! It's so rare to see a personal care service business so attentive to their customers and so enthusiastic to address and resolve any concerns! Also, want to add that this was my FIRST time ever having an issue or concern after being a consistent customer for several months.

Terrible experience! The nail tech just started ripping off my previous gel manicure instead of…read moretaking it off properly, damaging my nail beds and breaking one of my nails. (I started getting gel manicures to grow out my natural nails.) And to "fix" it he put on a nail tip--this nail now does not match my natural nails at all. There was zero disregard for precision. Glue and gel got cured to my skin in so many places--contact dermatitis is a serious concern! The tech also did not do the cat eye effect properly--looks nothing like a cat eye. The tech also cut my finger while filing my nails (about 1cm long)! There also was no apology for anything, not for breaking my nail, not for cutting my finger. Needless to say, this experience makes me never want to return. I cried the entire drive home--I paid $55 to get my nail broken, nail beds damaged, finger cut, and nails I'm not happy with. I just got engaged and I got a fresh set to go along with showing my extended family my engagement ring this weekend. Very disappointing!

After living in the neighborhood for almost 2.5 years, I finally tried out Bliss with one of my…read morefriends. We booked an appointment ahead of time for 4 pm on a Sunday. When we got there, we were greeted by the receptionist, and it was relatively empty in there. We had both booked for gel nails and then picked out our colors. Their prices were more than what was indicated online, so it was $40 for gel and then an additional $15 for catseye polish (note they do not have the magnets for designs, so it's just plain catseye). This was done on our natural nails. My experience went relatively smoothly and very quickly. I had Tina, who completed within 20 minutes of starting, but I'm thinking that may not have been a good thing. My gel nails usually last for 2 weeks or so without chipping or peeling off, but these were chipping by day 5 and about a week in, one had peeled so badly that my nail snapped in half. My friend was not started on til i was almost done. Her nail tech switched halfway through as well, and another nail tech came by and made rude remarks about her hands twice, saying that the nail design she wanted would look ugly on her. The nail polish needed another color to help it show up the way it looked on the display/bottle, and there was a lot of back and forth trying to get that right. In the end, they were able to figure out a way to get it to look right, but that added an extra 40 minutes to her nails. The receptionist was great and helped advocate for her to get the correct shade. I like the convenience of having a nail salon within walking distance, but I think I'll stick with my usual unless these things change. It's not worth the money for early chipping and rude remarks.

This is my second time at this location. My nail tech relocated to this area. I had lost contact…read morewith her and she used to work at the Odenton location. She sent me a text of her new location. I'm glad she did. I always loved the way she did my nails. She's very creative with designs. If I show her a picture she will make it happen. I love this particular design and had to display it. I normally make my appointments on a weekday because weekends can become very crowded. They also take walk ins. Not sure how long the wait would be. They also have parking available on the front and backside of the building. I definitely will be returning to check out their pedicure services as well.

I rarely get a chance to sit in Victoria's chair because she's always so busy, but I received a blessing on Saturday. Victoria Is fast, efficient, and GOODT! I had powder on my nails and I wasn't a fan of it because they were so thick last time. She showed me what it should look like on her own nails and suggested we do it since I was about to go on maternity leave and needed something that would last at least a month. She made my nails look fab! I also got a pedi. When I tell you she is fast AND she's thorough--- she gets dead skin, under toe nail carnage and paints beautifully. I have absolutely no complaints. If you want great service, a little bit of conversation and efficiency, Victoria is your girl! All hail Queen Victoria!!!!
