Julie was amazing! Loved my mani & pedi. She paid close attention to detail. I would absolutely come back to her.

Highly recommend SB Nailbar! We bad a group of 6 and the staff were able to accommodate us within 24 hours of our request. They were super nice and did a great job! read more

I requested a gel pedicure. I'm not too sure if the girl was just starting off but it took quite some time for her to get through the whole procedure. On the other hand she did give me a minor cut. The total charge was $51, for a job that was not well done. My right foot looks very messy with the top coat smeared, and my right foot has a top coat on only 4 toes ( with air bubbles) and a cut on my toe, Im sorry but what is this EDIT: I can 100% confirm this was your shop, I have now attached a picture taken at the salon and of my bank statement, this is ridiculous there is no need to lie. read more

I booked an appointment for my friend's Bachelorette party. It was a group of 6 of us. We were out of there in under 2 hours. Staff worked very diligently to attend the whole party. Everyone was happy with their nails. I as well loved the way my nails turned out! (See pics). I would definitely come back here if I'm in the area again. read more

We decided to have a girls day out and get our nails done for my stepdaughters graduation. We came in with no appointment but we're greeted so kindly and sat right away. There was only 3 technicians available for full acrylic sets so my step daughter did have to wait about 15 minutes but I started my mani pedi right away! My two techs Martha & Milly were so kind! Milly did my hands and loved to chat with me about the upcoming graduation and what I do. Martha greeted me with a smile and didn't let up on the foot scrub while I was giggling being super ticklish. The full set was put on by Mai she was so bubbly and experienced. She verified length before she started the main process and made the experience very lovely. We will be back for sure! read more

This is definitely my new favorite spot in Sb. I've had pretty subpar experiences at other nail spots and I've tried a LOT of places. I went to SB Nailbar today and they accommodated me on short notice and even stayed open late to finish my acrylic set I got white gel on my toes (which looks perfect) and white acrylics. I'm obsessed! Everyone is SO nice too and they give you bottled water! Thank you guys!!! Also I'm bad at taking photos so can't do these nails enough Justice! read more

This was by far my favorite nailbar in California. Everything from the great service to the relaxing and well-kept setting to the complimentary wine/mimosas was on point! I ended up with a french manicure gel and regular pedi and loved both. They have quality nail polish that seems to last long. It was also reasonably priced given the nice massage chairs and other perks included in this relaxing experience! My nail technician really took her time, especially with my French manicure and it looks amazing! I really needed it to look professional for a work trip and it's perfect. Pedicure was also really relaxing and turned out great. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing spa experience! read more

My nails took 2 hours and very the wrong color, crooked, and very very thick. They were bleeding when my usual nail tech took them off. This place has messed up my nails 2/2 times. $80 for this Update: it was sb nail bar. I have pics of my nails inside of the salon and screenshots of Venmo charge. Unfortunately I do not recommend their services for any price... read more

This is the worst nail salon that I've ever been to. My daughter got a full set and asked for them to be short and the manicurist said ok but only filed the sides and cut her cuticles. I got a manicure and pedicure that was complete in 20 minutes. The pedicure took 15 min and manicure 5. She was moving so fast that it was stressful. While my daughter got her nails done I noticed that they tell everyone that they have time and they just rush through everyone. And I don't think they used sterilized tools. read more

Made an appointment at 3:30, it is currently 4:45. When I asked nicely what time I could expect to be seated I was told there's nothing they can do. I was beyond understanding and nice and I was met with "we don't have time for you" very rudely. I asked if he could at least apologize and he shook his head and said I won't do that. I was sitting there for over an hour, could've apologized for the wait or even offered water but instead very rudely told to leave in front of everyone. I have come here for over a year and I know they are horrible at time management. This time it was well over an hour and all I asked was what time I could expect to be seated. The guy working front desk was BEYOND rude and I won't be coming back. I will let everyone know not to come here, I have never been treated like this in an establishment. read more

