    Gel mani with heart design
    Grace L.

    I absolutely love this place! Minh is incredible and Sam who I believe runs the store is always so kind and accommodating. I have only been twice for a regular gel mani, and I will absolutely continue to keep coming. The store is bright and there's always fun music playing. Can't recommend this place enough! I will also mention they have punch cards for returning customers! I forgot to get mine this go around but make sure to ask!

    Customer of 2 years now! Look no further for mani/ pedis. Where do I begin.... Sigh, lol. I am one of those girls that is never happy with my nails. I'm born and raised in the South Bay and have spent what feels like all of my tween, teenage, early adult, and now adulthood years looking for a nail technician that satisfies. I don't mean to be picky, but it's just REALLY hard to find a place that consistently does a quality job and doesn't make me feel difficult as a customer for just wanting nails that aren't crooked, filled in completely to my cuticle, doesn't lift/ crack/ chip, AND are pretty! Well, Chao Nail Bar makes me feel like a friend and a sister. Sam is my technician for my manicures, Minh for my pedicures, and Tullia always books my appointments for me. Minh sometimes also does my manicures and she is also fabulous. I go to Sam 99% of the time and she is such a professional. Her eye for detail is insane and she really loves what she does. Sam, Tullia and I often collaborate on ideas together. I send them my inspo via Instagram DMs before my appointment and they never disappoint. In the beginning, when I asked for a newer more complicated style, Sam practiced prior to my appointment to make sure she could do it for me :') The ambiance is humble and simple, and is often filled with ladies chatting with eachother that makes for a very positive environment. It's not too uppity, it's just right, and the prices fairly reflect this. I love Chao nail bar! Since I've started going here, I think about 4-5 acquaintances of mine have also gotten their nails done with Sam and they love it too. The pictures attached are just a few of my favorites. Thank you Sam, Tullia and Minh!! -CC

    purple cat eye nails !

    back once again ! i am still very happy with the service and work here. the ladies are very very sweet and lana did an amazing job on my cat eye/ hard gel manicure. i pick at my hands often- and every time she worked on those fingers she did so so delicately and would apologize profusely and wonder if she hurt me (she didn't ! she was wonderful) i felt so bad once again that i came in after work and stayed right until closing, but lana and the owner (i believe her name is sam) continued to smile and treat me and another customer with care and patience. would still recommend. thanks for your awesome help and work

    I got a mani and pedi! 10/10 DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. Amazing service-so kind and genuine! They really take their time and make sure that your experience is top quality. Everything is spotless and clean. The staff is incredibly friendly and kind! I just moved here and I will definitely be calling this place home for future mani and pedis.

    My daughter and friends got their nails done!
    Sharon T.

    I had the best experience here. I recently took my young daughter and a few of her friends to get their nails done. All the nail technicians were so patient and accommodating to the girls. I was really appreciative and super impressed!! And what a beautiful job they did on the girls' nails!

    Blue and white gel overlay

    Requested gel builder overlay with nail art. Minh did an amazing job, she made it look easy! These are by far the nicest nails I have ever had. The quality of the art was spot on.

    Winter set!

Only 2 minutes from my home (extra plus) Michelle Made me feel comfortable and appointment went by soo quick during our convo. Reception area is always soo friendly and inviting. Love the late appointments especially when working late.

    Just got off the phone with Beach Please. Buckle up. Michelle, who is amazing, was in a car…read moreaccident and will be out for a while. I tried to make an appointment and it showed she had nothing available. I texted the salon and they explained she was hurt and would be out for a while. Then I get a text that MEGAN had an appointment at 11:30 today. I thought about it for a while and decided I would take it. That was around 3 or 4, yesterday. Early the next morning, I realized I had training at work and couldn't make it. I texted and said I needed to reschedule. OMG! I was inundated with calls and text messages saying I owed $25 for not giving 24 hours notice for cancellation. Hold the phone. I made the reservation less than 24 hours ago and I'm NOT your client. So you're saying, I owe $25 if I cancel for ANY reason because of the time I MADE the appointment?!!! I spoke the receptionist and went round and round. Bottom line, my waxer is injured, her colleague is putting the screws on me and I will go somewhere else to get my coochie waxed. TF? I'm responding to your response, If I made my appointment less than 24 hours before your cancellation time frame, then I'm screwed if anything comes up, correct? Michelle, this is ridiculous. She is likely ruining your practice. WTH? Megan, are you serious? Y'all reached out to ME! I never even thought of booking with you. Someone texted me. Wow. In this economy with gas at $6.89 a gallon, bikini waxing is a luxury. Do better. Michelle, praying for your speedy recovery. Bless your heart . Again, it appears you're doubling down. Megan, I initially wanted to reschedule, simple. Not now. Michelle, I'm so sorry this is happening. Just wow. I hope Megan is on TikTok, because a video is coming. Peace .
