Go to this place! ‍ Everything felt like it was supposed to. They even had these things that held my feet up (see)while they work in it which was VERY IMPORTANT. At other places you have to hold your feet up like a bad yoga pose lol yoga They were nice and kind from the moment I walked in. They weren't pushy to upsell and educated me on the difference in products because I thought it was just fluff lol As a man it was also important because they took plenty of time and attention to my "Man feet lol I found my new pedicure place! read more

1st Bella Nails and Spa - This thing was a life saver. It made it so u don't have to do work while I get a pedi! - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

While the salon appears to be clean the service is poor. It took over 2hours for a regular manicure and pedicure. The man that gave me my pedicure must have just gotten out of school. He did not know what he was doing. He would go back and forth and did not follow proper procedure of a standard pedicure. My daughter then went in to get her gel taken off and was left with jagged cut nails. No file or buffing. Not worth the prices. read more

I loved my nails, Annie did an amazing job and I really enjoyed the service here. I will most definitely be coming here again to do my nails

I am sorry to say I'm done coming to this salon.. There's always a rush to get my nails done or miscommunication on what I want because I get stuck with someone that doesn't know much English. This time around I got a French gel manicure. On one nail I asked if she could make the white tip a little larger so it doesn't grow out too fast . She definitely looked annoyed said OK, but kept wiping white gel off, so I just said okay to everything because I was already uncomfortable.. for $40 I would Atleast like even white tips and smooth edges. I'm so annoyed I spent money on this.. read more

We made appointments for 9:30 in the morning for manicure and pedicure. I had my pedicure, which was a good experience. While my feet were resting in paraffin, the nail tech started on my manicure which consisted of her asking me to reach over and put my fingers Into a bowl of plain water. She then took one hand out, commented that I had cut my nails. I told her well they were getting too long, so I cut them. She then took one hand, cut a little bit of the cuticle. then she did the same with the other hand. In the meantime would appear to be a regular customer of hers who had an appointment came in for a full set. She then took my second hand and cut a couple of the cuticles off. And then she told me I could sit there and wait. She went over and took care of her customer that was having a full set. My companion was done with her pedicure and manicure, and I was left there still sitting never having a complete manicure no filing of my nails no complete cutting of my cuticles no cuticles softener no soaking my fingers after the cuticle softener was placed as there wasn't any placed. And she called that a manicure. Needless to say, I complained to the owner and was not charged but yet I came to the shop for a pedicure and manicure. I had a 9:30 AM appointment and I left without a manicure. This was my go to shop when I lived in Bradenton for 3 1/2 years. I did not see any of the same people there I believe it to be under different ownership. The owner was very apologetic though I do have to say an offer to have somebody finish a real manicure for me but at that time I was too pissed off and left. I will not be returning to there. read more

Unfortunately, they have very old nail polish, produced black marks on tip and the owner when you bring it to their attention gets loud and embarrassing. They do not know how to address customer service concerns and blames customers for their terrible, old nail polish. Also, very dirty there over the last several months I've been noticing and disappointed. Time to find a new place. read more

Bella Nails and Spa provides excellent service and courteous, professional staff. The best quality work in Bradenton.

I have been a customer since 2018 and I have always gotten great service. They have always treated me fairly with any problems encountered.

I made a same day appointment for, both, a full set & pedicure. They did an amazing job! I'm so happy with how they turned out. read more

Went to Bella nails on Sunday. Got there at 525 pm. Website states they close at 6. No one was inside and a lady opened the door to let the last client out as I was approaching the door. She looked at me and said we are closed. I wanted a simple manicure . read more

1st Bella Nails and Spa - Please change your website to reflect your practice - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

I had gone here and gotten two dip manicures and regular pedicures. The third time I went: I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. The third day after, one of my nails split WAY down. I went in to have it fixed. 3 days after that, two more of my nails split, again, way down. I decided this wasn't for me and went in to have them remove the gel and do a regular manicure which was HORRIBLE. She didn't even get all of the gel polish off my nails! I will NEVER go back. read more

There are some nail stylists, just like hairstylists, or any other artisan--- that you will follow to the edge of the earth. My one such person is named Ia, and I have followed her over to Bella Nails. Sometimes extremely talented individuals and creative geniuses are hidden away in small towns for various reasons; whether it is family obligations, modesty, or just simply avoiding stress and looking for a more simple life. I do not know, and it is really none of my business, why Ia chooses to stay in Bradenton when she could easily bask in the lights of New York City. However, I am extremely and genuinely grateful that she is conveniently located in Bradenton, available for an appointment, and willing to be creative at a decent price at Bella Nails. Also, this is the first time that I have seen a nail salon run like a well-oiled machine by the head manager, Rose. She is like a manicuring cyborg genius, wearing a headset and directing the entire team while doing nails at the same time. She is the master of social media, and keeps the business going strong with excellent customer service. No wonder Bella has been voted best nail salon two years in a row. The interesting thing is; even with such a great staff, clean salon, and service--- the prices are very low and you are not rushed through your appointment. This is also the first nail salon that I have ever been to that has a receptionist! Now don't crowd the place, ok? read more

