    Gel Manicure (2021)
    Jordan A.

    I'm updating my review because of the customer service. They definitely treat this place more like a business and all you are to them is a paying customer. I don't know what happened within the past year but they consistently overbook which causes people with appointments to not be seen until typically after their appointment. I am a regular at nail bar and absolutely love going to Mey because she's very sweet and attentive. Whoever the lady is who sits in the first chair on the left (maybe the owner) is very dismissive. Mey has been out of town for a little so I asked to see a different nail tech. My appointment was at 2:30. Full disclosure, I had to change my appointment from 1:30 to 2:30 very last minute which is my fault, however the woman on the phone said this was fine and that they could take me at 2:30. I arrived early around 2:00 so they could soak off my nails to try to save them time. I didn't expect to be seen until 2:30 which is fine. When I walked in the (maybe owner) said you're early and he's not going to take you right now, which I already knew. I asked about 10 minutes later when she was less busy if I could just sit and soak my nails. I have dip so they just soak in a bowl of acetone. She said "sit there" and that was it. I was sitting next to the nail tech that was scheduled to do my nails at 2:30. It was then 2:50, the nail tech already started working on a new person's nails and I was ignored the whole time. I also never even got my nails soaked off. I don't usually do this, but I just walked out and left because I felt this was an extremely rude way to treat a customer whether they are consistent clients or brand new. I ended up going to Top Nails which is up the block from Nail Bar. They were just as busy and they took me instantly. They were very warm and kind and accommodating. Their prices are also the same and my nails came out great. If you're being disrespected just go to Top Nails. They're very underrated but have a mix of older and young well trained experienced staff. They have way more color options and will do everything they can to accommodate you quickly. They also are very cleanly.

    I made an appointment but arrived early and noticed that there were a lot of people walking in, so I decided to check-in so that they could choose to take me early. They moved me to a chair at 2 pm, when my appointment was supposed to start, but then I was left soaking the gel on my nails for 40 minutes. Everyone had cleared out and new people were coming in when I finally got someone's attention. He sent a new person over and my manicure began. I think Gene did my nails, and while he did a very nice job and I would be happy to have him do my nails again, I would only recommend coming here if you aren't in a hurry.

    Second time coming to the Nail Bar. First time was an okay experience. Second time I stepped it up and asked for nail art. Well she (nail tech college student's name that I unfortunately did not learn) did AMAZING! I came in with an idea and picture... and she blew me out of the water. Definitely going back to her for more nail art. She was also super sweet so major plus. Good luck nail tech college student's name that I unfortunately did not learn!

    The store is very clean and beautifully decorated and the employees seem friendly and polite. Prices in my opinion were very reasonable. They do often seem to be in a rush when the place gets a bit packed. During COVID times, I'm a bit surprised they sat individuals so close together without any guard or glass in between, so maybe not the best place to be if you're very COVID conscious. I had SNS done for the first time and it was done so beautifully! However, I suffered 2 cuts (I'll spare you the bloody images), one minor one on the bottom edge of my thumb cuticle and the other about an cm long cut across the side of my index finger. It was very painful (especially since the nail polish and powder manage to seep it before I noticed the cuts) and I'm not too sure the individual who did my nails either ignored or just did not see it? I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as it was small. I'm hoping that's just my experience. I would recommend this place otherwise. Make an appointment early in the morning if you can. I found it wasn't as busy on weekdays around 9:30.

    I love this Nail salon. I usually don't write reviews, however, after going here for the past two years and being impressed every time, I am going to include some pictures of some of their work. It usually costs me around 100 dollars (including tip). Thank you Blacksburg nail bar!! Everyone here is super talented and welcoming!

    Got dip powder with tips and they did an amazing job! very focused on making sure the nail shape was right and smooth the price was also not bad at all for a full set!!

