Ems Nails Bar - Bellingham (WA)

5 /5 Gillian Rea: My mom and I have been going here for 2 years now, best nails in Bellingham!

4 /5 Carly Ney: I have only visited 2-3 times after changing up the previous nail salon I had visited. I liked how the staff and Em takes care of their clients and are gentle and friendly and take their time. I have had good manicures (Acrylic) from them but the last time (3rd visit) after my manicure I started experiencing really bad itching, burning sensation and my cuticles started to peel and weeks ago after Halloween, I have removed them to relieve the itching. It’s contact dermatitis and it’s severe now. Unfortunately I’ll not be getting my nails done by a salon again because this is wild how my fingers have turned out, ultimately just wanting them to heal. I don’t know for sure but it could have been the brushes and chemicals and definitely a reaction to the product (sadly). Good business for anyone else. I’ve now asked my doctor to see if they can prescribe a medication, due to irritation still, and cracks and splits.

5 /5 Ibidunni Ojikutu: Im so glad my friend recommended Ems Nail Bar to me. Ive had nothing but amazing experiences there. I requested Nutcracker nails at my latest appointment, and Em delivered BEYOND my expectations AND the price was beyond reasonable. Ive found my nail studio and wont be going anywhere else.

3 /5 KYLynn S: First time trying this place for a pedicure. Nice salon, nice staff. Unfortunately, I got the new gal. And while I understand everyone must learn, and even voiced that when they apologized for how long it took (1.5hrs.), I would suggest providing more training, especially painting, before having staff work on paying customers. Pro: nice staff, good massage, good focus on cuticles & filing. Cons: how long it took, heels not scrubbed well, the paint job was not good. If I hadn’t had other obligations I had to get to, I would have asked another staff to fix the paint job. For me, a beautiful paint job is top priority! $55+tip. Meh.

5 /5 Jordan Wendland: We love Em’s! I’ve been to a lot of different nail salons in town, and Em’s is far and above my favorite. They are sweet and welcoming, and I can tell that they care a lot about the customer’s experience. They are willing to get creative with nail designs and seem to know a lot about technique and nail health.