DONT BOTHER! I tried to give them a second chance after putting oil on my wet polish. I called in and spoke to the owner apparently who said sure come in at 7:30p ( they close at 8) I just needed a clear coat. I rush over after work literally ran from the parking lot and made it early I thought. THEY CLOSED EARLY and never even LET ME KNOW?! Audacity. thats just plain rude, sloppy business. No need to waste my time, have some courtesy and respect for others. never again trying this mediocre spot, theyre not that nice or talented. Ive seen their "work" I wouldnt have even considered if my tech was available, thats why Id only get a clear coat here. or would HAVE. read more

I am 8 1/2 months pregnant and picked the "jelly" pedicure ($89 service). The man who did my pedicure was nice, but was not familiar with the service at all. I was mostly looking forward to the 20 min. foot massage, but was really only half that time. He got up multiple times in between and was literally just rubbing the lotion and oil in. I received ZERO pressure. I also received a regular manicure and that was okay. Overall I would not recommend this place. First and last time at this business. read more

Very nice and cozy place. Mai is the sweetest and really good at what she does. I live in LA but I'll definitely make sure to come here for my pedi with Mai! Thank you so much! read more

We had such a great experience at this new nail salon on State. We were looking for a place that could accommodate 6 mani/pedis and found that spot at SB Nailbar. We were given mimosas upon entering and that was just the beginning of a completely relaxing experience. It's very clean inside with brand new chairs. The staff is nice and knowledgeable. I got a gel manicure and it was honestly fantastic. We all walked out of there with beautiful nails. Would highly recommend this new spot. Five stars. read more

First time getting my nails done in sb, let alone this place. Probably one of the worst sets I've ever gotten, even with a picture example. Not to mention I had a 2:30 appointment and was waiting for half an hour. The guy also kept laughing at the small size of my finger nails and got annoyed when the electric filing hurt. If ur trying to find a good place to get your nails done, don't waste your money and go here. read more

Definitely do not recommend coming here. I *paid for* acrylics with gel nail polish for my vacation on 1/10. When I was on my flight the next day, I noticed that the tips of my nails were chipping -- sucks but no biggy. Later that night, my nail polish peeled off in one sheet for ALL of my nails!! This was super disappointing because I still had a week left in my vacation and I had splurged on nails specifically for it -- but again not a huge deal for me at least, just disappointing. I went to the salon the day after I got back from vacation (1/19) and was honestly super nice about the whole thing and just asked to get them repainted. The lady (who was the manager) was a little rude about it but I had pictures to show her how it had just peeled off. She then told me to pick a nail color and I said that I really just wanted French at this point to make it easy. She told me she would have to charge me an extra 10$ for it -- to which I said can you comp me the 10$ since I did not have nails for my vacation and I had to come back ? She was super rude the entire time and even tried to say that the lady who had done my nails was no longer with the salon so it was not their problem. After going back and forth, she finally said she would call the owner and see. She said I would have to come back the next day and make an appointment ( even though she was going to do them right then prior to this conversation ). I came back the next day, and the same woman was the one who did my nails. She honestly did a really sad job for what this salon has put me through already (having to drive 20 minutes each way from Goleta twice!!), and I was just disappointed again. Also, my pinky nail is lifting and she saw this and did not do anything to fix it -- just chipped it off with the nail drill. At this point I didn't say anything because I was just over the entire experience. Definitely take your money elsewhere because it seems they tried to charge me for gel and then give me cheaper polish, and it was a waste of almost 90$ between the service charge and tip :( read more

