This was my second time visiting. My nail technician Christie did an amazing job on my nails -- she was detail-oriented, professional, and made sure everything looked perfect. My brother's nail technician, Phoebe, was also wonderful and did an excellent job.The little hand-painted cat paw prints are absolutely adorable, and my chrome nails are so shiny they look like little light bulbs! We're all completely obsessed with them. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Everyone was friendly and attentive, and they even provided sparkling water, which was such a thoughtful touch. We both love our nails and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!
I had been a client here for about a year and previously had good experiences with the service itself. I always arrived on time, tipped consistently, and was reasonable during appointments. I communicated my preferences politely and trusted the technician's recommendations. This appointment was with a technician I had only recently started seeing. During the appointment, I mentioned that chrome has tended to lift on me in the past. The technician reassured me that she would make sure it would not happen. After this visit, I tried to book another appointment via text but was informed that I would no longer be able to book with them and that they may not be the best fit for the style and level of detail I was looking for. This was unexpected, as I had never expressed dissatisfaction with their work, argued over services, requested refunds, or asked for reworks. I was also never made aware of any concerns during previous appointments and did not experience any issues at the time of service. I have even referred others during my time as a client. I would have appreciated being informed during the appointment if there were any concerns regarding fit or expectations, rather than finding out abruptly when I needed another appointment. This felt disappointing given my prior experience as a regular client over the past year. UPDATE: Since posting this review, the chrome has begun lifting despite my having specifically mentioned concerns about chrome longevity during the appointment.
This review is for Stephanie! Although I asked for a simple design (pink chrome on natural nails), she really took her time to make sure every step of the procedure was done perfectly. It's been almost two weeks since I got them done, and they are still holding very well with no issue and I love looking at them every time! Will return 100%.
I went to get my nails done with Phoebe for the first time and she was amazing! Her attention to detail and gentle hand created just the nails I was going for. It was my first time getting a gel overlay on my natural nails and she made them look amazing. She explained everything in detail and even made sure I understood what I was going to pay for before she started. She is great at asking questions and making sure you are comfortable. I definitely recommend having Phoebe as your nail tech:) As for the shop, it was clean and comfortable. As soon as I walked in, one of the sweet ladies offered me a drink and made sure I was seen as soon as possible. I will definitely be coming back!
Look at that nail retention! 5 1/2 weeks of my gelx nails never breaking up with my natural nails! I'm very cautious with who I allow to work on my natural nails because of previous bad experiences. My intuition was telling me that Gelly Bar is the nail salon to go to and as well as their art work. Look! I was right! I'm happy to have made that appointment with Christie! Christie was precise and caring. Throughout my appointment and every step, she asked for my opinion and critiques. I sincerely appreciate her. Not to mention, she made me feel comfortable and provided me with a beverage.
Updated Review: Due to my previous review, Phoebe from Gelly Bar Nail Studio had reached out apologizing for the negative experience I had when I had gotten my nails done. I was unaware that they offer a 10-day guarantee for any nail set and if I had known, I would have definitely gone back and got my nails retouched. Due to the length of time; instead she had offered me a free gel manicure with a cat eye design as a makeup service or a $50 refund. I went ahead and accepted the refund as their nail salon is a little bit far from me, but I truly appreciated her kind gesture. It really seems that they care for each and every one of their customers considering that they did their best to makeup for my negative experience. I really did appreciate Phoebe reaching out to me as it shows her professionalism and care for the business. Due to their customer service, I'm sure one day I'll definitely give Gelly Bar Nail Studio a second try when I'm out in their direction! Again, I truly did love my design and it came out super cute so I'd love to have similar nails again. :)
I randomly found Gelly Bar on yelp and I could not be happier! This is hands down the best nail salon I've ever been to! Amy was so thorough and meticulous with my nails. I could really tell she cared about how the nails looked and how comfortable I was! Everyone in the salon was so polite and it was very comfortable (great ac and they had a movie playing!) I highly recommend this place! I will definitely be coming back :^)
I honestly wish I could give more than five stars! I've been coming to this nail salon for about 4-5 visits now and it's been a great experience every single time. Coco is go-to, and she is absolutely amazing. She is patient , incredibly talented and takes so much pride in her work. I usually show her pics and she gets it spot on without missing a detail. Her attention to detail is next level. I always get Gel-X extensions, and they last me a solid 4 to 5 weeks honestly, they'd probably last even longer if I didn't come in for a fresh set! That kind of longevity says a lot about the quality of her work and the products that they use. The salon itself is clean, quiet and super relaxing. They usually have a movie playing, which I really appreciate such a nice little touch that makes the whole experience even better. Compared to other salons that can be always near chaotic, this one is calm and peaceful, which makes all the difference. All the ladies there seem to do amazing work from what I've seen, and everyone is always really friendly and welcoming. Bonus points for the location it's in a plaza with tons of parking so getting in and out is always easy. I highly, highly recommend Gelly Bar Nail Studio if you're looking for top tier nails in a quiet and professional setting.
My go to nails place hands down. I've moved back and forth from IE, LA, and OC and will travel to Phoebe no matter what. She really is an artist and great business owner who cares about the quality she puts out. Highly highly recommend for anyone who's looking to grow their natural nails or just anyone else who loves a good gel x manicure.
This is what i got from Stephanie Zhang yesterday！I'm absolutely in love with my new manicure！With Halloween right around the corner，i knew i needed a color that was festive and chic，and i decided on a gorgeous pumpkin orange. Let me tell you， it was the perfect choice！ Stephanie did an incredible job！If you are looking for a manicure that seamlessly blend with your usual style, you need to see Stephanie Zhang！！！ Amazing shade！
I was able to make an appointment to fix the lifting and Phoebe did a great job addressing my concerns. I haven't had any other issues since and have gotten so many compliments on my nail. Definitely interested in trying them again and hopefully no issues the second time. I really liked their designs and the store was very clean.
It's my second time coming here and I'm even happier than the first time. This time, Phoebe was my artist and she is really good! I had a detailed design and she did an amazing job. She's very skilled and knows many techniques! Phoebe put a lot of thought into my design and she made so many beautiful, small details. These are my favorite nails I have had in years!!! She's also very caring and considerate of the customer + very patient. My camera can't capture all the details and just how pretty they are :( They look like an art piece. I have tried many nail salons in cali and I think this is the best one. I will only come here in the future and I recommend other people to give it a try too. I am very very happy and I showed my mom the design too, she also liked it