0 stars!!, the worst pedicure ever!!!! The nail polish was bad, the lady had a horrible attitude. read more

These photos are just a few of the sets I've gotten and they never disappoint read more

SCAMS CUSTOMERS! I called prior, to check procedures & prices, given Covid guidelines. They said $15 for a regular manicure. When I paid, not only was it $20 for a REGULAR manicure, the woman who did my mother's nails, painted ugly flowers on her nails, without asking. (She thought it was complimentary.) Then they charged me over $25....just for her! My regular manicure lasted exactly 1.5 days, then it chipped & fell off. (I was not doing anything strenuous either.) When I asked why they overcharged & added unnecessary flowers without asking, they shrugged their shoulders & vaguely said "oh. sorry". No offer to adjust price, or acknowledge they did anything wrong! WILL NOT GO BACK. You don't treat customers this way. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY AT THIS PLACE! read more

Great place ! Clean, friendly and they got my daughter and I in on a Friday night! We went into 3 other places nearby and this is by far the nicest and cleanest place we walked into. I certainly recommend Bella's ! They even have water and wine ! read more

Quite happy with the dip nails I received from Stephanie with Bella Nails. Top quality job with exceptional attention to detail. No snags. No rough spots. Perfect shaping. Very gentle. My fingers arent glued to the underside. Pleasant & efficient... this is how I define a perfect manicure. I would recommend this nail tech to my mother or anyone else who is looking for a top quality manicure. Keep up the first class work, Stephanie! read more

I came here yesterday for a full set. I made a reservation, they were busy so I waited about 15 minutes. The staff were friendly. The nail polish selection could use some improvement. I was also a bit disappointed because my manicure is slightly uneven between my two hands, usually they check to make sure both hands match. Long story short, not bad, but I've had better. read more

1st Bella Nails and Spa - Full set, regular polish, $30 - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

It seems rather hard to find a place in Bradenton that does threading instead of waxing, but Bella Nails does. I looked at their deals online, and was hoping to get their One & Only Bella Signature Package -- European Facial, Signature Pedicure, Shellac manicure, and eyebrow wax or threading -- but unfortunately they were booked up for facials and wouldn't be able to do it that day. I appreciated the honesty and set an appointment for 4pm for a mani/pedi. The atmosphere was cheerful and bright, with many women seated getting pedicures and chatting, and regulars were clearly recognized as they came in, which is always a plus -- there was a mother and daughter who had clearly been there often and were greeted happily. I wound up getting my nails done by Rose, the owner/manager, I believe. She was very good, very happy to chat about anything, and teased her employees like good friends would. The manicure was well-done, the hand and arm massage very relaxing and my skin felt really good after it. I'm always wary of doing bright red polish, but this has stayed as vivid as the day it was painted on, and hasn't cracked or chipped at all. Given how much I abuse my hands by baking, fishing, and other such things, this is a miracle. The manicure deserves four stars, as the only thing that bothered me a little was the divergences into Vietnamese conversation. The pedicure was really comfortable: the water was hot but not painfully so, the chair comfy, and the lady who did the pedicure (not Rose) gave a lovely leg and foot massage that left me relaxed and with my feet smelling pretty. There were a few things that weren't great here, though: it was hard to communicate with the lady (which, not really either of our faults there), and she didn't clean up around the edges of the paint all that well. That said, the service was really good: for example, the girl next to me found the polish she'd selected turned more brown than she'd wanted when it dried, and the lady doing her pedicure didn't mind changing it halfway through. There was no sense of being rushed anywhere, either. This held true for the threading. The lady doing the threading wasn't as good at it as I'm used to (or maybe I'm just spoiled?), as there were a lot of broken threads and the occasional finger-in-eyeball, but she wasn't rushed, and she was thorough. Just the discomfort of the occasional bit of skin getting caught in the thread as well as the hair, and the eyeball-pressure (she didn't have me stretching the skin or holding it still for her) was awkward and a little more painful than I'd have liked. Still, it was an overall-positive experience, just with a few bumps in the road. To sum it up: Depending on who you get, the customer service ranges from 5-star to 2-star. The manicure was great, the pedicure a little less so, and the threading not so hot but at least thorough. The place is very busy, but doesn't rush you. The employees are mostly Vietnamese, so occasional side-conversations in Vietnamese can be annoying, but it's overall a pretty good place. read more

I have lived all over the country and this is my favorite salon ever. I get pedicures and manicures done by Eva. She is gentle, sweet, personable and talented. You really can't find a better place! The salon is clean, on time and everyone is professional. They also do amazing acrylics here! My favorite nail salon hands down. read more

This was going to be my first pedicure in Florida. I looked at reviews and websites and landed on this one. I saw on the website they had Sunday hours and made an appointment for 1:00 pm. Shortly thereafter, I received a confirmation email saying all was good. I left my house only for this appointment so when I parked an walked up to a dark and empty storefront, I was pretty livid. A handmade sign on the door said due to COVID, no more Sunday hours. I get that establishments need to change things during this time and I am happy to be flexible, but there is NO reason I can find acceptable to not make the change on your website and appointment calendar. Now after reading additional reviews, I won't try again. And by the way, I emailed them yesterday to tell them about my experience. No apologetic email or phone call. Moving on to find a more reputable salon. read more