    So the times I've been there before, I haven't been entirely satisfied. I'm very particular when it comes to my nails, and I'm overall skeptical of the concept of SNS. I needed a quick full set for an event I have this week, and Nail Bar got me right! As always, the shop is super clean and has great customer service. The boy who did my nails, Ryan, was very kind & very professional!! He also did a great job, was very meticulous about the shape and overall look of my nails!! Safe to say I'm an official happy customer **Also, ignore the little cut on my thumb in the photo uploaded, I just don't know how to dice a tomato properly. UPDATE: so his name is actually Bryan/Brian. I evidently can't hear properly either

    I wanted to update my review to say I have switched exclusively to SNS polish and every manicure I have gotten from them with SNS has been amazing. I have gotten it a couple time from other places but this one exclusively has had the best results overall and lasts the longest.

    I had an excellent experience here, with Henry and the amazing front desk staff. I'm picky with my nails, and was reluctant to try this place out. But, I'm so happy I did. Henry is a perfectionist and super talented. Side note - they have a nice polish selection.

    Pretty good nail place but I feel like they're always busy! (Which is good for them but just always feels packed in there as the customer). I made an appointment today for pedicure, gel manicure and eyebrow waxing. I am currently waiting for my eyebrow wax, had the pedicure and manicure both done within an hour. They seem like they're rushing but they do a good job. Just kinda so so about this place Update: no clue why but my fingernail polish has faded???? Very confused. I got the same color on my fingers and toes. And although yes they're chipping and in rough shape there should be no reason for this differential in color??? They most definitely were both OPI strawberry margarita. Ridiculous. I think it's because they rushed me through the manicure. They didn't leave my hand under the light long enough maybe? Don't mess with this place honestly

    Not bad. Today was my first time visiting the Nail Bar. I was a bit skeptical based on the mixed reviews. But, overall, I was pleased and would return. Although it looked "packed", my wait wasn't long. The place is nice and clean. I observed technicians changing the pedicure bowl covers each time someone left. My technician was very friendly. Today was my day OFF, so I didn't engage in any banter with him! The massage chair has me dozing! He probably thought I was mean, but I was just relaxing! He spent a sufficient amount of time on my mani and pedi. I particularly liked the time spent cutting my cuticles. He was helpful in providing info on nail maintenance. He did try to upsell me to get gel polish; but since I don't know too much about that, I passed. Plus, it was an additional $10. The only reason why I'm not giving 5 stars is because, as good as my technician was, he COUGHED ALOT!!! I'm OCD and it just got on my nerves! With my feet and hands in his hands, he couldn't cover his coughs. So they irked me tremendously. I think he should have excused himself, got some water and returned. I always like to know prices of new places, so I've uploaded pictures of their menu.

I…read morewas waiting a half hour at Nail Bar in Blacksburg past my appointment time until I was even remotely acknowledged which was really frustrating since I'm a regular client there. I just got up and left. Top Nails is right up the block from Nail Bar and I walked in at 2:55 and was warmly greeted. I was nervous they wouldn't take me since it was a Saturday which is usually a busy day. I was sitting down in a chair in 2 minutes and they immediately attended to me. The workers there are very friendly and welcoming. Although they also seemed busy they gladly did my nails. Jenny did a really great job and was very speedy. I was in and out within an hour and my nails look great! (Side note my cuticles look bad because I pick at them, not because of the nail tech). They also have a much wider color selection than most nail places I've been to. The prices at Top Nails are just about the same as they are at Nail Bar so if you're being ignored there go to Top Nails. I think Top Nails is easily underrated and over looked. The nail techs are very experienced and do really great work and the place is very clean. I especially appreciated that the lady who greeted me kindly asked me to wash my hands prior to getting my nails done. I feel like this isn't done often and made me feel better when getting dip done since the containers are often shared and reused. I will probably go back to Nail Bar when my usual nail tech comes back because she is very friendly and I love going to her and she always makes sure to have me in a chair at the time of my appointment. But I wanted to write this review because I really had a great experience. If you're looking for a good nail spot check out this place I highly recommend it!