This is the only nail salon that I go to in SoCal! I've been to many other nail salons but the artists at Gelly Bar are so talented and prices are very reasonable. Because this nail salon is so popular, make sure to book at least 3-4 weeks in advance, especially if you want a weekend time slot (no walk-ins). A deposit is required to book an appointment and that amount goes toward the final cost. Phoebe is my go-to artist and she always makes sure that I'm comfortable throughout the process. I've asked her to do my nails for almost 6 months now. Recently, I asked her to do my wedding nails and I love how elegant they turned out! They lasted for almost 1 month and no chipping/lifting at all. I would highly recommend this nail salon to anyone! read more

I came here because my friend paid for my birthday nails and I already go to this spot to get my lashes done (different company but same building). I got Phoebe and it was the best nail salon experience I've EVER had. I got a chrome hearts vibe design. Very gentle, attentive, communicative, and they took their time to make sure you really loved your nails. I highly recommend going here!!! I will definitely be back for special occasions. Worth every penny. Thank you!!! read more

Great experience! I made an appointment online and sent a deposit. The day of my appointment I was texted with a video of instructions on how to get to the studio. I arrived and was greeted with sparkling water. It was quiet but there was a tv with an ongoing show that kept me entertained. I showed a picture of what I wanted done. I was informed of the price before she proceeded to paint my nails. I love the result, great experience. Pricey, but best technique on the nail design I've had thus far! read more

