    Nicely done manicure, but don't expect to pay the prices advertised on the website. I came in expecting to pay $15 (the whole reason I decided to try this place instead of my normal spot) and was told at the very end of my manicure that it was $20. For a regular manicure!!! In a not fancy salon with a meh polish selection. Like I said, my manicurist did a nice job but I never want to spend $24 (with tip) for a regular manicure again. I explained this to the manager. Got an insincere apology and she walked away. Was hoping to find a great spot in my neighborhood, but at that I'll keep going to Shaw. Update: in less than a week, all my nails are completely chipped. And not like a baby chip at the tips - like the polish is breaking off in huge chunks. Never again.

    I have been looking for a nail salon closer to the city I had no idea buff nail bar was right on the corner...ok let me start with this salon had SOOOOO many mixed reviews it was had to determine if I should go but the more I read the more I went back to something I always say you can't please everyone and sometimes you have to think about what you're doing....that being said I made a 11 am appointment for today I got there around 10:33 and was Welcomed in by Kevin I told him I had a 11 am appointment and it was my first time he offered to do my nails... He was super fast but all kinds of efficient!!!!! He even gave me a hand massage! You are welcome to a complementary wine water tea or coffee I am more than pleased with my nails! And they have sooooo many colors the shop is neat clean very professional and pleasant they use organic products the coat is about average most folks complain about gel manicure I have never been a fan no matter who does it...it normally peels off this is my new nail salon and Kevin is great! So here we are not a week later and 4 nails are chipped or broken my nails are weak even with the overlay I got my nails done done last Sunday the tip of my left thumb was off Monday morning not sure why but ‍‍

    I've been coming here for a few months and I absolutely love it! It's never overly crowded probably because most people tend to make appointments (without an appointment, you can expect to wait a bit; everyone appears to be in pretty high demand). The facilities are clean and quite peaceful! I personally followed Emma here from another nail salon because frankly, I'd probably follow her anywhere she went! Her attention to detail, her finish (the quality of her polish application) and overall service is just untouchable and unparalleled!

    I am officially a loyal customer. I've been a few times before, but three weeks ago I had the pleasure of getting Emma (affectionately called Shorty by most of her clients) and I will not be going to anyone else. She is such a delight. Please tip her well. She definitely earns it.

    This place was not what I expected. Yes, it was nice on the inside. Yes it is a great location. However, I never realized how important customer service was when it comes to nail care until I got my nails done and didn't really feel acknowledged at any point. I want to put this as respectfully as possible because I don't mean to bash on the establishment. The lady who did my nails was older, different generation, and English may not be her first language. She was kind, and she smiled at me at times. It's not her fault, but I simply can't give 4/5 stars because there were times I simply felt uncomfortable. 1. I was not acknowledged multiple times when I asked questions. (Again it May be a language thing, which I completely understand, but humans can still make eye contact.) 2. There were times I politely asked for my nails to be shaped differently, with no response. 3. Two customers came in while I got my nails done and were offered drinks, I was not. 3. As customers walked in, myself included, there was no greeting or a simple "we will be right with you" or " please sign in. Just ok direction. Which, as someone who has worked in customer service several years-- I can completely understand when times are busy or hectic. But there were 5 workers, and only 3 clients (including myself) it was not busy at all... Anyway, the nail job itself: Was average, ok for the price. Not sure if I'll return. I may give it another try and update my review later.

    I followed my long-time nail technician Emma to Buff Nail Bar and it has been a great experience! The salon can be a bit crowded and tight at times, but the service is always top notch. There is a HUGE selection of colors at Buff Nail Bar - everything from OPI, Essie, mood polish, SNS, and so much more. I honestly have never been to a salon with such a large selection of colors to choose from. I also appreciate the overall cleanliness of the salon. My technician Emma cares about her clients wants and needs and strives to be sure that you are not only happy with how your nails look, but also that your nails are healthy! I've been getting my nails done for almost 20 years and Emma is the BEST technician I've ever had. I can EASILY go 3 weeks in-between visits with no lifting or peeling of my nails. I've never had a technician that cared like she does to make sure it is right and will last. Emma has never attempted to "upsell" me and, in fact, will tell me if I DON'T need something when I ask. I honestly can't say enough good things about her, she is simply AMAZING! Be warned, parking can be hard to locate depending on the time of day. With that being said, there are several side-streets around the area so you can usually find somewhere to park without too much of a walk. This hasn't been enough of a problem for me over the last few months to upset me, though. Go check out Buff Nail Bar, you wont be disappointed!

    Do. Not. Get. Serviced. By. Jennifer. I rated this salon based on the ambience-calm, serene, the customer service-attentive & because the offer a service I've never seen before--SNS (signature nail systems, a mix between acrylic and gel). They offer Vietnamese coffee, organic green tea & organic white or red wine to customers as well. But actual nail service is spotty. Out of the two or three times I've visited, the best time was when the nail tech used two different types of nail polish bonders for my basic mani/pedi.

    I love the zen feel of the salon and the variety of colors that they have for regular polish, gel polish, color acrylic and SNS dip powder. Depending on the day and time that u go it can get crowded. But it doesn't bother me because it's always a good time with my nail tech Emma who've I been rocking with for the past almost 5yrs. now U can always depend on her to give me her honest opinion which I love....she's not interested in just taking my money for something that doesn't look right or make sense, o yeah and her work is amazing. But all in all I would recommend this spot

    I went a few days ago for the first time to get a regular gel manicure. On one finger I had a slightly open maybe half a centimeter long. The nail tech noticed and asked me about the cut casually. He then proceeded to do my nails but did not open a new pack of tools (every nail place I have gone to opens a new sanitized pack of tools before doing nails) and he did not wear gloves while working, which grossed me out because his nails did not look clean or kept and he did not wash his hands before. About two days later I noticed the cut on my finger start to get infected. The skin around my nail and the cut became extremely swollen with the cut turning black. The infection became so sensitive and painful that I had no choice but to go to the doctor who said that he was almost positive the infection was caused by the unsanitary procedures at this nail salon. The doctor also said that this infection could have easily turned into staph or result in the loss of the fingernail. He was truly appalled by the irresponsible and care-free way that the salon handles their sanitation procedures. While the staff is kind and welcoming, I would never trust this place again. Their disregard for simple, common sanitary procedures has now left me with a doctors visit copay, an infected finger, pain, and stress.

    Really love going here to get my pedicures. They have a spa one that is super nice and relaxing and always makes me fall asleep. They always offer wine, candy and my favorite ginger tea. I got my (hand) nails done for the first time here recently (because my usual nail lady was out of town). I got my nails done (I'm very picky) and they fixed things that I wanted different. Emma made sure I left there with a huge smile on my face. My nails turned out so dope. I love the ombré and the shape is perfect. I will definitely be going back! Ask for Emma and you will not be disappointed!!

    Love it here! They're always willing to work with me when I bring in a new design. I do schedule my appointments because they randomly get busy.
