    Cat eye in pretty pink! Love!!
    Jill C.

    Fantastic place to get your nails done. Mine turned out perfect!! Love it!! I got a cats eye in pretty pink. Service was great and fast. Nails are perfect thickness too.

    Tam's gel fill in and Ombre color with green tips! Great job! Nail Bar, Columbia, Md.

    The Nail Bar is a beautiful salon in a modern setting with up to date tools and techniques and tons of polish colors. Tam does my fill ins and gel polish. He is efficient, skilled, professional, and cordial. Everyone is greeted when they enter. Technicians wax my eyebrows and always do a good job. The pedicure chairs are the bomb! The Nail Bar is a must go to for nail care.

    Got a goopy gel manicure with 4 coats color and two coat top coat... spoke up on the fourth and she doubled down because she had missed some spots. Really bad technique and got gel polish on my skin. She tried to upsell me sparkles on my pinky and when I joking said not for me she brushed them off, but you can still see them on my pinky so my $40 gel manicure is effectively ruined for me as I don't like sparkles -along with the heaps of polish on my nails. Was a walk in and decided to come here after the good reviews, but am shocked. She constantly filed my nails and remarked how I could only do round nails due to how short mine were. I have short nails and am someone who gets my nails done a few times a year and don't ask for anything crazy so idk if she thought I was disagreeing with her or what, but weird. Really disappointed especially with how much she filed them down to begin with. I'm moving so won't be able to come back and get them fixed. Feel like the pics don't show how thick they are. Had them removed later that day. Not saying you can't get what you want at this place as other women in the salon looked like they had good experiences, but maybe the tech I got was bad.

    Red French tips!

    Jenny was very friendly and did a great job. However, I would suggest to bring ear buds, for the full relaxation spa experience.

    Tam is my nail technician; I followed him here from his previous location; I'm always satisfied with the way he does my nails.

    Refresh Nail Bar - BIAB, Builder gel in a bottle

    I FINALLY FOUND IT FOLKS!!!…read more I've been going to Refresh Nail Spa since winter 2023, after searching for salons that offer drill-free manicures and focus on natural nail care like IBX treatments. I ended up finding Bernadette, an independent nail tech who works there--and she's been an absolute gem. While she does use a drill (contrary to what I originally searched for), she's incredibly skilled, gentle, and precise--so much so that it never damages my nails. Her technique is both efficient and mindful, striking the perfect balance between machine and hand filing. Initially, I was getting regular gel manicures, but Bernadette truly cares about nail health, and she suggested switching to builder gel (BIAB). It was a game-changer. Builder gel doesn't require soaking off and allows for continuous fills--meaning you can build on top of your last set without compromising nail integrity. Since switching, my nails have grown so long, strong, and healthy, and a single BIAB manicure can last me up to 6 weeks! Beyond nails, Bernadette is a wonderful person--easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and deeply caring. She also specializes in pedicures for clients with diabetes or other health conditions, which speaks volumes about her expertise and sensitivity to clients' unique needs. If you're looking for a thoughtful, health-conscious nail experience, I highly recommend Refresh Nail Spa and Bernadette in particular. My monthly visits have become something I genuinely look forward to.

    **APPOINTMENT ONLY** I have been blessed with Bernadette at…read moreRefresh Nail Bar for over 2 years, and I couldn't be more thankful for her! She is a delight in every way--knowledgeable, gentle, and truly dedicated to her clients. Bernadette goes above and beyond to meet individual needs, making each client feel like a priority in the most sanitary atmosphere. After moving from the West Coast, I wanted to continue using non-toxic products, specifically Light Elegance. Bernadette not only consulted with my previous artists but also went the extra mile to purchase everything I needed to continue my nail care routine seamlessly. Her dry pedicures, which are actually certified medical pedicures, are nothing short of transformative. Her work speaks volumes, and so does she--always professional and attentive. Bernadette is in high demand, and for good reason. If you want to experience top-tier nail care, join the waiting list as she is appointment only. I'm very grateful to have found such a talented and caring nail artist. Highly recommend!