My search for a great nail tech is FINALLY over!! Eva is SOO good at what she does! Everything was to my (picky) level of satisfaction. She is very detailed with her work, as you can see the finished product is beautiful. I don't usually get my nails done because I am very picky and thorough with how nails are done. Eva did a fantastic job during the whole process, from the way she cut, filed and shaped my nails to the way gel is applied (if you don't know how to apply polish well your nail shape can end up looking ugly...) 100% would go back all the time read more

Absolutely adorable!! I love how my ombre shimmer sakura nails turned out! Thank you Coco! One of my nails chipped last week, so I got one extension on it and you can't even tell which one it is! I also love that they massage your hand at the end. I felt very pampered! Thanks so much again! read more

I needed my nails done and pretty for my wedding and Gelly Bar came through! Coco did my nails for my appointment and she did an amazing job. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she did exactly that and better :) Overall communication and services were excellent. They were upfront on their prices. They also make you feel pampered with the offer of a beverage at the beginning and hand massage at the end of the appointment. In addition, I really like the environment they provide. It's more low key and quiet, and super clean and cozy. I like that they only have 3 appointments at a time so there aren't too many clients all at once. The ladies (Coco, Eva, & Phoebe) really take the time to do their job and are attentive to details. I'm not one who usually do nails, but next time I have a special event, I'll be back for sure :) Their portfolio is worth checking out! read more

My first time here because a friend recommended this place I got my nails done by Eva she ended up stabbing my cuticles not once but twice my fingers are still swollen from being cut and it was very painful. I asked for French tip but she made the French tip too thick. I got charged $124 for this too UPDATE: Although I was disappointed during my first visit, I appreciate Phoebe reaching out to me shortly to apologize and offered to fix my nails. Phoebe said she has a time restriction since her next client coming soon so I settled with a simple design instead and without a fill in for the grow out of my nail. She shaved off the old design and painted a single color cat eye on top of the old gel. I'm glad that Phoebe reached out to me because not many businesses care about their customers. read more

I am so glad that I found Phoebe on Instagram!! I've been getting Japanese gel nail done for more than 10 years. Because my previous nail lady don't do nails anymore and I tried a few nail ladies until I found Phoebe. I only had Phoebe did my nails for twice and I already became her fan. She is very patient, and dedicated during our appointment, also she is very easy to talk with. And her studio is very clean and cute. Make me feel very relax when getting my nails done. I can say nothing negative about Phoebe and her studio. I highly recommend you come to her studio if you like or want to try Japanese gel nails. You will not regret it! read more

Go Coco!!! I had my gel x set done by Coco today and she is AMAZING. She was very delicate - I had other mail artists often cut me but Coco was gentle and really crafted her work. Her designs are also amazing and she did a really great job on my nails. I can tell she uses quality long lasting products and I didn't feel rushed one bit. It was great to be in a boutique environment than a big salon where it is less personalized. I 10/10 recommend going to Gelly Nail Bar! I even drove 40 minutes to see her. read more

Fanfan is amazing when she did my nails. She's a perfectionist!!There are no words to express how I love the nails!!!! I got my nails done before the day I went to Las Vegas getting my marriage certificate. I've waited a couple of weeks to write this review. Typically when I get my nails done at other nail salons my nails only last about a week before they start to lift or chip off . I've had the same nails here for two weeks already and it still looks great! I think my nails will last me at least a month. read more

I decided to get my nails done for a change since I always paint my own but I wanted something more special and this place really accomplished that for me. Phoebe was my nail tech and I absolutely love her!!! She is very cordial and sweet and veryyy accommodating to you making sure you are comfortable and like what you're getting. Covid precautions are still in place and everything she does is very clean. It feels like my friend is doing my nails as we chat because Phoebe is very kind and easy to talk to. I am looking forward to seeing her again for future nail appointments! read more

Normally, I do my own nails because I have a mini UV light machine and a couple colors at home. But I decided to treat myself before my upcoming engagement photoshoot. And I'm so glad that I did because Phoebe is a true nail artist!! She responded quickly to any questions that I had. She's attentive, kind, and creative. I felt pampered and safe because she adheres to all of the safety guidelines. I also appreciated her input especially with picking the right color and design. I can't wait to show them off! read more
