Crystal did a wonderful job on my dip nails. She is very detail oriented, thorough, and friendly. I have been getting my nails done by her for 2 years now. Ann did my gel pedicure and I. Plant be more happy. She doesn't rush, and makes sure everything is perfect. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. They are by far the nicest, kindest, most professional and courteous nail salon I've been to. For financial reasons, I needed to get the builder gel and toenail gel removed. I was heartbroken, but Nikki and Joann did a phenomenal job and were so sweet and gentle. We never see pictures of what your nails look like after gel removal as well as what the condition of your nails is. Honestly, I was worried my nails would look unhealthy and frayed. They are not. They are smooth and not lacking moisture. I am forever thankful to this team at Bare Nail Bar and will be back when I can afford it. Also, I previously said they were pricy. This is incorrect. In fact for the service they provided, I would've paid more. Grateful to you, BNB! read more

The best nail artist is Kris!!! She first did my nails about a year ago, but couldn't remember her name to request for her service again when I booked my appointment (a few months ago). Someone else attempted to do my nails, but she told me she couldn't do the nail designs I wanted because it was too complicated. Luckily I saw Kris working the same day and I recognized her. She replicated the nails I wanted so easily and even better than the photo. She does SUCH BEAUTIFUL designs and can do intricate 3D art. You can tell she's a perfectionist and really cares. She's also so fast and efficient. A couple weeks ago I was in a rush and I felt so bad, but she was understanding and did my nails so quick. 11/10 service. I highly recommend her if you want to do nail designs. I rarely get my nails done these days, but if I need some nail designs for special occasions, I'll be back just for her. See photos. :) Thank you to Nancy for my lovely pedicure too! This is a lovely, clean salon with great workers. The owner is sweet too. Definitely will be my go to salon. read more

My favorite nail salon! Tony, Mai, and Holly are my favorite nail artists! Beautiful new business. read more

I love the renovations to this place--it feels so chic and luxurious. They're also opening a head spa, which I'm really looking forward to! Lately, I've been having Kris do my nails because she creates the most amazing designs. She's incredibly talented! I also love Nikki--she's wonderful. She's very gentle and always takes extra care because she knows I'm sensitive and nervous about getting my skin nicked. Those two are my go-to nail technicians. For pedicures, I always see Mai. She gives the best massages and is hands-down my favorite! The manager/owner at the front is incredibly friendly and welcoming as well. I highly recommend this place! read more

Bare Nail Bar - Pedicure by Mai - Nail Salons Near Me - Lake Forest, California

I am so glad I found this gem of a place after years of doing my own gel-x nails. Not only is the store absolutely beautiful, but the service is unmatched. From the moment you step in, you're greeted warmly by the owner (Suri) and offered a complimentary drink while you wait. I booked an online appointment with Kris and was blown away by how quickly she was able to replicate the design I wanted! Kris was extremely skilled and has a keen eye to detail. My set turned out so beautifully, I am beyond impressed. I will definitely be making my way back! If you're wondering which salon to try next, don't think twice to give Bare Nail Bar a try - you won't be let down. read more

I've been coming here since April. Nikki has been so helpful with helping me with gel builder on my hands. My nails are naturally short, think and tend to peel and chip far too easily. Perimenopause hasn't helped. thanks to Nikki, my nails are looking long and beautiful. I feel so feminine having nails. This is the best they have ever looked. Everyone on staff has been friendly and attentive. read more

Ask for Crystal! I cannot recommend her highly enough! Every appointment is a wonderful experience from start to finish. She is incredibly talented, detail-oriented, and takes genuine pride in her work. My nails always look flawless, and I constantly receive compliments on them. Beyond her skill, she is professional, friendly, and creates a caring & relaxing atmosphere that makes every visit enjoyable. I'm picky and she takes the time to understand exactly what I want and consistently exceeds my expectations. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about her clients and delivers exceptional results every time, look no further. I'm so grateful to have found her and wouldn't trust anyone else with my nails! read more

Not gate keeping this nail bar, always top of the line polish and service. Their location is beautifully designed and very clean. But what makes this place our go to is the nail technicians. Always on top of the trends and doesn't sacrifice quality ever. Nikki, Mai, and Kris are amazing and never disappoint. Highly recommend, need to make an appointment a week ahead as they get busy. read more

It's always with a bit of hesitation that I try a new salon but glad I stopped by Bare Nail Bar. The owner and front desk staff are friendly from the jump. The space is zen and relaxing. Kris has taken care of my gel manis the past few months. She is sweet/soft spoken, meticulous (necessary for good nail health), and talented in nail design/art. She listens, makes recommendations based on her experience, and never rushes your appointment. Thrilled to find a place close to home that makes me look forward to coming back every month. read more

This review pains me to write because I think the employees are so sweet and the place itself is so cute. I've been to Bare twice now for gel pedicures, and the service itself has been great and very relaxing. Unfortunately, both times I have had complications with the actual gel itself. The first time around I thought I was having an allergic reaction to the polish I chose. The second gel pedicure I got wasn't properly cured, leaving me with wrinkled gel and a painful allergic reaction. Turns out both pedicures weren't properly cured. I've had to push liquid out of the pockets in my pedicure and my toes are non-stop itching. I'm super disappointed as I really wanted to continue coming here, but I think after two under-cured gel pedicures, I won't be returning. read more

I recently visited the salon for a fresh set and had a fantastic experience being serviced by Kris. She was incredibly meticulous and professional, making the whole process feel relaxing and high-end. I decided to go with chrome pastel colors, and the result is stunning--it has that perfect pearly, iridescent glow that catches the light beautifully. The pricing was straightforward: $55 for the gel manicure, plus $15 for the chrome finish and a $5 color selection fee. The quality of Kris's work and the unique look of the chrome made it well worth it. I'll definitely be back! read more

Love my summer nails! I got an oval nail shape with a bright orange gel manicure. Tony did a great job filing my nails short enough but preserving the oval shape. I appreciate that he takes time to make sure the gel color is not too thick or bumpy. Ask for Tony if you have a specific shape in mind. You'll love the results. read more

I really wanted to like this place bc it's new and clean and close to home. But it is unacceptable for a pedicure to be coming off after just 1.5 weeks. Both my daughter and I got our toes done and not only did we have to go back and get hers fixed but they didn't even last 2 weeks. Not sure what kind of cheap polish they're using but you'll have better results at home. Very sloppy and unacceptable work read more

This review is for Kris and Crystal. Kris has been doing my nails for awhile now. She is amazing. She does regular gel, gel builder, deep powder and acrylic nails. She is very gentle and professional. She is detail-oriented, patient, and makes sure my nails look absolutely perfect. I have sensitive skin and get cut very easily. Ever since Kris has been doing my nails, I have not had any cut/reaction. It took awhile until I found someone super gentle. I definitely recommend her. Crystal is also great. She is so sweet. She listens to exactly what I want and makes me feel completely comfortable. You can really tell she cares about her work and clients. The end results are always amazing. I definitely recommend both of these wonderful ladies. The salon is newly renovated. The atmosphere is so upscale. The receptionist is incredibly warm and friendly. read more