AVOID!! By far the worst place. Worst experienceS ever as they had me back in for nothing! Unfortunately my regular place wasn't open due to holidays which is why I had to go here as a last result for an upcoming event I had to attend. I got a set of acrylics around 10am by nail tech; Vicky. Seemed like such rushed work. Around 3:30pm I noticed green polish all over my hands. Nails were chipping (bursting bubbles from wet polish) called the location and explained what was happening and asked if I could return to get them fixed, stated they were to busy at the time and couldn't. I understand if they are busy but cmon if it was done correctly I wouldn't have the need to return. I got over it as it was just 2 nails and wasn't to noticeable. Went to work the next morning and the other nails started chipping/bursting with wet polish. This was the next day! Called the location and was told by Sophie that they were busy and that I could go in at 1pm. Explained to the person that I had an event to be at by 2:30. Went at 1pm and was just standing around as the person from the front (reddish/orange hair with glasses) couldn't give me a clear answer. She tried getting a guy named Danny to fix the polish which he refused as he wasn't the original tech, I get that. Vicky started a new set while I was told to return back at 2 at 1:45 after being there for a while. Returned at 2. Now there was another girl at the front arriving who at 2pm said it would be 30 minutes more as Vicky had just started a new set. At that point I left as I had to be at this event and the employees "couldn't do anything." UNACCEPTABLE! Waste of money. Acrylics lasted a week max! Started coming off. Real cheap work. Don't waste your money here. read more

mai is the best nailartist i've ever had and i've been getting my nails done for just about a year now, she was very precise and took her time with every. single. détail. on my nails, not only was she precise but did both square, almond, and french tip nails perfectly. the nails were not too thick and the paint coat was super ever. i've never been more satisfied with a manicure in my life and i'd recommend mai/sb nailbar to anyone looking for a good manicure read more

Came with a friend to get pedicures and had a wild, terrible time. The employees here are so unprofessional and their terrible online reviews and empty responses are now no surprise. My pedicure was fine but my friend's tech was very inexperienced - 90 minutes of the tech repeatedly filing and buffing, creating short jagged nails, scrubbing her feet without water, painting, removing and repainting again and again. Politely at the end of the service we tried to pull someone aside, share the concerns and ask for reasonable resolution. Instead we were confronted by three workers: the tech herself, another person, and the front desk person. Arguing ensued with my friend being accused of having "a lot of cuticle" and "too short nails" and being told we should have told our tech she was bad at her job and requested a new person. This logic is insane; how could anyone know their nail tech was bad until the work was in progress? And who would say to someone: "you are bad at your job, go away." We asked to split the cost of the bad pedicure (50% off) and were offered 5%. We eventually settled on 10% which is the cost of their CC transaction fee (ha) just to end the arguing and confrontation. Bad pedicures happen but bad service is a choice and the way this was handled was very upsetting. We were trying to reach resolution and they were trying to blame and be defensive. In short, if you are a person with perfect feet and an endless supply of cheeks to turn you can come here and it'll be fine. Anyone else, go somewhere else. read more

Very bad service. I called beforehand and was told a low prices and at the end of my service I was charged $140 for a gel pedi/GelX set. I was told that they charge per nail on "French tip" and it took 2 1/2 hours. I do not recommend. read more

Amazing!!!! We enjoyed an outdoor pedicure. Sure, we didn't get to sit in the indoor massage chairs, but, it is Covid time and we all need to get creative and make room for grace and flexibility. My sister and I received hands on superior treatment. We loved the massage with our pedicures. This staff works so hard to take care of their customers. The service is really above and beyond. If you are just dying to give your feet and legs some special treatment, then head on down to SB Nailbar. read more

The nail art is amazing! I have to be honest, their work is very good! But the customer service is horrible and the staff is very mean. I was under the impression that when you go to a business you pay for a service, not the other way around. I do not appreciate that the nail tech was upset about me requesting certain colors. I felt very anxious and uncomfortable during my appointment. I will not come here again. read more

First time going here and let me tell you I was so unhappy. One we had an appointment and was pushed back 30 min and when we got there they couldn't even see us it was one at a time because of walk ins. 2 the guy doing my nails was extremely nice and was take off half way through doing my nails because tourist come in and made me wait till the manager was done with my friend to finish mine. They messed up her nails and when she said something the manager was rude and disrespectful when she finished mine I didn't want to say anything because she didn't care anyways and my Friend end up paying for a design that was never added but since it was removed they charge her like wtf! Also the manager was rude to her own worker the front girl accused her of letting some girls go without paying when the front girl was helping someone and didn't even notice but the manager was there yelling at her in front of everyone . You make a lot of money but you have so many bad reviews to start off with how rude the manager is . read more