If I could give 0 Stars I would. Horrible experience...this was my gel manicure right after I left. LITERALLY seconds after. Can't believe my nail technician thought this looked even half decent. AND this was after I asked him to fix 3 things (paint on my skin, rough edges in my nails, etc)...so ugly and unprofessional. Will not be back and definitely not recommending. Also he was on his phone the entire time. He was more worried about his phone than my nails, clearly. If I didn't have to get back to work I definitely would have stayed to complain and get it fixed. read more

We have been visiting this nail salon yearly for the past 6 years, every time we are in the area on vacation. We have never had a bad experience. The nail attendants are courteous, very knowledgeable and are great artists. They speak English and know what they are doing. See their Facebook page for hundreds of pictures of their designs. Kim did my nails and Julie did my toe nails. They also provide waxing, eye lash extensions, and brow threading. read more

The woman who started doing my daughter's nails had never obviously done dipped nails before because they had to be redone not once but TWICE. The second time by another nail technician. They tried to say it was a "color" problem- NO it was an UNTRAINED technician problem. My daughter has always gone here but we will not be back. And she had picked out a light purple shade but ended up with a color closer to black that she was suppose to be happy about. In a school environment you would pay $20 for someone to "learn" on your nails and perhaps have three hours to just hang out in a salon. The fact they still charged $45 for her nails is not only poor customer service but the fact that they allowed an untrained tech to do the manicure in the first place is a joke. read more

I would give it more stars but if I call In and make an appointment I'm expected to get in within 5-10 min. Waited 30+ min for an manicurist major sad face. Manicure itself is really good.. Just not very professional when it comes to time read more

Tiffany is the best! My nails are always flawless. I am very picky and she does the best job I've ever had. I started doing the powder and they look so beautiful I get so many compliments on them. She checks every nail to make sure they're perfectly shaped! She is such a talented young lady. Very artistic as well when I want to do something different she has great ideas. Always look forward to seeing her! read more

7/14/17 Took Stephanie and Brianna for pedicures. The girls came here last year when we were on vacation as well. Everything was nice and pleasant. In fact one of the stylist was singing with every song on the radio, and they said he was very good too!!! read more

I recently got a pedicure here. This was the most uncomfortable pedicure that I've ever gotten. The staff were bizarre and made me as well as my friend uncomfortable. They were singing and super goofy while giving the pedicures. The lady that did mine, missed many parts of my nails. I should have checked before I walked out, but didn't. They lady seemed more interested in what was going on in the shop than actually giving me a good pedicure. read more

Went to this salon as a walk in. The salon was very clean. I had a manicure and pedicure by David. It was by far the worst I have ever had. I informed the mgmt very discreetly that I was not pleased. The owner thanked me for bringing it to her attention. He completed my pedicure in 15 min. and my manicure in 5 min. I could have done better myself. I was charged $35. I did not leave him a tip. read more

I love this salon so much!! Amazing service!! Their very clean with their services and quick, also very consistent. They tend to your needs whenever your looking for some great nails or an amazing relaxing massage. read more

Best nail salon in Bradenton. 45 min of massaged feet and legs while siting in a massaging chair, the only thing better is it only cost $25. I take my Mom, my friends as often as possible even though the pedi's are good enough to last a month. read more

I just left Bella's Nails without any services. Earlier today, I made an appointment earlier for 4:00. I arrived 5 minutes before my appointment and the receptionist told me to pick out my colors. I quickly picked my colors amd sat down. Five people walked in without an appointment and began their services promply. I was told it will be awhile. I walked out and now I'm at a new salon who promptly began my long list of services. Bella's Nail just lost a loyal customer to their competition across the street. read more

First visit. Was a bit concerned when I arrived as no one really acknowledged me. But once seated Candy did an excellent pedicure. Will be back before I head home to Michigan. read more

I go here whenever I'm in town visiting my mother, and usually its great. But today was a big turn off. It was crowded, and it felt like there were shortcuts all around. They sat me in a chair, and stuck my feet in cold water, and then no one came to work on me for half an hour. Unpleasant. I asked for a spa mani-pedi, and they forgot that I wanted the spa and the mani! I realized this, but decided to just continue with a plain pedi, as I had already been waiting so long. When I come here, I'm treating myself after a long day at a nursing home. I'll choose a different place next time, because this is not the experience I desire. read more

I was able to walk right in and have one of the best pedicures in a real long time. I wish I lived in Florida, I would come here every time!!! Everyone was so friendly too!!! read more

I've been here at least 5 times now and have always had a great experience. I just walk in and am able to be helped right away. The salon is very clean, and the staff is very friendly and pleasant. They are more than happy to create special nail designs from a photo or an idea, and are experts at the craft. They also have an album of nail art on their Facebook page as well as their Pinterest account. Truly a wonderful place to be pampered. read more
